was showing me yesterday a faint

breakfast party IL had flounce Of ivory
chiffon in front. and was made with a
coat with slashed fronts cut off over the
bust and with buttons over IA bodice Of
blue velvet: the round neck was veiled
with ivory chiffon caught by puffy bow;
the back formed deep girdle over vel
vet yoke; there were elbow sleeves Of
chiffon and velvet and I.eghorn hat
caught up somewhat crazily on one side
and trimmed with ribbons and orchids
For early summer wear out OF doors was
a shot silk shading from black to Roman
red, cut in vandykes at the foot and edged
with black lace over petticoat OF old
gold faille. The round, full waist was
bound with a black ribbon sash and the
frock had black velvet yoke and full
sleeves with ruffles.
Quite as picturesque as this was gown
of heliotrope China silk, trimmed with
bands of white ribbon. 1t was full
and straight on the right side, and very
short on the left, the front being cut
in peplum point. Heavy embroidered
ecru net was draped over the front
and the full waist had net bodice.

What the Newspapers Say About It.
From the Brooklyn Times.

THE PROVIDENCE News has struck a new
and valuable idea in the way Of newspaper
balloting. II offers 10 the bona hde wage earn.
inR workman who gets most votes a free trip
to Europe. paying all his expenses and giving
him every possible facility to obtain Informs
ton and asking in return that he give through
its columns an honest and unprcjudiced state
ment of the conditions of labor as he finds IL.
The offer Is open to Democrat or Republican,
free trader or protectionist, and the result Of
the fortunate explorers visit will doubtless be
q valuable contribution to the literature Of The
pending campaign.
We may add that the editor rs staunch
Republican, is not taking very serious risks
from a party stand point. II was just such an
exploring expedition as he invites n represen.
tative Providence workman TO take, that made
him one of the most earnest, as he Is one Of the
ablest, advocates Of protection in the United
States.

From The Springfield Union.

The PROVIDENCE NEWS has made q very
liberal offer to Rhode Island workingmen, and
one that should have excellent practical rc-
sults The plan Is outlined as follows;
Tho News proposes TO send at its own ex-
pense representative Rhode Island working
man 20 Great Britain to report upon the con-
dition Of workingmen there. IL will pay all
his expenses and furnish him with guide
books and all necessary information and as
sistance in laying out his route. lie will start
some time in May, and will have time enough
% do great deal of sightseeing besides inves-
tigating huts and novels and tenements.
England and Scotland are so compact that q
great deal of work and play, too, can be
crowded into . trip Of fairly generous dura-
ton
The choice Of the man who IL TO enjoy this
"trip n left with the readers Of the paper. the
only conditions being that he be one who
earns his living by daily labor and is compe-
tent and willing TO keep those who have
chosen him 70 represent them informed By
sending an occasional letter to the NEWS, CIV
ing the results of his Investigations The con-
dition Of European workingmen has been de-
scribed frequently, but IL often happens that
rsports are biassd by the economic views of
