on without cord. The upper one was
the same width, but part of it was
taken uD with the Spanish heading.
There was row of white valenciennes
at the upper edge of this rufIle, and
row of lace at the edge of both at
the bottom, and a line of valenciennes
above the edge. The waist had a
puffed guimpe of white silk muslin,
the putting done very closely. The rest
was of the grenadine, with wide ruffled
bertha around the top trimmed to
match the ruffle On the skirt. The effect
was very beautiful and dressy. Valen-
ciennes lace and insertion are very
popular for such trimming. There is,
in fact, no other lace that looks so
delicate and summary as that, particu-
larry for edgings.
The early Victorian fashions are GER
tainly to be worn to some extent
though it does not seem to me that
they will become general. The idea
shows itself mostly in the wide capes
bretelles and fiOunces, bias folds and
Quillings, also bayadere fancies. These
consist mostly in stripes, running
around the skirts. Where the goods
have no such stripes they are simu-
lated by rows Of velvet ribbon, wide
at the bottom and narrowing as they
go up, or wide in the center with mar
row rows on each side. There is black
velvet ribbon with h any, round, c1rd-
ed edge in white or colored silk When
three or five rows of this ribbon, in
graduated widths, are seWed along the
bottom of a skirt, the effect is quite
brilliant. Another fancy is to have a

Special Correspondence Of the GLOBE.
NEW YORK, june 10.-EVery new
fancy in fashion Is produced in such
profusiOn that it does not take long
for people to tire of it. Yet accordion
plating has had several seasons Of
popularity and now it is revived with
great VigOr There are several widths
and kinds shown just now, one being
fire and even, another in clusters of
four fine plaits and one wide one. Still
another design has plaits all Of one
width, and that an inch and sometimes
q little more But the creates novelty
is what is called sun plating" This
has the skirt cut in a perfect circle,
and the plaits are laid in it in such e
way as to adjust it to the figure like
any skirt The plaits are narrow az
the top and wide at the bottom. The
effect is very pretty. One style of
gown made up in this manner had the
folds laid from the top to bottom.
About four inches from the bottom a
band of ribbon was run through the
plaits, holding them closely to the
lining Of the skirt, to which l fancy
it must have been tackled at intervals.
Ribbon was also woven in and out of Il
central fold down the whole arm and
in two rows across the bust, and also
around the neck. The worst Of these
sun plated skirts is they are at the
mercy Of every wind that blows.

also favorite device where it is de-
slrable to make a lady appear a little

the effect depends upon the arrange

Among the prettiest and most elegant
OF the new trimmings for summer
gowns are the shaped berthas Of fine
old lace. 1t seems a great pity to cut
such lace. but 1t must have been done
to bring them into the FORMS they now
pave. It is not everybody that is able
to pay for such rare old lace, but there

approaching port had eschewel yachting
caps and donned Easter boilnets waving With
l1fe-l1ke flowers and seemingly inviting herb
age.
The birds were hungry, and without much
ado many of them bored into the mhlticoloTed
millinery, while others folded their fluffy
plumage and dropped dead down the hatch
ways.
All this occurred, the story goes, at dusk
Friday evening in stiff land breeze and
q dense fog. The QuarteFmaster thought at
first that the little visitors were Kansas
grasshoppers or Hoboken gallinippers until
Capt. Wallace issued an edict declaring that
they were humming birds
Many of the birds died from exhaustion soon
after reaching the ship but the majority
were cared for by Capt Wallace and the
passengers: Crumbs and pans Of water were
set out and the birds ate until stuffed SO that
they rolled over. Jumps of sugar soaked
in water were eaten greedily, The birds were
so exhausted that they made no effort to
escape, and the passengers secured large
numbers Of them.
peculiar thing was that the birds would
not eat sugar laid on the table, but If held in
the hollow Of partly closed hand they would
stick their bills in and eat. Capt. Wallace
put lump Of sugar in his mouth, and two
Of the little birds sucked at 1t greedily. Capt.
Wallace had eighteen of the birds in his cabin
over night.
When close to Point Reyes he opened the
door and let out the birds. Most Of them, as
soon as they saw land, flew directly to it,
but several dozen stayed behind They slow
~ died, as the sea voyage was too much for
them. though four were brought to port alive
by the captain, while the passengers had
many more.
There were some odd incidents connected
with the peculiar flight of the beautiful birds.
W. s: Mcfarland. of Oakland, was pfomenad-
ing the deck with a lady passenger when the
birds struck the ship. One few against his
ear, and stuck there Frightened by the blow
Of the bird. Mcfarland ran into the cabin in
great excitement. Third Mate Thomas Y,
Hogan had a similar experience One Of the
hirds flew in his ear and another in his
mustache. Both began to drill for food, and
SO scared Hogan that he thought he was be-
witched.
The Walla WalIa has frequently picked up
birds that have been blown out to sea, but
only one or two at time. The surprise is
that there should have been such a flock
together. 1t Is believed that the birds got
lost in the fog ashore and, flying with the
wind, were carried to sea.

Some odd and yet stylish effects are
produced by the guimpes of shirred and
puffed mulls and muslins. These, as q
general rule, have a lining Of pale pink
silk, which gives an effect Of GOODNESS,

satin a shade darker than the dress.
The blouse was cut away on the

bust. Two fancy gilt buttons were
placed on each side of this opening.
Bows OF the satin were set on each
shoulder above the stiff little puff to
the sleeve. All the rest was filled with
the puffed guimpe of white silk null

of a light blue, with a lace frill. The
waist was cut square across the back.

CAUSED BY cARELESSNESS.
There Are Thousands of People Suf-
fering Today, Who Have Not
the Slightest Occasion


Some Of the most deadly diseases from
which humanity is a common sufferer are
caused by the entrance into the system, and
the subsequent growth there, of certain
micro-organisms, or germs. These diseases
nave been aptly called filth diseases be-
cause the germs whoch cause them flourish
most luxuriantly in all sorts Of organic dirt or
MIN. such germs commonly occur in water
oraWn from a contaminated water supply,
or In Ice taken from contaminated ponds or
rivers Among the most common of germ
diseases are typhoid fever, diphtheria, cholera
cholera infantum and yellow fever. Physi-
clans all agree that from impure water the
greatest danger arises. And when it is re-
membered that the only really pure water is
distilled water, that ice water is often pro-
i'hc in disease germs, and that even boiled
water falls to purify it, it is at once seen how
great is the danger that confronts u.s.
The best advice which can be given to
people, whether residing in city or country
IS to make use of some pure, effectual slim
uiant which Will keep the blood In kca.thy
circulation and prevent contagious germs
getting stronghold on a stagnant system
Nothing Will do this well as pure whiskey
and the pure whiskey best known to the
world is Duffy's pure malt
Not only will it keep the system in vigor-
Gus condition, but its addition to even contain
mated water will render It harmless.
