Canncy was Not matched.

Tom Carney. the clever featherweig5t
boxer of this city, denies that he was
matched to fight six rounds before the
Bohemian Club on Monday night. He
says the only intimation that he had
was what he saw in the papers. and that
the club used his name as a drawing card
without any authority. Gaffney says
he will meet his supposed opponent of
Monday night at any time to make a
match.

Lace or black, or some other dark vel
vet ribbons of some description, are con-
sidered indispensable additions to the
class of dressy gowns now dictated by
fashion. The very newest ribbons have
edges of jet or lace.
Black silk crepe-lisse ribbon is another
novel variety largely used to veil trim
mings Of a brilliant hue. There are like
wise expensive hand-painted and gauze
ribbons, with a fringe or lace edges. The
ribbon wsavers have never turned out
such a variety as the present product of
their looms.
The turn Of fashions wheel has brought
about extraordinary changes in ribbons.
Some Newport women have thought of
a way to keep the pack hair below the
coil in order. They use brooches for the
purpose. and the effect is pleasing. Usu-
ally these pins are of gold, wreath-shaped
and pearl-set. / only saw them with
dressy gowns and picture hats, and think
they are not liked for ordinary toilet.
Many Of them were worn at church.
Every engaged man should see to it
that his adored one possesses a specimen
or two of these pears-set. gold-wreath
pins. They are lovely for securing rib
bons and laces, aside from their new use
in hair ornamentation.
Shaded silk waists Fl blu and green,
On blue and brown and pale yel4owish
greens ere very chdc. and with the addi-
ton Of linen cuffs and collars make q
very servfceable bodice to tide over the
change of seasons.
