clothes for men: severe simplicity is,
as always, the best possible style. One
item is insisted upon and that is tying
your own cravat instead of wearing
made-up bow; you must tie it butterfly
fashion, being careful not to let the
lawn remain too smooth; in fact, the
more it looks like a butterfly that has
been out in a storm the more truly
smart" you are. Do you carry your
handkerchief inside your waistcoat;
keep it in your hip pocket, where it
does not interfere with the fit OF any
garment. Above all things do not carry
silk handkerchief with evening
clothes; let it be of cambria, with
nothing to distinguish it save f1neness
and whiteness. The winter neckties
for day wear are extremely pretty.
White ties are less worn, except at
weddings as a rule as a white silk or
satin tie with a jeweled pin is not alto
gether elegant There are many ties in
rich colors and fine quality of heavy
satin. Nothing can be better style
than tie Of black satin with white
figure or dot, adorned with a handsome
but not too elaborate scarf pin.
Men have so few opportunities of
wearing jewels that if they are fond or
them the temptation is very strong to
run to extremes in the matter of scarf
pins, rings and cuff buttons. I know a
man with a liking for rings; he cannot
stand the chatting of his business asso-
GATES however. so he only dons his
rings when he dresses for dinner.
Nothing seems more difficult of at
tainment to some people than simplici
~ in rainent and appointments To
be too swell is always to be in bad
style, and one would much better be
too far on the side of severe plainness.
There is one point in which men can
with advantage curb the present fash
ion, that is in the decoration of UNI
brella and walking stick handles. The
wild patterns in silver and the painted
china or the crystal globes that sur
mount some of the umbrella handles
are more conspicuous than refined;
nothing is more elegant than an UNI
brella handle of perfectly plain straight
wood-ebony, grape vine, cherry or
other pretty wood. A walking stick of
the same wood may be tipped at tor
with a band of silver. One point about
carrying sticks and umbrellas. Be a
little considerate of the persons who
may be walking directly behind you. /

New Japan.

The land tax is a continual griev-
ance. The peasant severed from his
feudal lord asserts that the land is his
own, and he does not see why he
should pay dues for it, call them by
what name men will. An assessment
of value every five years was promised,
which has not been made, though the
tax has been reduced and its proper
ton to the total revenue of the country
is much lower than formerly. 1t is
also pleaded that the railways now in
progress viii alter the value of prop
erty in many places, and that a re-
assessment can not be fairly made till
the main lines are completed.
In Mitford's Tales Of Old Japan" is
related the story of Sakura, who met
his death in the seventeenth century
by his resolution in bringing before the
Shotgun in person the grievances of his
fellow-ag riculturalists, oppressed by
their feudal lord. Unable to obtain
redress from any subordinate authority
he concealed himself beneath a bridge
over which the Shogun's procession
must inevitably pass, and, climbing out
at the crucial moment, thrust his me-
mortal at the end of a bamboo stick
into the dictator's litter This was a
capital offense, and even-handed JUS
tice punished the oppressors but exc
cuted the complainant.
An Englishnan travelling quite lately
in the part of the country inhabited
by this Japanese tribunal, found his
tomb and a temple erected to his mem

One Touch Of Nature.

A few of the guests Of the Waldorf
hotel, who had arrived from out of
town during the day and who went
10 the theater last night. were rather
astOunded at the aspect Of the inter-
Tor OF the hotel when they returned
late in the evening. The Bachelors
ball, by the time the theaters were out
had practically taken possession of the
entire lower part of the building. The
women were dressed in a. fashion to
attract the attention of even an an
chorite. 1t is doubtful if there have
been so many pretty girls at any of
the big dances this season. The an

turer from Wisconsin, in a pepper-and-

pulled over his eyes, as he started M

young men, was amusing. He first
looked startled, and, then, stepping
aside, stood near post by the staircase

that the glances occasionally thrown
back at him were nearly all as anna

he continued to gaze at the pretty
girls until one Of the managers of the
ball happened to notice him.

ger man, civilly. 1T is indeed said
the old manufacturer, still smiling and
watching the girls. 1T makes me
think of the difference between the

when You Write to the Queen.

A useful piece of information to any
of those suffering from that dreadful
infection cacoethes scribendi, and who
in consequence feel themselves inpelled
to write to Queen Victoria, will do well
to bear in mind that they must on no
account fold the paper on which they
have written. No communication
which bears evidence of having been
creased will ever fall into her maiestv's
own hands. The proper method is to
write on thick, glossy white paper. and
to despatch the missive in an envelope
which fits it. Any folded communica-
ton never reaches the queen, for the
simple reason that she will never look
at It, All such letters are opened by
the mistress of the robes. and as a rule
their contents never get beyond her.
or if the letter is of Importance it is
returned to the writer with directions
how to forward it.-London Letter.

To BE Too swell Is in Bad Taste
Severe Simplicity the Thing.

The prevailing 1880 styles have affect
ed even the garments for men. The
extremely fashionable overcoat is a

cloth, fitting snugly and with long
sl1irted tails reaching almost to the
tops of the shoes. It may be of black.
dark blue or brown. With this coat is
worn bell crown silk hat. The outfit
is Tather extreme but picturesque. The
flowing skirts Of the coat make it a
not altogether comfortable garment for
the busy American. We may look pres

fitting the leg closely below the knee.
which belong to the same period, and
possibly also the same frilied shirt and
lace necl1cloth. The more popular over
coat for general wear is the Chester
neld. 1t is cut long. to just below the
knee, single breasted and is oftener
black than Of any other color. This.
coat has a velvet collar and sometimes
velvet cuffs; the latter are hardly a
desirable addition, as they always sug-
gest covering worn sleeve. Avoid fur
trimmed overcoats except for evening
wear or driving; they have little style
and are heavy and cumbersome. Long
heavy ulsters are, of course, desira bic
FOR very cold weather; they are made
with detachable capes and are a most
comfortable garment for travelling.
The frocK coat for this winter is not
as extreme in length as that of last
year and is therefore much more grace
ful. It is made of rough soft goods and
frequent : has a half facing of silk let
into the lapel. It is worn unbuttoned.

Thomas Graham, a carpenter living at
so Sims street, and his son, Thomas, Cy-
rus Chisholm and Daniel Polite, all col
ored, came near being drowned in Gala
boga sound off Bloody Point, Monday
night. They left the city that day about
! o'clock in a sail boat for Hilton Head on
pleasure and trading excursion, taking
with them lot OF castnets and fishing
tackles, which they expected to sell on
the island.
About dark when off Bloody Point a
squall struck the boat, breaking the mast
and capslzing it. The occupants held
on to the wreck and drifted
about until 9 O'Clock at night when thev
were rescued by Capt. II. A Sisson,
keeper of Bloody Point lighthouse, who
heard their cries and went to the rescue
The boat was about two miles from the
lighthouse when Capt Sisson reached it,
The weather was very stormy, and the
men were washed from the wreck several
times. The rescue was made with the
keepers boat, which his wife helped him
launch. When he got to the men the
father and son were taken into the boat.
The other men rghted the sailboat's bat
teau and got into it and were towed to
the beach. Five minutes more and the
men would have been lost.
Capt. Sisson took the men to the
lighthouse and provided them with
clothes and sent them to the city, where
they arrived yesterday morning They
are very thankful to Capt. Sisson, as
they would probably have been drowned
before morning had he not rescued them.

MORE ABOUT THE GAMBLERS.
Freeman Dismissed by the Recorder.
The Gambling Outfits.


] c. w Freeman was dismissed by the
| recorder yesterday morning, the evidence
not being sufficient TO prove that he was
| in the gambling room over the corner of
1 Bull and Congress streets when it was
raided Saturday night
Willie Watts, the colored Waterman,
who was at the street door when the de-
| teCtives entered, and who ierked the
string which was suspended from the
| third floor where the gamblers were,
thereby giving the alarm, was arrested
I by Detective BOsseu Yesterday. Watts
gave the whole story away and is likely
to make a very bad witness for the gam
blers. lie said that he was hired by Chas-
serOw, and that specific orders had been
given him by ChasSerOw not to leave the
door for any cause that night. Watts
said that all the parties arrested had been
up stairs for over two hours. This con-
tradicts the stories told by Oracle and
Wilbur, who were released by the re
corder. They claimed that they had
gone up TO the place in search of rooms of
the Savannah Travellers Association ana
that they had only been there a short
while when the place was raided.
An interesting question has arisen as to
what disposal will be made of the poker
tables, faro layout and other gambling
paraphernalia found in the rooms and
taken possession of by the officers. In
some cities in the state these articles are
destroyed by order of the court. and in
others they are retained in the possession
of the officers of the court. In Savannah
IL has been the custom to return the out
TITS TO the gamblers after their cases
have been dispose of, and in this way it
has happened that the same gam blingoutfit
has been captured more than once.
1t is evident that the return of the in
struments of their trade TO the gamb lers
is an induCement to them 10 resume bust
ness, in the hope of recon- ping their losses
and there is a sentiment among those
familiar with this state of affairs that the
gambling outfits should be destroyed as in
other cities. There does not appear to be
any law upon the statute books, however,
requiring the destruction Of such nipple
ments.
City Attorney Adams, who was ap-
pealed TO on the subject, said that as far
as he knew there was no law requiring
the destruction of gambling implements
and he could find no provision TO this eff
feet in the either the state or the city
code, Looked at logically there does not
seem TO be any more reason why a gam
blers tools should be returned than a bur
glars. Both are contraband.
