lace in the dainty manner shown. For edging there were a fold of the velvet and line of brown and beige mixed cord. Lace faced the revers and a frill of crepe lisse ran down each side. Star shaped perforations disclosed beige silk lining all over the bodice except upon the collar and at the sleeves between shoulders and wrist. This is the gar- ment's only reprehensible feature, and even it was excusable. if perforating new goods ever is to be passed over, so pretty was the result. Applications of brown cloth might be bit more sen sible, but they would not be so pretty. However this point is decided, let the copyist stick to brown for the cloth be- cause of it's stylishness. Brown cloth and brown velvet, both in the same garment, makes very happy combina- tion just now.
 More often than not it is the skirt that proves dress this seasons An example was house gown of white nuns yelling, made with skirt so close that every move of the figure showed to the knee, the closeness being carried as far down as possible at the back. The bodice fitted closely at the back and sides, but was distinctly pouched in front to the belt, which dropped. The bodice opening was at the side under an embroidered band of ribbon match ing the belt, and there was a square yoke of lawn over silk. The skirt may be made training a little or not. For the house the loose front is always pretty even though the tight lini1g un- derneath makes it actually as comfort able as the street dress. A dragging skirt seems always suitable in the house. though many are as desirous at home for the skirt that clears the floor as when on a tramp.

FASHION NOTES.
Ornate fin Front, Anyhow.


 Stylish as position backs are, they have many adverse critics. Some con- demn them for general ugliness others declare that they make most ungrace- full finish for a womans back and a look of mannishness is fault that is occasionally found with them. A pretty good answer to all this Is that the cut is distinctly and newly fashion able. If this is not enough, its defender may suggest that the fronts of these same bodices are susceptible to the daintiest treatment. As proof, the ac- companying picture may be submitted in evidence. Here is a bodice of Ha- vana brown satin-finish cloth. In front was brown velvet vest covered with

A French army captain is in New York for the purpose of stimulating the employment of carrier pigeons on transatlantic passenger steamers. His project is to have each vessel supplied with pigeons, some trained to fly to the ships port in America and others to that in Europe. He claims a system of this kind would do much to relieve anxiety as to the causes of delay to overdue ocean steamers.

With the exception, perhaps, of the duchess of Sutherland there is no wo- man in England who excels the count ess of Warwick in philanthropic ener- BY.

Agriculture in it's broad est sense will be taught.

Count Latour's Grandfather.
Philadplpbia Press


Count Latour. who has just been an
pointed minister of worship in the new
Austrian cabinet, was born at Vienna on
the very day Of the shocking murder OF
his grandfather. the minister OF war,
Count Latour, by the Viennese populace
The latter was seized by students and ma
tional guards at the war department was
dragged into the street and there killed
with axes and sledge hammers. The fran
tic people tore clothes and even flesh from
the bleeding body and hung the naked
corpse 10 a galiows erected under the win
dows OF the emperor's palace, where It re-
manned for an entire day serving as a
target to the rifles OF the national guard.
The emperor fed 20 Oimutz and suhse-
quently returned TO the head of an army
under Prince Windischgratz, which did
not obtain possession OF the metropolis he
fore the latter had been subjected to a very
severe cannonading.
The Inflated Count Latour was neitha-
tyrant nor a martinez. but on the con-
trary. the most iovabie OF men. with a
splendid record of military service behind
him. In fact. the mob had no real cause
for treating him with such savagery All
that he had done was TO order A porttor
Of the Austrian regular troops, forming
part az the Vienna garrison. to march
against the Hungarian insurgents. The
troops refused to go and were to;nad IN
their mu,iny by the national guard and
by the students Of the university.

Edwin Gooda,i. senior member Of the
agents of the Pacific Coast Steamship
Company. Will sail north on the
steamer Corona. leaving for Dyea and
Skasuay this morning. At the Rainier
Grand last night. Mr.. Goodan told Post
1ntelligencer reporter that owing to the
great demand for tonnage, on account OF
the large travel 20 Alaska, coal rates On
the Coast had increased over . per cent.
for sailing vessels. A great shortage OF
coal tonnage exists. due 10 the demand for
steamers in the Alaska trade. Insurance
on vessels plying In Alaskan waters has
also been increased by the insurance COM
panies fully 100 per cent.
These things are due TO the unprece-
dented volume of business between the
Sound and Alaska" said MIR. Goodall.
There is no doubt in my mind that all of
the steamers plying between the Pacific
coast cities and Alaska will have all the
business they can accommodate The
great trouble will be that the business will
not be evenly distributed. There will be
. great effort on the part OF every one go
ing to the gold fields 20 cross the passes
in March, and II no trouble is experienced
in handling the people on the steamer
lines. there is some danger at least that
there will be a blockade, for d short
period. on the trails.

running from Seattle. Portland and Vic
toria ought To, and probably Will, be able
TO carry at least 1900 people per month.
For the nve months, this will mean that
1900 people will be sent north by the
cities of the North Pacific coast. which.
of course, is a very large volume of BUSH
ness. We will have six steamers regular
ly on the route between Seattle and Dyea,
Skaguay and way ports. We expect to
have plenty of business and are making ar
rangements TO care for it.
There are no elements of boom in the
prosperity that Seattle enjoys" continued
Mr.. Goodall. This city possesses stable
advantages-any man can see what they
are by looking at the map. Neither Is it
to be said that this business is but tenn
porary in character. l cannot conceive
that the gold deposits of Alaska and the
Northwest territory are confined TO Boz
nanza and Eidorado creeks, or TO those in
the immediate vicinity. Therefore. it is
but fair TO presume that the new gold
producing areas will be discovered.
Another phase OF the development OF
Alaska and its mineral wealth is. that
with the increase and betterment Of
transportation facilities in Alaska, men
will find IL profitable to work ground that
pays, say. $40 per day. that they do not
look at now. 10 will cost much less to
get into the country and to leave it. Food
will be supplied in greater quantities and
at cheaper rates. Men VIII be able to work
ground that they pass by now The coun-
try will be opened up. Thus there Will be
continual travel to and from the interior
and the coast of Alaska. No. essentially
this development and activity In CONNER
cial lines is not temporary. Indeed. it Is
quite the reverse"

was almost exactly s.. including all coll
lateral expenses. or the immense sum OF
