New York Fashion Letter.

Up to this time we have had a
great deal OF color in u gowns and
combinations which heretofore were
considered far too gay for street
wear. Violet and red has perhaps
the most odd combination, while
blue and green, cerise and purple,
black and purple, have attracted
their own share Of notice. Now that
the weather has settled and has be-
come permanently warm, such COM
binations as these are almost entirely
abandoned, and dove gray and yell
low, slate gray and pale pink, blue
and white lavender and corn color
hold sway in tie soft materials for
extremely warm weather. A large
variety of shades in green are worn,
somaLimes two or three shades in one
gown, and often one shade com bined
with cream, white or linen.
Almost all of thin batistes, dimit-
les, lawns, swiss and linens are
made owe colored slips and trimmed
with ribbons, the same color as the
slip or a contrasting shade. As silk
is Iasusi expensive log susse summer
gowns, tho stores are showiaga large
variety Of lawns in solid ~col0rs, which
make a cool and durable lining.
Some skirts have the outside mater

pointed yoke effects, leaving the

has hopes that the CITY will see clearly
and heed the want OF public batks.
The fire department has lived q praise
worthy year of service. and great ad-
vancement has been made in the way
OF water facilities. The Mayor calls at
tention to the necessity OF placing
alarm wires under ground, and he lso
advocates q law that will compel the
electric light and trolley companies to
bury their lines Public safety and
: public 90 tility demand it.
Greet progress has been made during
the past year in increasing the harbor
facilities, and the Mayor looks forward
hopefully to the close Of the year, when
the channel will have been sufficiently
enlarged and deepened to enable Provi-
dence to rank with Boston as port Of
commerce.
The highways have also grown in
utility during the year. Asphslting has
heen applied to many thoroughfares.
The Mayor recommends that Trinidad
asphalt, so successfully employed on
several streets during the year, be used
universally. He also recommends that
the trolley companies furnish tank cars
or sprinkjers to lay the dust during dry
weather.
There has been gratifying increase
in the attendance at the public schools.
The work of the school year has been
excellent, and, the Mayor adds, special
praise is due the evening school depart
ment.
Regarding the peculiar relations be-
tween the city and the Narragansett
Electric Lighting Company, the state
of which is well wotled of by all citi-
zens, the Mayor suggests that a COM
mittee be appointed to learn the legal
statue of these relations.
On the free transfer ticket question,
the Mayor shows no white feather.
The General Assembly's trsitorous eva.
sion of its duty to the citizens is not
passed over. and the conviction is ex-
pressed that some day an honest legis-
ture will convene and compel the trans
fer system.
Great increase of revenue would fol-
low, says the Mayor, if all property
were taxed where it lies. Great revenue

CAPITAL BUILDINGS.

The capitol building of the Empire
State at Albany has been in the ttroes
of construction for twenty-five years or
more. IL has cost more than $50 ,00O,-

preparation bill for a fresh slice of the
peoples wealth. Instead Of being the
result which it should be, the finest
specimen of its class in the world, ii is
simply monument Of disgrace. And
now, after enough money had been
spent upon it to buy or build good

shat it is inadequate to the purpose for
which it was originally planned, and

It is hard. indeed, to estimate the
growth Of electric motive power during
the last decade. Iu place of the little
group Of struggling electric roads OF 10
years ago we have today very nearly
1900 miles OF track equipped with not
less than 10000 motor cars. The rail-
way motors in use aggregate fully q
million horsepower, and the general

year just past about 1000 miles of elec-
trio railway track have been built. and
nearly 5000 motor cars have been
added to the equipment list.

is not entirely obscured. But the proof
