paille brulee are two of the newest
shades In Paris at present both of the
delicate softness and the pastel class.
There is strife between these softened
pastel tones and the assertiVe proper
ties of the unabashed old-fashioned
rich colors. The latter, if they give
way, will die hard, but l rather doubt

crimsons which has a hold on the pub

London Is Delighted With an Innovation.
There has been an innovation in the

Importance to be telegraphed from

A Relic Hunters Defeat.

The mistakes of youth are many and
mostly caused by ignorance. A young
Chicago electrician tells the News of
that city of one rich find he made as
a boy when he was taken by his pa
rents to visit the famous Luray cav
ems in Virginia. They went with an
excursion" party, and as it was his
first trip away from home all the sights
and wonders along the road impressed
him.
But the stalactites in the cave
seemed the most marvellous of all and
he wanted one to take home with him.
There were numerous small specimens
for sale at the cave entrance. but his
father needed the money and had re-
fused to buy. Signs inside the cavern
warned the sightseers of the penalty
fixed by law for stealing curiosities.
Thrown on his own resources the lad
watched his chance, determined to
break off stalactite at any cost, if he
could do so without attracting the
guides attention. The guide was old
in the business and probably knew the
symptoms. AT any rate he kept the
lad in front with the light from his re-
Hector turned on him most of the time.
Parts of the cave are lighted with
electricity, and when they came to the

studded with steel sequins. There was
a frill of lace on the bodice, edged with
a miniature ruche of black tulle studded
with brilliants. A sash of tulle was
gracefully knotted at one side and
edged with lace. The train was gauze,
with design outlined in chenille and
the chiffon frills with which it was bor-
dered were edged with chenille.
A very delicately lovely dress, in
pale shade of pink satin, was worn by
Lady Edith Villiers. There was a
berthe of chiffon edged with line of
pearls. and the creamy-hued lace
sleeves were caught up with bows of
pearls The skirt was finished with
tlounee of satin, headed and edged with
putting of chiffon. The train was of
soft, pale pink chiffon over mousseline
de sole, and it, as well as the bodice,
was charmingly trimmed with trails of
shaded roses.
