Tufted VeilinSs.

TufteL. veilings are in the market.
and very delightfully."- they are to view
better still to possess. In fawn-color,
smoke-gray, banana-color and willow
green the effect seems particularly
good, and it becomes difficult to make
q choice. One can obtain tufted veil
ings in navy blue and black, the tints
desired by so many women who do not
wear light colors except in wash
gowns. The tufted veilings are quite
novel, much more so than the smooth
finished etamines, voiles and alpacas
OF the mohair type.

Upper Stories of a Block of House Car
ried Away in Baltimore.
Baltimore, Md.-Two storms met in
Baltimore and broke over the north
eastern part Of the city. For more
than an hour the rain came down in
sheets accompanied by cyclonic wind
that carried off roofs, uprooted trees
and did other damage estimated in
round figures at 100000. 1t was prob
ably the most destructive storm that
ever visited Baltimore. AL Of the dam
age was confined within an area of
about two miles. the ;hipping in the
harbor being undisturbed.
In the region affected it was as black
as midnight before the storm broke,
and many Of the residents were SO
frightened that they took refuge in the
cellars, from which they were driven
soon afterward by the water forcing its
way underground. All the time the
air was filed with electricity, and ter
rife peals OF thunder followed eu.h
fash. Broadway and Eager street was
the storm centre. An entire block Of
houses was deIuLed of its upper
stories. Brick walls with the roofs at
tached were lifted out into the streets,
while in the immediate neighborhood
scores Of buildings were unroofed.

A Favored style.

The "bib and apron style Is one OF
the most favored amongst the dress
makers just now; that is, the bodice
has deep rounded piece which is
shaped like a bib coming from the COL
lar, concealing all the front Of the
bodice. almost to the waist, usually
edged with a quilting of ribbon or lace;
while the front Of the skirt has also a
rounded apron-like piece sometimes
simulated only bordered with a quill
ling, rounded off at the back, where
long sash ends further help to carry
out the idea of apron strings. 1t is, of
course, a modification of the old
unique.
