'Stp: THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, SATURDAY, -JUSTE . 1891 9 MIR SUMMER GIRLS To Be Chic and Captivating Follow the Fashions. Must STILES TO SUIT ALL YAEIETIES. Some of the Xewest Wrinkles Pictured and Cleverly Described. A GLANCE AT THE TEOPEK COSTUMES One of the prettiest new articles of head xrear is the Cleopatra capote. It is made up in beaded and spangled net, encircled with a wreath of golden daisies, and adorned with, a black osprey feather powdered with gold and a large jet snake with ruby eyes. Two schemes of headdress are .very attractive. One is Greek in pattern and has Cleopatra Capote, strings ot turquois encir cling the classical top coil, which is finished off with the new Diana knot, composed of three light rolls, which orna ment the front. Another classic headdress for the ballroom is composed of a curled front and a circular twist, surrounded witn jewel filets, and through which is thrust a long fancy pin, either in tortoise-shell c gold. A most important feature of our henu gear is the toque or Becamier turban, mod! fied in outline and form. It is true, but the fashion having once crept in who can fore tell where it will end. The first step, which, contrary to tradition, cost us noth ing was the double roll of coiled velvet with a thread-lace butterfly, flower or tiny plume in front, but emboldened by succes the milliners have now left off the velvet and present their customers with a small handful of briers, a ten-inch twist of lace and a rose, andaskyou?15 for this "lovely" bonnet with its top minus. Taffeta silks in changeable effects are in high favor. They are made in charming summer gowns, skirts and fancy waists, and they are also used as frills and other trim mings for plain neutral silk and fine un patterned wool dresses and also pale-hued silk ctaminesand canvas fabrics. Soma of the spring costumes are not ex actly admirable. Others are designed in the original to be so, but they are spoiled in the wearing. "Why will any woman wear a lace fichu or half-collar in the street cars, or don these articles with a trav cling gown and toque? "What is their idea in sewing a bit of fine lisse inside the col lar -of a cloth coat, so that its delicate bonier JBaU Coiffure. of pearls is visible above? Are spectators to regard this decoration as frillery or jew elry? Think of the chaotic notions" on dress that must be entertained by a woman who wears a stuff gown, diamond earrings, a velvet mantle, a pair of common-tense congress (long-session) gaiters and a grav serge jockey cap. Sandshoes were noted many times last summer along with China silk dresses, ornate black and gold bonnets and expensive "picture" hats. In fact, the architectural idea which ought to run through every complete costume seemed sadly lacking In many dwellers by the sea. Judging often bv their dress, one concluded that their heads were off for a yachting trip, their shoulders going to a swell recep tion, their chamois-covered hands fixed for clipping rose bushes and their feet ready for a -uniting match or a mountain ramble. Any woman who lives in the country and who is not too stout should be able to mount a horse from the ground nnaided. If she attains to be anything of an equestrienne she should require no more assistance than a man, though she is handicapped a little by reason 01 u?r van. one snouia lower the stirrup sufficiently to reach it with the left foot, then placing the right hand on the upper pomiiit'l and the left hand on the lower pommel, by a sidewise motion, right ihoulder forward, s-pring lightly from her richt foot and swine: herself into'the saddle- Once there she should take her foot out of the Ftirrupj place her right thigh in its proper position above the pommel and ad just her dress. The stirrup is shortened from the right side by pulling up the strap again. A good dancer will soon learn to mount. It is curious when one stops to reflect over it, to find how few women have proved capable of tu-n'jg their story-telling talent into successful dramatic form. Hundreds have made money and reputation as novelists, but. with the exception of Mrs. Bur- nett,none of the sex holds firct lvinlr- nc n Titq.pti-rirrl.f y Y1iT,ie-v5iavemaaet'ieenort XVtJto ) t'm and fcg3'11! but, save i " 5 ; 'for a few urettv drawin? room dramas and cur- . it ?.7. i turn raisers, the result tjrea jLeuuf..la;s been failure. The wife of a Western Governor and Miss Merington. the brilliant professor of Greek at the Sew York formal College, are said to-have broken the record and will essay a couple of strong plays next autumn. Con structive ability and terse, forcible dialogue are qualities the feminine dramatist has lacked thus far. Miss Mary E. "Wilkins, who"-e inimitable sketches cf New England life have won her fame, both in this country and in England, is the author of a power ful traircdy dealing with witchcraft in early jivs among tiie Puritans. "Whether this will prove available for practical presenta tion has yet w be seen. The part that Lady Macdonald plays in her husband's life is not to be set forth' in a few nordJ, says the Ladia' Home Journal. All that Lauy Bcaconsfield was to the Con servative Premier of England, Lady Mac donald has been and is to the Conservative Premier of Canada. If any one on earth knows his mind it is she. Their under standing of each other is complete, and their matrimonial felicity unruffled. How much Canada owes to Lady Macdonald for the help she has given her greatest states man only the Premier himself can fitly esti mate. The wife of thePremierisafrequent attendant at the sittings of Parliament, the best seat in the Speaker's gallery being always reserved for her, and no important debate takes place that she does not follow to the final vote, though the daylight may be dimming the electric lights. Lady Macdonald is tall and tawny, with warm tiutv glowing in her cheeks. Her abundant hrir a few vcars ago became white as snow, and now makes a wonderfully be coming aureole about her high, broad fore head. Energy and determination are un mistakably stamped upon a countenance whose habitual expression is somewhat grave. Yet when moved to laughter, the -h hole face lights up until every trace of care and anxious thought vanishes from it. In the art of conversation she has nothing to learn. She is an omnivorous reader, and not only reads, but digests and assimilates her reading, while a retentive memory keep.' at command all that she acquires. She forms her o-m opinion about the sub jects of the day, and never hesitates to ex press them in clear, concise terms. To the lull extent of her time and ability she co operates in all religious and philanthropic enterprises and associations that commend themselves to her approval. Neither does she bold aloof from balls, dinners, recep tions and other fatiguine featnres of social life at the Canadian capital, -nor disdain to MM mw& w. w. r-A take a livclvpersonal interest in the fas cinating subject of dress. "When Parliament is insession her draw ing room on Saturdays is filled with an ever-changing flow of visitors rrom 3 o'clock until dinner time. Yet none of them fail to receive a warm clasp of the hand, a bright, appropriate greeting, and the impression that the hostess is quite as glad to see them as if they were the only callers. With a dozen in the room at once, the most of them utter strangers to each other. Ladv Macdonald will contrive to keep the ball of talk rolling so merrily that J an leei tney nave a. uuuc iu iuc vuuv cita tion. Xady devotees of cycling will welcome the advent of a divided skirt, which has been on view lately in. London. The gar ment, which is intended especially for cyclists, looks like a perfectly innocent or dinary walking skirt made in light serge, with "a kilting showing through the Van dyked tabs at the bottom! More closely in spected, it proves to be without a founda tion, but some distance from the foot of tne skirt a width of material is attached with embryo dual garments inserted in two open ings, "it has been approved by Mrs. Behrens, a well-known lady cyclist, and by the Viscountess Habberton. Dresses for a summer ball are very pretty when trimmed with a profusion of flowers. The flounce on the bottom of the skirt may be made entirely of the long-stemmed flow ers or of grasses or leaves. Ona delicate green gauze gown a flounce of water lilies would harmonize beautifully. A silver gray should be relieved by a border of scar let poppies, and a dark cream crepe would be more effective trimmed with the beauti ful "ragged sailor." A highly intelligent and doubtless excel 1' at female in a weekly journal devoted to the interests of the fair sex advises as a sure recipe for "fattening the neck" a nightly application of olive oil, well rubbed into the "skin and bones," says the London cor respondent of the ChicagO-ScraZi. She very naively admits that this treatment may not be found entirely agreeable either in feeling or odor, but if "persevered with for two or three months it will be found most gratify ing in its results." Fancy going to oed for "two or three months" with olive oil rubbed intovour "skin and bones." She also goes on to say that this preparation may be washed oft with warm water in the morning, but that it is "much more efficacious if only wiped gently with a linen handkerchief." OH, Venus, to what vile uses have you brought your humble followers! The accompanying cut represents one of the most popular styles of ladies' coats shown among the latest importations. The coat is quite "mannish." Scraps About the Styles. Tnis season in dress Is a showy and gaudy one. Jackets are now worn short and tight fitting like bodice, with small revers and puffed up'sleev'es, ono tiny pocket with flap on each -side. Much beading and passementerie of all sorts are used. The perfectly plain skirts arc no longer considered stylish. A beading must be placed above the- hem, or a cording added to give the proper finish. Collar and cuff trimmings come in gold, silver, bronze and all the varying shades of these colors. By means of them an other wise common-appearing dress can be glori fied and beautified into a thing of beauty. Phinted lisse is the newest fabric for jabots, flchus and'like confections. So artis tically Is the printing done that It looks to a passingglance like painting. Tiny leaves and flow ers m brown and pale tints are struck over white, or perhaps over some subtle shade of yellow or lavender. THEireappears in the show windows broad satin ribbon in all shades, dotted with imita tion turquois, emeralds, opals and moon stones. Thesaare set Irregularly at every inch of the ribbon's length. All varieties of bright galloon can be obtained in any color, decorated with stones of any other variety. Black lace dresses are being recalled Into popularity. A year ago every woman, young or old, who made any pretensions to fash ionable dressing, numbered In her wardrobe at least one net dress. For a season the hot dress has been upon the wane, but modistes announce that the spring trado finds many of these gowns in the shops. Most exquisite pearl garnitures for waists, including a girdle, side trimmings, collar and sleeve pieces, can bo obtained at any of the large stores that deal in very nice ma terials. A lovely pearl set, suitable for wear ing over any dark material, consists of a solid network of beading extending over the complete right side of the basque. Bibboss are used In great profusion on summer dresses of every description; In the graceful long-looped bows that are always popular, in the more precise choux, in up riglit bows on the shoulders, in panel-like effects on the skirt, produced, by three or five perpendicular rows, each terminated by a bow at the foot in fact in any pretty way that fancy may dictate. Br a strange freak of fashion, while ladies wear the tiniest of bonnets little girls have their pretty heads ensconced Within enor mous capotes of gathered silk and lace. The smaller the child the larger the head-' gear. Some would look quite -ridiculous if they were not so perfectly lovely under the large protruding border of the pale, pink, capote, trimmed with whlto tulle and lace. Fon cvery-day walking dresses wo prefer the skirt only just touching the ground, which can bo easily upheld with one hand, especially when of light texture. Dresses of muslln-delaino, with small patterns printed in colors over. a light ground,- are often trimmed with one narrow flounce, put on with a heading round the foot, unless there is a border printed for the purpose, when no extra trimming is necessary. The "dress suspender" is- decidedly a de sideratum this season, for- skirts are long, and always more or less trailing on the ground at the back. They are quite plain in front, with a few plaits at the back only. In doors this shape is graceful, but for walking it is scarcely so. The .necessity of holding up one's skirts to avoid mud or dust take away all the harmonious outlines of the dress, which, to look well, requires to be long and flowing. Tiie fashionable woman will bo as mascu line in her attire as the still remaining in enmbmneo of petticoats jwill permit. She will have her shirts, and caps, and men's scarf: in addition to these, she. will still have tho tailor-made gown, which will bo built more mannish tham ever. White dnclc and straight-out Tests make up their toilets, with a. white linen shirt front with three gold buttons, and over'tho shirt bosom fastened a black doeskin or broadcloth vest exactly similar to a gentle man's garment. Some of the sun umbrellas will be chosen for their solidity and strength, while others will be admired for their slender elegance, the latter having corrugated metal sticks, tho ribs folding into the corrugations. A few have small nickel tubes. Ininounts and handles tho tendency Is toward plain woods again, and the oxidized silver shown In other seasons li seen in less variety. Xew and grotesque crook forms in bamboo and wauchee bticks find favor, l'leaaino- nffonta arc shown in ornamented, rough, natural knobs, l'oltshed rubber is returning to "fa vor in parasol mounts.

Ecclesiastics -of All Periods on the Scent for Heresy. THE PERSECUTED INGOOD COMPANY Timely Topics to Be Discussed in Our Pul pits To-Morrow. GLEANINGS FROM THE CHURCH FIELDS History repeats itself. The late heresy trials in Pittsburg and Detroit call up some mementoes of old-time heretics, who, in their day, came into conflict with ecclesi astical hierarchies. The ecclesiastics have never been tolerant of reformers. The seven suspended brethren and Dr. Briggs, though branded' as heretics, are in good company. "So persecuted they the prophets" in the olden time. Carlyle in his Reminiscences .had this to say of the trial of his bosom friend, Edward Irving, by the Annan Presbytery: "A poor aggregate of reverend sticks in black gowns, sitting in Presbytery, to pass formal condemnation, on a man and a cause which might have been tried in Patmos under presidency of St. John without the right troth of it being got atl I knew the moderator, one Roddick, since gone mad, for one of the stupidest and barrenest of living mortals; also the little phantasm of a creature Sloane his name who went niddy-noddying with his head, and was in finitely conceited and phantasmal, by whom Irving was rebuked with the 'Bemember where you are, sir,' and got answer, 'I have not forgotten where I am; it is the church where I was baptised, where I was consecrated to preach Christ, where the bones of my dear ones lie buried.' Con demnation under any circumstances had to follow." Sunday Services In Pittsburg Churches. Eev. I. C Pershing will preach, in the IT. E. Church, Homestead, at 10:30 a.m. Waltou M. E. Church Rev.

It is the general belief about the Navy Department that tho diplomatic career of ;Frederick Douglass at Port au Prince is rapidly drawing to a close. It Is known that the re port Admiral Gherardl brought to Wash ington in regard to the condition of affairs In Haiti was far from complimentary to Mr. Douglass, and made it oven more apparent than it had been. before that the affairs of the United States were in very poor hands. One of tho chief faults found with Sir. Douglass Is that he seems to have consid ered himself a representative of the negro race rather than of the United States. It is this veiy weakness of the Minister, however, that constitutes his office-holding strength, for the negroes have already complained of being neglected by President Harrison in the distribution of offices. If one of the few men of that race to whom he has given conspicuous appointments, and that one theman who has posed for years as the representative negro, should be turned out. there would be much criticism of the administration among colored politicians. Mr. Douglass has been granted leave of ab sence by tho State Department, with per mission to visit the United States. The ap plication for leave was granted about ten days or two weeks ago, and is for the custo maryperiod of 60 days. It is expected that Mr. Douglass will arrive in Washington within a short time.

GAME NO. 101-SINGLE COKNEE. Played at the Home Hotel, between 3. L. Eaeand the Checker Editor, after the team match, one of the four games contested. Mr. Bae's move: 11-15 29-25 1216 2724 1417 18-14 22-18 48 21-17 9-14 23-18 1017 15-22 24-20 8-12 189 1721 8 23-13 2518 10-15 1713 5-14 27-23 White 811 25-22 710 32-27 37 wins. (a) The above game is a specimen of how easy it Is to run a non-book player jnto a book loss and win with ease, and we take thi3 opportunity of speaking a word in favor of studying published play. By careful studying of the different openings, we can soon become familiar with all the traps and catches peculiar to the different openings, and when playing with those who may be as strong on tho end game as ourselves, we have them defeated before that stage is reached. We know there are some.who will take exception to this, but if we are playing for a score, these wins count all the same- THE GEEAT TEAM MATCH. Full particulars appeared in last Sunday's Dispatch with the score and names of each contestant. It was a success in everyway, but the score was a little one-sided, Pitts burg 37 wins. Western Pennsylvania 16 wln3 and 12 games drawn. It was unexpected, such a sweeping .victory, and yet Pittsburg had a few strong players looking on who would have made a good score against any of tho visitors save Mr. Maize. The follow ing are the names of the gentlemen: Mr. Spurr, E. W. Patterson, G. D. Sherrow, Sam uel Eodger and Mr. Brown, besides Messrs. Johnston and Jones, who were absent. We have no doubt that the lesson of last Satur day will have an excellent effect on the visitors, and the next time they come to Pittsburg, they will be better prepared and they willat all hazards seek to redeem'them selves. Wo believe a few of them were over confident and some were a little nervous and did not do themselves Justice. WYLLIE AND EEED CONTEST. As our readers are aware, Mr. A. J. Dun lap, draughts editor of the New York Turf, cave in to Eeed's claim for the $100 lodged by Xylite to secure a match with the Ameri can champion. It was with reluctance he did so, and, in our opinion no date having been fixed In the articles for the commence ment of the match Seed had no claim to the forfeit. This view is also largely en tertained by American draught players, and Mr. E. W. Patterson, of Pittsburg, feels so strongly on the matter that he has sent us a check for $100 to hand to Mr. Wyllle, so that the latter may suffer no pecuniary loss by the sharp practice of the American cham pion. His letter Is as follows: "I hereby send you a draft for JE20 7s 4d on Brown, Shipley & Co., London, being the .proceeds of $100, to secure Mr. Wyllie against any loss, i do not intend tnis in any sense to be a reflection upon the recent action of the draughts editor of the Turf. He has al ways been a staunch friend of the veteran, and simply did what he believed to be his duty in tho matter." Although, in no way blaming Mr.'Dunlap who has always been a good Iriend to the "Herd Laddio" Mr. Patterson says nothing about what he thinks of Eeed. This silence is, in a sense, the most severe censure that could be passed on tho conduct of Eeed, Hefter, and the "Chicago Chess, Checker, and Whist Club." We are content to leave it thus. In the meantime, on behalf of Mr. Wyllie, wo thank Mr. Patterson for his most gener ous gift, and congratulate Pittsburg on its possession of a citizen who has thus effectu ally removed the stigma that -would other wise have been attached to" American draught players. Herald. The proposed match between Wyllie and tho American champion' having fallen through, the former and his friends were rather astonished at a claim put forth by Eeed for the stakes, on the ground that Wyl lie was not in Chicago and ready to start play by April L No date was fixed In the signed articles, and the claim was founded on an incidental remark in one of Wyllle's letters that the contest sbonld begin by that date. Eeed, however, got the stakes.butnot Without some strong opposition and equally strong languago from some of the American draught players. But their sympathy with WyUie is not confined to words. Mr.E.Mc Call, Glasgow, yesterday received a check for $100 to hand to Wyllle on his return home, being the amount Wyllie lodgedlnthe stake holder's hands. Mr. E. AT. Patterson, of Pittsburg. Pa, isihe generous donor of this 'sum, which removes a blot that would otherwise have attacneu to tnewnoieDoay of American draught players. Glasgow Evening Times. The DiSPATCuhas taken the above position all 'through this unpleasant controversy. That as the dates were absent from the arti cles of asrrcoment between Wyllie and Eeed. Wyllle had broken no contract and the arti cles would be good for years, as the'oniy thing definite was that the match was to take place GO days after his landing in America, Mr. Patterson's generosity in refunding to Mr. Wyllie $100 does not, in our judgment, make Mr. Dunlap's position any more favorable. The money was unjustly given away, and wo are sure A. J. Dnnlap realizes it by this time; and If Mr. Dunlap will cdme forward and admit the error, and pass round the hat, we can bo counted upon to give our one-tenth. We believe this to be the only honorable course left for hlin; and when the old man arrives there maybe no unnecessary delay in getting on the match for the world's championship. CHECKEE GOSSIP. The correspondence tournament of the Korthem Leader, after fully four years' play, has now been brought to a termination. Tho first prize has been won by Mr. James Lees, Dalmelllngton, Scotland. The visiting players were taken to the in ternational loot race in the midst of a heavy rain, by Mr. Joseph Maize, and as the Pittsburg man was not in it the visitors took it as a good omen in their favor. But, alas! it was they who wero not in it. Our con tributor, L. Armstrong, played in the visit ing team, and suffered severely at the hands of Mr. Ellis in the match, but got some satis faction out of the others.
