Sharp Criticism. London, Aug. 17. —The Pall Mall Ga zette comments on the "cxMaordin.Cv action of the Germans In assisting the (light of Augustl from Manila.” in P'rots similar to those used by tbe Times. It sharply erltic sra the pro ceeding, drawing attcnllta to it in the similarity to the German action during the British bombardment of Zanzibar when the usurping Sultan sought ref uge at the German consulate. The Ga zette says: "This Manila Incident t» uneomonly nigh a flagrant, breach of neutrality and is certain to be rcitordcd as inter national discourtesy if nothing else." My Lady's Slippers. My lady’s slipper sees a very radical change this summer. It is no more plain and unadorned, no longer does a simple little bow or unobtrusive ro sette ornament it. Instead, tjje slip per is now a very gorgeous affair. It glistens, both by sunlight and the gleam cf gas or electricity, for It is a jeweled slipper, and oftener than oth erwise elaborately jeweled. The style is to have these slipper jewels match the pin or necklace you are wearing, both in the gems themselves and in the setting. When fantastic and curious designs are worn, in oddly finished gold, the effort is exceedingly pictu resque. and attractive. Rhinestones are to be favorite slipper ornaments of the'sumin“r. diamonds being of course' ton valuable to be allowed to twinhie carelessly on one’s foot. The ornament most admired will be a gold or jeweled bit ’yle. either large or gmail. This will rest upon a bow or rosette of satin, and will be of many quaint and odd designs. Philadelphia Timex.
