mousquetaire sleeves are arranged over

striped etamlne being stylishly draped
at the shoulder. Lace frills fall from
the wrists over the hands. The fash

Mrs. Fairchild left San Francisco and
arrived here, en- route to her home
further east. The gentleman followed
her here and insisted on having Sc
tnces every day in the morning. HIS
game was DR.. Stevens, his fair lady's
aame Emma.
At one of the seances he attended
Miss Emma materialiZed and consent
I'd 10 a spirit marriage. DR.. Stevens
accordingly made preparations by buy
ing flowers. and asked Mrs. Fairchild
20 provide a couple of witnesses. Mrs.
Fairchild wrote DR.. and Mrs. Slossen
20 call at II o'clock a. m. Wednesday.
No other invitations were issued, and
the only ones present were DR.. Stev-
sns, DR.. and Mrs. Slossen, Mrs. Fair
child and her eldest son, who acted
rs master of ceremonies.
DR.. Stevens seated himself short
distance in front of the cabinet, and
DR.. and Mrs. Slossen were seated near
him, facing the cabinet. Young Mr..
Fairchild also sat near. Mrs. Fair
child, as usual, wound the music box
md stood herself in the room, outside
the cabinet, walking back and forth
oy us. The day was beautiful, and the
sun shone brightly in through the lace
curtains of the room. Every move
made was plainly visible. They waited
but a moment, when, with a noiseless
Tread, a gentleman, dressed la mode,
stepped out of the cabinet. There was
.aothing ghostlike or uncommon in his
dress OF manner.
Mrs. Fairchild announced the gentle
man as Dr. Rush, the former dean OF
che Medical University of Pennsyl-
wanna. He soon began to address DR.
Stevens on the appropriate subject oil
marriage. He must have talked five
minutes at least before he turned tc

The ceremony was brief, bit impressiV
and as soon as the benedictlon wa
pronounced the company waited FOR al

wealthy Australian physician, and his
Bhostly bride was his sweetheart of
sorty years ago. There is an uncanny
aavor about the tale of marriage of
The living and dead. Here is the story
TWO eye-witnesses tell:
To w. r. Hearst, New York Journal:
Mrs. Helen Fairchild came here and
held series of seances at No. $40 West
Eighth street. After attending several
seances, she told me that some impor-
liant event would happen soon, and she
would invite me and the doctor. She
said a physician from Australia met
her in San Francisco and attended sew
sral OF her seances, at which a beau
tiful spirit always materialized, in
whom she recognized a former lady
friend in England. They had been
engaged to be married, but she died
before the marriage could be cele-
brated.

T. P. is young woman who enjoys
the best of health, but she is often
asked if she is i'll because her eyes
look heavy and there are shadows be-
meath them. So much is said about
this that she is somewhat disturbed,
and asks if there is any remedy for
this appearance. Answer: II one
habitually has such shadows under the
eyes it indicates nothing, and should
excite no comment. Some persons
have these shadows all their lives.
Under such circumstances there Is no
remedy. If they come from ill-health
a tonic is sometimes beneficial.

Notaa About China Ware.

Vases, fern dishes and table center
pieces of ruby glass, with gilt orna-
mentation, are attractive features in
Bohemian glassware.
For the center of the table the round
or oval mirror is now supported by
a raised stand of old silver, which
rests on delicately wrought claws,
holding a crystal ball.
The newest dinner sets are marvels
of beauty, both in decoration and
shapes. Green-brilliant grass green
with heavy relief of gold, seems to be
the favorite color, while the shapes are
decidedly low and irregular in out
line.
There is a revival Of the beautiful
Minton ware, and bouillon cups, game
sets and pate cups are reproduced in
all the exquisite shades and designs.
Mounted in gold and decorated with
medallions, they greatly resemble the
famous Sevres ware.
A novelty in cut glass is mammoth
cigar jar, in shape resembling a pickle
jar, but with the distinguishing fea-
ture of large hollow space in the cut
ssopper in which a moist sponge is
placed to keep the fragrant Havanas in
just the proper condition.
A novel ornament for the drawing
room is hanging flower jardiniere.

mosquito. AS the reader will naturally
infer from the numerous times we have
referred to the "bite" of the tsetse, its
poison is not inserted by sting but
always by the proboscis, which con-
sists of lancet, well protected by two
external shields. Horses, cattle and
dogs bitten by the tsetse soon show
symptoms of brain disorders which ter

an hour to ten days.-St. Louis Repub-

With SIashed Bolero.

A charming model illustrated here,
embraces the latest novelty in bolero
Jacket and full belted bodice. Glace
silk was selected for the costume. The
ground is of vivid green, showing
stripes Of deep red, or rather beet
root"-a color very much in evidence
for the coming season. The bolero OF
velvet, in the same rich tone, cut In
deep slashes, reveals glimpses Of the
bright hued silk beneath. The fan
ciful tabs falling over the sleeves are
a continuation of the jacket, which is
outlined with applique and narrow
edging of cream lace. A crush belt,
of the usual depth in front. encircles
the waist, but gradually widens toward
the center of back where it closes be-
tween tucked shirred edges and ex-
tends above the waist line. A stand"
ing collar is concealed by crush stock
of silk with a fiaring collar of velvet

the British force during the Ashanti

numerous roundheaded nails. The
footstool is of barbaric design and the

adorned with curious device.-Ex-

leaving the lower part free, and thus
affording an occasional glimpse Of the
or street v$r when made in cloth or
bright-hued lining. The cape Is ap-
propriately adapted for demi-season
whipcord and finished with machine
stitching; the garment can also be
utilized for more dressy occasions in
velvet, satin or seal plush, decorated
with narrow. jetted bands. A cloth
cape, with minis and jet decorations,
is decidedly effective.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

New York, July 1.-The stock mar
ket to-day was fairly active for half
holiday. considering the recent average
records of business and strong tone
prevailed. The local dealers took their
cue from higher London prices and
worked for a higher range and with
considerable covering demand decided
improvements occurred.
The Changers were helped by the
favorable character of the monthly
government crop report and the mar
ket generally reflected relief over the
failure of rumors Of prospective large
gold exports to mateTialize thus far.
The opening was strong and higher,
with fractional improvements general
~ and a degree Of buoyancy soon be-
came apparent, particularly in the
specialties.
An engagement Of 100000 in gold
for shipment to go TO Germany, part
to-day and part ON Tuesday, came as
a decided surprise to the Street and
induced some selling on the theory
that the engagement foreshadowed re-
vived special" exports of the metal
on a large scale. The assurance re-
ceiyed from prominent gold exporting
houses that they had no gold orders,
together with assured sentiment re-
garding the political outlook, caused
an active and strong market toward
the close.
Railway bonds were dull to-day and
lacked feature, aside from a general
rise in tone.
