Linen Costumes For 1899.

Linen costumes will be worn very
much. Some OF the heavier qualities OF
linen are made up in the coat and skirt
styles like the piques, but there are
also the thinner linens like grass cloth,
made up very elaborately. These last
are made with over-skirt. and have silk

The Summer Hats,

Hats for the summer season are
truly 'fearfuily and wonderfully
made" and many of the early importa-
tions are built of so many different
materials that they look as if they had
been constructed from the odds and
ends of the family piece box. The
large tarban effects seems to be the
idol of the hour and they are built of
straw, tulle, choux, ribbon bows,
feathers, aigrettes and flowers. As
yet simple straw hat with possible
decoration of flowers has not appeared.
Straws are embroidered with paillettes
and appliqued with figures of lace.
The double straws appear again, and
they are found in black lined with
white, butter with cream, laven-
der with green, red with white and
host of other combinations. Flowers
will be more used than feathers for
hat ornamentation. Gray tulle is
much in favor and toques composed of
it are ornamented with jet four-leaf
clovers. All shades of purple and
lavender will be employed in the con-
struction of hats. A large turban-li ke
affair of coarse purple straw has a
tulle crown, and at the left side is a
huge bunch of purple and yellow pan
sizes. A popular shape is called
"Directoire. 1t sets back on the
head, the sides turned up, making q
point over the face, and the brim be-
hind is cut to fall down on the hair.
A dainty ,'Directoire" model of white
straw is embroidered with jet paillettes
and decorated with violets. Many
Of the hats have strings of black velvet
coming from under the brim in the
back. Another model is of black straw
lined with white. Under the rolling
sides are soft pink roses. A dainty
hat of white straw, lined with black,
has brim that rolls upon one side to
show chou of black velvet. The
brim is trimmed with pansies and vel
vet. A distinctly new feature this
season is hat of cloth. A chic crea-
ton has brim of black velvet and a
soft crown of jetted cloth-of-gold.

Colorado Town in Peril.

Denver, Feb 1.-THE Times CORE
spondent has just returned from trip
over the gulches through which the
snow slide near Silver Plume came.
There is little doubt that if the slide
had continued a few hundred feet more
many of the inhabitants of Silver Plume
would have been swept away by the
avalanche. Only a portion of the snow
broke away from the top of the divide
and fully two-thirds remains there now.
If this should break the town of Silver
Plume is doomed; nothing can possibly
prevent it from being swept out of eX-
istence with terrible loss of life.

Liner Sinks at Her Pier.

The continued loading of coal, COM
bined with the heavy weight of the
ice. caused the steamer to list and
slowly sink to the bottom.
