Conspicuous Headgear the

Conspicuous Headgear the Rule.
 Big hats much curved about the brims and trimmed plainly but effec- lively are, perhaps, the most popular general headgear for garden use. Great leghorns turned up straight against the crown in the back and lift ed sharply once or twice into becom. ing peaks along the brim in front and at the sides, are trimmed with a far, ing bow. few rich roses set unex. pectedly near the edge of the -brim or the upper side and apparently weigh. ing the brim into dips and curves, 8 knot of ribbon or more roses against the hair. The result is a hat which is just the thing for ginghams, morning dresses, swivel silks and all the sim. pier materials.

Null hats shirred elahorately and much bepuffed and so big that they suggest the merry pa irons of the powder and patch time, are much worn with white gowns of the more elaborate kind. Large hats are in the majority and bonnet modes are at standstill for the present. For the small types of headgear, there are toaues a-plenty, however, and a taste- full and stylish one is included in the toilet of this illustration. It is in fan ey black straw with q fluted brim and is trimmed with pink satin ribbon and sprigs of pinks of the same shade. A large butterfly bow is placed at the back and the front and side are gar- nished with boWs efFibhon and sprays of flowers.

1OLL-G.iTES JN NEW YORK.

New York is q great State, but it is even farther behind the times in some respects than little Connecticut. For instance, in the matter of toll-gates. There are toll-gates all over Albany county and some of them are not far from the centre of the capital. One is only three hundred feet from Broad- way, on what is known as the Shaker road, while another is at the junction of this turnpike and Van Rensselaer, ave- nue. Just now there is.a lively protest against these "relics of barbarism. n The farmers are much opposed to them One grower of fruit and vegetables says that the tolls have the effect of raising the prices of his produce to such an ex- tent that it is actually cheaper for dealers to purchase in New York and have their goods sent up on the night boat. Many of the Heiderberg farmers, in order to escape the toll SutCo, sCllSA tiiOl1 SSOVoH oA OSSlOloS u the river towns south of the city of Albany, and there have to compete with the farmers along the valley. The liverymcn would also like to see the toll gates taken down, believing that the exaction of the dues depresseS their business. Some of the companies con- trolling roads about Albany arc the Great Western turnpike, the Albany and Bethlehem, the Watervliet, and the Albany, achoharie and Rensselaerville companies. Their stock is quoted Ut good figures, the profits on keeping the roads in repair being large.
 It seems strange that the Empire State should not have all it's highways free, but then it is strange that it's chiaf city is ruled by the Tammany tribe.

less.
LYONS, Col, june 5.-Great excite
ment prevails here today. A report
was circulated that the Beaver Park
reservoir on the South st. Vrain had
broken. A scene of great confusion en-
sued. Every family OH the south SIDE
of the river. with one or two exceptions,
hastily moved to the hill south of town,
and that part of the town is now COM.
pletely deserted in anticipation of the
flood. South hill is covered with fur
niture and many families are homeless.
Several houses have been swept away,
and if the reservoir should break. great
damage will be done. Parties set out
this morning to try and reach the reser-
voir and ascertain the extent of the
damage. 1t is known that at least
part of it has been broken. Business is
practically suspended. and the people in;
the upper part of the town are all doing
what they can to take care of destitute
families. The railroad and wagon roads
are completely washed away, and unless
the water goes down soon, the food sup
ply will be short.

FIVE CHILDREN POISONED.
Little Inmates Of a Catholic Home
Eat Flag Root.


TARRYTowN, N. Y, June 5.-As a
esult OF eating poisonous vegetable, u
which they had mistaken for flag root.
five little inmates OF the Catholic Sisters
of Mercy Home died in great agony
during the night. The dead are:
James Forrestal, ten years old; John,
Callahan. aged ten years and five
days; Thomas CassmOre, aged ten years
and three months; Augustus Powers,
aged twelve years; John DonnelIy,
aged twelve years. Seven others Of the
inmates are seriously i'll. Tine home is
situated in Wilson Park. on the hill
back of Tarrytown. There are about
200 children in the home. The BOYS
were cut playing i'll the park yesterday
afternoon, when one of the boys discoy-
cred pungent root. which he declared
after tasting was flag root. About
dusk one OF the boys was taken
with cramps and within all hour all
who had eaten of the poisonous root
were deathly sick. Such simple RENEE
dies as the sisters knew were applied
for the relief of the sufferers, but with
out avail. Then physicians we're called
from TarrytOwn. The first to succomb
to the poison was the little fellow who
had discovered the roots. He died about
9 O'Clock. Four others died between
that hour and daylight, and very little
hope is entertained of saving the lives
of the others who ate of the poisonous
vegetable. The youngest of the victims
was not over five years, and the oldest
not quite twelve. Must Of tho -fnmates
OF The institution are orphans.
