whom 40 are white and 80 natives.
IT was once a colony of France, but in
1879 it was declared independent, and
its people at once adopted a repub-
lican constitution. 1t is governed by n
President and council of eight, elect

FASHION NOTES.

A novelty in muAs is long and hat,
with sable on one side and chinchilla
on the other.
Black satin overgaiters with patent
leather straps are liked by dressy
women. Those of palmer tastes pre-
fer them made of fine cloth or velvet.
Hand embroidery is one of the fads
of the moment. Many of the largest
stores have special department for
this work, with teacher who gratu
itously instructs purchasers of stamped
pieces.
reception dress of black and white
| brocade was made up with very full,
long train of white satin. The waist
mad entire front, yoke, sleeve trim
mings and sleeve puffs Of white. The
remainder was of brocade.
Pointed shoes, which for time
seemed to be losing ground, are now
shown with the toes more pointed than
any before put upon the market. The
most extreme stoles are SO long as to
be positively dangerous, unless one is
accustomed to them.
Bedroom slippers, knitted or croch-
eted, OF heavy double zephyr and
sewed to soles prepared for that pur
pose, are almost indispensable arti-
cles. They are very expensive when
bought at the shops, hut the material
costs but little, and they are quite easy
to make.
Wide, full knickerbockers of serge,
lightweight cheviot and satin, with
flannel Innings that may be easily re-
moved, are much worn in place of the
short flannel skirts. They are found
to be very cosey, and comfortable for
cold weather, and they make walking
much easier.
A pretty dancing dress is made OF
chiffon. The breadths are side plated
and trimmed with satin ribbon sewed
on the material befor,A plating. The
chiffon is pale yellow, aud the ribbons
are white. The waist is pulled, and
the sleeves have deep frills of the
plated chiffon.
Shoulder wraps OF crochet are very
pretty and becoming, but unless the
stitch is selected with an eve to dnra-
bility, they soon become draggy and
worthless. There are few more for
lorr things than an old crocheted
shawl that has, SO to speaE, been
through the wars.

THE EEvryA1, OF THE BIG MUFF,

The|little round muf1 that we have
been accustomed to carry for SO many
years is fast disappearing. In its
place we have huge affair like those
the Kate Greenaway toddlers were pic
tured as carrying; or else very
small muf' with wide haring ruffies at
either end. The latter model often
combines two furs-one being used in
the mutf proper, and another for the
ruffies. A pretty caprice is to pin a
nosegay OF violets, pansies, or mignon-
nette on tue front OF these frilled
muffs, and they are often further orna
mented by bow Of ribbon or lace.
However. ones old fashioned muff
may be altogether too good to lay
aside. In that case some of the wad-
ding may be taken out, leaving the
fur looser, SO that it may be puckered
little in front, and then ornamented
with small fur head, / saw one in
sealskin, with gathering thread run
obliquely through the front. and three
tiny seal heads set diagonally on this
puckered line. Heads of another fur
might be used, if desired; and of
course, if the coat is of two furs, the
heads ON the muff would correspond
with the coat trimming. The Puritan.

Big Mountain Slide.

One of the longest mountain fumes
vet constructed in this country will
soon be completed in the Adirondacks.
1t is for the purpose of tapping the
rich and hitherto inaccessible spruce
forest on the tall peak commonly
known Us sold Whiteface." This
mountain lies just north of Lake
Placid, and is more than 5000 feet
high. So steep is tho side of sold
Whiteface" that until the present
season no lumberman has attempted
to cut timber there. A wood pulp
company of Ausable Forks decide to
begin operations on q large scale.
Several hundred men are now en-
p1oyed making slide two and half
miles long from the mountain side to
the Ausable River, below the big falls
in Wilmington Notch. This slide, or
fume, is three feet wide and three feet
deep, and is constructed of two-inch
plank supported on a wooden trestle
which in some places is nearly 100 feet
high. Several ravines of great depth
are thus SPAWNED. The outlet of the
f1ume Is nifty feet above the hlSh water
mark of the Ausable River, and at q
place where the river is very deep.
A current of water is passed through
the flume by diverting Whiteface
Brook from its natural channel, and
the incline of the fume gives the flow
ing water an irresistible imretus.
Sticks of spruce timber measuring
about eighteen inches in diameter are
put in all along the line for a mile
down the mountain. A heavy stick
started at or near the head of the
fume will reach the river in seven and
one half minutes Many Adirondack
tourists who have enjoyed the climb
to the top OF "Old Whiteface" will
doubtless hear with regret OF his pros
pective denudation of one of the most
picturesque features OF the North
Woods. New York Times.
