Feasibility of Handsome Wnter Towers. "The advantnge of making water works, pumping stations and water tow ers ornamental will Ik generally con ceded in till intelligent communities," Se wrote Mr, Henry O. Meyer, editor of Thu New Yerk Luginecring and Iliiilding llecerd, home time age in announcing thu ejiening of a competition for designs in which these btructures feUeuld be treated with architectural skill. More than tifty responses enme from all parts of the United States, and cash prizes were awarded te the four architects who were thought by the judges te have united most successfully thu demands of utility with the lines of beauty. Sotne Miipiis ing revelations were made us te the jkis.sI hility of adorning ugly iron cylinders w itli graceful garb. The first prize went te a Milwaukee competitor, whose design displayed an octageuul casing of stone for the cylinder at ence handseme and imposing. It may be accepted as the chief lessen of the contest that water towers can Ik) made enjeyable additions te the landscape for nlieut the satne sum It costs te put up the unsightly sttuctuies at present in vogue. A Itemaikahle Prophecy. Itcv, Alexander Lamb has written a pamphlet which is rather remarkahlH, seeing that it comes from thu hands of a minister. It is entitled "Daughters Who Prophesy," and advocates remov ing all disabilities en account cf sex in the church, and letting women have freely the Bame rights men de, te preach and held church efllces. He says it all artificial restrictions are removed, then women will find their own place ir the churches which they de mero than any body else te keep alive, whether the work be healing, teaching, prophesying or "speaking with tongues," as in thu apostolic day. - Levers of olives may be Interested In knowing that the fruit will be an ex pensive luxury this year.

Sema of tha Ketad "Financiers" Who Farad flamptuentljr Tlbled the Hart la rust Times Tlia Unswerving loyalty of a Female flarvant. A prison Is a convent without Oed; Poverty, chastity, obedience Its precepts are. The man who wrote these lines never heard of Ludlow Street jail In New Yerk city, or he would have modified Ills po etical statement te n considerable de gree. The liars and belts of the place have held fairly well In the case, of peer debtors, but recent developments would seem te show that pcople with plenty of cash have been able te get out whenever they desired; that Is at least temporarily and under guard of a well feed eOlccr. The fact that serious abuses existed within the walls of the prison, and that the wealthy Inmates had many privi leges denied te their impecunious neigh bors, catne te light recently through the medium of two investigations, ene un dertaken by The New Yerk Herald, di rected toward the workings of the jail, and the ether by n committee of the New Yerk Btale senate, directed toward the general management of the sheriff's of fice. As a result, Warden Keating and several subordinates have been indicted by it grand jury for extortion, the ac ceptance of brihes nnd ether offenses ngalnst the laws. Ilefore the cxjwsure enme which re sulted in the arrest and removal of Keat ing and the rest of the accused efllcials the two liest kneun prisoners in Ludlow Street jull with Henry 8, Ives and his partner, Stayner. A littie ever a year age these two men made ene of the most sensational failures of the age. They se cured control of the Cincinnati, Hamil ton and Dayton railway, and upon their LUDLOW STIIKET JAIL. "business" methods lieing revealed "went te smash" te the tuue of $20,000,000 lia bilities nntl very few nvuilable assets. The legal proceedings instituted ended in their being held te answer for their mimleedsin bends of $250,000 each. They could net llnd sureties, and for fourteen months were supposed te be living thet lifn of ordinary prisoners nt Ludlow Street. In March of thisycarthonmeunt of their hall was reduced; they secured liendsmcn and walked out. The testimony of Ives, which lie gave reluctantly befere the senate investigat ing committee, indicated that he and his partner had net suffered much from their long Incaiceratien. Hut the privileges they enjoyed had cost money, and lets of it. Fer permission te remain out of jail three days under guard until they had arranged their privnte affairs they paid $1,000. Beard in the prison cost them $250 a week each; use of the parlor, 10nn hour, anil permission te go te a funeral accompanied by a deputy, $.10. In a general way, nnd counting ene thing with another, Ives swere that his meals end privileges at Ludlow Street jail cost him $10,000 n year. "Lodging," he add ed, "was thrown In." Slnce Ludlow Street jail was erected In 1803 it has had several noted pcople for "guests" whose records mero than match thoie made by Ives and Stayner. lless Tweed was the chief among thehe, though at a later date Fish and Ward, who ruined (Jen. Grant, enme near wresting from him his bad eminence. All of them fared sumptuously, but Ward perhaps best of all, for, besides material comforts, his nature demanded urtibtie nutriment. He occupied tne rooms en the ground fleer, magnificently furnished with lounges, sofas, ottomans, carpets and a piano. That the outside view might harmouize with the elegance of the interior, he caused n flower garden te te laid out beneath his window. Ward's iartner, Fish, get along with less gorgeous surroundings. A fellow prisoner who kept n diary wrete of him: "Fish bus net get a lamp yet. He pro pre bers Ixirrewlng te buying," The same chronicler in a later ertry expreased ad miration for Fish's nerve: "The old man had just been sentenced te ten years in state prison. Seme ene wishing te sym pathise with him said: " 'Mr. Fish, 1 am 6erry te hear of your sentence.' ONE Or THE CELLS. " 'My dear lmy,' replied Fish, 'de net mention it. I have been u feel nnd I must Miller for it.' "He gae McDonald a bunch of flow flew era. I hate bome of the flowers. He shook hands with every ene befere he went down stairs." Of quite another eert than nny of theso mentioned, but eipiallv famous in her way, was IleeUy Jenes, who went te Ludlow Street jail for contempt of court. Ilecky was the tye of a faithful servant. On his deathbed her master told her that disputes nbeut prejierty would certainly fellow his dissolution, nnd dtew from the willing woman the promUe that she would net reveal family matters nlTect ing the threatened litigation. The law suits came, ilecky was called nsu witness and told the judge she would net answer the questions put te her till the day of the rosuirectieu, The judge was compelled te elder her incarcera tion, and wliilein jull she was the heroine of the hour and the recipient of every attention from aristocratic ladies who were delighted te honor her loyalty. She never told what she knew, but in due course of timebecurnl rele.ise, de spite her contumacy. As mentioned Mere, Ludlow Street Jail was built tu 18C2. It was, nnd is jet te a certain extent, it debtor's prison, but people may be confined there for ether causes, such as non-payment of alimony, contempt of court, breach of preml.-e and offenses ugaiustthe United States laws In the way of illegal use of the mails and the like. There are sixty two cells in the jail arranged in three 3 W llnSasMai t&&S -s -" tiers, all above thn ground noer. ine latter Is devoted te the reception room and apartments which In former days were parceled, out te wealthy "guests" who could afford te pay royally for their accommodations.

Tha Influenea Hack of the annate Itllt en Tills Subject Is Tliat of the Maume Valley Henumental Association Au In tarcstlng Chapter of History. (Special Correspondence. Cincinnati, April 8. The introduction In the United States senate seme days age by Mr. Sherman of a bill calling for an appropriation for the preservation of certain old forts along the ilaumee river, and for the erection of monuments en tile sites of these already destroyed te make room for the spread of the cities that have grown up around them, opens up an Interesting chapter in the history of that part of the old northwest terri tory. The influence back of the hill is the Maumee VallcyMeuumenUil associa tion, nn organization with headquarters at Teledo, whose president is Itutherferd D, Hayes, who was elected te succeed the late Chief Justice Watte, who was president at the tlme of his death. The secretary is Jehn C. Ix-e, of Teledo. The vice presidents are Hen. H, S. ltoh lteh ltoh ertsen, Fert Wayne; Hen. 8. II. Cutely, Delta; Hen. It. C. Immen, Teledo. It.

The association has lieen engaged for live years in efforts te secure possession of the most important historical points, such ns forts and battle, grounds in thu Muttmee valley, nnd te have them marked hy stlttahla monuments. It has been du elled that the following nre worthy of commemeration: Fert Industry, the situ of Teledo; Fert Miami, near Maumee City; Fert Defiance, at Dellance; Fert Meigs, near IVrryshurg; Fert Wayne, nt Fert Wayne.

Afler the defeat of (Jen. St. Clair, Nev. i, 1790, the Indians, inflamed hy hatred and encouraged hy hiicivbws, committed the most outrageous depredations and the grossest barbarities en the settlets. Unsuccessful campaigns against them only stimulated their carnage, nnd in 17H3 den. Antheny Wayne was charged with abating it. Hu was n cautious soldier, who waited for advantage and then made lield dashes for victory. His great vigilance wen him thu iKime of "Black Snake" from the Indians, mid the vigor of his lighting when he was ussuicd of the advantage nuether of "Hurricane." Fer the same trait he had long been known as Mad An An teony. Gen. Wnyue advanced from Fert Washington (Cincinnati), te Fert Green- ille (Greenville, Ohie), w hence he sent a detachment te take possession of the position lest by St. Clair. This w-:is ac complished and a nuw feit built called Fet t l'ecevery. Wnvne then continued his adinuce against the tillage of the Miami tribe.aud en Aug. 0, 1701, leached thu coullueiice of the Auglaize and the Miami of the Lakes (Maumee) rivers, where he erected Feil Dellance, giving it n iiatna nppropilate te the conditions of its building and destined te peipctu ity in the name of the present citveuthu site. Thu traces of this fort nre still well de fined. It is situated in the angle of the Maumee and Auglaize livers, and has leen subjected te semu injury by the eiosieu of the waters, which have washed away poitieiwof thu neithein and cast em salients, and tha point is slowly ie cediug. It is proponed te mink the spot by a grauitu monument, with a suitable Inscription, for which it is estimated ..'.iWOuill lie Bufllclent. Frem Feit Defiance Gen. Wayne, un der Instructions from Washington, of fered the Indians peuce. In a council of Indians, LittluTnrtle, a chief who is said te have been possessed of statesmanship that would have wen him fame in diplo matic circles of Lureieau courts, advised Ik-ace. His counsel were overthrown hy thu younger chiefs, who heisted of previous icteries. Tuitlu cautioned tliem against the new warrior that the Father nt Washington had sent against them, but they were obstinate and voted for war. Gen. Wayne advanced and pitched his camp near Water ille. Thu next day (Aug. 20, 1701) hegavuhattlu te the Indians, whoueie intrenched iehiud some high trees that had been prostrated by ti tornado, w heiice the name of thu Battle of Fallen Tim liers. The Indians were eerwhclmingly defeated, and Gen. Weyne putsued them several miles, even under thu guns of the Uiitlsh Fert Miami. Gen. Wuj ue passed by the fort of Mi ami, then gai riseued by the British, and moved down the river te the mouth of Swan creek, where hu constructed a mil itary fort, which, owing te the industry of his army in itsconstructieu, lie named Fert Industry. This fort Gen, Wayne garrisoned nnd it was occupied for a number of years. Its dimensions were about 200 hy 150 feet, ami its site is new In the busiest part of the city of Teledo, at the in tersection of Menreo street nnd Sum mit aenue. All trace of it wns long age obliterated, hut the fact of its loca tion nt the point indicated is preserved in the designation of a block of buildings named Fert Industry block. It Is pro-pe-cd te mark the (.pet hy the erection of a grauite monument with a suitable iueciiptieu. If the city will gie the privilege for thu use of tha street corner for the purpose, it is estimated the mon ument can be put in position for $5,000. Fert Miami, which was first established as a trading pest In 1C80, and occupied for military purjieses subsequently by the British, and abandoned by them aftvr the treaty of 1705, is the eldest of all these historical points. The north eastern angle of the work and a nor- ""ih SI n (-h f i-rtJtt Duiuu j? i tien et cacti adjoining curtain, together l b.l rertT INDUSTRY, with the greater part of tha demilune in advance of the northern front, sua still in a fair state of preservation. The river front lias been destroyed. Tha site is part et the plot of Maumee City, cccupying nlwut 0 68-100 acres. Part of it is orchard. It is estimated that the site can be purchased for $3,500, and that a $5,000 monument in granite will suffice te mark the location of the fort. The area embraced by the battle of Fallen Timbers is about twelve and one third acres, which it is proposed te pur chase, at an estimated cost of $100 an ' acre, and te erect nt a conspicuous point n grnnite monument, no as te bring the total cost within $5,000. Uien the completion of Fert Industry Gen. Wayne led his army back up the river te the village of the Mlamls, and there, en Oct, 22, a fort having been completed, fifteen rounds of cannon were fired and the fort named Fert Wayne. It was located en the highest land in the state of Indiana, and this has given the name of the "Summit City" te the city new there. Wayne then returned te Greenville, where he represented the United States in the treaty negotiations iu 1705. A considerable portion of the site of the old fort belongs te the city of Fert Wayne, the remainder being new occu pied by the New Yerk, Chicago and St. Iieuis railroad. Except the well notrace of the fort new exists, and the part of the site net occupied by the railroad or the city streets Is reduced te a small tri angle, which Is inclesed by an iron fence. It is proposed te erect within this tri angle a monument similar te theso sug gested for the ether points of interest, The ether, two points determined en for commemoration, Fert Meigs and the lut-in-Hay burial ground, belong te the period of the war of 1812, when the Mau meo valley became again the thcatre et military operations. The here of this cam paign wns Gen. William II. Harrison, who in February, 1813, erected and es tablished Fert Meigs, ten milcsfrem Fert Industry. Wliile the work was In prog ress an unsuccessful attack was made by Tecumseh and again in July following. Gen. Harrison and Tecumseh had first met fit nrms at the battle of Fallen Tim bers, and they met again here, each com manding. Tecumseh is described as "ene of the most splendid specimens of his tribe, celebrated for their physical pro portions nnd line forms tall, athletic and manly, dignified, graceful, the beau ideal of nn Indian chief," The victory was witli Gen. Ilartisen, and Tecumseh was killed during this war. The outlines nntl works of Fert Mciga are nearly all prescrcd, nnd no plow has been per mitted te run ever the graves of the dead. It is embraced in the farm of Michael and Timethy Hayes, who for the twenty j ears of their ownership have net permitted nny desecration of the graves, of which there nre several hun dred, almost wholly unmarked. They contain thu lemainsef theso who were killed in the battle, who died during its occupation nnd theso who were killed in the attack en the British batteries at Fert Miami, across the river. The area of laud necessary te Include the fort and the graves is nbeut flfty-fie acres, valued at $100 nn acre. The works themselves are iu such a geed state of preservation as te constitute their own best monument, nnd it is proposed only topurchnse the land, erect one large mon ument in Feit Meigs, te cost $10,000, nnd TOUT WAYNE IN 1701. three ethers at $5,000 each te mark the burial places, making n total of $.'10,500. Fert Meigs was named in honor of Gen, Meigs, but he suggested as a name for the village that in after years sprung up just east the name of l'errysburg, in commemoration of thu here of the naval victory en Lake Erie. After this victory Commedoro Ferry burled his dead en the island of Putin-Bay, new nn important pert en Like Ei ie. The burial ground is about sixty feet from the shore of thu lake, and iu its center stands a willow tree, the whole inclesed by a chaiu fence, new in a fallen and dilapidated condition. It is included in an area conveyed by J. De IMvcra te the corporation in trust for the public, te insure it againnt obliteration. It is proposed te erect a new iron fence and a grauitu monument. Gee.

Harris Tells About Its Three New Clubs. BROOKLYN, KOCIIF.STER.HTRACUSG DedaetleM Drawn from Their Makcnp as te new Ttiey Ar Likely te Rank la the sei Osn. Brlnkar, tl Baddlng Mag- NewYerk stabs has three teams tn the American Association one at Brooklyn, one at Rochester and one at Hyraeuse. When It was first announced that the Association would be represented In these cities, there was a geed deal of fun mads of their chances et getting teams that would make any show ing. Many et the jokers seemed te Imagine that net one of the three cities would hare any license te aspire te' the pennant or even te a place in the first dlvUlen. Tha jokers have since then taken te the weeds. They underestimated the hustling qualities and the financial resources et Messrs. Kennedy, Pow ers and Prnzcr, the rexx;ctlve managers for Brooklyn, Rochester and Syracuse. Manager Kennedy's Brooklyn team will be made up of Rclrmlngnr, Herman l'ltz, Frank Bewes and Jimmy Tey for catchers; Jack Lynch, Htevn Toek-, J, V. rowers nnd several untrained "kids" for pitchers. Thn hiflvM consists of Billy O'Brien, first base; Jee Ocr hardt, second base; l'itzer Ocbs.Jihlrd base; Frank Fennel Iy, short step and captain, Thu outfielders am bailey, lVUz and Simen. With' the exception et Powers nnd Uchs all et thetu men are known nationally, ami they are pretty apt te give a geed account et them selves In the field. Their journalistic man ager, Jim Kennedy, has had experience, net as a manager of ball plajers, but In similar lines, and is fully cqulpiicd with the qualities that go te mnke up tlie successful baseball manager. The new Brooklyn club will have a pretty hard tlme, because it will be placed between two fires, and j et I expect te see Kennedy and his partners make money, in spite of the handicaps. In the first place he has a very geed team and ene that will mnke a fairly geed fight. It ought net te de worse than sixth, and may de hotter if its pitchers turn out well. Sec ondly, It will have a twcnty-flve cent tariff, and thirdly, it will have the advantnge of Sunday games. At present the Broekl)n Americans conflict twonty-sevon times with the League and Brotherhood, but Manager Kennedy is arranging certain changes that will cut down the nimilier te fifteen. It will be seen that Manager Kennedy's msitien with a low tariff Is net a boil ene. There are a great raatiy people In Brooklyn w he will net give up fifty cents for a I ml I game; some of them tiecause they cannot afford, ami Mime of them tiecause they hnve been in the hjlbii, of seeing first class ball for a quarter and cannot or will net understand why they should glve any mero. Kennedy Is very apt te l a winner If his team plays geed avcrugn ball, and doesn't drop down te tlie tail end at the very start. And whnt has Manager Powers get In the way of a team at Rochester! Well, ene big argument Is the man who doesn't play, P. 1. himself, or, asovery one calls him, Tat Pow ers, lie is a manager whose shrewdness and ability have raised him up from the ranks. He handles players with n skill that produces great results. He has, I think, get a better team than Kennedy, and is pretty sure te land thorn in the first division, and pessll1y finish ns geed as third. His thrce catchers are Jimmy McOuirc, the ex-leaguer; I). J. McKoeugh nnd 1). L. Burke. All these are geed men, McGulre being Al. Rebert B.irr, J. J. Fitzgerald and J. Wells will de the pitching. Tlie latter Is an experiment, but highly recommended. Powers tells me that he will prove a wonder, which means that Pat has seen htm at work, and that he has mero than ordinary premise. Beb Burr wns with Rochester last year nnd was formerly a League pitcher with the Washington team. Beb and I were boys to te to gethor In Washington, where we both saw the light of day. I can recollect that nt school he was a terror en speed pitching, and he has i etained the trult. He will de geed work for Rochester. Fitz-jr-niliHs compara tively unkuenn nationally, but he made geed showing at Wilkebarre, and Powers thinks him u ttayer. The infield consists of Tem O'Brien, Billy Oreenwoed, Jim Kuewles nud Mair I'liillijis, It Is n geed one, and se Is tlie outfield, where Harry Lyens, "Handy" Orilllu nnd Temmy Sheiller will leek after files nnd chase long hits. All of theso men nre batters of mero ability than tlie average Rochester this year furnishes n magnate who will be heard from later if all accounts are correct. He ts Uen. Henry Brinker, p'res ldent of the club and the new vice president of the American Association. Uen. Brinker has grit, ns his career shows. A native of Mecklenburg, Germany, he emigrated te America w hen a uiru boy. He did errands alieut the decks nnd finally lioeaiuo an nttache et a butcher shop. Then he weut into the produce business and saved his earnings. Soen he bought a fctall at the Washington market ami liegau business for himself. He rondo money, tee. He still onus that stall and draws un iueeiuu from ic. During the war he made a fortune as contractor for army supplies. He served In tlie state militia as colonel of tha Kifty-feurth regiment nnd took part in active service. At the cIemi of the wnr he commanded an nrtillery company. He went te Rochester nud has become ene of its most substantial citizens. Hu is it director in the Reme, Watertown nnd Ogdensburg rnllread; Is Interested in several broueiies and owns a distillery for making spirits from fruit. His wealth is estimated nt a quarter of a million. Self made men nre tenacious, and Uen. Brinker may lie rolled en te stick te baseball a long time and leso a gejd deal of meney befere he crit's quits. Syracuse will have a team that is in seme respects an Improvement en any it has had for Beveral years. Tlie new manager-magnate there is Oeerge K. Frazer, a young man with lufticieut finnnclil lacking te carry out his plans and an abundance et nervous energy that makes such a slew man as Ven der Alie limply shudder. Mr, Frazer is entirely new te tinsehall, but if hustle and energy will iu he ought te de se. He has this team te help deit. (Irani llriggs and Put Dealy, catchers; leth geed ineu. Bnggs made n geed show ing at Worcester nud Uealy has been a Na tional league catcher who ene time was classed iu A. Teby Ljeus, J. T. Keefe. Dan Casey, Bud Ramsey and Joe MeCsbe will leek after tha pitching, and they will render a geed account of themselves. If Casey's arm Is nil right he will be one of the stars of the Association. Lack of ceurage only killed him as a leaguer. McQ.iery, lb.; Clnlds, 8h.; Joe Uattln, ob., and McLaughlin, s. s., is the infield, with Fred Ely, W d. Wiight and Mike Bergau hi the outfield. Taken altogether, New Yerk state is well re presented In tlie Association. This year no ene of them can be expected te fluUh better than fourth or fifth, Is-cause it is their first jour, and because Columbus, Ipuisville and the Athletics have well organized clubs Itli very strenj tennis.

What St. Leuis aud Teledo will de is at present an unknown quantity. Beth clubs have premising teams. Teledo has the best of the two. Indeed, Teledo's team Is liable te hustle everybody.

OLIVE HARPER WRITES OF THE LATEST STYLES IN HEAD WEAR. The cSewnU.t Ones Are Said te Be tke Meat Becoming, anil They Are Certalalf tha Meat Btill.h A Fretly Msw CeuesO Described. (Special Correspondence.) New Yerk, April 3. Llke Tennyson's lnoek, the bonnet gees en forever, and though this season it is net exactly Reek ing new heights te surmount, it still maintains its own wltt regard te price nnd becemingncss. I must admit that I don't think the lower shapes of this season half as chie or becoming aa theaa we were all abusing se. Still, when you happen te see a pretty face surmounted by a wrcatli of tulle and blue ferget-me-nets just the color of a pretty pair of eyes, veu nre about ready te give iu that the present styles are certainly net ugly. IIUAIIT DltKAKKUS. The newest and perhaps the most sty lish of the bonnets are the crownless ones. They have a Bert of twisted coro net of tulle or crape, lace or velvet, somewhat in the form of a horseshoe, leaving an open space through which the hair shows and where the fancy comb stands up aggressively. Strings of rib bon te match tie under the chin. Many of these crownless bonnets have the whole front made of smalt flowers like daisies, buttercups, lilies et the val ley or ferget-me-nets or small rosebuds, and the strings match the color of the flowers. These bonnets will be mero worn in theatres, et receptions, for car riage and church than en the premenade, though they are net prohibited there cither. One lovely bonnet lias n foundation of pink silk lace, rising in puffs quite high nbove the forehead, ami nestling among the puffs of lncc nnd under the sprays of apple blossoms is a small blackbird. The strings nre of black velvet ribbon. A very handseme bonnet for a matron was shown, made with a full bandeau of prune colored velvet.This stuck full of littie geld nnd jet pins. The crown was open, only covered with dotted net, the dots outlined with geld thread. There was a lace butterfly, wired stiff and worked with purple chenille and geld thread, and prune velvet strings. The whole is n rich and elegant bonnet, and must have cost the milliner as much aa $2, se that the price, $23, was really quite reasonable. Chip, in black, brown, dark blue and beige colors, nre very fashionable for young ladies, nnd they are of every im aginable form, only that they have rath er low crowns. Ribbons, feathers and flowers nre nil used as trimmings, and all are in vogue. Hatpins are really quite objects of art and handseme enough for breeches. Transparent hats of lace will lie very popular, as, indeed, they ought te b, being light, cool nnd most becoming. The frame is made of wire, ever which is drawn a single thickness of black net. The lace, which can be plain Brussels net or dotted or figured lace, is then shirred en loosely ever crown and brim, the edge of the brim having cither a deuble ruflle of net or a gathered fall of figured lace. Strings of lace or tulle are fastened te the back and are brought down in front te tie. The trimming of flowers is thrown carelessly en the crown and al lowed te fall forward in a natural posi tion. A pretty new caprice is te have a home toilet or tea gown made of jet .black China crepe, with the front of pale pink, blue or cream crepe. The novelty con sists in using black crepe for the gown. It, however, is a lovely, soft fabric, glossy 5Ss. A VIIETTY NEW CArKICE. nnd rich, nnd it drapes in the clinging folds that are new the style. The pretty tea gown here presented has the prin cesse kick in the black China crepe, and the front is in shell pink China crepe, with the edge embroidered in black and geld. A pretty pink pearl buckle and Hots of ribbon ndd elegance te the grace ful drapery of the front. I saw another of these new black crepe dresses which luid an embroidery all around in key pattern in silver. Anether, again, had a trimming of ruby velvet applique all around the train and up the front, which was of ruby crepe. The material 1ms always beeu known, but it new takes the place of a new discovery, as it lias never been made up into gowns before. OuynTlAnrna. The Dllllcnlly of Concealment. The world is generally considered a pretty big aggregation of land and water, but it doesn't seem large enough te fur nish a man with a hiding place. Re cintly Frank McGowan, one of Theruai A, Edisen's most vnlued assistants, dis npcnrcd, and it was thought that he hud la-en foully dealt with or met death by accident. His family and friends mourned him until the ether day, when they were shocked te learn that he was living in the United States of Colombia, under conditions which showed that it was net his intention te return.
