Havana, August la.--tCopyrichted 1895

Of the missing military passenger train

irs.nnco OF tho audacity OF the tnsnr-
gents and the troubled state of AFFAIRS

del RIO for this city. and should have ar
rived here the same day. Tho train did
rot appear and the railway authorities
became alarmed and the m litary author
tiles were notified. Apparently, however,
the latter were very slow IN taking ac-
| ton IN the matter. In any case through
cut Monday the military authorities pro-
| fess-si absolute ignorance OF the where

caused the railway people 10 renrw

headquarters ard eventually several eN-

parties. consisting Of cavalry scouts re

1imities, piques, chambrey and polka
dotted linens and muslins- good old
fashioned sounding stuffs.
For instance, for a girl of eight, q
pink pique made with a jacket and skirt.
a white blouse waist of embroidery and
insertion. with wide sailor collar.
Pretty are the poke bonnets prepared
for little tots of from two to four. They
are made of delicate shades of dotted
swiss or gauze, with face trimmings of
lace or ribbon.
Grenadine has a good Old-fashioned
sound, but a figured grenadine costing
from four to seven dollars yard is not
exactly democratic simplicity, particu-
larly when made up, like one in purple
which ! have seen, over black silk
foundation. with full skirt, a waist in
soft folds of grenadine combined with
black chiffon. and with yoke and Cir
die of white and gilt passementerie.
The Persian patterns are particularly
suited for house gowns, purple and law
ender being prevailing shades. though
there are beautiful shaded green and
pink foundations with roses and green
leaves, fair showing through lace. A
typical teagown in Persian silk has a
ground work in white scattered with
delicate pink roses. The front is full,
the back has Vatican plat ending in
a demi-train. Wide cream lace finishes
the elbow sleeves and falls from the
shoulders quite to the waist.
A house gown as beautiful is made in
plincesse cut. the yoke of heavy ecr'I
passementerie, finished underneath with
wide lavender ribbon, which is car
ried over the shoulders and knots be-
hind in streamers which fall to the bot
tom of the train.
Persian again, and of course, are the
favorite waists of the season, say in
light and dark blues with butterfly
sleeves and yoke of white satin en-
broidered in silver and gold, their belts
narrow velvet straps. their buckles small
and gilded.
There is. too, a waist in green Persian
silk with coat tail effect. 1t has a full
soft front of light blue mousseline de
sole. and lined with light blue. and
there are dotted swiss waists made up
with white and black lace insertion, and
shirt waists of wash silk and swivel
silks, and grass linen shirt waists over
different colored silks, with blouse
fronts and stock ribbon collars, and
waists of amber chiffon whose sleeves
are SUGGESTIONS of puffs, and whose
white satin Jokes are set with tiny tur.
quoises and pearls.
1t is comfortable fashion which pro-
vides a waist with linen collar which
can be detached and substituted by q
stock ribbon collar with big bow,
which is very much softer and prettier.
Petticoats more elaborate than ever
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1896-04-24

are made to match the corstes of the
season. There are handsome ones Of
Persian silk trimmed with white lace,
and if white silk trimmed with irregu-
larly placed lace-edged tucked ruffles.
md there is-to pass from abstract to
concretion-this example, culled from
a June trousseau in preparation; the
material is a pink brocaded satin, scat
tered over with dark pink flowers. It's
vandyked with wide cream valencien-
hes lace. each point caught with ro-
settle of narrow pink ribbon. The ~or-
sets match, and their tops are gay with
lace and with the same pink ribbon.
Tailor gowns we have still with us.
and their materials are English chew
lots, plain, mixed and in small checks.
The checks are used for skirts with
plain dark jackets whose lapels are faced
with lighter goods harmonizing with
the skirts. The plain cheviots are made
with silk, invisibly buttoned, provided
with rolling collars and three pockets.
two hip pockets and one on the breastl
Who says that woman advanceth not?
A plain full skirt of taffeta silk, shad-
ing from tan to green, is the foundation
Of one tailor's model. The bodice is
draped with black chiffon embroidered
in ecru, the taffeta sleeves are full and
ruff of anticipated chiffon at the neck
is caught with rhinestone buckle in
front.
Another pretty model dress has
plain full skirt of cheviot in a small
green and white check. The short
jacket is of green cloth, whose revers
are faced with white moire. The jacket
is trimmed with tiny pearl buttons and
is worn over full blouse front effect
of white MORE silk.
There are many things to note.
There are hats. purple hats, with trim
mings of purp and yellow flowers.
There are odd hats of white satin,
covered with black horse netting, span
gled with rhinestones.
There are hats with brims entirely
covered with jonquils or with violets,
and hats with crowns of pink roses and
green leaves.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1896-04-24

There are toques and bonnets OF
rough purple straw with bedeckments
of violets.
There are ostrich feather bows for
spring wear in delicate shades of pearl.
gray and amber.
There are tan and blue Jackets,
trimmed with gilt braid outlining the
seams, pockets and lapels; or with fancy
braid laid on in scroll work or vertically.
There are new sleeves" on the gowns,
but yet odd sleeves on cloaks and wraps.
There are carriage parasols all roses.
brocade silk and chiffon and walking
parasols in scarcely less elaborate
makes.
There are gowns in grass linen by the
million. and in other open-work ma
terials which require an expensive
foundation.
There are hats, and those the most
common, which come low in front to
shade the face and which rise high over
the hair behind.
There are hats in purple Tuscan straw
with straight brims narrower behind
than in front; continental hats with
crowns of fancy lavender straw, green
hats with dropping brims overlaid with
white hyacinths and knotted green
