the woman he loves won't have hfm.
God means every man to hold up his
own weight in this world. I'd as soon
knock a woman down as throw the
blame Of wasted life upon her."
Pocahontas listened with her eyes on
the folded hands in her lap, realizing for
the first time how deeply the man beside
her loved her. Would any other man
ever love her with such grand unselfish-
ness, she wondered; ever give all, re-
ceive nothing in return and still give on.
Why could not she love him? Why was
her heart still and speechless and only
her mind responsive. He was worthy of
any woman's love; why could not she
give him hers?
Ask the question how she would, the
answer was always the same, She did
not love him; she could not love him,
but the reason was beyond her.
After little while &im spoke again.
"When you were little GIRL" he said,
81 always was your knight. In all our
plays and troubles it was always me you
wanted. My boat was the one you liked
best, and my dog and horse would come
to your whistle as quickly as to mine.
wac CAO OuS always W care 4OT you anu
carry out Your will. That can never be
again, knee, but don't forget me,
Princess. Let the thought of your old
friend come to you sometimes, not to
trouble you, only to remind you when
things are hard and rough and you need
comfort that there's heart in the world
that would shed its last drop to help
you"
With quick impulse Pocahontas leaned
forward and caught his hand in hers,
and before he could divine her intention
bent her head and laid her soft, warm
lips against it. When she lifted her
eyes to his there were tears in them, and
her voice trembled as she said: 81 will
think of you often, old friend; of how
noble you are, and how unselfsh. You
have been generous to me all my life,
far more generous than have ever de-
served"
AS they arose to return to the house
the jasmine blossom fell from the girls
hair to the ground at Jim's feet. He
stopped and raised it. MAY keep it?''
he said.
She bowed her head silently.

heading of black feather trimming.
Over this wear big coat, three-quar-
ter length, of gray also, with loose
fronts hanging plain. The material
should be very heavy Bedford cord.
The coat has great, long sleeves that
hang almost to the bottom of the coat
and are trimmed with fur to match, as
well as the fronts and the collar. The
coat is lined with just the same shade
of silk, sprinkled all over with butter
lics. 1t is just as pretty as can be.
Then there should be q dress OF
crcpon. This comes in so many pretty
shades that it is hard to select one, but
green is good one to get. There is q
shade of pale or dull green to match al
most every complexion, and SO it is q
good color to have. Crepon clings so to
the figure that slim and stout alike can
wear it with equal propriety. --.A<s
Then the vicuna suitings are dresses
for all-around wear. They're extremely
soft, Just as soft as camel's hair, and
very much cheaper. They come in those
faint, undefnable shades, soft BLUSH
gray or grayish blue, and brownish
cream and grayish green. They're all
very pretty and becoming

FOSTER ARRIVES.
Tho Secretary of the Treasury Much Bene'
fitted by His Trip to Europe.

New YoRK, March 49, When the
steamboat Laura NJ. Starin, with Secre-
tary Foster aud party on board, reached
the pier foot of Twenty third street, the
Secretary entered Il carriage that was in
waiting and which contained his wife
and daughter. The party were at once
driven to the Fifth Avenue Hotel.
DR.. Hamilton, who is one of the party
that accompanied the Secretary on his
recent trip, said to a reporter that the
trip across was very pleasant, but great
deal of rough weather was experienced
on the return voyage. He said that the
sea was so rough on Tuesday that several
passengers were thrown down and in
jured. Among them was the Secretary,
who was thrown to the floor just as he
WAS rising from the breakfast table.
He received cut over the right eye,
which is still black and blue, but sus-
tanned no serious injury.
The Secretary's health, the doctor
said, could not be better
Speaking of his visit to London, Secre-
tary Foster said; sit will be understood

stand before the altar and plight he'll
troth. All, but how pretty it is! My
eyes rest lovingly upon it as she slips
into it. 1t is made of the softest and
richest of white silk, and at the bottom
of the skirt is a wide ruifle Of lace,
caught every once in awhile with
small bowknot. The court train spreads
out in the back in all its magnifcence.
The waist is made very soft and is
brought around in small folds fastened
under the arm. A deep fall Of lace, high
on each shoulder, is brought down to
V in the back and the front. The fair
maid is modest, and so she wears high
collar that conceals the line Of her love-
ly throat. Her veil is of tulle and falls
gently down upon the train and spreads
out in the back like halo, and she
looks fit for king.
Her bridesmaids suit her well, they
are so simple in their gowning. Their
dresses are Of white, too, but corduroy,
and they fall plain and straight to the
ground with no adornment whatsoever.
The waists are also made plain and
adorned with a deep lace yoke. They
wear long white sashes tied in big
bow at the front, little to one side.

did not see the trousseau of this
bride, but know she was a sensible
girl, and know about what she would
have in it.
I'm sure there would be one gray
dress, at any rate, and here is a pretty
way to have it made. Skirt plain, with
q short train and row of gray passe-
menterie at the bottom; the bodice cut
at the top in rounded tabs, like deep
scallops, which are also trimmed with
passementerie and the yoke striped with
it also. 1t must be very soft trimming,
or it will spoil the effect. Have the
sleeves plain and tight, with big loose
over-puff at the top, also striped with
the passementerie.
Or here is another gray costume: A
fine material, dotted with very small
black and gray silk polka dots, a deep
black silk fringe at the bottom, with

serge is a good safe dress to have. IT
VIII last in al weathers; if made
prettily, can be utilized for all sorts of
occasions, and anyone getting a really
good one win feel well repaid. It is well
to get the serge in dark shade.
For real dainty dress Of the newest
material get one Of those suits which
are imported all ready to be made up
saw an exquisite one yesterday Of the
finest reseda cloth, with the edge enn-
broidercd in a graceful vine. The leaves
were done in silk in their natural
shades, and the flowers In seed pearls
pale pink. pale blue and cream. Oh, it
was SO pretty! There was another with
the same border, br1t the ground was a
dull pinlky chocolate. There ought to
be tweed or cheviot in every trous-
seau, which locks well made up with a
plain dark shade. .w
Buta trousseau without travelling
cloak is not trousseau at all. And
know OF one that will just suit the fair
young bride. It is Of gray Russian
cloth, made long, Of course reaching to
her foot. At the bottom is broad baaIa
Of black passementeric, and passemen-
terie of similar pattern, but narrow,
goes from head to foot. The cloak is
confined at the waist by broad band
of black. 1t has long cape, full half
length, and trimmed very deliberately
with passementerie, as you will see in
the sketch. The shoulder bands are
very broad and run down. narrowed,
almost to the edge of the cape. A cor
responding band trims the cape at the
edge Of each front piece, and there are
narrow ones in between. The collar
also is adorned with passementerie
The hat that goes with the cloak is of
gray velvet, with g. wreath of violets at
the edge, which stands little higher at
the front, together with an aigrette.
Pearl gray gloves complete the cos
tune.
Or this: A long cloak of dark, soft
brown cloth, buttoned on each hip with
four great rough pearl squares; short
cape, only to the waist, no trimming
whatsoever save very full vest of an
exquisite quality of brown faille. 1t is
extremely rich in its effect.
If the fair young bride has all these
in her trousseau she need have no fear
for gowns. All she need see to now is
that her wardrobe is well filed with
undergarments, made dainty enough to
suit her fair form, with good stock of

COURT OF APPEALS.
All Nominations F;svOrably Acted Upon
Except One, Which Will be To-Day.


Except One, Which VIII be To-Day.
WASHINGTON, March 49, The long
pending contest over the nomination of
Judge Woods, of Indiana, as United
States Circuit Judge of Appeals was
brought to a close after another four
hours discussion, chiefly one-sided, pro-
ceeding almost exclusively from the
Senators VINO opposed confirmation.
1t was expected that Two at least of
the Democratic Senators would vote for
confirmation, but This did not happen.
On the contrary, the vote proceeded on
strict party lines with the exception that
Mr.. PETER (Alliance) voted against the
confirmation.
The absence of several Republican Sem
ators without pairs made it unexpectedly
close, the final roll call being 20 for con-
firmation to "a against.
All the other judicial nominations
were favorably acted upon except that of
Judge Gilbert of Oregon, nominated as
Judge of Appeals. This was held up till
to-day simply to secure to Judge Nc
Kenna, nominated to fill the vacancy on
the Circuit bench of the same judicial
district occasioned by the death Of Judge
Sawyer, the precedence which follows
from priority of confirmation.

In the dining room at Lanarth stood
Pocahontas, an expression Of comical
dismay upon her face, pile Of dusty
volumes on the floor at her feet. The
bookcase in the recess by the fireplace,
with yawning doors and empty shelves,
stood swept and garnished, awaiting re-
possession. In a frenzy of untimely
cleanliness she had torn all the books
from the repose of years, and now that
the deed was beyond recall she was a
prey to disgust and given over to repent
ance. The morning promised to be sui
try, and the pile was very big. Outside,
bugs and bees and other wise things
hummed and sang in leafy places, the
leaves on the magnolias were motionless
and the air asleep.
A butterfly, passing to his siesta on
the bosom of a rose, paused an instant
on the window ledge to contemplate her
foolishness; the flowers in the borders
hung their heads. Berkeley passed the
open window, looking cool and fresh in
summer clothing, and Pocahontas,
catching sight of him, put her fingers to
her lips and whistled sharply to attract
his attention, which being done, she fol-
lowed up the advantage with panto-
mimic gestures indicative of despair and
need of swift assistance. Berkeley
turned good naturally, and came in to
the rescue, but when he discovered the
service required Of him he regarded it
with aversion, and showed q mean de-
sire to retreat, which unworthiness was
promptly detected by Pocahontas and as
promptly frustrated.
"Do help me, Berkeley" she entreated.
''They must all be put in place again be-
fore dinner, and it only wants a quarter
to one now. can't do it all before half
past two, to save my. life, unless you help
me. You know mother dislikes messy,
Uttered room, and I've got your favorite
pudding for dessert. Oh, dearl I'm tired
to death already, and it's SO warmT The
rising infection of her voice conveyed
an impression Of heat intense enough to
drive an engine.
"What made you do it2" inquired
Berkeley in tone calculated to make
her sensible of folly.
Mother asked me to dust the books
some time ago, but neglected it, and
this morning when the sun shone on
them saw that their condition was dis
graceful. was so much Disguised with
my untidiness that dragged them all
out on the impulse Of the moment, and
only realized how hotit was, and how /
hated it, after the deed was done. Come,
Berke, do help me. I'm SO tired"
Thus adjured, Berkeley laid aside his
coat, for lifting is warm work with the
sun at the meridian. The empty shirt

One Woman who Is a Terror.

'Here's something rather novel and
amusing in the way of business ar
rangement," said the man on the cor
ner to the other man. ''Our firm has a
travelling man whose wife is what is
commonly termed a terror. She regu-
lates her husband in every particular,
draws his salary and doles it out to him,
comes in and raises Sancho with the
house If he is out too long, and makes
herself generally obnoxious. AL the
men in the Office are afraid Of her, and
You would laugh to see them scatter off
and get very busy when she appears.
Well, sir, this year the firm wanted to
cut that drurnrner's salary down, and
how do you think they did it? They
knew his wife would make things live
Iy if she knew his salary was decreased,
SO they fixed it up between them that
his pay was to be reduced, but that his
wife was to draw the old account, and
that, as the drummer had a little bank
account, he would make matters square
with the firm at the end of the year.
How's that for terrorizing ability-one
little one hundred and thirty pound
woman holding under her thumb her
husband and a whole firm besides?"-
