Yesterday was indeed a day of
gloom for Jersey City. Mourning
was in every heart, while disaster was
abroad in the streets. Not within the
memory of any citizen had there been
such a series OF misfortunes.
Before the people went to bed on
Saturday night the awful news of
Chief Farrier's death and of the kill
ing Of Oman had spread to almost
every household. When they
on Sunday morning it was to find
their streets encountered with the
wreckage made by the elements.
Beside the tragedies of the night,
the ruin OF the morning seems almost
trivial; but, in truth, the disaster is
Of no common extent. The means of
safety and the ordinary conveniences
Of modern city life are not merely
suspended for the moment; there will
remain loss, after all the ruin is re-
paired, which will count up to per
haps two hundred thousand dollars
altogether.
1t looks today as if it might be weeks
before the telephone and telegraph
systems are fully restored in this city.
The destruction is so widespread that
both men and material will be hard to
get to hasten the work Of reconstruc-
ton, for Jersey City is not worse off
than fifty other places. At a time like
this the average man cannot help
wondering why the companies so OBJ
stinately resist all PROPOSALS to put
their wires under ground. The losses
sustained through Saturday nights
storm would go far towards defray-
ing the cost Of the change, and
Saturday night was merely an ex-
aggeration of what happens to some
extent almost every time there is a
snow or wind storm.

The New sIoped skirt.


New skirts, with most of their full
ness taken out out by a sloped seam
in the middle OF the back, are cut off
in three horizontal pieces to break the
monotony of straight breaths, a fash
ion very becoming to tall, slender
figures. The foundation skirt of silk
has two straight breaths joined by a
seam down the middle of the front, fit
ted over the hips by three darts in each
breadth, and meeting at the back OF
the waist. The space at the top be-
yond the fastening is sloped diagonal
ly to meet two shorter breadths that
are similarly sloped, and parts of two
three-cornered breadths, also sloped in
the middle, are set in at the foot to
give fullness to the bottom of the
skirt.
The outside material is usually of
cloth of double width, and has there
fore fewer lengthwise seams than the
foundation skirt. 1t is cut in three
erosswise pieces passing straight
around the figure, each tapping slight
ly upon that below it, and each a
third OF the length of the skirt in
depth when finished with a stitched
hem. These pieces also have the
sloped seam in the back, and are
sewed on the foundation skirt with
out fullness. Such skirts are most
worn with round waists that are
slipped under the skirt; hence the top
of the skirt is trimmed with passe-
menterle to give a pretty finish to the
bodice. At the foot of the skirt is
usually a band of fur or feathers and
passamenterie .-HdTpeT'S BazdT.

Fascinatlng Cuban women.

Any n who has been about in
Spain knows how the women Of vari-
GUS provinces differ one from the
other; how, for instance, the damo-
Zels of Catalina are strongly built and
coarsely featured, while those of Val
encia have light, but well-rounded
forms, wonderful hands and feet, and
a walk which is not even eclipsed by
the slighter and more famous Anda-
lusians. In the north of Spain, where
one might expect a certain sameness
of type the difference is even more
sharply defined. How dissimiIar, for
example, is the general type of the
maids of Navarro and that of the
Arganese girls. The former, with
their delicate, rosy compilations, oval
classical faces and gracefully devel.
oped forms, compare very fayorably
with the latter, whose coarse skins
and square, irregular faces make such
beauty as they have bucolic, and
whose thick set forms prevent any
thing like elegance in pose or motion.
Now the Cuban girl is a mixture Of
The Valencians and Castilians; she has
no roses in her cheeks and very little
golden CLINT upon her hair. She is of
slender build, often o slender. Her
limbs tend sometimes upon the angu-
lar and her throat upon the scraggy.
But despite her sallow complexion and
and dull black hair she unmistakable
charms. Her eyes are wonderful, and
speak any number of three volume
novels at a single glance. The wan
derer, unaecustomed to such a mix
ture of fire and passion and sweetness,
may be prone to set down the Cuban
maid as an adept at coquetry. She
may be that, it is true, but
her eyes do not win her
the reputation. The ineffable
| chances which he imagined are
called up for his especial benefit or
harm are merely the ordinary express
