cific Railroad company against J. F.
Ellis, which was decided in the State

material was the latest, crepon. The skirt of this was plain also-what has become, I wonder, of all those false prophets that predicted the downfall of plain draperies?-nnd had q small quilt ing at the edge. The bodice was short an1 full and adorned with two short ruiIies as heading over yoke of gui- pure lace. Narrow velvet ribbons went from the top of the bodice up to the shoulder, caught with bow. The full sash belt was also of fine velvet. The sleeves were puffed, with lace cuffs. The hat was broad of brim, all covered with chiffon, and had big heliotrope bow of numerous loops for trimming.
 Number four was a little plainer in cut, although extremely rich in effect. The material was fail1e, the color that beautiful new shade of green. Do you know it? It isn't grass, and it isn't reseda, and it isn't lily, and it isn't lol tus. It is something between the lily and the lotus-a little duller than the former, a little softer than the latter. And if you can at all stand the shade, by all means get a gown of it; for as- sure you, upon the word of an eminent authority, that it is the coming color. And 1t can be made up becomingly with so many different shades. It looks well combined with green several shades lighter, with cream, with old rose, with pale yellow. And this last is what number four had used for the trimming of her gown. No, it wasn't pale yellow, either. It was different from that. The very nearest thing I lean lilken 1t to is the color of the inside of the skin of an orange. Just put this with the new green and you'll get some idea of the beauty of the combination. The bod ice was cut long and coat-shaped; not so long, however, as we have been cutting our bodices all win ter. They are trifle shorter now, even the longest of them, and a great many are quite short. Coats also are either longer or shorter, as one pleases. The old dthree-quarter length, which was unbecoming to so many, has had its day, and many woman will no doubt breathe sigh of relief at learning of it.
 But, let me see. I was describing 8 green faille costume before wandered. Well, this coat-shaped bodice had a front of lace down as far as the waist, and over this was deep facing of vel vet of that peculiar yellow shade. It was collar originally, but didn't stop at the neck. Instead, it ran down each side, narrowing gradually until it reached the waist, where it was nothing more than point. The cuffs, too, which were very wide, had trimming of the velvet.
 Do you know that ornaments in cro- chet are coming widely into favor? They have such rich effect, and then you can always have them the exact

shade of your gown matched and de- signed to suit yourself. Entire girdles are crocheted in beautiful fine designs, and those big ornaments also that are used so much to trim the sides of the skirt. Now that buttons are being used at the hips, the crocheted ones are very popular. There is so much opportunity given for originality, and a clever wom- an may sketch her own design, either of button, girdle or ornament, and feel quite sure that she is wearing some thing not likely to be duplicated, which sensation is only too rare these latter days.

New Features of the Parade In Washington
 on Sept. go.
 WASHINGTON, April 1.-The passage by the Senate last week of an appropria- tion of $400, 900 to aid in defraying the expenses of the National Encampment, G. A. R., next September, has greatly encouraged and enthused those in charge of the arrangements for the affair. In addition to this sum, the citizens com mittee expect to raise $60. 900, of which over $30, ,OOO have already been sub sCribedS and every cent will be needed. The books of the committee show that more posts have been booked and quar- tered than at any previous encampmen5 so far ahead of the date of meeting. The number disposed of thus early is unpre. cedented, and presages, in the opinion of the committees, an attendance of 300, 000 people.
 One of the features of the parade will be the unusually large number of mounted officers. In this respect the encGmDment will eclipse anything ever seen in the history of the Grand Army lhe staff of the chief aggregates fully 200 men, and all of them will be mounted. The same can be said of the various department com manders. Another feature of tine parade will be the addition, for the first time of the National Association of Naval Veterans. This body contains member ship of several thousand, and their yearly meeting will be held in Baltimore the same week of the encampment. On tha day of the parade they propose to come to Washington in 8 body and participate.

WOMAN sometimes knows what she wants. Two hardy women from Los Angeles, appeared at the land office in Santa Fe, couple of weeks ago, and filed upon homesteads which they had located. The land is on the eastern slope of the Zuni mountains. and in order to reach the place the women had to travel eighteen miles from the rail road station, walking much of the time, because of the bad roads, and often wading through two feet of snow. A number of men were waiting at the railroad settlement for the snow to thaw, so that they could locate claims, but the women said they had no time to wait, and they waded through the snow. A Michigan syndicate had bought BOG, ,OOO acres of railroad land in that region, planned improvements and projected lumber mills, and as the indi- cations were that three or four hundred people were planning to found a colony there, the women thought they saw a big future and they put in their home stead claims

Tn recent article on meteorological phenomena, in theirvralation to certain questions noNv much discussed, Cali fornia writer argues thatthe amount of moisture in the atmosphere is much greater than is generally supposed, it's capacity for sustaining moisture de- pending mainly upon it's temperature; thus. the atmosphere at 100 degrees Fahrenheit at the eapth's surface is capable of sustaining, in an invisible form, moisture to one-fifteenth of its weight, or an equivalent of one pound of water to every inch of area-it be- ing thus readily seen what'an immense volume of water may possibly be dis charged over any given area when the atmosphere and electric conditions are favorable for it's sudden condensation, as in the case of what are called cloud bursts. Of the latter, this writer re- marks, in explanation, that warm cur rents of air, highly charged with mois- ture, are frequently waited by winds over mountains, where they meet with a cold atmosphere or Q cold current, which suddenly forms dense black clouds, that sometimes drop their mois- ture in prodigious cataracts of rain ''cloud bursts," as they are usually %arroad

AN AsToNIsHED SOVEREIGN.

How tho Pasha Was Outwlttod by 8
 Bright Lieutenant.
 Kassim Pasha. when minister of war for Egypt, was very particular as to the personal appearance of his officers and issued stringent orders that they should never appear unshaven in pulp lie. One day he met upon the street 8 lieutenant who had bearded the pasha and disregarded his orders. ''To what regiment do you belong?" demanded the indignant minister. "To the - regiment at Abasseuh," replied the frightened lieutenant. Get into my carriage at once so that can carry you to the encampment and have you pub licly punished" was the stern command which followed. The young man obeyed and the twain rode gloomily enough for some time, when the pasha stopped his carriage and entered an office where he would be detained for some time on business. Seizing the op- portunity the culprit sprang from the vehicle, darted into boring barber's stall, and rcgained his post be- fore the return of his jailer, minus his beard. For the remainder of the route the officer buried his face in his hands and seemed the picture of apprehension. Abasseuh was reached at last and all the officers were assembled to witness the degradation of their col2rade, who all the while kept well in the rear of his chief. Come forward, you son of a dog!" cried the irate pasha, when there stepped before him &n officer with face as clean as baby's and a look of the most supreme innocence. His ex- cellency gave one look of blank astonishment and then, with an appre- ciative smile breaking over his war worn features, turned to the assembled officers and said: Here, gentlemen, your old minister is q fool and your young lieutenant is captain. ."-Levant Herald,
