Sashes are in style again. The new
ones are of lowered ribbon, broad and

Fashion says, now that you have spent
all your money on gray and violet, give
them up and wear pink
Three-quarters of yard is enough for
an ordinary stock. The ribbon should be
about three inches wide.
Melted fringes have come around again
with the regularity of all things in fash
ion which repeat themselves.
Feather boas in black white and gray
are one of the fade of fashion in London,
and at least three boas are considered a
necessary addition to the summer outfit.
Notwithstanding the hot weather stocks
should be drawn tight about the throat
The loose, untidy way in which many
women wear their ribbons is anything but
correct
The universal adoption of the ribbon
stock collar has been the means of bring
ing in many new ribbons. Velvet ribbon
will begin a reign in the fall. In fact,
everything that can be made of velvet

cloaks, hats. shrts-everything will be
velvet, and velvet means furs as well.

RAILROAD RUMORS.
NLore of the Alleged Plans of the New
York Central.


New York, August 9.-The Tribune says:
The offer for the Fitehburg railroad by The
New York Central has revived the rumors
of coming New England consultations and
changes. AT the time of the Boston and
Albany merger 1t was said that the New
York Central had offered to lease the
Fitchburg on a per cent basis. This has
since been confirmed by officials of both
roads. The offer at that time was re-
fused, but it is believed the deal win be
effected in the end
1t Will Only be matter Of time, SO those
say who are In position to know, until
the New Haven railroad 10 swallowed up
b. the New York Central. The relations
between the New York Central and the
Pennsylvania are such that when the time
comes for tire New Ravens acquisition
important railroad men say the Pennsyl-
vania will have a word to say about It's
transfer and may get hold of the prop
erty
Outside of The Fitchburg, the New York
Central officials say they expect further
additions 10 their New England connec-
tions later.
