Cheap Dresses Make Hit.

New York.—Twenty-seven of the 243 girls who were graduated from the Washington Irving high the other night received their diplomas wearing dresses some of which cost as little as 72 cents and none more than one dollar. Among the other 216, some bad on dresses that cost as high as $75. More than 1,000 persons were present, but not one person was found who was able to pick out one of the 27 girls whose dress had been made complete for less than one dollar.
