Dresses of Wolfe Will
Be Popular This Summer.

Serge, cloth and the lighter makes OF
frieze are popular fabrics just now. and
many gowns of wolfe will appear as warm
er days arrive. Wolfe will be one of the most
fashionable materials of the summer season.
Those who only know II in the coarse wool
en- types have no idea of its charm in a
combination OF wool and silk.
Fashionable modistes are making a good
many skirts without lining to wear over
slips OF taffeta or satin. apd this is a most
convenient fashion. 1t is also commendable
on the score of economy. There are so
many delightful ways Of these overskirts, as
they are termed. The smartest have inlets
Of lace in medallion form alternated with
velvet or silk. Others. less elaborate, but
quite as effective. have bands or pointed
trimmings OF lace insertion. The wolfe is
cut away from the back of the lace, so
that a colored or white slip shows prettfly
through the openings.

has an appearance Of familiarity, however

EDUCATIONAL WEEK AT
 CH PISTON

Many of the teachers of the country are preparing to spend their Easter holidays in the old City by the Sea. Thus, probably combining pleasure and profit, in a manner not often realized. With the magnificent educational ex- hibits of the general government, com bining in a way almost unequalled the products of earth air and sky. the great industrial displays of the factories and farms and the triumphs of the archi- tect and the landscape gardener, will be joined opportunity to study history from the view point. almost, of partic- ipant and to become acquainted with one of the loveliest sections of our fa- vored land.
 Charleston and the surrounding coun- try, in April is a land of entertainment, when the iassamne and the azalias are in bloom. Near the city upon the banks of an historic river are the famous gardens, Magnolia on the Ashley, which are not surpassed for beauty the world over in fact can scarcely be said to have an equal, in respect of the mag nolias and the aZalcas. To visit this lovely and secluded spot is well worth trip from New York or Boston, and will be an experience never forgotten Tn 1885 Constance Fenimore Woolson gave vent to her rapture over this wilderness of color and perfume, in the pages Of Harper's Magazine, and said Tt is al- most impossible to give the stranger an idea of the af1luence of color in this gar den, when the flowers are in bloom. Here too are grand old oaks and that queen of all the flowers, magnolia grandifora, with its cups of perfumed snow, set in bosoms of glossiest green. In sight of the sea wall of the city arc the old fortresses of Sumter and Moul- trie, which have seen the storms of two great wars. On every side are historic points that must give the traveller pause and stir his interest. A few hours by rail or steamer from New York or Bos- ton. and half century may be re- traV- eled. Extraordinary Inducements are offered for the trip in the shape of low rates by steamer or by rail, and 1t is one that should be taken by all who can os-sibly spare the time and money.

THE CURE FOR POOR BREAD.

It matters not the perfection of every- thing else that enters into bread mak- ing, if the flour Is poor the bread will be poor. Nay, if the flour be not the BEST, neither can the bread be. Be- cause of this. the new Patent Bread Flour" is sure to be a winner, and the New Haven Milling Go. have done the public a real service. They buy up the best Spring Wheat obtainable and convert it into flour by best known modern processes. Note the conse- quent difference between such flour. and that shipped from points, twelve hundred miles away. Be satisfied with nothing less than Patent Bread Flour from your grocer.

It was anticipated that the affairs of the es- tate would be wound up al this meet ing, but the trustee, Louis E. Jacobs, stated that there were claims amount ing to about $500 out, most of them due from students who obtained credit at the cafe, and that the efforts to collect these claims had been without success. The referee postponed the hearing for one month, and efforts will be renewed to collect from the students who owe the estate. It is possible that there may be a small dividend for the credit ors

REPORTED TROLLEY PLANS

Tn Connection With the Sale of the
 Danbury and Harlem Road
 Concerning the reported purchase or tho Danbury and Harlem railroad py +,,a westohester Traction company ol New York city the Danbury News nus the followihg'
 This change can result only beneilelai- ly for Danbury, as it will place tfis ci's in direct trolley connection with New York city and with the Hudson rlVer III Inc event of its being carried out, as It undoubtedly will.
 It was expected that the papers would be signed yesterday, but there was a delay which made it necessary to post none the consummat ton of the transfer until this afternoon. The papers have undoubtedly been signed by this time.
 There are several reasons for the making of this sale One of them is that the road was not completed at the time specified when the work was De- gun; another is that the expense Of construction proved larger than was estimated. The Danbury and Harlem railroad is one of the finest and most expensively constructed in the coun- try.
 For these reasons it was necessary for the bond holders either to finish build ing the road to protect themselves or to sell it to others who would complete it and take up the bonds. The latter course was decided on and has probably rone through by this time.
 That the change will be a great bens eft to Danbury is easily seen. The Westchester Traction company is q heavily capitalized concern which oper- ates many trolley roads It was origi- nally organized by the Balston Con struction company which built the roads now controlled by it. The Bal- ston Construction company bears the same relation to the Westchester Trac- tion company as the Connecticut Con- struction company bears to the Dan bury and Harlem Traction company
 Among the lines now operated by the Westchester Traction company are roads in the vicinity of Saratoga, N. Y., a. newly constructed one between Pleas antville and Osslning, N. Y, and roads further down in New York state. The company contemplates road along the Hudson river which will connect New York city and Albany
 It is said by those who are in posi- tion to know that the work on the Dan bury and Harlan will be resumed im- mediately and that the road from Dan bury to Goldens Bridge will be in oper- ation May 1 positively. From Goldens Bridge, it is said, the line will be ex- tended to White Plains thus giving di- rect trolley connection with New York city by way of Hastings and Yonkers.
 Danbury will be placed in direct com munication with the Hudson river, it is said, by means of a line which will be built to Pleasantville, thus reaching the Hudson at Ossining.
 This is not all that the Westchester Traction company intends doing. It is stated that the company intends event ually to build from Danbury to Wood bury and thus through the state, finally placing Danbury on a direct trolley line from New York to Boston
