THE NEW PARASOLS.
They Come in Accordion Plaits and
Other STYLES.


The new parasol is as lovely as a
dream, which by the way is the name
given to one of the novelties shown at a
popular opening. The prettiest para
soils are covered with crepe lisse, shirred,
gathered or puffed on to the frames,
which are first plainly covered with gauze
or boiling cloth. Among the new styles
are rather fiat frames, with deep flounc-
ings of crepe, net, tissue or lace. There
are models covered with fluffy ruches of
crepe lisse and plaitings of very fine
semi-transparent lace, and which, when
closed, are mass of crimps and folds,
but when raised are veritable pillows of
fine fabric, lacking nothing, even to the
foam cresting of fine lace edging with
which the pillows are capped.
There are parasols with accordeon
plaitings covering the frames and falling
over the edges, others with gauze covers
upon which are sewed gauze ribbons,
which are plated in the thin fabric
There are covers of many of the popular
tartans with lace founcings and plaitings,
and black silk with border of gauze
ribbon in stripes of bright colors or in
plaid. There are fower-trimmed para
soils for use with very dressy out-of-door
costumes, or for balcony promenades,
and also those with China silk covers,
with edging of velvet and lace.
There are extraordinary stylish and
pretty covers, made of black tissue or
muslin de sole, others with the most del
icate crepe lisse.
Handles for the finest parasols are of
wood, with Dresden china knobs or those
of oxydized silver. For light colored or
white parasals and for black parasols
ebonized sticks either carved or pol
ished

One thousand one hundred dollars in silver, perfect in every ietail, the only fault being light weight, was also captured by the officers who made the raid at No. 523 Lincoln avenue, East End. In this building the entire party has been living since thier arrival in the city last week. Yesterday five other men were arrested on suspicion and $560 additional bogus silver dollars captured. The United States officials say that the money was not made in Pittsburg, but the gang, all of whom so far captured are Italians, has it's headquarters elsewhere.
 From one of the prisoners the detectives sscertained that the money was made in New York, and that similar gangs were ,ent to other cities to distribute the money The prisoner could not tell what cities were being operated. The clew that led to the discovery of the gang was picked up in a estaurant in Market alley, when two ftalians, accompanied by women said to pc their wives, rendered light weight dollar in payment for refreshments.
 Mazzio Mazzaltina and Alia Robisca, the TWO Italians arrested at the Market alley restaurant, ,and whose arrest led to the capt. are of the others. were given hearing be- lore United States Commissioner McCand- ess yesterday afternoon. Nothing of inn ,ortance was developed at the hearing, and they were committed to jail in default of N, ,OOO each. Two informations were made before Commissioner McCandless against Leonard Matence and Michael Demarino. charged with having in their possession counterfeit money. They are the men, 1t alleged, who brought the sachel con aiming the $1. 100 in counterfeit money to ;he boarding house in the East End. These men will have hearing this afternoon.

A Rochester Mother Who Perished in an
 Effort to Save Them.
 ROCHESTER, N. Y., Dec 27.-In a fire on Orchard street early yesterday morning Mrs. John Dietrich and her three children were burned to death. The family retired about 10 o'clock Thursday night. The mother and three children went to sleep in a small bedroom in the rear part of the house, and the father and a son 15 years of age slept together in the sittingroom. Yesterday morning att o'clock the mother awoke and started fire in the kitchen stove and then returned to bed. In less than an hour the mother was awakened by smoke in her bedroom and rose to find the kitchen in flames. Her screams awoke the father and son, and the boy started out of the house in his night clothes to awake the neighbors. He ran to the house next door and, arousing MT. Mattern, asked him to send in alarms of fire. MT. Mattern ran to the corner of Orchard and Orange streets and gave the alarm.
 It was but little over five minutes before the firemen reached the spot, but before that time Mrs. Dietrich and the three children sleeping with her had perished in the flames. After arousing her husband the mother returned to the bedroom to save her children, but perished with them Until the fire was extinguished it was supposed that Mrs. Dietrich and the children had escaped to some of the neigh bors, but after the water had subdued the flames and the firemen entered the apart ment where she had slept the remains of the mother and three children were found on the bed burned beyond recognition.

Wore . Shirt of Greenbacks.

Edward Treusch, an eccentric old Hebrew street vender of pocketbooks, jackknives, chewing gum and divers small trinkets, dropped dead of heart disease This sudden event brought to light the fact that, although Treusch always had the appearance of poverty and of finding it hard struggle to make both ends meet, he was in reality quite well to do. He had big rolls of money. When the body was taken by the police to Klaner's morgue, on Mon roe street, and the clothing searched it was discovered that he had $4, 900 il, United States bills sewed in the folds of wonderful shirt which he wore. This shirt was of flannel and was made double about the chest and sides. Inside the two folds the old peddler had long carried his carefully concealed wealth. The bills were of various denomina tions, ranging from N to &10O. .-Chica go Herald.

Parnell and the Pr,ests.

DUBLIN, Dec. 36.-Mr. Parnell, In al in terview before leaving this city, said he knew beforehand that the carrying of the Kilkenny election was almost hopeless in view of the character of the opposition that he had to meet. The conduct of the priests, he thought, was very blamable. They brought pressure to bear without which the masses of the people would have voted differently. Had the people been allowed to exercise their own judg- ment without intimidation, they would have sustained MT. Parnell. It was hardly in keeping with the functions of the priesthood to hold over their focks threats of spiritual penalties for the exercise of individual judgment in political matters.
