AT ANTWERP'S FAIR.
AMERICA WELL REPRESENTED IN THE
BELGIAN EXPOSITION.

1t Will Be Prominently a Business Exhi-
bition and Offers Great Inducements to
Our Merchants and Notwithstanding
werp's Advantages as q Market.
Belgium's international exposition,
which opens at Antwerp on May 5, will be
more Important, interesting and attractive
to Americans Than any other of the numer-
GUS European exhibitions of this year,
though We shall probably be adequately
represented at all of them in the matter
OF exhibits as well as by the number of our
people in attendance. Antwerp's exhibit
ton will be by far the largest of the lot
and is expected to surpass the famous Paris
exposition and all others of recent years,
excepting only that of last year at Chicago.
1t will be pre-eminently q business fair,
and will probably afford more profitable
opportunities to our merchants and man
ufacturers than were offered even at the
Columbian exposition.
The advantages of Antwerp as O great
exchange market for American products
can hardly be overestimated. It is the
great commercial emporium for all north
western Europe, and as it's neutrality is
guaranteed by the powers the port is safe
from blockade in case Of war, q fact which
gives it an advantage over any port in
France or Germany as q place for the es-
Establishment of branches Of foreign mer-
camille houses. Tho foreign trade of the
city has increased enormously since the
Scheldt was opened to III by the

dow on the block the curtains move in a
mysterious way, which shows that the
ueighbors also wish to SEQ as much of the
wedding as they can. At any rate, they can
SEQ the wedding guests and perhaps get a
glimpse of the "going away dress. Wheth-
er our interest in brides springs from SYM
pathy with their happiness or pity for their
future d%isillusion I do not know, but the
interest in brides is general.
There has been no prctticr wedding
gown invented than one to be worn in d
few days. This is of white velvet, with q
very long train, bordcred with a band of
white marabout. The shape is princess,
tho left and Topped up on the hip under a
spray Of orange blossoms. This breadth is
faced with satin, so that, as the plaits form
in jabot style, tho satin shows. The back
breadths are laid in heavy plaits. The
sleeves arc gigot in shape and made some
four inches longer than the arm and gath
cred up on tho inside scam under a trail
ing branch Of orange blossoms. I should
have said that the sleeves were Of satin,
with velvet jockeys. There is q slight full
ness of the velvet across the chest. The
collar is Of white satin, with q tuft of Or

The dress fastcns in the back with two
dozen round pearl buttons. There is little
veil, which is ample enough to go over the
whole costume, reaching to the bottom Of
the dress in front and back. 1t is not
he1nmed and is fastened to the hair over
q double spray of orange blossoms.
Velvet is IL fabric very rarely seen for an
entire costume, but a full gown Of white
velvet is simply superb. The rich gloss is
so strange to ones eyes that it strikes one
like a fabric never before seen. Nothing
can approach it for beauty, and this bride
can claim Or iginality in the selection of. her
gown. 1t was made in this country from
the BRIDES W design.
She has two little sisters, who are to be
her bridesmaids, and she designed their
dresses also. The elder has a pale blue and
silver watcher" or brocaded silk, thick
and lustrous. There is no metal in the
fabric, but the silvery pattern is wrought
by silk. There is square yoke, and to this
Is plated the skirt in wv deep box plaits,
one in front and one in the back, while the
sides are slightly gored to stand out. There
is a shirring of the brocade at the edge of
the yoke, and from the shoulder seam there
fall two long ends of pale blue ribbon near
~ to the bottom Of the skirt. Straps of the
same ribbon go over the shoulder, meeting
the two ends that fall from each in the
back. The sleeves are large balloon pufs,
and they stand out stif1y. With this gown
are worn blue silk stockings and bronzed
slippers. On tho right side of the yoke is
pinned a bunch Of purple and yellow pan
Sizes, the brides favorite flower.

cherry red has several shades. A rich yell
low satin under black lace gives an excel
lent effect.
There is q pearl gray crepon made up

weave or crinkle. The darker crepon is

draped up quite high on the hips. This
overskirt is hemmed, but around the edge
is q band Of black lace insertion. The
waist Is OF the dark crepon, draped sur
plice style over Nv shaped inset of the
pearl gray, which is covered with the black
lace insertion. The high collar is of the
pearl gray, with black lace over it. Around
the waist is a twisted belt Of moire of the
darker shade, and this ties in a bow with
short ends at the left side. The sleeves
were balloon puffs, the upper portion of
the dark and the forearm portion covered
with lace over the pearl color. A daintier
gown could hardly be imagined.
These are but few Of the garments con-
sidered necessary to make up a stylish
trousseau. There are capes and wraps, hats
and b%onnets, gloves and shoes and num-
berless trifes In the way Of laces, fans, par
asols and furs, though, to be sure, fllrs are
to be laid away until fall after this month.
Indeed, all but the small capes are already
put aside. Knight mention a carriage wrap
which belongs to the bride Of the velvet
gown. This is of drab and oyster white
brocaded wool for the outside. The wrap
is semimilitary and reaches nearly to the
knees. 1t is lined on the inside with maize
satin and has for trimming a deep silk
rink moss fringe. This is SO thick and
fluffy that one might almost call it a wide
band of angora fur. There is a yoke made
of venetian point lace, laid over maize
satin, and to this the rest is gathered. Of
course this is for ceremonious visits.
must not finish until T tell of the tea
gown that belongs to this outfit. It is of
pale blue crepe de chine, made long and
loose. Around the bottom is a vim of oak
leaves embroidered in silver, and all over
the gown are worked silver acorns. This
is all hand work. The front has two cas-
cades of white oriental lace, with bows of
narrow blue ribbon set at intervals, and
there are silver acorns for buttons, with
silver cord loops. There is a collar of lace
and ribbon. The sleeves are bell shaped
and wide at the bottom, with under
sleeves of net, bordered with a full quilting
OF lace. There is also a very full quilting
OF lace set just under the edge of the skirt
al around and just showing at the edge.
This whole gown is lined with glace taf-
feta, and the crisp rustic it gives is en-
tranclng. Some tea gowns are snug and
trim, and others are large and loose. It is
all a matter Of taste how you shall have
your tea gown made. MATE LEROY.

tern is also wrought On the skirt of the same
kind Of braid. The sleeves are of pulled
bengaline and oriental lace. In the back
there is a bow of moss green ribbon; with
ends reaching to the bottom of the dress.
This bow is sewed to the neck band and
has q very graceful effect. She, the little
wearer, has black silk stockings and
bronzed slippers and will carry a bunch of
white daisies, the groom's favorite flower.
While On the subject of this wedding
I will mention the dress a little cousin
will wear at the wedding, though not as
bridesmaid. The frock is of accordion
plated china silk, in havana brown. There
is an arrangement of ruby velvet ribbon
trimming. The sleeves are of ruby velvet
in full gigot form, with plated jockeys.
In the back the ribbon forms bows with
floating ends instead of ends under bows,
as in front. This wedding will be in one
of our grandest churches. Another we'd

HELEN H. GARDENER. no SEX" Never
theless Mrs. Gardener thinks the lines Of
modern thought and civilization proceed
entirely upon the assumption that man is
the race, and that woman is merely the
annex to him, and candid observation Of
the results, she declares, would be exceed
ingly amusing if it were not often tragic
and always humiliating. Women are
counted in the population. They are made
use OF to swell totals, round out numbers
and serve as ballast. But man is always
the race. Woman is only an annex.
How vigorously Mrs. Gardener condemns
this state of things may best be seen in her
writings, which, however, are not mere
pleas for suffrage and the emancipation Of
her sex, but broad, well considered trea-
tises in favor Of human rights without sex
limitations. She first became known to
the public in 1884 by q remarkable series
Of essays, of which tho first, 'Men, Wom-
en- and Gods" has not yet ceased to be
read. Since that date her pen has been
kept busy furnishing contributions to such
periodicals as the Popular Science Month
ly and North American Review, and she
has written several novels with didactic
motives that have obtained wide %circula-
tion.
4u4o' od1SAOhCi Is IL V1ISluldu NY D1TUl
and was born in 1853. She has the soft
voice and pretty ways of the refined south
ern woman, and her tongue is just tipped
with the peculiar accent Of her people. She
spends about five months of the year in
New York, where she does most Of her
writing, and devotes the other seven to
travel and rest at her Virginia home, where
she says she does her thinking and absorbs
strength by dreaming the days away.
1t Is pretty well understood by this time
that Mrs. Gardeners name, Helen II.
Gardener, is merely a literary p%seudonym,
though even in private life no one ever
thinks of calling her anything else. Mel
Their is it true, as has been said, that it was
her maiden name. AS a matter of fact,
Mrs. Gardener is the wife Of Colonel
Smart, a gentleman known in New York
legal circles, and her maiden name was
C~henowith. Gardener was the maiden
name of Colonel Smart's mother, and his
wife adopted it for literary purposes.

His Detection From the Republican Ranks
Creates a Sensation In Spanish Politics.
The secession of CASTELAR, from the ranks
of the Republican party and his utilization
with the Monarchists in the Spanish cortes
created q profound sensation, when an
nounced the other day, not only in Spain,
but throughout Europe.
More than any other man Of his time
perhaps Emilio CASTELAR, is entitled to be
called 1.-THE great Spaniard." His repub-
iicanism has always been unquestionably
sincere, though it has been of too moderate
a type to suit the radicals. He is some
thing of an opportunist with a~pronounced
hatred of militarism and well understood
aversion to any course Of action likely to
cause civil war and bloodshed. He might
have retained the presidency of the Span
ish republic if he had chosen to submit the
issue to the decision of battle, but he de-
clined.
His hand was on the pulse Of the people,
and he knew they were not sufficiently
emancipated from their ancient traditions

A Human Bridge.

The hundreds of remarkable but
truthful variations which have been
given in this department concerning
the worlds Samsons may be very ap-
.propriately supplemented with the
story of the extraordinary feats Of
strength performed by the Paspischil-
Ii brothers, better known as the "Hun-
garian giants" For years they were
the chief attraction at the Prague
Hippodrome, where the old trick (at-
tributed to Milo, the celebrated wrest,
ler of Crotona), of killing 4-year.old
heifer with single blow of the fist,
and then running around the circus
ring with the carcass on their shoul-
ders, was alternately performed by
these brothers Of herculean strength.
The strength test which attracted
most attention, however, and that
upon which their fame chiefly rests
was that of making the bridge An
adjustible bridge of oak, 27 feet in
length and weighing $50 pounds, was
a part of the paraphernalia used by
the two young giants. This structure
was q common wagon bridge, perfect
in every p.rticular, with the excep-
tion of being without piers or upright
timbers-their places being supplied
by the bodies Of the two strong broth
ers. When everything was in readi-
ness and the bridge il place, standing
upon it's piers of bone, flesh and mus
Gle, the brothers stood facing each
other, IA feet apart and 81 feet from
the abutment.
While in this position, supporting
a structure weighing almost half a
ton, they allowed a two-horse wagon
containing 1000 pounds Of stone and
a burly driver to be driven across the
bridge, the total weight Of the bridge,
the horses, the wagon, the stone and
the driver being 4,750 pounds. Will

A Valuable Secret.

If the anecdote is old, the lesson it
bears can never grow old, any more
than can the divine lessons Of the
Sermon on the Mount. It is related
of Franklin that from the window of
his Office in Philadelphia, he noticed
a mechanic, among a number OF 9TH
ers, at work on house which was be-
ing erected close by, who always ap-
peared to be in merry humor, and who
had kind and cheerful smile for ev-
cry one he met. Let the day be ever
SO cold, gloomy or sunless, the happy
smile danced like a sunbeam on his
cheerful countenance. Meeting him
one day, Franklin requested to know
the secret of his constant, happy flow
of spirits.
''it's no secret, Doctor" the man
replied ;"I've got one Of the best Of
wives, and when I 60 to work she al
ways gives me kind word of encour-
agement, and blessing with her part
ing kiss and when I 60 home she is
sure to meet me with smile and a
kiss of welcome; and then tea is sure
to be ready, and as We chat in the
evening, I find she has been doing so
many little things through the day to
please me that I cannot find it in my
heart to speak an unkind WORD, or give
an unkind look to anybody"
And Franklin adds:
"What an influence hath woman
over the heart of man to soften it,
and make it the fountain of cheerful
and pure emotions. Speak gently,
then. A happy smile and a kind
word of greeting, after the tolls Of the
day are over, cost nothing, and 60 far
towards making home happy and
peaceful."
