Tasteful and Becoming limitations.

To provide for the fashion of wearing
bands at the edge of the dress skirt and
otherwise there are certain woven
textiles which bear close resemblance
to fur. A new close short-pile silk
plush that can hardly be distinguished
from beaver at short distance is econ
omically used in place Of that fur
There is also a production of French
looms SO like the expensive Persian
lamb that an expert alone would detect
the difference. Gray and black astra-
khan are likewise admirably copied.
These imitation furs are in no way
common or dowdy; they are very much
worn, and are really in better taste
than rabbit or catskin dyed to initiate
more expensive furs.

Brutu.ity In tho German Army.

The superior officers in the German
army are said to go upon the principle
that ill-usagc is necessary to proper
discipline. a prussian officer met a
party of men one evening at the gates
of n fortress coming home from target
practice. lie went up to one man and
asked him if he had made the right
number of points, and on being an
swered in tho negative he boxed the
mans ears and called him "a Swabian
swivel" AT Fort Albecls, near Ulm, a
man was accused of being dirty, which
does not really appear to have been
the case. He was, however, scrubbed
by some non-commissioned officers in
the presence of an officer until the
blood ran down his body The same
man, in October last year, when the
weather was cold, was taken, after
some very hard drill and when steam
ing with perspiration, to the pump.

him and ice-cold water thrown over
him by two non-commissioned officers.
He was then scrubbed all over till the
blood came again, as well as kicked
and cuffed numerically. A colonel of
engineers appears to have used most
degrading language to his men, and
one day passing by sentry who did
not, as he thought, present arms smart
ly enough he cut the man across the
face with a riding whip.

REDMoND's mission here is difficult to
comprehend He was partisan of Par
nell's when Parnell was alive and astray.
What he Is now that Parnell is dead and
away is more difficult to comprehend. In
the factional fight which was precipitated
by Parnell's personal affairs, Redmond
aligned himself with Pornell's defenders
But since Parnell is dead there seems
no use in continuing the defence now. It
is the ghost Of an issue only, that Red

he is opposing Dillon and Mccarthy who
are certainly seeking to attain the best
