REVIVAL OF SATIN.
The Latest Fancy In for Striped aud Ser
pentino Figuring.

The Latest Fancy In for Striped and Ser
pentino Figuring.
The rich satins, lately SO little used,
are restored to favor, that their bril-
liant luster may enhance the beauty of
the gay gowns now worn. Plain satins
are used for parts Of gowns, for coats of
figured dresses, for sleeves of net gowns
and for the demi-trains with brocaded
coats. But the caprice of the season is
for striped satins in narrow serpentine
lines, or undulating diagonal waves
across the breadth, or the favoritc chew
ron stripes in many zigzag points from
selyage to selvage, or else meeting in
the middle of the breadth to form a
single row of points. Satin and faille
alternate in these fancy stripes, and
many are of contrasting colors. as lilac
and pale blue, buff with blue, tan with
green, yellow with white, or rose with
green. Tongue-like points of rosy pink
satin almost meets in the middle of
white faille breadths Other soft satins
have diagonal stripes of three shades of
gray, or else of brown shaded to cream
color. Fish-scale designs, shells, and
leaf-like points with their indented
edges of silver or gold, are among new
brocades, as pink leaves edged with sill
ver or gray satin leaves with gold.
Baskets holding silver blossoms or
heaped up and overrunning with flowers
are favorite designs for satins. The
fluttering ribbon and bow-knot designs
and the small Pompadour clusters of
flowers are all retained.
A novelty is chevron MORE stripes on
gros grain that is slightly changeable,
as gray MORE in points on changeable
pink and gray silk. The old shade cafe
au lait is seen again in new silks.
'Changeable gros grains of two very
light colors are powdered with bios
SONS, and striped as well. Glace silks
have diagonal satin stripes of contrast
ing colors. Dark silks are intricately
patterned with vine stripes crossing di-
agonally reversed stripes of great width.
Black silks have large oval figures of
color forming chevron stripes-blue,
reseda, rose or green. Taffetas of light
weight for summer gowns are of ex-
tremely light colors striped with white
and strewn with flowers. Harper's
Bazaar.

The entertainment given on Thanks
giving eve was a success in every par
tlcular. 1t is said to be the best enter
tainmen. ever given in the city by home
talent exclusively.
The Piano Quartette by Mrs. DIR. KEN
per, Mrs. .. Alter, Misses Annie Ketten-
hofen and Emma Fechter merits the
highest praise. The vocal quartette con-
sisting of Mrs. G.. W. Fechter, Mrs. @.
Alter, DR.. Banzhof and Clyde Sedgwick
pleased the audience as they do always.
Indeed 1t is no easy matter to secure a
quartette who can excel that named.
Miss krummheur sang solo and well
sustained the reputation she earned at
a concert few weeks ago. Her recita-
ton was also fine effort. Miss Ketten-
hofen gave a defamation in German
which was quite we'll received. Prof.
Franzl well earned an encore which was
quite enthusiastic Albert Landreth's
reading y.ss just what might be expected
from his magnificent voice and intelli.
gent expression.
The entertainment netted the society
5000, rather nice sum fer charitable
purposes at time when charity should
be most active.

THERE was slight ripple suggestive
OF contest on the report of the assess
meat committee last Wednesday. Henry
Wits, the chairman made the report and
accompanied it with explanations Mr.
Ro lewald and Mr.. Hacker spoke against
the reportso far as it affected their towns.
After the adoption of the report Mr. Wits
took occasion to reply to some remarks
to the effect that the city did not bear its
just share of taxation. 1t was a good
sensible talk and it is unfortunate it was
not addressed to larger audience. He
admitted to begin with that the city was
not assessed as high as it should be. The
same thing was true of every town. But
the taxes on property in some of the city
wards was four per cent of the assessed
valuatio |. 1t might be said, he added,
that the bulk of this tax is for local pur-
poses. No doubt; but the local improve.
ments were for the public good. The i'm
provement of streets, the electric lights
and the establishment of manufactures
cont ibute to the convenience and pros
perity of the farming community as we'll
as to the residents of the city. If the city
Is made to grow and prosper the country
shares in the benefit. Sheboygan is a
better market for butter, eggs and vege-
tables than Mauitowoc is because She
boygan is larger city which is due to its
manufacturing industries. The people OF
Manltowoc are taxing themselves so as to
donate sites for factories and thus attract
them here. Ii it succeeds can any one
say that the county as a whole would
not be benefited?
Such efforts should receive the hearty
good viii of the people OF the county
Indeed they should put their shoulder:
to the wheel and help on the movement
The burden at present is almost to,
heavy for the city to bear. Hostility OF
the part of the country towns toward tn
city is foolish policy even in bushes
| sense.

number of years. A few years ago he re-
tired. He was generous, honest man
and is sincerely incurred by large circle

SINGULAR feature of the post office
business is the unaccountable increase
IN volume during the week. Postal bust
ness is imperative and would not seem
to be at all dependent on mere conven-
fence. Possibly the novelty of dropping
letter into the new Office, or the fact
that new post Office is news of such
consequence as to stimulate correspon-
dence may account for the increase.
