Chance Location or a city.

According to a Seattle Washington
man, it was a case of necessity when the
city OF Tacoma was located on Puget
Sound. 1.-THE Northern Pacific" he
says, "was obliged to reach tide water
with its western line by certain date.
The financial furry came on, and it was
difficult to raise funds necessary for the
completion of the road. Yet large land
grants and heavy subsidies were depend
ent upon reaching of salt water by a
certain date. 1t was the intention 10
place the western terminus of the North
ern Pacific far to the north and west OF
the present location, but in spite of tho
untiring efforts of financiers in the East
and engineers in the West 1t was seen
that The point selected could never be
reached in time to save the lands and
funds dependent upon reaching salt
water. The management of the road
ordered the engineers to press toward the
nearest poipt on the sound without re.
gard TO the terminus. Boston Tran.

GREAT CHANCE FOR OLD MAIDS.

"There is a great chance for old maids
in the Argentine Republic" remarked
Henri Bosquet, of Buenos Ayres, at the
Ricbelieu, Chicago, recently. "There
arc about sixteen men 10 one woman
there, and the unmarried males are more
than anxious to secure wives. This is
especially true of my city. When a
new woman, as we call the welcome
arrival, comes to town, about fifty men
make a wild effort to secure her, il ~
quite an interesting contest, and The one
who captures the prize IS looked upon as
something of hero. The local papers
eVrite columns about it, and about every
body in the city turns ont to the we'd
ding, It doesn't matter much about the
woman's age or looks; she is received
with open arms and married off in jiIy
TO some real nice man. The woman
will have about fifty good-looking suit
ors to pick from, 50 she need not be
anxious about finding the kind 81 : man
she wants. The love-making doesn't last
long, however. Three days is the usual
limit" Mr., BosQuet also spoke about
che delightful climate Of his country, of
the luxury everybody there enjoyed, and
if what he says is true the Argentine Re-
public is an earthly paradise.-NeO

LADIES' COLUMN.
REVIVAL OF NEEpIEwoRK.

Since drawn work and hemstitching
have come so much into favor again,
rusty talents for needlework are polished
up and unsupported pleasure is discovered
at the point of the needle by many women
older and younger, who knew it not.
There are even gentiewomen among us
the good old word describes them best
who turn many sn honest penny en-
broidering doylies and making plain
7luckaback a source of aesthetic satisfac-
ton for their friends. One of these,
whose bedspreads are not less charming
than her napkins, and whose tray-cloths
are pleasure to the eyes of women, does
her work in a pretty drawiag-room over
flowing with delightful artistic things.
She is one of those women under whose
touch all things become COED, graceful
and lovely--a stiff drspery falls into soft
folds, aud plain fruit napkin becomes a
beautiful doyley. Boston Transcript.

FASHION NOTES.

All the newest dresses have one founcO
around the hem.
Eyebrow brushes are among the nov
elites Of the toilet table.
1t is going to be the fashion to wear
small bonnets at public entertainments.
The coiffure worn with large hat is
either loosely knotted or twisted at the
back.
Shoulder knots of ribbon are added to
all low necked gowns worn by young
ladies.
The meodiste eschews flowers in mos
of her beautiful decorations just at the
moment, but the milliner is making
great use of them.
Dresses of cloth have the lower por.
tons of the skirt draped with silk Of
velvet in festoon fashion, and caught up
with rosettes, bows or large fancy but
tons.
The she'll lorgnette has had its day,
and the substitute is an eight-inch strip
of silver, exquisitely carved, with
monocle on one end and mirror on the
other.
Russian hoods, fur-trimmed and made
of velvet or of plush, are very fetching
and becoming. They make very pretty
setting to a young, fresh face, and prove
at the same time very comfortable and
convenient.
Sleeves in some of the spring dresses
are made in two fabrics of differing
colors, one fastening over the other
Short lengths in contrast can be used for
these under sleeves and vest of the
same shade

4 CRAZE roR PINK AND YELLOW.

A CRAZE FOR PINK AND YELLOW.
Pink and yellow are the cOlors Of
fashions realm this seasOn-pink in en-
sertainment, yellow in decoration. There
are any number of pink dinners,
luncheons and teas. The menu, the ices,
the flowers, the gowns are all of this
sweet shade; there is veritable craze
FOR the color. Little lemon biscuit are
threaded together with pink ribbons,
bon-bons are done up in pink satin, the
sorbet comes in pink glass and the ices
are frozen in the shape Of pink roses.
Bathrooms, dining rooms and tea tables
are draped and decorated in yellow,
green and white, or in gold and white
alone. A fad is to drape tea table with
white and yellow gauze with lamps,
candles and shades to match. Mrs.
Ogden Mills ballroom, said to be the
handSomest in New York City, Is dene IN
white and gold; the hall is of white
marble, the stairs having a beautiful
balustrade OF bronze. Yellow gowns are
very much worn, especially by blondes,
who have at last learned that they look
better in this color and in pink and
scarlet than in the everlasting baby blues
they have so long affected, and in which
they appeared washed out and faded.
Yellow velvet saucer hats, with loops
and wings Of black velvet, are very
smart, and one young belle made a sen.
sation at the opera one night by appear
ing in a gown of yellow gauzc bordered
with black cocks feathers. - Chicago
