FASHION LETTER.

New Tailor-Made Skirt—Great Variety in Bodices and' Coats—Blouses as Popular as Kver. :

|Special New York Correspondence.]

New tailor-made costumes of the season show gored or short circularskirts, less flaring from the knee down than they have been, and, with the natty open coats en suite, present an unusual amount of unique and novel effects in their composition. These models at the : tailors’ and modistes’ seem to ‘have distributed themselves with wonderful equality considering the partisanship generally shown by women fn matters of dress. Those who have already tired of the popular styles just mentioned, the Etons, princess, Russlan and other long and short coats with gored or circle skirts, are electing for the draped models with pointed bodice above, or the Greek princess dress opening on the left side over a moire’ or- other handsome underskirt, the upper portion of the dress arranged with all the bretelles, cape-collars, revers, huge mutton leg sleeves, and ‘other accessories made use of on less classic e R gowns.

KELLY IN DES MOINES.

Pitiable Condition of the Induastrials on

Reaching lowa’s Capital.

Des MoiNEs, la., April 80.—This city is greatly excited by the arrival of Kelly’s industrial army and there are fears of an outbreak of some sort. The men had marched 27 miles Saturday night without food and were held by the police 5 miles out of the city in a driving rainstorm all day with no provisions or shelter. The action of the suthorities aroused much indignation among the laboring people, and when at 5 o’clock the army finallky marched up Grand avenue to the camp on the east side of the town, wet, haggard and weary, their pitiable condition aroused sympathy almost as great as that which was theirs in Council Bluffs. - e

While Kelly’s army, shattered by a wild wind and rainstorm into isolated groups was stumbling and falling througl:’s’}?he intense darkness over the Rock Bland right of way and wagon yoads from Van Meter, 19 miles from Des Moines, several carloads of policemen and deputies assembed at Valley Junction, just outside of the city limits, to halt the army and bring it through Des Moines under guard. As' fast as the marchers walked into Valley Junction they were halted and corralled, and then moved to Walnut creek east of the junction. ; g :

The food given by the city had been taken to the stove works, 7 miles away, and not a mouthful was given to the hungry, weary men until the afternoon, when enough- food for one company was sent. down by the eitizens' committee in charge of Gen. J. B. Weaver. When Kelly appeared he was told that no rations would be

issued * until the army was in barracks in the stove works. He told the mayor that his men had marched 19 miles through rain and mud without food; and it would be cruelty to compel them to march 7 miles more with empty stomachs. A But the city officials were firm, and at'4 o’clock Gen. Kelly mounted his horse and the army moved on to Des Moines. :

The mayor had refused to give the labor unions a permit for a reception parade, but Kelly’s ~men had the largest escort through Des Moines ever accorded them. At the head of the column was a carriage in which sat Mayor Hillis, Chiet of Police Johnson and Sheriff McGarragle, of Polk county. ' Behind the carriage was Gen. Kelly on Lis proudly-stepping hors®, with Gen. Weaver in a buggy riding beside him. Back of Gen. Weaver and on the left flank of the column was a column of carriages, buggies, cabs and other vehicles, four abreast and three blocks long, for everything on wheels had been pressed into service by the curious people of Des Moines, and 3,000 citizens saw the army at Walnut creek. Each company had two police officers at the head and a platoon of -police brought up :the rear. The line of march was east- on Greenwood boulevard to Grand avenue. 'They presented a sad spectacle as they moved between the costly houses of Greenwood boulevard, and those who came to laugh at a lot of human scarecrows with cranky ideas became serious and many women cried as the miserable column passed along. .

The men were halted twice for rest on the march across the city, and it was - after = 7:30 o’clock when they marched into the stove -works. Many of them threw themselves on the floor utterly played out, but a good supper brought back strength and spirits. : Kelly may leave Des Moines Tuesday and he may not for a week. Ie is determined not to march out of Des Moines and he declared he would not under any circumstances steal a ‘train: In'. short' 'he . propeses to stay where he, ~is until a train is given him with the knowledge and consent of the railroad. If necessary he will starve, he said, but he will wait for that train. General Superintendent Dunlap, of the Rock Island road, said that the policy of the road toward Kelly’s army or like bodies of men would not change. It could not ride over his road for less than full pu’ssengér fare. Officials of all the other roads spoke as he did.

CAN SEE THE DOME. Coxey’s Army in Caxi:p on the Outskirts E of the Capital. * WASHINGTON, April = 30.—Coxey’s army is camped within 5 miles of the white house and the people of Washington are wondering why something has not occurred. . The feeling of dread which prevailed a week ago has entirely. disappeared. Thousands of persons surged through the white gates of Brightwood park .Sunday afternoon. and ‘‘crossed the palm” of Mr. Jonathan B. Osborne with silver coins of various denominations much as they would have paid to see a ¢ircus, The total receipts for the day amounted to more than $3OO. The army numbers in all about 400'men. - . g

When the commonweal army marched l into Rockville Saturday night it was greeted with three cheers by the Jones contingent, which had just completed its long march from Philadelphia. At %7 a m. Sunday the march to this city began. At the District of Columbia line a great concourse of people was waiting to welcome the army. Among others were a score of , cavalrymen and several mounted patrolmen, who swung into the line as : an advance guard. There was little or no cheering. The spectators, many of whom rode in carriages driven by liv- ‘ eried coachmen, seemed interested and curious, but not ac¢ all enthusiastic. A United States senator in a trap lifted his hat gravely as Coxey drove by and the salute was returned by the general. . , : i i Just inside of -the line a halt was called and the'flags and banners, including “‘The. Three Graces,” were brought from the panorama wagon and distributed. Browne proposed three cheers “for the District of Columbia, the asylum for the oppressed of all nations, including the people of the United States,’”’ and the men responded with a will. | Then the bugle sounded and the march was resumed. * The street was u solid mass of men and women. :

It was shortly .after 1 o’clock when the army marched into Brightwood park. - 1 : :

All the street cars were loaded to overflowing all the afternoon. A larger crowd never before in the history of the city set out toward the park. Fully 8,000 persons must have. visited the army in its quarters during the day. Mrs. Coxey and Legal Tender, the general’s youngest child, reached Washington Sunday afternoon. They will play an important part in the parade.

Her name is, Maggie Wood. and her:home is the big stone lighthouse one sees.when-at Mariner’s harbor, Staten -Island, or sailing down the bay. T 5 This girl lives away from all other children; her chief pastime is in watching the boats pass, and in hearing the sounds Which come across the waves. On_cledr days in summer, standing out on the stene pier of the lighthouse, she can hear the childrén of the picnic excursions sing as they go down the bay. In winter she wraps up warmly and stands as far out as the rough winds will allow and waves her apron to the sailors on the boats who wave a reply back. ‘Sometimes they blow their steam whistles for her, and. sometimes, for tley know how she loves musie, they shout sea. songs or blow upon a flute. - . Every day Maggie's aunt, and uncle, with whom she lives; see that she has her regular lessons; she has realschool books which her uncle brings heme on his rare visits to the city. Shé :is not at all an unlearned child. She draws and paints a’little, and her favorite work is to sketch the old stone lighthouse. . : ~ As soon as school hours are over Maggie puts on her cloak, draws its little hood up over her head and hurries out to play upon the pier. She has 160 feet of stone platform for a play-

Towzer is a brown ‘water spaniel, and he has the record of saving just as many lives as Maggie numbers years to her life; so that the little sea girl has a real hero for a companion and playmate. . oo ;

; I'requently Maggie’s uncle takes her out in the lifeboat and lets her fish-and ’ play in the water. Sometimes an ex- | citing event -occurs. Maggie takes a " hand in a “‘greatrescue.”. A bird, sick | or wounded, will hover over the water | or fall in the waves, and then Maggie » and her uncle row out where it is fluttering. and pick up the poor little thing, and carry it to *land” as tenderly as if it were 2 human being. When the bird gets well it is let go again; and that is _another exciting event. : : | b‘()ne day last summer Maggie had a . great adventure. She had gone outon | the pier to set free a sea-gull whieh' . had had a broken wing. It had been ! shot at by some sportsman and left to . die on the waves. Maggie had carried it into the lichthouse and taken cdre of it until its wing was strong. Then as the gtll seemed unhappy, she had resolved to let itgo. She freed it just “as a flicht of gulls swept past. In a ~minute it had gone, disappearing with “the others. But ‘only for a minute eould the bird keep on its proud course; ‘then it flew more slowly; gradually it . sank to the surface of the waves." ° Quick-as thought Maggie untied the ! boat, and drawing - long, sweeping strolres, she pulled out all alone to the _ spot where the bird lay'in. the water . and broucht him baédk agunin to the: lighthouse. Now he has becomea fam- | ily pet and never flies very far away. - The hero, Toéwzer, is an exeellent bird dog. Dut he has an odd trait.

I say, then, | after you have-made the puzzle try and | solve it.beforé you read up the explana- | tions. - s i. Take a piece of hard wood, an inch t wide and six inches long. At half an { mech from either end make a brad-awl ' hole. Inthe middle eut out’ a small ' oval hole. Procure stwo glass beads, | which must be too large to pass through I the oval hole. Tale a piece of twine | about eighteen inches long, double it | at the middle and pass the loop through | the oval hole, and then pass: the .two | ends of the twine through the ldop. | Take a bead and thread it on one of . the ends of the twine, and .fasten that i end to one of the brad-awl holes. ‘Do |‘the same with the other bead-and end - of twine, and fasten at the opposite i brad-awl hole. = ‘ ' Your puzzle is now ' complete, and | ought to appear like the diagram. The ‘puzzle is to get the two beads togeth-* “er. - This, seeing they are too large to | pass through the oval hole, is not easy. i " ExprLaxATiON.—Draw down the cen- ' ter loop and pass the right-hand bead f through it toward the oval hole. Then | take. the two strings passing through ! the ‘oval hole and draw them toward | you: The loop will be drawn through thé hole from the opposite side, but it t will now be adoug\)le‘ one. Pass the bead through to the left and let slack. ‘The bead will now be confined by a single laop. = Pass it through again to | the left; and there you are. To part. | the beads again, ‘reverse the order of | procedure. i i~ If you wish to make a more ¢ompli|‘eated puzzle, you have only to add to | the length of the strip of wood; but, in | making the holes, remember they must 'run. alternately — beginning with a {‘bradatwl hole, then an oval heole, a | bradawl hole again, and so on, finish- | ing with a bradawl hole. - i. You may form as many ‘“loops” as youlike, and amuse yourself by get- | ting all the beads on any one particu- ' lar loop. Or you may astonish your | friends -by. asking them ‘how many | beads they would like placed on any | particular loop.” : e | - Youretire to.a secluded corner of the " room, or ,place your -hands under the ? table, and lo! the *‘passage” is cffected. | Let your friends plainly understand | the beads will nof ‘pass through the P oval holes. By the way, if you use a | number yof beads, the twine must be ' continuous, without knots, and-care- | fully looped into each oval hole.— | Golden Davs. '

MOCKING-BIRD MUSIC. Expgriéncw of .Mr. Theodore Roosevel : Down'’in Tennessee. : Mr. Theodore Roosevelt expresses the opinion that the musical reputation of the mocking-bird suffers greatly from its habit of mimicry. On ordina’y occasions, and. -especially in: the daytime, it plays the harleqpin, but at night, during the love seas%qit has ‘'a song, or rather songs, which are not only purely original, but also more . beautiful 'than any other bird music whatsoever.” ~Once, near Nashville, , he heard a mocking-bird sing in a way that he can never forget. He thus describes his experience: - * ° The moon was full. My host kikdly assigned me a room the -windows of which opened on a great magnoliatree, where I svas told, a mocking-bird sang.every night, and all night'long. I went to my room about ten oleiock. The moonlight was shining in through the open window, and the mockingbird was already in the magnolia. "The great tree was bathed in a-flood of shining silver; I could see cach twig, and mark -every action of 'the singer, who was pouring forth such a rapture of ringing melody as I have never listened to before or since. |

Sometimes he would perch motionless for many minutes, his body quivering and thrilling with the outpour of musie. Then he would draop softly from twig to twig until the lowest limb was rea¢hed, when he would rise. fluttering and -leaping through the hranches, his song never ceasing for an instant, until he reached the summit of the tree and launched into the warm, - scent-laden ‘air, floating in spirals, with.outspreaf{l wings, until, as if spent, he sank gently back into the tree .and down through the branches, while his song rose into an eestasy of ardor and passion. ; His voicerang like a clarionet in rich, full tones, and his execution covered the widest possible compass; theme followed themé, a torrent of music, a swalling tide of harmony, in which sca‘r.'c%ly any two bars were alike.

" I stayed until midnight listening to him; he was singing when I went to sleep; “he was still singing when I wolke two hourslater; he sang through the livelong night. ‘ Allce Was a Diplomat. Ay little girl goes to sleep so nicely every night when 1 sing to “heér, don't you, Alice?”’ said Mrs. Sereamer. ‘Yes, mamma,” -answered Alice. But when mamma left the room Alice said sadly: “I said yes, but-it was a fib. 1. close my eyes so mamma’ll think I'm asleep and will stop. She sings so badly!” ° S e ! : Disappointeds ~ Mpr.
