FAsHroNABLE WEDDIyGs.


Weddings. like the weather, always with
us. and bridal gowns have sentiment which in
vests them with an interest, despite the fact that
there is very little variety In style. White satin
continues TO be the favorlte material for we'd
ding gowns, and lace chiffon, iulle, and orange
blossoms the favorite trimmings. Any scheme OF
color which can I've carried out effectively in the
bridesmaids costume il admissible. At recent
fashionable wedding in London the bride wore
the conventional dress OF ivory white satin, made
with long train. and trimmed with white chif-
fon. pearl passementerie. and satin ribbon. The
tule veil was caught together Mt the top in
bunch OF outstanding loops. The bridesmaids
were dressed in white China silk. adorned with
lace and baby ribbon. and wore large white hats
trimmed with ostrich feathers and pink carna-
tions. The little maid OF honor wore simple

WRECK OLA GREAT RAFT.

I rtions of the great CT ar shape
raft which went to pieces in q Storm
few dnys ago. says the San Francisco
E.ran. iner, still strew the coast and have
caused much alarm 10 the shipping in
terest.
1t was an enormous raft, the largest
ever set aHoat on the coast, and will
rank in history with the famous Jog
gius raft, lost between Nova Scotia
and New York few years ago.
1t took forty skilled men from August
l to couple of weeks ago 10 construc;
this raft. Besides these there was q
small army of men working in the sur
rounding forests chopping the trees,
trimming them and bringing down the
logs. Many of the logs were of great
length. The timber consisted of the
best Oregon pine, so called, and it was
in the main very straight and clear,
being free from knots.
The loss will fall heavily on Mr..
Baines and his partner, Mr. Robertson.
They intimate that when the immense
bulk of logs went to pieces they lost
$4,000. Had it hung together they
would probably have received $4,000
for it. II is improbable that they will
try another similar experiment very
soon. Mr. Baines says he has had
enough of it, though he says he believes
the cigar-shaped raft on this coast may
vet be made success, even for SO long
distance.
The giant raft was sight as it float
I'd out upon the ocean. 1t was 525 feet
long and contained between 100000
and 100000 feet of timber. l. rose
seven feet out of the water at its highest
point and lis bottom was 20 feet below
the surface. 1t was exactly in the
shape of ciga,, and pointed at both
ends 1t was so feet in the centre, with
central circumference of 1877 feet
and circumference at each end of 60
feet.
1t was firmly secured with chains,
the main chain running fore and aft its
entire length, and through the centre.
The chain was of one and seven-eights
inch iron, and, by the way, it was
historical, having been the anchor chain
of the Inflated United States warship
Vandalia, wrecked at Apia, Samoa, in
the terrible storm few years ago.
Run at right angles at intervals of
- feet also were cross chains of one
and one-quarter inch iron. They were
attached to the main chain and ran to
each side of the raft.
These in turn were constructed with
an encircling chain of one and three
lights inches of iron, which encircled
The raft at regular intervals also of u
feet. All the chains were connected
with the main chain, so that when the
strain of towing came on the main chain
it would be brought to bear on every
chain in the structure.
