The market shows rather quiet tone in most
departments of trade. On Wheat and Corn the
market is irregular and fuctuating, with strong
upward tendency TO prices. Corn, car lots, ad-
vanced to 61@62c and in bags 63@64c. Flour is
very strong and higher in sympathy with the
sharp rise in Wheat. Oats have been steady, and
frmer feeling is noticeable, prices indicating an
advance above last weeks quotations. rise of
from 81 to 50 is reported on Middings. Provis-
ions are steady with Lard higher in the West.
Fresh Beef is steady without quotable change;

hams 8, shoulders o@8c, breakfast bacon at 10
@11c, homeless hams 1014c, bologna 51a &c,
tongues at lOEc. Dry Fish are dull and firmly
held at old prices. Mackerel frmer and higher;

are asking 10 20; over 200 bbls have been landed
during the week. Fresh fish are scarce, except
Swordfsh, which is in full supply and lower. Su-
gar is more active and flrmer at unchanged fig
ures. Molasses steady and firm. Butter is doing
better and higher prices are reported for choice
creamery. Eggs steady with good inquiry. New

ing. Very many of the new hats have
narrow ruches of ribbon around the
edges, and others have very fine en-
broidery in Persian colors worked all
around the edges of the felt brims.
These must be done by hand, which
makes them quite expensive, though very
rich. One in this style is illustrated be-
low, and has bow of tinsel crepe and a
bunch Of sumach flowers as trimming.
These will be taken off little later and
whole swarm Of tiny birds will settle
down upon the crown.
Black lace hats give a very soft and
dreamy or demure and yet mischievous
look to the faces they shade. The one
herewith is of black Spanish lace, with
a bunch of shaded yellow primroses and
a tuft of shaded ostrich tips. 1t is bent
down in front as if by the weight of the
primroses, and is very handsome. The
basque which is worn with this is of
black velvet with combination of gold
colored satin, the whole trimmed with
rich beaded passementerie. The full
lace ruff at the throat is one of the new
ways of neck dressing, and this is alike
pretty and becoming. The other two
waists have been illustrated particularly
for the benefit of the young ladies, and
both will be found quite novel; but let
each young lady's dearest friend decide
upon the suitability of the gown with
the "V' shaped front, and then do ex-
actly as she does not tell you.
These large buckles are feature in
trimming. Both of these young ladies'
gowns are in black crystallette, with
garniture of silk embroidered bands in
colors
Belts of metal ribbons will be worn
to a considerable extent, some belted
straight and others fastened to point
in front; but the sash belts with the long
buckle will be the preference for slender
figures.
notice in one of our largest houses
that in making up the beautiful new
gray cheviots they are placing thick
ruchings of the material around the foot
of the dress. These ruchings are cut on
the bias, about three inches wide and the
edges slightly frayed The effect is very
soft and pretty. Silk dresses trimmed
in the same way are seen, as also camel's
hair Some of the silk and etamine cos
tunes have Tuscan yellow straw passe-
menterie bands as trimming. This looks
like gold filagree work laid on over the
material and CLEANS like that metal

A Monster Salmon.
Public Opinion.l

Mr.. Ffennell writes: II had the op
portunity of weighing and measuring in
Mr.. Groves shop in Bond street a re-
markably fine salmon-the finest, in
deed, both as to condition and weight,
which has reached the London market.
When put into the scales it just turned
the weight at sixty three pounds. 1t
was male fish, and measured from tip
of snout to the middle 55 inches, and
round the middle 20 inches. This mon
ster was taken in tail nets at Montrose. "

saw an awfully pretty and stylish
walking dress yesterday, just as it was
about to be sent home from the modiste.
1t was of pale gray silk warp Henrietta,
with a drapery and combination of silk
plaid in gray and blue with narrow lines
of gold color. The style can be seen il
this illustration, and it is finished with
fat silver buttons; there are four narrow
tucks on the Henrietta underskirt. The
dainty little capote is made of the plaid
silk trimmed with a puff of gold en-
broidered crepe lisse. 1t will be noticed
that the silver buttons on the sleeves are
placed on the inside of the forearm.
The other beautiful gown is Just fin
ished for the lovely but unfortunate
Mrs. James G. Blaine, Jr., and is in an
exquisite shade of pale mauve cashmere,
cut in panels under which is an under
skirt in purple faille. The panels are
embroidered in purple chenille, and the
pretty little bonnet is IF hsse trimmed
with lilacs.

Ugly Postage Stamps.

Uncle Sans stamps are just about the
ugliest in the world, because cheapness
is made a great object in their produc-
ton Somewhat over twenty years age
the United States had by far the most
beautiful stamps in existence. This de-
cadence must be regarded as melan-
choly symptom by those who consider
WAT postage stamps as well as coins
should be expressive of a natinn's artistic
development

II has been claimed that Wyoming
women, now being full suffrage citizens
Of tho Union, are entitled to vote any
where. This is mistake. To vote in
any other state they would need to be
citizens of that state, resident within its
limits and subject to its laws. But the
moment they would go out of Wyoming
they would lose the right to vote, since
no other state allows full suffrage to
women. Whether other states will
allow it soon depends much on how the
women OF Wyoming exercise it.
