VARIETY I'm FUR GARMENTS.
The Coming Coats TO he Beth Longer
and shorter and Capes Eiab-
orateIy Trimmed.

Fashion in fur garments has GER
tainly achieved success in the way OF
variety quite as effectuahy as 10 the
various other departments Of dress,
for there are al sorts and conditions
of wraps, all fur or fur trimmed, be-
tween a small shoulder cape and a
| long ulster. Sable, seal, Persian lamb,
mink and chinchilla have the lead in
kinds of fur, with the usual cheaper
grades and various limitations follow
inc In their train. Both blue and sill
yer fox are in use for boas and trim
mings, and there are many combina-
lions of fur approved offashion, which
are very useful in making over old gar
ments.
Sealskin coats have reyers, collar
and cuffs of sable, chinchilia or cara
cul, as you fancy. and seal capes are
adorned with single or double frills OF
sable or caraeul around the bottom,
and also with friLled reyers ard high
collar. Mink capes have frills and
high collar of sealsldn, or of the same
fur with the dark stripe running
lengthwise. Chinchilla reyers and col
lar are sure to give an elegant effect to
Persian lamb coat despite the fact
that chinehilla is said not TO be quite
SO fashionable as il was last season.
1t is quite as expensive, however, but
very good limitations Of it are sold in
narrow bands for trimming
One of the new coat models for seal
skin or Persian lamb is cut away In
front, double-breasted and worn with
a ieweled belt. Both longer and short
er coats will be worn, and other mod
els have decided rest, the coat falling
straight down on either side. Ermine
is used for Innings principally where i
forms reyers and lining for q mink |

Ed. Peters Big Catch.

Fishermen have been having all kinds
of luck in waters here abouts of late and
some of the best strings are brought in
that were ever taken. But the big haul
with a record that will do to preserve to
tell future generations, of, was made by
Ed. Peters, the butcher, Tuesday after
noon, and clearly entities him to the
honor of being the champion angler inn
these parts. AS a sportsmen in any line
Ed. excells. where most others are dist
NAL failures. Some people believe Peters
is possessed of some hypnotic influence
over fish or game for whenever he goes
out with rod or gun he is never known
to return empty handed. He can bag
more rabbits, shoot more ducks, find
more chickens or partridgest and catch
larger fish than any sportsman in town.
It is even asserted that this fat and jolly.
butcher can find game and catch fish
where there isn't any. But what he did
do on Tuesday was to bring home from a
few hours fishing in the Catfish at. .Ful-
ton six of the handsomest pickerel that
ever wore scales. The half dozen
weighed exactly 60 pounds and the larg-
est ofthe lot brought down the scale at
1917 pounds. The lot were photographed
and if anyone has any doubts about this
fish story, they can be furnished copy
with an accompanying affidavit. 4 t55e2S

A Strange Spectacle.

IN all the changing scenes of Amer
lean politics probably the strangest
and most remarkable spectacle ever
presented is found in the attitude of
those silver republicans who, in 1896,
broke away from the republican party
and are now inventing every ina ginable
Himsy excuse to get back into the party
which they so bitterly denounced only
three years ago.
If there was any good reason for these
men to leave the republican party-and
there was-there is infinitely stronger
reason why they should not go back
10 it now Their revolt was based upon
The ground that the republican party in
a national convention assembled, had
taken action that clearly indicated a
purpose TO abandon bimetallism, which
had always been a cardinal principle of
the party. But since then the republi-
can party has taken position even
more pronounced against the restora-
ton of silver, and now stands fully com
mitted to the permanent maintenance
of the gold standard.
In fact. the mask Of pretended regard

The News From Ladysmith.

I ATER news from Ladysmith
! makes it plain that Mondays en-
sagement was not so disastrous
to the British as was at first reported.
The number of British engaged in the
unsuccessful maneuver is reduced one
half. General White attributes the dis
aster to an unforeseen accidental
stampede of the mules bearing the bat
terry guns and the infantry ammunl-
ton. The mules ran away Sunday
night. leaving the column so short of
ammunition that the supply was ex-
hausted by 3 O'Clock Monday afternoon
The British fought with amazing dash
and heroism up to that hour, when they
were forced to surrender.
The wisdom of the maneuver planned
by General White is something for the
military experts to quarrel over White
will have his critics and his defenders.
