the novelties, the latter a lovely ma

chiffon.
Fine quality yelling is also in vogue,
and possesses the great advantage OF
beirig appropriate for many other oc-
casions. Satin skirts may be plain
with round or square trains but thin
stuffs are trimmed with lace, shirrings
or tucks A very pretty idea Is to
edge wide lace with narrow silk fringe,
which imparts q peculiarly graceful
finish. ,~a
DUCHESSE AND POINT LACE
may be used together. particularly on
waist and sleeves, transparent yokes,
dropping sleeves and blouse fronts ard
the accepted models for bridal cos
tunes, but individuality may always
be brought to bear upon fixed styles
High neck and long sleeves are almost
universal; exceptions being at home
or evening weddings. Tulle wells, four
yards long and attached to the hair by
a small orange-blossom spray are al.
ways used, unless the bride owns an
heirloom or some costly lace. Flowers
are inseparable from dressy weddings,
and lillies-of-the-valley, hyacinthe,
orange blossoms or white roses are
most in demand. Trailing sprays may
be placed on the yoke and skirt, but
there is much liberty in their arrange
ment.
THE ELEGANCE
of point lace and satin combined was
illustrated in a bridal costume recent
ly made by Lord & Taylor, for a
prominent society belle. The material
throughout was point lace, over chif-
fon. and that in its turn over soft.
white satin. AS matter of course
the chiffon skirt was finished by
wide plating. A Watteau plait of
white satin was attached to the cen
ter of the corsage at the back, falling
to the edge of the round train. A
transparent yoke of point lace was
above satin pouch front; the sleeves
showed high transparent cuffs with
satin forming the upper part. From
the loose front at either side, three
close lying satin straps were brought
under the arms to the back, interlaced
with the material and finished with
chiffon rosettes and orange blossoms
A long tulle veil was fitted to tiny
crown of orange blossoms.

Development Of the Dominion.

Something Of the wonderful develop
ment that came earlier to our own
western country is now at its height
in the dominion OF Canada. This is
particularly true in the vast section
lying between the earlier settlements
and the Pacific coast. There was a
fine display OF faith in piercing that
territory with modern railroads. but
the outcome justifies the anticipation,
for there is yeritable rush to the
ranches, farms. mines and lumber
producing tracts that are destined to
supply the demands Of the hemisphere
while the denuded timber lands Of the
Unitel States are being regrown.- De-

almost at the age of retirement. His

Tariff Revision Not Probable.

to the contrary appears to be based on

adoption of tariff plank for 1904 not

IL II Is q fact. so far, so good, WITH

to reopening the tariff question unless

THE WORSHIP OF DOGS.

In a recent issue Of Hide and
Leather" paper in the interest Of
the trade indicated, Is an article on
"Shoes for Pet Dogs" From this II
appears that the devotion Of pug-wor-
shippers to their loved CANNES extends
TO the dogs pedal extremites and
that rubber boots, tennis shoes and
calfskln slippers are provided for the
precious pets according to the whlms Of
the women who adore them
II is stated in that paper, that in
the window and outside show case Of
one Of the Fifth avenue. New York,
saddlemaker's there are to be seen, ex.
hibted with dog collars Of all kinds,
different patterns and sizes Of shoes.
The most expensive are made Of the
saddlemaker's own particular leather,
plgskln, set Of four shoes OF this
leather which Is soft and pllable, have
corrugated rubber soles, and are laced
up around the ankles with leather
thongs. These sell at IS a pair, Calf
skin shoes are made on the same last
style IN black, and have llght-colored
heavy leather soles These shoes cost

which are recommended as being the
best liked by the elite Of dogdom cost

much used IN this country, but are
worn by the French dogs with their

The fashion It appears, came like

quickly adopted by heightened women
in New York, who take their four

Since It Is questionable In upper
circles to have babies, which are left
FOR the vulgar and common people to
breed ana nurse and bring up, the
motherless votaries OF such culture
must have something to gush over, so
they turn their affections to pet dogs
and the shoe fad Is one Of the con
SEQUENCES. Dog worship is one OF the
most slckenlng customs OF these de-
generate times, and whether led by a
string or nursed in the arms. the spec

COST OF THE STRIKE.

One Of the points covered by the coal
sti.ke commission In its report is the
cost Of the trouble in the coal region, as
nearly as estimates on that subject can
- made 1t was found that the falling
CT IN shipments for 1902 was 30 per
cent Of the shipments the previous year
or 22,3611il tons less. Estimating the
decrease Tor local trade and consump-
tion at the same rate. the total decrease
o. anthracite mined in 1909 is ccmput-
cd 10 be 24,60l is2 long tons. (which. al
the price received In 1901, meant a de-
crease in the receipts Of the coal min.
ing companies for their product AZ the
mines Of s6iOoO0o"
Another item Is the loss IN wages to
mne workers Assuming the aver
age wage cost Of the coal 10 be about
si25 per ton on marketable coal. and
allowing 70. the wages paid TO en-
ginecls. bumpers ANA others. who re-.
mained at work during the strike. the
mine employees lost ia wages a total OF
about S25.OOO,OOO" Very nearly two
million dollars were received by the
miners from the relief fund. This was
contributed chiefly by miners not on a
strike. and must be counted as "a loss
10 these. II Il is entered as gain by
the strikers.
Another item deals with transporta-
ton. The decrease IN shipments OF the
larger sizes ia 1902 as compared
to 1901, is estimated az l2l20627 long
tons, with an average price at New
York harbor Of Si09 per ton. and with
IS per cent OF the receipts charged to
transportation expenses on this es-
innate the decrease IN freight paid 10
iht railroad companies on these larger
SIZES. If IT Lad ell been sent 70 New
York harbor. would have been about
.ig000.O0Q: and, assuming a freight rate
,ft1 per ton ON the smaller sizes. the
tciai decrease in freight receipts on
he transportation companies would
have been about s2SOooco3"
That makes a total Of y3'l0000).
In all probability these estimates are
TOO high. but they would not be very
ar from the truth, u al losses could
