Repnblicans nnd one Negro.

The negros vote the Republi-

ty success; without their support
the Republican party in this State

titled to one.fourth of the spoils
in this State when the Republicans
are in power. They ought to have
a representative on every State
ticket nominated by the Republi-
cans. They ought to have repre-
sentation on all State boards and
on the Governors military staff.
They are fairly entitled to one of
the big federal offices in this State,

The Latest Novelty is Tartan Cape

NEW YORK, Oct. 1S.-(Special Cor
respondence to The Herald.) The
greatness of the Russian blouse bids fair
to be lessened by new rival which has
made its appearance in Paris and in this
country simultaneously. 1t is known
as the Partisan blouse, and really is a
very pretty affair. The sleeves are
small and the bodice, of course, full. and
slightly pouched in front, but not at the
back, while the center is quite distinct
from the remainder.
One specimen of this sort CT BLOUSE
which attracted me was blue popln,
the strip down the middle being of a
lighter shade than the remainder of the
garment. This strip was covered with
another and tapering strip Of the richest
embroidery on fine white lawn. This
narrowed at the top SO that on either
side the lace cascade was shown to the
best advantage, soft falling lace appear

While it does not seem, so late in the
season. as If anything could, to any ex-
tent, replace fashion so generally pop
ular as the Russian blouse, people, who
ought to know say that the Partisan

of boa and muff. Muffs promise to be
a very important item, too, and will
be worn without reference to other ar
ticles of dress. The newer ones are quite
large, and I noticed the prevalence Of
grey. Another new style is 10 have
ones velvet coat trimmed with fur in
very original way. l saw black vel
vet jacket trimmed with sable, the
latter material being used in bows on
the shoulder and at the belt, while the
belt itself was of the fur.
The popularity of brown in all shades
has MADE the tan cape certainty. The
craze for braidng finds ample opportu-
city for display on these capes, and
most of them are so decorated Others
have strapped seams, and some exceed
ing swell affairs have f1aring collars
covered with lace applique, and jabot
or cravat bow Of net oramented in. the
same way.
The chief millinery novelties are the
pelisses and plaid velvets which are like
ly to be seen. everywhere. The pelisse
stands in the lead. but some of the plaids
are very artistic, and are just suffl-
GENTLY bright in color to relieve the
rather neutral tislts of the hats and
feathers. For tips and plumes are far
from being banished, in spite Of their
use during the summer. On the con-
trary, ostrich plumes of various lengths.
but principally full ones of medium
size, will trim the most expensive as
we'll as some of the more moderate hats.
Black and white in strong contrast is
also to continue in favor
The very newest rain cloak Is Of
cravenette, made in the form of a New
market, or somewhat approaching that
in shape. Its disting gushing feature Is
the new IDEA in regard to the cutting Of
it. The pleated sleeve is set in right
from the neck, which gives ample room
in the arnhole, without spelling the
shape of the garment. Another advan-
tage is the crescent shaped pocket, one
or. either side, which Is SO arranged that
a slit above the pocket allows the wearer
to pass her hand through and hold UP
her dress Every woman knows what
comfort that will be. The coat Is very
stylish with turned over revers in the
front and high rolled over collar. The
back is drawn into the figure with .
belt strap, and the whole style OF the
wrap is excellent, with none of the dis
figuring effect of the ordinary water
proof.
The herald., 1897-10-24

braided in designs, trimmed with rows
of fiat, black braid, or else with black
fur. Sometimes a combination of the
three is noticed as it seems almost i'm
possible to have any article of attire too
much trimmed to be fashionable this
year.
A particularly stylish and jaunty cape
was of this bright red color, in a rather
heavy cloth, coming we'll below the waist
in length. 1t was trimmed with narrow
strips of black cloth, somewhat lighter
in weight, set close together, covering
the red with the effect of stripes. This
is a favorite treatment when trimming
colored materials with black. The col
lar of this cape was edged with chin
chlla which is greatly in vogue this
season Another, and quite different
com bnation of the same colors was
found in black broad-tail cape, which
was appiqued in red velvet about the
shoulders, and a collar treated in the
same way, cut in a succession of points
that rolled back from the neck
The jackets of the year have very high
collars. There is no exception to this
rule, and Medic effects are seen in al
most all of the new styles. The smart
est and trimmest tight-fltting coats are
moulded to the figure like a habit, and
are covered entirely with applqued or
braided designs. Buttons to match
the trimming are often used, and when
this is the case the buttons are. small
On the other hand, large buttons are
utilized quite considerably for decora
tive purposes, some, of them being very
handsome indeed, but the distinctive
feature about these indispensable ar
ticles this year is that medium sized
ones are out of date. They must either
be very tiny or very large.
One of the mot distinct novelties of the
season, and one which is con sidered
most promising by authorities on the
subject of fashionable attire. is the tar
tan cape The plaid may be either
single or double laced. although the
latter is preferable. and is made loose
in front, fitted to the figure in the back
with a belt strap. The collar is high
and quite fiaring. and the epaulettes are
moderately full and edged with fringe
in shawl style. The buttons used on
these wraps are either pearl or bone.
