An anxious face, and there are | many of them, does not look well out of a white | satin gown. THE COMING CLOAK. Cloaks do not sow so much extravagance or diversity in color this season as last. Cloak ers have been taught a lesson by having y left on their hands, and this year restrict them to black and dark colors (except in the case of opera wraps), with linings to match the outside. A contrast in the lining affects the general tone of the costume and makes the oak less available. Economical women object to it on utilitarian grounds, rich and cuitivated s the quiet influence which is now considered of the first importance in street dress. The new cloaks are both short and long, and there is a decided novelty in the way of a coat that is intended to form part of a winter cos- tume, and with which the dress must harmon- Ize in color. These are now of the half-length garments in the new styles—the Havelocks. or garments of that kind—a good thing, for they | are heavy without being protective, and are ab- | solutely destitute of distinction, no matter how rich the material. A visit to a great m turing house, recently, revealed one fact, and that is how large a proportion of the finest cloaks are made in New York from desizns | originate here that are credited with t from Paris or Vienna. This port a single cloak. It em- its own designer, who Is, however, a for- eigner, and he supplics at least a dozen new patterns for the scason, each one distinctive, and several of which are sure to possess the cachet of experienced Parisian taste. The pro- prietor says he could not wait to import cloak he must lead, not follow the market. Besides which the difference in the price between the im- ported and home-made garment {sso great that he can seli_ (wholesale) ten times as many as he formerly could of the high cost cloaks, and en- able the dealer to make more sales and larger profits. ‘To the finest cloaks two tickets are at- tached. one foreign, one genuine, and the dealer uses, that is leaves upon the garment which he pleases. The material, the cut, the finish of | these cloaks equals the richest imported, and are, indeed, sold for genuine French importations by some of the best houses. The women who work on fine cloaks are a superior class of operators, «d earn good wages—from $7 to $15 weekl. Mea are employed only to do the cutting, press ing. and packing into boxes. About’ 50,000 cloaks are turned out of this one establishment during the manutacturing season of three ns, the price of which averaze (wholesale) |. man of them selling at retail from When the fati season of manufae- is over the working force is put upon hlike Miss Ellen Terry's gown, at least, in effect.

Beading is not, however, much used upon cloaks. It is too striking for good taste. Clasps made of carved wood, smoked pearl, or oxydized metal are mach used, At the back, what Is technically known as a “saddle” ornament, is almost universally placed on a line with the waist. ‘The short cloaks are very dressy. They are still cut high on the shonlder and parta ce ofthe @lman style. Some of them display shoulder ornaments with pendants, strap shaped; those tor cloth made ot braided cord with hanging | balls; the richer ones ot silk and chenilie, with pendant olives. The fashionable fringe ‘is of chenille, with small bead points, and is known as “leach” fringe from the similarity of the sinall, twisting, squirming strands to the reptile ofthat name, It is made of double and triple rows for the elegant short cloaksor ottoman aud terry velvet brocade, lined with satin or tin radizmer, which will serve as wraps tor evening and visiting purposes on white or black. A quite new design has a deep vest front, a basque back, and lonz continental cloak lap- pels, which reach nearly tothe foot of the dress upon its sides and rarrow gradually down without arriving at a point. The skirt may be of cloth or slik. but must match the coat in color. It should be pleated in front and the fulness‘draped at the back, as the basque ad- mite ofa moderate tovrneur. The mode!s are made In cloth end trimmed with plush, with plush collarette, and ¢lasps to fasten at the throat and waist. A novel attachment to one of the prettiest of the new dolman cloaks is an oval in front trimmed like the rest of the gar- ment with chenille “leech,” or tasseled fringe, and also lined, bat which by the simple arrange- ment of a Joop and bution becomes @ very dainty muff.

The effect Is very fine and less prodounced. than might be imagined, the goldthread being almost invisible. NEW DRESS TRIMMINGS. Chenille is an important element in the trim- mings of the season. Both the flat ones for dresses and the fringes for mantles. In the pas- sementeries it is combined with beading, and soft and twisted silk cord producing the effect ot rich embroidery, or with the cords alone for those who do not like the beaded effects. Beads Tike chenille maintain an acknowledged plac Dut are used only in costly designs and upen rich fabrics by women of taste. Cheap and com- mon beaded laces and other trimmings of the same ciass used upon ordinary street materials vulgarize instead of enriching them. The finest trimmings are now maie in this country, copied trom foreign patterns by foreign workmen and workwomen, and often stamped with a foreign mark. Not the showy embroideries alone, but the richest passamenteries and combinations of gimp with embroidery ot beads and chenilie, or gold thread and chenille. The favorite and most lashionable patterns are rings and wheels, the former sometimes overlapping each other and graduated in size, the latter with epen and cro- chetted center and gradually enlarging radius of twisted and satin finished cords upon wagich pretty designs In beads and cheiille are €xe- cuted. There are also slender, leaf like patterns united tozether, so as to form a continucus line or border ifnecessary, but capable of separa- tion into different ornaments, which may te placed upon the shoulders, at the back, dpon the sides, or front of dresses. Fringes are reserved for mantles and cloak They are not used for dresses; at least, not as generally or as stylishly as the flat passemente- | mes. The newest fringeconsists of stall pointed | tails of chenille, with or without a bezd upon the end ot each strand. They are made in one or more rows and cost from ‘seventy-five cents to 5 per yard. newest style is “leech” fringe, because the strands aré shaped like leeches and twist and squirm ina way stronzly suzgestive of these snaky little reptiles. The majority of the ex- pensive flat trimmings are made so that the de- sien will form complete ornaments, which ean be separated from each other and used in their ched form upen skirt and bodice. In this way a small quant rd is sufficient to trim a dre fication when the st ranges this seeminzly insignificant amount. The beauty and striking character of the new_ trimmings adapts them to distinetive and individual purposes much more than to the formationol continuous lines. When ornamentation isan integral part of the cos- tume the work is done on the materis!; when made separate it is more fashionable to put it on in apptique pr 3 something pure! decorative. ‘The walking dress pure and simp! is not now fashionab ed atall. It is welleutand neatly made in asolld material | riehly Ii vut extericrly it is plain asain The | tween the t of mantles and the dol- | man garments used for the half season and dresses. The leech fringes are almost univer- sally used tor the dolmans and mantles en suit aceompanied by detached ornamentation in pas- sementerie for shoulders, the back and front of the body-part of the garment. The “saddle” ornament, named from its division into two out- spread sides trom the short center, is the popu- lar ornament for the back of cloaks and suits, and is composed of the cords and beads or chenille, or ail three, which form the rest of the trimming. Sometinies these ornaments form clusters of tongue-shaped leaves, held by a long corded caterpillar in the center. Others are | shaped more like enlarged butterflies. Velvet | butterflies, veined with gold, are handsome, but they are less useful than the ornaments com- posed of solid braided cord, with small hanging ball attachments which are well made and grace- ful. The novelty in buttons is very peculiar. It forms at the same time a button and hook-and- eye at the back. It does away with the use of buttonholes. The form of the button has here- tofore been limited to the necessity for passing through the buttonhole. It had to be round or oblong, and within certain limits as to size. The new buttons are not large, but there is infinite variety in the design. There are butter- | flies and helmeted heads, metal figures and soldiers, knights on horseback rescuing fair maids, and girls carrying rotls of music. The design is purely oriamental. The hook-and- eye at the back performs the work of fastening. Clasps, too, are used for suits instead of buttons—one at the throat; one at the line of the waist. The work ot fastening further is aided by Invisible hooks-and-eyes. The clasps are of carved wood or bronzed’ metal and are used also for cloaks and jackets or dolmans. Y JUNE. a ARABIAN NIGHTS NODERNIZED, Digging for Miliions of Dotlars on the Say-s a Gypsy. From the Germantown (0,) special to Cincinnati En- quirer, A true story comes from the country, two and a half miles northwest of here, that resembles in many particulars the narrations contained inthe “Arabian Nights.” It is as follows:Thirty years ago John Brixner, a farmer residing in the lo- cality mentioned, went to Dayton on business. While there he visited a fortune teller. He was told that on his farm there were varied gold and silver enough to fill seven barrels. The wealth was said to have been concealed by the owners at the time when the country was in its infancy so in the possession uf the Indians. The sure was described as representing several millions of dollars, The farmer was informed that no one else than the eldest son of the owner of the farm could obtain possession of the pre- cious me Farmer Brixner’s eldest son was dead, and ides that he didn’t take any stock in ghost stories. So he didn’t bother his yener- able head abcut the matter. In time the sens- ible old tiller of the soil was gathered to his fathers. He left-behind him to mourn his loss a bumber of sons and daughters, who are still nz, and who, it turns out, are more easily gulled than the ancient granger was. Last week a band of gypsies encamped in the vicin- ity of the Brixner homestead and one of the women ofthe gang called at the house to turn She proposed, for the consid- eration of a dollar, to reveal a secret worth millions of dollars to the family. It occurring to the Brixner’s that the interest offered by the hag wasa fair one. the coyeted dollar was paid. The woman in red then proceeded to give the good folks pretty much the same gaff that the fakir in Dayton had delt out to old John Brix- ner thirty years ago. The gypsy made an im- provement, however. She declared that it did not require that the oldest son must search for the untold wealth to insure snecess. She said that some other son could find it. Tne story jJingled so niceiy with what had been related to the level-headed deceased farmer, that the family swallowed it hair andall. They, of course, peddied it out to their neighbors, and every-body atonce became consumed with feverish excitement.The next thing to do was to turn the hills topsy-turvy, and in one night they he fairyqueen pointed out the spot where the treasure was lo- | cated but she claimed that there was only one hour in the day when the wealth could be touched by human hands. She asserted that the money in question was In the habit of sink- ing so deep inthe earth that no mortal could reach it, but that In twelve hours from the time it attained its greatest. depth it would just be beneath the surface. where it would remain just one brief hour, when it would begin to descend. tlhe in cheaiits Or | To be certain of striking the money when it bobs up serenely the digzers are constantly at work, day and night. The psuedo miners are Gotleib Bower, a son-in-law of old man Brixner; Chris Brixner, a son of old John, and Fred Kerchner, Chris's brother-in-law. So far as the story given above is concerned relative to the fairy tales of the fortune tellers and the actions of the per- sons digging for the gold and silver is con- cerned, there is no discount on it, but there are people in the neighborhood who are so unrea- sonable as to say that they believe the fortune- tellers must have been hitting the pipe. —_—_—_—_---______ Women in Slecping Cars. Aman can get intoa berth and shuck him- selt very comfortably. He can stand on his knees and duck his head and take off some of his clothes, and then he can lie downon his shoulders or the back of his neck and kick off other articles of wearing apparel, because when the buttons are unbuttoned his clothes are liable to come off inthe dark as in the light. But it is different with a woman. Her clothes are pinned on with ali kinds ot pins, from the safety-pin to the darning needie, tied on with strings, hooked on with hooks and eyes, buck- Jed on with buckles, and put on in many ways only known to the fair sex.

FASHIONS FOR INFANTS. The Latest Idez. for Tickling Parental Vanity. te Quaint little wicker cradles, says the Morning Journal, in the style of thirty years ago, are in fashion. They are placed on low rockers made of solid wood, and have curved canopy tops. Some of them are in designs of slippers, canoes and hammocks, and all of them are run with wide blue satin ribbons and lined with silk of the same delicate shade. Large feather pillows are now used for carry- ing very young babies about. They are covered witha spread made of delicate pink, biue or white satin, with one corner turned back and embroidered in a cluster of daisies, violets or forget-me-not. The spread is bordered with lace, which is sometimes run with narrow yel- vet ribbon. Little pink velvet slippers, worn with white silk socks, are fashionable for little girls of two. Crimson ties are worn by boys of the same age. The newest babies’ bibs are quiited with the word “baby,” and bordered with Valenciennes lace. Some of them reach to the waist and fasten behind by the aid of long white ribbons. All the imported baby caps are of white or blue and lined with silk of the same shade. Carriage pillows are now made in the shape ofa butterfly, the back being broad enough for ahead rest. The covering is of satin and silk, and the wings are frequently embroidered. They have a quaint effect as they flare up on either side, aud are a protection against dust and drafts. Does a Man Own His Head? From the Medical and Surgical Reportc® One of the questions which an Englishman re- cently left his heirs to quarrel over was the right to his head. The deceased had sold it to the local physician in consideration of his pay- ing the funeral expenses, and when the time came for the delivery to be made, he called forit but the heirs, who said they were perfectly willing to pay the funeral expenses themselves, demurred, andrefused to carry out the agree. ment. The aid ofthe courts was then invoked, and atlast accounts the matter was not de- cided. In the meantime, the value of the head for purposes of dissection, if that is what the physician wanted it for, is rapidly diminishi and soon will be of no value whatever. The English courts have at various times held that there could be no property, in the ordinary sense in which the term is used, in a dead body; and the interesting question ‘now comes up whether the ownership, such as it is, is vested in the person himself or in his representative: a Coffin Handles.
