Astounding Fashions Soon to be In- augurated—Radical Changes in Gloves, The fashion plates for 1884 just is sued by a prominent firm show a pleas- ing variety in gentlemen's styles and will be hailed with rapture by lovers of the picturesque. In the plate for spring are represented five gentlemen, of ages ranging from twenty to fifty years. The feet of all the figures appear abnormally large. Thinking that this seeming dis- proportion might arise from the fault of the lithographer, a fashionable boot- maker was asked yesterday about tho coming style. He replied: “‘The fashion-plate is correst so far as shoes are concerned, as never before has fashion decreed such large foot wear. 1 am even now making a pair of shoes for a socioty leader. Come and see.” The shoes referred to were simply monsters, but what made them so was not discernible in the picture nor ex- plained by the shoemaker. The shoes were digitated to match the new hose which gives each toe a room to itself. They are regular beauties and had com- fort written all over them. In the plate for summer fashions are the portraits of three well-known young gentlemen of the upper middle class. One of these wears a duster cut in the shape of a swallow tail. It is understood that these dusters will be all the rage at full dreas affairs during the coming sum- mer. Another gentleman holds 1n his hand a white straw hat moulded like unto the high stiff hat. It is a sweet thing, and stylish men anxiously await the 15th day of June, when they can ap- pear on tle streets with comparative safoty in the new style hat. Tho decree has gone forth that mittens shall supersedo gloves on any and all oc- casions where gloves have been heretofore worn, This is a radical chango and a sur- prising one. As yet the order is not generally known, “and several of the closest followers of fashion have ex- pressed ignorance when asked about the matter. Others, however, acknowledged that they had an inkling that such a change would be made, but thoy had no iden that it had already gone into practice. A glover who nas watched the new movement from its inception says that gentlemen will soon become accustomed to the change, and will look back upon the glove with horror and disdain,and sigh for the hours misapent in putting on and pulling off the obstinate kid. Several designs for the incoming mitten were exhibited, and it is astonishing how neat and small they aio, appearing as close-fitting as gloves, yet they slip over the hands with such ease that 1t is pleasure to wear them. e —— PERSONAL.

A Pictare of Dakota Weather Wor- thy of a Gilded Frame, The Late Blizzard Succeeded by Italian Warmth and Sod Plowing, The Wonderful Growth of Town and Country Seductively Bet Forth, Correspondence of the Ber, Canriace, Miner Co., Dak., January 18.—Since the ‘‘cold wave,” that surged in chilling breezes over this as well as other sections of the country, in tho opening week of the new year, when our thermomoters registered from 25 © to 40° below zero, our fair south land has had a return of the mild, beautiful weather of most of last December. Bright, calm days, ranging from 40° to 60° above, are causing the late December snow to vanish from our gentle undulat: ing praries, which are resuming their autumn hues of brown, and walking over the soft, moist furrows of late breaking yesterday, it seemed that but a few mors such days would be required to set the plow again in motion, and for our farmers to complete deferred backsetting even beforo the windy ides of March set in. Our Dakota nights, of late, have been simply perfect, the full moon bathing the plains in light, the snow glistening in fleecy, dinmond-sparkling whiteness bo- neath its 1adiance, and warm north winds occasionally driving snowy masses of clouds southward across the blue sky, studded with brightly shining stars, Our much talked of *‘blizzards” have, thus far, failed to put in an appearance this winter, The eastern scribes who come hither, or rather draw on their in- exhaustible imaginations to picture forth the horrors of theso festive zephyrs, are respectfully recommended to seek the more congenial sphere of Minnesota, and still further east, for the playtul cyclone; they are ‘“‘white elephants” in this locality. In Watertown, Dakota, last winter, the writer witnessed two or threeof what might be called “fair to medium” bliz- zards, in no case lasting over 24 hours, and during the whole winter there was scarcely snow enough there to cover the ground. Last spring here was wet and windy, a8 northern springs generally are in other localities. Breaking was begun in April. Corn and oats were well under way in June. Thousands of acres of virgin sod have been turned over in this section since last spring, which will be sowed mainly to wheat the coming season. The fall was mild and dry, so little moisture as to retard our farmers somewhat in their backsetting, but not to any noticea- ble extent. I came down into Kingsbury county the last of March, and have lived on my land since the Gth of April, and never before enjoyed better health, better sleop or a better appetito since I began what is sometimes, somewhat facetiously, termed “roughing it” in my “little sod shanty on the claim,” One fact alone will speak for itself as to the rigor of the present winter. A ton of coal (cost $8 for Indiana block) has lasted me, in constant residence, since Octobor Gth, and from present in. dications will hold out until March. A few cornstalks and bits of board have been the only supplement. Can dwell- ers in New York or Wisconsin do better? The new year is opening with the most favorable and auspicious indications for a steadily growing and increasing dovelop- ment of this garden spot of Dakota, Our southern tier of counties are rich in every requisite for successful farming; soil, water, climate, nominal taxation, constantly 'extending railroad facilitics, and a thrifty, enterprising, mtelligent and moral people; ready to welcoma every man of brains and energy, bo he rich” or poor, and here he can find a hup\?y, prosperous home. ‘Wheat, last season, ranged from twenty to forty bushels per acre; oats averaged from forty to sixty; considerable flax was raised, which was «old from $1 upward per bushel, and paid enough in most cases to pay for the land on which it was grown after paying all expeuses; pota- toes, turnips, onions, and all root crops, as usual, fairly “shouted,” fum 40 to 50 tubers to a bushel was by »o means uncommon.

There seems to be a great tendency to masquerade this season in Omaha. Why it is wo know not. It may be that under the veil of a false face a flirtation may be carried on with greater ease, and mar- ried men can flirt to their heart's con- tent without being found out. One thing is cortain, there is an unus- ually large number of masquerade balls being given this season. In addition to five or six, which have been given in the past few weeks, there aro still more to follow. This evening occurs the private mas- querade party given by the Omaha Miwn- nerchor society, in Central hall, on Four- teenth street between Douglas and Dodge streets. These parties have been of a public nature in former years, but as a rough and boisterous element attended, much to the dislike of the society, it was determined to make this onoof a private nature, hence no one will be able to purchase a ticket for the ball except he be able to show an invita- tion properly signed by some member of the society. On Wednesday evening next, a mas- querade ball will be given in the German American_hall on Harney street, be- tween Eighteenth and Nineteenth strects. This ball is also of a private character, and it will require an invitation to gain admittance to the hall. FALCONER'S CLERKS, It has been whispered that the clerks in N. B. Falconer’s dry goods store were s00n to give a masquerade ball. If such plans are consummated, all who are for- tunate enough to secure an invitation may rest assured that a most epjoyable time will be had. The party will be held in Walconer’s hall, and as the clerks of this establishment are in the habit of giving nice little parties, thisone is looked forward to with considerable in- terest. We will give the date as soon as announced. OTHER BALLS, On Friday night occurs the ball of the Burns club. It is in honor of the 125th anniversary of the birth of the Scotch poet, Robert Burns, and will be given in Crounse’s hall. The supper will be served in the Tremont restaurant. It will be in the nature of & banquet, and will begin promptly at 8 o'clock. After the banquet dancing will be indulged in. OMAHA TURNVEREIN, On Saturday night, January 26, the Omaha Turnverein will give a party in the new hall on Harney street, between Eighteonth and Nineteenth streets. It willno doubt be of a veay pleasant na- ture, as their parties always are, ESMERALDA UB. The Esmeralda club will close & very pleasant and successful series of parties with a grand leap year party on Thursday evening, January 31, in Masonic hall, This club have had a highly successful and enjoyable season, and the manage- ment may well congratulate themselves, They boys are now all on nettles until they have received an invitation to the leap year party. HE QUACKS.. The Requisition Papers on the Way and They Will Soon Return to Tennersee, L. Reeves and L, C. Turner, the two quack doctors who were arrested on Tuesday by Sheriff Miller, at the request of Sheriff Cannon, of Memphis, Tenn., are still in jail at this place, A Bee reporter met Sheriff Cannon last evening and was shown by that gen- tleman a telegram from the governor of Tennessoe, stating that the requisite papers had been mailed, and they will doubtless reach this ity to-day. Mr. Cannon says that he has followed these fellows for a number of weeks and that he is receiving nothing for his trouble and is obliged to pay his own ex- penses besides. He is doing it more through official pride than anything else. No movement has been made yet to procure the release of the prisoners. i o 2 A. E.
