4 press Of the Thirteenth Centnry.

The oldest dress in the world is prob
ably that described by French traveller
in Japan. 1t belonged to an Empress Of
Japan who lived in the thirteenth CEN
tury, and it has been kept all these con-
turies in a temple near \ okonama, where
the priests sometimes exhibit it for a
sufficient reward. 1t is kept III an old
ccffer, and it is shrouded in white silk.
The robe or robes, for there are seven of
them, are described as a diaphanous
mass, crumbiing at the edges with decay.
The material is crepe or some hInny stuff,
and the effect must be like that worn by
Loie Fuller. 1t is made with long train,
pagoda sleeves and high collar like
MedIcis cuff. The upper layer was once
white, and is now the color of ivory, en-
broidered with flying birds the size OF
crows, with dragons heads, green, blue
and violet Then come several layers OF
silk muslin, yellow, blue, violet. old
gold and green, on which seem scattered
strange animals, all in flight. The sew
enth, which touches the body of the long
dead Empress, is violet embroidered
with figures like phantoms. The en-
broidery on this wonderful robe is said
TO be as transparent as the gauze. The
effect of the whole is smoke -colored.-

Gone out of Fashion.

The small lace mask wells have quite
gone out of fashion. a vel now must
entirely cover the chin, and is worn much
more loosely than has been the custom
for the past few years. Instead of fitting
smoothly over the face it is gathered uD
in folds at the side ami fastened at the
back OF the head. Tissue and grenadine
wells are much worn this spring in col
ors to match the hats.

THE ONYX MINES.
Rich Deposit of Stone in Columbia and
Garfield Counties.


DAYTON, Jan 17.-tSpeciaL For the past
three months much has been said and written
concerning the opal and onyx mines OF Garfield
county. From specimens received and thor
ough investigation into the matter, il is an es-
tablishei fact that Garfield county is rich in
onyx The ledge has been traced for ten miles,
but its width has not been determined. How
ever. the proprietors of the property are so san
guine OF success, that machinery for dressing
the stone has been ordered, and will be set up
in Pataha City. 3
A prospector. named Richardson, from the
Tukanon, twenty miles from Dayton, came to
the city yesterday, bringing specimens of rock
which he found two months ago. lie was not
familiar with the formation, AID brought 1t in
10 find out what ii was. specimen was taken
TO J. +. Edmlston, who pronounced il onyx at
sight The specimens exhibited merely
Groupings, and are of different color from the
Garfield onyx Mr. Richardson has not done
enough work on the ledge To determine the ex-
tent, but, now that he has found out that il is
valuable stone, Will do some developing. The
specimens indicate that the onyx is of the pure
est brown color. with beautiful green jsspery
zones, properly called jasp-onyx.
The silver excitement on Tukanon has about
died out. but it 10 liable To break out in the
Touchct in the early spring, gs some fine speci-
mems OF float were picked up on the creek late
this fall The specimen found was as black on
the outside the basalt, which is the country
rock OF this neIghborhood. II is thought that q
careful prospector can find the ledge. The
specimen found wa almost solid ore. and con-
tsins Ruby silver and bromide. As the hasaltic
