A French evening gown, remarkable for its beauty and simplicity, is mode of Iight green messallne, trimmed with the meanly point d'Aleneon, laid flat over the shoulders and following a sort cf trellis design down the front to the floor.

The newest mannish waist has taken unto itself a little rippling pep- lum o' Basque not over two inches deep. This is worn with a straight, narrow bell. A wide smelt at the same nude -dal points down at the front and is finished by a Toby frill. This is a distinct inno- vation for the shirt waist. Plain and colored linens, wash silks, and cha11ie5 make up In this style prettily for girls. Women who seek the picturesque may now choose from three distinct styles. The vogue' of princess lines allows Into pretty chatelaine style for slender fig- ures. The straight front pointed stom- acher, the full sweeping skirt, and the broad shoulder effects permit a close imitation of the dignified dress of the Tudors. At the same lime, the short puffed sleeve, the square -cult, deep yoke of the Empire modes make gowns a la Josephine quite correct for the figures that can wear Them. The high-class shops show lengths of cloth, hand-ernbroldered in thls styte, and shaped somewhat, but not exactly, like the robe dresses. I'ar wear at Southern resorts and Wee in the spring, the short coat is indispensable. Indica- tions point toward Empire, and half - coat, half -cape effects, since both styles respond satisfactol'lly to dressy treat- ment. The demand for hand-embroldery upon lace and textiles Is undiminished despite its expense. 'We have seen, and not on one costume merely, but upon scores, roses and chrysanthemums joined by curling stems and leaf -sprays, embroidered In close satin-sthch over a raised filling, and scattered over the en- tire surface of the gown. The work is Indescribably rich upon gowns of cloth or velvet, when embroidered In lustrous silk of the same shade. The finished result Is that quiet elegance so untvcr- sally admired, but so rarely attained. Shoes and oven spats aro• now cap- tives to the spell of the embroiderer. Every high-class shoe shop is showing cloth and suede top shoes gland-embrol- dered in selt'colcr and in flowers of nature's coloring. These beautiful 130015 are worn with visiting goons only.

Binet, of Paris, France, has just mut with an experience which he is like- ly to remember for the remainder of his life. Ha recently made the acquaintance of a young woman aged about 22, with wbon he became so infatuated that he begged her to become his wife. The marriage ceremony took place in Paris, and the wedding dinner was given in a well-known Paris restaurant. The bride looked charming in her white robe of innocence and orange blossom. After the dinner came the ball, and then Mr. 131ne1 took his bride home. She removed her white veil and her orange blossom, and Lhen suddenly be- came deathly pale, and leaning against a sideboard, gasped, "A doctor, a doc- tor." The horrified bridegroom rushed out to torch a doctor, and in less than a quarte of an hour came rushing back with him in a cab. When they got up to 1.110 room there were no signs of the bride, though her wedding goon lay of the bed. She had gone, and had taken with her a sum of $4,000 which M. Binet had put away hi Ills escritoire, The infuriated bridegroom immedi- ately went with the doctor to inform the local pollee magistrate of his adventure, and learned to his astonishment That as he bad married the woman he could not take any proceedings against her, as, according to French law, a husband cannot charge his wife with any crime. real offence. The only thing you can do," said the magistrate, "Is to take proceedings to force ]your wife to return to her conjugal duly.' And with this sorry consolation the bridegroom returned to his solitary home. HE SI'AN Ole ANIMAL LIVE.

Literally speaking, the life of thigh Cragg an of Inniscreenery, charged rec- ently at Belfast Assizes with the mur- der of a farmer named eoihn Gurdiner, hung upon a thread, says the London Leader. The police based their ease upon a human hair, a thread and n whiskey bottle. The two men had attended a sports meeting at Lisnaskea and were suppos- ed to have started together for home. Gardiner was never again seen alive, but there was evidence of a struggle having taken place at Ballynadarragh bridge, over which they would have passed. At this spot Gardine•'s broken ut hrella was picked up the following tl end his dead baly. with a number wounds, was recovered from the riv 1,123 yards below the bridge. The pence investigations succeed to discovering a hair on the parapet the bridge, which, from its appearanc was staled to have been from the rnu Melte of the victim. They also found a thread near t hair, and this, it was alleged by t Crown, wns from the tab of the coat which the prisoner was wearing. An important link in the chain of car, cunislantial evidence was a black whis- key bottle. This, it was stated, was sold to Gardiner at Lisnaskea during the rlay preceding the night on which be met his death, and it was not seen again until produced and opened by the accused al a time subsequent to that at which the murder was staled to have taken place. The medical evidence shoved that Gardiner was not dead when he was thrown into the river. Only one of the injuries on his body was proved to be a wound made before death, which might have been inflict- ed by a blow from a full bottle, but could not have bean caused by an empty one. Prof. Barkl!e, analyist, slated that on the trousers, shirt front and the to cf the prisoner he discovered blood status, which, however, he could not cleterinine to be human. Por the defence, evidence was pro- duced to prove that rowdy scenes had occurred at Ballynadarragh Bridge at a lime after the appearance of Crlggan to the house of a friend, where he brought out the whiskey bottle. About this 11100 cries of distress were heard by those there, comm from the direction of the bridge, So far es the thread was concerned it was shown that it was from a coat similar to those worn in this part of the country by numerous people. in reference to the hair found - four days after the murder -a number of witnesses declared that the Inhabitants, instead of going to a barber shop, oblig- e,l each other by cutting one another hair at the bridge Only the day before the tragedy the deceased cut the hair of a neighbor at this spot. Atter three-quarlers of nn hour's Se - liberations the jury found the prisoner not guilty end he was discharged. One Thousanct Farmers Wanted.
