- ~ edge. Its skirts
In AA'SNA o will be full and
long, reaching well below the knee,
but the best dressers will not lend
their countenance to the extremes
that have been noticed in this direc-
ton. A gentleman'sfrock coat should
not appear DESTROYS of emulating the
street-sweeping style Of women's
gowns. The favorite materials will
be the rough makes of black cheviots
or shetlands, black or gray vicunas,
uncut worsteds and rough faced coat
ings in Oxford and Cambridge mix
lures. The cutaway coat has under
gone some changes. Like the frock-
coat it will have three buttons, but
it will be worn much longer than
heretofore, the skirts fitting very
closely and the front well cut away,
tapering to a narrOwness behind
almost equaling that of an evening
dresscoat. The materials will be the
same as for the frock.
Vests will be mostly double-brea
ed and usually of the same material
as the coat, though as the season ad-
vances many fancy and white vests
will be worn. There is no lack of
variety in patterns for fancy vests.
One new design will be sure to at
tract notice, whether or not it finds
favor, especially among visitors to
the Worlds Fair. 1t shows on col
ored ground a little group represent
ing the landing of Columbus. Sack
suitings will vary according to taste,
though there is decided tendency to
sober shades, black being the founda-
ton of several patterns that promise
to be popular. The coats will be
made with three buttons, and will
be single-breasted. The double
breasted sack or REFER will be rele-
gated by the best dressers to it's
proper sphere-the deck of a yacht.
Small Stripes for Trousers.
For trousers the favOrite materials
will be cashmeres and cheviots in
small stripes. Plaids and checks will
be few and far between, and, in fact,
the tendency all around is to subdued
effects. They will be cut fairly
straight, rather narrower at the bot
tom, fitting we'll on the boot. There
will be three styles of overcoat worn
the Covert. the Chesterfield and
the Kennel coat. The Covert will be
made in the darker shades chiefly,
and the Chesterfield will be worn
considerably longer, and will be made
mostly in rough finished goods, and
in the Oxford and Cambridge mix
lures. The Kennel coat is novelty.
1t is an overcoat, of course, but it
will sometimes be worn without an
undercoat. 1t is very long, reaching
almost to the ankle, and is cut single
breasted with fly front and wide
,lapels at the back. 1t fits fairly to
the shape, and the skirts fall from
two crows feet worked in silk so that
no buttons show anywhere. 1t has
three flap pockets, which are cut
crescent-shaped, and the sleeves are
finished with false cuff. tits made
chiefly in the Covert coat materials,
and is especially adapted for coaching
or race-course purposes, though some
in dark materials have been seen on
the street. The proper overcoat to
wear with evening dress is the
Inverness.
Hats that Are the Proper Caper.

there is a decided tendency to the

shade-black, dark-brown, coffee

favorities. They are made with
