NOTES..

Embroidered Collars and Cufs-Belts Of
Gold Braid and Ribbon.
For wear with untrimnled bodices there
are shown large tlaring collars and cuffs Of
dead white embroidery trimmed with but
ter colored valenciennes lace. These are
pretty, and as they stand laundering well
really give In wear their moneys worth. A
belt and collar Of gold braid, caught with
cut Jet hooks and eyes, are in vogue and
may be worn with any dark colored or all
white bodice. The collar Is formed OF
gold braid little over an inch wido, while
the belt is 2 inches wide, and the clasps
arc selected to suit the width OF each.
Bolts may be Of silk, ribbon OF leather.
Seal or snakeskin belts, with silver buc-
kles, are liked for outing or travelling wear,
and very often have bags to match put up
on them, but for an elaborate waist q
leather belt is not considered in good taste.

Britain to prevent the seizure of Cor.

man, the Nicaraguan minister who had
been waiting with intense anxiety to
see Secretary Gresham, was finally sue
cessfui about O'Clock, when the Sec.
rotary came into the department from
the White House. where he had been in
consultation with President Cleveland,
presumably on the same subject. The
interview was very abort. In five min
utes the minister emerged from the
Secretary's office looking very depressed.
lie refused to say word as 20 what
had taken place, but it can be stated
that the Secretary gave him to UNDER
stand very clearly that the United
States would not interfere in the case
as 1t stands. So there are now three
courses open to Nicaragua. namely; to
pay the indemnity TO permit the cccu-
patton OF Corinto or to fight, and the
next twelve hours must find the choice
declared, for the British troops are to
land at daybreak to morrow at Corinto.
AS already stated in the Associated
Press dispatches, the position taken by
the President In this matter is that the
dispute Is one entirely between Great
Britain and Nicaragua in which the
United States has no call to Interfere,
unless there should be committed acts
injurious to a merican interests in Mic
arngus, or there Is shown disposition
by Great Britain to acquire NicaraRuan
territory. On each of these points q
favorable assurance has been had from
Great Britain, and all, It is said, that
now can be done, 10 to watch the course
OF events. This decision was not hastily
reached, for the entire subject of our
relations to the countries of Central md
South America was considered and dis.
cussed very carefully by the President
with his constitutional advisers, and
there has been made close scrutiny of
the precedents that might suffice for our
guidance. These have been found in at
least three cases.
