FEATURES OF FASHION.
Popularity of Separate Waists and Crepon
Skirts-Fabrics For Evening Gowns.

Popularity of Separate Waists and CrcpOn
SLirts-FabriCs For Evening Gowns.
One of the leading features of the
seasons fashions is the black Crepon
skirt which appears on all occasions, at
all hours, and has completely usurpcd
the black MORE so popular last year. 1t
is usually devoid of all trimming, the
smartness of the costume being contrib
uted by the bodice. This fad for waists
differing from the skirt promises an in
definite extension and will blossom out
in fresh varieties as the season advances.
The skill of the dressmaker seems
likely to be taxed to the utmost in the
varied phases of the modern skirt The
latest decree in Paris is that the skirts
of morning dresses shall be short enough
to clear the ground, and made with no
fullness at the waist, either at the back
or sides. They must be fitted very care
fully around the hips and stand out in
folds at the feet in front as well as at
the back. Another variety of skirt orig
mating in Paris has three box plaits in
the back, which meet, and three III
front, which are separated. Three bands
of guipure embroidery ending i'll rosettes
of velvet trim this skirt.
Cloth dresses are still much worn
and will be until warm weather makes
them an impossibility.
As has been intimated, separate waists
are rather increasing in elegance than
showing any sign that their popularity is
waning. \ simple and at the same

While the wind carried the sand around
the lot yesterday the infant and its
mother reclined on the bed, which occu-
pies the front end of the wagon, and seemed
as happy as though she was housed in q
palace, beyond the fact that the destitute
condition of the family worried her.
Lasley was stretched on the floor, read
ing paper. When asked how they were
getting along he threw aside the paper and
said:
"I have not been able to get anything to
do and we are hard up. If some OF the
good people of San Francisco knew of our
condition, believe they would help u.s."
"Blt we don't want clothes" added Mrs.
Lasley. 1.-THE children need shoes, but
that is all in that line.'
"Well, | need clothes; but we need other
things worse. Just as soon as my wife is
well we are going to Colorado, as have
been offered an agency for a ball-bearing
sickle and think can do well with it.

route our outfit, and, now that we have

resolutions were right and just, and they
were adopted. Then the congress ad-
journed, to meet in Rochester on the 18th
of August"
In answer to the question where Miss
Anthony herself was during these stirring
times, she answered that she was teaching
school in New York.
"My father and mother attended the
congress in Rochester and they were per-
fectly charmed with Mrs, Stanton's ideas
their letters were full of nothing but con-
gress. / did not believe in women voting
at that time, though I heartily indorsed
all that was said about equality between
men and women in work. Two years later,
however, when another congress was held,
ported in the Tribune, and it was reading
those articles that converted me to the
cause. Since then have devoted my life
to the work of woman's suffrage"
When asked whether there had been
many stun bling blocks in the way, Miss
Anthony admitted that her path had been
strewn with cares at first. Let your
women keep silence in, the churches
That was the text they always hurled at
our heads. Before giving lecture have
known every minister in the town to de-
nounce us from the pnlpit beforehand,
calling US infidels, because they said our
speaking in public was in direct opposition
to st. PauI's teaching. AS rule, on the
night of the lecture the ministers arranged
prayer-meetings at the same hour, and
made the women understand that their
souls salvation depended on attending the
meeting"
1t was not in any spirit of reproach that
Miss Anthony recalled these souvenirs of
oppression, but rather with gentle salts
faction.
"See how things have changed, now,"
she said, and her pale face lighted up
