THE GLASS OF FASHION.
Tlie use of luce is increasing day by
Jay. He vers, collars, guimpes, boleros,
garnitures, every possible application
Is seen.
The new collars of the ready to wear
variety are extremely convenient and
pretty. One style has a black velvet
top with three folds of colored satin
below.
The craze for velvet has reached the
lowest ebb—the feet. Boots made of
colored or black velvet to match the
velvet costume Is the extremest flight
of fashion.
Empire jackets of guipure, with the
designs outlined in creamy chenille, are
among the dainty novelties of the sea
son. Fringes of steel and jet beads are
seen on some of the newest wraps.
One of the new Paris modes is the
use of printed panne or foulard as
trimming for cloth gowns. The soft
printed fabric Is applied in folds edged
by pipings of velvet the shade of the
cloth skirt.
The Cuban military heel Is the estab
lished favorite In women's high class
shoes. It is a much more sensible and
comfortable heel for walking, say those
who wear it. than the extremely low or
the Louis XV.
Green promised to be one of the fa
vored colors for winter, but the prom
ise has not been kept. One sees little
of it even in millinery. Black, gold,
brown, beige, pearl gray and deep red
are decidedly in the lead.
Resolutions of Condolence.
At, a regular stated meeting of St.
Ann's Young Men's C. T. A. B. Corps,
of Freeland, held at their hall, Novem
ber 24, 1000, the following resolutions

Whereas, It has pleased Almighty
God to remove from our midst our late

Resolved, That while we bow with
humble submission to the decrees of
Almighty God we sincerely lament the
loss of a valuable member, and the
society of one who, by his kind and
gentle disposition, won the respect and
esteem of those around him.
Resolved, That in the death of Pat
rick Kennedy St. Ann's Young Men's
C. T. A. B. Corps has lost a useful and
worthy member, and we a kind and
faithful companion.
Resolved, That we inourn his loss,
and tonder our heartfelt sympathy to
his relatives and friends,
Resolved, That these resolutions be
entered on the minutes, and a copy bo
presented to the brother of the deceased,
and that they be published in the Free
land Tribune.

the home, and their implements of war
faro were those things which every
hungry person likes to see. To add to
its good cheer a nice purse of money

tinue to enjoy the sympathies of so many
friends.
