cgLLuLolD FASHION PLATES.
You Can Fill Them In With n Background
 of Real Cloth.

hou tan FIi1 Them Tn With a Background
 of Real Cloth
 One of the clevcrcst emanations of the fertile Yankee brain which has been put upon the market recently is n set of fashion plates for tailors. These plates arc printed upon sheets of celluloid. Each sheet is lyIs inches long and is inches wide. Before the prints are made these sheets are as transparent as glass.
 There are six sheets ill a set. Upon one is a print of n fashionable pair of trousers, and upon the others full length figures of men dressed in the accepted style of clothing. One print shows the single breasted sack suit, another the double breasted sack suit, another the regulation three button cutaway suit, another the one button cutaway suit for stout men, and the last a fashiona- ble overcoat. In each figure the print is of a man, and he is halted and gloyed and provided in some with a cane.
 The prints seem to be made at first in black outline, with all the proper shades to show the creases and folds as they should be in we'll fitting garments. All the parts of the figures except the gar ment or garments which each print is ko tAoPAey aAS hhSh AAASs A-- with appropriate colors, and the back ground around the figures is filled in Folidly with gold bronze.
 Looked at casually. one does not dis cover the peculiarity of the plates at once. Hold one up to the light, and it will be seen that the parts devoted to garments are as clear IS glass, except for the light shading which indicates folds or creases. Lay one of them over a piece of cloth. and the use of the plates becomes manifest at a glance. The texture of the cloth shows through clearly. and the figure appears to be clothed in perfect fitting garments of the underlying material
 Do you wonder how a suit, an over coat or 0 pair of trousers of some cer- tain cloth would appear when made up, you place plate over it, and. To. there is the garment in all its perfection. That is the purpose of the novel fashion plates. New York Sun.

The Childish yoic. Too ,,ucb

A good story Is told of SignOr fOli, the famous basso. Once upon a time he was singing The Raft, when a child ish voice from somewhere in the stalls suddenly piped i'll and attempted to or ganize an impromptu duet. Cnfortu- nately the next line of the song WAS: ''Hark! What sound is that which breaks upon mine ear:" This so tickled the fancy uf the great vocalist that he burst into a hearty fit of laughter and left the platform. followed by the pi- anist. Twice they came back and at tempted the song. and finally they had to give it up ill despair. much to the amusement of the audience

Great Football Game Today Between the
 Princeton and Pennsylvania Teams.
 PRINCETON, \. |, Nov. 1O.-After 13 weeks of training Captain Trenchard will this afternoon lead his canvasback war riors into the arena at Trenton to do bat tie with Captain Knight of the Pennsyl- vania team and his lO stalwart comrades.
 Some idea of Princeton's ability to wrcstle with the Pennsylvania eleven may be direved from her general and individ ual work this season. In some respects the present team is tho best that ever dOnned orange and black. True, in 1889 and 1893 the elevens. with their aggre- gation of stars, possessed individual strength and brilliancy. but as regards unity of action and general team play the present eleven rather outclnsses some of its predecessors.
 The Princeton eleven left here today noon for Trenton. where they will line up against Pennsylvania at 2 clock. Prince

 It will be some days before the tele- graph wires along the railroads will be in good order. The New York, New Haven X Hartford road yesterday had commdni- cation with New Haven and Springfield and with about all the small towns on the line of the road. The New England road has all the wires working west of New Britain. but yesterday it had no wire from Hartford to that city. The road has no telegraphic communication to East Hartford. Vernon has a wire to Boston. but west of Vernon the wires are nll down and East Hartford is completely cut of. The least damage to the wires along any of the railroads was along the Philadelphia X Reading. and yesterday all its wires were in working order.

 PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1O.-So secretly have the Quakers been practicing new plays for tho momentous game with Princeton that on Wednesday last the team mysteriously disappeared from town and was not heard from up to last night, when 1t was nscertained that the men had gone to Delaware water gap, and ad- vices from there reported that every man Is in the best of condition.
 The team left for Trenton early this morning over the Belvidere road and will take up quarters at a hotel in that town until the hour for the game.
 The excitement in this city over the probable result of the game is at fever heat. At least 2, ,O00 students have gone to sec the game today. and the great col lege halls are absolutely deserted.
