The Evening Frock.

Satin finished crepe de chene, bro
caded panne, lace gauze and painted
silks are much favored materials for
evening frocks.
Russian net embroidered in cord and
silks is also popular material.
Jetted nets are quite as fashionable
as ever. The sequined net glittering
with all colors with the sequins sewn
on so closely that the net is scarcely
visible is very much affected for even
ing.
The skirts of evening frocks are all
made with train and luxurious frou-
frou about the feet, but are still fitted
closely about the hips, the double skirt
effect being one Of the leading modes.
White net embroidered with pale
green chenille and pearl sequins is the
charming combination shown in an
evening gown.

Brussels applique lace are seen on
some of the imported evening frocks,
especially those made of panne.-De-

Arezzo, and had passed the winter there,
in the truce following the expulsion of the
duke Of Bari from Lombardy. 1t had, how
ever, become necessary to menace the pope,
who was hilt deep in intrigue as well as
crime, and Tremouille leaving Monsignore
Ambolse in Milan, marched south, and
with the aid of our Florentne allies held the
Borgis and Spain in check. Acting under
the advice OF Trevulzio, Ives d Alegres, and
others, the duke had not entered the town
but kept us in camp near Glove, outside the
walls. The gates of the city and the citadel
were, however, at the same time strongly
Garrisoned, and Trevulzio held command
within. 1t was all the more urgent to keep
the main body of the troops outside the
walls, as they were composed, with the ex-
ception of few French regiments, mainly
OF mercenaries, and by holding the town
with picked men, upon whom he could rely,

A CLERGYMAN'S BREAK.
He Related a Good Story to New
Acquaintance Who Knew All
About 1t.

Rev. DR.. Herrick, U. S. A., retired,
who is known and beloved by soldiers
and civilians alike because of his tender
heart and his kindly wit, has this story
to tell of an experience OF his down at
Fort Monroe He was staying at
hotel there, and among the persons
who made his acquaintance were two
gentlemen. One of them was a Metho-
dist clergy yman from somewhere in
Kentucky, and as his companion had a
clerical look and seemed so great
friend to him, Dr. Herrick naturally
concluded that the companion, too, was
a Methodist. The mention of the town
where the Methodist preacher lived re-
minded DR.. Herrick of a story.
'Do you know Lew So-and-So out
there in Kentucky, the famous horse
man?" he asked.
"Yes," was the answer. The reverend
doctor smiled his kindly smile.
81 heard a story about him the other
day." he said. at seems that besides
being a breeder of fine horses, he was
noted character on the race track.
Betting and racing were passions with
him. The time came, however, when
he experienced change of heart. He
was converted and joined a peculiar
sect called Campbellites, or Christians,
a church of very recent origin. For
several months he kept him to the
strait and narrow way, but one day he
happened to be driving very fast
horse, when he passed a race track.
He drove in, and despite his good reso-
lutions, he fell from grace and present.
ly sent his horse around the track in
the fashion of his unregenerate days.
Somebody saw him and reported him.
He was summarily turned out of the
church. A day or two afterward a
friend met him and asked him if the
dismissal from the church had not been
great blow to him. Lew was uneX-
pectedly cheerful. He was not at ali
cast down.
"'No, said he, q think it served me
right. I ought to have known better
than to join a scrub church with no
pedigree"
The Methodist preached laughed i'm
moderately. His companion smiled,
but in an embarrassed way. The Meth
odist finally dried his eyes.
"And now, Dr. Herrick," said he,
"T want you to know my friend, the
Rev. Mr.. So-and-So," slapping his COM
panion on the back. Hes the man

Corpvoirs Buried Treasure,

The fortune of Croesus lies buried

walloe, in the Lizard district of Corn
wall. In 1874 a Spanish ship. bearing
a freight of ST, 100000 and many bars
of gold to London for safe custody hat
could not be found in Spain, was
wrecked amid the sand and rocks some
distance from the shOre-a cruel, muir
derous-loolling shore. This more than
a fortune has been buried since. A
part of the treasure was once secured
by an enterprising Cornishman (the
government claiming its TOLD, and
more than one band of spectators has
tried to rob the sea of its spoil and has
been defeated by the great Atlantic
rollers and driven home out of pocket,
but yet not without hope. There is
some talk of making another search for
this hidden wealth; but Cornishmen
have been so bitten in many ventures
that they may well button up their
pockets.-London Outlook.

.,eafness Cannot BE Cured

BY local Applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases of of ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but an infamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
