skins as Is ermine.
 For misses jacket this picture pre- sents a good model. As sketched 1t was of black astrakan cloth, its over tapping fronts ornamented with two rows of bone buttons. A pocket ap- peared on either side and the revers, collars. cuffs and edges of the garment were bound with black mohair braid. The whole Is lined with pale rose pink surah. The muff to match Is orna- mented with a large satin bow and a blackbird.
 Sealskln capes are initiated so closely in various finishes of other and much less expensive furs that 1t Is safe only to have sealskin made into a smart coat. If a woman cannot buy seal, let her put her money into handsome vel vet cape. These are worn by young matrons and unmarried belles. They are preferably of black, are interlined and covered inside with brilliant bro- cade. A fiuted shoulder cape of moire Is added, this cape being edged with sable or ermine. A high fluted collar almost reaches the edge of the low brimmed capote and frequently great vandykes of jet are worked, points up, along the edge of the lower cape.

A Memorial 10 B ,afi'e,.

From the London Standard.l
 Much interest has lately been mani- tested at the decision of the Parks com mitte of the London county council to carefully open the tumulus at the top of Parliament-hill fields, which. accord ing to tradition, is the burial place of Queen Boadicea. When the commit- tee decided to undertake the investign- ton 1t occurred to Mir. J. I. Thornycroft of Chiswick, in connection with the un- dertaking, that his father. the late Mir. Thomas Thorneycroft, devoted fifteen years of his life to gigantic group, representing the British Warrior queen, supported by her two daughters, pre- pairing to go into battle against the Roman legions in a chariot drawn by two horses. This, MT. Thorneycrof. considered, would be a suitable oc- casion to make present of the statues to the county council for erection in some prominent position in London. AS soon as the parks committee was in- formed of MT. Thorneycrofts inten- tions, small subcommittee, consist ing of MT. W. B. Doubleday, vice chair man of the committee; MT. Andrew Ar ter, and MT. w. J. Bull, was appointed to view the work, and report to the council upon 1t. These gentlemen yes- terday visited the house of MT. Thor neycroft at Chiswfck, and examined the plaster cast, which, for the last ten years, has been preserved in house specially erected to contain 1t. The group is of gigantic proportions, the statue of Boadicea alone being fully ten feet in height and the chariot eight feet in width. Attached to the wheels are long war scythes. MT. Thorney- croft explained that his father had es- pecially designed the group for casting in bronze. The cost of casting would amount to about f6,O00, and he was pre- pared, should the council not see it's way to the expenditure of all that sum, to open a voluntary subscription by donation of f100, in order to insure that the undertaking should be carried out in a proper manner. He also suggested that a suitable site would be the we'll known mound on Parliament-hill fields, or on one of the other spots in London which is traditionally associated with the British queen. After a long exam ination the committee expressed their qualification at the public spirit which characterized Mr.Thorneycroft's action, and their great pleasure at the excel lent way in which MT. Thomas Thorney- crofts work had been executed and pre- served. Before advising the county council as to what action should be taken, they considered that 1t would be preferable if some of the other members of the parks committee should examine the work, so as to obtain their opinion as to the most suitable spot for erection, and the cost of the casting. During the life time of MT. Thomas Thorneycroft considerable interest was taken In this group by the Prince Con- cort, who frequently made Inspections of it. The two horses in the chariot are life size, and so as to assist MT. Thorn eycroft in his work the Prince Consort especially sent from time to time horses from the royal stables.

FASHION NOTES.
The Styles in Sealskin,

The right sort of a sealskin coat ts made with enormous leg-o-mutton sleeves. made just as broadcloth sleeves would be, and double breasted to the waist, where it fits snugly. The wide revers can be worn open or turned close about the throat. and the collar stands up or turns back. The skirts of the coat reach the knee and are full, the garment fastening with great invisible hooks. With many of the high class seal coats comes little front with g stock collar of ermine. The front is no more than little tri- angle of the ermine to show when the reyers Of the seal are open, but with a little srpaina head at each side of the

 It seems one oyster grower was set to talking about it by reporter, but one oyster grower don't, make a meeting any more than "one swallow a summer"

The death of Arthur Huntingdon of Omaha calls fresh attention TO one of the most remarkable cases of brain dis order thar ever baff1ed the specialists. Years ago the man witnessed murder, and, although he had ample time to dc 80, was too terrified to call out and warn the victim. When the deed was done Ee fell unconscious and being found near the dead man. was held for the crime. It was clearly proved that he had nothing to do with it, but the un- fortunate man could not shake off the melancholia that settled upon him. On several occasions he applied to the police and made confessions of the crime, which, when sifted, proved 70 be un- true. Aside from this horrible deIu- slon, he was as rational as anyone, therefore he was never confined. At the time of the tragedy he was about to marry the daughter of the murdered man, with the full consent of the fa- ther. She remained true to the last, and was with him at the time of his death,

The nut grass or cocoa is proving to be almost as much an tnf1iction In the South as the Russian thistle is to the Northwest. For that reason the Agri- cultural department will soon Issue special bulletin urging a general cam paign against this grass before it gets too firm hold. This plant is not grass as it's common name, and its appearance indicate, but sedge. It has many local names in the region in which it has been introduced. The species of it Is sub- tropical in its origin and is said to have reached the United States at New Or leans among garden plants brought from Cuba.

THE HEALTH
BOARD MEETS.
Last Session of the First Year of
the Organization.
INCREASED DEATH RATE
There Were FOrty-FOur Deaths in the
Town During the Past Two Weeks.
Dr.. Spalding'S Term Expires.

A regular meeting of the Board of
Health was held in the Council chamber
last night, with Messrs. Spalding, McHale
and Miles present The report of the
secretary and epidemic committee showed
that during the past two weeks there
were forty-four deaths in the town, but
only one contagious disease in existence.
The nuisance committee reported hav-
ing visited in company with the sanitary
committee a number of places complained
of by the Health Officer and found them
in an extremely filthy condition.
President Spalding stated that every
thing was in readiness to punish offenders
and the Health Officer was instructed to
proceed vigorously hereafter
Health Officer Miles made lengthy re-
port with special reference to overflowing
privy wells and showing that many people
the sanitary regulations had stepped up
to the mark.
The following additional report was
made "Nuisances of ashes and garbage
on East Raspberry alley cleaned condi
tion of yard on North Main street i'm
proved water in cellar on East Apple
alley; ash bin at corner Coal and Jardin
streets cleaned out; waste water on West
Line street stopped pigeons in garrett on
East Centre street removed ashes taken
out of Runyan property on North Main
street complaint made against garbage
and ashes corner Jardin and Oak streets (;
Objectionable drain on West Centre street
repaired and oyster shells taken from
a cellar on West Centre street."
The Board has been suffering under a
disadvantage of late on account of their
being a question as to the proper publica-
tion of the rules and regulations, but that
question is now disposed of and President
Spalding announced last night that there
will be no more delays in entering prose
cutions where the health laws are violated.
Last nights meeting was the last of the
old Board of Health, and rs DIR. Spald.
ing's term expires, the Borough Council
will be obliged to either re appoint him
or appoint his successor at their next
regular meeting, which will be held on
August 2nd.
The Board of Health will meet for re-
organization and annual election of Off
GERS on Monday, August 9th.
DR.. Spalding has made a very efficient
and conscientious member and presiding
officer of the Board and a are-appointment
would be but just recognition of honest
and faithful gratuitous service in behalf
of the sanitary improvement OF the
borough during the past year.
