FADS AND FANCIES.

Novelties just Introduced Into the Fash
iOnablR World.
A new sachet has been invented at
the moment when it seemed hat the
sachet could not be carried further.
This is h sachet founce. The skirts
of dresses are now rarely trimmed, with
the exception of a narrow border of
1Ounce. In this is now concealed tiny
sachets filed with perfume, or the Dor
der is itself transformed into a sachet
powder in its lining. In the choice of
the perfume a subtle correspondence is
affected. For a gown of Nile green
mignonette is chosen, heliotrope lies in
the folds of heliotrope, violet is hidden
in the depths of violet, white rose is
chosen for robes of white or green, fresh
lavender is for the debutantes, and
orange blossoms for the bride. The eff
feet of these delicate odors waited on
the air in the movement of the dance or
by the stimulating warmth of the din
ner cannot but enhance the fower-like
loneliness which belongs to women at
such times.
The face veil is now a sine qui non Of
every wOman's street, church, reception
and theater toilet. They are worn, in
deed, TO the table at l~uncheons slipped
up during the actual eating process, to be
lowered when the finger bowls appear.
The vagaries in these flimsy face cover
ings are legion, almost every shade
known being represented, with the
fabric running the gamut of plain,
dotted, jetted and even jeweled. The
new reddish purple is the latest caprice,
and is as unbecOming as its color would
suggest. Occulists have grown weary
of warning women against these wells,
strapped close to the eyes.
Another e~Xtravagant fancy OF the day
is the use of unborn astrakhan lamb
skins. They are softer than velvet and
are much prettier than other varieties
of aStraknan. as they present a curious
wavy appearance. These are the very
last made for Innings, collars and cuffs
to wraps, cloaks and jackets. They
are very expensive ond the idea seems
cruel-twO reasons de plus why the
ladies of the great world have adopted
them with eagerness. l must say the
effect is very novel and charming.

to stay the progress of the fire, and within
an within an hour they were in ruins.
FOrty-five head of valuable horses were
lost. Six of these were wellknown stall

stein cattle; seven yearling colts one by
Cameo and six by Clessops; a year-Old
halter, for which Mr.. Wilson had refused
$3.50. Seven brood mares in a shed near
by were saved.
The loss is estimated at $4,000. The
buildings and stock carried $4,000 in
surance, placed by the Bowen and Mer
ryman Agency.
The fire is believed to have been of in
cendiary origin. The stables and car
rage house were locked as usual at 6
o'clock and there was on fire in their

LOCAL BUSINESS MEN NOT IN 1T.

Cleveland Says the Rule of Not Appoint
ing Former Oficeholders Is Infexible.
WASHINGTON, March 9.-Postmaster-
General Bissell is accredited with the
announcement that no local business
men need apply for pOstofices under b 8
administration. He objects to commits
sioning local business men as postmas-
tiers for the reason that the actual duties
are performed by irresponsible and often
incompetent clerks and substitutes.
Postmasters under Mr.. Bissell must
promise to devote their entire time to the
work and personally keep strict office
hours.
Representative Syringe of Illinois,
who was one of the presidents callers
to day asked him if the rule of appoint
ing men who had held Office under him
four years ago was to prevail as reported.
The president replied in the affirma-
tive and, when asked if the rule was in
flexible, president Cleveland responded
that it would be so substantially there
might be exceptional and extraordinary
circumstances which might cause some
departure from it, but he could not call
to mind many possibilities to justify a
change from the policy decided upon.

Only Mail Trains Running on the Ann

TOLEDO, Ohio, March 9-The Ann
Arbor railroad engineers and fremen
went out this morning at 6 o'clock, in
obedience to the instructions Of Chief
Engineer. Arthur. The strikers fur.
nished a crew for the mail train, and that
is the only train that has left here to-day.
Chief Arthur has instructed the heads
of the brotherhood lodges on the various
connecting lines not to handle any Ann
Arbor business. Reports from all divis-
ions show that all the men are out and
that everything is tied up. There is a
probability that the strike will extend
TO other roads.
