Dolls For
 Grand Duchess.
Paris, Saturday.

Paris, Saturday,
 Redfera, the well-known dressmaker, was struck with the graceful idea Of presenting the Empress of Russia with three dolls for Her MaJestys three eld- est daughters, the little Grand puchesses Olga, Tatiana and Xenia.
 Our correspondent was fortunate enough to be able to inspect these three marvels of Parisian industry, ana we now present our readers with the sole reproduction of them.
 All three represent different asps US of Parisian fashion. subordinate to the necessities of society life.

THE PROFESSOR.
ILLUSTR ATES THE DANGER KNOWING
 LANGUAGES THAN ONE

The Professor had accepted his New Haven friends invitation to spend the week with him. and incidentally to att tend the commencement. He had check ed his belongings and was strolling leisurely around the depot waiting for his train. Suddenly his ears were rude ly assail by jargon of sounds, and looking in the direction whence the sounds came he saw about twenty Ital- ian laborers in various stages of ex- citement. Sauntering over to the group he stood for a moment to see what the trouble was The trainman who had been trying to talk to them threw out his hands deprecatingly as the Professor came up.
 "Consarn ye! Why don't ye talk like driving at!'
 Whats the matter?' inquired the Professor. Can't they talk English? Italian? Oh: well. I guess 1 can settle the matter"
 At last, finding someone who could understand, the men straightway began to pour out their trouble, but, as they all seemed to be talking at once. the Professor had his own troubles getting at the root of the matter. They had been hired to go to Windham. a small town this side of New Haven. to work on some town buildings being erected. A man was to have met them at the Grand Central and take them to thei destination, but he had not materialized. and the laborers were almost frantic.
 Got your tickets?" asked the Pro- lessor.
 For reply. twenty grimy, hard. brown hands held up as many cheeks for the baggage car.
 That's all right, then. I'm going your way. You want to follow me and I'll tell you when to get off. Don't lose sight of me"
 Just then a jaunty young lady came into the station, swinging her parasol Seeing the Professor. she ran up to him and effusively offered her hand. "Oh, Professor Holmes! How forum ate! want my dress suie case checked and mamma does not wish me to gel among those horrid men,"
 Where is your mother. Miss Elsie? shall indeed be glad if l can be of ser vice to you"
 | "She is in the carriage I'm going III 1 to Meridian alone, you know-Just fol a few days. Come out to mamma Sht will be so glad to see you"
 The Professor had not been talking tt mamma five minutes before he discov cred that she was looking over his heaC at something beyond him. Her ston! gaze became alarming. Turning arount
 he behed. in all thelr stolid ignorance
 his twenty proteges.
 "Go back" he cried in Italian, wavinl
 his hand. T didn't tell you to follo'

 "Ycu said to keep you in sight an

 on. mammal! exclaimed the girl, as the Professor went off with his body do they look like, anyhow?'
 The train was in. The Professor and Miss Elsie were about to board it, wben suddenly the twenty Italians clustered around.
 'Jovc! clean forgot they are sched- uled for the baggage car. Let me get you seat. Miss Elsie: then I'll get my charges safely settled and return
 He took the m down to the baggage car and tod them they were to remain there until he told them to get off. Then. trusting to their wits to get them on the car, turned and sprinted up the plat form to the drawing-room car, where he had left Miss Elsie.
 The girl was looking out of the win dow and laughing. as he thought, at him. But she met him at the door and gasped. Look, Professor, behind you!'
 There were the inevitable twenty fol- lowing the Professor like mad up the

 dian was reached. As long as their de- liverer was in sight the men were con- tented Then, because Miss Elsie was such a charming little bit of femininity, the Professor assisted her off the car. Before he stepped off he called in to his charges, You stay here, I'll be back in a minute.' and he walked down the platform with the young lady. Anyone to meet you here.

 They hurried through the station and Elsie glanced quickly around. "Oh there he is, that tall man with the golf suit. He's just teing his horse. See?'

A Fatal Flower.

Many Alpine accidents are. due to the eagerness of tourists as well as natives to 2 get specimens of edelweiss and other rare flowers that grow in dangerous places. Professor Kacl Odorfer of Press burg is one of the latest victims of this folly. With some friends he was mak- irg the ascent from Veldese of peak 4.60O feet high, when he saw some edel- weiss flowers on the edge of a preci- pice He stopped to pick them. He slipped, exclaimed jocularly "Hopla"' and tried to seize a bush. He missed 1t. however, and fell down, 1,5OO feet into an abyss where his body was found in a terr. bly, mutilated condition.

anew the mode of wearing the hair
very low over the ears.
Indeed, the ears are in many in
stances quite hidden, a la Cleo de
Merode-a fashion of which We are
supposed to have tired some time ago.
There is an absolute edict against
cutting the front hair. If the forehead
is to be covered it is done most artistic
ally by pushing the heavy, long hair
forward.
This produces the charming effect so
greatly admired this fall. Never has
the hair been so simply and Yet so
beautifully arranged as at present, and
it is hard to imagine that We ever
countenanced cutting it about the face.
The rough hats so popular just now
look better on straight than on curly
hair, a fact which has done away, to
a great extent, with the curling iron.
Even the lovely Marcel wave is not so
popular as it was.
A wealth of smooth, black hair worn
in thick braids, wound low, was notice
able at a gathering of well-groomed
women not long ago. 1t was crowned
with a soft white felt hat, trimmed
with a large black plume and a chou
of white tulle.
A perfectly plain evening coat, very
long and of white velvet, completed a
combination that was simply charming.

and at the play.
Indeed, many of those worn by the
Modistes are so exquisite that one
wonders what can be produced for the
coming horse show so handsome as or
handsomer than these fOrerunners.
OF the large number of superbly
gowned New York women, Mrs. Her
mann Oelrichs is an admirable type.
She is on all occasions properly, as
well as beautifully dressed. For the
last few months her costumes have
been noticeably richer than in the past,
a fact which, combined with her fault
less taste, makes her not infrequently
an object of general feminine as well
as masculine attention.
A black carriage costume of some
veil-like material, made over white silk,
and showing elaborate applications of
white lace, was wonderfully effective
as she stepped from her victoria.
With this she wore a toque of various
shades of violets. On her dark hair,
at the left side, a large and rather
loose white DOW Rested
This bow is going to be a very pop
ular feature of the seasons dressy
headwear.
The toque is one of Mrs. Oelrichs'
favorites. Sne doubtless knows how
very becoming the violet shades are to
her brunette beauty.
Another interesting garment of hers
is biscuit colored broadcloth evening
cloak, cut something like a mans In
verness.
1t reaches a little below the knee, is
plain about the bottom, and has deep
cape with a wide embroidery edge
woven in with the cloth in some mex
plicable manner
The wrap is devoid of all other trim
ming or garnishing save an Aiglon
collar of black velvet with a thread of
embroidery traced over it.
Mrs. Oelrichs wore a black and white
hat with this.
One of her prettiest evening gowns
is of white, filmy material over palest
blue taffeta, simply made, but very be-
coming.
A tall and distinguished looking
blonde attracted some attention, a few
evenings ago, in a rich purple velvet
wrap with a wide chinchilla collar.
The coat was three-quarter length.
very loose back and front, and had
wide chinchilla cuffs.
By the bye, most of the evening
cloaks have these wide fur-trimmed
sleeves
Another worn at the same function
collar and cape of snowy. white thibet.
This also showed the wide thibet sleeve
trimming.
The custom seems likely to do away
with muffs. as each cuff is a muff in
itself.
/ have never seen more dressy hats
than are being worn this season. They
are simply one mass of color, and not
infrequently four or five kinds of flow
ers are used on one hat of the geisha
style.
Attractive and becoming above a
pretty face or regular features and a
good complexion. they are, neverthe-
less, fatal to a plain woman.
Mrs. James G. Blaine, who is in town
at present, has a most novel way of
dressing her dark brown hair. Worn
half-low in one simple, protruding loose
knot, it is a style that would be haz-
ardous to most persons, but is oddly
becoming to her.
She is not what would be called a
handsome woman, but she has a sweet
face and dresses well.

East Mail to New Orleans.

The periodical fight over an appro- priation for fast mail train between New York and New Orleans, serving nearly all of the cotton belt, has taken place, and the cotton belt has won, thanks largely to Congressman Under wood and other Alabama members, who strove efficiently to retain the item in the postffice appropriation bill. A Texas member and the remarkable MT. Gaines of Nashville and some others asked the House to strike out the item of $193 1000 which the fast train calls for, but they were defeated, the vote in the House being 73 to 123.
 This settles 1t, for the Senate has al- ways been friendly to the fast mail ap- propriation in question. The cotton States ask for but one appropriation on account of fast mail facilities, and it would have been unfair to have refused 1t,
 The gentlemen from Tennessee and Texas will have to stand by and see this great wrong committed, but it is safe to say none will throw down their respective commissions and walk out of the House as MT. Moon of Tennessee threatened to do in contingency. MT. Moon is unknown to fame, and he may not be at all lunar in most matters, but leans he is out of his sphere.
