NEW YORK, Oct. 12.-Firing four shots, so that the guilt If their plans were successful should be shared equal ly, four Italians last night at 10 o'clock entered the store of Gaetano Costa, a wealthy butcher, in Fourth avenue, Brooklyn, and killed him. Every bullet took effect. Just as quietly and with as much mystery as all of the other Black Hand" crimes have been com mitted, the four men entered the store, killed Costa and then made good their escape. Costa was wealthy, and for several months he has received letters from the "Black HaSd," in which large sums of money were demanded under threat of death.

those on the left mounting higher and

shown on the map. are rising in the east to
take their places. A watch of only ten or

evident.

the observer Will compare the planet with
the other stars near he will soon notice a
difference in the character of it's light or
luster, while if he has access to a telescope
of four or five inches aperture the little
round disc will be very distinctly visible.
The planet is SO inconSpicuouS In the tel

away. Actually it is great world 30 600
miles in diameter, but so great Is it's dis

a very dense atmosp here and indeed is
very probably wholly vaporized and at a
high temperature. Its density is still very
low; cubic foot of Uranus would only
weigh one-fourth as much cubic foot
OF our earth. and apparently many ages
must pass away as it ShrinkS together and
cools off before it support any form
of life which we can conceive of.
Uranus is attended by four small moons

planet in only two and one-half days. while
the outer one requires only thirteen and
one-half days in which to make the circuit

Hyades. Between these two groups a most
striking star will al once be noticed, a star
very much brighter than any of the fixed
stars in the east. This Is the planet Jupiter,
which Is rising earlier and earlier each
evening and which will for many months
be the most beautiful and conspicuous OBJ
ject in the heavens.
The poSSessor of a small telescope should
not fail to look for the planet Uranus. not
only because it is in more favorable po-
Sition for observation than 1t will be again
this year, but also because il is in very
rich region of the sky and is surrounded by
many beautiful objects which will well re-
pay examination. To make this easier a
part of figure 1 is shown on a much larger
scale in figure 9. This figure is a map of
the stars inclosed within the square at the
bottom of figure l. These may be very
readily found on the sky by noticing that
the stars A. B. c. E. F and K are the same
on both maps. Below and to the right Of

star Dbl; to the left of this there is row
of three sixth magnitude stars, of which

Venetian Women Scorn Fashion.

The women of Venice are absolutely free
from the rule which Dame Fashion exer-
cises over their sisters elsewhere. They
care nothing for modes. With them the
length of the skirt remains always the
same, neither short long, and they
always wear plainly made dark dresses,
black stockings and the heelIess slippers
of the east. Hats are unknown.
The universal outdoor wrap for all ages
and all sizes is the black shawl with a deep
silken fringe. 1t is folded with a short
point above and long one below, and
sometimes it envelops the figure from head
to foot. 1t is never fastened at the throat,
and when it slips off it is gathered up with
one outstretched arm, which makes the
spectator think of big bird stretching it's
wing.
In their attire the women of Venice are
independent, only wearing local clothing
but, with feminine inconsistency, they are
thoroughly up to date in the matter of
hairdressing, the style of their coiffures
changing from time to time according to
the vogue of the moment in London and
Paris.

Care for the Hair and Hands.

The hair is justly termed a womans
crown of beauty. 1t should surround her
head in just the right manner, framing her
face and setting off the eyes. 1t should
bring out the colors and make the features
seem softer and more delicate.
Dull, faded hair, worn scraggy, will not
do this. The woman who does not study
her hair makes a great mistake She
should shampoo 1t until there is gloss.
Then she sould also learn how to dress it
to best suit her own particular style.
The lean and faded face can be made to
look almost young with proper attention.
The face must be massaged every night
and with a food which pumps it out.
The old-fashioned mutton tallow skin
food, made sweet with lavender and creamy
with almond oil, is the best thing known.
The hands need moisture, and the skin
must be fed The hands also need exer-
else, not exercise with certain fingers nor
with certain muscles, but regular exercise
for the whole hand. Let the hands be
soaked daily in warm, rich, soapy water
and let them be treated to paste nightly,
and they will retain their beauty, even
through the toughest work.
hands very well and hold them by the fire
for fifteen minutes she will have as nice a
pair of hands as one could want.

are used, with raised flowers and appliques.
These are generally put over foundations of
soft silk or satin yelled with chiffon.

The sleeves stop at the elbow with a wide,
turned-back cuff or band of embroidery,
under which sleeves of lace come to the
wrist. Coarse lace is much used for the
trimming OF these froeks.
Mania for Black and White.
Black velvet shoes are worn with light
colored evening gowns or even with white.
Black suede gloves are also seen of late
with white gowns The mania for black
and white has reached this year a point
quite beyond all former vogues for the COM
bfnation. Nothing is more becoming than
black and white judiciously mixed. but
violent contrasts en- masse are not in good
taste, and black gloves are really only de-
sirable with a black or perhaps with a
black and white gown. Light gloves are
certainly more becoming to the hand If the
toilet is light.
Satin just now is used almost exclusively
for the picturesque frock. Plain satin
looks better with a gathered skirt and SIM
pie bodice. A gathered skirt is so sweet

Louis XVI corsages and coats are more

indoor wear. A lovely model in old rose
brocade, shot through with mauve and gold
threads, was turned back with some mag
nificent old point de flandres. 1t was cut
short on the hips and worn over skirt of
old rose satin trimmed with vandyke points

with a collar and cuffs OF velvet edged with

The tea gown, with the exception of the
empire model, does not find favor with our
leading mondaines, who prefer the lace
coat. Although one sees, of course some
beautiful tea gowns in lace and chiffon at

made for English celebrities. One of the
most popular models at present consists of
