In this handsome street gown by Redfern
there is an effort to modify this senseless fash
ion. and the result is a neat. we'll hung skirt,
which barely touches the ground. The ma
terial is of faced cloth of Swede color. The
skirt is slashed on the right side to the knee,
and the edges are furnished with button
holes and irridescent pearl buttons, which are
not however. intended to fasten, as the object
of the opening is to show petticoat of hunt
ers green velvet. The bodice has square
jacket fronts extending into long coat tails be-
hind, which are trimmed with buttons like the
skirt. A rolled collar and very wide revers Of
the velvet give character to this bodice, and a
vest of the material or OF corded silk completes
the costume. The hat is a Swede felt of the

The dressmakers and women's tailors and
all their army Of work people have been busy
Tor some time, and their first productions are
being worn at the autumn resorts, but it will
be but few days now before we shall
see some OF the new styles upon
Promenaders and shoppers here on the
city streets. The latest models still show a
more or less sweeping skirt, although it was
thought that the condemnatory ridicule heaped
upon this fashion all summer would have
served to Danish it by this time. But it is good
for the dressmakers, and most women consider
1t stylish and are therefore ready to adopt the
demi-train, even while they admit that it is ex-
pensive, untidy and bothersome.

slashes, which being In their nature so
many surprises would give swordsman
unused TO their methods some little
trouble.
The first move Jap makes in q sword
fight is fraught with danger to his oppo-
nent. There are no preliminaries, with q
Jap. The fight begins with him while his
blade is yet in its scabbard, and as he
draws his weapon wisdom will give him
about forty feet of room.
Grasping the scabbard near the centre
he slightly tits 1t SO that the point OF the
sword IA it hangs by his side Is, 1t any,
thing, a little higher than the hilt. The
sword itself is curved, very heavy, and
with its single edge as keen as twenty ra-
Zors.
When he draws il streams from the scab-
bard like a beam of light, and as it comes
he makes prodigious step forward with
his right foot accompanying the whole
with a rapid circular slash upward OF the
back-handed sort. The whole performance
is one motion and rapid in its execution as
thought.
Your Jap will reach man dozen feet
away and the keen blade starting its wor K
low will split an opponent like mackerel.
A japanese swordsman always makes tins
upward sweep on drawing his weapon,
whether an enemy is in sight or not.
