| HAMILTON, Bermuda, ~, 1.-THE
sight that greeted my gaze upon COM
ing on deck after those three woeful
days spent in the seclusion of my cabin
drove every unpleasant recollection from
my mind. The profession of green trop-
ical foliage scudding past us on the
shores of these 365 islands, the wonder
full radiance of the bright blue sky and
the SOFT balmy springness i'll tho air
afforded a marvellous contrast to the
weather we had left behind us in Now
York only 65 hours before
We went Immediately to our hotel,
where u note from IL member of the one
Bermudan family whom we were for
tunate enough to know informed US of
the death tho night before of near
relative, whose funeral the next day
would prevent our friends from coming
to US until the afternoon following.
Later, upon inquiry, was told that on
account of the warmth of the climate
and the total absence of ico-except'in
the largest hotels which manufacture
their own-it was found always neces-
sary to give intcrment tho day after
procure mourning at such short notice,
it has become the custom of the island
ers to borrow from ono another the req
uisite habiliments for tho funeral
1t will be remember d that Bermuda
is one of England's most powerful
strongholds, second only to Gibraltar in
being the strongest fortified place in the
world, and therefore the military and
naval society ranks among the highest
to be found in any of the British posses
sions, the finest regiments and battleships
being sent out from 'home" to protect
this important station. 1t is curious how
faithfully the British oolonists speak Of
home Even those Of them who have
never been to England, and whose an
cestors for generations have never SGT
foot there, always speak of the mother
land as 'home.
Prince George of England. now Duke
OF York, with his late lamcnted broth
er, the Duke Of Clarence, passed several
months in Bermuda during the winter
of 1891. The loyal hearted, hospitable
Bermudans We'd with one another in
good naturod efforts to give the royal
guests good time
A certain wealthy Bermudan matron
was giving lawn party in honor
of the royal visitOrs-a formal affair,
after the approved custom of heavy
English hospitality-when suddenly in

of constraint that enveloped the party

Soon after our arrival wo discovered

that frequent inquiry ~ to our route

field beyond stood an old negro whom /

Tor suit, many others have shrinking
dislike to appear on the street i'll their

such are tho graceful and womanly
little mantles made of lace and silk
and decorated with oil sorts of pretty
fancies One seen yesterday was very
dainty. 1t was of black surah with q
polka dot in swivel pattern at intervals
There was high, pointed velvet collar
edged with jet beads This collar was
FLASHED into three points, front and back
and the intervening spaces were filled
in with surah The surah was cut in q
deep rufflo and plated only Oh the top
of the shoulder, and it was edged with
Jet trimming. Beneath this was fall
of lace There was tab Of the surah
hanging in jahot fashion. and OH each
point there was a small bow Of black
ribbon. The whole wrap was extremely
pretty and could be worn over any
gown and to any place.
Another handsome wrap had IL round
fiat collar of black faille scwcd with jet
ornaments Above this Il lace ruff stood
up to the chin, and from the lower edge
there fell full cape of black Spanish
lace Is inches deep. There We're two
Jabot tabs in front made of the faille
doubled. and this was sewed with Jet
beads in n palm leaf pattern, ending in
piquetS The lady who wore this wrap
had two panels made of two lengths of
black lace set on the sides of her gown,
which was of chaudron and brown strip
ed taffet;A This gave the effect of tabs
TO the bottom, and though am not
quite certain l think they We're pos
tiche, as am sure saw a black safety
pin mention this because it gave II
much more elaborate effect than the
wrap would have had without them.
Black Spanish lace is very rich and 10
cheaper than l have ever seen it. There
are also excellent limitations which give
good wear, and which are used very Law
tshly on many handsome garments.
