IN THE PARIS SALON.
Reception at Woodward & Lothrop's
Attracting the Fashionable World.


Attracting the Fashionable World.
The Paris Salon at Messrs. Woodward &
Lothrops is the scene of a reception in
honor of bridal trousseaux. French lingerie
matinees, infants and children's clothing
and Partisan novelties in dress.
Mrs. Evans who made a voyage to Eu-
rope especially to select the newest and
most beautiful styles, has, with the aid Of
her young assistants, also adopts in taste,
arranged the display amid cosmos flowers
and palms, under the soft light of chan
deliers, the result being most artistic.
The announcement of an opening in the
Paris Salon always draws a crowd, and
this particular one is being largely attended
by fashionable folk, near and far coming on
cars, on foot and in carriages to see the
pretty things that have been brought across
the ocean, from the worlds great center
OF art in dress. There are some charming
novelties-original creations hitherto un-
dreamed of in the sphere of fashion. For
instance, there are theater or opera jackets
made of diaphanous materials, silk null.
chiffon, ribbons and laces, not much for
warmth, but very much for ornamentation.
Some new features have been introduced
in styles too popular ever to go out of
favor. One is a departure in the accordian
plaitngS of new nlat1neeS the long grace
full lines ending at a flare f1ounce instead
Of on the hem was formerly the in
varia BILE rule.
Pale blue-tinted wedding lingerie is a
new thought, suggested PERHAPS, by the
old legend that the bride should wear
something blue. Unique ideas prevail in
the designs of embroidery on white lingerie
In one. butterflies are lowering over the
blossoms: Crinkled silk is new in bath
robes There is volume of new ideas in
silk petticoats, French corsets. dressing
sacques and peignOirs.
The clothing for small children is so very
attractive it would seem the designers give
their prettiest and daintiest ideas to the
little people-exquisite little frocks that
might have been fashioned in faIyland. The
coats are quite smart, and there is newness
in white zebeline. mole fur and squirrel
The bonnets wonderful. Os. rich tips
and furs are their unique features This
is year of plumes, and baby has a feather
in her bonnet.

Those who were present al the Grand
opera house last night to hear Prof
} Warren Gilbert lecture on the Gettys-
burg battlefield. were much annoyed
and disturbed during The evening BY the
front swinging doors leading from the
yestibule into the auditorium OF the
thcater. Every time The doors were
opened Tie squeaky hinges could BE-
heard All over the house. It caused
the lecturer as much embarrassment a.
It did his auditors. and At times his
voice could hardly be heard above the
penetrating squeaks Of The door hinges.
This inconvenience has been noticed At
the last five or six entertainments given
in the opera house. It Is either neglect
on the part Of the house employees or an
oversight on the part d the manage
mcnt, and it should be remedicd. II a
few drops Of oil will not stop The noise.
IT would be policy to buy new Set Of
hinges.

MAN AND THE UNIVERSE
 DEFINED BY A. R. WALLACE

the other. there is no certainty that 1t will continue to pursue its present path for any long period. There, at least. MT. Wallace seems to have met his critics effectively.
 The latter are convinced however, that animal and vegetable life on the earth are chiefly, if not exclusively dependent on the sun, and that all of the stars might be abolished without any sensible ef- feet They suspect that any other posi- ton in the universe than central ole would be equally advantageous. Obvi- ously, Mr. Wallace must show that they are mistaken if, ',e wants any great num- Der of thinking people to agree with him. Ultimately, he may do so. Within the next few weeks he says, new book will make it's appearance, in which he has elaborated his reasons. For the present he is content to offer an inkling of them. q have found" he says. that such deli cate adjustment and such numerous com- binations of physical and chemical condi- tions are required for the development and maintenance of life as to render 1t in the highest degree improbable that they should all be again found combined in a single planet" Final judgment upon the soundness of his views, therefore, is not yet possible.
