"L,nrnedn Men Confounded.

Old Bill is hunter and trapper in the
White Mountains. He is a great speculator
in the field of fmechanical laws and as he has
10 "bookI arnin' " he is obliged TO work
out his own theories. He is very fond Of tell
ing how lac got the better of three 'I'arned
men on what was to him notable occasion.
These three men were discussing the neces-
sity of the suspension of motion before
taking an opposite direction. Old Bill, who
was listening, made bold to deny the law
and offered to refute il 30 their salts
faction. Opportunity being given, he pro-
pounded the following ingenious theory:
"S'pose," said Bill, that you take q
cannon bali in which there is hole Just
big enough to hold a rifle ball. You take the
cannon ban and fire il from cannon and
at the identical time another man fires a
rifle ball from a pint 'zactly opposite. These
two balls meet, s'pose, in the air, the rifle
bali Jest fittin into the hole in the cannon

Now, Of course, the cannon bah bein' the
heaviest viii jest take the riile BAN right
along with il in the same direction without
stoppin'. Won't it? Well. then, the rifle

gaily flowcred, are said to be in good

Again a mohair gown will show no but

jacket fastening neatly under stitched

AS for the French mohairs themselves,

loose sort OF bunting weave, and not even
in black do they suggest the shiny funereal

Imagine girl who will be % years old

her to a court carriage, where a driver and

cooked hats
After drive of twenty minutes through
a picturesque park the chateau was
reached. At the door stood a number of
servants in gay liveries.
The lady was taken to room done all
In red satin, where the lady-in-waiting
Countess L, gave her tea off n gold
ice from the cups of The finest Scvres.
A few moments elapsed before it was
announced that the empress was ready,
so the lady was now shown into a very
large room done in blue satin. Coming
to meet her was a girl, looking very
young. quite fair aud rather tall This
was the empress. She was dressed in
black chiffon. the whole court being still
in deep mourning for the late emperor.
At her neck she Wore a small miniature
of her husband, the young emperor. 1t
was surrounded by immense diamonds.
On her fingers were many splendid rings

She was very shy at first, but afterward

her family, whom she loves and whom the
lady knew.
The audience lasted about half an hour,

a charming impression of youth, beauty
and simplicity. The lady was then shown

Black Silk Gowns with Dinner
Coats Are Most Useful and
Economical.

New York, July IA plain skirt and
what is known as a "dinner coat is the
model of black silk gown late from Paris.
The quality OF silk is peau de sol, whose
satiny surface and soft pliable texture seem
to combine the splendors of satin with the
virtues of silk, and the skirt has the spread
ing umbrella look OF all French skirts now
adays. The cut OF the coat borders strongly
on the Louis XIV order being strongly
flared in the tail and opening over vest as
was the fashion of that period.
Immense jet buttons picked out with gilt
ornament the fronts, which hang slightly
loose at the waistfrom the under arms seams;
the back fits snugly into the figure, and
under the small revers of the coat buttons
are sewed, to which ornamental revcrS Of
satin in some gay color may be attached
for festive occasions. The dinner coat Illus
trated shows these revers attached. They
are in deep butter yellow, the bag vest
being of crepe in the same shade, and made
exceedingly becoming at the bust line by
yellow ribbon drawn across and knotted at
the left.

green leaves These last are especially be-
coming to brunettes, and it is remarked
that they combine well with sunburnt straw
and black ostrich feathers; though no more
than three gardeniaS seem to be used at one
time, two on the outside of the hat and one
under the brim, which, if waved, may hold
the blossom straight in front, or else loosely
at the side back as if it were thrust in the
brim. With blue black yokes they are very
fetching And since the Duchess of Marl-
borough has already made them fashion
anle in England it doubtless won't be long
before they are the rage in New York.
At present they are rare-and CORE
spOndingly precious and desirable.
Other points on dress, gathered en- pas
SAINT, are that sporty girls are given to
cotton shirt-waistS with white pique col
lars and cuffs and that many fair cyclists,
who wish to be cool, are having blOuSes
made of ecru pongee. A whim for bicycle
skirts is to have the skirt button up one
side of the front, which enables the rider,
when on a lonely road, to whip off her pet
ticOat without lifting it over her head
which it seems rs very naughty-and so so
along unhampered in her little knckers.
Summer underwear and neglge's grow
more lovely day by day, and the dainty
figured batistes and dinitieS keep the lead
with materials
The dressing sacque shown is one of the
newest and most becoming models for this
garment, and is of yellow batiste en-

word more about the skirts of the
mohaiT street suits. They are made up en-
tirely without lining. A bias facing half
a yard deep, and an interlning OF bias
grasscloth the same width, finishes the bot
tom alone, and a trick of French dress
makers is to stretch both dress and facing
in putting them together This makes the
flare at che bottom even more marked and
gives the skirt a delightfully."- easy "set"A At
the cop of the facing there are three rows

the skirts will be left plain Others will
