JEWELED IN BARBARIC STYLE.
Chains, Buckles, Bracelets and Ear
rings Worn In ProfusIOn
Nowadays.

Gems and trinkets are more in evil
dence at present than for many seasons
past. Indeed, this species of decoration
has reached such pitch that in order
to be strictly fashionable the up-to-
date girl must load herself In a way
suggestive of oriental stones, and Of all
ornaments none for evening wear is
regarded as more essential than a dia-
mond aigrette for the hair The wing
pattern appears to be the favorite just
now, though sprays Of flowers are also
greatly in vogue. The bowknot, 80 pop
ular in embroidery and applique work,
makes pretty diamond ornament for
the hair. Side combs are more jeweled
than ever, the latest design consisting
of diamond walls Of Troy on the edge
of the comb. Both bracelets and ear
rings being again in favor. many hand
soma and novel specimens Of this sort
are to be seen. Turquoises, diamonds
and pearls, either singly or combined,
are the stones most used for bracelets
anu warnings
The latest novelty in corsage decora-
ton is smaller chain Of gold, SO much
shorter than that which we have been
wearing that it only reaches the decol-
letage, and to which is attached a
round empire ornament in filigree
Buckles increase in size and costliness
and are much worn on all varieties OF
gowns. Buttons really come under the
head OF jewelry nowadays. A big con.
sideration in trinkets nowadays
is the jeweled muff chain. A nov.
city in these is one entirely of jewels
set transparcntly in invisible frames

world has seen since chatelaines be,

THE ALASKAN VESUVIUS.
The Glare from the SpOuting Laws
Turns Night Into Day-Not
Yet Named.

Further information Of the active vol.
cano discovered in the Atlin gold dis
trict in British Columbia is to the effect
that the volcano furnishes the miners
a light by which to work their claims
during the long darkness Of the Arctic
winter. The glare from the spouting
lava, reflected back against the sky,
gives an almost continuous twilight to
the upper end of the Atlin district.
All the passengers OF the steamer
Cottage City, arriving from Alaska
have stories to tell of the volcano, bul
from DR.. w. B. Kinsloe and 7. H. James,
mining men of Denver, who have been
making an examination Of the Atlin
country, comes the best and apparent
ly most authentic description Of the
Alaskan Vesuvius.
THE mountain in eruption" said
Dr. Kinsloe, sis the second in range
Of four towering peaks lying about 80
miles due south of Lake Gladies and a
slightly shorter distance from Atlin
City. These mountains are OF at least
$4,000 feet altitude, the crater resting
slightly below its three brother peaks.
at was in the early part Of October
that the smoke was first seen issuing
from the mountain. With the thought
OF volcano furthest from their minds,
the miners attributed these first signs
Of an eruption to clouds hanging about
the peak. So constant, however, was
daily observation from Atlin City.
Then, on November s, the mountain
burst forth in flames. Through the
smoke cloud there shot stream OF
molten lava, powders and ashes that
frightened the sky for radius OF near
ly 40 miles and sent It's reflected light
through the darlknesspdown upon the
men working on Birch, Discovery, Nc
Kee, Pine and other creeks, the sides
Of whose banks face towards the vol
cano.
"a panic ensued among the miners
when the ashes began falling down
upon them.
"The ashes fell 10 depth Of several
inches and the stream down the noun.
tain side increased in magnitude. The
fall of ashes later stopped and the men
returned to work.
when we left the miners were work
ing nights, gladly profting by the mel
low twilight caused by the volcanoes
glare, which turned night into day.
mo name has as yet been given ia
the mountain, but when we left, the
Canadian officials at Atlin were prepar.
ing for an expedition to the volcano

COTTON MARKET
MUCH FIRMER
The Close Was Steady at Net
Advance.
APATHETIC SPECULATION
The Crowd in the Pit Was Friendly to
High Prices : Conflicting War
Rumors Created Feel
ing of Unrest

New York, December 14.-Taken as u
whole todays cotton market was firm not
withstanding apathetic speculation. Initial
sales showed decrease of two points on
some positions, while others were scaled
upward to an advance of two points with
the market barely steady in tone. 1t was
soon conclusively demonstrated, however,
that commission house brokers had almost
no selling orders whatever, while shorts
were nervous inasmuch as the crop move
ment was not keeping up with predictions
and the Liverpool market had made practi-
cally no response to our decline of last
night.
Before midday an advance of several
points had been established and from that
time on the tendancy was steadily upward
on feverish demand from the bear side and
furries of fresh buying later chiefly on
Wall street account. Naturally the con-
flicting war rumors in circulation created
a feeling of unrest. But as general thing
the crowd in the pit was friendly to higher
prices. Bullish convictions were intensified
by assurances from leading markets in the
south that holders of spot cotton would
not retreat from their position, some in fact
being disposed to raise prices Lice
The rapidly dwindling supply of Spinners
at home and abroad and the slim stocks IN
Liverpool were factors upon which the
south mainly based its resistance to the
demand of Concessions. The market closed
l to points net higher.
