and decorations, are an imposing sight
to republican eyes, and we are glad to
be reminded once year that we have an
army and navy Of which there is no rea-
son to be ashamed as far as the per-
sonnet is concerned. AT the reception the
other evening there were fewer people
remaining behind the line in the blue room
than usual. After the diplomats left the
room was almost deserted. Senator Sher-
man, one of the few senators who called,
made long visit, and held little levee Of
his own behind the receiving party Sec
rotary Hoke Smith and the Postmaster
General remained until the last and tow
cred above every one like Gulllvers among
the Liliputians. Mrs. Cleveland was more
gracious, more responsive, more charm
ing than ever, and all the adjectives of
appreciation We're exhausted in her praise.
Few people realize how much nerve force
this responsiveness consumes, or how the
poor hand suffers after having been grip
ped by hundreds of people.
A public reception at the white house
is prolific of amusing scenes. Among
those who wished the President and Mrs.
Cleveland a happy New Year was pro-
vincial couple. The young woman wore
her bridal finery, and Benedict, in shiney
broadcloth and gorgeous red tie, held her
little hand in his, and she nestled up
against him as if afraid she might be lost
dered through the rooms. 1t was enter
tanning to watch with what admiration
and wonderment they looked at every
thing. Occasionally the little girl, for
she was not much else, would put out
her finger and touch something to see
il it We're real. this Aladin-like mag
nificence or If she were dreaming. Then
they would smile their enjoyment into
each others faces. When / saw them
last they We're standing hand in hand
like two children before Andrews pic
ture Of Dollie Madison in the east room,
utterly unconscious that they were at
tracing any attention. "Ain't she pref
ty Polly?" asked Benedict.
Yes" she answered but faint much
like her. She's heap handsomer lookin'
woman to my mind. / reckon the style
OF her frock and her beautiful smile
had somethin ter do with it," And so
they went on chattering about the pic
ture believing il to be Mrs. Cleveland's,
and saying many fine things about it
which Andrews would appreciate.
The most regarded figure at the diplo-
matte reception at the white house was
Mrs Yung Yu. wife Of the Chinese min
lister. The gorgeous court costume of rich
silks heavily embroidered, and the intri-
cate headdress she wore, created much

WOMAN OF FASHION.

New York. Jan. 26-Poor Gotham! 1t
has once more been smitten with the
violet plague. The plague strikes it once
or twice a year, and RACES fiercely for
a few weeks. A week ago violets were
so plentiful that had a triumphal process
sion been unexpectedly organized and the
people been moved to throw their tro-
plies at the feet of the conqueror. they
could easily have covered the pavements
by casting down only the violets that were
pinned in their breasts and bonnets. /
looked far and wide this day week. and
failed to find a woman in the whole
gay throng that hadn't a violet some
where. Many, very many of the men
were similarly decorated.
But don't think they are all genuine.
The distressing part of it all is that there
wasn't one bunch in dozen that gave
forth perfume. The limitations were au-
daciously pinned on the coats of every
one, ornamented with iuttering ribbons
Of the same hue. 1t was wearisome to
look at all the royal sham. Those few
women that carried real blossoms were
easily distinguishable. For the girl that
wore the imitation was content with
very tawdry and cheap variety; and the
eye turned from the glazing purple TO
the softer and more restful tints of the
natural flower.
The miliiners were overrun with VIC
lets and purchasers of them. Women
took off their hats and laid the differ
ent hues upon their brims. to see whether
they could be made charming in any
way with the colors already thereon.
Purple is an accommodating tint. and is
never altogether incongruous. So many
of the women stuck the bunch of yiolets
in their hat, right there in the shop, and
rallied forth to join the march. II was
curious to see them give each other
quick glances-first up at the hat then
down at the bosom.
Paris love of the violet shows itself
more strikingly in the evening gown.
There the heavy white satns are bro
caded in pale puppies, and hung with
violet clusters and trained with grace

full vines. There also, are the royal
trimmings. At the magnificent recep-
lions, also, one sees the altogether pur-
pie costume, toned, sometimes, with
the soft and sable furs.
But the fancy will pass-in fact, is al
ready passing, It is nothing but pres
age of the enforced sorrow we shall soon
begin to evidence. In Lent one resents
the wearing OF blacks and grays and
puppies. just now we refuse all other
colors.
Along with the purple fancy comes
another that suggests the priestly. Per-
haps it is the Introduction of women into
the choirs of the Established church that
have planted In the feminine hearts this
longing to wear stole; perhaps 1t is
only the deeply religious instinct with
which the sex is accredited. Suffice IL
that ,the latest In bodices has always
the semblance of a stole-one which
sometimes falls far below the limits of
the bodice, even over the shirt. The
band scarcely resembles the state of the
reverend functionaries, once 1t has left
the modiste's hands. 1t is embroidered
and festooned and bordered in various
fashions. There are passementaries bor-
dering 1t, medallion and set designs in
jet, or pearl or gold upon 1t, lace laid
over it, strings of pearls falling from
it, and other trimmings of fur and vel
vet embellishing what was once plain
band of satin or other material. Some
times trimming is laid upon the bodice, to
give something of the stole effect. II
NAV be small, set designs of passemen-
terie laid in a long, narrow band down
the front box-plait of the blouse; or 1t
may be narrow lines of a braid or other
trimming or a lace insertion, finished
with a deep lace ruffie that elongates
the effect. Almost anything is legiu-
FrTTF n VI
in the center Of the bodice and If 1t
falls below the waist-line, over the skirt,
all the better.
Two new evening gowns illustrate this
fancy One has a set of stiff, straight
velvet bows, endless, laid down the front
of the bodice, which is carried below the
belt in a long point The bows are quite
wide at the top of the corsage, but mar
row as they descend: and the last one
is the tiniest pair Of loops that we could
contrive Each side of the loops are fes-
toons of black tulle, draped from the
shoulders, and this festoon effect is also
carried out in the draped sleeve puffs.
Small velvet bows trim the shoulders.
The whole effect is most graceful.
The other is "a departure from the
stole, and yet maintains the essential
elongated effect. The corsage-a lace one
with it's lower half covered by a bodice
Of bluet satin, is made in sections that
stand apart to show the lace corsage be-
meath. One of the sections is set In front,
in the center, ending In a slight point
lust below the waist Then the long effect
is carried out by an apron that falls over
the mousseline skirt Of white. The apron
is in the bluet satin, and drops
in a long point down the middle, and in
very short points over the hips. They are
edged with founeing of the white nous
seline.
Other evening costumes have long rolls,
or gathered scarfs, starting at the bosom
and carried half way down the skirt,

SOME Things BEING Done to Abnte It
and others That Might he Tried.

From the Indianapolis Journal
The theater goers OF Carthage. Mo, who
are preparing bill for their state legis-
lature, making It a misdemeanor for la
dies attending the theater to wear high
hats, viii have the sympathy OF all other
theatergoers, but to the Pickings man It
seems as II they are working on tho
wrong track. The only way to fight tho
big hat nuisance is to enlist women in
warfare. Get the leaders of fashion to
promise never to wear big hat a an en-
tertainment to go bareheaded or 10 wear
the small bandeaux, which are now the
most stylish things for theater wear. Get
the millners great and small 10 concert
dainty wrcaths Of flowers and small bows
for evening wear, and TO advertise that
no other style of headgear is fashionable
for evening wear. Women always want
TO be on the popular side and the few
women who find themselves wearing
large hats to the theater will soon take
them Off II on looking around they see
other women bareheaded Nothing is as
becoming TO a woman as her becomingiy
arranged couture with the handsome pins
and combs that arc now worn Then my
fellow men, there is a way IN which you
may aid in encouraging your wives,
daughters, sisters, and mothers to dis
card their hats. Take home a tiny. dainty
evening bonnet as a surprise Or If you are
AFRAID 70 select, give her the money and
tell her 1t is for an evening bonnet. You
may have to sacrifice a few cigars, etc,
but you are aiding a noble cause An
other way in which society men may aid
the work is to wear their dress suits to
the theater No girl would wear her street
dress and big hat to the theater If es-
corted by man IN a dress suit Men in
other cities wear dress suits for calling in
the evening. but Indianapolis men wear
theirs to the theater will find they will
have a remarkable effect on the women
who wear high hats.

From the New orleans Picavune

FROM the rev Orleans Picayune.
An amusing matrimonial case came be-
fore the fifth civil judge Of the City Of
Mexico the other day. A young man,
who is closely related to prominent gem
eral of the Mexican army, was married
about a year ago by civil Judge. 1t
was then mutually agreed between the
contracting parties that the bride should
continue to live with her parents until
the religious ceremony could be per-
formed. Scarcity of funds for the neees-
stiles Of housekeeping was the main mo-
tive for this separation. In the meantime
the Bridegroom has scraped sufficient Of
the wherewithal TO warrant the perform
anee Of the ceremony before the altar,
but the bride has changed her mind

the courts, not for the annullment of the
marriage, but to compel the lady to ac-
knowledge the would-be benedict as a
husband The case is still pending.
