Quite as many or perhaps greater
number of untrimmed skirts are seen as
those having garniture. The latter styles
are confined almost exclusively to thin fab
rics, though such is the latitude now af
forded that an occasional trimmed skirt Of
thick material attracts no attention. In
this last named case however, the trim
mings are exclusively Of braid Or applique,
but they may run up the seams, be laid
on rather heavily on the upper part or pre-
ferably appear in finish on the lower edge.
The ornateness Of corsages is too old
story to be dwelt upon and of late, some
new importations have been seen, which
show the back as much elaborated upon as
the front, though of course all additions
are fat An example in taffeta silk is
slashed and filed in with satin laid in folds
in precisely similar style to what if in front
would be termed vest; another has pale
pink satin filling overlaid by black lace and
a third is laced by narrow cords in two
diamond shaped designs over blue Liberty

THIN MATERIALS.

One realses continually that the present
season is pal. erceltenee, one in which thin
fabrics are prominent. The perishable-
ness of silk mulls or mousselines does
not apparently affect their popularity; their
butterfly existence is certainly most attrac-
tive and by reason of oft renewal affords
profit to merchants and dressmakers Sar
atoga is eminently the place for such ma
terials, since it is warm and being inland,
does not work such havoc as sea shore air.
With these sheer goods, both lace and
ribbon are used in most extrayagant
manner and more than one gown is made
new again by deft application Of the last
named garniture. As an example may be
mentioned pale yellow mousseline that
shows double bow and ends of geranium
red tafeta ribbon placed on the left
shoulder; band of ribbon commenc-
ing from the bow, runs diagonally across
the front of the corsage and at the waist
line becomes a oirdle.

SHOULDER KNOTS
in general, are quite factor IN evening
gowns and are oftenest put under lace and
chiffon that trims the low neck. A great
deal too is done at all times, by ribbons in
the way of modifying defects in figures,
as for example, when slender effect Is
desired, it may be brought about by RIB
bons that taper to a point at the waist line
and ON similar principles, ribbons running
crosswise give breadth. Girdles also prove
quite power in improving thin figures
and by means of points in front, are rem
dered more permissible to the plump
Some of the prettiest accessories too, are
made exclusively of ribbon. With ribbon
collars, every one is familiar and dainty
ruches, shoulder pieces and vests are also
wholly in this peculiarly feminine appu-
tenane of dress.
GARDEN PARTIES
are the festivities which enliyen afternoons
that otherwise are drowsy times, though
afternoon is more in order for driving than
morning. 1t is during morning hours while
their daughters go wheeling, that matrons
sit in piazza groups; do fancy work; teach
each other new stitches, discuss their own
ailments or those of the family, while diff
ferent properties of different drinks afford
never ending Subject of conversation.
Each woman seems to have her favorIte
spring or springs. but it is conceded that
the great benefit derived from the use OF
Horsfords 5 Acid Phosphate when com
bined with ordinary drinking water, by
women who suffer from exhaustion and It's
attendant ills, Indigestion and headache,
causes larger demand for that article
even in this place of celebrated mineral
waters 1t supplies the phosphates, the
lack Of which, causes many ills and 1t re-
heves mental and nervous exhaustion, act
ing as general tonic and yitalizer.
DRIVES AND MUSIC.
For five or ten cents short drives can be
taken in well appointed conveyances that
run to the springs beyond ordinary walk
inc distance. while from early in the morn
ing till late at night, the air is filed with
music. Morning, afternoon and evening
open air concerts are given in Congress
Park, admittance ten cents, though one
may easily listen from outside, while the
great hotels furnish likewise their morning
and evening entertainments. Artists offer
their special attractions in halls, for ad-
mittance fees; learned men deliver lectures;
conventions speechify; something agreeable
is always going on. Beautiful trees invite
to shady walks and thus if one wants
amusement, it is always to be found.

MADGE FISHER PREFERS TO SIN.


The District Jail was the scene this MORN
ing Of pathetic incident. when Mrs. Mary
McGinn. mother of the youthful profiigate
who has attained notoriety recently under
the name of Madge Fisher by her charges
of brutality against Policeman Melien and
Carlson, visite. her daughter and earnestly
pleaded with the girl to cease her career OF
evil, and return to their home in New York
The motherly pleadings produced no ef-
feet on Madge, and she refused to consent
to the plan. Miss McGinn. alias Madge
Fisher, is held at the jail on a charge OF
incorrigibility. preferred by her mother.
Her case. together with the trial of the
policemen who she claims caused a frac-
ture Of her arm while using unnecessary
roughness In arresting her, will probably
come to an early trial. They have been de-
layed until the appointment of a distric; at
terney.
The girl, according to the statement of
her mother. has not reached her seven
teenth year, and under the police regula-
tons will be committed to the girls re-
form school. unless her mother is able to
secure consent. on the girls part, to rad.-
cal reform, and obedience to parental au-
thority.

NEW YORK, March 1.-The demand in

this morning. First prices reflected adj
vances varying from Is to per cent bu,
were Immediately forced to recede under
aggressive selling by the room.
Further liquidation In New Jersey Central
attracted attention and discouraged coafi-
dence in general advance at this time A
decline Of ~ per cent in this property fol-
lowed liberal professional operations.
During the same period rumors Of a re-
duction in Manhattan's dividend were free
ly circulated, accompanied by sales by
prominent bear interests. A 3 per cent de-
cline was recorded before resistance OF any
kind WAS developed The demand and the
supply were both found to come from the
pessimist.c element. Should the reduction
contemplated be only to per cent as was
suggested. large short interest is ex-
pected to cover under circumstances insur-
ing Sharp recovery in the price of the
stock.
Recent experiences have not sustained
the generally accepted view that events of
this character are fully discounted in ad-
vance. The condition of the market at
the time of the announcement will govern
A sharp advance of per cent i'm Lake
Shore, after strong opening, was the
feature of the days trading. The ecoEo-
mics of the road during the last year and
the favorable financial plans for the fu-
ture forced a 'presumptuous short interest
out Under circumstances which established
a new high level for these shares.
A subsequent and natural falling off in
the demand resulted in a per cent de-
cline from the best price of the morning
Inc irregular tendency noted in the ac-
tive securities was reflected within frac-
tonal limits in all departments.
Washington advices were not of a char
acter warranting increased confidence In
the much-heralded inaugural advance.
The campaign in the industrials has al
ways been considered as certain to ter
inmate during the congressional recess
period. An effort was made to advance
prices as far as possible during the enthu-
siastic period incident to the advent of an
administration with possible remedial
ability. The uncertainties of tariff legisla-
ton and the sensitiveness of the business
seem destined to begin a complete domino
ton of the market some time during The
next ten days.
In consequence of the apparent fact the
immediate high level of the market is not
far OF, in popular opinion. Once Congress
ceases to be factor, however. arguments
for lower prices will for most purposes be
extremely faulty.
The net eS rningS for the month of Janu-
airy reflected decreases in nearly every In
stance, but this fact occasioned no sur
prise. From now on results In this particu-
lar should be more satisfactory.
