A Florida Frost.

Far on in March, when the thermom.
eter had long been in the eighties, says
+. Whitmore in The Atlantic, the wind
whipped suddenly into the north and
the air cooled 90 degrees in a night.
We were in the field perspiring in
linens when the change came, with an
abrupt overcasting of the sky. A Whit
like the breath from glacier struck us,
the wind blew each moment keener, and
before we fairly saw how it was our
teeth were chattering. 1t seemed unbe-
lievahle, but presently there was no
doubt that January norther was upon
us two months out of season. When we
realized this, we set all hands at work
to earth over the half grown potato
vines. Only few hours of the day were
left, but the men worked desperately
with hoes and plows through the bleak
twilight, and much was done, but not
all. When We came out. shivering, in
the first daybreak, we saw that our
short harvest was to be lamentably
shortened.
We perceived now at last how 1t was
with us. We were not farming, but
gambling with the elements. The cli-
mate had been merely toying with us, a
trump card of spring frosts lying in its
sleeve.

The Patriotic Boycott on French
Goods In Full Swing.
HIGH ART IN DRESS TRIMMINGS.
The New Black Goods Demand Something
Better Than Flounces or Braid, and So
skiilfully Wrought Patterns In Bead
and Jet Have Been Devised.

copyright, 1898, by American Press Asso-
ciation.l
So much depends upon the way dress
is trimmed that it almost becomes neces-
sary to write a special letter about the new
garnitures prepared for the beautiful black
goods about to be presented to us for fall
These black materials, being SO very rich
and heavy, require a different trimming
from anything we have had for a long
time, most particularly for the heavy cord.
cd goods and superb Irish poplins. No
flounces could be put upon such material
without cheapening the whole nor can
braid be used or even velvet ribbon.
There is nothing in the whole range Of
trimming so suitable as passementerie and
beading, and so by natural selection we
have just that, but in more beautiful forms
and tasteful designs than ever.
The general effect of the new garnltures
Is close patterns, those for the waist and
special parts of it being in fancy design
and each quite distinct from anything of
the kind ever before offered. The skirts to
these heavy silks and corded and plain
poplins require little or no trimming, but
where any is desired it is pref erred rather
scant For this are designed narrow lines
of very fine beaded passcmenterie with
small cut jet beads wrought into scrolls
heading q line of soutache covered by
rather larger jet beads. A picot loop is
formed all along the outer edges and is
very effective.
There are dozens and dozens Of different
patterns Of these fine trimmings to choose
from. The beauty of them is their great
adaptability. They can be sewed on
straight or in curves and be wrought into
bowknots and festoons, but where they
are prettiest is when they are sewed in
straight line exactly at the foot of the
dress.
One of the daintiest arrangements Of
the set pieces made up for waist trimming
is a branching spray which is broad over

or it can be buttoned up to the neck. Hats
are matter of taste. think the white
straw sailor shape is rather better liked
for warm days. These have different trim
ming. Some have scarfs Of striped taf-
feta, Others red, white and blue ribbon and
Others band with q few flowers, quills
or rosettcs. There is no one fixed STYLE
Serge, cheyiot and cravanette and crava-
netted covert are the best of the wooden
goods, but the days are upon us when the
thought of wool is a burden without its
presence.
This morning 1 saw O gown which was
dainty and summery but which looked us
though it belonged to another century.
The gown was of apple green printed taf-
feta, the figures being pale and vague in
faded pink. Over the whole was lattice
of dark green satin stripes. 1t was cut
princess shape and opened in front all the
way down over q puffed inset of white
MANILA net. The puffs were arranged in
quilted design. The sleeves were tight to
the elbow and there they ended in deep
lace rufile. There was pork pie shaped
white and green straw hat, and this was
trimmed with a regular "mob cap" Of
white lace with lace ruffle nearly cover
Ing the brim.
This is fancy that have seen repeated
several times lately. That and these stif1ly
gathered pieces of silk set around the
crowns are of very ancient origin. Black
patches on the face and powdered hair be-
long with these. The gown mentioned
above is for the street for warm days

HOW CABLES ARE CUT.


as guide while graphing and as a
bearing to go by when the cable is
hooked
The buoy is moored by means of a
mushroom anchor, which holds we'll in
almost any kind of bottom and has no
projecting points or arms, which might
foul with or chafe the cable.
The buoy rope is paid out till the an
chor is within a few fathoms of the bot
tom, the end being then attached to the
buoy chain on board the boat BY
means Of the apparatus on the boat the
buoy is then slipped overheard and the
anchor allowed to reach bottom and
hold there.
The ship now leaves the mark buoy

ing 1t till the cable is hooked.
AS soon as the cable is hooked it slips
by means of pulleys between two knives
or teeth. 1t is then slightly lifted, and
the strain caused by the lifting is strong
enough to bring the two teeth together
with force enough to cut the cable.
But with the perfection of cable cut
ting has come an improved device for
cable laying, so that damage of this sort
may be rapidly repaired. The British
naval authorities are considering the
adoption Of new method of laying
submarine cables which, if successful,
would altogether change conditions in
time Of war. By this new method it is
claimed that warship or liner can
readily be fitted to lay cable of special
design at rate of more than 20 knots
an hour.
One can easily realize how important
it might be to maritime nation, espe-
cially one with vast colonial possessions,
like Great Britain, or which relies for
protection on powerful fleet, to be able
to lay comparatively short cable, Of
from 500 to 1000 miles, in very short
space of time, and withal so secretly
and unostentatiously that the enemy
would never suspect until too late that
such communication had been establish
ed.
The new cable is much lighter and
less expensive than the ponderous affair
used for spanning the Atlantic. Three
hundred knots weigh only 1870 tons.
while the price averages only $500 per
knot. Coiled on large drum, two Of
these holding 800 knots, ready for use,
can be slowed in the hold of good
sized ship Here would be 700 miles Of
cable, weighing but 800 tons, slowed
away ready for immediate use.

Cable cutting is one OF the new fea.
lures of modern warfare. The old time
admiral was good deal of free lance.
He set out with his fleet under orders
Of general character, and he often
roamed the seas for months at time
without being in communication with
his government
Ocean cables have changed all this.

as to the whereabouts of the American

1t was to stopthis sort of thing that

Gently sent to Cienfuegos, ON the south
side Of Cuba, to cut the cables which
kept Blanco in touch with Madrid. For
the same reason Dewey cut the Manila
cable.
AS all permanent cables are regularly
charted it is not much of trick to pick
one up and cut it if a spot is accessible
where the water is not too deep. By re-
ferring to his chart the commander Of a
warship can get the approximate loca-

rying in the end an American heires7
with fortune as big as his or possibly
wedding foreign duchess.
No one ever suspected that the Amer.
ican millionaire possessed any such dem.
ocratic sentiment as patriotism. But il
seems he does. He has come to the front
just like any other citizen, and in spite
% his millions has offered his personal
services to the nation. He stands ready
not merely TO spend his dollars, mind
you, but TO shed his blood and perhaps
lose his life. OF course in spite of his
millions he values his life no moro
highly than does the penniless patriot
who joins the ranks and takes the same
chances but it is rather hard for us,
who can imagine the tun it would be
to be a live millionaire, TO think of the
sacrifice as a light one.
Not all the men of millions have en-.
listed Of course, but there are at least
90 men in the volunteer army today
who are among the millionaire class
Some of them are sons of rich men and
are either just out Of college or have
left the campus for the camp Some are
prominent clubmen, society leaders anC
fnanciers. Some are in the ranks and
some have commissions. All have left
the luXuries and comforts which custom
has made necessities for them and have
gone to the front.
Ono Of the most conspicuous Of thes5
fighting millionaires, because he is the
richest is John Jacob Astor. His is the
biggest fortune in the United Slater,
and he could alone arm and equip al
army big enough to drive the Spanish
ont of Cuba from his own resources.
But he is willing to let the rest Of the
people do their share while he takes tho
somewhat subordinate position of in.
spector general with the rank of lieuten.
ant colonel His duties will probably be
to act as a sort of supervising financier
for the army, see that Uncle Sam is not
cheated by contractors and that the dis
bursements Of money are made without
leakage or waste. The $3.50 a month
which he will receive as pay will per.
haps be enough to pay the wages of his
valet.
Another member Of the same family
who is also fighting for Cuba is William

giously refusing TO buy any goods of any
description made In France. This country
had right TO expect at least friendly neu-
trality from France, and IL has found en-
nifty so great that nothing but the fear Of
another and greater nation has kept her
from open sympathy with Spain. So, sis

We do not need to go abroad for our new
cotton bicycle coverts. These are unusual
ly strong and handsome goods, scarcely
distinguishGble from the real wooden COW
erts They are made up In the most simple
manner, but every one is tailor finished.
The skirts, when they are not divided,
measure three yards around the bottom
and are faced up and stitched until the
skirt sets out roundly. They are not so
apt to catch on the chain. These coverts
are produced In many colors, but those
preferred by the leading houses after long
experience are gray, tan, dusty brown,
olive, russell green and a sort Of dusty
tan. The effect of the dust color is wrought
very cleverly, and so no one can tell
whether gown is old and dusty or now
and dusty. The only trouble is that none
of these colors ever looks clean.
There is an endless list of Russian
crashes for the wheel These are handsome,
firm, cool and ready shrunk so that they
are good to use. Irish and Scotch linens
are among the materials used in bicycle
costumes, and these, too are washable.
They are crisp and cool, and linen is now
considered one of the best as well as health
lest of all textiles. Oatmeal cloth and
bourette are the other fabrics for wheeling
gowns. They are mixed linen and cotton,
and very soft and pretty they are. The
most of the crashes and mixtures of linen
and cotton are In fax shades. The short
skirt reaching little below the knee and
the high laced bicycle shoe and invisible
bloomers form the combination most Of
ten seen. A neat shirt waist and leather
belt holding o small bag for handkerchief,
change, etc, and bright necktie make
the costume complete.
There are such pretty ties made Of white
pique and also silk of various qualities,
all with American flags printed upon
them, sometimes large and sometimes
very small, but always beautiful. For the
cool days, or hours in the day, l think o
