be to blue-eyed woman.
When a particular fancy for the Spanish
scarf is developed the gown or gowns with
which 1t is to be worn may be effectively
trimmed with Spanish lace in order to secure
a still greater appearance of harmony. One
custume which was devised with this intention
was Of. pale lilac crepe de chine. 1t was cut
princess fashion and trimmed with bits
of amethyst. embroidery and deep founces of
black Spanish lace. The decolletage was
deeply bordered with the lace and the sleeves
were succession OF lace fiounces. The effect
was charming and suggestive of numberess
pretty variations Of the idea which may come
into being when the Spanish lace fad becomes
yet more thoroughly established.

FAMOUS CoTILLIoN DINNER,

am ~ CO41LL1ON.r DINNER
The Bradley Martins have always
been famous for their entertainments.
In February, 1890, they startled New
YORK society by giving what was at
the time universally agreed to be the
most gorgeous private entertainment
ever known on this side Of the Attain
tic.
The invitations were sent Que early 2
In January. Three hundred favored
people found that the pleasure of their
company had been asked by Mr.. and
Mrs. Bradley Martin at a "cotillion
dinner" at Delmonico's. What is a.
''cotlllion dinner?" everybody asked ev-st
erybody else. Nobody could answer
The secret was well kept When the
guests arrived at Delmonico's at a.
o'clock on the eighth Of February thew
were dumfounded and delighted.
The hallway was mass of rare flow
ers and rare tapestry. Mr. and Mrs.
B1adley Martin stood at the doorway
OF the red drawing rooms and well
coined each guest. Dinner was served
In the ballroom, the walls Of which,
were hidden behind pale blue satin
damasSE> with frieZe Of pale blue
gauze, touched with gold embroidery
Roses, orchids and lilies Of the vallevE
beW1Idered the eyes and delighted the
senses. Dinner was announced by
trumpeters and could not have been

lars. 1t was o'clock before belmont
cos was empty again, and Mr.. and
MRS Martin had earned the distinction
or having entertained New York So
clety royalty, jOyOUsly and continuous
ly for eight magic hours. -
OF course, this was a mere bagatelles9
to the coming browning glory in the -
social career of the Bradley Martins. 4
All told, the affair could not have coshy1

apartments on the second floor.
Mr.. Boldt's bill alone will be for rent
OF rooms, $3,250; for suppers $18 900: for
hfty servants costumes, including
trumpeters, 81, 500, a total of S22, $50.
Three orcnestras will cost 81 ,000
The floral decorations, which will be
more magnificent than any ever before
seen in New York, will cost $4,000.
This sees" the $4,000 spent by ex-Mrs.
vanderbilt and goes it $4,000 better
The cotillion favors will also make a
record for themselves. They will cast
$4,000. AT this figure an average Of $40
worth Of presents will be given to each
guest.
The numerous sundries, such as the
cost Of engraving and sending out in
V1tations. and such incidentaIs as fees
and perquisites, together with the ex-
pense of costumes for the various mem
bers OF the Bradley Martin family, will
easily raise the total of the expenses on
the side of the host and hostess to
100000.
AS it is safe to say that the average
cost of guests costumes will exceed
those of the Vanderbilt guests, you
might estimate $200, 900 as the amount
which will be laid out by the invited
on modistes,- costumers. taiIors, shoe
makers, hairdressers, florists, perfunl-
ers, walters and livery stable keepers.

Onhclals Making Ready to Observe the Suns
Total Eclipse In 1900


The United States government is al
ready preparing to take observations
of the total eclipse of the sun, which is
to take place on May %, 1900, says the
Atlanta Constitution.
Observation stations will be estab-
lished along the path of the total
eclipse and experienced astronomers
in the service of the government will
be sent down to take observations and
make the astronomical calculations
which 1t is expected will be SO valuable
to science and to astronomy.
1t may seem rather early to begin to
take observations now for an event
that will not occur within the next three
years, but the government will begin
to take observations May 10th, and con-
tinue until the same date in the month
of June.
These observations will be for the
purpose of determining the best points
at which to establish permanent sta
tions, where the final observations will
be taken during the eclipse of 1900.
The path of the total eclipse will ex-
tend In IL direct line from New Or
leans to Norfolk, virginia, and will pass
through Georgia in the locality of Ma
con.
Blank report sheets have been sent TO
all the weather bureaus in the vlcini-
ty of the path of the eclipse with the
instruction to the weather man to Sc
cure the services of capable and intel
ligent men TO make the observations
and register the results in the sheets
made for the purpose. The exact con-
dition of the sky, of the sun and of the
whole heavens will be marked down in
the sheets every morning of the month
when the observations are being TAX
en-, and all of the sheets when filed
out will be sent to Washington and
carefully graded. The permanent OBJ
servatlon stations will be established
at the points where the first observa-
tions taken receive the highest percent

here given Is from
the experience of Mr.. Keith Anstruther
Of Michigan and the Messrs. Macgregor
& Co. of Rangoon, gentlemen who con-
duct great numbering interests IN
Northern Siam. Asia, and who use from
100 to $50 elephants in their operations.
The pictures that illustrate the article
are from photographs lent by these
gentlemen.
To all intents and purposes. the
working elephants of Burmah, Slam
and India are trained laborers Of en-
ormous strength, and frequently poss-
ess more intelligence than their ma
houts, or so-called drivers.
The initial picture shows an Gle
phant rolling huge log through the
forest with his head and tusks. When
. 1fs1ring is reached the great brute
will be harnessed to the log, and will
drag 1t down to the river. Great rats
OF teak logs are floated down to Moul-
mein and Rangoon. where they are re-
ceived and dealt with by other ele-
plants. the mere recital of whose daily
labors would cause the uninformed to
gasp with incredulity.
When the trimmed and branded logs
reach Rangoon, they are received by
working elephants who go to meet
them. SO to speak, and land them dex-
terously, afterwards conveying them
to the sawmills.
Young elephants are 25 years old
when they begin serious work, and are
at their prime at 20. when an elephant
can lift with his tusk a log weighing
a ton. or drag one weighing three tons
When an elephant gets to be centen-
arian he begins to got ready to die.
Some Of the Siamese elephants actu-
ally feed the circular saws in the mill.
end so marvellous is their intelligence
that an astute little tusker was once OBJ
served to cease the pressure on his log,
withdraw 1t anxiously and then offer
another part to the revolving saw,
which was formerly going crookedly
through the log.
II sounds strange to say that these
elephants are very human. but 1t con-
veys the exact truth. At the sound Of
the dinner bell the sawmill elephants
wiifinstantly drop their logs and scam
per of. screaming with glee at the well
come respite.
The stocking Of heavy or square logs
is wonderfully interesting. The ami
NAL pushes log to the pile. raises one
end with his trunk and tusks. the trunk
chiefly serving to keep It from slipping
from the tusks. and raises It to the top
of the pile. Then he goes to the other
END on the ground. This. too, is lifted
and the whole log pushed home trium-
phantly.
