 l. Developments of the princesse are always in vogue for velvet, and here, too, the skirt decoration just describ- ed is very desirable. The top DOT tion of princesse is usually of lace and, in fact, the guimpe is one of the prettiest styles, since no combination is more altogether lovely than lace and velvet, and the light material with the heavy is quite in a line with fashions other delightful little idi- osyncrasies of the moment. Cloth and velvet are combined in the fashioning of charming reception gowns, both for daytime and semi-dress evening wear.
 { An olive green confection was of satin-face cloth made with plain circular skirt trimmed with two bands of velvet two shades darker each band four inches wide and put on in wide points, the ends crossing, the two following each other. At the intersections there was dainty design wrought in braid on the vel vet, and between the points on the cloth were larger designs of the same pattern. The bodice of the cloth was quite plain, with a vest of velvet decorated with the braided motifs and G QOlllGu yOhG OL ie1SC, NAAS ASAAAs SNtS ting down into the vest.

 A great deal of gold will be seen this season, and of that old gold some of it of an almost brownish tinge. It is wonderfully beautiful mingled with the deep, rich colorings and the soft shimmering gloss that characterize the cloths that are out for our delec- tation. White costumes will be wrrn throughout the winter, even for street and visiting, and with these the gold trimmings suggest themselves quite as

NEW WEDDING FASHIONS.

Tn London it is the fashion at we'd dings to present boutonnieres to the guests generally as well as to the bridal party. These wedding favors are. of course of natural flowers and consist of buttonhole bouquets for the men and bouquets size larger for 1 the women.
 |, They are distributed at the conclu- sion of the ceremony while the regis try is being signed. The bridesmaids and the pages present them, carrying them in baskets siung on the arm. | They are also distributed in the ves- i try.
 Tn England lilies are a favorite flower for weddings; in America the orchid is preferred except for the brid- al party, for whom lilies of the valley or orange blossoms are generally pro- vided. the bride carrying a large shower bouquet
 The bridegroom gives his left arm to the bride when conducting her from the vestry down to the bridal carriage, and it is optional for the connie to nod to friends as they pass. The best man should preeede them to the porch, remain there and see them into the carriage.
 The brides mother leaves immedi- ately after the bride and bridegroom, to be in readiness to receive the guests as they arrive. Indeed, when the crowd is great, for her to leave by a side door Is not an unusual thing l to do in order to hasten her arrival l home.
 She either receives the guests at the head of the staircase or in the drawinsroom. The brides father joins her. as soon as he returns to as sist in receiving.
 There is very little formal leave taking at a wedding reception, as in days gone by. Many of the guests leave from the dining-room and do not remain to witness the departure of the bride and the bridegroom un- less they are intimate aequaintances.
 The fashionable bridal gown of to- day is the simple one, which may be and frequently is far more costly than one laden with frills and furbelows, for a simple gown requires the hand of an artist and rich material As to fabrics, chiffon satin is very popular in summer chiffon gauge is much used.

When Angel Decora, after ten years Of
faithful effort to accommodate herself to mod
ern art, went to Washington and laid her cooo
before Francis L. Leupp Commissioner of In
olan Affairs, he was won by her plea that he
sent her to the Indian School at Carlisle Po
with special commission to revive native art
Not that the commissioner was convinced
OF Its superiority, but he believes in preservin,

Of all the hundreds # students at Carlisle
not one has been initiated into the mysteries of

Real art should be combined with utility.
said Miss Decora recently "This is why

of the peoples life, because they wish to make
artistic everything that they use, not for lucre
or fame, bur because their souls cry out for

CORNERS COAST LINE.
Important Decision Rendered Thurs
day by Judge Gary.


Columbia, Aug. Judge Ernest
Gary, of the circuit court. today rem
dered most important decision, in
volving the. right Of an interstate
railroad to have damage suits and
other cases transferred from the State
to the federal courts on the ground
that they are foreign corporations.
The case is that of W c. Geraty,
of Charleston, against the Coast Line
road for damages for over $4,000, and
the judge finds that under the consti-
tuition of this State all roads have to
be chartered under the laws Of this
State, and that the Coast Line is es-
topped from contending that it is a
foreign corporation, because if it es-
tablishes this contention it is being
operated in South Carolina unlawful
ly.
In a similar case in North Carolina
recently Judge Pritchard decided the
other way so far as North Carolina
was concerned in the case of the
Coast Line.

1t is reported at Fort Gibson and
At many other points along the

How Piutes Catch Quail.

These natives have a unique way
OF getting quail. For them there Is
no closed season, or, indeed, any
game law whatever. Seasons when
the quail come down from the noun
tains to the spring the Indians
make great preparation for their
capture.
The build bough house, with a
long slender opening in the front,
formed of tall straight sticks set
closely together. Within the house
an Indian sits concealed, holding
long timber rod, which he operates
dexterously through the narrow
opening. In the early morning when
the birds flock down for water he
picks them off, one at time, kill
ing them instantly.
There Is no report in this manner
of hunting to frighten the others
away, and the Indian often gets
enough game in a single morning
for the whole settlement.-Los An
geles Times.
