POSING FOR PICTURES.
SvhRt to Wear and What Not to Wear When q Really Good Pho-
 toEraph Is Desired.

Photography as an art has attained such . standard of excellence that no pains are too infinite to enhance it's ef- fectiveness. While the primary ob- ject in any likeness, is to portray the features, the pose. the individual, yet 1t cannot be gainsaid that much of our pleasure in viewing the countenance, however perfectly depicted, may be seriously marred by the unhappy selec- 1ion of an unbecoming gown.
 It is mistake to wear ones richest and most sumptuous costume instead of one whose design, being less pro- nouneed, is, consequently, less apt to look grotesque a few seasons hence. Certain materials are risky, to say the least, in photograph. Satins or silks with high luster throw lights and shadows which are harsh and unexpect- cd in reproduction. Translucent fab Fics are by far to be preferred. Softly Holding, easily draped, and not pro- nounced are crepes, either silk or wool, and chiffon. Tulle. nets and such lace like transparent effects depend so much upon the materials which are used as foundations that. in a general wey, they are to be considered as sec ondary in importance, although as dra- peries they may be styled par excel fence. Stiff, starchy effects are to be strictly tabooed unless it be the trans 1ucence of swiss or organdie.
 Stripes and large patterns in lace or silk are failures, big brocades or piaids something to make one weep, especially the photographer who fore nees a demand for second sittings when the proofs are shown. Velvet and fine furs are especially happy selections, and such accessories as handsome op- era clock or long ostrich fan are deemed happy adjuncts with full dress
 Gloves should always be worn with street toilets which include a hat, but since 2 elace glove would be shiny, one of undressed kid is far better. With very light colors the hand should all ways be lifted or placed against background darker than itself since the pink dress will naturally take dark CT than the light fabric.
 Jewelry adds much to an evening Aress, especially in the way of orna- ments about the top of a low-cut cor age. Pearls photograph exquisitely in Nade-up jewelry, in necklaces or in long chains, which may be brought up Aad knotted once or festooned from a sinG1e ornament in front of the cor {14goet Louis Globe be-Democrat.

PITTSBURG. Pa, April 1.-THE danger
line was passed by the rivers here at
o'clock this afternoon. At o'clock to-
night the flood reached its crest and the
decline is expected tomorrow morning
Beyond flooding cellars In the lower por-
ton of the cities of Pittsburs and Al.
legheny, no damage was done. The Pitts
burg & Western railroad was abandoned
from Bennett Station to Allegheny on ac-
count of the tracks being covered by
water at several low places. The weather
bureau sent out a food warning this
morning through the police departments OF
the two cities and as a result hundreds OF
families spent Easter morning making a
periodical move to upper stories of their
homes.
At O'Clock tonight the stage In the AL
legheny river was 22S feet: Monongahela
river 81 feet, and Davis Island Dam, In
the Ohio river, eos feet. The rivers were
stationary at all points. Reports received
from stations at the headwaters show that
the rivers are either falling or station
airy.

Encouraging Reports.

| The reports at midnight from 1ltlS-
burg and headwaters were very encour-
| aging, and the indications are that the
| flood will inconvenience very few peo-
pie in this city and vicinity. The
J maximum stage that will he attained
here will be 80 or SO feeJ,about o'clock
this afternoon The upper rivers were
! about stationary at midnight, although
the Beaver was putting out consider
able water.
| Yesterday and last evening there
was considerable apprehension among
business men and residents of the
lower districts of the city and vicin-
| ity, as to the probable stage that would
be reached by the Ohio as result of
the rises on the upper rivers, and the
! wharf boat and newspaper offices were
kept busy answering inquiries. Many
wild rumors were in circulation as to
the condition of affairs above, and the
| absence of definite information tended
to confirm the rumors and increase the
general alarm. Last evening the big
| business houses in the South and Water
street districts were in readiness at a
moments notice to begin lie work of
removing goods from their cellars to
places more secure.
/ On the Island the low ground be-

was submerged early IN the day, and
many of the residents of the Garden
Spot took this as their cue to remove
| everything from their cellars and to
prepare generally for a big river, but
this work was largely unnecessary, as
| but few of the cellars will be entered.
By daylight this morning a good por-
ton of the fair grounds and Zanes
orchard will be under water, but no
other portion of the Island will be
inconvenienced, unless it be that the
water will enter the old fair grounds
region.
Yesterday the water had backed up

the Peninsula, but no damage had been

On the South Side last evening there
was great concern as to the height the
river would reach, am, as on the
Island, the. residents in the vicinity OF
Main and Twenty and along
CaldwelFs run were cleaning out their
cellars. This may DE necessary. but it
is not at all probable that the water
will appear on the streets or interfere
