cradle. The stuff was forwarded in
due course, but suddenly the order was
duplicated in a violent hurry, and on
the same day a new cradle was ordered,
with equal haste. When the merchan.
disc had been shipped and paid for,
still another for a specially made cradle
and more lace came in hurry likewise
and then a curious state of affairs was
made known. 1t appears that little
Esther is AN unusually destructive
miss. All babies are, more or less, but
this baby tears everything she can and
has peculiar aversion TO cradles. The
trouble is that the little one is very
strong for . mere babe and can tear
and smash things that a grown person
might. under ordinary circumstances,
have difficulty in destroying. She like
wise has a weakness for beating cut
the brains of nurses with rattles snd
spoons and objects of similar nature
that happen to be handy. The little
thing is thus powerful factor in the
Cleveland administration.

1t reached to the waist and buttoned
diagonally across the front with large
pearl buttons. The collar was faring
and was cut away on each side of the
chin, making V over the purple gown
beneath. Instead of sleeves there were
immense cape-like affairs plated in at
each shoulder. Pipings of white cloth
formed the trimmings and the collar
was lined with white. Pipings appear
frequently in the new spring wraps,
especially for young girls. A marine
blue cape for a young miss of twelve
years was piped up and down the gored
seams and around the collar with white
cloth.
MANY of the jackets have vests, be-
cause they do not button together, and
the vest is necessity for early spring
days. a tan jacket had vest of brown

made of perforated cloth over another
material of contrasting shade. A
light fawn color had pale blue lining

dark green showed rose color be-
meath. But this is a relic of the styles
of last fall, and will not be especially
popular.

beginning to be felt that all the Wander
bits, feeling, no doubt, that they are
tremendously wealthy and superior to
considerations that would concern ordi-

things for those social and convivial
joys which prove very tempting, of
course, to persons in their position.
Added TO this is the circumstance that
all four of the brothers Vanderbilt are
abroad. a thing that has never before
happened since William II. went TO his
last repose. In truth, the Vanderbilt

who have a well defined mechanical
genius, and are regularly employed in
some manufacturing trade, and good

These little wraps are not much pro-

good one and should be encouraged.
The best way to cultivate such a ha bit
is to wear pretty gown beneath, and
then ones inclinations will coincide
with ones solicitude for ones health.
Some of the gowns which grace the
pews nowadays are to be recommended
from this sanitary view of the case. a

The skirt had many cores and was
trimmed with lace yelled satin ribbon.
The waist was black mousseline de sole
over mauve silk. A yoke was outlined
with lace trimming like that on the
skirt. and wide bretelles of the same
trimmed the shoulders. The sleeves
were trimmed with lace. and were
tight from the elbow down.
A dark green gown trimmed with
ribbons and guipure lace was not less
striking. There was a band of the

juncture, John 6. Carlisle, secretary of
the treasury, and David 3. Hill, who
have such information. There has
been a good deal of speculation as to
the presidents intentions in the matter,
and the determination he arrives at
will have considerable effect on the
monetary and business situation. which
is one reason why the field of inquiry
has been narrowed. The fact that
these men know SO much about it and
why has leaked out, in view of the
into the general confidence, so many
interests being concerned.
1t seems that when Mr.. Morgan and
the president talked the financial stu
alton over, the question of the attitude
of the last and present congresses had
to be considered. The financisrs were
under some apprehension that in case
the new congress were called in hurry
and for time Mr. Cleveland was
ru'nored to have some such purpose
the general confusion would further
unsettle the country's finances There
upon Mr.. Carlisle was called in and the
three men arrived at tecit under
standing that no step of the sort would
be taken until autumn at least and
probably not then. Mr.. Hill, mean

extra session. The intimation was con-

his expressed intention to help the adj
ministration in every possible way on
the floor of the senate.
Now these understandings We're not
made known at the time because the
situation had not, SO to speak, SIM
mered down, and every one was talk
ing of a speedy convocation OF the
Fifty-fourth congress. But moments
thought convinced the financiers that
an extra session would set the pot boil
ing all over again. In London, where
the matter was thoroughly understood,
some anxiety was caused on this point
and the Rothschilds cabled over here,
as is now well known in Wall street,
for information. They got reply to
the effect that no extra session was
likely, and that is the reason they
doomed the loan so heavily when the
public subscriptions were opened. This
explains what is still a puzzle to many.

shot up to such An enormous premium
in a night and actually have outdis-
tanced British consols in the British
capital
The one fact remains, therefore. that
the administration has no intention of
bringing congress to the capital until
the late autumn, and in all probability
not then. That is where Mr.. Cleveland
