any one day. The parade will be en-
tirely non-partisan, comprising both

OTHER CAMPAIGN NOTES.
In an interview to-day William J..
Mills, chairman of the national demo-
cratic committee, said that the vote of
the national democracy will reach 20
900 In the state of Connecticut, and that
it will be much larger in New Haven
than some of the politicians of the 9TH
er parties have and idea.
Congressman N. d. Sperry said yes
terday: 'If I am to believe one half of
the reports 7 hear, and most of them
are accurate, the republican ticket will
have the largest plurality 1t has ever
had in the state.
From Washington I have received
inside advices that there can be no
doubt of the election of Mckinley"

STREET TOILET.

liberty may be safely enjoyed, but If much
fur is used or masses of it enter into the
scheme OF decoration it is absolutely essen
tial that it should be good.
Caracal maintains its popularity and is
quito as expensive as it was last year, the
secret of it's success lying in the fact of it's
being the only fur which does not increase
the apparent size of the figure. Caracal
is such short haired fur and SO much
more supple than astrakhan, which it
much resembles, that it can even be used
for tight fitting jacket without giving
its owner clumsy figure. The fur does
not answer SO well for the sleeves, which
look better when they are made Of black
plush or velvet. These pretty Elton jack
cts are lined with white satin and finished
off at the throat with ruche of black os-
trich feathers
Chinchilla is the fashionable fur of the
moment, and no woman who lives for
dress alone is content unless she has set
of it. 1t is very fragile and is becoming
only to fine complexion, like all clear
grays. Its return to fashion was sudden,
and it's decline will probably be equally
SO. For many seasons it has been entirely
ignored, and it is too short lived and del
icate to remain in vogue for any length of
time
The cut illustrates street gown of vio-
line wooden goods with black chenille
stripes. The godet skirt is of new shape,
the godets separating at the back and
turning toward the side. The bodice is
ornamented with bretelles of passemen-
terie of violine and steel. The collar,
which is cut in points, Is of violine velvet
bordered with fur and has valois collar
lined with violine satin. The collar Is
open in front and fastened to the bodice
by two steel buttons on each side. The
belt of violine velvet closes under steel
buckle at the back. The gigot sleeves
have velvet cuffs bordered with fur. A
hat of violine velvet, edged with fur and
trimmed with black plumes, accompanies
the gown. JUDO CHoLLET.

GoDET SKIRTS.

Judic Chollet Says, '.Never Use Cambria"
Silk the Best Lining.
The lining employed for skirts is of q
great deal more Importance than many
amateur dressmakers understand. The
best French modistes employ only faille
or taffeta, and although most women who
make their own gowns cannot afford to
pay $40 or $12 for skirt lining some Of
them have an old silk gown that they in
tend to convert into petticoat, but which
will do much better service as skirt lin

ability. Cambria is entirely unsatisfac-
tory and ought never to be used.
The lower edge of the skirt is not finally
made even and rounded until after the
haircloth has been put in place, as the
stiffening makes an alteration in the folds.
The length can only be determined by try
ing it on form of the proper dimensions
or on the person for whom it is intended.
In fitting the top Of skirt avoid, II

Before finally rounding the foot of the

godets unpinned, the edge at the back will
be found to be scalloped, but this Is neoes-

A RED CROSS KNIGHT.

The crimson glow OF srhlight falls
Along the monumental walls
Where still in faded pomp are read
The name and virtues of the dead.
Yet from yon efigy of knight
The craven name has vanished quite.
No word remains, but stories tell
That he who sleeps fought true and well; ;
In kindness swift, in vengeance slow,
A constant friend, courteous foe.
Vino partly fought for love of fight,
But chiefly for the love of right.
To Holy Land he rode away;
Seek thou holy land today.
With sword and battleax he strove:
Seek thou the armory of love.
He won on earth poor renown;
Win thou on earth loves fadeless crown.
