IN TAN AND BLACK.
Black is always fashionable Other
coors may come and go, but black holds
its own, always. Many ladies Will not
wear n suit that has not few touches
OF this black. as they think they do not
appear 10 advantage without 1t. This is
particularly the case with blondes, who
find the black an excellent foil for their
fair locks. There Is no denying that tan
is the color for blondes. in spite OF all
efforts TO make blue and bright greens
their own tint. The color of the dress
must match the hair, or there is not the
harmonious appearance desired by every
dresser That is the reason, In the opin-
ton of many color experts that blondes
are more admired than brunettes, because
they can match the hair with pretty
shade of cloth and look the poem" that
a blonde woman always is.
A very neat outing suit for this time
OF the year. and one that is worn by
Mrs. w. X. Vanderbilt, is a black and
tan one that has, for its principal fea-
ture. a tan cape The cape is of dull tan
cloth, exactly the color of the wearer's
hair. which Is like faded leaves. The
cape is trimmed with black embroidery
and has large fancy everything points
that look as II appliqued on. A good
effect is produced by having the points
not fastened on, as they fall easier than
though they were immoyable. Many fash
ionable dressers will not allow their
points-so fashioned now-to be sewed
down tight.
The neck OF the cape is very high, tight
one OF fashion. 1t Is bordered with
smooth black fur OF one of the inexpen-
sive black varieties. This entire cape
fastens in the back of the neck and
is hooked so closely together that the
wearer could not possibly extricate her

thought that could see the shadow of a
half forgotten fear creep into his eyes. If
so, it was soon gone for lifting his head
he spoke boldly and clearly.
''This is my message to you, Thomas

with whom you herd as we have left alive
today. The Captain Bernal Diaz offers you
terms on behalf of his cxcellency the vice

What are his terms?'' I asked.
''Merciful enough to such pestilent rebels
and heathens,' he answered, sneering.
Surrender your city without condition,
and the viceroy, in his clcmency, will ac
cept the surrender. Nevertheless, lest you
should say afterWard that faith has been
broken with you, be it known to you
that you shall not go UNPUBLISHED for your
many crimes. This is the punishment that
shall be inflicted on you. All those who
had part Or parcel in the devilish murder
of that holy saint, Father Pedro, shall be
burned at the stake and the eyes of all
who beheld it shall be put out. Such Of
the leaders of the OtOmie as the judges
may select shall be hanged publicly, among
them yourself, Cousin Wingfeld, and
more particularly the woman Otomie,
daughter of Montezuma, the late king. For
the rest, the jewellers in the City of Pines
must surrender their wealth into the treas
ury OF the viceroy, and they themselves,
men, women and children, shall be led
from the city and be distributed, according
to the vicerOy's pleasure, upon the estates
OF such Of the Spanish settlers as he may
select there to learn the useful arts of hus-
bandry and mining These are the con-
ditiOns of surrender, and I am commanded
to say that an hour is given you in which
to decide whether to accept or reject them. -
And if we reject them?''
"Then the Captain Bernal Diaz has Or
