January Is to fall victim to something

Trimmfng0,

Applique sprays and motifs Of velvet or
glace outlined and veined with fine jet will
make charming fancy work for clever fin
gers during the dreary days before US, and
1t is certain that such trimmings will be IN
great request for early spring toilets and for
the smarter winter gowns.
Cretonne sprays and trails are also in re-
quest, and these are usually worked round
the edges of flowers and leaves with shaded
embroidery silk, the stitches not set too
closely. When mounted on lace or pale
crapy fabrics, the effect is exceedingly
good. Another popular trimming is en-
broidered galloon. and this is quite easy to
work at home with colored silks, taking an

and a border of cross-stitching in blue and
gold. A black braid would look well with
tiny starlike flowers In orchid pink and
crimson, the border in these two colors Of
cross stitch and dots being closely grouped.
These embroidered galloons are admi-
rable between stitched strapping Of silk or
cloth, but must not be oyerdone. The new
stitched trimmings of silk and satin are
very effective and save a great deal Of
work. Narrow silk passementerie, or gimp

on silk and silk and wool materials, and is
extremely effective on black, brown or

when they had come opposite the corner OF
Broadway and Bowling Green, directly
fronting Burns coffee house. The gi-
ganttc stranger saluted the innkeeper po-
Htely.
Have you a double cabin next the ocean
that you can lay me tor inquired he in
voice singularly deep and resonant.
The tnnkeeper bowed. So yoluminous
was his girth that he quite half-flled the
wide doorway.
IF it's double room you wish. sir. with
one facing the harbOr. L think 1 can ac-
commodate YOU" answered he.
'P faith. then show me tot an that

He signed the men to resume their bur-

lead OF the rotund innkeeper, cIattered
noisily up the wide stairway.

Of his hand toward the open window.
The obese proprietor rubbed his hands

cation. Its fine room, sir-a fine room

II am minded to book a long voyage
here" said the stranger.
How long will your worship honor u.s."
asked the obsequious innkeeper.
The stranger seated himself by table
stevedores stood about awkwardly tpirl-
ing their caps. They remained silent for
the most part, as any furtiye, whispered
colloquy was instantly frowned upon by
their strange employer. Thus, while the
fnnkeeper was deep in the Iabyrinths of a
mental calculation as to what price he
might dare ask, they continued to shift
their head gear from hand to hand, and
wiped their dripping brows at frequent in
tervals upon their homespun sleeves.

NEW YORK. January 16. 1902.
The ginghams and dimities, wash silks,
foulards and muslins are making right
royal display under the protecting glass of
the show windows and on the counters OF
those hothouses Of fashion, the smart dry
goods shops. The whole world OF women,
still buttoned to the very nose in furs, is
thinking joyfully of spring, and just about
this time at the theater and elsewhere GER
tain unmistakable signs Of the times are
seen. There is, for example, whole crop
of new blouses to be noticed at the mat
inees when the cloth and fur and velvet
coats are taken OF. White nuns yelling,
silky madras, silk corded Scotch gingham
and wash silk waists are none too light for
January wearing If a sufficiently heavy
wrap covers them A box full of novelties
in the companion sketch shows how the
wind Of taste is going to blow in May,
June and thereafter.
The tailorish shirt waists will be tucked
In pin wide pinchings, in broad side tuckS.
decorated and stiffened with rows of stitch
ing, or with box pleats. Two Of the pretty
waists in this group show how effective
blouses are wrought out of goods Of con-
trasting weave and color. One, to the
right Of the box, is made of sky blue nuns
yelling with yoke, collar and front of ul-
tramarine blue yelling picked out In white
dots. To the extreme left Of the group is
a little dotted green and black mohair
waist with its front made Of black ribbon
herring boned together over lining Of green
taffeta. At the shops and elsewhere the
new shirt waists are shown with trimmed
collars and cuffs, and neckties Of the same
material as the little body. A very few
women still cling to the stiff linen collar
and the starchy shirt, but even this minor
ity viii no doubt succumb later to the pre-
vailing taste for light weight and soft
falling goods.
The Mfdseason Hat.
At last the milliners have hardened to
the voice Of reason and brought out mid
season hat. It Is invariably at this mo-
ment that the average woman realizes that
the pretty hat she bought In October is a
bit seedy by January, and should be re-
placed for smart occasions by something

Giymp arose energetically. filed the great

he skillfully lit tinder then puffed, con-
tentedly, huge clouds of smoke of strange

pistol from his belt.

and unconscious. About him were stretch
Cd full score or more of dead pirates.
FOR several hours I was sick from the
very memory Of II. but I presently mus
tered up sufficient strength to pull out to
the Jolly Rover. It took US two days to
transfer the thirteen chests of treasure on
board the ship. The dead pirates upon the
Island we cast after their matesInto the
noisome black pool. The cook was all for
pitching Devremon after them, maugre his
remaining breath but demurred. Instead
I pinned note to his breast in which
told him that should he recover he would

over him. and beside him we left sufficient
food to Last the year-shfps biscuit and the
like. Then, after hauling a boat upon the
beach. beyond the reach Of the tide. we
came away.

Devremon had left upon that fatal day to
guard the ship into an honest path. But
he was full of the thought Of remaining the
jolly Rover and starting out upon q renew
ed career Of pillage and murder. Thus,
when we came to the coast Of ireland I
became law unto myself. gentlemen, and
we strung that able seaman high to the
yard arm.
Happily the coast of which we anchored
was for great distance uninhabited, and
we were thus permitted to land our treas
ure unmolested. After scuttling the Rover
two Of us travelled inland, and by paying
heavily for them secured conveyances for
the thirteen chests. To the COO. and his
helpers. who were all captives, and. so far
as know, honest men, gave one chest Of
treasure. After many adventures 1 sue
ceeded in having the other twelve placed on
board a merchant vessel bound for the

A sigh of relief spread from one to an
other of Glymp's auditors as he concluded
his thrilling narrative

Bell. that for yonder fiend more fitting
ending could scarcely have been devised
II faith, men! Fill up your glasses and

was busy filling the glasses he pointed to
the one unopened chest. THAT chest" said
he, contains what was my fathers for

Glymp raised on high brimming glass

the devils method, shall fulfill some godly

everlasting fires Of freedom-and may all
this gold be fused and purified in the cru

I-pon the second day OF June, in the year
Of our Lord III. he first set foot upon
Manhattan Island. The huge dory. Whlch
served to breach the wide stretch OF water
between the good Queen Bess-amldst
whose lofty rigging there swarmed a score
of seamen-and the quay at the southern
limit of the Battery, was freighted to the
gunwale with twelve brass-bound, securely
padlocked and heavily laden sea chests,
each of which required the united strength
OF two brawny seamen to lift to the de-
cayed planking of the antiquated wharf
Thirteen stout stevedores came forward
at the strangers terse command and each
grasped with one muscular hand the iron
handle of the chest preceding him. while
the other was similarly employed with the
chest which followed. In this manner the
great, ponderously linked human chain
swung slowly across Bowling Green. the
heavy tread of the thirteen Seamen beating
time to the rhythmic up and down wave
of the strangers sword. AS they passed
by the gaudily gilded leaden equestrian
statue of King George III he smiled
grimly:
"I' faith, tbs a clever scheme this: as
otherwise 1 should have been put tot to
hire twenty-four men-two to each chest,

slight, emanated from the belly Of that
closely-packed chest.
Place No. there" he commanded, in
dicating spot in the center Of the room,
and then let's have a reckoning"
He seated himself by the side Of the table
In the outer room.
How much am I in your books, my
heartIesT' he inquired, as they grouped
themselves about the table.
One faxen-haired giant, who lowered a
full head above the rest-indeed. he was
well nigh as tall as Glymp himself-sug-
gested, rather timidly, that "thrippence"
would be enough. Four concluded that
"sixpence would be sufficient compensa-
ton. Five contended that because of the
fact that they had probably lost a days
wages in the Decentralization of the cargo
be over much. Two, more greedy than the
rest, claimed one shilling sixpence, and
one brazen-faced seaman demanded two
shillings; he had glimpsed the gold-laden
bag under the folds of Giymp's cloak.
To the timorous giant Glymp handed
three golden guineas. To the four next,
who hal each asked, modestly, sixpence
Glymp bestowed two golden guineas. To
the five who had asked one shilling-and
fairly, too-he handed golden guinea each.
To the two ard one who had demanded one
shilling sixpence and two shillings. respect
lively, Glymp gaye.that exact amount.
In this strange and untoward manner did
Glymp introduce his inscrutable PERSONAL
ity to the Island of Manhattan and the
community OF New York.
The entrance to the room of the myste-
rious chests opening from the common hall,
Glymp caused to be bricked up and sealed
over, Upon the door of the front room he
had fastened an extra heavy bolt. Con-
cerning these incidents he enjoined the Inn
keeper to maintain strict silence. But a
fact known to the voIuble innkeeper, my
friends, was fact known from New Har-
lem to the tip Of the Battery. For that
Jouy individual possessed innumerable ac-
quaintances; host of friends: q score or
more OF boon companions, and many Of
these, be 1t known. had-wivesi
Thus, the episode of that rear room and
It's mysterious pyramid became bruited
about throughout the length and breadth of
Manhattan Island; and, moreover, the de-
tails multiplied in the turning from one
busy tongue to another.
During the period Of a month subsequent
to his arrival Glymp was wont to sit, day
after day, pipe In mouth. by the side Of the
open window overlooking the bay From
time to time he would lift a long spyglass
to his eye and search the harbor from limit
to limit OF his keen vision. When q ship
hove to on Governors Island Glymp was
often seen to climb over the sill Thus.
with his feet dangling high above the
ground. he would scrutinize infinitely, from
his rather perilous point Of view, each i'm
migrant and passenger who stepped upon
the quay.

A Peau de Sole Skirt.

For those who wear a good deal of black a
skirt Of peau de sole Is most useful, and an
old-fashioned skirt can be gored and length
ened at the back and sides and the addi-
tion quite concealed by two or three shaped
flounces. Two of these frills of five and a
half or six inches deep can be cut from
two and half yards Of new silk or three
narrower ones from three yards
II the frills are rounded in front and left
open and edged and headed with a pretty

but good quality peau de sole is desira-
