shown with an immense bow knot of black Chantilly lace appliqued to the batiste before 1t is pleated, but the back is plain and is biased toward the top to do away with all unnecessary fulness. The bodice fastens at the side and the front is trimmed with smaller lace bow knot to correspond to the skirt. The belt and standing collar are of black and green ombre taffeta rib bon, and the tops of the sleeves have three puffs ending in a plain cuf. The silk underskirt measures three and half yards in width and Is trimmed in- side with a ruffie of the same.
 Brilliant colors may be said to be gaining foothold when they appear so generally in hosiery. With gowns conn- bining many colors or shades, the stockings match some brilliant point of color in the dress. while the low slip pers take a neutral dominant shade. This idea is entirely new here, though in vogue abroad for some time. A gown of mouse colored gauge striped with narrow satin lines in scarlet, pale green and delicate yellow is made up over gray satin. With 1t mouse col ored slippers with yellow paste buckles are worn, with scarlet stockings, and the effect Is charming. FLORETTE.

Chinese Proverbs,

But these fine flowery. sentences mean nothing even to the Mongol mind, for the Delightful Abode of Virtue" etc., Is a small hell upon earth, where men and boys are ruined from their early days, and the abode of "Ten Thousand Happinesses" is place full of dirt and vermin, with earth floors, unclean food, and unwashed walters. Outside your paper windows are the pigs asses and mules to keep you we'll awake during the night. Therefore venture to pre- dict ten thousand miseries for the first European seeking happiness in this di- rection.
 John Chinaman is both shrewd and prudent. Two maxims will explain this clearly: "If you do not expend a little money in the entertainment of your customers, you will get none;" and "A man without a smiling face must not open a shop" Bad trade is expressed by the phrase selling a couple of cucumbers in three days"
 1ou cdnnoL lrdue WllHoul soHle CdPi- tal' is, literally, You must have a couple of grains of rice in order to catch fowls" ITO lend without pros pect of repayment" is Ito throw a flesh bone at dog" "Each man to his calling" may be understood by "The priest reverts to his monastery and the merchant to his shop" By these ex- amples one may judge how full the Chinese are of quaint business express sions.-Will Clemens in August Lippin- cOtt'S.

NEW HAVEN JOURNAL AND FRIDAY

money in full discharge of his personal interest in the Cherokee strip came near losing every dollar Of it before returing home. One day when the distribution was exceptionally heavy two very speculative recipients were standing together near the postoftiee. 4 boy was seen coming along the street on a bueking pony. For so young a boy he held his seat we'll but it seemed exceedingly probable to the oniookers that before he got the pony home he would either be thrown or would have 10 get of. The two h. dians discussed the proposition with much excitement. the finally one man bet the other the entire government per capita that the boy would be thrown before he got past them.
 The bet was accepted with vicious eagerness. and as they watched the ans ties ot the pony as it whirled round. bueked. sat down on It's launches. and did everything else that was ever known 10 trick-horse they almost came to blows in the excitement of their argument. Finally. the horse. de- spairing of any other means of getting rid of It's rider. leaped In the air and, fell on it's side. knocking rhe life half out of the boy. and then rolling com pletely over him. An altercation. Of course. followed as to which had won the bet. The plucky boy hung on 10 the horn of his saddle. although ap- parently fatally injured. He neither fell off nor got ofr. but was lifted off the furious animal by half-a-dozen men who rushed quickly to the rescue. Efforts were made to quiet the two In- dians. and the suggestion that the bet be called off was freely made. As each man declined to pay the other this was the final outcome of the affair; but the wagering of such a comparatively large sum over such an insignificant event shows that speculation will al- ways be more or less popular with the average Indian.-St. Louis Globe Dem- ocrat

SOME DAMAGED THEORIES.

This is a good time to revive some theories which went the rounds last summer and the summer before that. For instance. 1t was solemnly stated that the affairs of our solar system had been so arranged. or disarranged. that the rays of the sun didn't strike the once did. IL was also asserted that the Gulf Stream had deserted its habitual way and had gone further off from the coast. Some fearful ones argued that the sun was cooling off and that soon the world would be too cool to live in. etc., etc.
 These and other ingenious and i'm pressive theories served to explain our cool summers. but they don't it this summer It Is plain that the solar sys- tenn ls in good working order nowadays. and that the solar rays are striking the earth right on the nose, as they say of the man who makes a three base hit. It is also plain that the Gulf Stream isn't doing anything to interfere with the arrangements made by the sun. It is also plain that the sun isn't cooling so rapidly that there Is any immediate danger of freezing to death in this re- zion. Indeed. 1t seems more plausible to think that fresh fuel has been put on the fires of the sun and that the bellows are being violently blown in ad- dition.
 We have tried to extract a crumb of comfort out of this summer by glory ing in the prosperity of corn, but we feel that corn has had all that 1t Is fairly entitled to, and that the phrase "good weather for corn" has lost its cheer. We can, however. take some comfort in the thought that the solar system seems to be on it's trolley again and that the rays of the sun are hitting the mark. It is also rather consoling to feel that the sun isn't cooling off so fast that it is likely to peter out this year and make this world too cold to live in. The immediate danger appears to be that the world will be too hot to live in. If the fervent heat does in crease until 1t brings everything to the melting point some more plausible theo- ries will be upset,

M. Carpot and The American Boy.

One of M. Carnot's most amiable trait and one which he shared with MT. Gladstone, was a habit of tipping" schoolboys on almost every available occasion. A friend of mine once saw him in the waiting-room of a French railway station carrying on an anus ing conversation with small Amer ican boy whom he had casually met there who was minding his sisters lug gage. The boy, after the manner of American youths. was charmingly can did in his remarks and informed M. le President that he didn't care for Frenchmen, adding, "They want the earth" an American colloquialism which convulsed M. Carnot When they parted he patted the boy on his head and gave him gold coin, which young America accepted with the re- mark that he guessed he'd go and make himself miserable" thus giving the president further food for merri- ment.-London Figaro.

Robert Browning's Tomb.

The stone that marks the resting place of Robert Browning in West minister Abbey, will shortly be replaced by beautiful piece of Italian alabaster,
 carved with the English rose and the Florentine lily interlaced. MT. Barrett Browning has furnished the design, which is being wrought in Florence.
 The name of the poet, and the date of his birth and death, will be the only inscription on the alabaster. Asolo. the beautiful city that Is the setting of "Pippa passes, land which was the first Italian town Mir. Browning visited in his youth, is now the headquarters of lace manufacture and school start ed by MT. Barrett Browning in memory of his father. It had been the dream of the poet to see Asolo once more a busy centre of the silk-weaving indus try, as 1t was when he first saw it. A large silk factory at a few miles dis tance made the realization of this dream impossible, and to bring back the stir of activity in the homesteads of the hamlet among the hills, the poets s son has organized and started this lace manufacture.-Lond Daily News.

The Baby on the Floor of the House.

Just after the house had been called to order yesterday, little. dark-haired baby-girl toddled down the center aisle. She was dressed in white. with a dain- ty muslin cap fastened upon her pretty curls. She was wee mite of thing so small when she reached the steps she sat down and slid from step to step. for even the few inches descent were beyond the reach of her short and chubby legs. "' N 'r
 At the head of the aisle she paused. looking about her in childish wonder. Then she noticed Speaker pro tenn Richardson sitting at the speakers desk in all his glory. and with the child- ish ambition she proceeded to climb up the broad platform until she stood by his side. Her head scarcely reached the top of his desk, but she prattled away to him in baby fashion until he was compelled to turn away from her to follow the proceedings of the house. Then she half slid, half tumbled down again until she reached the group Of pages by whose side she sat down, spreading out her tiny skirts in true womanly fashion. sA '2' ' 'st
 Just at that moment woman ap- peared at the door of the house, ffanti- cally waving her arms toward the Ht-
 tie one. A doorkeeper came up the aisle, took the little ones hands, and asked her to go to her mother.
 "No, no," said the baby. ,& "But she has some candy for you. Y said the diplomatic If not altogetheF truthful official, and without another word, the youthful wanderer was led in triumph to the arms of her distracted parent.-Washington Ppek x aai !.

GORMAN AND REFORM.

The great Democratic row goes swim mingly and sweatingly on. It was Senator Villas turn yesterday, and he put President Cleveland back on the pedestal from which Senator German had so roughly dislodged him. Senator Villas said that the president was the biggest and grandest man that had ever lived, that rewards that come to public men are few and stinted and that the greatest that had come to him (Vilas) was his intimate association with that lofty and distinguished man." He then proceeded to show that that lofty and distinguished man could not pos sibly have sneaked at any time during the progress of the Democratic effort to show that it is the party of progress. Nobody laughed out loud. and Senator Villas sat down with the consciousness of having done his duty.
 While the great row is going on searchers for the real cause of it are busy. Some of them think they have found it in the ancient hatred of Cor man for Cleveland, and in what hap pened at Chicago, where German led the anti-Cleveland forces with an idea that the lightning might strike him. As the story goes. after he had plot ted in vain for week William c. Whit ney and P. A. Collins walked in upon his seclusion the Monday morning be- fore the convention met, and quietly gave him to understand that he had run against a stone wall. After half an hour of conference with the disap- pointed Marylander, MT. Whitney came forth with his smile of tact playing about his mouth, and proceeded to pave a way for MT. Germans retreat by saying: These rumors about Senator Gormans hostility to MT. Cleveland do him gross injustice, but he has borne them in dignified silence. Now however, it is time to dissipate them A perfect understanding exists be. tween MT. German and us. It has seemed best for him to maintain an in. dependent position during the prelimi. nary skirmishes here, in order thatshe might keep in friendly touch with all elements and be link between them In this purpose he has succeeded so ad. mirably that to-day he is a friend o1 every faction, and now that he has come out plainly for MT. Cleveland. nomination his action will have a mos
 powerful influence upon all the scat tered forces in opposition to us. W, do not expect him to become aggressiv
 on our side, and would prefer that h.
 did not, because in this way he will be better able to harmonize the differ ences that threaten the party. But de pend upon it that MT. German is al right, and is working manfully for tn higher interests of the democracy.
 This let MT. German down easy, bu it is believed that he hasn't forgotten it. His attack on the president wil probably in the end leave him in worse position than he has been occu pying. .sagacious Senator Platt of thi State is reported as saying: The cir cumstances and surroundings of M, Germans attack upon the presiden and the apparent solidity of the Demo cratic senators give 1t an unusual sig nificance.
