Composed of white satin, it's skirt had q black spangled chiffen front, and sides and back were draped with black chantilly flouncing, the edge of the pat tern running down the front as well as around the bottorH This necessitated cutting and piecing the lace. The bod ice was also draped with spangled chif- ion, which was shirred four times down the front, and lace and chiffon were combined in the epaulettes. Sleeves of satin covered with chiffon ended in jet cuffs, and the same jet galoon gave collar and belt.
 All this reads like lavishness, yet though such a dress costs more than the newest forms of silk lined cloth gowns, the latter are really more ex- travagant For it is now required that the lining be separate, and that means that it must be complete garment. There may be no backing of slashes with separate bits of silk, and the shrewdest contriver of expedients will be hard put to it to twist the fashion to economy. But the most reckless feature of all is the manner in which the outer cloth is cut away Whats
 
 the use of having silk lining unless you show it? Not much, says your disdainful fashionable, and so her new cloth suit is sliced here, shipped there and slashed at the other place, until it resembles the shawl that the poor wo- man tried to pawn, but was advised by the broker to taKe it home and cut the holes out of it.

rnE rRoUrING SEASON.

Again questions are asked about the trout law by people who don't want to fish Illegally The law is plain. 1t says: Every person who shall catch any brook trout or brown trout except with a hook and line, or shall sell, ex- pose for sale, purchase, catch or have in his possession any such trout except from the first day of April to the fif- teenth day of June, shall be fined not more than $50 and costs or imprisoned not more than thirty days, or both; provided, however, that any person may take such trout in waters owned and enclosed by him for the purpose of stocking other waters, or take and sell any trout reared by him in such enclosed waters.
 This means just what it says. You can fish from the first day of April to the fifteenth day of June, and you can catch as many fish as will bite and not get away.

 cipitate Exit.
 Colonel I. N. Walker is the authority for a story which, as he says, is a very proper one for the parlor, and one which contains several suggestions of value to young ladies who may occa- sionally find themselves in a, position requiring the use of diplomacy and tact. This story ayers that in a cer- tain place not very far away, and at a time not very long ago, there was a
 young man who came from a distant city on a visit to one of his friends
 another young man who stood high in the esteem of the community, The wis.,
 iting youth was seriously afflicted with
 the abition of meeting some nice young
 lady of culture and refinement who
 might be matrimonially inclined, and when his accommodating friend told him of very handsome maiden of his acquaintance, his soul was fired with
 ardor and he resolved to pursue his
 suit with energy. This laudable pur- pose was strengthened perceptibly by
 an incidental recital on the part of his friend of the old mans worldly posses sions, and the young man was on ten der hooks until he obtained an intro | duction. The introduction obtained, | he lost no time but called the next l evening. The events of that memor- | able evening abide with him to the l present day.
 It seems the pair were alone in the parlor for something like half an hour when the ardent youth threw discret- | ion to the wind and essayed a feat of | osculation that was Indignantly resent ed. Whether he received blow of the hand upon his features is a mere matter | of speculation, but 1t was quite evident | that there was some stamping of a | dainty foot and a darting of fire from l indignant eyes for the young man was | given thoroughly to understand that if | he did it again the paternal parent would be informed. But the thrust fell l on needless ears, for no sooner was 1t made than the bold suitor once more
 attempted his trick, Then war ensued

Out of the room swept the young lady and the young man was left | to cogitate, but only for brief space | In the next room was the paternal parent, g. man who loved sporting l aDOVe dlmOSL everything etse, anu WheL | his daughter entered he was examin- | ing a double barreled shotgun in a fond and doting manner.

4 TIsOUBLED NEIGHBOR.

Our little neighbor Rhode Island has big heap of trouble. It has a heavy debt and large ambition. This ann bition has led it to begin building a State Housefour or five sizes too big for it, and eight or ten times too costly. The original appropriation of s1,500,000 is about gone, and $S0O,00o more is now called for. And it is said that the structure is not likely to be completed without still another $S0O,000.
 It is sad that Rhode Island should have got into this unnecessary mess with such good example right in plain sight. Connecticut built a State House of the right size, the right shape and the right quality and built it within the appropriation. It would have paid Rhode Island to borrow Connecticut committee to plan and superintend the building of her State House. Perhaps focal pride" stood in the way. If it did local pride has cost Rhode Island more than it is worth.

4NOTHER PEACEFUL DAY.

Yesterday was another peaceful day and the yellow papers had hard work to keep up to the pitch. Red ink doesn't look half as bloody as it did and exclamation points have lost their power to startle. The Presidents per sonal friends" keep talking but they don't say much. The President him self doesn't talk yet. When he does he will have something to say. There is no reliable indication concerning the time when the court of inquiry will re- port, and there Is no reliable informa- tion concerning what they will report. It seems to be true that Spain has po- liteIy pointed out that the presence of large fleet of United States warships at Key West cannot be regarded as a friendly measure, as the sending of ships was officially represented to be when the Maine went to Havana, and the Vizcaya returned the compliment tary visit. The presence of this exten- sive fleet near Cuba, and the war meas ures taken by the United States seem to be regarded by Spain as seriously prejudical to the policy of autonomy. It also seems to be true that the Presi- dent is not just now as seriously con- cerned about the policy of autonorsy as he is about another policy, and that he is not disposed to stop proceeding with the other policy.
