When the people nil do got back they ,vlll be surprised nt the chnnges In the Kolf course nt the Country club. Tho links have been extended to a consid erable decree and tho record-breakers nmong the club members mny discover that they will bo obliged to mnke n new set, ns the tees are much farther hpnrt. The turf Is In line condition and the playing will he decidedly more en joynble. It Is expected that unwonted interest In golf will be nppnrent this Reason, ns many of the best players of the city have been In practice while nway this summer. Croquet has seized many devotees With the fascination It exerted years ngo. Judge Wlllard's spacious lawn Is n. favorite resort this season and nl hiost any evening Judge nnd Mrs. WIN lard and a number of friends may be Been enjoying the game. For a number of years Mrs. W. 11. iPerklns has entertnlned the managers of the Homo for the Friendless nt her charming country place nt Dalton. The Sept. 21, when they will again enjoy the 21st, when thev will ngaln enjoy a day thus delightfully spent. It Is ex pected that but few absent faces will e numbered. "Dear me!" exclaimed n fair sum incr maid the other day. "Our Tenny son club had nbout decided to meet every week nnd sew flannels nnd other things for the soldiers nnd here the war Is over. That's just our luck. Lost pummer we were on the point of mak ing raspberry vinegar and root beer nnd blackberry cordial for the Thir teenth regiment nt Lnttlmer, when the strike ended. We really couldn't get nt it a minute sooner than we have, for we've been having such a good time." Many friends of Miss Allls Dale have lieen pleased nt the opportunity of re newing acquaintance with her guests, Mrs. Leonard, Miss Gibson and Miss Hurrah, who have been seen constantly with her while driving or walking dur ing the past week or more. Mrs. Leon nrd, as Miss Hudson, during her pre vious visits to this city was very much admired. The tragic end to her stay has greatly shocked a large circle. Mrs. Leonard has been married but a short time. In fact tho ceremony was per formed at the outbreak of hostilities In the war and her young husband, who was nn officer, went Immediately into service. Recently he has been sta tioned In a southern camp nnd was ex pected home soon. One day this week Mrs. Leonard received news that he was not very well, but nothing serious was apprehended. She, however, grew anxious and decided to go to her home In Paterson nt once. She left Thurs day and after her departure a tele gram was received statins that her husband was worse. Yesterday a sec ond message came announcing his death. The sad circumstances have cast much gloom over the many who have known Mrs. Leonard, and Is another Instance of the inexorable results of this war. Tho Country club lawn has been oc cupied during these blistering after noons by the base ball team actively practicing for the match game on Mon day with the Country club, of Harris burg at that place. There have been some remarkable plays made In these quiet glades which were born to blush unseen by the public, and there Is no sort of doubt that our team will entirely demolish the Harrlsburgers. J. H. Brooks Is captain, and If there Is any body In this vicinity who knows some thing ubout base ball It Is that self same "Porkle." Others who are billed to play In the great same are Messrs. James Blair, Albert Watson. Thorne, K. S. Moffat, II. P. Simpson, F. S. Fuller. James Sanderson and Claude Walker. The pitchers will bo Brooks and Blair, while Thorne will act us catcher. It will be small credit to their enter tainers if our boys are able to play at all, so persistently are they to be en tertnlned and kept skirmishing during their stay. In the morning a golf match will be played. The ball gumo will tuke up the afternoon, followed by nn elaborate supper and dance In the evening at the Country club. The Scrunton men nre looking forward with great glee to this occasion, while their nearest feminine relatives and friends have visions of sunstroke, apoplexy nnd other calamities If the hot weather continues. September 17 will signal the real opeqlng of the autumnal season. On that dato the Harrisburg Country club will play a return game In this city, to be followed by a dance in the evening. By that time nil the Country club members will come Hocking home and the event will be nttended with much gaiety. At the pleasant residence of the Rev. S. V. McVey, of Holllstervllle. Pu., on Thursday afternoon, were gathered the immediate relatives and friends of Rev. and Mrs. McVey, the occasion being the marriage of their daughter, Delia, to James M. Bisbee, of Scran ton. The Rev. George Eaklns, of WIlkes-Barre, assisted by Rev. S. V. McVey, father of the bride, pronounced the words which made them husband und wife. The beautltul and Impres sive ceremony was celebrated nt C.30 P. m. In the parlor, which was taste fully decorated with flowers. The Impression made by the pure loveliness of the bride und the manly bearing of groom, as they gracefully received the congratulations of their friends, will not soon be forgotten. Tho bank of flowers, and dark, rich foliage In the background, udded to the com pleteness of the picture. A wedding feast complete In very detail of ele gance and abundance was served to the guests. The floral decorations, In which ferns und golden rod predomi nated, were effectively designed and niHde each room a bower of beauty. In the selection of the rresnt . gnnco and utility were happily blend ed. The bridegroom Is n son of John Blsbce, of Scranton, and Is a young man of lino personal qualities, combin ing Integrity of character with a kind ly, generous nature, which has gnlned him many friends. Tho bride Is a mod est nnd accomplished young lady, love ly In mind nnd person. She was for three years n pupil In tho Scrunton High school. Her friends will be glad to lenrn that Mr. nnd Mrs. Blsbco will reside In Scranton. Mrs. F. D. Brewster gave n progres slvc euchre party for her guests,' Miss Wcller, of Mlddletown, and Miss Burns of Great Bend, after which dancing was enjoyed. Dr. Thompson and Miss Dermun secured prizes. Messrs. A. 'A. Huntington and J. H. Brooks will probably enter for the na tional golf championship at Morris town, N. J., September 12. Mr. nnd Mrs. G. G. Brooks enter tallied at dinner Tuesday evening. Mr. and Mrs. H. N. Patrick enter tnlned friends at dlnenr l.tat evening. Miss Helen Cooke, whoso home Is In Sac Harbor, but who has spent much of the pnst few years In this city, had an experience at Montnuk the other day which brightened a little the sad hued tone of that forlorn picture. She came to the camp In senrch of her brother Avho was In the First cavalry, Just sent north. She knew not whetn er he was well or 111, but lnden with delicacies for him she pursued n weary search over tho desolate stretch of sand dunes and tented hillsides. Worn out and exhausted with the heat, and unable to walk the weary miles to the spot where his troop was shld to be, she returned to the station. Suddenly she made a frnntlu move ment toward tho far end of the pint form for there was her brother, thin indeed, but well and engaged in un loading stores from the train. That the meeting was Joyful may well be Imagined. Miss Bernetta McIInle, of Woodlawn Park, entertained a number of friends Thursday night In honor of her guests, Miss II.

Fall nud Winter Dress Materials; Bayadere Styles Prominent, Cro- poit3 Poplin Plaids; Styles in Making; Millinery; Colors. Special Corcspondenco of Tho Tribune. New York, Sept. 2. Styles which havu been prominent one senson nre almost sure to be reproduced In the curliest Importntlons nf tho succeed ing onos therefore it Is not surprising to llnd Bnyndere effects tho lending fancy In fall and winter dress mater ials. As the llrst Illustration, two tone, Irrldescent corded poplins will bo largely employed for tailor suits; changeable rep also Is shown, and In fact almost any corded fabric Is stylish, Tho mnjorlty of new stuffs display two or more colors, nevertheless tho re nppenrance of ladles' cloth or plain Venetian cloth show thut fashion al ways provides liberally for her de votees; never confining them to any one style. TWO TONH DIAGONALS and whipcords also find n place among new fnbrlcs, and medium priced checks sell well. Camel's hnlr Bayaderes In straight or waving designs, are beauti ful blendings of soft, rich color, partly veiled In black hair, and In order that tho Bnyadero effect may not bo lost, some of these plaids have a fringe nn Inch long of crimped black camel's hair running crosswise. Boucle plnlds are much on the same order, too expensive ever to become common. It Is notice able that handsome materials are more apt to be revived than ordinary ones, nnd ns an exemplification, crepons of every kind of color nre again stylish, and those who had tho foresight to keep a handsome crepon while It was temporarily ignored, mny now use it again with perfect confidence. POPLIN PLAIDS have come up again, principally for waists or children's dresses, and while It is too early to be sure, u strong de mand for plaids is expected. The choice novelties, however, are In French silk and wool mixtures, and on variously colored grounds, are thrown upon silk or mohair designs in thous ands of different pattersn, often with half-concealed cords in various sizes, the color blendings being usually ex fiulclte, and designs rather small, THK FEW ILLUSTRATIONS of fall costumes now seen, show long skirts, plain on the hips, nnd trimming extends up the left side on a Bayadere crepon, while a second hns two deep ruflles all aroung the skirt. A hand some Irrldecent crepon Is trimmed with a broad, black satin duchesso band around the skirt, a similar ban J edges over the oversklrt, with belt, puffs and collar to match. Another crepon woven In waving Bayadere style has no ornamentation, ns the ele gance of the fabric admits of no trim ming. A French fashion plate shows deep ruliles around a long oversklii coming up to the waist at either side, leaving the front breadth plain. Loose or tlsht fronts are nbout evenly divid ed. Sleeves although small are not yet tight, but however engrossing new fashions may be, all good managers will soon have their colored waists and delicate muslin dresses washed with Ivory soap and laid away; thus ensuring their bright colors or pale shades for another season, FBATIIKRS AND VELVET are the bulwarks of fall and winter millinery, not only mlroir velvet, but striped velvet, dotted velvet, and n black velvet or chenille overweave on silk plaids, are called into requisition. The last mentioned style Is In harmony with dress materials, but blighter and more numerous colors are used, und shining throunh the soft chen ille tracery, the result Is charming. Contrasting dots on plain velvet are very new, and the same Idea Is carried out on colored moire or plain satin rib bons, and even plumage Is dotted. Plain silk with raised silk plush or velvet stripes is another Bayadere fan cy, or plain silk with silk fringe stripes are noin seen in miuinery tnorics. LARGE SOFT CROWNS como by the hundred, bended, span gled nnd embroidered in silver tinsel, gilt, jet, rhino stone, or Fteel: on black or colored velvet, silk or net; no small proportion being a combination of ma terial, and intended for largo velvet hats. They are expensive costing from i'-'.2u to $5.00 apiece ut wholesale. Plu magi Is so stiff, that the crown or oth er trimming must Impart grace or soft ness to the fashionable hat. Ostrich feathers hold their own, but the nov elty Is guinea-fowl plumage, employed In every imaginable way. A band of It Is sometimes pasted on one half (lengthwise) of a quill, edged by os trich flue. Pheasant and owl plumage are again fashionable and anything In the "enstor shades" If acceptuble APART FROM BIRDS wings or quills, the mnjorlty of now plumage comes in stiff bands, or pairs, thesa lust shuped much like a crescent, (yet not a true crescent) and will be placed at each side of a hat front, or together at one side. Colored ftlt hats of medium size will bo worn In differ ent wnys; some tilted over the eyes, others off the face, or turned up on one side, apd this season, the Import ant feature is the trimming not the hat, RIBBONS ARE A WORLD In themselves pluided. striped, dotted, shaded, plain satin, moire, chocked and velvet striped. A new pinlded rlbnon Is woven with cords that druw up, making wide or nurrow ruliles with puffs between, and these nre purtlou larly well adapted for trimming felt huts. Millinery colors embraco nil shades of green, brown, purple, pink In all hues, particularly sulmon pink, several shudes of mugentu, much crim son, and u good share of yellow. Turquolso blue, electric blue, and muny other tints indicate that It will bo a prime favorite this winter. Fannie Field. Stone Gains 20 Pounds iu 30 Years.

It Is Huch a pity that young slrls with rough, oxcorlnted skin are allow ed to continue In existence under such iJlsadvantngeous circumstances when n cure can be easily effected. There Is nothing wore desirable to a woman from a worldly point of view, than a tine complexion. Ueijulnrlty of feature beauty of teeth, eyes nnd hair are not to be considered in comparison with n smooth, wholesome skin, unmarred by irruptions. There are those who havo eaten enough sulphur to render them proof npralnst tho fumes of the abode of the lost, and who have swal lowed sulflclont blood medleinea to sup ply a cut-rate store, nnd yet whose complexions are almost repulsive. They have religiously followed medical advice with regard to dl"t and have sacrificed Innumerable boxes of bon bons to the omnlverous nppetlte of younger brothers and sisters, with the same result that would probably at tend a leopard bent on a similar object. The fact is that some complexions refuse to vleld to nny thing short of a hclentlflc course of applications, used by experienced hands. There are young women and several older ones In tills city whose present nppearane'j must greatly astonish their friends who until recently have been accus tomed to see them with faces horribly ulsllguied by irruptions. These results have been obtained in a perfectly nat ural manner by antiseptic treatment given under direction of a voung wo man who hns certainly accomplished marvelous success with most obstlnato cases. I cannot rf.fraln from mention ing this posslbilltj for the benertt of many who from a series of disappoint ing experiments regard cure of facial eczema as hopeless, The satisfaction ol appearing unveiled after years of mortification occasioned by a rough und unlovely visage Is being enjoyed by the happy ones mentioned above, in a way possibly only to be compre hended by a fnlr young sultnnn sud denly emancipated from the harem and the swathing Moslem veil. ...

Over nnd nbovo his vast astuteness of thought he la a man of action. If for many years he has proved himself as supple as a serpent, hlfi earlier history nhowed him to be brave as a lion.

Ilefore that, as a lad of IS, when a student at the College of Knglneeis at Logrono, his native place, he hesi tated not to withstand the behesta of the dreaded Nervaez. Whenever the time came for fighting he was ready to take his share, yet, without Im peaching thnt undeniable physical pluck of which ho has given nmny proofs. It is not surprising to mid that he made It his first duty as a soldier to prevent himself from being unnecessarily killed. Hence, In the summer of 1S66, while many of his col leagues stuck to their barricades In the streets of Madrid and were mas sacred, Sagasta underwent the much more convenient fate of the garroto In his absence. Thenceforward, for two years in London, Purls and Ostend were the centers of his activity, and If vvnlls could Hpeak, a certuin restnurant of Utshopsgate street could tell some strange stories.
