THF: FASOIONS. FANCY COSTUMES. Tarper's Dazar. The season for masquerade parties has re- turned, and ecstumers say the demand is for fanciful costumes copied from French models of the last century, and also for picturesque Oriental dresses; for instance, the Pompadour dresses, the Trianon styles, the Freoch Guard uniform, and the Parisian Jockey euit, with Japanese, Turkish, and India dresses, are pre- ferred to the hackneyed Vivandieres, Night and Morning, and other familiar tuilettes that ap- pear at every ball. The Japanese dress may be readily fashioncd from the figures on the craoe- paper pictures that are sold in the shops for a few cents. The Polish dress is casily arranged with the heln of a long black velvet polonaise, come jet trimmings, and fur borders. The Spanish Iady wears a crimson or a cream-colored silk, with many roses and black Iace for rarni- ture; n her coiffure is a hizh comb stuck in on one side, and supporting a lace vell or mantilla, which falls over -her shoulders, and is fastened. on her breast by a rose. The short Pompadour costume shown at the costumers’ resembles closely the styles now in vosue, and parts of it are found in the wardrobe of most ladics. Thus a short round skirt of black velvet Is the foundation for the handsomest suits shown. It is shaped pre- clsely like the walking skirts of velvet now used. and may be made more showv by a white lace flounce, which may be put oo plain orin gathers, according to fancy, and headed by & bund of gay brocaded silk that looks like cmnbroidery. The overdress is of white silk with large bouquets brocaded upon it, and perbavs stripes of blue or rose wnoire or satin, and the same eflect may be given in less expeusive gauze or in organdy muslin, This overdress is o_short polonaise with Watteau back, square neck, elbow slecves, and a vest of black velvet like the gkirt; the polonaise curves back from the vest, displaying 1he velvet skirt, and is bunched up in paniers. The bair is powdered, or clse a wiz 15 worn. Long lace mittens reach above the cibow. The stockings are colored silk, and the French heels of the sifppers are gilded. ‘The French Guard dress is very dashing. It hasa short round skirt of blue and white striped satin, witha blue satin revers down cach side studded with gilt buttons. The blue satin coat in Louls Quatorze style, with & vest, has broaa collars, cufls, and pockets of white gatin edged wilh zold braid. A capteen painted in tricolor is suspended from the shoulders, and the white felt hat has the brim _turned up in three placed. A jaunty jockey suit bas a short white satin skirt with stripes of red velvet down the front and on the Jower part of the back. A great horseshoe of red velvet curves down from the belt in front as a sort -of border, and extends across the back: on this are sewed horses’ heads of gray brocade that look like embroidery, also horseshoes of black velvet studded with gilt Sgnflgles that look like nail neads. ‘The double-breasted coat is of red vel- vet, with white atin revers, and much white Tace for filling ip the open-space at the neck. The little jockey cap is of red velvet, with filt bit, spurs, and horseshoes for ornament. 4 great deal of gilt cord, braid, and buttons is on this dress, and a pretty littic whip i3 carried in the hand. The boots should be of red mo- rocco in high Polish shape. The gypsy dress of Carmen is_ very .pooalar . this season, also the Tarautula dress of bright yellow satin with black and scariet veivet bands, on which are gypsy Dieroglyphice. DOMINOES. The pewest dominoes follow the outlines of the figure as closely as it Is possible to do with- out disciosing i, They are ‘partly fitted in the ‘back by a middle seam, and wide side forms that gre at least a tinzer’s length -broad at the waist line on garments meant for ladies of medium size, The fullness of the skirt is then added gradually by cuttiog the’ scams to _siope toward ihe ‘ground, instead of addlor pleated fuliness all in one Dlace. The froot is Joosely fowing, or else it muy be partly fitted to the form by a sinelc dart,or by ihe long Gabriclle scams that begin on fihcshou{- ders. ‘The back forms are thought to flt more gracefully when started from the shoulders ra- Ther tian the srmholes. A pointed bood reach- ingtothe walst line is usually added, asit drapes‘the fieure slightly, and concenls it almost. as effectually as the smail “ Lulu " masks do the face. Very rich febrics are used for the dominoes that are put on with tine Juce-trimmed undershitts and worn afl the evenives for o domino to be worn over an evening dress part of the evening, and thrown aside when disgnise 1s no louger sought, stmpler stufls, such ascam- bric, stlesta, #ud alpaca, are used. A good qual- 1ty of glossy black cambric_looks very well ina domlno i.. the evening, and may be trimmed with pioked frills of cream-colored cambric; 2 ovavyblue combric domino has white pinked [rills, and one of cream-color has bands of maroon red stiched upon it; the hoods of these are also Jined with the contrasting color used for the cambrie. White tambric dominoes look too much like night-dresses, and tiose of white alpaca are too sugzgestive of shronds. The vrettiest white dominoes are of thin striped ‘Turkish goods, like the Algerian stafls of mixed silic and wool; these are made with a burnous fold at the top of the back that helps to conceal the wearer. Ladies make for themseives white Swiss dominoes, trimmed with lace, aud after- wurd use the nice materials forsumter dresses. These are worn over handsome silk or velvet evening dresses that they do notcareto conceal, and the only concealment attempted s by the maslt and the long .scarf of Spanish lace, either black or white, which is thrown over the head and face and around the-neck and shoulders. JEWELS. New York Tridure. Diamonds have lately so fluctuated in value that these_flowers of i inineral kinguom d precedence to pearls, sapphires, und em- ralds. Oiher stobes of rare vafue are also greatly sought for: the beautiful cat’s eye of the East Iudles, the lustrous and rare moon- stone, the Oriental topaz, and_ the fridescent, wondrous-tinted opal. ‘The Inst is the only gem that canuot be imitated. Pearls are very fash- ionaple. One of the wmost exquisite necklaces, fresh from the hauds ol the workmau, shews au intricate deslen in red_gold, with three white pearls of perfect shape aud vurity, falling like 2 cluster of suow-drops af regufar Gistances. The upper portion of the band i3 set with pearis and diamonds. A magnificent pendaut cross, with the four ends of equal lengtk, is made oven with an_inver cross of kuife-blade setting close- 1y studded with pearls. The oink pearl of the East fends a flush fo the metallic lustre of the Pauama pearl, the other gradations of lizht and shade softly blending in the opal pearl, the yel- low pearl of China, thé copper or oronze-tinted, the black-lead colored pearl, and the lustrous white. A large black pearl drops from the lower edge, tiny diamonds flash from between the pearls und a two-Jovers’-knot of diamonds and one copper-hiued pearl forms the loop above. A quaint pair of cartings is set with three small diamonds, a pink pearl droplet pendaat {rom otie. and a_bronze pearl from the other. A wila rose lace pin is studded wWith diamonds, With a large Taby of *pigeon’s blood " hue glowing in the heart. The cun- ning leaves and stem are dismonds, and the yos¢ can be detached and fastened on o 2old hair-pin. A crescent of diamonds has a fringe of graduated poarls, showing the different colors ot piuk, white, black, copper, and chang- fue opaline. A larze double crescent of large diamonds hes a_raby and diamond star set in the centre, and near it glitters alace-pin of diamond forget-me-nots, hiolding in the heart of each flower a peart of a differént color. Ove of the most beautiful of the elaborate specimens of handiwork is a stalk, leal, and grain of wheat wronght in dull yellow gold; on this are perched three birds with outspread wings, showing such colors s red, copoer, and green, In the differ- ent alloys of gold. From ecnch bill a dinmond hongs glivtering ke o dew-drop. A_pair of earrings accompany this artistic lace-pin. Some exquisitely _lovely Jjewelry sets in graceful sprays Of lily-ofthe-vailey, Mar- Fuerlte and clover leaf designs nre e Imarkable for the charming skadings of color surrounding pearls and diawonds, varying from the palest yellow to copper, green, «nd brown- ish-red, produced by the apolication of heat of different decrees to the plates of gold. Rep- tiles find extensive appreciation. Of 2 pair of massive bracelets of yellow gold one is formed of two colled serpents with two ruby eves: for 1he other armi is a golden coil Witha ram’s head. Tt will be scen that the present caprice lends 1tself to oddities and economies as well; in case one article of a pair is lost, one need not be thought eccentric if the carrings and bracelets fail to match. Among other rare objects de fuze is a strine of Oricntal pearls pure white, slightly transparent, and perfectly round. The Oricntal pearl {s just 8s much prized now gs in ancient Yimes, especially from its harmony with = fair, Gelicate skin. In the present combination of colors to0 much cgre cannot be taken to avoid coarse contrasts, The dress offered to Euid, © where, like a floating sea, the Jovely ulue played into the green,” proved the artistic turn of Tennyson’s brain. for pale green may be min- gled craltily with pale blue, while blue and yel- Jow mix unkindly tugether. One out of iwo colors should always be dull and not too pure. Yellow has many beautiful shades, particolarly when it graduatiy pales into ccra and ivory. NOTES. New York Sun.

Cnicago, Feb. 1.—According to the Goy- ernor’s Messaze upwardsof 5,000 certificates at §1 each on diplomas, and a number (probably 600 or $00) on exuminatious at $5 each have been issued by the State Board of Health, which sanitary (%) body has 50 far been almost wholly occupied in throwing out the “irregu- Jar” doctors, by authority of the Medical Prac- tice act. The Board mow want 2 laree appro- priation of cash from the State Treasury, but dongt account for the amount received as above, and. for other fees, altogetlier erlinos nearly $10,600. I the M.

It attacks dwellers in palaces, as well as those who livoin dark and damp base- ments and ceflars. The common people are be- ginning to look for causes, und to study intelll- gently the wav to prevent it. [t behooves all who can to aid in this education. Doctors should encourage this sceking for knowledge which will save sickness, When people understand the causes of disease outside the body, as well as those from wrong eating and drinking, sickness in a great degree will disappear. Hercditory -diseases will assume a milder type and event- uslly dic out. There are seeds of disease in the air, and whether we attract them depends io a great measure upon the auality of our tuody Which s cither pure or otherwise, according to the food we cat. Also upon the conditions which surround ctch one of us. It is zenerally the result of violation of physical law it we are sick, and not blind chance. ~ ‘Uhe causes which produce consumptiou wilt not develop scarlet or typhoid fevers, but unhealthy conditions of cifferent temperaments may attract these differ- ent forms of disease. Dr. Beard, an able writer on atmospberic electricity and ozone, shows how tides of clee- tricity flow regularly through the sir morning and evening, generating ozone, Nature’s great disinfeetant and caorative agent. When 1t I8 found in the right proportion iu the atmospnere cpidemics cannot prevail, When there is a lack, interwittenc fever and. nervous diseases are greatly ngeravated, cspecially in low and flat districts. A want of ozone fayors the spread of croup, diphtheria, scarlet uud typhold fevers, and in bot countries it is the probable cause of yellow fever and cholera. If the Government would make as faithful observations in this vital matter as it does in the winds and the weather, the people would soon_learn to take in sail it sickness threatcos. To be forewarned is {foregrm them. tis but a short time, comparatively, since anything was known about electricity. Al the bebelits which have grown out of knuwledze of it are few, compared to the blessings which will come of understanding the clements of the air and hbw to ucilize its life and health-iving ropertics, and to guard ngainst the effects ot its poison from gases, decaying vezetation, ete. There is great danger in sleeping in rooms where there arc fixed basins, unless there is an escape-pipe leading to the roof to convey the sewer-gas, The traps often fail to ketp out this deadly poison. It (s forced from varlous causes ghrough them with all its deadliness. It would be more exhilarating and far healtnier to sleep fn rooms with no warmth, and wash in cold water, a3 most of us did in youth;—at least those of us past 50 years of age,—than to be surrounded by all modern improvements. ‘The open fire is cheerful, and the only one m regard to ventilation which Is absolutely safe. It would add much more to the health and pros- perity of the future if our legislators would in- vestifate into the causes and the prevention of disease than Lo give so much time aud money to build asvlums and hospitals for those who should never have gotten sick or infirm. * Pre- vention is better than cure.” Mns. E. G. Coox, M. D. Explanation. To the Editor of The Tribune. CHICAGO, Feb, 1.—Will you have the kind- ness to correct an article which appeared in your fssue of the Ist, charzing Thomas Fitzgerald of sounding a fire-alarm from Box 201 without cause, aud also charging him with befug a worthless character? A prominent business- man on South Desplaines street, Mr. Baker, of the firm of Murray & Baker, sent a maa to sound an alarm, he seelnz fire escaping from a chimner, thinking the house to be on fire. Mr. Fitzgerald, buvivg a key, sent aman to lnves- tizate, who reported fire, and consequently the alarm was sounded. In proof of tbis statement I refer you to Oflicers Read and Tierney, who made the arrest, they having investigated the matter. As to Mr. Fitzeerald being a worthless character, that is @ direct fnsult upon an honest and respectable workingman, to which many prominent citizens in this locality can testify. One Wio Exows. Obscrvations, 1o the Editor of The Tribune. CRICAGO, Feb. 1.—The Blodgett investieation has developed what an “honorable? position Mr. Vocke oceupied as Assignee of the Germa- nia Insurance Company, and the citizens of Chi- cagro can congratulate themselves that soworthy 2 man is a member of the Board of Education. Certainly & worthy model for our children to imitate! Would it not be well for our influential Mr, Hesing, now that he is makine a clean breast of it, to state how hic sccured Mr. Vocke's appoint- ment to the Board in spite of the great vpposi- tion made by leading citizens? It would “also be well if hé would state whether by this ap- pointment he squarea his acconnt with Vocke, and this was a reward in full for services ren- dered in the insurance case, or whether we will have to elect Mr. Vocke to Congress or some other high office to settle that account? Really we North Siders are biessed in having such a precious pair of **honorable men” look- ing out for our interests. Nortnt S1pE CITIZEN. Judge Drammond Qaestioned. Judze Drommond said, in reply to Vr. Culber- £on, that he did not think that Register Hiboard shoald be indicted for perjury if he had obeyed the instructions of Judue Blod#ett, and acted under the Conrt's jntisdiction.—Jtepdrt of examination of Judge Jrummond before Congressional Com- mittee. To the Editor of The Tribune. CHICAGO, Feb, 1.—I think Judge Drummound is in ervor in his statement given above. Even thouzh Mr. Hibbard may have made up his re- port of fees in conformity to the cotstraction of the Jaw 18 given by Judge Blodzett, it was no defenso to the indictment if that construc- tion was erroncous. ‘The Supreme Court of the United States in the case of Bovd va. Alabama, 4 Otto, page 645, decided in 1876, held that a party who iras been fnduced to commit & crim- inal et by a previous decision of the Supréme Court of the State could not protect himself on a trial of the indictment on the ground that he had relied upon the previous decision of the Supreme Court of the Statc in _committing the act complafned of. ‘The Court in that case say: ¢ 649: “If he has been misled by previ- ous adjudications of the State Couts his relief frow the present judgment must be sought from the clemency of the Executive. This Court can afford him noge,” The judzment meotioned by the Court in that case was a conviction of e party under g critinal indictment. LAWYER. A Now Bed at St. Luke’s Hospital. To the Editor of The Tribune. Cnrcaco, Feb.1.—On the morning of the 30th of January there was presented to Bishop Me- Larea by Dr. Locke, and by the Bishop placed upon the altar of the chapel at St. Luke's Free Hospital, the sum of $3.00£.09 in gold and silver coin, This sum is the free gift of children from all parts of the United States to endow a child’s bed in St. Luke’s Hospital, in Chicago, and grew out of the suggestion of the Churchman of New York about two vears ago. Eloquent and touch- ine nddresses were mage by the Bishop and Dr. Locie, and_the following verses were contribut~ ed by Mr. Goodyin, Ji When Christ His earthly pithway trod “I'hroagh want and sickness, tears and grief, Nohoms to rest His weary head, Yo child to prattie sweet relief, He paosed among the throng to raise A curious thing before all eyes, And said, ** Be like this little child, ‘And you shall tste of Paradise.” Dear Clirist! to-day we come to Thee With offerings from a Continent, By myriad loving children sent, 50 heap their hearts on one soft bed, where some poor eniring little hiead ¥.ay rest scenre—where Time's swifl glass Wikl saork but blessings as they pas Where gentle hands will scotlie each paln And woo the sick to health aguin.

To the Editor of The Tribune. Curcado, Feb. 1.—1his reform, like all impor- tant measares, has its ohjectors. Bacon is re- ported as having characterized it 2 branch of unprolitable subtlety,” asserting that by its adaptation *the derivation of wc™1s, especially from the foreima lyan;-;nngcs, are utterly defaced ud extinguished.” 4 iy Now let:gns consider this objection. It is well to weigh all arguments against as woll as fo fa- vor of any proposed pnblic measure, and throw our influence and efforts on the side which prom- fses the greatest good to the greatest number. Fhe fact that objections are raised to any pro- Dosed fmprovemeat should nov discouraze is friends. Inall ages there bave been persons, even as prominent os Bacon, who g certain writer has—mnore foreibly than elezantly—described ag hanging on to the shirt-tail of progress aud crying, * Whoa! whoat'” i Wien Bacon, or any other authority, implies thut a knowiedge of the derivation of words in our lanzuage from the many foreizn languages 15, or could be if attained, of sufficient_practical value to the masses of the people to‘offset three or more years of time and study, in additioi to the time and study required to learn thuse lau- guazes, he Jmplies five or ten times more than I am willing to concede. Furthermare, it is not very apparent that the derivation of our words would be * utterly’'— nor even very larzely—!¢ destroyed » by reform spelling. An examination of "Websts Un- abridged Dictionary discloses many—yes, rery tany—words aircady quite differeatly” spelled from the foreizn words from which they were derived; ond yeb their. derivation Las mot thereby been lost! Could mot the compiler of areform-spelling dictionary give the deri- vations, althouzh différently spelled, as well as Webster? A Agaip, in order to be of any value at all to a person to ‘kuow the derivation of our words from the foreign langnages, hé must first under- stand those langnages; for of whas value wonld it be, for instance, to know that our Words “domicle,” ‘* domestie,” etc., were derived from the Latin word domus, without first a THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: SUNDAY.

And what proportion of our people—every one of whom should understond spelling our - own words—ever master even one of the several foreign languages from which oll; wuards n‘re tn] some extent dertved? nd, arain, 4 large proportion of our wor would not be materially changed by ralo‘::: snclling,—that is, not so as to render thein un- reconizable to the student of forejin lan- guares. For instance, “ pedestrian,” * pedal,” ete., from pédes, the foot; “imanufacturé,” from manus, the hand; *corporeal,” from corpus, the body; ‘“solstice,” from sol, the eun’ “lunar,” from {una, the moon; ‘terrestrial, {rom terra, the eartd, ete.. and, I may say, a Jarge proportion of the Enzlish words derived from Latin swould not be rendered a whit less recognizable by reform spelling: and the Latin 15 the only lapguage to which " English deriva- tives to any extent retain identity of spelling Really, then, what dves the gbove Baconian objeetion amount to practically? How much does his assertion of, the result of reform spell- ing lack of belug a pulpable absurdity? Two other objections, oi some seemin plausibility, have been raised against tbe spell- ing reform; and, If agreeable, 1 £hall be peased 10 “have at them " in another erticle.
