FASHION NOTES.

Corkscrcw bengalines are new and
stylish.
The law has been laid down: Short
skirts, and only short skirts, are to be
worn in the street.
A new navy-bluc serge has a single
thread-stripc of deep green, and is
pronounced very stylish.
Cream white, old pink and light
blue seem to be the colors selected for
young girls evening costumes.
New skirts for the street do not
touch the ground, but house-skirts are
almost all made with short trains.
The handsome French challics are
"the thing" Tho pulled sleeve fall
ing over the elbow is good model.
Accordion-plaitod skirts of surah or
India, with plated waists in sailor
fashion, are rather new and effective.
Wide-brimncd hats, with an
abundance of ostrich- plume trimming,
will be popular for early-summer
wear.
Bodice effects reached by means of
bands of ribbon are often seen, and
are especially affected in evening
gowns.
The pretty colored Henriettas are
well adapted for this purpose, and
with yokes of Irish lace are very
stylish.
The dotted or sprigged lawns are
trimmed with ruffies embroidered IN
the dominating color and with knots
and sireamers of ribbon.
One of the new ideas is q black
satin bodice and skirt of some dark,
rich cloth. Indeed, black satin Us a
waist material is quite to the fore.
The crisp, clean-looking French
batistes, the poetic .fower-strewn Or
CANDIES, tho neat-palterned linen
lawns and ginghans all make pretty
negliges for warm weather.
The white dotted swisscs, the plaided
nainsooks, and bishops lawn. launder
we'll and are made up with plated or
gathered rufflcs, torchon lace, and
ribbons Of pale green, mauve, or
blue.
Sensible and pretty house robes are
made of the fine French or Scotch
hannels in stripes or figures; pale gray
and pink, marine-blue and ponceau,
Nil and heliotrope are among the new
bleadings; these gowns are usually
made with yolks or IN tho loose prln-
cesse shape and trimmed with lace
and ribbon.

TIE NEW SILKS.

its limitations, and wisely adapt them

The new chene silks are soft and take

JEWELS FOR EMBROIDERY.


The employ yment of imitation jewels
in connection with embroidery and
their use upon fancy knick-knacks Is
very popular among workers in dec
oraiive arts, as they impar to such
articles a sparkling effect which is very
good If carefully managed so rs to
CLEAN out UNEXPECTEDLY and in un-
looked-for places. The jewels are in
great variety of tints, representing
pink and yellow topazes, emeralds,
rubies, snpplires, diamonds. opals and
aqua marines. Two holes are ready
pierced in each stone, by which il can
be sewed on. The stitches which hold
the stone down should be as invisible
as possible, aud fine sewing silk MS
nearly matching tho color of the stone
as possible should be used. A mistake
easily made is the mixing of half n
dozen colors and kinIs of stones upon
the same piece of embroidery. Two or
three colors give the best result

A report comes to E. F. Kellnel from Fred Knox, who Is making the preliminary survey for the San Diego & Phoenix railroad He writes from Agua Caliente that he is getting along nicely. His measurement makes the distance from Phoenix to Agua Caliente S7 miles.
 No trouble has been encountered in securing rights of way. The people along the line are pleased to know that Phoenix is to have this direct connection with the coast at San Diego. Every indi- cation points to speedy conclu sion of the work and when this survey is completed the work of building the road is expected to be started as soon as it is possible to get ready for it.
 Meanwhile the work progresses from the San Diego end of the line. The road will be built and that as soon as money and labor can per form the task.-Phoenix Herald.

A Narrow Escape.

Help, help, man overheard was the cry at the Rail- road bridge Monday even- ing, just as the express pulled out, when J. s. Carter, came running for the life line, in Jose de la Osa's office. Quicker than written, strong hands had hold of the line, and it was thrown to little Percy Wilkinson, who in attempting to get his hat, which had fallen into the river, lost his balance, and fell into the mad stream below For tunately for the little fellow he fell into the water close to the pier, over the side of which hung a large cable, the end of which he caught in his hands. The rolling, seething currant, swept him into the edge of the whirlpool, into which he was drawn ont ot sight for several seconds. The crowd of bystanders that had gathered, shuddered as they thought that the poor boy was gone, but he hung on like a major, and came to the surface, when the life line was thrown to him, which he caught and held to, until he was drawn up to the top of the pier. It was very narrow and fortunate escape, Percy is 8 son of T. B. Wilkinson Agent of the s. P. R. R. at this place.
