TOILET FOR THE FALL.

A beautiful visiting Toilets isof morire
mouvelie, with small p,le blue pastilles
scattered over it. Furring skirt, laid in
box plaits in the back. Blouse corsage,
with wide reyers of pale loutre antique
velvet.
A novelty in hat arrangements is the
uay cocks feathers are made to repre-
sent flow rs in differei shades.
The saule pleureur ostrich feather is
seen a great deal on the dtessy and pic
turesque large hat
The little feather tips called marquise
are trimming small toqu0s.
A novelty in dress goods just out is
cloth or velvet, with application of same
goods.
Covert cloth will b. all the rage fo'
smart street gov ls; so will camPPs hair,
which, combined with velv, t, makes up
lovely.
For reception and ether dressy occa-
sions, velvet gowns will be highly in fa-
vOr.
L
and look well, and some OF the more Sh-
ionable gowns are made in striped or fig
ured black taft tas, the strip being OF
light color.
Satin figures on the gros grain ground
are shown everywhere.
Black seems to be the preferred color,
and with = touch of light colnred velvet
here and there is fl for anybody.
All the up to date houses predict a
8 ''black - season and once it is here it is
likely to stay with us for soma time.
For every day wear the tas has quite
recently turned distinctly in favor OF mo-
hair, alpaca aud lustre wool dress ma e.
rials.
For theatre w. a" silk waists are bound
to be more popu'a ar this season than ever.
They are being produced in many differ
ent effects.
Stripes ale expected to play an impor-
rant factor in materials put out for blouses
and also for ball costume S.
The popularity of chinchilla for cloaks
Is without doubt. Covert mixtui es of all
sOftS nave developed great popularity.
OF course capes will be appreciated as
lOag as our fashionable sleeves and trim
ming will require them.
Empire cloaks wi still be seen but
some different eff cts are shown.
Most ofthe capes seen in the best houses
are lined with fur which make them ex-
cessvely rich but also exc eedingly eXpen-
sive for the average good dresses.
The coats seen arc mostly redingote
style, some of them doubl breasted. A
pretty one is OF b. glish covert cloth of
grayish co'or, with wide rcdin cote revtrs
of brown silk velvet; deep cnffs Of same.
The astrakhan Eton jacket seems to be
still in favor.
The styles for dresses are not very varied
as regards skirts. 1t is predicted that the
draper skirt will slowly creep to the sur
face.

THE AFRO-AMERiCAN DE-
FENDER.

Hon. II. g. @. Astwood, ex-
United States consul to San Do
mingo, has according 10 promise,
started his paper ths cairo
American Defender The first issue
made it's appearance on last Satur-
day morning. 1t is an eight
column folio and well edited.
geographically IT is first-ciass.
Editor Astwood proposes to
make his paper national and simon
pure Republican.
Miss Gussle Moore, the expert
typewriter of this city and very
talented young lady,is the treasurer
and manager. This is the second
lady who has the distinction of
managing newspaper.
Miss AstwCod, the amia BILE
daughter of MIR. Astwood is also
one of the lady clerks In the Office,
and there is no reason that the
Defender can not be a success.
The BEE extends it's congratula-
tions to the new enterprise and
wishes it long life and success.

MR.. ROSS ON THE SOUTH.

The BEE has heard so much of the
South and the Southern white Leople
that it took occasion to ask Mr.. James
A. Ross, a prominent negro democrat
to give his views concerning the South
and the Southern white people, and
whe. her it is true that the South and
the Southern people are fairly pictured.
Mr.. Ross readily consen' ed. and in
another column, the BEE prints what
MIR. Ross has TO say.
All The BEE knows is what Mr.. Ross
says, and it must confess that he states
what others have said, that :he enemies
of the negro are The common white
people of The South who have Joined
what is known as he populist party.

INDEED D?

Why doesn't Chase, of the Wash
ington Bee, acknowledge that he has
been beaten in the fight for the removal
of Recorder Taylor? His seeming eff
fort to square matters is amusing. >
Texas Freeman.
When Chase is left or beaten he will
acknowledge it. Of course it is anus
ing, no doubt, to the Freeman, at the
efforts of Chase to square matters, and
as hard as well as amusing to the BEE
to put things in theirproper shape. The
BEE has never lost fight, and it has
been in many.
If the position of the BEE in defend
ing the women of the Recorders Office
is an indication of defeat, the BEE is
willing to acknowledge that defeat.

AN OFFER.

Will the colored people of Washington
maintain one properly-conducted news
paper, managed by men of the race !?
We believe they will do SO. Financially
they are able to support two or more
journals devoted to the best interests OF
the race. But will they maintain one ?
L he BEE has been published now for
nearly fifteen years as an experiment in
colored journalism. Longer than any
of it's contemporaries now in the field
here. But the time has now arrived to
make it a real wide-awake, newsy and
interesting medium of advanced jour-
nalism, and we want the support OF the
entire colored reading public Of the
District of Columbia.
The BEE will soon be issued twice
each week, and persons sending to this
office six monthly subscriptions OF their
friends will receive the BEE for one
year free of cost. This offer will stand
good until after the Christmas holidays.
