NEW YORK FASHIONS
Extremes in Neck BOas. Thin Fabrics,
Trimmings, Underwear, Hosiery,
Gloves.

The fluffy boa is very pretty ac-
ent extreme, it becomes positively alb
surd. Imagine a stout woman with
the ends of long boa iluttering in the
breeze, ribbons or ribbon velvet dying
from her hat, and long skirt 10 be
held up, trying to board "a car. to say
nothing of pocket and parasol

iect of pity? Not content with Liberty
silk or chiffon rullles, several inches
wide, finished by cording on grenadine
ribbon, but silken leaves so light that
they float with every breath of air,
give an additional nulliness. Ostrich
Hue edges are also used, but these are
limited because very expensive. The
charms of tall, slender women are en-
HANGED by the very means that brings
confusion to their sisters, in opposite
style.
THIN FABRICS
are more in demand than ever, and
embroidered veilings, batiste, pom
gees, gauges or stamped bobinet lace,
afford wide field for selection. Lace
insertions, edgings, sprays or ruhies
bring about some novelty in dress
making, and white silk braid is iber-
ally employed in open designs on
plain, sheer fabrics. TatTeta silk
folds or bands trim lawn or dimites,
employed as heading to a nounce
and also in round yoke shape on a
tucked bodice. Graduated folds are
a beautiful skirt trimming, the edge
finished with fancy white silk braid,
and this is peculiarly effective on
colored muslin or pongee. Lace un'
dersleevers have become so general
that they are now sold by the pair al
all the leading stores. Plain Oh
figured sashes are equally in favor,
although with costume of borderec
or figured material, plain sash is in
superior taste. Peau de Cygne is the
favorite silk for waists, often sc
deliberately trimmed with lace inser'

heavy goods like homespun, tweed

To few people the decision OF
the President on the appeal of Ad-
miral Schley came as a disappoint-
ment, but it had been expected by
the majority. Few men are capa-
ble Of rising far above their sur
roundings and of acting in entire
opposition to their political adyis-
ers, and evidently the President is
not one Of them. At the same time
! it should be remembered that the
admiral did not appeal to the Pres
ident on those points which the
public would have been glad to see
the President compelled to review.
The actions and attitude Of Admi-
raj Sampson, from his arrogant
message announcing the destruc-
ton Of the Spanish feet down to
his approval of the Infamous histo-
) ry, written 10y laborer Maclay, have
been the chief causes of the resent
ment Of the people, and these have
: never been touched on by Admira
e Schley or his attorneys in their re
!. quests for justice. Secretary Loul

Died on DEVILS island.

Only the other day there died on
Devils Island, the French convict set
tlement off Cayenne, the man who in
vented and patented the telegraphio
system now universally adopted in
France. and known as the multiple
transmission system. Victor Nimault.
twenty years ago. was an electrical
employe of the French telegraphic
service. In 1871 he discovered and le-
gally protected system OF multiple
transmission. on which he had been
busted for years. Almost coincident-
ally NJ. Baudot tnot an ofiiciaD in
vented a somewhat similar apparatus.
This NJ. Baudot, being a personal
friend Of NJ. Raynaud. the director OF
the telegraphic department, found
favor with that gentleman, and the
Baudot system was finally accepted
and universally adopted as the better
of the two. Victor Nimault brought
action against NJ. Baudot and NJ. Ray
maud. and. after losing lawsuit after

was tried, sentenced to imprisonment
for life, and In due course was sent out

President Loubet. subscription made

But 1t arrived too late. for Victor Nj

died the day before port was made.
The irony of 1t all is that poor Nj
mault's system has been in use in
France for many years now; for. after
he was sentenced. 1t was found TO be
preferable 10 the one adopted and ap-
proved by Raynaud, the then director
~ the telegraphic department.
