One of the Prettiest of the Advance
Season Creations.

A dainty toilet is fashioned OF
cream-colored chiffon cloth and en-
pire green radium velvet. The skirt
is simply plated and finished with a
border of the velvet, above which are
handsome incrustations of lace ap-
plique in cream and pale green. The
applique continues up the skirt to the
waist line, where it is met by girdle
of white satin.
The fitted bodice is cut with round
neck, and shows a vest of embroid-
cred chiffon shirred at the neck with
a little ruching of net and real valen-
ciennes lace. Draped over the body
is a fichu bolero of empire green vel
vet, with the right side crossing over
to the left and fastening under large
fiat silver buckle. The bolero is bor-
dered with beautiful green and cream
colored silk print. Pulled sleeves of
embroidered chiffon caught with silver
buckles and gagged into cuffs of vel
vet and lace complete the detail Of
what has been voted one of the
prettiest of advance season creations.

A Fruitless Infatuation

Miss Sadie Pettifer, whose papa had

upon the horizon of Lord CIarrickston's
existence at dance in London.
Miss Sadie smiled one of her beau

Miss Pettifer's imp of a brother-aged

the way of box-seats, secretly impart-

AS Miss Pettifer's season abroad
had not been what might be called
a bowling success and the bidders for
her long purse and short upper lip
were neither SO many nor so eager as
she could have wished, Charleston
was received with open arms and
huge dinner party.
But in an evil hour Master Tommy,
pining to return some of the favors
shown him abroad as well as to ex-
hlbit some of the institutions of his
country, had suggested a visit to the
newly,erected Hippodrome where La
PapilliOn, the Worlds Greatest and
Most Beautiful Aerial Artistic" was
nightly performing her breath-stflling
feats. Now the whole race of Clar-

He haunted the stage door of the
Hippodrome as the Thomas Cat haunt

purchased Goldfish, but if she ever
came forth he saw her not; for the
women who issued at the close of
each performance were young enough
to face the world unveiled and not
one of them bore even the remotest

Desperate Battling With the Waves of
This Army Transport.

It has been over As years since this
accident occurred. but | can remem-
Der it as distinctly as thought it hap
pened yesterday, writes an old soldier
to the National Tribune. There were
four companies of us, marines, com
panies A, B, c and d. / belonged to
company D, and we were commanded
by Maj. John G. Reynolds, a veteran
of the Seminole and Mexican wars.
Most of us had been in the battle of
Bull Run, and were picked men from
the Marine Barracks at Washington.
We left the barracks about October
"a, and went on board the Governor
at Hampton Roads about the 9th,
and left with the fleet on the 29th to
take Port Royal, S. C. All went well
until the morning of November l,
when the wind began to blow and the
sea grew rough. We had a little rain
and saw a rainbow, which some of the
sailors said was bad luck. 1t proved.
indeed, to be very bad luck. The wind
blew harder every hour, and the
waves ran higher, and in the after
noon a heavy sea struck the Cover
nor, breaking her port hog-brace. All
hands worked with ropes to make it
secure, but in a little while after that
the starboard hog-brace broke. We
made that secure, when the ropes
that held the smokestack parted, and
that went overheard about two feet
above the hurricane deck. To make
matters worse, steam pipe burst,
and we had no steam to run the en-
