Ladies' luncheons are the vogue, and

gave pretty one the other day, at
which n group of bright-faced girls as
sisted in black bengaline froclSs, with

anthemums. One of the prettiest
dresses of the occasion was pale
green brocade, outlined at the bottom
by and odd roll of the material. The
bodice was embroidered with white Jet
in corselct fashion, and there were
green velvet pulled sleeves.
A graceful gown in black lowered
satin had pink and gold shot velvet
sleeves, and dark green bengaline
frocll had bands of blush green and
black velvet to outline the basque,
which has almost hidden under white
chysanthcmums.

A pink velvet affair worn we'll back

trimmed with pink chrysanthemums

The girl who wore it wore also a long

up with triple shoulder capes edged
with sable.
There were two or three women in

One of the most fashionable cstab-

the loud colors affected by good many
home-bred specimens. Miss Pauline
was on Fifth avenue, block or two be-
low the ex-secretary's house, this morn
ing, in n tailor dress that would serve as
model for an ingenious young girl in
search of n winter outfit up with the
times but not frantically striving to get
ahead of them. Her gown was gray
ish green cloth, with plain skirt, lar-
ing slightly and scallopcd ut the bot
tom. The scallops were finished with
narrow black soutachc and above them
was simple pattern of embroidery.
Miss Whitney's coat bodice turned back
from the shoulders in embroidered re-
vers, which met just far enough above
the waist to allow for three buttons.
AT the waist line the coat was cut off
square in Spencer fashion, the long
tails starting from under the arms and
being lined with shot silk, green, with
dull crimson dashcs. A plain silk vest
was set in between the coat revers
The coat sleeves were SO far modified as
to puff a little at the shoulders, and en-
broidered pocket guards, which, how
ever, it would not be safe to assume
concealed pockets, were set upon the
skirt on either side.
Miss Pauline wore dark green felt
hat with green plumes.
Not at all sensational outfit! No;
but perhaps the better worth describ-
ing.
If you won't wrongfully suspect me
of a purpose to give this young woman
more than her rightful share of free adj
vertising I will add to her street cos
tune the frocl she wore at the theater
last evening. Her skirt of gray blue
bengaline had a narrow black velvet
ruffle at the foot shadowy lines of
darker gray and blue blocked it off in
to indistinct plaids, and across the
furry stripes and bars wandered yet
moro dimly flower sprays and vines
A folded black velvet girdle fastened
the waist, and over the blouse bodice
fell a sleeveless black lace jacket
reaching below the hips, rounded away
in front and straight behind. Big

and Il tremendous hustle in the small
but gorgeous apartment, where the
madame of the robes stands waiting in
state and ceremony, and where busy
slaves of the robes sit cross-leggcd on
che floor like Turks or tailors, because
the delicate silks must not be suffered
to hing down from chairs.
1t was ut such Il ceremony that was
witness on Tuesday. A young matron
of the One Hundred and Fifty was be-
ing fitted to her gown for the Patriarchs'
ball. The gown itself was worthy of
the function. 1t was of whipcord silk, in
yellowish creamy shade The skirt
was straight, plain, tlaring in Il train of
moderate extent behind and finished
simply with five narrow rufflcs of an
tique lace. The low French waist was
longer than the empire modes now all
but universal, close fitting and trimmed
with lace bretelles, which met in a
point in front and behind, disappearing
under II belt of turquoise passementerie.
The sleeves were deep, and very full
lace rufilcs, with creamy velvet leaves
embroidered with turquoise, coming
down over them. The dress was sim
pie in effect, but richer than many more
elaborate ones
Even more interesting was another
fetched out for me after she of the One
Hundred and Fifty had gone away.
This second costume was for an older
woman, known in society over two
continents. 1t was n purple velvet
robe, shaped to the figure in the back,
but with flowing front of paler pur-
pie gauzc, figured with gold and
amethyst. Across the bosom the soft,
shimmcring stuff was fastened lightly
with a big velvet and ribbon bow with
long ends. There were full velvet
sleeves with gauze undcr-sleeves.
Children's evening costumes are about
as interesting as anything in the dress
line to be seen just now When the
little folks come in with the dessert,
after dinner, they are frilled and
slashed and cut rs if for an eighteenth
century ball. The sketches are drawn
from recent costumes of two little reln-
tives of Mrs Whitclaw Reid. A little
maid who was bridesmaid at one of the
weeks fashionable weddings wore a
pink bengaline smoclz frock, with n
hanging pocket and u square collar of
coffee colored lace. She had u huge
white felt hat, covered with pink vel
vet bows and white plumes, and she
carried a shower bouquet of pink car
nations.
Belonging in the trousseau of a
Thanksgiving bride were n few froclls
that may have the honor to interest
you. One was a short dress in apple
green and blush brown, with a
short coat BODICE n zouave front and a

Another outdoor rig was n blue and

and buff wainscoat. For dinner wear
was black silk frocl1, low cut Mt the

Whitney. The Whitneys arc sure to be

Is just home from abroad, will attract

How Ono American Writer Was Almost

Peculiar Methods.
From Jack Sheppard toSJesse James
the daring criminal who operates on a
large scale has been q favorite on the
stage and in fiction. Next to him in
popular interest, possibly before him, is
the great detective; and it is no small
evidence of the advance of sound ideas
among the uneducated that even in the
cheapest popular resorts the detective is
gaining and the outlaw losing favor.
From Jonathan Wild to Allan Pinker-
ton, from Vidocq to Inspector Bucket"
Whose real name was Tuckett), the ac-
tual man has been so lost in the stage
hero and character in fiction that most
people do not even know there was
real man.
Nor is the popular taste satiated. In
truth it is but VIII tied by what has been
given it, and it is as certain as any
thing in literature that q really well

1t is one of the "sights" of Wall street,
and no woman ever leaves it without
touching it with her foot, so that she
may be able to say that she has stood
where Washington once stood. The

one of the strange effects of diving is

this.usually passes away as soon as the
surface is reached, it is probably due to
the pressure of the air affecting the
lungs, and through them the brain. The

of Anna Katherine Green. She longed
for place in the higher walks of litera

LOACH'S CASE.
His Wife Honored Him with a
Visit Yesterday.
How the Indian Satisfied the Off,
GERS that he had not Violated
Federal Law.

The wife OF Loach the Indian sent up
from Mesa for drunkenness called at
the Jail yesterday to see him.
The pair was permitted to survey the
country from the top OF the court house
so Loach got better view than he has
had since he was locked up.
Loach was not alone in his drunken
ness but he was the ringleader and an
attempt was made to show that he had
supplied his brethren contrary to the
wishes of the Great Father at Wash
ington.
Loach denied that he had settled the
bottle before his neighbor and made a
satisfactory explanation. The Indians
had gathered the grapes Of which the de-
moralizing drink was made. Surely
the law would not deny the grapes.
Neither would it refuse water. Sun
shine is also free to the Indian and

cept fermentation which came OF its
own accordp That's how the Indians
got drunk and was Loach to blame ?
