NEWPORT REPUBLICANS

When the Newport News declares
that the Republicans in that city "are
suffering from want Of mayoralty
candidates." it does not by any means
follow that such is the fact.
Since The News, following the lead of
the Providence journal, joined the
ranks of the mugwumps and free traders
it has shown most pronounced symptoms
of mental strabismus in all matters
concerning the Republican party and
policy. No doubt the Newport contem-
porary would find some crumbs of
comfort IL the situation were really as
it represents 1t to be, but unfortunately
for its peace Of mind 1t is not.
The Republican party of Newport has
within its ranks plenty of mayoralty
timber. II has men who enjoy the con.
fidence of the people, men who are
identified with the business interests of
the city, men who are not mere
political adventures, but solid,
substantial men Of affairs. who
can be depended npon to dis
charge the duties of mayor or in
fact of any other Office 10 which
they have been chosen with profit to
the municipality and credit to them
selves.
When the time comes for action The
News will learn how little il knows of
the Republican party Of Newport

Is called 1.-THE Feast of the Dolls"

"The Feast of the Dolls came few
months ago. And you cannot imagine
what pretty sight 1t was to see the dolls
in their holiday attire, for this is very
beautiful season in Japan. and the dolls
were placed In windows filled with red
ounce blossoms and In little wagons losd-
ed with pink apple blossoms.

widths, and also for sashes.
White lace in all widths and f1ounc-
ings is to be used. Lac6S with gold

four, six and eight buttons, and there is
good demand for the mousquetaire
style.

ported in enormous quantities for mil
liDery and dress trimmings.

The Ranlon Spectacle.

No wonder that "Fantasma" won sue
cess. Its brilliant spectacular features
are crowd drawers, and its narrative,
though not lengthy nor very sensational,
is SO set off with wierd and fantastic
scenes, fancy dances, new and catchy
songs, inteTmingled with bits of
burlesque and opera, stage tricks
and butfoonery, that combined they
hold the close attention of the audi
ence throughout the three long acts.
The several tableauX were remarkably
handsome. The animals that danced
and cut up capers, the cats and kids,
and the deniZens of 10000 leagues I'M
der the sea, were included in the stage
effects. In fact, these and the new
transformation effects increase the in
terest in this play produced by the Ham
lon brothers. The company is nearly,
if not quite, the largest ever seen here.
The play drew all audience that left
standing room only for many people at
the Grand opera house last night. and
all classes, from the orchestra chairs to
the attic, showed that they enjoyed the
play heartily.

The bride was gowned in white silk
with white roses. The bridesmaid. Miss

the strains of the Lohengrin wedding
march heralded the coming of the bridal
party, which entered the parors, led
by tine brides little brother, CARRYING a
basked filled with flowers, in which was
the wedding ring. Next came two little
flower girls, Effie Belcher, niece of the
groom, and Florence LaClair, cousin of

spent in music and dancing, the brideand
grOomsman leading the stately minuet.

MANDATES OF FASHION.

In new stationery pale lilac, with adj
dress or MONOGRAM in darker tone. is
shown. Light and dark green are also
shown, and dark blue, with white letter
ing, is also a novelty. Yet there are
many who never use anything but the
white Irish linen, with the address in
silver or gold. Unpunctuated letters
are also growing to be fashionable
fad.
Chiffon jabots in variety of pretty
colOrings are very dainty accessories
and make an otherwise plain gown
dresSy and effective.
Smart jackets and topcoats have
fringes of leather. The comfortable
garments known as DolgOroukiS have
belts of leather studded with barbaric-
looking nail heads as large as a silver
quarter of dollar and taSSelS Of leath-
er. Hoods are Invariably shown on
these garments.
a very handsome cape fashioned of
sealskin is trimmed with the tails of
Russian sable. A top cape is in close
plaitS, and the bow is an entire sable
skin. The cape is lined with rich silk
and is extra long and elegant.
The turban is fairly fashionable. The
most approved style fits rather closely
to the head, and recalls the old days
when saucer-shaped headgear without
trimming was looked upon as quite the
thing.
