colored velvet had fancy Elton iacket of
hunters green velvet, and tan colored
one had a bolero Of seal colored velvet,
with gold braid sewed on it, These were
for ceremonious visiting dresses.
The handsomest gown that I have
seen recently was Of rich black eudora
cloth. The skirt was cut in very MANY
gores and down each seam was a very
narrow row of jet passementerie This
was sewed on so as to give a rather stiff
raised appearance. There was a short
basque jacket lined with white satin and
having white satin vest worked with let
beads and embroidery. The stock collar
was done in tho same way and the deep
cuffs to the sleeves.
Large sleeves hold their own in spite Of
every effort to reduce them to reasonable
dimensions, but as they are so becoming
none need complain. I noticed a couple
OF new effects on two very pretty negli-
gees. One had series of three puffs, and
tne other was shaped like an ordinary leg
o mutton, with deep plait taken in on
the outside Of the elbow. The first named
OF these negligees was of baby blue Japa-
nese Grape, made in the form of loose
sack. At the neck there was turn
down collar Of lace and below that wide
fchu of Grape, bordered with double
ruff1e of lace. The lace fell in cascades
down the 'front.' and lace falls were set on
the sleeves. The garment was very grace
full and dainty. The second was of figured
china silk in white and garnet. It fitted
closely, though the wide plat of the silk,
bordered with cascade Of lace on each
side in front, gave 1t the appearance Of be.
ing half fitting. OLIVE HARPER.

Manager Plank uiyss out some o. the plans
FOR the Hot Springs.

The Las Vegas hot springs are 10 be
made into a health as well as a pleasure
resort. Tho co operation OF some OF the
most eminent physicians In the country
has been secured, and 10 expense will be
spared to make the springs a health aud
pleasure resort for hundreds Of people all
the year round, and incidentally Las We
gas and New Mexico are to be advertised
as never before. DR.. William Curtis
Baily, an eminent eastern ply %siciap, viii
be the medical superintendent, with Drs.
Upton, Marron and Atkins as associate
counselors and operators, which will give
the springs a medical standing never be.
fore enjoyed. DIR. Baily has an advisory
board Of over thirty Of the most scientific
physicians in the large eastern cities, and
bis movements will be governed by the en-
tire board.
The springs will be kept free from pa
tients who are in the second, or ~incurable
degree of tuberculosis, and the sanitary
aud health conditions viii be made per.
feet. y,
The two red cottages on the park will bs
converted into an up.to.date hospital. A
new plunge bath will be put in, trained
nurses will be employed, and the Atchisou
will run, when required, a modern invalid
car or train, with nurses and attic ndants
on board. The hotel will be run, as here
%tofore, with all the resort features, music
dancing, etc. The Montezuma will open in
in July, and it is to be hoped will remain
in operation.
There is another big scheme on foot, and
with the backing that is said to
be- had for it, it should work out
in the near future and IL is to improve the
! Ben Butler estate in connection with thu
hot springs as the headquarters and open
| this immense track of land OF 800 ,0O(
| acres to health seekers and put buildings
and other advantages upon it to make |
| enjoyable and attractive. In any event
| the hot springs and improvements which
represent an outlay of ST. 300, 900 with the
| Atchison system and the eminent medical
profession to back it will, it is hoped, be-
come one of the largest health and pleas
ure resorts In the country. Supt. Baily
sails for Europe, this month, to better pre-
pare himself with modern methods oil
treatment. This is his sixth trip across
the Atlantic for this purpose.

To the present holders OF that champion
ship belt, THE OPTIc would say, "Just
watch our dust!" While IL has been
rather uphill work, The OpTic has at
last succeeded in awakening the desired
enthusiasm, and East Las Vegas will be
represented by a running team at the
iremen's' tournament, at Albuquerque, on
July end, Ord and 4th, and the Toys have
business 10 their eyes.
At the called meeting Of the department,
last evening, 1t was definitely decided fol
the team to Immediately get down to &C.
tive training, and get in the best shape
/ possible in the short time now left them
| While the nance part Of the question hal
not been settled, yet sufficient money hal
been raised in the field already covered
to, guarantee the necessary amount, wher
an active canvass is made.
While the time for training Is rather
short, it is the belief of the runners thai
they will be enabled to put up a splendid
race for the prizes and II any team wins
| over them, it will be because OF an ac'
cident, or they will do some extremel!
tall running. With seven 10 to 10y
second men in the swing, East Las Vegas
will have a team, Albuquerque will havet'
look at twice to see them pass.
Members of the running team are caller
to meet on the Lincoln avenue track, al
9 O'Clock, this evening, prepared to trot.

The IrrepressIbIe "coant.,

The Citizen Of yesterday states that
James Morton had received word from
fatigue t, the effect that the two opposing
forces of the Brazilian count and E. A.
Dow met at about $3.50 o'clock, Saturday
evening. and that a regular pitched battle
took place, more than 400 shots beirg ex-
changed between the two factions, and
that one OF the counts lieutenants, a des
perate character, had received a fatal
shot. Just as the count and his two re-
naming men were retreating towards an
arroyo, where they could shield them selves
from bullets, the horse ridden by. the
Brazilian was shot from under him and he
escaped on foot towards the mountains,
while the two men in the arroyo dis
appeared as soon as possible after they
discovered the plight Of their leader.
The OPTIc's only comment on the
Count is, that about twenty five men
should get together and kick the imposter
beyond the border Of New Mexico. sen 10
