SOME NEW COLLARS.

suits. The collars have long points il front that fold down fiat over the tie. while . circular comb shaped piece O linen stands up crisp as a lily leaf back of tho cars. Around such collar is wound in every case a scarf made of bias soft surah, cut very wide, yer. long and O. some delicate hue. Twice about the neck this is drawn and tied in front in a double knot with arrow head ends falling nearly to the waist line. Some women use with the above mentioned collars long scarfs of Lib- eTty silk with Persian pattern ends and some use q broad satin ribbon tied ln wide bow without ends under the chin and in the middle made fast by q brooch.
 The exceedingly long sleeves are to be commented on. These sleeves are cut to fall beyond the knuckles, OF long cuffs and very wide ones. too, are eat oa to almost conceal inc hand. Down near the wrist these sleeves grip the arms so closely and it is evident that before very long those who pos sess really handsome arms will be wearing sleeves to display every con- tour from shoulder to fingers.
 
 .Jewelled wings in black. white and colors. lace wings with white aigrettes, are the newest fancie8 for the hair. A crescent Of Violets around the hAgh knot. the widest part at the top is very pretty with a bow and ends Of white or violet colored ribbon at one side.
 
 Pretty shoes and slippers have never been so conspicuous as this season, when trailing front breadths must be held high when the WeaTer takes tho least exercise. It is to be observed that cIcth topped shoes are having a return Of feminine patronage and that colcred patent leather vamp5 arg abso- lutely the only kind for dress occasions. Black varnish is of course always a standard, but in the prettiest vagaries Of fashion a dark invisible green pat ent leather is much used, as well as q deep rich red. Some dainty carriage shoes have black clG,h tops. red patent leather vamps and small close set but tons of jet. Only a ve-y irreproachable foot can look well in such dressing, 1t is true, but the novelty of the thing is delightful, just as the slippers tha- show their high he2ls and toes covered with a skin Of gum metal into which tiny colored stones are sunk, have their place in the toilette Of dancing belles.
 
 On account Of l1ha exceedingly damp weather the past few days the society editor has been unable to gather any news in the way Of house parties CT teas, and a good deal Of this Sunday s column will consist Of the public so- cials which have be9n mentioned in the daily Republican b'J. which have been 1 H.-.o o-. repeating.
 This week has been one Of festivities in the way o: public entertainments. :. he matinee of ''Finnigan's Ball" at tracted . fair house Thursday after noon, but in Lhe evening it would have been impossible to secure a seat within q short time before '1he curtain rose. Murray and Mack were a whole snow within themselves. The dances per- formed by the Trumbull sisters were excellent and the cake walk made q decided hit The costumes were very pretty Altogether it was a high class comedy, irresistably funny, with excel lent singing.
 Unfortunately several entertain ments occurred on the same night, making it impossible to attend all, but notwithstanding this obstacle. 5lle ball given at O'Neilfs nall Thursday even- ing was well attended. Ihe hall was comfortably filled and the programme lasted until almost dayb:eak. 4 splen- did supper was served, demonstrating the fact that Company A knew how to entertain and did 50 in their very best manner
 
 The reception rendered the Rough Riders Thanksgiving night by the Wo- mans Relief cclps was a very enter taining affair. particularly the restor- alton of the flag which had been pre- scented to the Arizona troops at the be- ginning of the war. The eve-st took place in the G. A. R. hall and besides the Relief corps and most of Company B, N. G. A, a large crowd of outsiders gathered 4 welcoming address was delivered by Judge A. c. Baker and it was hearuly responded to by Cap tain J. l.. B. AIaeXander Of Troop B, First Volunteer cavalry.
 Among the other delightful features cf the evening were vocal selections by Mrs. Walter Hill and Miss Mamie Plank, and an address by Miss Flora Mills On the return of the dag Miss Mills had the previous honor Of pre-
  new and bright. Mrs Ada Irwin and EIrs. Depew also contributed to the evenings enjoyment and nowhere ill the United States could a mere patri- otic gathering have been found.
 
 One. of the prettiest entertainment that has ever been presented to the public was the Cradle Songs of the Nation" given at the Patton Grand Friday evening under the management Of Miss Roselyn Madden Sargent, whose superior musical talent has been recognized and apprecia ed by all who have heard her at various times. l Owing to the incIemeacy Of the weath- CT very small number attended and evidently the rain had chilled the few who were present through and through, | as some of the best features did not re- ceivc the hearty encore they surely in
