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.

For five days this ceremony lasted, atr.r which tlie bamboo images of <! vils in their tent pies were burned, A like exorcism took place in San Francisco. A strange people those Chinamen are, but then they think the Christian peo ple strange, and it will be long ere problem will be solved on earth, “which is right V 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 Silver jewelry or silver ornaments of any kind, are entirely out of date, they having been superceded by gilt, Roman gold, and Chinsse jewelry.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.
