Autumn hats will be fashioned of
mauchou braid, which is really cylin-
der of felt. 1t can be sewed into any
shape and consequently made becom-
ing to all faces. Stiff felt hats will not
be in vogue. Hats of gray will be
trimmed with white and harmonies in
violet, mixtures of green and black,
gray and rose color will also be in evi-
dence. Beige color will be fashiona-
BILE, especially in the soft Tyrolean
shape, with wide band of gros
grain ribbon around the crown and a
bunch of quilts. The new models are
considerably smaller than those worn
this summer. Low crowns are in
favor and toques are slightly smaller
than they were last year, and most of
them are turned up abruptly on one
side. Velvet and fancy woven ma
terial, lace and soft silks will be used
for puffed toques. Velvet will be
much used as trimming and plumage
of all kinds will be much in demand.
The ostrich plumes will be deemed the
smartest. Jet and lace will be en-
ployed on many of the handsomest
hats. Capes will be larger and little
fuller. The collars will be cut in one
piece with the garment. Braiding is
used extensively as a decoration for
these graceful garments. A dainty
cape cut on the new lines is built of
soft gray, braided with little darker
shade in simple but effective pattern
and lined with rose pink taffeta.
Braiding with silk cord numbers among
the latest fAncies of fashion. Still an
other new braiding is to be used on
short jackets. 1t consists of an out
line of silver or gold braid. Chicago

One of the observed of all observers
at recent tea given by Mrs. Cleveland
to number of ladies', gentlemen be-
ing barred, was Mrs. PAX Ye, wife Of
the Minister from Korea. She was
clad in quaint gown of dark blue
brocade and wore a curious headdress
which sparkled with jewels. Mrs.
PAX didn't know word of English,
and could only look on, but seemed to
enjoy the occasion as much as her

The speculative astronomers are now

The teeth of insectivora are sharp

When you pinch your finger you

The depth to which the suns rays

1t has been found that at depth of

1t has been known for some time
that red hot iron is pervious to carbon
dioxide. NJ. Grehant has found by
experiment that the carbon dioxide
does not only freely pass through the
iron, but is decomposed, carbon mon
oxide being set free. This may ac-
count for some of the accidents which
the monoXide has caused. Rooms must
not be heated by red hot iron stove.

She would play the minuet
For the stately-steppings set,
While the ardent dancers met,
Hands and hearts.
Did the old-time spinet care
If Dan Cupid unaware
Pricked the breasts of brave and fair
With his dart?
Now the spiders with their floss
Up and down the keyboard cross
And the strings are dull as dross,
Once so bright;
No one cares to touch the keys
Stained old yellow worries
Save the ghost some dreamer sees
In the night.

DR.. David Starr Jordan, chief Of
the American Commission to investi.
gate the seal fisheries of Bering Sea,
has just returned from those waters,
and his report confirms the predic-
tons that were made year ago with
reference to the effects of pelagic fish
ing upon the seal herds. The animals
on the breeding grounds, he says,
have decreased fifteen per cent. in
number, and those in the hunting
grounds have decreased thirty three
per cent in the last twelve months, all
because of the destructive methods
employed by lawless fishermen. The
decrease, he argues, Will be still
greater during the present year, and
even if pela9ic fishing We're totally
suppressed this season, he believes
that the shrinkage in numbers would
continue until 1900 because of the lie.
structive work which has already been
done among the infant seals. These
statements fully confirm the report
made last year by the American Com.
mission, and they emphasize the con.
tention, so strenuously urged by this
Government, that unless more effective
measures for protecting the seals are
speedily provided the herds are
doomed to total extinction.

THE OLD SPiNET,

IT Is slim and trim and spare
Like the slender Lady Claire
In the gowns they used to wear
Long ago;
And it stands there in the gloom
OF the gabled attic room,
Like the ghost whose vacant tomb
None may know.
I can see the lady's hands,
White as lilies, as she stands
Strumming fragments of Durand's
On the keys;
And hear the thin, sweet strain
OF the Plymouth hymns again,
Like the sob of windless rain
In the trees.
