left side is big bunch of peoples and

A pretty dress, ecru in TINT and ladies'
cloth in material. came down in the Broad
way cars yesterday. The skirt was scanty,
drawn back so tightly that the wearer
seemed scarcely able to walk in it, and yet
when she did take step the dress seemed
to yield, and produced an effect as graceful
as is ever seen in the new umbrella case
styles. The waist of the gown was but
toned-actually buttoned with visible but
tons all the way down the front. The but
tons were of gilt, trimmed with silver.
On each side of the buttons broad lapel
of navy blue velvet was turned back until
the outside point of the lapel almost
touched the high puff sleeves. The collar
was standing one, at least two inches in
height, and broad collar like lapel stood
up around the neck and turned back in
| front in two large points. This lapel or
collar was also of navy blue velvet. AS a
wrap against the GOODNESS of the late after
noon, the wearer carried over her arm an
ecru cape which, when donned, would be
tight-htting in the back and thickly
braided with cord of deep brown. Full
puff sleeves, bell seaped at the hand, ana a
loose front bordered with feather trimming
completed the trimming of this pretty gar
ment
On the newest gown, chiffon, thickly
! gathered or shirred in several rows, is put
about the neck of COWS and down the front,
being used exactly as the feather trimming
has been. The chiffon is exceedingly easy
material to handle, being light, soft, silky.

just one more dress! 1t was worn by a
bdS bleu, literary women who is so plain in
| dress that she seldom permits herself the
| luxury of wearing anything more elaborate
than the round waist and Puritan skirt of
year ago.
The dress was grey belize, with full
bodice. There was a Swiss belt with steel
embroidery and more of the steel embroid-
cry trimmed the cuffs and went across the
front of the narrow skirt in broad band
Scroll edging in steel was used sparingly
upon the waist A high collar was of RED

same material. With this gown went hat
with grey rustic straw, caught up fanci

seen pretty yet odd picture of woman

young Spaniard, petite, bright in manner,
graceful, stylish and one which any man
might be proud to accompany.
Yet, for all, the pretty little Spaniard
often rides unaccompanied by any one ex-

other cavaliers she has none, for the simple
reason that her attire is so very remarkable
that no other men have been found suffi-
GENTLY imbued with the courage Of their
opinions to dare venture forth at her side.
The dress that she has chosen is one Of
her own invention, suggested by things
which she has seen and read, but yet her
own after all. 1t is a cross between con-
yentional riding habit for women, con-
Ventional walking skirt, a pair of Turkish
trowserB and a mans riding suit. Yet the
combination of all these conventionalities
produces a suit which is the most uncon-
yentional thing to be seen in Central park.

quilted satin skirt underneath, and the light

may be filled in with yoke of colored
cloth, supposing that the material is black,
and for evening the yoke may be trimmed
with jet. Black Bengaline makes up into
unusually beautiful dresses, when com
bined with jet and supplied with ieweled

All kinds Of jewels are not considered
good form in the morning. The only really
morning iewelry consist of pearls, diamonds

onyx are seen combined with diamonds.
With diamonds, so says the fashionable
world, one or other kind of jewelry will
pass muster for morning wear and that
kind is the sapphire. But the two gems
must always be worn in combination.
The passion for feather trimming has
lasted over into late spring. Far exceeding
the season when such ornamentation has
been considered suitable. 1t is still seen as

collars and finishing the cuffs and lapels OF

suppose if there's one thing more than
another for which fashions recorders need
never make apology, it is for the exploiting
of feminine headgear, and all that fascin-
ating frippery which is massed under the
head of millinery goods. For if constant
iteration makes anything a fact, it must be
admitted that she is less or more than
woman who does not delight in her bonnets,
particularly when they have all the charm
of newness. And of all the bonnets and
hats the year around, there appears to be a
special glamour about the spring bonnets
just as there is about the season itself
That is when we get any genuine spring,
such as the early English poets used to i'm
mortalize in verse. 1t is probably because
of the contrast offered by the brilliant yet
delicate colors, the airy tulle and lace and
exquisite embroideries, and above all by
the wonderfully natural French flowers, as
against the more sombre and heavy felt and
velvet and plumes of the winter hat, which
makes the new one so alluring. But what
ever it may be, it is certain the millinery
achievements of this spring will be no less
dear to its poSsessors than those of former
seasons, for in richness of material and di-

Minneapolis Caledonians CeIe-
brate the Birthday of Burns.
Bobby Burns died too soon. He
should have lived long enough to assist
Minneapolis Caledonians at the celebra-
ton of his own birthday. No man de.
lighted more in merry company than
did Bobby, and il he could have mingled
at the banquet table and in the
reception room with the "braw lads and
lassies'' who dwell up in this country,
he would have been content. But since
the lover of "Highland Mary" could
not be with them, the Minneapolis
Scotchmen did the next best thing. and
gathered at the Guaranty Loan building
last night to pass one evening, as nearly
as possible, in the company of the de-
parted singer. The CaledOnians are a
poet. If SidneySmith's remark about The
Scotchman, the joke and the surgical
operation be the essence of truth. there
must have been an army of surgeons at
last nights gathering, for the jokes
were plentiful and seemed to be en-
joyed. The reception began at 8 o'clock,
the guests being received and greeted
bv the officers of the club and their
wives, assisted by j. B. Gilfillan. Mr..
and Mrs. William Donaldson and other
prominent Scots. And every man who
loves the thistle by instinct, was pres
ent with his wife, his sister, OF his
sweetheart. At 9 o'clock all sat down
to dinner in the big private dining hall,
completely filling the spacious room,
and while the music rose and fell the
merry banqueters mingled spiritual and
bodily pleasures. The plates removed,
the toasts began, and continued
till nearly midnight. A COM
plete list of the latter are
unnecessary. Scotchmen always drink
the same toasts at Burns banquets. 1t
is sufficient to say the responses were

THE OLD CLARK COMPANY.
Members of the Concern Tell
Rather Bad Stories.

AdUucF Ddu SIOEICSs
The suit of Mrs. Nye against T. B.
Penny and Frank Bruen, employees of
the defunct w. B. Clark INVESTMENT
company, developed little war among
the members of that concern yesterday.
The defendants took occasion to jump
on Mr.. Clark rather heavily, accusing
him of having been drunk iii Boston
while he was supposed to be there get
ting subscriptions to the amount of
$4,000 for a proposed land scheme,
which was to save the concern, and also
that he had stated that he had that
amount, when, in fact, he had but
$4,000.
Clark was present, and in turn took
the part of the widow against the men.
He washed his hands of the whole affair
by stating that he knew nothing what
ever of the deal wherein her $1,000 was
swamped, and that it was all the work
of the defendants. He said that in his
opinion the defendants had sold her
some of their own stock, which he had
formerly sold them at 33115 cents on
the dollar. There were also some
lessons in handwriting when 1T was
alleged that Penny, in signing Clark's
name to the letter to Mrs. Nye, had at
tempted to initiate the signature and
general appearance of Clark's writing.
A motion was made to dismiss the case,
but Judge Smith insisted upon keeping
in both of the defendants. A decision
was rendered for the plaintiff and stay

but nothing was done. Another meet
ing will be held during the week to
settle that matter. Neither did the
question of raising the pay of some of
the employees of the health department
come up as was expected. 1t is
likely, however, that that matter will be
considered at the next meeting. The
employees of the health department are
not paid in accordance with the duties
devolving upon them, nor are their sal
aries commensurate in size with the
employees of other city departments.
Some of the health department incum-
bents demand more money, and it is
probable that their requests will be
granted. Another batch of business
connected with the health department
which was postponed again was
the appointment of couple OF
health inspectors and one or two
medical inspectors. Aid. Gray, one of
the committee, says all the appointments
have been made, but he declines to give
the names of the appointees. DR.. Bra
Zie, chairman of the committee, says all
the appointments have not been made.

Then Receded From 1t.


Then Receded From 1t.
Yesterday afternoon the council COM
mittee on fire department met and, IN
addition to transacting some routine
business, had lively little session ON
plumbing matters. In the beginning 1t
was decided to advertise for bids for the
erection of an engine house on Thlr-
teenth avenue northeast, near Main
street. The plans have already been
drawn for the building. The Second
ward people represented to the commit
tee that they need another engine
house. They want it located OIL Uni
versty avenue, down near Oak street.
AID. Haynes appeared as the champion
of the cause of his constituents. That
matter was deferred for future action
Then Building Inspector Hazen sent
in report on the plumbing in
couple of the engine houses recently
erected, especially the house at James
and Fifth avenues north. The building
inspector, in type written communlca,,
ton represented that the plumbing had
been examined by him and his plumb
ing inspector and that it was wretched
piece of work. The plumbing was said
to be botch of the worst kind and

standpoint. That report affected the
ire of Architect Corser, causing it to
boil over. A battle seemed imminent.
1t was only averted by the building in
| spector coming down from his lofty at
titude and admitting that the plumbing
| might not be SD bad as represented ny
| him that it was, in fact sanitary plumb
| ing. And no blood was spilled.
This little rencontre between the
| building inspector and the fire depart
ment paved the way for a proposition
from Aid. McGowan. The First ward
alderman wants to see the city plumb
ing done under the supervision OF one
man only. At present there are three
plumbers on city. work. There is one
in the water department, a plumbing
inspector in the building inspectors
department. and city plumber. Here
are three heads for doing one piece OF
work. Aid. MCGOWAN believes that
there should be but one city plumber,
who should have charge of all the
work. and who should be under the
control of the health department, or the
sewer department. There are good
many cogent reasons for adopting such
plan with reference to plumbing, and
