rCorresnondence Of the CALEDoNIANl
The number of totally different styles
of dress that have been brought out Tor
the summer season is an excellent thing
as if enables each woman to select the
fashion that is best suited to her face
and figure. This is to be great season
for lingerie dresses of all sorts. Swisses,
both plain and embroidered, organizes,
Persian lawn and batiste are all used,
as well as many charming silk and
cotton fabrics with which the shops
abound Pattern robes OF batiste are
employed largely to make dressy sum
mer gowns and these show openwork
embroidery done in the same or con
trasting color Sometimes the com
bination of pink and blue is found in the
embroidery on white materials, again
the pattern is floral with pink, pale blue
or yellow blossoms and foliage in
natural green tones. Pattern tiounclngs
for lingerie dresses are now shown with
colored hens, edging one side of the
houncing above which the embroidery
design is done in color. These are
among the most effective of the novel
ties and are simply an adaptation Of the
idea that found expression in the WIN
ter in the use of colored velvet and satin
hens on costumes of cloth, chiffon and
silk.
A suit Of Rajah silk shown by lead
ing house is OF one of the popular Copen-
hagen blues, and is made with a loose
halflong coat, over a beautifully cut and
hung Princess dress. The top of the
gown is sashed and cut out to display
the lace underwaist which has the
figures embroidered in dull blue shades.
Both the collar OF this and the neck of
the coat have a piping OF deep orange
velvet. Many cheap rough silks and
"near-silks' have been brought out in a
weave that attempts to initiate the real,
| but no one who can afford TO select the
best is satisfied with these easily detected
copies.
Some particularly smart white linen
suits have just been imported from Paris
embroidered in large eyelit patterns in a
deep Copenhagen blue and combined
with this design Irish crochet in blue
thread that exactly matches the color OF
the embroidery. Suits and dresses OF
this sort are very novel and the colored
embroidery on the white ground gives
them a remarkably stylish appearance
Even on the lingerie dresses soutache
braiding is employed. At private view
at a Fifth Avenue modiste's was ex-
hibted the other day a frock of very
sheer lawn with fine hand tucking con

letter of this date that you expect soon
to leave your position as bank examiner,
and know that in speaking for myself,

your duties have always been performed
courteously and and at the same time
carefully, fearlessly and in a way to
command the confidence of the business
public.
The banking fraternity, among whom
you have made many warm friends, one
Of whom take pleasure in counting my

Frank O. French is the auther of the
latest coon song, Hannibal Hope"
1t is laughable ragtme ditty about a
moke who played the steam calliope in a
circus. His girl, Mandy Green, tells of

"You may talk about your opera stars
But they don't shine for me.
Angels playing on golden harps
Why, they amt one, two, threel
And am willing to bet that you will never
forget
Such music is made,
When Hannibal Hope plays the steam calliope
In the circus street parade"
The melody is by Lou Hirsch and the
song is Published by the F. B. Haviland
Co., of New York An excellent phono-
graph reproduction, by Arthur Collins,
introducing circus parade, band, steam
piano, etc, is included among the Edison

Museum Notes.

The Fairbanks Museum has recently
had a request for a description of its
institution and work, from DR. A. b.
Meyer, who has been for years the
director of the Royal Museum in Ores
den, Germany, and who is an authority
on museum affairs and quoted all over
the world. DR.. Meyer learned some
thing OF the Fairbanks Museum from a
paper concerning it given at the meeting
of the American Museums association
last year and has expressed an especial
interest in the educational possibilities
Of the institution.
The April number of the Popular
Science Monthly contains an article by
Miss Gallup of Brooklyn on the chill
dren's museum as an education, and in
course of the article reference is made to
the Fairbanks Museum as an excellent
example of museum leadership in a small
center.
The bird walks were begun last week

link and ovenbird May IL chimney

A Rare and Valuable Historical Yer
mont Book Reproduced.

The publishing house of II. R. Hunt
ting & Co., of Springfield Mass, has
just brought out a splendid reprint of
the Burning of Royalton," written by
Zadock Steele, together with narrative
of his captivity first printed in Montpe-
lier in 1918. These publishers have done
a good thing tor ali lovers of Indian
stories and especially of Vermont history.
The terrible onslaught by Indians led by
Frenchmen started for Newbury, VT,
from Canada but when in the vicinity OF
Montpelier met two or three hunters
from Newbury, who by their glowing
accounts of the strong garrison OF sol
diers at Coos succeeded in turning the
party away from Newbury, but their
thirst for blood and plumber was not to
be so easily assuaged, hence the de
struction of Roy October 16, 1850.
This was the most terrible and fatal
attack suffered by Vermont in all its
history, therefore that the book is now
brought down to $3.50 it should be-
come household favorite.
Not long ago this firm brought out
The Captivity of Mrs. Johnson" with
an introduction by Horace w. Bailey.
The next in the series will be THE Re
deemed Captive Returned to Zion, "
which is the story of the sack of Deer
field Mass, in 1904 when Rev. John
Williams, grandfather of Samuel, Yer
mont's first historian, and great-grand-
father of Charles, Vermont's governor
and chiefjustice, was with his family and
parish taken up the Connecticut river,
over the Green Mountains, captiyes to
Canada. The wife of Ex-Gov. Samuel
Pingree of Hartford, VT. is a grand
daughter of Zadock Steele, the author OF
the Burning of Royalton. This is Yer
| mont history pure and simple

washed and dried his dishes
~ with amazing celebrity. In a
trice they stood in shining
rows on the trim dresser, and the
gaunt form Of the captain was bent
over his little cook stove, while his
great brown hands were plying the
backing brush vigorously. When the
stove shone like mirror and the tea
kettle fairly sparkled with cleanliness.
the captain swept out the kitchen and
hung the broom upon its accustomed
hook, with sigh of relief He lighted
an old pipe and sat down on the door
step with his back against the Intel
and his keen blue eyes fixed across the
bay to where the Ledge light shone
like large red star
1t was after sunset, and the pale
pink and primrose of the afterglow
were fading from the western sky.
Captain Ebenezer was lost in reverie.
His blackened pipe went out all IN
noticed and hung from his fingers list
lessly, while the old sailor whistled
softly to himself. Suddenly he slapped
his knee and burst into hearty laugh.
"Ho, hop' he chuckled. II guess that

me see. Now, the Wilder Banks says,

hearty Captain Ebenezer had tired Of
his long, lonesome years of widowh hood
and had determined to seek another
companion to share his snug cottage
on the beach and the proceeds of his
fishing smack the Saucy Liz.
"Now," unused the captain, there's
Miss Phoebe, as trim little craft as
ever sailed the seas. She's good ma
tured and good cook. and guess she
amt afeared of the water. A sailors
wife ought to be able to sail across the
bay without gettin' yaller about the

Captain Ebenezer had sighed after
| Miss Phoebe Lummis for many
months. That little lady's utter indif-
ference to his society had chilled his
ardent sailor heart, and he had
changed his matrimonial course in the
direction of the Widow Banks brown
house on the high hill overlooking the
bay. Captain Ebenezer had made up
his mind to marry. and marry be
