in times of need. In this delicate ne
gotiation he was ably assisted by DIR.
Sheldon jackson, who was favorably
known to the natives by his efforts to
educate them. Last year the scheme
was successfully inaugurated, and the
first transfer of reindeer was made.
Some 200 head were purchased at about
$40 each. They were taken to Port
Clarence, and placed under the charge
Of two experienced men, who are as
sisted by four Siberian herders. OF
course it will take some time to bring
the Alaskan Indians around to the new
mode of life: but Capt. Healy is con-
vinced that they will see the advan-
tages to be derived, and soon become
interested in the breeding of reindeer.
The Bear is not only the most in
teresting vessel in our navy, but every
year she is called upon to perform the
most useful and dangerous service.
The duties of Capt Healy. who is the
only representative of our government
in the Arctic sea, are as varied as they
are difficult. Last year there were
fiftytwo whalers in the Arctic, of
which four were lost. In whalebone
alone the feet brought back over
So, 600, 900 worth. All these vessels
were under the protection of Capt.
Healy, whose duty it was to see that
none of them got caught in the ice
pack. Besides this work, the Bear, in
early summer, is commissioned to
cruise about the seal islands. and drive
off the poachers who are raiding the
rookeries. Another important duty
performed by the Bear is to board and
search each vessel entering the north
ern sea. Before the government was
represented in these waters the swim
ding of the Alaskan Indians was
recognized industry among unscrupu-
lous traders and whalers. Not only
were the natives robbed by these ras'
Gals, who got valuable furs and ivory
for mere song. but they were fast be-
coming brutalized by the cheap whisky
which thev received in exchange. This
enormity has now been almost wiped
out. thanks 70 the Bear Since Capt
Healv has been in command of this
important mission he and his crew
have rescued no less than three hum
dred shipwrecked sailors. and aided
hundreds of sick and destitute miners
and others.

If the magnifcence of the materials
for evening toilettes has any signifi-
canoe it is that the coming season will
be a very gay one. Else why these
gorgeous damasks and brocades?
What folly to expend hundreds of dol
lars on the gown Of but few nights
unless hundreds of eyes are there to
admire? We are not inclined to let
such radiancy as shines from our new
satin remain under a busheL. Rather
would we set it upon a hill, where it
cannot be hid.
There is something very fascinating
about the play of light and shade over
an exquisite evening satin, and women
are not the only ones that feel its
charm. The stuffs of this season are
of the 'stand alone" variety and con-
sist for the most part of moires and
satin brocades. Strange to say, silk
plays very small part in the magnifi-
cent array. Silk is used to SO great
an extent in street costumes that the
fair danes of fashion demand greater
richness for evening toilette. And, as
it is the simplest thing in the world to
create 4 supply to meet women's de-
mands, the beautiful importations
have crowded to our shores, the lovely
fabrics have been piled high in tempt
ing array in shop windows and the
swell modistes have been quick to sug-
gest and recommend the gown of rich
brocade.
How can I make you see these won
drous satins? Picture first an exquisite
ground of palest gold. with soft, rich
sheen, lined and splashed with the
crimson and green that have been
carelessly thrown upon it; then fancy
a deep crimson velvet that is to be
combined with the brocade and you
have some faint idea of the effect.
But exercise your imagination to
greater degree and see a multitude Of
these shining materials. Behold deli

DISCIPLINE AND CHARACTER.
The Perfect Result Of an Old Tradition
Found in Admiral Tryon's Death.

The Perfect Result OF an Old Tradition
Found in Admiral Tryon's Death.
To our minds the charm of Admiral
| Tryon's bearing in the hour OF his fate
is the perfection of the system which
for centuries has bred men capable OF
his conduct and his death. They have
not had his opportunity of being visi-
bic, not his strangely scenic surround
ings. not perhaps the temperament
which could have inspired them to
that farewell in the moment of disap-
pearance: but there have been hun
dreds of men in the navy, and even in
the merchant service, who would have
died as bravely as he did. 1t is the ira
dition Of both services-not, we think,
the order-that the highest in rank on
ship in peril must be the last to quit
the vessel; that, as occurred few
years ago, even a stowaway, who is al
most criminal in sailors eyes, must
take precedence of the captain In Sc
curing safety. The origin of the rule
is, we fancy, policy-that the state or
the owner be protected by the cap
become an etiquette and pride. and
in the records of hundreds of wrecks
you will find few in which it was ever
broken. 1.-The captain was the last to
quit the ship is the end of almost
every telegram of marine disaster. In
other words, discipline continued for
centuries under the pressure of the
same necessities and the same ideas
has extinguished in a class by no means
devoid of either faults or vices
most natural and tempting form of self
ishness, has induced whole series OF
men. many of them hardly educated,
to face slow and painful form of death
rather than fail in the performance of
a professional duty. That is wonder
full result of training, and it is one
which makes those who see it clearly
doubt whether the modern world is al
together in the right path. The old
ideal for the formation of character
was discipline, hardship, pressure, alike
from the law and from teachers and
from opinion, and it certainly pro-
duced many of the virtues, especially
that one of obedience which the world
everywhere but on shipboard- where
there axe few unrealities and men carry
their lives in their hands-has taken 10
despising. The modern idea is that
discipline even for children is an OPP
pressive thing. that it turns men into
machines, and it quenches individual
ity: that it is, in short, unpleasant.
whereas pleasantness is the end of life.
We see the result of the change in the
disappearance of many forms of OPP
preston, and a lighter atmosphere for
men to move in, but we see it also in
the slow disappearance of many noble
elements in character. The old sys-
tenn, working with good material pro-
duces as its perfect result Admiral Try
on: the new. working also on the right
material produces the British agitator.
Admiral Tryon was no doubt brave
man and a gentleman without help
from the service or its traditions, but
the service has annealed his character
into what it was, something for ma
ton to be proud of, which would hardly
have been exhibited or have existed
amid the indiscipline and softness Of
civil life.-London Spectator.

Until the question of the North pole
has been settled. anything relating to
Arctic exploration will have the most
absorbing interest for the general
reader. While Capt. Healy. who COM
handed the Bear. the steamer that
represents this country in the seas of
| the frozen north, may have views of
his own as to the most feasible way Of
| reaching the pole. he has kept them to
himself. But while others have been
busy with the great problem, he has
not allowed his wonderful chances
for observation to be idle. One of the
first things he observed while cruising
in the Behring sea was the fact that the
Siberian Esquimaux were much more
prosperous than those on the American
peninsula. As the climatic conditions
were almost alike, he became inter-
ested in this peculiar state of affairs,
and his investigations soon convinced
him that the advantages Of the
Siberians were entirely due to the
presence of the reindeer. In the
Arctic regions this useful animal not
only serves as beast of burden, but
practically solves the question of liv-
ing, for it supplies the native with
food, shelter and clothing. It's
absence among the Alaskan Es-
quimaux accounted for the great
suffering that prevails when the
fisheries fall and the seal and
walrus have been driven away by white
hunters. AS soon as Capt. Healy had
completed his Investigations he petit
toned congress to appropriate the sum
o. $4,000 for the purpose of introduc-
ing reindeer among the natives on the
American peninsula. When the bill
tailed in the house, after twice passing
the senate, he did not lose faith in his
scheme. He interested others in the
undertaking, and succeeded in raising
several thousand dollars. With the
capital at hand an unforeseen difficult
ty presented itself. The Esquimaux,
being of low order of civilization,
were full of foolish superstitions, and
their folklore had taught them to be-
leve that an awful fate would over
take the man who parted with his rein
deer. Probably no one but Capt Healy
could have surmounted this obstacle;
for, during the many years he has been
among them, he has acquired great in
duence by the services he has rendered

to bring out the minor tints in the
brocade. All the beautiful passe-
menteries, in gold and pearl, in fringe
and fine lace-work, will be more ex-

At a little dinner party that Lenox
gave last week, one or two new gowns
showed themselves. A pretty hello
trope satin had skirt that flared well
all around, and just cleared the floor.
There was no train. Deep cascades of
lace on the skirt were headed by vel
vet bows. A bodice plated in the
pointed velvet belt was run with three
lace insertions. Beneath the belt
small hip pieces. richly embroidered in
heliotrope silk, were added, edged with
lovely point de Venice. A Louis XIV.
berthe, lying low on the neck, was
similarly embroidered and similarly
edged The short sleeve puff, termin-
ating far above the elbow, was finished
with loosely hanging large cuff, en-
broidered and lace edged.
The other gown that was new was a
lovely maize color, prettily trimmed
with lace borders and white gauze. A
wide border of lace was at the foot,
and another, much narrower, few
inches above. On the bodice, which,
crossed surplice fashion, two choux
were placed at the bust, from which
narrow insertions ran down until they
were caught in the gauze belt. The
sleeve puffs were trimmed with lace
