Of the arm and continued up to the
crook of the elbow.
Tho long waist-buckles that gained
such tremendous popularity have al
most disappeared on handsome gowns.
1t was q very pretty fancy at first, but
like every thing else, soon ceased to be
original. Long loops of ribbon have
given place to long ends finished at the
bottom with butterfly bows which
dangle about very coquettishly. Rosettes
sre also in fashion. A belt is finished
with rosette, or the back point of the
corsago is so finished and the scant
drapings of lace costumes arc now
caught up with full rosettes.
Ono of the imported fashions for
early fall is the feather collar which,
whom worn together with IL hat with
plumcs the same color, is particularly
becoming.
The garden fetes now SO popular
give raison d'etrc for all the lovely
gowns which arc too delicate for street
or hotel piazza wear, and yet hardly
evening costumes. For instance, what
could be lovelier for such an occasion
than white India muslin with real
lace insertions worn over a limo green
surah slip, and hat of white crepe
trimmed with sprays of maiden hair?
Silver gray batistc made with an accor-
dion-plaited skirt had bertha of fine
white dotted net that came over the
shoulders and knottcd at the waist. A
gray chip hat trimmed with white and
pink arbutus completed very dainty
costume.
In such a gathering there is generally
one or more brilliant red crowns, and if
worn by Il handsome brunette is not OBJ
jectionablc, except for the trifling con-
seriousness that sho is amazingly CON-
spicuous and probably putting dozen
other women's gowns out of key. I
lately saw q black net gown that had
dots all over of velvet about tho size of
tcn-cent piece. This was draped over
silk slip and trimmed with roscttes of
velvet ribbon. a large, open braid hat
trimmed with French lace or three trc-
mendous pink roses was very becoming
TO the Titan blonde wearer. L. L. 3.

elegant! almost too much so. Black
grenadine toilets arc made up in combi-
nation with tartan surahs which with a
hat 70 match, makes q very pretty cos
tune.
Rufus, collarettes and Corday collars
have reached the zenith OF their popu-
larity. Crepe, gauzo net and lace in all
colors are used. Tho lace ruff or boa
is the most durable for tho street, unless
one can indulge in ostrich feathers at
anywhere between twenty to fifty dol
lars.
The Corday fichu illustrated here is
made of cream crepe lisse, knotted be-
low tho bust.
The extreme OF this fashion is reached
when we hear of flower fichus. A foun-
dation of delicate-tin lisse has bor-
der and fringe of beautiful flowers.
This is very pretty as ball wrap for
a young, pretty face, but we hope it
will never get commoner, when it would
he atrociously vulgar.
Outing gloves have become quite an
institution this summer, and although
they look delicate are easily cleaned If
not allowed to get too much soiled.

gloves and wash on tho hands. Stretch
carefully while drying and they are as

TWO Busy Men.

Two of the busiest men on the floor
OF the House of Representatives are
Tom Cavanaugh, of Vermont, and Ike
Hill, of Ohio. Cavanaugh is the Deputy
Scrgeant-at-Arms, and Ike Hill is the
guardian of tho Democratic caucus.
They have entire charge of pairs. ,"
When Il Republican member desires to
leave the city he notifies Tom Cava-
naugh thai he does not desire any i'm
portant questions to be passed without
having his name upon the record during
his absence. Tom Cavanaugh there
upon consults Ike Hill, who finds some
Democratic member who is willing to
''pair." Both of the parties thereupon
sign q paper to the effect that they are
paired, and deposit it with the clerk of the
House. Whenever any important matter
involving political Importance is before
tho House, at the end of each roll call,
these pairs arc read, and tho Repre-
scntativcs making them go into the
Congressional record. Ike Hill is tall,
slender, nervous man, and very genial,
companionablo gentleman, although he
does chew tobacco. Tom Cavanaugh is
a tall, broad-shouldered, handsome fell
low, and q striking figure upon the floor
of tho House. Ho is very quiet and
dignified, and influential with the NOM
bcrs on both sides of the House. He is
strong, active, ardent Republican,
while Ike Hill is the most rabid kind of

Coifey county farmer, gets down to four
teenthly in what he has believed, favored
and supported, saying
In response 10 popular demand am having
n compendium or my work and votes In the
Senate prepared, from which II Will appear That
am not a new convert, but that have acted In
accordance with the views herein specified long
before they were demanded by any political or
ganlZatlOn,
Among his declarations, he says:
know of no reason why Senators should not
be chosen by u direct vote Of che people.
He never has declared himself In favor
Of electlng United States Senators by a
vote of the people, and he undoubtedly
feels that the voters would never have
elected him to serve them as United
States Senator.
In regard to circulating medium, he
thus puts forth his political views:
have always been in favor Of an addition to
the circulating medium, with proper provisions
for It's stability The present per capita Is about
S23. think n could be safely Increased 10 500.
Does not Mr.. Ingalls, here say that
there is about S1,5OO,OOOOOO Of "circulat-
ing medium?" If he Is in favor Of the
people having over three billions of "cir-
culating medium" he might have intro
duced bull by request that was present
