The Last Jpushi'jn i'll* II eddinj in
Oo h im. — Vnlexchange says :
Herbert C. Crane, wlio lost ten
thousand dollars on the Harvard
boat race, was married in New York,
last week, to Miss Nellie Lansing.—
The engagement was formed at West
Point in August last, and was first
announced to the world of fashion at
a dinner party given by Mis3 Lan
sing's parents, after their return to
town, in honor of the alliance. The
engage ni nt ling was made from an
original a- sign of Mr. Crane’s by a
1.5r0a 1 way j iweler, at a cost of twen
ty-five hundred dollars, and is deci
dedly massive and unique. The ring
is of plain, solid gold, and on the in
side is the customery Romeo and Ju
liet inscription set in “small dia
monds!” An immense solitaire is
exquisitely set in the outside, and two
interwoven hearts are carved in the
center. The ring is very large. The
wedding-invitation concluded with
“No presents will be received.” The
bride’s toilette was of white uncut
velvet. The cut and -train, also the
low cut corsage, were most elaborate
ly trimmed with point lace, and the
dress throughout was lined with white
satin quilted. Large pear beads
circled the neck of the bride, and or
naments of pearl were suspended
from her ears and clasped her wrists.
The bridegroom was attired in the
English costume. He wore a Prince
Arthur coat, light trowsers, high Ox
for collar, blue Lord Stanley scarf,
and lilac kid gloves. Amos rose
bud enjoyed .1 position in a button
hole in the left breast of his coat,
and in his hand lie held a cane and
an opera “crush” hat. The brides
maids were dressed in white tulle.

NOTES FOIT'rBE LADIES.
Chinese fans and jewelry are all the
rage, and even Chinese braids are in vogue,
slightly modified, however, by being grace
fully h oped up.
Velvet muffs, bound with fur, are the la
test novelty, and promise to be fashionable
this winter.
Large lace collars (such as our grando
mothers used to don) are again in vogue,
and when over a light silk dress the effect
is beautiful.
Is is a noticeable fact that real black
lace veils are coming in fashion.
Silver jewelry or silver ornaments of any
kind, are entirely out of date, they having
been superceded by gilt, Roman gold, and
Chinsse jewelry.
Evening dresses of very light silks will be
most worn this season—tarlatan and tulle
having been given over to very young girls.
White plush and cashmere open cloaks
are very fashionable. Stewart has just im-<
ported from Pam some that are very beaus
tiful.
