GATHERED ON THE RAIL.

TIE British have $500, ZOO, 900 invested
in United States railroads.
A SECTION of the Pacific railway in
the Argentine Republic extends oil
miles without curve.
FIGURES show that the total railroad
mileage, of the country on June 80.
1898, was III, $685. miles.
In France railway companies arc
fined by the government where their
trains are more than ten minutes late.
THERE are eight tunnels on the
Transandine railway in Chill and Ar
gentina, the total length of which is
nine and two-thirds. English miles.
To TRANSACT the business of the rail-
ways there were required last year tho
services of 33, 1876 locomotives, of which
6,S4S were employed in passenger serv-
ice, 1859 in freight service and 0,729
in yard and other service.
The air brakes on railroads are be-
ing built with view to their use on
trains of one hundred cars. The plant
on each train is being built so that it
can be used in such way as to bring
the speed down from eighty to thirty
miles per hour within five seconds.
Great power has to be used, and every
part of the apparatus has to be perfect

brocaded flowers woven in, and they are

pearance.
These corded velvets are mostly in

ton gowns and not TO be used ROW as
khey would have been few seasons ago
as panels, front breadths or trains Al
most every gown now is of the same
material as far as skirts go, except where
there are rufTles or folds CT something of
q lighter quality or kid. The sleeves
and waist drapery also often have diff
ferent color or material, but skirt COM

vogue
The princess form of gown for al
figures that viii bear it Is the one for the
full skirt, and it Is oftener seen than any
other, particularly for home toilets,
though it is also quite suitable for the
street. The prettiest wrappers and tea
gowns are princess, with vatican in
the back and full front, more or less
trimmed, the long lines and loose folds
being graceful to any figure.
One very elegant gown Of this descrip-
ton has Just been finished for Il young
married belle, and it is worthy OF illus
tration- 1t Is very quaint, but altogether
lovely. The gown IS of rich shot velvet,
showing all the browns and greens, and
it is en- princesse, with every seam out
lined from top to bottom with narrow
galloon and Jet beads as big as peas.
Around the bottom Is one bias rufie
scarcely fulled at all, and at ths knees
two others, all Of pea green taffetas with
q brown lindershade. The waist had q
jacket shape Of the same, with 6 rufie
like bertha all around It, and the snug
part of the sleeves, the lapels and collars
were OF the same. The lapels leave the
waist open V shape, and this is filed in
and the lapels covered with ecru oriental
lace. In the center of the back the prin-
cess skirt il laid In three deep plaits, the
ruffies reaching clear around the skirt.
This design has been copied, with some
variations, notably having rufies at in
teTvals reaching nearly to the waist, and
IN some instances folds IN place OF the
ruffes. Others, again, have the dress
plain, save for the beaded galloon. It
