eEwILDERlNe TRIPLES.

Colored wood sticks to match the COW
ering of parasols, are one of the sea-
sons features. The green, especially,
are in great demand.
A novelty recently seen in London
was white linen dress, strapped with
brown holland, the revers of the coat
being faced with the same.
Pale blue ostrich feathers are the
latest fads in millinery and are found
on many of the French hats, rising soft
ly from q scarf of fine tulle.
Jeweled parasol handles are too COM
mon to be novel, but the latest idea in
Paris is to tip each little spike at the
end Of each rib with q mock gem.
A new sailor hat hailing from Paris
has a full crown and straight brim,
all of batiste; the batiste is covered Ill
most entirely with an applique Of lace.
In Paris the hair is brought up quite
to the top of the head, where it is
formed into knot; but it stands out
we'll around the face and is frizzled at
the back. ~, .. .'
The mess Jacket, which is sharing
equal honors with the Eton In England,
is much like the Etop, except that it
opens square at the front and may, IL
desired, lbe buttoned up to the chin.
OF course, IT Is cut OF at the waist.
Many OF these mess Jackets in scarlet,
trimmed with gold, are worn with white
gowns.

NOVELTIES JUST PATENTED.

To assist golf-player a new glove
has snap button which fits into
metal slot on the side of the golf stick
to hold it firmly in position.
Cyclers will appreciate a new pump
which consists of long cylinder with
piston at the end, connected to a
central shaft, which is revolved by a
crank instead of sliding the tube back
and forth, the new pump weighing but
little more than the old one and fill
ing tire in less than half the time
with little exertion.
To assist typewriters and copyists in
keeping their place on the copy a new
device has a frame to hold the book or
paper, with a ratchet wheel mounted
on a roller in the frame and operated
by an auxiliary key on a line with the
other keys to move a line indicator
across the face of the copy, the device
being adjustable to different space
lines.
For use in case of fire, when hose
lines have to be laid across trolley
tracks, a steel bridge is used which
formed of two parallel pieces which
ulC dC Ohc Cuu, the upper one
being raised to lay the hose in the open
ing beneath, after which it is closed
and locked at the other end to hold it
in place. ...
Papers and circulars can be automat-
ically folded, wrapped and addressed
in a new machine, the papers being
placed in pile on the feeding table
which takes each paper and folds it,
holding it until the gummed wrapper
can be placed around it, after which a
slip containing a name and address is
cut from printed roll and stuck on
the wrapper. .........
A newly patented hose rack for use
in buildings on fire has a bracket arm
screwed to the wall, with pins in it at
intervals on which loops of hose are
hung, the pins being far enough apart
| so that the water will flow through
the hose while hanging on the rack,
thus making it unnecessary to pull all
the hose off the rack before the water
will flow. .t .-s

THE CACHE BENEATH THE SNOW
An Incident of Engineering in the Far
West.

The chief engineers face was cloud
chief engineer, scarcely "a, and with
his college life but two short years
behind him. His fathers influence
and his own personality had won him
an important place among the en-
gineers of the railway that employed
him, and now he was in charge of the
party which was making the first
survey for line into the Yellowstone
park
1t had been n brilliant opening for
him. His party was good one, COM
posed of we'll seasoned men years older
than himself, men who had gained
their training from long experience in
the field, rather than from the college
lecture room. Moreover, they had
learned to obey. while they had been
| learning the uses of the transit and
! level, and, veterans as they were, they
yielded themselves implicitly to the
; almost military strictness of the young
chiefs regime.
THE youngster knows what he's
about, sam, the grizzled transitman
had said, the second day after the
PARTY went into camp I'VE can trust
him, all right enough. He's got a
head on him that can beat us all"
For three months. all had gone we'll.
The chief had fulfilled the expectations
of them all, had justified the choice
of the engineer at headquarters. He

field end to withdraw his party, when
