City," when in the night the tail end Of
this vast imperial procession was sud-
denly cut off by a well organized gang
OF bandits. The main part of the pro-
cession passed on in bMssful ignorance
OF the exciting episodes behind. Little
or no resistance was made, the attend
ants being either too terrified by the
bloodthirsty appearance of the bri-
ganus, o.. What is quite as likely, were
too good friends with them to fight,
and a number of carts and Mtters con-
tanning the paraphernalia Of the court,
fuls, vessels, ornaments, embroideries,

robbers. It was only the next morning
that the news of this outrage reached
the city, when Immediately great pre-
ptauations for capturing the brigands
were set on foot, sonre 1900 soldiers
being dispatched to hunt them down.
Great efforts were made to keep the
affair from the ears Of the emperor as
well as from the foreign residents Of
Pekin, and it is very unlikely that the
former will ever hear Of it.

Lamp Shades of Silk and Paper.

Silk shades of the newest design are
usually covered with chiffon or some
ether such gauzy stuff, both fulled and
ruffed until an. airy looking structure
is created-the only rule in making
being that a deep, full ruff1e shall
hang from the outside edge. Such
nice materials make lamp shade not
an inexpensive trif1e-that is, if bought
already made, but in surprisingly
short time and very little trouble the
wire frames can be covered at home
for a fraction of that sum. While
silk is undeniably nicer than other
materials there have been such charm
ing effects produced in Grape paper
that shades made Of it are by nc means
to be despised, for, if well made, they
are quite as pretty as silk. The seri-
GUS objection to paper is it's perisha-
| bility, but when it is taken into con-
sideration that silk is apt to soil it
is question if one is not as service
able as the other-for paper carefully
handled lasts months. When it is used
the latest made shades are composed of
two colors contrasting and the outer
covering is so arranged as to show
glimpses of the under Decorative
flowers, chrysanthemums, poppies, etc,
are scattered over and the effect is
. highly artistic.
In choosing eolors greatest discrimin-
alton is necessary, for lamplight well
shaded is more becoming than any 9th
er, but if not properly arranged the
effect is CHASTITY. Many shades of
green with light shining through make
people look ghostly white, vet there
are a few which are all right Blue
and also white are apt to impart too
white a cast, so pink, yellow and red
are preferred first more than any

Brigandage prevails in China to a
