NELvETEEN IS POPULAR.
Velveteen, which formerly was such
q despised material, and which has
figured az such SO largely in novels
and tales, is now woven with glossi

desirable for handsome gowns. The
richest weaves have ribs, stripes and
various patterns with figures of dots,
stars, Vandykc and electric lines, and
those of bright contrasting colors with
the plain or moire grounds. The lat.

AMUSEMENT OF QUEENS OLD AGE.
To the Princess belongs the credit OF
reviving in the breast of her mother
the long dormant taste for theatrical
entertainments. In her youth Queen
Victoria was frequently, throughout
the London season. to be seen at the
various theatres with her young hus-
band. and for the first fifteen wears
that followed her marriage hardly
missed single important operate
event III the metropolis, showing not
only keen and intelligent apprecia-
tion Of both music and drama, but also
very kindly feeling toward the ar-
lists. After the death Of the Prince
Consorr, IL 1861, the Queen declined
to hear any longer Of anything con.
nected with the stage, and it was only
with the utmost difficulty that some
ten years ago the Princess was able to
induce her mother to permit the or
ganiHatioE OF some tableaux-vivans AT
Osborne. This had the effect Of paw
ing the way to amateur theatricals, OF
which the Princess, notwithstanding
her strongly developed embonpoint,
is Unfortunately fond; AMI from ANA
teur theatricals to performances given
by professI onals was but another step.
Now, the Queen has again taken such
q liking to the drama that she actually
goes to the enormous expense Of hav-
ing entire metropolitan troupes and
their scenery conveyed all the way
from London to Balmoral. a twenty.
four hours journey. III order to pro-
vide her with an evenings entertain

Princess Beatrice il at far from look

fat sister, Princess Christian. Her
face usually wears troubled express

people who know her to the difficulty
which she experiences in keeping mat.

BRUSSELS. Oct. Z. 1Ss5.-Two heavily
laden passenger trains came into col
lision between Wavre and Ottignies,
about eighteen miles from this city, last
evening, and most of the cars of both
trains were wrecked. Ten persons were
killed outright and forty were injured,
some OF them fatally. Among the pas
sengers Were M. Beernaert, President
of the Chamber of Deputies; his wife
and her sister, Madame Moulen. The
latter was killed and Madame B%eernaert
injured. though not seriously. M.
Beernaert wa unhurt.
Later news from the scene of the rail-
way accident shows that the disaster
was a great deal more serious than the
first reports Indicated. 1t is now ascer-
tanned that eighteen persons were killed
and at least a hundred injured. The list
of fatally wounded is also likely to be
increased, as at least twenty-five of the
injured are dangerously hurt. The col
lision was not between two passenger
trains, as at first reported, but between
a passenger train and a reigh tran.
The engine of the freight train struck
the passenger cars, two or which were
provided with men These
ears were telescoped and a third was
thrown on top of them. A rascuing
party worked throughout the night taxi
ing out the dead and injured from the
debris.

CAPE MAYS EMPTY HONOR.
Only a Sheriff and One A ssembIyman
to BE Elected.
Special to the Jersey City Meas


CAPE MAY, oct. Z, 1ss5.-Mayor
Thomas E. Ludlam, of Sea Isle City, has
called the Democratic County Conven-
ton for Tuesday, October 2. There will
be only an Assemblyman and a Sheriff
elected this fan. For the Assembly it is
a foregone conclusion that Furman Lud-
lam will be renominated by the Repub-
leans because he carried the county by
800 majority last year On the Demo-
cratic side no one seems to want the
empty honor. 1t will probably fall to
Mayor Frank Smith, of Holly Beach, or
to Otis Madden, of Tuckahoe.
On the Republican side the principal
candidates for Sheriff are ex-Postmaster
Furman L. Richardson, ex-Freeholder
John w. Reeves, of West Cape May;
Andrew J. Tomlin, of Middle Township;
J. LUNG Willis. of the same township,
and John w. Grandy, of Upper Town
ship. Every indication a week ago
pointed to the nomination of Willis, but
leaders now say that Richardson has
the best chance.
Of the Democrats David Rodan. of
Cape May City. will probably be rejected
in favor of Alvin Hildredth, a member
Of fhe new Democratic State Committee,
and formerly State Riparian Commits
sfOner.

AN IRON BOUND AGREEMENT.
Mayor WaRser's Draft to the East
Iersex Nater ComnanY.

Mayor Wanser today forwarded to
Mr.. W. H. Corbin. counsel for the East
Jersey Water Company, a rough draft
of the form of contract he wishes the
company to sign in entering into the
agreement to give the city a temporary
supply of water.
The contract is an iron bound one and
has been prepared by gentlemen skilled
in the business. The city's interests
have been amply protected.
The Mayors only fear is that the com
pany will not consent to sign an agree
ment that is so rigid.
Mr.. Corbin has given the document to
Mr.. McDevitt. the company's representa-
tive. and he in turn is to put it before
the company officials. If the company
consents to sign the agreement without
any change the Mayor will make the
form public. He expresses it as his be-
lief that no one will nave cause to COM
plain thai the city's interests are not
nroperly protected.
