The Training School.

The ninth biennial report of the Min
nesota training school, at Red Wing,
has been submitted to the governor.
The period covered is from July 81.
1894, to July 81, 1896. There were pres
emit IN the school on the former date
333 boys and girls, on the latter date
361. During that time there were PIT
new commitments and 81 former in
mates were re-admitted. A total of
Ola were furloughed and with II their
terms expired. Of the new commit
ments, 121 were for incorrigibility and
63 for larceny. Hennepin county fur
nished So of the number, Ramsey 81
and st. Louis II. By far the largest
numbe of commitments were between
the ages of IA and 16- 80 in all. Amer
lean parents furnished the greatest
proportion of the recruits, 72 of the to-
tai mum Der, and children of German
parentage came next with 46. There
were II Swedish and IL of Norwegian
parentage. Minnesota was the birth
place of 127 of the total mum Der.

Don't Like tho Fish.

The Duluth Fisheries association
claims to have made discovery, and
it charges the government with having
defrauded under pretext of helping the
fishermen. During the past few years
a great may fish, known as ''blue fin, -
have been taken from Lake Superior,
and the number seems to be growing
continually. These are inferior white
fish known as Lake Erie, and seldom
grow to exceed two pounds. The fish
cries association believes that instead
of stocking the lake with Lake Superior
white fish, the United States fish COM
mission is passing off the inferior Lake
Erie fish, and filling the lake with
them. This is probably true, as most
of the eggs planted at Duluth come
from Lake Erie.

Many of the winter street coats and
capes have added collarettes made of
very delicate textiles in marked con-
trast with the heavy wrap itself. For
merly these delicate additions would
have been deemed fit only for the most
ornate theater or opera wraps An in
stance of present modes is a green vel
vet cape worn with a green cloth tailor
costume, with a huge collarette OF
pleated black chiffon interspersed with
sable tails and satin ribbon loops. A
black velvet cape lined with old-rose
satin has an immense ruche formed OF
lace, net, old rose, ribbon and jet or
naments. A black velvet jacket has
similar ruche showing a magpie mixture
of costly white lace, fur and accordion
pleated mousselaine de sole.
Many of the newest Partisan even
ing toilets show the corsagles heaped
with pillows and waves of accordion
pleated mousselaine de sole, chiffon or
India gauze Double and triple rows
of it frame the edges of the low neck,
and form the short full sleeves. 1n,~
npense neck rucheS and ruffS are made
of the pleated muslin intermingled with
loops of velvet of satin ribbon or tiny
ostrich tips. Silk and satin dress skirts
are trimmed with knee-deep rows of the
frills, and they also border fancy theater
and opera colfets, handkerchief muffS,
and even the ibrims of large picture hats.
The Empire or sack-back coat has
gained much ground in favor this win
ter, and is found to be at least very
easy and useful garment. The cutters
have greatly improved on the shape we
We're first familiar with, snartness and
a sack-coatIback being a few seasons
ago quite irreconcilable. Though fash
ion favorS coats of this style if greatly
shortened In length, it is never elegant
even worn by the most admirable of
figures. A woman has only to put on
a loose dressing sack that just reaches
the hips TO partially judge of the unbe-
coming effect of this particular model.
Napoleon blue, a silvery tint of that
color much like gendarme blue is one
of the seasons favored colors, and mink
otter and chinchilla furS are variously
used to trim gowns of this particular
color, which is said to be that of the
Emperor's greatcoat, though there are
disagreeable people who insist that this
was only a very ordinary pepper-and-
salt that no really tasteful woman would
wear. However, this denial has no eff
feet upon the prettiness of the Ma
poleon blue" shade; authentic or not, it
has it's admirers and electors. Brutus
brown is rich, tawny shade of that
color, found in cloth, velvet, and cordu-
roy fabrics. Prelate purple, in combina-
tion with reseda green and tan, is at
tempted by stylish women with pink and
cream complications. A new and pecu-
liar shade Of Flemish red is favored by
French designers, and is combined with
jet and chamois yellow, and even with
brown and gold. 1t is something like
pale petunia, but it is trying color that
has for years been despised by all save
Italian women of both high and low de-
gree.
Upon stylishly attired young women
in afternoon dress at the various pic
ture galleries in the city, are noted

match, a huge Empire muff, spreading
picture hat with a witch-like crown, and
any number of disjointed looking feath-
ers apparently fastened on with one
stitch and promise and blown hlther
and yon over the picture creation.
The wearers of these jackets, spite OF
their big muffs and big hats and merely
ornamental fur trimmings, look cold ana
long-skirted and short WASTED, their
abnormal hats and muffs out or all sort
of proportion to their insuf1clent httle
twelve-inch jackets. Certainly uhtii
one has become accustomed TO TINS Hooe
of dress it scarcely appeals 10 one
sense of the appropriate or becoming lor

is considered 1.-The hight of style; there-
fore what further need be said against
it or in it's favor?
Faced cloth remains a great favorlte
tractive imported tailor gowns are
made of this material The prices OF
these goods seem disproportlonate
taken in connection with the fact phat
the material is only wool, not even
intermiXed or fiecked with silk. But II
is wool of the finest description, most
carefully prepared, and beautlfuiiy
dyed. looking almost equal to heaVy
silk and for certain uses being more
fashionable than silk. A stylish winter
costume of Russian green faced cloth
has a Jacket bodice finished with wide
revers Joined to a cape-collar made of
white satin overlaid with a delicate
arabesque embroidery of iridescent
beads. The revers and collar are edged
with mink fur and gauntlet cuffs match
this decoration. The gored skirt is DOR
dered with the fur. Elegant coats OF
creamy tan Melton cloth are lined with
pale-b blue or cream satin brocade, ana
trimmed with sable or other fur, and
among other luxurious garments are
tight fitting sealskin jackets, with box
fronts, the jackets merely silk-lined to
make them less heavy, with additional
warmth impaired by deep pointed cape
collars of the same fur falling over
the sealskin sleeves that fit snugly on
the lower arm and are made without
cuffs.
The vdrious fanciful accessories in
vcIved in many Of the new fashions are
well calculated to fulfill their mission,
hich is to give variety without ma
terial change in the dress. Unusually
interesting and artistic conceits are
shown, and they are most lavishly used,
the effect Of excess being easily avoid
ed by good taste and clever disposal.
With other fancy waists it is always
well to have a black satin bodice plain,
stylish. and close-fitting, with a skirt
to match. This may be quite high in
the neck or otherwise cut square with
one or two semi-transparent chem
