The Proper Thing For the Masculine Gender During the Coming Season. Clothier and Furnisher: he Prince Albert cont seefns to be coming strong for morning wear in London in a variety of rough faced cloths, The general adoption under these conditions is apt to be more prevalent than ever, for the new material is better adapted to in- formal wear than the fine broadcloths and diagonals that have been the rule.g The views of a number of the swell tailors that presage a rovival of thatdis- tingue garment, the single breasted Prince Albert, may be, under the cir- cumstances, received with an unusual measure of credence, The Tuxedo coat may be worn in the evening during the summer without the waistcont. A black surah or satin sash is substituted upon these occasions. A black tie to match is worn with the sash. 1t is not good form to wear a black silk cravat or sash with the swallowtail eont. A high silk hat must accompany the last mentioned garment, though with the dress sack coat a black straw nat or derby may be worn. Nothing in the na- ture of negligee wear save the'sash— and under the conditions mentioned— st appear with evening dress. During this intermediate season of cool weather gloves have been worn by the votaries of swaggerdom en promenade. The correct walking glove at this scason appears to be an undressed kid of tan shade, with self-colored braid upon the back. During the summer, as at any other time, gloves must be worn by the men with evening dress. The metal Leaded oanes seem to tend in their decoration to repousse work in silver or a tracing of the silver in ervatic designs upon the natural wood sticks, Some very unique results are obtained by the laiter method. A new kink is to have the buttons of the waistcont match the shirt studs. A very chaste effect is obtained when white enameled studs are worn in the full dress shirt by having the waisteoat buttons also in a similar white enamel pattern. The gold scarfpin is in comport with the best taste nowadays. In knot or ball designs it is most distinguishe and ef- fective. The midget scarf pins, too, seem to have entirely gone out of fashion. The demand for rain coats has been greatly increased and the artistry of the manufacturers has kept pace with the dressiness of the times. A mackintosh, nowadays, in place of the ungainly wa: terproof or sou’wester, is one of the most presentable garments in a man’s ward- robe, There has been recently put upon the arket a new standing collar, made es- becially to be worn with full d It is but little over an inch in height at the back, but rises percoptibly higherin front. The style is straight up, the ends almost meeting in front. The introduction of the turndown col- lar with full dress will be more general this coming summer, The negligee in- flux and influence will create a more marked feeling for comfort in warm weather and although the standup collar is pre-eminently en vegle for full dress, there will be many that will yield a point in style for the solace that the turndown collar will impart. B Marriage of De Lessep's Danghter. On Saturday, at Paris, Mlle. Fer- nanda de Lesseps, eldest daughter of tho great engineer. was marvied to her cousin, Counte Ferdinand de Gontaut- Biron, says the London Standard. The wedding, our correspondent suys, was extremely quiet, A consequence of an announcement in the papers that it had been postponed, no crowd gathered about the Nuncinture, where the re- ligious ceremony was celebrated. Con- trary to expectation Queen Isabella was not present, but she was represented by her major domo, the Marquis de Villa Segura. The bride, who has fine black eyes and a qery interesting face, was dressed in white faille, trimmed with old English lace. Her three sisters, the bridesmaids, wore o blug The pages of honor were the bride’s oounger brothers. They had court dresses. Mme. de Lesseps in silver gray wore the grand insignia of honor and a number of other crosses and s The compnny was for the greater part composed of the members of the two families and their relatives. M. de Lesseps seemed in good health, ahd recoived the congratuia- tions of the company in his old lively manner. The bride avd bridegroom have left for Egypt. o Judges With Short Hair, It is well known that judges wear v hair very short, says the London A judge who is still on the bench relates an amusing incident which happened to himself when he was on circuit in the south of England.
