A WONDER IN BEAD WORK.
The Gift of Signora Angelini to the Fra1
ciscans at Jerusalem.

The Gift of Signora Angelini to the Fran.
ciscans at Jerusalem.
New York Herald.l
The piece of Venetian glass bead work,
| shown only to the favored few who enjoy
the friendship and confidence of the rever-
end commissary of the Holy Land, is the
work of Venetian lady of rank, the Sig
nora Catarina Angelini, who sent it as a
present to the Franciscans at Jerusalem.
From thence it was sent to the Very Rev.
Charles Vissani, commissary of the Holy
Land, residing in New York. 1t is IN by
feet in size, and some idea of the work as
specimen of feminine industry may be
cleaned from the fact that there are in it
], 900, 900 fine glass beads. That means there
were 1,600,0 900 stitches taken to make the
piece 1t took the Signora and two other
ladies, necessarily working on it, two win
ters and one summer to accomplish the
task. The beads are of the kind called
"Margueritine, of that fine glass made in
the manufactures Of Murano, an island of
Venice, to which the glassmakers were
really confined, under pretext of protection,
in the centuries when Venice had the mo-
nopoly of the glass industry Of the world.
Then the glassblower who revealed the
secrets OF MS arts was liable TO nave his
property confscated, with, ,.peThaps, banish-
ment added. And the dreaded Council of
Ten, if it saw fit, might even condemn him
to death.
The ground of the glittering paralello-
gram is pure white. Crystalline, pearly
and opaIine CLEANS of light flash from this
field of white, ON which are thrown, as it
were, five wreaths of exquisitely shaded
roses-red, pink and white-their rich color
enhanced by the green Of their foliage and
a few other flowers, daisies, blue cornfowers
and feathery sprays of mimosa. The largest
wreath, in which are the largest flowers, Is
in the center of the piece. The four other
wreaths are in the corners. A border of
turquoise blue, headed by garland ofroses,
lilies and other flowers, surrounds the piece
A delicate fringe of blue and white beads
edges the border
Given fringe and tassels of red beads it
might serve as baldachino over the throne
of an American cardinal in cathedral as
grand in its proportions as st. Patrick's in
this city or the Cathedral of st. James in
Montreal. When we know that our grand 4
mothers bead bags cost from $5 to $15 we i
may begin to estimate its probable value.

The Prattle of the Spanish

and the cannon The sight all told was the
gayest you will see in a lifetime, and the
people were as merry and good-natured a

millionaire in the balconies as you will find
in any city in Christendom.
President Diaz was one of the leading
Generals in the battle of Puebla, and before
the parade began, he in company with the
most prominent men of the Republic went
to the cemetery of fernando and placed a
wreath on the tomb of General Zaragoss,
This scene was very impressive, the great
men of Mexico stood about the tomb with
uncovered heads and they bowed as the
flowers were laid on the grave. The crowd
about them was also silent and the scene
was full of the solemnity of sorrow. After
1t was over President Diaz returned to the
palace, where he changed his citizens dress
for his uniform and came out in the full
military costume of General of the army,
his breast covered with the silver medals he
has won in his many campaigns. As he
came out of the National Palace, on the
same spot where Cortes stood with Monte
yuma more than 300 years ago, he met his
favorite troops of the Mexican army to the
number OF at least Ii, 600 and with these as
his escort marched to the beautiful park in
the center of the city known as the Ala
media.

day, which action on their part called forth
general approval.
1t is easy to guess what motive was actu-
ating Lew Barker. The fact should not be
lost sight of that on the very day of the
disaster he had intended to confer with
Molly concerning certain business matter,
which was nothing more nor less thana prop
osition for her to loan him certain sum Of
money. But since then the situation had
changed completely. 1t was more than
likely that Barker would, in his capacity as
guardian of the person and estate of his rel
ative, have full control of her property, and
in that case he would be able to provide
himself with funds-illegally, it is true, but
it would enable him to gain time. Kate
had already had a presentment that such
would be his course, and while she rejoiced
at beingable to devote herself wholly to her
cousin, she trembled at the Thought of the
projects which her husband, under cover of
benevolence and humanity, would attempt
to carry out.
Such were the conditions under which
new existence now began at Prospect Cot
tage. From now ON Lew Barker resumed
his customary business habits, going down
to his Office every morning and applying
himself to schemes in hand, but a close OBJ
server might have noted that he never
failed to return to Prospect cottage for the
evening, and that it was not long before his
absences from the city became rarer and
rarer and briefer and briefer.
1t need hardly be added than Nanny the
mulattress had followed her master to his
new home where she was destined to be-
come what she had been everywhere and at
all times, to-wit creature upon whose de-
votion he could depend in the most absolute
sense of the word. Little Waits nurse had
been discharged, although she had offered to
devote herself to the care of Mrs. Allaire.

THE BEST BOATING DRESSES,
1t is a Great Mistake to Suppose They Need
Not be Heavy and Warm,

The best of all materials for boating
dresses, without any doubt, is dark blue
serge, says the New York Tribune, but some
women complain that it gets mysteriouslv
dusty at sea, the little cabins in some
yachts having a faculty of gathering dust
ashore and evolving it when they get out to
sea. So that in preference to serge some
ladies now choose light tweed. This must
be made in some pretty unobtrusive color.
A neat silk-lined coat and a cap of the same
material must be added to the suit. The
skirt of the dress must clear the ground by
at least two inches, and for that reason,
neatly fitting CATERS buttoned around the
ankle will be exceedingly comfortable on
cold or stormy days.
One of the greatest mistakes a person
contemplating yachting makes is to take
too light clothes. Even in the southern lat
itudes, the dews are heavy and the nights
are apt to be chilly. A thick ulster or
jacket, or even a fur cloak, as well as
steamer rug or Scotch plaid shawl, are ne
cessities. Nothing is half so useful in the
way of bodices as are pretty blouses in cot
ton, silk and flannel. Half dozen NAV
be packed in small compass and furnish
many changes. The sleeveless Jackets
which show the shirt sleeves, are worn this
season and give an air of smartness to the
dress of young woman.

CHAPTER V.

WHAT THREE MONTHS BRING FORTH.
1t would be idle to attempt to describe
the effect produced at San Diego by this
double catastrophe-the drowning of little
Walt, the insanity of the Captains wife!
The reader already knows of the deep SYM
pathy felt for the Allaire family by the res
idents of the city, and of the lively interest
which they took in the welfare of the young
Captain. Although scarcely fortnight
since he had sailed, a terrible calamity had
robbed him of his infant son and his wife of
her reason. Upon his return he would
search his forlorn home in vain for little
Waits smiling face, and there would be no
wife to welcome him joyfully and tenderly.
Molly would not even know that it was he.
And as the Dreadnaught re-entered the
harbor no cheer would go up, she would be
received in dead silence.
But it would not do to await the return
of John Allaire before telling him of the
dread misfortune which had overtaken him
Mr.. Hollister could not for moment think
of leaving the young Captain in ignorance
Of what had happened at the risk of his
coming accidentally upon some fact or cir
cumstance which might make known the
terrible truth to him. The only course for
the merchant to pursue was to send dis
patch to his correspondent at Singapore In
this way Captain John would be informed
of the awful calamity before his arrival in
the Indies.
And yet Andrew Hollister desired to
delay the sending of this dispatch for a
brief period. Possibly Molly's reason was
not irrevocably lost. Who could say that
the tender care lavished upon her might not
restore her shattered intellect. Why strike
John double blow, by informing him of

Mexico poured its wealth into its Golfers.
Its walls alone swallowed up 81, 600, 900 and
its interior blazed with treasures of gold and

the throne. To-day it is the background of
the fireworks that celebrate its fall. 1t be.

As look there seems to be remorse mixed
with its sorrow, and now out of its towers
and above its massive front springs a great
shower of fire of many colors in the shape of
a bow, and in it L read the rainbow of Mex

Government allied to the education, both
moral and intellectual, of the people shall

which will more and more be the Mexico of

THE LYRE BIRD FAN.
!, A Novelty That Originated in Australia and
May Become a Fad.

A novel and handsome fan which has at
tracted considerable attention lately belongs
to the eontralto, Mrs. w. A. Green, of New
York, and is the result of desire to carry
away with her souvenir entirely typical of
the country she is visiting, says Tom and
Country, published at Sydney, N. w. S. The
fan is of Australian manufacture, and is
formed of a full-sized Tyre birds tail, sup
ported by four large ostrich feathers in grey.
These are held in place by silver cup,
beautifully embossed in Tyre bird and ostrich
feather design. The handle is of ivory,
with silver shield containing the mono
gram. The blending of the two grays, in
both the stiff and the plant feathers is very
beautiful, and the lighter silver trimmings
complete most harmonious whole.
The idea that Tyre bird fan would be
unique and original occurred to Mrs. Green
some months ago, and has resulted most
happily. The lady carried it at the last
Darlington ball at the Government House,
where it excited much comment, and was
especially admired by Lady Darlington,
who ordered one like it with plumes and
silver trimmings, and upon her return to
England presented it to the Princess of
Wales.

Great National Bird
as we have This bird is the Mexican eagle.
IL forms a part of the coat of arms, it
roosts on one side of every one of the
twcnty-odd millions of silver dollars which
the Mexican mints turn out every year, and
with its feet resting on thorny cactus and
a serpent firmly held in its mouth and
ralons, it flaps its wings and screams over
the whole of the Republic as loudly as ever
does the great American bird on our glori-
Gus Fourth. The Mexican is naturally
patriot. His blood moves quickly in his
volatile veins, and he is as fond of stump
speech as his brother across his Northern
border
This patriotism is growing For more than
70 wears the country has been at peace and
ehe absence of revolutions has given the
MeXicans a chance to look at themselves and
their wonderful country The result is their
self esteem is growing, their love for Mex
ico is growing and every year sees the 9Th
