the Oxford checked crepons. These are
wide and very odd, but pretty, in all the
new colorings. 1 have seen it for sale ut
so cents per yard, and it is 40 inches wide.
The serges and serge cheviots divide hon
ors with plain cheviot, and cloth for tailor
gowns. These tailor gowns, by the way,
have vests and chemisette fronts. The lat
est is called the paddock suit and has a
full circular skirt, tailor finished, and a
long double breasted coat, with balloon
sleeves and prince albert back. The
sleeves are balloon, and there are sharply
pointed revers. The whole is made of COW
ert cloth.
These half long coats are very becoming
to all figures. l saw one of brown cloth
tailor stitched around tho bottom. 1t was
tight fitting and double breasted. The
butterfly collar was covered with brown
soutache. There were side pockets, and a
fancy fringe of brown knotted silk fell
over each. Tho owner of ibis coat had q
dress Of russell glace silk with a changca-
BILE light of another shade all through it
and dots and flecks Of the lighter shade
thrown up over it. Around the bottom
were two narrow lines of fur.

girl of about II was of gobclin blue chev-
lot, with an irregular pattern of broken
lines of navy blue running crosswisc.
Around the bottom there was azigzag pat
tern of blue and black striped braid. There
was a pointed cape, with a pelerine collar
Of navy blue velvet. The pretty sailor hat
worn with this suit had a navy blue band
of velvet and q couple of small plumes.
The sailor hat boc provo1 ron booo,c;r~
to be forgotten, and among the new shapes
the dear old sailor has its place. With the
sailor hat by a%elatural sequence goes the
REFER jacket. These are made of French
clay diagonal and are generally half fitting,
though some are straight in front. There
are also light clay diagonals, with large
pearl or bone buttons. There arc hand
some covert coats, tight fitting, with wide
revers and umbrella backs. They sell from
Sc to $40, according to where bought.
They arc lined with surah. I noticed par
ticularly an English kcrsey paddock coat,
with a full umbrella back and balloon
sleeves and having a folded moire collar
and an incroyablc bow of wide black MORE
ribbon with white lace at the ends.
Among the short capes were several of
fine broadcloth, with three rows of point de
gene insertion around them and a lace and
ribbon bow in front. A finer one was of
emerald green velvet, with three rows of in
sertion and a fancy gold core and tassels
to hold the front together. One fine prune
colored broadcloth cape had a yoke, with
three rows Of black satin ribbon quilted
on. The cape was gathered to the yoke
and trimmed around the bottom in the
same way, with flat bands of point de gene
insertion between. A superb cape was
made of black MORE, with a satin lining.
There was a deep rufle of fine Spanish

mer, or in the gubernatorial mansion in
Albany, has been unusually happy. They
have had three children born to them, Of
whom only n is now living, a daughter,
who was married to John B. Taylor Of
Watertown several years ago. Mrs. Flower
has often taken occasion to say that she is
not o society woman and has never desired
social prestige. But she has achieved it
just the same n has proved to be the
most popular governors wife New York
has had in many a day.
Since its occupancy blythe governor and
Mrs. Flower the executive mansion at Al
bany has undergone a complete transfer
nation. Both Cleveland and Hill were
bachelor governors, SO that there has been
no woman at the head Of the establishment
since the Cornell administration. Mrs.
Flower brought her own pictures, added
materially to the other furnishings and
has given to the big house an attractive,
homelike air, which 1t has never known
until now. The governor stays at home
until office hours, when he goes to the ex-
ecutive chamber at the capitol, coming
home again in the evening as any business
man would do. He likes company and
social life apart from politics, and he is
glad to have his wife invite her friends to
the executive mansion.

and will accommodate 4, 500 tons of freight.
She is now being fitted up in New York,
and when ready will load for her first voy-
age to San Francisco.
One may get some idea of her immense
size from the fact that she carries 1000
tons Of sand as ballast. Her dimensions
are: Length, 312 feet; breadth, 45. Is feet;
depth, $3.50 feet; gross tonnage, 1904. so;
net tonnage, 2, $3.50. She has a flush
main deck Of steel fore and aft, sheathed
with 81 inch hard pine. The lower deck
has steel %stringers and tie plates, planked
with 2 inch hard pine.
Forward is a high topgallant forecastle,
and aft is a turtle deck poop, containing
saloon, captains room, bath and trunk
room on the starboard side, the officers
and spare rooms, medicine room, pantry
and messroom being on the port side. The
cabin is not the usual recess cabin, but is
made after a new design and is prettily
finished in quartered oak and handsomely
furnished.
The vessel is steered by a new screw
steering gear, the wheelsman being pro-
tected by a hood of steel, open on the for
ward end. A flying bridge connects the
poop with the topgallant forecastle for
convenience in bad weather. The bow

lower masts are M piece of steel. The
lower yards measure 80 feet, and the rig

defended ex-Judge Kincaid, the CORE

bee, in the famous trial of three years ago
and won his points in the wal of counsel
at that trial. He defended Schneider in
1892, then on trial for the killing Of his
wife and her brother. He also won laurels
in the defense of Frank X. Ward, the dali
lyman who, in 1888, shot and killed Maui
rice Adler. In this trial, which attracted
wide public attention, ex-Judge Wilson
was associated with Senator Blackburn.
Ward was acquitted.

RHADAMEs SILK AND VELVET COSTUME.
There is no known shade of green that is
not found in this seasons goods, from en-
erald and grass to the old bottle green.
Green mak such q natural contrast to
everything else. 1t is lovely with white,
and it is beautiful with black. It blends
well with all browns and grays, and when
the proper shades are brought together
makes a striking and pleasing contrast
with heliotrope. Russell reds, fawns and
mixtures, all look we'll with green COM
binations or trimming. There is prob
ably no other color so well adapted rs
green to set off the beauty of another tint.
Else why does nature set all her beauties
in green? Artists in dry goods nowadays
try to keep as close to nature as they can.
I made a delighted survey of one of the
newest dresses for spring bearing the
spring colors-purple and green. The
dress was of rich rhadames silk, purple as
the lilac buds just before they open. The
skirt was plain empire style, with three
bands of myrtle green velvet set around the
skirt, each headed with narrow twisted
chenille cords of the same shade. These
reached above the knees. The corsage con-
sisted Of a pointed basque of green velvet,
with a sprung ruf1lc around it. There was
a pelcrine of purple silk bordcrcd with vel
vet and the chenille twists. The gigot
sleeves had COWS of the twist reaching Just
above the elbows. Tho collar was IL plain
choker and not Il very high one either. In
fact, tendency is very strong toward fiat
collars this season. Some Of them arc of
fine lace, and some are ruff slnade of tulle
edged with ribbon. Tulle will be very Of
ten seen for such uses and for fancy vests.
1t will be set in fine puffs, narrow ruf1lcs
n plaitings in preference to the loose CT
fects Worn the last few seasons.
10 return to the silks again. Tho large.
vague, but beautiful cheney patterns will
be very popular, and many entire dresses
will be made Of them, with no trimming
except such as may be put on the waist. A
new fancy in silk is called jcnnesse and is
light and pliablc and has patterns printed
all over 1t, mostly in round rings, dots Or
neat flower designs. There are also several
new ideas in japanese silks, with a variety
OF delicate iAocaded patterns, and these ef-
fects are produced by the artful manner of
weaving black and white only. One could
count q dozen shades Of silvcry white and
gray to black, and they are exceedingly
pretty, all of them.
The faconne or plated silks are silks
with a sort Of satiny upper surface that is
pretty, but not likely to be very durable.
The princess glace silks present over so
different new designs and colors. The
printed pongces will make up very useful
dresses for ordinary summer wear. There
are changeable effects in plain de sole il

GREATER NEW YORK.
MAGNIFICENT POSSIBILITIES in THE
WAY OF AREA AND POPULATION.

II the Plan About to Be Submitted to a
Vote of the People Is Adopted, the Amer
lean Metropolis Will Have a Population
of About Three Million.
At last the question Of a greater New
York, which has been agitated SO long in
the vicinity of the metropolis, is to be sub
mitted to a vote of the people most direct
~ interested-that is, to the citizens of
the various cities and towns which it is
proposed to consolidate in II grand mu-
nicipality. Butt many thousands more than
those who will vote upon the question have
III interest in the result of the vote and
will like to read something of the present
status of the matter.
1t has been under discussion for over 40
years in a desultory fashion, and during
all that time has never been without ar
dent advocates md vigorous opponents,
but nothing like q general interest has
been awakened until within the past few
years, and it was not until 1890 that the
legislature appointed a commission to in
quire into the expediency of consolidating
New York city and it's suburbs lying with
in the state. The several New Jersey towns
which are really q part of the m%etropoli-
tan district are of course necessarily omit
ted from consideration.
The territory proposed to be embraced in
the greater New York includes, besides the
present city, Brooklyn, Long Island City,
Flushing, Newtown, Jamaica and various

glace tafetas will be much liked. These
will be often made up for skirts under the

Some of the lace buntings are as elegant
as guipure lace. They are Of wool. and
there is a long list of new open work or
nearly open woods. Several new weaycs

mesh is SO open. A new hopsack in wide
diamond weave is exceedingly stylish.
There are some in the new shades of cleo

Cambridge twills that will make very
handsome gowns, and with these arc ber-

One pretty novelty is brocaded mohair

HELPED HIM TO MAKE MONEY.
Mrs. Flower Has Been a True Helpmate to
New York's Governor.

W.
When New York's present governor
Roswell T. Flower-was a young man of
IS, all the wealth he had in the world was
81, 900, which he had saved during six
years service as assistant postmaster of
Watertown. This money he invested in
the jewelry business in 1859, forming the
partnership of Hitchcock s. Flower, which
lasted for a couple of years, when MI.
Flower bought his partner out and there
after conducted the business alone. In
Christmas week Of that same ycar-1S59
Mr.. Flower formed another partnership
of longer duration than the jewclry firm.
1t was then he married Miss Sarah NJ.
Woodruff, daughter of Norris NJ. Woodruff
of Watertown, and their partnership has
lasted ever since.
Governor Flower has been a very success
full man in business as well as in politics
and now counts his dollars by millions.
That Mrs. Flowers tactful encouragement
has had a large share in the creation of
that success cannot be doubted by any one
who knows them. She has been q true
helpmate II hOmemaker and has known
how to surround her husband with those
intangible and ~indefinable influences that
make for success, though they may be unac-
knowledged and even unperceived. Many
Of the political leaders who have met Mrs.
Flower at Albany or IN Washington dur
ing the governors service as congressman
are ready to declare that he owes his success
in politics as much to his wife as to any
one else.
The home life of the governor and Mrs.
Flower, whether in their Fifth avenue
mansion in New York, their old home in
Watertown, where they still spend the sum.

Frenchmen are elated just now by the
discovery that their country is about 8, 900

been supposed to be the case. Several years

cABBY's WHITE HAIRED ANGEL,

She Purchases a Dashing Carriage to Re-

If there ever was a lucky cabby, it is
Richard MCGOWAN, who for 10 years
has stood beside his cab at the Staten Is.
land ferry at Whitehall street gather
ing passengers and fares. He and the
cab had stood there in all sorts of wealth.
er. but the cab suffered more than the
man in appearance.
Whenever MCGOWAN saw an old lady
with white hair and a benignant face
come from the ferryhouse, he knew that
he would have a fare. She didn't appear
very often, but she always sought out
MCGOWAN, handing him a bill In. pay
ment and refusing to take the change.
A couple of months ago she told him his
cab vas getting old and rusty and he
should have a better one. The cabman
replied that it would cost 5000, and he
could not afford so much money. One
day the white haired woman told him to
drive her to a carriage manufactory,
They made several trips of that kind.
Then the lady, who is Mrs. Frances j.
Shaw. the philanthropist, told the as.
tonished MCGOWAN that she was looking
for a carriage for him, but could moi
find one that was suitable, and that ha
had better buy it for himself. 1t tool:
