Fashion Notes for Early Autumn.

From the court of Louis XIV. come the big bo ..-knots that everybody Is wearing < upon the dress or in the hair. One day when .a Mile. de Fontanges was hunting with the
 king, the wind loosened her hair, upon - which she took off one of her garters and
 tied it up hastily. Next day, of course, the
 court ladies appeared with ribbon having a bow in front, a la Fontanges. The polon-
 aise, which, technically, is in fashion,
 though few women wear in its statel1er
 forms, at any rate, a reminiscense or the Hast days of Louis XIV, when the old King was praying over the follies of his youth' 2 and when costumess though magnificent,
 were solemn. The close-ftting, pointed . bodice, which for a season has aspired to 2 the place of the pouch front, is another
 Louis le Grand fashion. z The paits which Vatican was supposed
 to have bequeathed to the tea gown are to i.. be appreciated for ball dresses, according 1ia to current reports. The first evening aS dresses in this fashion are of quaint flows ' cred muslins trimmed with velvet ribbon, " the fullness of the shoulder plaits is caught g into the draperies below the waist exactly
 as in the old paintings. The ruches fes- '. tooned in arches with which we trim our VI, selves much as we used to trim booths at nE charity bazaars, were a fancy or Duparry nS ahd the ladies of the Kococo court of Lous IIaXW In the Dubarry's day were worn also -. the volumnous spirals or rfGrecques, with i, which the entire skirts of many of the pf early autumn dresses are covered
 The fichu, without which an autumn T dress will scarcely be complete, was brought into fashion and kept in fashion
 by Marie Antoinette, who wore large ones

THE FEMININE OBSERVER

Don't class hens as vegetables because of their crops
 The cool wave man can be aptly termed "a gay deceiver."
 Don't insult girl by begging her pardon after kissing her.
 Don't think blank leaves are desirable in the volume of business.
 Don't think because a man is an ice dealer that he is cold-hearted.
 It is better to be fired by the divine spark of love than by the girls father. Don't strike man below the belt-unless you are aiming at his pocketbook
 But few people have been injured by the accidental discharge of their duty.
 Don't expect to meet a man who gets dis couraged trying to live without work.
 Don't forget to remember that there are some things that should be forgotten.
 Don't think because a man possesses shining intellect that he is light headed. Don't think because time and tide wait for no man that no woman will walt for him.

Naval Officials Had No knowledge
of the Spanish FIotilla.

Washington, May 10.-Up to the time
Secretary Long started for the cabinet
meeting today he was without informa-
tion from Admiral SIMPSONS fleet con-
cerning any action. All inquiries about
the navy department were directed
toward the wherea bouts of this fleet
and its prospects of a speedy engage
ment with the enemy. While there is
little doubt that the officials know the
approximate locality of the fleet it is
quite certain that nothing has been re-
cefved as to the cruising and search for
the Spanish ships. 1t is felt that the
next few hours will determine beyond
further question. whether the Spanish
fleet which left the Cape Verde islands,
did in fact come to Porto Rico. or di-
verge northward back to Cadiz for a
formidable concentration of the strong
est ships of the Spanish navy

to stay outside until Monday.

ALL EYES ON SAMPSON.
Interest at Key West Centers in
the Admiral's Movements.

Key West, May 1o.-The Spanish fishing
schooner Fernandito and the Norwegian
steamer Bratsberg are the only new ves-
sells in the harbor this morning.
The Spanish boat was captured by the
gunboat Vicksburg yesterday morning
while trying to make Havana harbor on
her way from Yucatan. She has a crew
of six men. The Bratsberg is a cattle
steamer and left here a few days ago.
She was acting suspiciously and was ap-
parently attempting to run the blockade
into Havana when she was stopped and
turned back. The Mangrove conveyed
her to this port in company with the
Fernandito, which had prize crew
aboard, arriving here early this morning.
The Mangrove reported that all was
quiet about Havana when she left that
harbor.
The Cuban blockade causes only cursory
interest here now. Everybody is waiting
for news from Rear Admiral Sampson.

Arkansas City, May 10.-Three hun
dred and ffty-five volunteers, compris-
ing the first battalion of the New Mex

through here. There were four troops,
A, B, c, and D, in all $40 men and Is

tain Cook, of the regular army. The
troop captains were Co. A, Capt. Null

bountifu1ly decorated on the sides with
bunting and such notices as ''Hurrah

earth,' Remember the Maine" Their
orders are to go to San Antonio and be
fitted out for the service. It is likely
they will get into active service as soon
as the regulars.
