From Ruff to Necktie.


The necktie, now become purely or
namental detail Of dress, was originally
useful. 1t was intended to protect the
throat. Its history may be traced from
the time of the Stuarts in England, when
immense ruffs, which served as neck
cloths and collars, were worn.
Later neckcloths or cravats were
adopted, and no doubt were welcome
change from the stiff, uncomfortable
ruff. They were of Brussels or Flanders
lace, tied in q knot under the chin, the
ends being allowed to hang square.
Still later they were worn much longer,
the ends being passed through the but
ton holes OF the waistcoat.
The lace neckcloth was succeeded by
small cambria bands, but was reintro-
duced in Queen Anne's reign, and did
not go out of use entirely until about
1875. Then a broad silk ribbon, tied in
large bow in front, was worn, and this
in turn was followed by white cambria
stocks buckled in the back, and by mus
lin cravats, which were tied in front in
an immense bow.
In the early part of this century the
stiff linen collar had begun to be worn,
and the cravat was passed twice around
the collar and tied in a fanciful bow in
front.
About 1920 cravats were made very
wide in the center and tapered off to-
ward the ends. Thirty years ago stocks
and cravats began to disappear, and
scarfS began to take their place. From
these scarfs, gradually growing smaller,
was developed the modern neat necktie.

superstitions About Eggs.

In olden times, in the French rural
districts, the parish priest would, very
early on the Easter morning, visit from
house to house, and bless each in turn.
In payment for his visit and blessing ha
always received eggs, and sometimes it
was a serious question how to dispose of
so large number. Among the French
royalty, in similar period, baskets
trimmed with green leaves and filed
with golden eggs. after the celebration
of high mass on Easter morning, were
brought into the kings cabinet and dis
tributed to the court by the chaplain
Indeed it was an article of faith in Nor
mandy that when the church bells ush-
cred in the Easter morn, angelsSescended
to the homes where little children dwelt,
and left eggs as an assurance of their
visit. Emma J. Gray in Good House

A Pretty Table Scarf.

A very pretty scarf for table or dresser
Came to my notice lately. Linen Of
rather fine quality was hemstitched on
ends and sides, and grouped in twos and
threes with some single flowers were
dogwood blossoms without foliage. The
edge of each petal was outlined in white
silk and then closely darned across the
same silk a single thread of flofoss
being used for the darning and two for
the outline. The lines of darning were
as close together as could be made and
the stitch was taken as short as possible
on the wrong side and quite long on the
right, SO an almost solid silk flower in
appearance was the result when finished,
which was extremely pretty. - Washing

STARVATION AND COLD.
A Terrible Picture Of the Priyations OF
Fremout's Fourth Expedition.

A Terrible Picture Of the Priyati0ns of
Fremout's Fourth Expedition.
In The Century is printed posthum-
ous account by survivor of the fourth
expedition Of Gen. Fremont. The scene
is in the neighborhood of the Rio Grande
del Norte. The writer, Micajah Nc
Gehee, of Mississippi, thus described the
effect of the cold upon the animals:
The farther we went the more OBJ
stacles we had to encounter; difficulties
beset us SO thickly on every hand as we
advanced that they threatened to thwart
our expedition. The snow became deeper
daily, and to advance was but adding
dangers to difficulties. About one-third
Of the men were already more or less
frost bitten; every night some Of the
mules would freeze to death, and every
day as many more would give out from
exhaustion and be left on the trail. It
seemed like fighting fate to attempt to
proceed, but we were bent on our course,
and continued to advance.
At one time men were sent ahead to
report the prospect, and returned stating
that grass appeared in the distance be-
fore them; they supposed that the snow
was abating, but on coming up what
they saw proved to be the tops of bushes
six feet high projecting above the snow;
nor did anything appear upon which the
animals could subsist The corn we had
packed along for them was already con-
sumed. Sometimes we would ATTEMPT
to move on, and the severity of the
VUoofhov vuor1I6 ff>v>oo 1>.< go
In one of these attempts, before we could
beat our way half mile against the
tempest, our guide, Old Bill Williams,
was nearly frozen; he dropped down
upon his mule in stupor and was nearly
senseless when we got into camp.
A number Of the men came in with
their noses, ears, faces, fingers and feet
partly frozen, and one or two of the
mules dropped down and froze to death
under their packs. Poor mulesl It was
pitiable to see them. They would roam
about all night, generally, on account of
their extreme weakness, following back
the path OF the previous day, paving in
the snow three or four feet deep for some
sign of vegetation to keep them alive.
They would fall down every fifty yards
under their packs, and we would have
to unpack them and lift them up, and
that with fingers frozen and lacerated
by the cold.
Finally they began eating the ropes
and rawhide lariats with which they
were tied until there were no more left
in camp to tie them with; then they ate
the blankets which we tied over them at
night; then they came into camp and ate
the pads and rigging off the pack sad
dies and ate one another's names and
tails entirely bare, even into the flesh,
and would come to us while sleeping
and begin to eat the blankets off us;
they would even tumble into our fires,
over the cooking utensils. But, poor
things, little relief could we afford them,
for, although they suffered much, we
were in no better condition.

Death of Captain Charles Smith-A Hur-

The Pacific Mail steamer City of Sydney
arrived yesterday from Panama, bringing
dates from the iSthmuS 10 the 10th inst. Her
news has been mostly anticipated. The fol-
lowing is summary:
The Peruvian Mail claims that the
Chilean Govern ment has violated the COM
mercial treaty Of 1879 with Peru, which was
confirmed by the treaty Of Ancon in 1883,
by prohibiting the expectation Of wheat to
Peru.
A terrific aerial tidal wave swept over
Colon on Saturday, July 18th, at about Z 10
o'clock in the evening, ami which occasiored
much momentary alarm although doing no
damage beyond stripping some zinc from
house tops and finging down sgn-boards.
There was much rain at the time, but the
weather was otherwise calm. Whilst men,
tioring the weather, by tile way, we might
warn mariners trading to Colon to keep
their weather eyes winking" during the
next four or five months, as this is probably
a norther year. So, at least, experienced
residents tell us.
Captain Charles Smith of the Pacific Mail
harbor steamer Maria died at Panama be-
fore the steamer sailed, and his remains
were buried III the cemetery there.
The little republic of Costa Rica, which
has only 100000 Inhabitants, has decided to
eXpend $4,000 for the display of her vari-

enterprise of many of the States of the

strip to the settlers thereon, who hold it as

city, the streets contained therein do not

to enter it and appropriate it to himself.
The matter came up before the Street
Committee OF the Supervisors yesterday
afternoon, Mr.. Clarke appearing in person
TO defend himself against the expressions
applied to him by Mr. Sutro.
In point of fact Mr.. Sutro's protest came
IN too late, because tie privilege desired by
Mr.. Clarke was granted on Monday evening
last. Clarke's sole object in appearing be-
fore the committee was to have Mr.. Sutro's
Objectionable language stricken out Of the
prtition and off the munich al records. He
objected to having it said that he is an
interl9per' and is looking on Sutro's prop
erty with "covetous eye"
The committee smied, but took no action
MIR. Sutro's representative finally volun-
teered the threatening remark to Mr. Clarke
that If he attempted to act upon the privi-
lege granted he would be arrested for tres
pass.

selor. " will meet you half way in Jerusa-
lem, Jericho or Joppa."
