dress yoke being of the same fabric.
The standing collars of both cape and
dress are covered with black mousse
line dc sole. The dress buttons invisi-
extends as far as the waist and forms
a funnel fold from there down.
There is no denying that this cape
lends very dressy finish, and 1t Is so
small protection that it will be worn
very little In midwinter months, but
cape types that afford about rs much

lures are very abundant and are worn

"theater cape" seems now to hide u
multitude of lacks in an outside gar

against the weather doesn't count, de-
spite the fact that most women go to
the theater of winter evenings. When
asked il her hands and arms don't be-

their notions. a woman should take lots
of time. She should go to the womens
dressing room, there to have her FUR
overshoes put on, to look at the set OF
her curls and the powder on her nose,

A Witty PRIEST

The death of Father Healy, of Bray,
removes from Irish life the wittiest
Irishman of his time. Even In London
he was all but lionized in society, and
the shoal of invitations which always
followed his visits had generally the
effect of shortening his sojourn. He
was well known to every public man
Of both parties, and Lord Salisbury
We'd with Mr.. Gladstone and Mr.. Nor
ley with Mr.. Balfour in appreciation
Of his wonderful fund of humor.

"Well, I'll tell you this" was the re.
Spouse, "if they only hated the devil
half as much as they hate you there
would be no necessity for us priests in
the country" Even on his deathbeH
his humor did not desert him. A few
hours before his death one of his medf.
cal attendants had occasion to ask him
a question I'm reference to his breathing.
"Are you distressed fatherr was the
question. mot at all, DOCTOR" said the
dying wit; ''but on the contrary, lots

The death Of a second pugilist in the
ring, or from injuries received therein,
ought to strengthen somewhat the SEN
timent against that brutal institution.
1t has often been regretted in a saw
agely humorous way that the contest
ants in such fight did not kill each
other instead of only pounding each
other out OF all semblance to humanity,
but even IL such wish had ever been
expressed seriously 1t would only be
half complied with by the killing of one
OF the combatants. A trial or two for
manslaughter, followed by conviction
and sentence, might bring the pugilis-
tic fraternity to realizing sense of
what it is they are doing when they set
two men up in a ring to take the chance
of killing one another.

just how dainty 1t Is made up to tempt
a woman to endure chilled hand and
arms, examine the next illustration.
Here 1t Is black velvet, laid in deep
pleats in back and over the shoulders,
and sewed to deep yoke heavily EN-.
broidered with jet, which Is finished
with ostrich feather gallOon and n
feather fringe in place of the usual fur.
The collar is also edged with ga]loon,
and the whole garment is lined with
pink watered satin. With this there Is
worn toque of velvet trimmed with
chiffon wings and velvet loops, tcgeth-
err with spray of wild roses which
lies on the hair in back.
The final example of these capcs Is
black velours and trimmed down the
front with jet galloOn. 1t has, besides,
an ornate jet yoke. The fancy collar
and the edges of fronts and hem are
bordered with ostrich feather galloon.
AS has been said, the velvet coats and
capes are plentiful and the exquisites
are already trying to distinguish theirs
from those of the common herd. One
method of doing this responds to the
mad craze for cutting up expensive
stuffs. Thus, magnificent velvet cloak
was enriched lavishly with strips of
camels hair goods. Evidently whole
shawl had been cut into strips, straight,
curved and zigzag ones, all to trim a
cloak already rich by itself. OF course,
il the shawl was old and notify, there
was good excuse, but the woman who
would think of cutting up any sort Of a
camel's hair shawl is just the kind of
woman who would select good one
for the sacrifice.
Another trick for ornamenting velvet
is by OVERLAPPING it with steel, and this
is sometimes carried out to barbaric
degree of splendor. An especially ele-
CANT one seen on fine dowager was
so plastered over with great plates of
jet. steel and goodness knows what all,

Officials of railroads at Chicago de-
clare that it will be utterly impossible
TO maintain through grain rates so long
as trunk lines persist in billing to ficti-
tious destinations. 1t Is notorious
fact that nearly all the trunk lines make
practice of billing grain to some into
rior point taking n higher than sea-
board rate, and changing the billing in
transit to suit themselves. This manip-
ulation gives trunk lines 3 to cents a
hundred to buy business with, as the
excess rate is deducted from the
through rate before division.
