airiness and grace distinguish tho finest
fans and the colors are soft and unob-
trusive. Fan chains Of gold, with dia-
monds or pearls at intervals, are now
made. They are rather heavy and add
much to the effect of the fan itself.
The daintiest fans arc made Of lace
stretched over silk muslin on mother of
pearl or tortoise shell sticks and painted in
the center after the manner Of the French
school. Glitter seems to be the special
feature Of many, and spangles are con-
spicu6us part of the decoration. Brown
fans, which resemble bulrush when closed
and are made Of brown gauzc, painted with
fascinating little figures, are special nov
elites.
Parasols have rather long handles Of
laoquered wood matching the color of the
silk or OF natural wood with some sort Of
metallic addition, like q gold band or a
tiny serpent. Sometimes small spray Of
flowers or fruit forms the decoration,
made in the colors of life. The French are
adopts at making this sort Of ornamental
ton, which is usually much more durable
than one would anticipate. There are also
handles of tortoise shell studded with
jewels.
A sketch is given Of q costume Of white
mohair. The lower part Of the skirt Is en-
circled by four narrow bias bands of mauve
taffeta, and the tablier is framed by two
tapering panels Of the same material The
close bodice has bias stretched back and
opens in front over ohemisette of white
mousseline de sole. Bias bands Of mauve
taffeta trim the bodice and edge the high
fiaring collar. The corselet belt is Of mauve
taffeta and has two erect coques In front.
The close sleeve extends over the band in
medieval style, terminating in q frill Of
lace, and has full puff at the top.

TULLE GOWN.

accessories and the immense vogue Of
lawns muslius and thin silks have con-
tributed to the general effect of refined
simplicity and Responsiveness. Neverthe-
less the bills amount to Just as much as
ever, for there are silk Innings and hand
work to be counted in, and fashionable
muslin frock, little elaborate as it may
seem to the ignorant eye, costs as much as
q more pretentious ono. There are cases
where careful examination shows some
foundation for large charge, the best of
Innings and workmanship being employed,
but when one sees gown of printed main
sock made over lining Of common color
ed cambria, the edges Of the lounces not
even hemmed, and learns that the cost Of
this costume is in the neighborhood of $50
one naturally wonders as to the why and
wherefore.
1t is said by fashion mongers that shoes,
hosiery and underwear are characterized
by particular daintiness this year, but was
there ever time when woman did not
have these things as fine and delicate as
her circumstances would allowP The con-
seriousness that ones less conspicuous ap.
purtenances are on par with or above
ones gown and hat give feeling Of COM
fort and satisfaction that no mere outside
flnery can hnpart.
The gown Of which sketch ia given has
q skirt composed Of two deep f1ounces Of
maize embroidered tulle, over which are
panels of silk with printed warp design.
This skirt Is made over plain skirt Of
maize silk The bodice Of gathered en-
brodered tullc has plain silk lining and
is adorned with lengthwise bands of print
cd silk The close sleeves are of elbow
length and are adorned on the outside by
three ruflles of embroidered tulle. Tho
belt, collar and straps are of black velvet.

CAMDEN, N. j., Sept. 10.-W. o. Hale, Of
All Benson street, was showing revolver
to his vito last night when the weapon
was accidentally discharged, the ball en-
tering her neck and, taking downward
course, penetrated the lungs. Overcome
with remorse he shot himself in the right
temple, the ball ripping open the scalp for
several Inches, but failing to penetrate the
skull. Going to the window he called for
help, and an officer arrived to find him
bending over the woman, holding her in
his arms. The wounded man and woman
were taken to the Cooper hospital, where
the womans injuries were found to be
fatal. An officer was stationed to watch
him. In conversation with Chief of Police
Dodd Mrs Hale stated that she and her
husband had no quarrel, and she believed
the shooting to be accidental.
