EDITOR BREcKENRIDGE News - Dear
SiT:-On the 9th instant, in company
with my good wife, l left Cloverport for
Nashville and Memphis, and wish 1
could have the satisfaction OF writing for
your many readers all that l have seen
and heard. What ! have seen would
lend pleasure to the mind, and what /

Passing over many beautiful scenes
along the way, l will only meution the
Tennessee Centennial as grand affair
and worthy OF great State. Fine arts,
history, architecture and antiquities,
painting, sculpture and drawing, are all
we'll represented.
Nashville was the home OF Andrew
Jackson and James X Polk. Their
tombs and old home places are among
the numerous attractions OF the city;
even their tombs lend inspiration to
Democrats. Either one, II living today,
would read the riot act to Plutocrats.

ing, which taste she inherits from the
queen. In their youth all of the royal
children had at Osborne, the beautiful
home in the Isle of Wight, a separate
little garden of fruits and flowers.
These are still kept, but the Princess
Beatrice is the only one who tends her
little plot. This is planted with sweet
carnations and pinks of all classes,
and il is said that Queen Victoria loves
better than any flowers a handful of
these old fashioned flowers cultivated
by her daughter and full of happy
memories. Near this little garden is a
huge pack of .rabbits of the long wooded
or Angola variety, which the princess
loves very dearly, and uses their wool
for weaving articles which she con-
tributes to charity bazars.
The Princess Louise loves to collect
old silver, and when she is in London
she spends much time in visiting the
shops. One of her favorite pastinfes is
salmon fishing, and she is very skilful
at this sport. All of the queens daugh-
tiers are good needlewomen and excel
lent cooks, and today the Princess
Louise often invents a dish prepared
by her own fingers and boasts that
she would have been a good chef. The
queen excels in making omelets, and

big bow at the wrist
Big, soft wrist bows have taken the
place of the plated frill that used to
fall over the knuckles, and some women
whose proportions of arm are such as
to challenge the admiration of the be-
holder, have their sleeves fitted from
wrist to shoulder as tight as can be
endured. So close, indeed, is the silk
or satin drawn that anything like free
and easy movements are utterly pre-
vented, and just a Whit of chiffon
at top and bottom relieves the exceed
ing rigidity of line. There is recently
noticed an undeniable tendency among
the women to fasten a neck bow under
one ear and make the bow tight and

black velvet band puts last touch to
the neat bodice. Little by little the
trimmings of black velvet ribbon are
coming into use, after having long been
popular on the other side, where even
at this late date ACCORDION plated
skirts continue to be worn. To show
one of the ways this velvet ribbon is
applied, the cut of an evening gown
gives a fair illustration. This is a pale

full petticoat banded with three clus-
tiers of ribbon in groups of five. Broad
lilac satin ribbons cross over the Shout

hang out to simulate tails and are

Such a dainty dancing suit is meant

tirely covered by light green satin
collar and tabs, richly embroidered
and edged with a tiny ruche OF green

done in high puffs, ornamented with
strings of pearls and diamonds and
cluster of the geranium flowers and
ruches. With this costume a novelty
will be worn in the shape of white silk
gloves, with longarm coverings of real
lace extending to the shoulders and
embroidered with silver and pearls
The newest caper of fashion is to
wear long tight sleeves with decollete
bodices. The sleeves must be of
transparent material gathered and
closely following the shape of the arm.
Equally strange is the shape of the
newest decollete; very low at the back,
almost reaching the point of the Cir
die, but fortunately within decency in
front. This new decree of fashion is
nevertheless followed with charming
effect in an elegant dinner toilette of
pompador brocade on an ivory colored
ground. The skirt of the rich ma
terial is entirely plain, close fitting
over the hips and rather narrow, ex-
cept for the deep-box folds at the back,
which extend considerably Showing
the return of the hustle in a moderate
forml and fall in moderate train.
The bodice is close fitting and has a
pointed girdle of black velvet laced at
the back, and is draped with soft
d'alencon lace over gold lace, which
also covers the front of the bodice in
crossed fichu-like form and is attached
by loops and knots of black velvet and
diamond buckles. The long sleeves of
gathered illusion has at the shoulder
a full plated ruffle of the illusion, gold
lace and point d'alencon, also knots of
black velvet.
Brilliants are worn in the hair, and
as a necklace, and on the left Shout
der is a bouquet of red roses with
foliage. One red rose with leaves is in
the hair.
Ruches, founces and full plaitings
will be used as garnitures on costumes
for all occasions.
A dainty youthful model is worthy
