SIMPLICITY. AND ELEGAXtK IX RSI A LAMB.

There Is an undeniable air of distinction about a fur coat that a tailorJnade suit never, seems to impart in the same degree. A coat seen recently ,at the opening of a famous New York cafe was particularly noticeable in the stunningly dressed crowd. Baby lamb pelts of the very finest quality were used in this garment. It was beautlfuly cut. with lines suggesting rather tan .revealing the figure, and giving the appearance of slenderness and height to the wearer. The low front closing, the handsome jeweled buttons, and the side slash, laced with ribbons, were all noticeably good features. A. hat of gold cloth and black velvet, trimmed with full white aigrette, was worn with this coat.)

garten children sang a few songs. A MUSICAL ENTERTAINMENT. Mrs. Abbie A. Ford entertained a large number of Hammond people last evening in the parlors of the First Presbyterian church at a concert.

She was assisted by Mrs. Sourbeer who sang "Where Is the Heart," another of Mrs. Ford's compositions.

The entertainment was not as largely

Then is produced a scene several years later, when Enoch is about to depart In th vessel for foreign ports of commerce. At which time, as we know, he met with shipwreck and was

stranded on a lonely Island for ten

years. In this scene he is bidding his wife and their three children a sad farewell. One of the children Is a babe in the cradle. Another seen shows Annie weeping in her poverty-stricken home just after the burial of her babe, and Philip entering to offer her financial assistance for herself and children. For Enoch's sake and for her own, after much reluctance, she accepts. Then as the years go by and no word is heard of Enoch. Philip, who has always loved Annie, prevails upon her to marry him. After waiting- almost two more years for her to fully decide in her heart that Enoch is dead, she marries Philip. Then is presented a scene showing Enoch, a forlorn shipwrecked sailor on the lonely isle. In tatters and rags, and hair and beard grown prematurely white. ' A later scene where after ten years Enoch is rescued from the Island to

Enoch in eagerness to look upon her face again, and the faces of his children, is shown looking in upon them from a window at night, where they are all together in a happy family group. Not wishing to ever let her know that he is alive, he slips away heart broken and prostrated to his tavern. Here he lingers along for awhile but becomes so desperately ill from carrying such a burden of grief, that h realises his death is near at hand and calls the woman of the tavern, who watches
