o1s Of The
Brtsec Wore.

Several weddings have been noted this
week. The one at Grace Church was ex-
ceedingly pretty. The bride wore stylish,
graceful gown, and her maids were very
attractive in the sheerest of white organdy
over glace silk, the necessary touch of color
being given by green satin ribbons which
encircled their waists. Their large hats
were becoming and picturesque. The
mother of the groom wore really charm.
ing CONNECTION which looked as though 1t
must have come from Paris direct. Other
frocks and bonnets worn on this occasion
were very fetching. 1t seems as though
many of our young people found it diff
cult to tear themselves away from the
City, for l have heard of an exceedingly
pretty little dinner given by one popular
maiden to a few friends, and several
luncheons passed off this week with great
eclat.
Many will return to town on the 18th of
this month so as to be present at the large
and brilliant golden wedding reception
which will be given by very popular fam
lily whose home is on Post street.

For many months past the most skilled
workers of embroidery in all Russia have
been hard at work embroidering in heavy
white satin the Tsarina's coronation robe.
1t was so enormously long that it had to
be worked in pieces At length it was
completed and reached the court dress
maker but on unrolling it they discovered
that all the silver employed had turned
quite black, the paper used for wrapping
having had some chemical which acted
upon the silver. As result up to the last
moment skilled fingers were kept busy
ompleting another train, which, however
did not by any means equal the first in
splendor.

A very acceptable writing-table has ap-
peared. and may be had in mahogany or
rosewood inlaid with sa;inwood. 1t is
arranged with a special place for loose
papers and has many convenient little ar
engagements.
For a bride has been ordered an unu-
sually handsome dressing-case. The tops
of all the bottles and the brushes and the
other articles are of absolutely plain
silver with gold monograms made of wire,
tortoiseshell taking the place of ivory for
the combs, paper-knives, etc.
All of the latest silver for our toilet.
tables are of the plain polished silver with
the gold wire crests or monograms.
Designs in tea baskets are novelty and
are said to combine all that is possible IN
the smallest possible space. I cannot de-
scribe them, not having as yet even seen a
picture of one.
Very lovely is a shade hexagonal in
shape, covered smoothly with pink silk
in which are applique lace flower sprays.
These are not put in methodically, but
according to the fancy of the designer,
and let me suggest that such work could
be easily done while away from home in
the country, and thus save many dollars
toward identifying the drawing room next
season. The most chic lamp shades 1
have ever seen are the production of a
friend of mine, who from tulle, mousseline
de sole or merely paper can evolve crea-
tons worthy OF place in any art room.
One was umbrella like in shape covered
with blush roses and their leaves, every
one of which she made; another, of white
lisse over green silk, recalled ballet girl s
skirt, the lisse being laid in the innumer-
able tiny pleats. MARCELLA.

Fawn cheviot is the material used in
the successful composition of this smart
dress. The vest is of petunia velvet, and
the inner one of creamy white cloth. The
Panama straw hat has two quilts at the left
side, and coquilles of white glace ribbon
edged with velvet. A tailor gown should
be owned by every woman, as nothing
intake it's place. 1t must be made by a
good tailor no matter how simple the
fabric. Such gowns cost from $50 to al
most any price one chooses to pay.
Great is the vogue being enjoyed by cam
vas dresses, and one | like, of fawn color,
has bolero bodice edged with black lace
and jet. The revers are of white satin
covered with fine applique of grass lawn.
The creamy white chine vest, with touches
of green, is yelled with a mousseline de
sole, on which is appliqued grass lawn.
The hat worn may be of dark shade of
brown trimmed with green and creamy
roses and tulle, or of green straw with
Marechal Neil buds and white tulle.
Many of US would like to own dear
little frock in pink, gray and white striped
silk. 1t has a lace jacket effect over
pinky gray silk bodice, which fastens with
handsome sapphire buttons surrounded
with diamonds. A slender, golden-haired
debutante is picture in this creation. a
new chameleon silk of blue and gray is
made decorative with fchu composed of
e1quisitely fine lawn and lace. The basque
is set into point and slash of turquoise
blue crepe encircles the waist. The sleeves
have merely short puffs at the top and are
embroidered in many colored straws to the
wrist. This straw embroidery is novelty
and | should not think very comfortable
adornment for long sleeves.

talented woman speakers in the Uni
ted States will be brought to Cali
fornia. These women and the many
excellent local speakers throughout
the State will be put upon the
Populist, Prohibition and Republican plat
forms. 1t will be a unique feature and will
attract immense crowds. The action OF
the Democratic Convention will decide
whether any of these celebrated women
shall be placed upon the Democratic plat
form for, of course, if it refuse TO indorse
the amendment, it could not allow the
contradiction of permitting a woman to
speak from its party plato in favor
of it.
Thus far in the campaign the suffragists
have conducted their work upon strictly
non partisan basis, not showing in the
slightest degree a preference for any one
OF the three parties who have so nobly
stood by them, but according equal honor
to all. 1t remains for the Democrats to
decide by their action next Tuesday
whether the suffragists will be forced into
certain degree of partisanship. AS they
most ardently desire that California shall
be the fourth State to enfranchise her
women, so they earnestly hope that the
Democratic will be the fourth party to ex-
tend the helping hand which will lead to
victory. We believe they will do it, and
with such support we cannot fail.

New Take d
oTaCy Lawn.

There is delightful frock of a new make
of grass lawn. 1t is a mixture of silk and
linen, and is lined with cherry colored silk.
The corsage is tucked, draping into a
cherry-hued silk waistband. The pointed
yoke is of grass lawn, which fastens at the
neck with choux of ribbon, and is finished
with sprightly ends of the cne-ry-silk lace
edged. The sleeves are so cut and made to
show the outlines of the arm and fall into
frilis over the hand. The large chapeau is
in creamy lace, and black ostrich plumes
wave over the side. The Ioveliest of roses
peep from beneath the brim.

in the light of the new era for womankind,
could expunge that word "male" and
place both men and women upon the
broad basis of their original Magma Charta,
there is no doubt that they would do it;
but it is too late. This question OF justice
and liberty for women must be acted upon
by the whole body of voters Go into the
slums OF our cities, go where you will,
among the ignorant, the degraded, the
drunken, the vicious, there you find the
men who will sit in judgment upon the
question of political freedom for the
women of California. And not one woman
in all this great State can go to the ballot
box and place therein the expression of
her own desire in this matter. This con-
dition of affairs should appeal in the
strongest manner to the honest, inteli-
gent, fair-minded men of the State. If
they allow prejudice, conservatism or in
difference to influence them to vote against
the acknowledgements of women. by so
much they ally themselves with that
lower class which will not fail to vote in
opposition. Our fate rests entirely In the
hands of the so-calIed better element of
the voters. II they fail US our cause is
lost.
This brings US back to the question of
the Democratic convention. The condi-
tons are not exactly the same as at the

action. Since the opening of the cam
paign not one word has been said ON the
suffrage platform in condemnation of any
kind of business, no special reforms have
been advocated, no threats or promises
made as to what women will do when they
get the ballot. Yet the persons engaged
in certain occupations have organized an
anti-suffrage organization, raised large
sum of money, and prepared for a bitter
fight against the eleventh amendment

PROFITABLE INVESTMENT.
Popular Loan to the Government
Money Can Earn Seven Per Cent.

PopuIar Loan to the Government
Money Can Earn Seven Per Cent.
In the news dispatches yesterday it
was announced that the Government
had placed on the market loan that
ought to be and will be eagerly taken
by the people. It is the very best op-
portunity ever offered for the poor man
to invest his savings. It is an absolute
ly safe loan and one that cannot fail
to address the business sense of every
man favorably. In one light 1t is OPP
portunity for manifestation of patri-
etic spirit, since it is always desirable
that the people Of nation should be
it's chief creditors.
In our editorial columns this morning
the loan is explained and its adyan-
tages set forth. We are authorized to
state also that the National Bank of
D. O. Mills (and probably other or pure
ly State banks will do the same) will
serve the people by making the neces-
sary subscriptions for all who desire
to invest, and transact all the details
of securing the investments for those
who desire them.
AS the bonds are thirty year coin
issues at per cent, payable quarterly,
and as they are exempt from taxation,
and as taxes here represent per cent,
the taking of the loan really gives the
investor a compounding advantage,
and a return of Z per cent. upon his
money, while the bonds will serve pre-
cisely the same purpose that the money
would, in the prosecution Of industries
and improvements, as they constitute
the best possible basis Of solvency.

Pedro Sa1gado and B. Garcia were
arraigned in the Police Court yesterday
for disturbing the peace at the Clunie
Opera-house.
J. H. Todd, the Manager, told them
they could not go in because they were
drunk, but they managed to buy tickets.
The special officer told them to go out.
An altercation ensued, but the men
went away without making any further
attempt to get in
They were fined 81 so each, with the
usual alternative.
Hugh Ward and J. Brennan also
raised a row when refused admittance,
and the latter aggravated his offense
by drawing a knife on officer Fisher, for
which the officer promptly knocked him
down. They were also fined ST 90 each,
with the alternative of seven and half
days in Jail, the court evidently think
ing that the knife episode had been
squared by the beautifully frescoed or
nament to his eye that Brennan exhib-
tied, reminding one of a heavy thunder

There is a great difference in men and women in their methods of buying shoes. This, says Shoe and Leather Facts, is the opinion of retailer who handles footwear for both sexes. The additional time given to suiting the fair sex is by no means lost. If a woman is satisfactorily suited she is apt to be a mora valuable and permanent patron than man. She often talks about her footwear to her friends, whereas a man seldom does
