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

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

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

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."

0XJB COLORED DIPLOMAT. "
The Career of Frederick "Douglass Appar
ently Nearlng an End.
Washington, June 5. 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

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

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

of Mr. Ellis in the match, but got some satis

Mr. John B6he, living at 1630 Howard
