Dear Louise : You attended the Bat- son Concert last week and to my surprise you informed me that she is becoming very unpopular is this city. You nodoubt judged from the slim attendance last week. *,* I have often heard of Mr. J. Hen- rie Strange and have been very anxious to see bim. I saw and heard him last week in the grand scene between Brutus and Cassius. If one was anxious to witness a bur lesque on Shakespear, the Metro- politan Baptist Chureb, was the place last week: Whatever possess- ed Mr. Strange to take to the stage, { am unable to say. He had uo conception of the piece that he was endeavoring to perform nor did he know how to act. The charch was a room of laughter from the time he begun until he finished. Flannel and silk blouses will be worn with cashmere skirts in the summer. Use either aruche or gathered ruffle on edge of skirt, both five inches deep. A gingham made with a full gathered skirt, high sleeves and a surplice or round waist, with a trimming of embroidery for collar and worn with a canvas belt is very becoming. Light woolen dress goods, India silks, grenadines and ginghams will be the chief dress materials for spring and summer, in gray tan and mode shades principally. A bodice with high sleeves per- fectly plain, fastened invisibly witb hooks down the left shoulder aud under-arm seam 1s among the lat- est. A Visite of black lace witha black Jace hood and long black rib bon ties, will be worn during sum- mer and is an extremely pretty finish to a blaca lace gown. Puritan cuffs and collar, that is deep cuffs coming over the coat sleeves, and a rolling collar of white linen are iu vogue. Buttons are very small and are placed three quarters of an ich apart. The new tailor made bat- tons, having braid buttonbole at- tached, will trim cbeyiots prettily. LUNACY OR IDIOTiSM. St. Paul Appeal. Washington is all torn up be- cause Dr. Shadd, of Howard Um- versity, applied for membership in a medical society and was rejected. The medicos of that and other cities can attend upon a dirty, diseased Afro-American pauper, handle bis decaying body and inhale his poiso- nous breath for a dollar or two, but cannot associate with a cleanly, refined Afro-American gentleman. We hope they will diagnose their own case and decide whether it is lunacy or idiotism. -22e THE HOWLER. (National Advocate.) Rev.
