Mr.. A. Judson Cole, who is the manager
of one of the large Chicago Wholesale
houses in the line of gentlemen's furnish
ings, shows a novel necktie which he has
received from Texas. 1t is a rattiesnake
skin, made up in the form of four-in-
hand tie. The point rattle is set in the
center of the outer fold, to serve the pur
pose of a tie pin. AS it glistens and shows
all sorts of shifting colors in the sunlight
or gaslight, it makes a very attractive, if
not exactly conventional, tie. Mr.. Cole
says that it was sent to him as a sample,
the sender saying that, as the stock of
rattlesnalSes in his country is inexhausti-
bic, he can supply as many of those strange
ties as the Chicago house may want

years it was turned into magnificent
auditorium, packed with 10000 or 10, 900
people, all apriauding and enthusiastic,
listening to the lyric delights of Jenny
Lind. There, too, they watched the un-
folding of the dramatic genius of Grisi,
and applauded to the echo the silver
notes of her curly headed Mario. There,
too, the characteristic conductor, Julien.
brought his wonderful orchestra; there the
great colnetist, Koenig, displayed himself
as the forerunner of Arbuckle and Levy;
there the Mollenhauer brothers, within ell
ancholy eyes and dropping mustaches
and exquisite strains, delighted the PEG.
