Of eighteen inches. and that measured
thirty-siX in length.
It was not sewed anywhere to the
chinchilla background, but was made
TO fasten the collar by being passes at
the centre across the space in front,
and then with an upward twist twirled
around the rosettes, to fall at last un-
der these in heavy ends to the bust
line.
The whole was a delightful illustra-
ton Of elegant simplicity that was
most alluring. and since it rluffied one
of New York's selected throats-it was
al the theatre, by the way-it is quite
safe TO believe It a correct and medish
model for either afternoon or evening
wear.

Calling Costume.
A love of a carriage dress, just the
thing to wear at the coming out" tea
Of a debutante, is Of MORE crepe q
new and peculiar and very effective
material that has all the effect of q
crepe, also of the broadly watered and
shaded appearance of a rich MORE, and
incidentally catches the light in a var
iety of ways that cannot be described.
1t is called suns ct moire and has the
lu5tre Of silk with the body" of d
popIin, and yet is as soft as crepe.
The color is a pink of the deep tint
of the base of a wild rose petal. There
is band of sable round the foot Of the
skirt which flares OF course in the
most approved style, thanks TO the
middle lining of French horsehair
Two other bands of sable pass up the
front Of the skirt outlining the front
gore of the skirt, a style of trimming
that is calculated to make the Wearer
chiffon fall from waist to foot in front.
The bodice has d narrow box plat
down the middle Of the back, growing
little narrower at the waist; this is
covered with white silk passementerie
in fine pattern, resembling more nearly
Il handsome point de Gene lace. There
is a crushed stock with rOsetteS of
wild rose pink chiffon about the neck,
and from this collar to the bust there
are three cOnverging bands of the lace
like trimming that melt away into
scant plastron of point de Gene lace
which is carried down 10 the waist
under a band Of sable that forms a
shallow point across the bust line, the
whole rather complicated and very
Partisan design being set off with q
few slender pendant jets.

CASE GOES BY DEFAULT.
G orge A. Driggs Refuses to Deposit the
 $50 For His Wife's Defense.

$15O For His Wife's Defense.
 The divorce case of George A Driggs against hls wife came up in the superior court at New Haven to-day upon motion to compel Driggs to pay the clerk of the court $50, as ordered, for his wife's defense. The order was passed by the court on December 26, but Mir Driggs failed to comply.
 To-day Jud ge Wheeler, without hearing arguments, ordered the plaintiff to de- posit .$15O before 10 o'clock tomorrow morning or the case would go by default.
 After court N. k. Bronson, attorney for MT Driggs, stated that they would not comply with the order, but would fight the counter suit for divorce brought by Mrs Driggs on the grounds of intolerable cruelty.
 There was big sensation in court when Lynde Harrison, counsel for Mrs Driggs, read specific statement setting forth the alleged cruelties, with dates and places. The most interesting allegation was that ill Waterbury, on a certain date. Mrs Driggs was knocked down by her husband, slapped in the face and dragged from room to room. This treatment, it is alleged, was repeated while Mir and Mrs Driggs were at Nineland Haven, Mass. It is also alleged that Mrs Driggs was injured greatly by deleterious reports circulated by her husband,
 Arguments will be made in the case next Thursday.
 The collapse of the case brought by George A. Driggs is no surprise to those who have watched it from the beginning Without entering into the merits or de- merits of the case there isn't any doubt that action was brought by the plaintiff without being able to furnish a specific bin of particulars such as would carry his case to a successful issue.

H. kibbe. the agent at New Haven of the Granite State Provident association, has left town as the result of trouble with a Waterbury man named John Barnard, whose wife Kibbe carried on n filtration with some time ago while he was unaware that she was a married woman, it is said. Barnard went to New Haven looking for Kibbe with q revolver in his pocket, but a friend of kibbe,s persuaded him to go home. The man vowed to shoot kibbe, however, and it is this that has caused kibbes departure.
 The trouble was reported to the com pany, which has its headquarters in Man. chester, N. H.. and few days ago an agent of the company came on to take charge of the company's affairs and to make arrangements to have the business carried on, and at Mir kibbe's office yester- day 1t was stated that he would not again return to New Haven, but that his place would soon be filled by another agent of the company.
 Since Kibbe's departure officers have been searching tor him and it was ascer- tained that warrant had been issued for his arrest upon the complaint of the man who was seeking his blood.

It WAS the same bad boy that the audi ence at the opera house last night saw when "Peck's Bad Boy" was given there. The bad boy cut up few more capers and the play introduced some new specialties, and some neT jokes were cracked, but further than this there was nothing in the performance that an old acquaintance would not recognize. It drew out large number of people. showing that it still has vitality. and no doubt theatre goers will see it on the boards for several seasons to come. The play will be presented again this evening at popular prices.

BLAND BILL PASSED.
The Senate Voted In Favor of the Scigniol
 age Coinage Measure.

| The Senate Voted In Favor of tho SciGnior | age Coinage Measure. l WASHINGTON, March l6.--Thc last day ot | the debate on the Bland seigniorage bill attracted large crowd to the senate, and | the galleries were well filled. The first part of the day was taken up by the trans action of some routine morning business and by the speeches of Senators Carey Palmer, Dubois. Mitchell of Oregon and Pettigrew.
 Finally Senator Harris asked that the bill be put upon its final passage in accord Rnce with the agreement arrived at several days ago. The yeas and nays being de manded, the bill was passed by a vote of A to 31.
 The senate also passed several bills of minor importance and then went into eX- ecutive session and passed upon a large number of nominations. When the doors were reopened, several unimportant bills were passed, and the senate adjourned un- til Monday
 In the house the consideration of the sundry civil bill was completed excepting those portions passed over during the read ing of the bill. The principal fight was made by MT. Enloe of Tennessee to abolish coast and geodetic surveys and transfer the former to the navy and the latter to the interior department. His am'-'lnent looking to this transfer, as he $; " ed by letters, was indorsed both by Secretary Carlisle and Secretary Herbert, but after long debate it was ruled out on a point of order.
 Mir. Enloe then modified his amendment so as to authorize an investig gation by the joint committee on the expenditures in the executive departments of the work of that bureau and the advisability of the trans fer, giving the committee instructions to report bill for this purpose. MT. Enloe made vicious attack on the survey, which, he said, had exceeded the limits for which it was designed and was annually spend ing thousands in useless work. Over ESQ., 0Oo, 900 had been spent by the survey alto gether, and the present bill carried S4S0, 900 for the prosecution of the work during the next year.
 No action was had on the amendment. After this paragraph is disposed of today only three subjects will remain-the ap- propriations for the Missouri river, for the United States courts and the proposed change of method in auditing the accounts of the National Soldiers home.

THE PlTTSBURG NUNS.
They May Be Returned to the Riverside
 Public school.

PlrTSBURG, March lG,-The withdrawal of the nuns from the Riverside public school does not mean the abandonment of the fight between the school board and the Junior Order of American Mechanics and is only truce, pending tine settlement of the question ill the courts.
 If the petition from the mechanics for an injunction is not granted, members of the board say the parochial school children and the nuns will return to the public school, and action will then be taken to compel the central board of education to sign the warrants for their salaries as teachers. In case the injunction is grant ed they will give up the contest, but not before.
 Bishop Phelan is quoted as saying that the Roman Catholic church was not a party to the arrangement at the Riverside school. He believes it question that should be handled by people of the Thirty fourth ward, who. he says. are the only ones interested. He thought there was no harm in making an experiment. but warned those interested against stirring up trouble
