Graduating Dresses.

Transparent white fabrics over a color
chosen by an entire class will prevail in
some colleges and schools. An example is
cream white mousseline de sole over pale
pink satin. Pure white dresses are, how
ever most used by girl graduates. An
aesthetic design for sheer white wool or
crepe gowns has graceful Grecian draperies
and long flowing sleeves, and should be
worn with a mortar board cap of white
velvet. Some charming girlish gowns of
white organdy muslin are being made.
They have the full French waist, with deep
Vaienciennes lace gathered to fall from
the shirred half high round neck. The
large sleeves have IA lace frill below the
elbow. Three ruffies edged with narrower
Valenciennes trim the foot of the straight
skirt, and a wide sash of organdy gives the
finishing touch to these simple dresses.
Othermuslin dresses are of sheer nainsook,
made with high belted waist buttoned in
the back.
Deeply crinkled japanese silk crepe, the
smooth crepe de Chine and China silk are
the white silks used for young girls
dresses. inexpensive dresses Of white
China silk Tor these young girls have the
high round bodice plated on the right
shoulder and shirred on the left, crossing
below, and leaving Y 20 be filed out
with mousseline de sole draped in curves.
Home dressmakers will find a simple
model for these white China silks in a
shirred round high bodice hooked in the
back over fitted sateen lining. The full
hess at the waist is gathered on eight or
ten cords, and that at the top is fatty
shirred in round yoke shape, with an inch
wide standing frill of doubled silk about
the low throated neck. The skirt cannot
be too plain, but must be of becoming
length and fullness, and these differ &C
cording TO the height Of the wearer
Young lady graduates at evening exer-
cises wear plain or figured mousseline de
sole dresses made with half low corsage,
with coat skirts and long sleeves The
skirt is demi-trained. Black stockings aud
black slippers will complete simple toilets
for graduates For those more elaborate,
white stockings, with white, silver or gilt
slippers, are suggested. Greek filiets Of
white ribbon and an upturned bow at the
side are the pretty ornaments for the hair.
The white gauze fan is suspended from a
bow of ribbon on the right shoulder by
two long ends that hang back of the arm.

an excellent representative of the so called
gentlemanly prize fighter. He comes of a

grief of his fathers life is that Jim" in
sists upon "disgracing the family" as he
terms it, by his coming battle with Jack

his imprisoned statement not long ago, 81

step into the ring to fight for purse" His
pugiiistic offspring, however, is as deter
mined to fight as his father is to prevent the
match, and there the matter stands. The
battle, however, will undoubtedly come off
as advertised before the California Athletic
club May 81 The purse is S10,000-sS. 500

man Corbett is only twenty-four years OF
age and newcomer in pugilistic circles,

markably good showing he made against

front rank He stands 6 #. Is in. in his

He is very ambitious to succeed Sullivan,
and his status among the heavyweights
who are aspiring to that honor will be
more definitely fixed than it is at present
by the result of the battle with Jackson.
The colored man is comparatively old
and experienced fighter, and the young
Californian has large contract before
him.

E.hans,,a, Of silver Mines.

1t is worth noting in view of the silver
discussion that by the modern and espe-
cially the American system of mining, the
richest mines are most rapidly exhausted.
1t is in them that capital can afford 70 con-
centraee the most expensive and effective
machinery, and the costly plant once
placed, the more rapid the extraction and
reduction of ore the greater Is the econ
omy. 1t seems but yesterday that the
Comstock aud its combinations made
Nevada the greatest silver region IN the
world. but now one rarely hears OF the
Comstock, and in the last decade Nevada
lost heavily in population The silv
mines of Colorado develop for the most
part slowly, which is not so good for in
vessors, but Is far better for the building
of a permanent community.

The Cheap Fuel Problem.

Among the latest attempted solutions of
the cheap fuel problem, says The CONNER
cial Advertiser, is the method of German
inventor, who proposes to manufacture
gas by dropping stream of crude petro-
leum through blast of cold air from a
force pump. The gas thus obtained will
be confined in regular cylinder open at
one end, where it will be lighted. This
produces an intensely hot fame of several
feet in length. By means of this fame the
inventor proposes to heat boilers, and he
maintains that the heating of large blocks
can thus be reduced very considerably.

A subaoueous Explosion.

During the unusual severity of the past
winter in northern Europe the Seine and
other French rivers were frozen over, and
on the return of milder weather small ice
gorges formed, much to the dismay of the
Frenchmen, unaccustomed as they were to
such formations, which in this country are
of almost annual occurrence. Nitro glyce-
rine and other powerful explosives were
used to break up the ice, with fairly good
success.

taneous photograph of one Of the prelim-
mary experiments, where cartridge Of

fector. enabling you not only to concen-
tTate the luminous rays, but to direct These
with ease and precision to the part OF the
throat you desire to examine.
A silver spoon will also enable you to
study the very curious properties of curved
mirrors. Hold the hollow side before your
face, and in the concave mirror thus ex-
temporized you will see your features, up
side down. Turn the spoon round, and its
opposite, constituting a convex mirror,
will show your face, this time right side
uppermost, but heightened to abnormal
proportions; narrow at top, but broad at
bottom, and decidedly more of a caricature
than a portrait. By turning the spoon
horizontally, still with the convex side to-
ward you, your features will be reproduced
in squat and swollen form, giving you
notion how you might look if you were
hanged. The surface of well polished
silver dish cover is a still better medium
wherein to study these distorted reflections,
many of which are irresistibly funny.

easily from scratch, and in the last, in 1885,
he sustained a severe fall which almost de-
termined him to forego the path forever;
but the aching void which he endures must
be filed in some way, SO that it is by no
means impossible that he will ride again
shortly.
Hamilton is Yale graduate, and won
while at that university the intercollegiate
bicycle championships of 1854 and 1885,
while in the first mentioned year he was
the amateur champion of America. He is
a strong rider now and chivalrous to a
fault, a statement sustained by those who
recall his race on board floor with Bid
well. When his opponent fell, Hamilton
generously consented to fresh start, and
won the race despite his concession.

MarnetIzation of Steel Plates.

The Stationary Engineer tells that
some experiments recently made in the
magnetization of steel plates gave some
curiens results by showing that poles
could not be formed at right angles to the
plane of the disk, but the poles formed
were arranged as if the magnetizing force
had acted along a diagonal line across the
plate if the plate was square, but if the
plate was oblong or a rectangle the poles
formed were parallel with the longer sides.
A number Of these plates were placed to-
gether and msgnetized. So long as they
remained together regular distribution
of magnetism existed, but when separated
the polarity indicated that the magnetism
was along the diagonal. These experiments
may serve to explain the irregular records
of some testing instruments that have been
used extensively.

A Pioneer American Racer, but Very
Young Man Still.
Louis B. Hamilton was among the early
cycle racers of America, but as the history
of important competition only dates from
1880, or Whereabouts, it so happens that he
is at once an old rider and a young man.
Hamilton was born in Waterbury, Conn,
and, true to the general characteristics of
Nutmeg State riders, is both tall in point
of stature and deceiving as to capabilities.
1t is remarkable that his first and last
races previous to this year were ridden on
the same track at Springfield, Mass. The

A Sketch of the Well Known
American Amateur.
MIND AND BODY WORK TOGETHER

Long Continued Athletic Activity and a
Natural Life Have Given Him His Re-
markable Physical DevelOpment-He
will Go to Europe with the Manhat-

Picture to yourself sturdy, well dressed
young man with light, wavy hair, Keen
brown ewes, features clear cut as those OF
cameo. a pale but healthy complexion,
souare law and determined mouth,
shaded by a light musteche, and you Will
gain an idea of the every day appearance of
Malcolm w. Ford, the best known amateur
athlete in America To people who are not
esnecially interested in athletics Ford's
name is probably most familiar through
the wide newspaper comment caused by
his suspensions for alleged professionalism,
and his reinstatement in each instance as
an amateur in good standing. But to the
athletic world in general Ford is known as
a phenomenal all round amateur, who has
written his name high on the list of notable
achievements.
Malcolm Webster Ford was born in
Brooklyn, Feb. z, 1862, and is consequently
Twenty-Five years of age. Strange to re-
late, his ancestors for years back have
neither been athletic nor possessed of an
usual strength. On the contrary they
have nearly all been people Of literary

both literary in tastes; his grandfather
was Yale professor, and his great-grand-
father was none other than Noah Web
