The San Francisco malls for June %
and 80 and July 1 are still missing.
They are believed to be stalled some
where between the coast and Salt Lake.

Postmaster Dayton this afternoon re-
ceived a telegram from San Francisco
to the effect that los sacks OF Australian
mail. consigned to Great Britain, were
forwarded to-day by way OF Chicago.
Fifty mine sacks, which arrived later
will be sent tonight.
This Is the mail about which inquiry
was made in the English Parliament
last week.
The fear was expressed that owing to
the strike II would be delayed, but as
surances were given that 1t would arrive
on time.
1t will probably come straight through
without stopping, as there Is no longer
any danger of trouble at Chicago.

 Many are making chiffon waists. These are beautiful in black, with the full folds of the sleeves unlined, and revealing glimpses of white arms. Any one can make the sort of chiffon waist that is made to-day. It is gathered at the neck, and again at the belt, and a great deal of it is covered up with handsome lace fronts of one style or another-a deep collar, points that run all around, pieces made just for that purpose, for each side, or by d figaro effect.
 Where the Christmas gown is ordered, it is usually of quiet, dark silk. (. of light one that is subdued by stl'ipings of black satin or moire. It is made high and full, fastening at the back, and with yoke and belt trimmings of velvet and lace.
 Other silks for this Christmas dinner gown, for sedate ladies, are of pale gray moiree slightly striped with small, close figures of black. The all layen- der silks.swith satin stripes and small empire Bouquets, are also being or dered in large quantities.
 The. young girl, however, is having the prettiest of all the dresses. The color is pale blue, if it is at all becom- ing to her,5and the paler and softer the better. She softens the effect still more with black velvet loops, and looks most charming and girlish with her hair waved each side of her face, and tied loosely back with velvet ribbon. The style pictured is quite original. The material is Liberty satin in palest blue with tiny stripe which runs round, and pontille with black be- tween. The bodice and skirt trimmings are all of mousseline design of the same azure tint. It is laid in loose folds, handkerchief-fashio about the neck to form a yoke which is banded by narrow piece of the satin. Below, each side of the bust, is full puff of the gauge. From out of the gathered vel vet belt, which ties in short bow at the side, fall two scarfs of the mousse line, gathered in bunch at the bot tom and finished with velvet bow of

 After sensible talk on sensible schoolgirl frocks. let it not surprise you when you step forth on clear winter morning to see my lady walk ing with most demure little indi- .vidual, clad in a rich bengaline cloak, fur-trimmed, with rich Vandyked lace at neck, and a huge bonnet almost hiding the little face. You will won der where the sense is displayed. Ahi It is all beneath. The darlings must still be gorgeously attired when they go out with pretty mamma.
 The cloak for the very little one her that is six or eight years old-is very dainty and often very elaborate. It is of the heavy corded faille or other silk of that variety It has deep collar, fat, cut in Vandyl1es of the silk, and over it falls another Van dyl1ed collar in rare lace. A small edging of mink or ermine edges the deep collar as well as the neck collar and the sleeves. Or there are two collars of the heavy silk, the lower one round, the upper one, which falls quite as long, cut up into points. The lower one has an edging of fine point de Venise and the upper one is trim med with bands of fur laid between each point, from the neck down, and a small fur head finishing.
 Another dainty cream bengaline has two collars falling in full godets all around, so that the delicate pink silk lining is visible. The upper collar is only an inch or two shorter than the lower, and each Is edged with mink. Between the mink edges a narrow edg ing of beautiful lace, in points of course, is laid. The collar is made of folds of the white silk, with large bow at the neck, intertwined with tails.
 From ten to fourteen the little misses wear more subdued colors. A hand

some brown coat is ornamented with black braid crescents that follow the figure of the material. Its trimmings consist of flat shoulder revers that stand out very straight, and are overlaid with two bands each of deep yellow lace. The revers, sleeves and collar are edged with sable.
 Another brown coat, whose material is woven in a heavy rib, has the cen ter of the back laid in double plait that spreads as it descends. Its collar or shoulder trimming-and that is the only thing of note on the child's coat is rich seal cape, very short, falling in box-plait the middle of the back, plain in front and slit up over each shoulder, so that the sleeves have full play and stand up between. On the seal are set points of heavy lace. The cape is edged with narrow Persian lamb and the waist is encircled with the same.
 The coats of the schoolgirl are as quiet as the dresses; quite long are they, some with deep capes, others falling in boX-plaits, and trimmed with graceful hoods lined with bright plaid silk.
 The children's bonnets are large and dropping Their great brims fall over the little faces below. For the wee tots they are made in the silk of the coats, and very elaborately trimmed. A description of one will suffice. It is of pink faille, and has deep double ruffle of particularly fine velvet, the same tint, about the bottom. Over this rather flat ruffie another falls-this one double also, and of silk. Then there is a little twist of pink velvet, out of which arise bobbing little pink tips, that are set all around. Then the back of the bonnet is almost hidden by a wide lace that covers the lower half of it, and its points inverted. That, you would say, was enough elaborateness But that is only the beginning. When you get to the top, you meet with more and larger tips punched together, in- tertwined with lace and velvet bows. It is lovely little bonnet, and there is pretty little sum represented.
 When it comes to hats, they are bet ter. Large loops, fiat effects, broad brins, are what characterize them.
