THE SEASONS FURS.

The fashionable fur of the winter is distinctly sealskin. Women who can afford it will of course buy Alaska seal and those who can not will wear the dyed muskrat, which is often called Hudson seal. This skin has had all the long hairs plucked out and then been dyed by a new process. The effect is so good that even a connoisseur can not, a few feet away, tell whether a coat is made of muskrat or the genuine seal, and the fact that c. c. Shayne & Company have brought out va riety of long coats of this new fur for carriage, street or evening wear, determines it's value beyond all ques- tion, as no inferior or unreliable fur ever finds a footing with this well known house.

How Fighting Bob" Kept Discipline
 On Man-o'-war.

As flag officer, have always re- quired of the commissary officer of each ship a bill of fare, prepared a week in advance, stating just what would be served at each meal This, forwarded through his commanding of ficer, came to me and after examina- tion was passed to the paymaster of the fleet for filing To be sure that this bill of fare was followed, and the food properly prepared and served, frequently went on board some ship of the fleet without any previous notice and directed the captain to have a table set for me on the mess deck among the men, and there, in company with the members of my staff and the ship, took my dinner. The meal was captain and commissary officer of the served to us exactly as it was to the men and nothing was permitted on the table which they did not have, is the declaration of Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans, whose navy articles in Hamp tons Broadway Magazine are the sen satiOn of the magazine world
 On one occasion I took the president to dine in this way with the crew of o Siips anu iidu d llitSl joyable dinner. The captain was shocked that the president had no nap kin to wipe his mouth on, and proposed to send for one, but assured him that would not permit one on the table. This custom of mine like some other of my performances, would have turn ed the captain of fifty years ago white headed. However that may be, it con- vinced the men, and also the commits sary officer, that intended to see that those under my command should be properly fed, and the first effect was to stop a vast amount of growing and diseontentment in the fleet.

The election yesterday showed the advantage of having a registration up to date. The general registration two years ago and the various sup plemental registrations since contain a vast roll of names not two of which represent actual voters what ever they might have represented in the past. Beside the inconvenience of such a registration it offers op- portunities for fraud which must be very tempting to the dishonest parti- san. We have not been informed that any advantage was taken of the opportunity but that is not to the credit of the great register.

MUFFs, scARFs AND RUFFs.

In small furs the general favorites are black lynx, pointec fox. mink and sable. There never was season when so many fancy effects in furs prevailed. All the most fashionable muffs are rug shape, and there are dozens of different designs shown, some square, some irregular and some pleated.
 Neck pieces are either very short in ruff shape or long in the pelerine style.
