HELPFUL HINTS,
Facts About the Latest Fall Styles In
Dress skirts.

Facts About the Latest Fall STYLES in
Dress skirts.
For the past year skirts have seemed
so important that one naturally begins
with them, though the fit and style of
the bodice surely have more effect upon
the general appearance. For street
wear skirts must escape the floor; ball
gowns will have slight dip, resting
slightly on the tloor as the wearer
moves; demi-trains allow five inches
on the ground for carriage, dinner and
such toilettes, though as a rule. young
ladies do not like demi-trains. The
immense two yard trains are seldom
seen, even wedding and matrons' re-
ception gowns have a modest amount
of the goods trailing over the floor.
All skirts, except the extreme STYLES,
are from three and one-half to four
yards in width; the extremists have
them from five to seven yards While
heavy stitfening has gone out, many
still use facing of sleazv crinoline to
the knees, with the usual lining. which
is shaped like and sewed with the out
side. Nelveteen binding on the edge
has become the universally accepted
finish, and now comes in lengths of
three, four and five yards In place
of belt at the waist turn the top of
the skirt over on the wrong side and
cord or face it, This allows the skirt
to fall below the waist-line and saves
one belt around the waist-Emma NJ.

Thinble Rigging.

During a little pedestrian trip a gentle
man came unexpectedly upon n country

ground found a thimblerig establish
ment in full work. Notwithstanding
the remonstrances of his companion,
the gentleman, who was a bit of a
madcap, insisted on watching the game
Now, would the gentleman like to
wager crown that he could find the

Yes, was the reply
The money was on both sides dcpos-
tied and the pedestrian, lifting up the
thimble. pointed out the required pea
and took the stakes.

loser, and the trick was accomplished

The affair was allowed to drop, but
certain strange rumors were in the air.

said one Of the men, releasing the BOYS
arm.
Give me my money" cried the boy.
"'Ill go if you'll give me my money"
Then came an explanation. The boy
had bought two cigars at the bar of
the hotel and declared that he had
given the clerk one hundred dollar
bill in payment. He was offered nine
S1y cents in change, and upon refusing
TO take it was hustled into the street.
His statement was contradicted by
the clerk, who insisted that he had re-
ceived one. dollar bill from the lad
and returned the correct sum in silver
coin The policeman looked perpleXcd.
and the crowd listened attentively to
the two stories. The lad had recovered
voice and Self-control and was per-
sistent in his accusat on. Finally, the
policeman ad vised him to go before n
magistrate with his grievance, and to
this the youth consented
On the following morning the lad re-
peated his account of the affair before
the magistrate, and explained clearly
the strange position in which he was
placed. His name was William Daw-
son. He had been acting as body-serv-
ant to naval officer, and had returned
within few days from long voyage.
The officer had given him the one hun
dred-dollar bill, and he had intended
taking it to his mother, who lived in
BALTIMORE However, he had stayed
longer in New York than he had at
first expected to, and, having spent his
small bills. had purposely gone into the
barroom of the great hotel and bought
the cigars for the sake of changing his
treasure. The magistrate could not
shake the young fellows faith in his
own share of the transaction, and sent
for the hotel clerk
The clerk, whose name was Howard,
arrived in the courtroom accompanied
by several relatives and friends. he
was a young man of fine appearance,
was well connected and bore a good
character He treated the charge with
contempt. and sneered at Dawson's

port. The vessel named by Dawson
had returned during the previous week
from a distant station, the crew had
been paid off, and there was Lieut..
Summers in the list of officers, but he
could not be found.
The incident had found its way into
print, and the public was becoming
more and more interested in the fate
of the friendless colored boy aud his
lost money. The magistrate was urged
by Towards friends to dismiss the
charge against him, and, as Dawson
could not substantiate his story, final
hearing was decided upon and the day
and the hour for it publicly announced.
When the time came the courtroom
was thronged by eager spectators.
They made no secret of their sympathy
for the lad, who entered in charge of a
policeman, and looked like prisoner
instead of an accuser. Howard was
self-possessed and talked cheerfully to
his crowd of supporters. The magis-
trate was perfectly impartial and de-
liberately reviewed each mans story.
81 am requested" he said with much
feeling, mot only to dismiss the COM
plant, but to prosecute the accuser.
This seems to me unwise, as am inn
pressed with one fact. Dawson be-
lieves that he is telling the truth Here
he stands. penniless and friendless-"
A noise at the door interrupted the
magistrate, and tall man in citizens
dress made his way TO the bench. Daw-
son sprang forward with wild cry of
joy, and the newcomer addressed the
magistrate:
