with the trimming fuller and more

OF THE fiounces the small petticoat
which the presen. fashion of small hips
has caused us for the moment to give
up. The drawers, also made of lawn,
must be wide and very short.
Here, godmother, l must mention an
adorable trimming for a bride, which
l admired in the show-rooms of the
iMaison Giraud, where / obtained the
information 1 have given you. 1t is
a square yoke with a point in front,
made OF old Bruges point lace, and is
incrusted with groups of cupids play
Ing amid garlands of roses. This lace
is of unheard-of beauty and perfection.
And don't you think the subject pleas
ing by its suggestive %gallantry?
But let me go On with my story. There
must be three dozen night chemises,
all Of different shapes They differ only
from the day chemises in the length of
the lawn bodies, for they are generally
low necked and sleeveless, or else made
with a baby sleeve. or rather a Jockey"
sleeve. They are either very much
trimmed or very little. according as they
are intended to reveal or to hide.
The long-established corset cover is
no longer worn; at the outset a dozen
only are required. They must be fault
less in shape. and should be renewed &C.

f~rivolity does not make us impractical.
The shape of a corset cover is that Of a
heightened bolero, in order to respond
to the protecting quality indicated by its
name. The most exquisite combinations
are adapted to this style of trimming,
but the skillful and complicated incrus-
tations of Valenciennes lace that I have
seen are marvellous.
Lastly, "a p%etticoats with wide fioun-

MY Dearest Godmother,

Nothing could have given me greater

bethothal OF your dear little daughter
Yvonne. I know how much the pros
! pect of this union must delight you.
The Marquis de NJ" is the bearer OF
one of the greatest names In France. I
remember your childish fear OF sacrific-
ing the youth Of your little daughter to
your taste for solitude, but you see that
the sweet dove has been stolen from the
eagles nest so proudly nesting among
the Alps; and q was right in my belief
in the happy destiny of an heiress like
YVonne, who combines in her own per-
son the triple attraction Of birth, for
tune and beauty.

your visits to Paris are ABOUT at ldSt 10

not doubt that your grandmotherly de-
votion will often bring you here,
though all the solicitations OF your
friends are in vain.
In the meantime. dear godmother, l
am quite ready to prove myself worthy
OF the confidence you have manifested
in me (by consulting me on the import
ant question of Yvonne's trousseau.
You calumniate yourself when you ex-
press doubt as to your exquisite and
sure taste, and the most your grand
children can say .of you is that you
are a little old-fashioned IL you bring
out again one of the innumerable trous-
seaux that occupy whole floors of ward
robes.
But you know perfectly we'll that your
godchild will spare you that worry, and
since in this matter you want to make
me "Parbitre des elegances," I will do
my best to satisfy you.

THE BROOKLYN
BRIDGE.

New ork, July %. All street car and
vehicle traffic on the Brooklyn Bridge
was stopped ut noon to day as "a result OF
tho breaking OF several suspension rods
yes erdav.
Chief Engineer Probaseo. Of Depart-
ment Of bridges, has notified Acting
Bridge Commissioner York that traffic on
the Brooklyn Bridge will DO resumed in
full TO morrow.
Two Inspectors OF the Board Of Health
visited the bridge 10 day and later said
that they had found nothing was wrong,
and that in their opinion the bridge was
perfectly safe,
The trouble was caused by expansion
due to the heat. A con ributing canse,
however, was an order that came from the
Bridge Commissioners by which we were
forcei to run eighteen trains over the rail :
road instead of fourteen trains. lC WAS
absurd to put so much additional weight
on the BRIDGE
Trenton July 25.-Colonel Washington
A. Roebling who was the chief engineer
of the Brooklyn bridge, to day said that

the municipalities which W re using 1t.
His remarks were based on the opinion
that the bridge was competent If used rs

The Brooklyn Bridge said Colonel
Roebling. was built for he pu poe of ac-
communicating foot passengers, teams and
cable cars. There was times when l00,O 900
people were travelling over the bridge.
That was ut the tine before it was coz
Dleted and 1t was generally regarded Us q
dangerous privilege.
Extensive heat such as Is ordinary to
he season could not cause the expanion
rods such as are on the bridge 20 give ami
expands as hey have. The bridge has
received a mixed strain. New York and
Brooklyn move with rush and give the
bridge spasmodic strains. There has been
some expression as 10 the effect Of the
electrolysis might have come with the in :
PRODUCTION of the trolley lines, but can
not see how that had anything to do with
the particular trouble because elec;rulysls
only troubles iron and the girdors of the
bridge are steel, and in my opinion they
are competent to hold the strain of TIE
bridge forever.

New York. July 25.-Captain
Titus, chief of the New York City
Detective Bureau, to-day forwarded
to Chief of Police Nicholson and
District Attorney Hammond, Of
Pittstiela, two atfidavits concerning
the Fosburg case. The first af1i-
davit is made by Alice Dugan, who
says that she is a housekeeper on
East Forty-second street. this city.
She says:
THAT a girl named Landslide,
Springfield, Mass. who is living
with her now, told her about three
weeks ago that a man named "Lew'
Gray and another man visited the
house of thet Fosburgson the night
of Auguat 70, 1000, and found
pistol on the table. aud that he shot
girl and escaped.
The second affidavit is made by
the Handside woman, but signed
- Gray the last name being that
of the man with whom she had been
living. She says that her home. is
Springfield, Mass, that she was
at Springfield on August 10; that
she remained there until Labor Day
and came to New York. On August
70 she met Gray on Main Street.

He also said that he got gold
watch and hid it under large tree
at Warren. He then left. The
next time she met him was in the
middle of September, and in New

TIN F ANIME
THREATENED.

1t is the great canning industry
Of the country, centcrca largely in
New Jersey. Delaware aud Maryland
that is feeling most acutely the rise
in tin plate consequent upon the steel
strike and the closing Of the mills Of
the American Tin plate Company.
For tho e engaged in canning the
conditions which have developed out
Of the strike. are Of a most serious
nature, This is Just the season when
fruits and vegetables are ripening. A
80 per cent advance in the price Of
tn plate is in itself blow to the in
dustry, but this is as nothing, as was
pointed out yesterday, to the proba
bilIty that tin cans will be unobtana-
hIe at any price if the mills continue
closed.
in such an event hundreds Of thou
sands OF dollars worth Of fruits aud
veg tables will almost certainly be
lost, because they cannot he kept.
Their loss would fall with crushing
weight On the truckers and fruit
growers, who look to the cannerles to
buy what they raise.
Tin plate made further Jump in
price yesterday, The y. x &. lay
Tor Company, the only independent
concern Of any Importance in the
country, advanced their price for IA
by 70 inch lo0-pound bright coke tin
plate to s. box This is LOO above
their selling price on saturday last.
The Taylor Company has been pro-
ducing something less than 10 per
cent. Of the tin plate made in the
United States, the trust making the
balance.
A somewhat similar condition has
developed in sheet steel. Outside Of
the trust mills there are not oyer
bali a dozen firms in the business.
Two Of the largest are the Allan
Wood Company, Of Philadelphia, and
the Mccullough Iron COMPANY at
Wilmington.
From the former firm it was learn
ed yesterday that the price for some
numbers Of Sheet steel had advanced
one cent a pound, or over $40 a ton,
since the strike began. Other num-
hers are not to be had at any price.

DAILY. EXCEPT SUNDAY
FRIDAY. JULY 70, 1901

We do not think anybody can ac-
cuse Governor Hum OF appointing
Union Republicans 10 office. With
few exceptions indeed, in New Cas-.
tie county. his appointments have
been Regulars, and thus tar they
have not caused much comment.
You can hear some cuss words in
certain places with which the Gov.
ernor's name is coupled. We do
not know who his advisors are. but
whoever they are, they very poor
ones. The sooner the Republicans
put competent men IN Office, the
better it will be for that party if it
wiahes tor supremacy. Officials
should be men who have the respect
of the public and not men who are
believed capab bic of any low, mean
act, if thereby they can filch a
dollar from the pockets OF the un-
fortunate who fall into their
clutches. Mans inhumanity to
mau makes countless thousands
mourn. We wish Governor HUM
and some Of his advisers would
come to Wilmington and get the ear
OF some good Democrats before
making any more appointments in
Wilmington. The appointments
made by the Governor are what
helps to strengthen or weaken a
party. He who runs may read.
