AT present four legislatures are consider

The New York statesmen may legis-
late against the big theater hat, but the
women will never agree as to the amount
of felt, feathers and fuss required to con-

The Colorado legislature should be

the high theater hat. The three women
who are members OF that body take off
their hats in the legislative hall Sioux

ularity. But tho knitting machine and
other modern improvements in manufac-
turing hose have swept away much of the
Interesting old time fancy work and have
Ia many cases supplied nothing in their
place that is as attractive.
There is nothing more pleasing in the
way Of fancy work than little knitted
socks and sacks for babies There are
number of ladies who keep these on hand
because there are plenty of little ones in
the world for whom they make the most
appropriate and acceptable gifts All
books on knitting give directions for max
ing them, and they furnish desirable occu-
patton for leisure moments. If one but
takes care Of the odd times between other
pursuits and improves the intervals, there
is no lack Of dainty knitted articles when
the time comes to make a present to
baby.
The first figure in today's picture wears
o gown Of bluet wooden goods trimmed
with sapphire velvet. The bell skirt has
two deep tucks around the foot and is
slightly fulled at the waist. The bodice
Is gathered to q small yoke, and a slashed
bertha edged with velvet surrounds the
yoke. The plain collar and the belt are
of velvet, are the cuffs of the gigot
sleeves. The second figure wears cloak
of dahlia CLOTH The front of the garment
Is mounted in plaits on a square yoke of
dahlia velvet, buttoning at the side with
large pearl buttons. The back is laid in
hollow pIaits, and wide velvet belt holds
the fullness to the figure behind, passing
under the plaits in fronts. A large velvet
collar covers the shoulders, and there are
a small rundown collar and turned back
cuffs of velvet. JUDO CHoLLET.

edlv smart. Bretcl3es to match consider
ably enhance the effect. 1t is wonderful
what few wen thought out touches can
do IN a toilet, and a woman with keen
sense OF color is always sure TO be better
dressed, if less extensively, than one who
dresses by rule, with no guiding taste of
her own.
A decided novelty is tho princess pelisse
of tan or huff face cloth. The cut, as the
name advises, is the princess, all in one
The back is elegantly but slightly trained,
spreading out from three padded and
rounded folds. The back seams Of the bod
ice part are trimmed with embroidery or
any rich CONNECTION such as the artistic soul
loves There is fun round collar of fur
But the piece &c resistance is the over
sleeve. This is in plush or velvet and
hangs to below the hips in a sort of loose
cape, lined with colored satin or brocade
It is gathered into three very full and
rounded folds on the shoulder only an
inch or two below the fur collar The
color of the velvet can be what the taste
directs.
House and tea gowns are Of soft, bright
colors this season, the most fashionable
tints being turquoise blue, maize and gera-
MUM. The vatican back prevails, and
the neck Is usually eneircled by ruffle of
lace or~gauze. The eirdle is OF ribbon or
beaded gaIloon. These gowns are mainly
of surah or crepon and are often accordion
plated. The one shown in the sketch is
OF Byzantine crepon with a vatican back,
fun front and ribbon girdle The adjust
able collar and cuffs are Of white organdie
trimmed with yellow yalenciennes lace.

Crossing the i,oyapry Greek.

There Is n spirited discussion in the pa.
pers at this time caused by the War De-
partment presenting a medal for bravery
to Captain D. 4. buckingham for crossing
Rowanty Creek. Va. on February s, 1865
Any person who has baen in the South
knows the persistence with which the ma.
tives apply the terms 'ereekn and river"
to what are only ordinary bitches. Leading
an unacquainted person to suppose they
are large bodies of water. The stream in
question. while dignliled with the name
creek, was noting larger than an ordinary
sized mill race. and / am surprised that
crossing such little body of water can
be the cause OF such antagonlsm among
the men who fought for the nations
honor, side by side.
Two or three long plunges by an ordi.
nary sized man would take htn across
this stream, and when men under fire
from rifle pit get excited, they are very
apt to plunge headlong Into such place,
and cross before they are aware OF 1t.
Such was. in my opinion. the condltionof
affairs at Rowanty Creek on February 5th,
1865. and IL Captain buckingham was, as
he has proved to be. the first one to cross,
ne is entitled to the honor, and Il looks
small and selfish In others to contend for
1t after 1t has been granted to him.
