Newport, July 29.—Whatever othor
places may boast of in tho way of fashion
and attraction, there is nothing in this
country, or any other, quite like Newport.
It has never teen “boomed"’ like Lenox;
prices of real estate, here have never “gone
uo” in the startling fashion of some other
younger yet more pretentious resorts; yet
as a permanently attractive summer city,
Newport may always be counted upon; no
other possessing its peculiar combination of
modern luxury with quaint, old-time, village
simplicity, and no other the wealth of old
trees and fine driving roads, with the extent
and beauty of beach and shore.
Newport has a history. Not much of a
one to bo sure, beside the old historic and
legendary associations which impart the
charm to so many European resorts, but.
enough to give it varied interest, to rid it of
that' exasperating faculty of “newness”
which is so conspicuous a feature of our
life. There is a staid, and settled, and sober
element rack of its aspect of luxury, which,
after all, shows less in gilding and display
than in tho air of finish, which we know in
this country means cost. Money has been
gradually accruing in Newport,* till it has
become a summer home for only the Vry
wealthy; but it is not so much the cost of a
cottage in Newport, us the cost of living in
it, which limits its availability.
Naturally there are “cliff” sites and
avenue '‘blocks” which foot up to enormous
rates; but there aro numerous pretty and
shaded streets, lined with charming, villa
like residences, which cost a thousand or
fifteen hundred dollars to rent for three
months, but can lie bought—when occas
toually one is for sale—for from §19,000 to
§13,000. with a frontage of lawn or garden
and noble old trees thrown in.
Those houses are liked all tho better if
they are not now. if the doors are sunken in
the wall, the windows deep seated and tho
hafl wide and cheery as was the fashion of
fifty yiEir; ago, with living rooms opening
on cither side of it.
There is an old, salt flavor about New
port of which, with ail its modern luxury,
it does not seem to be ashamed. Old sea
captains—many—have settled down there,
and. L ing a naval station, quite a contin
gent of naval officers and their wives are
constantly quartered there. There are resi
dents who can recall the traditions of a New
port that was commercially greater than
New York: more distinguished as a centre
than Washington; and the house is still
standing where colonial belles danced in
brocaded satin slippers at a ball given by
Roebambeuu.
Bellevue avenue was probably not in ex
istence then; now it is the principal street
and full of tho most widely contrasting ele
ments. Promenade and thoroughfare, it is
still a village street, with narrow sidewalks
and cobblestone roadways, only partly re
deemed from its original sin of rutty un
evenness. Eino residences set in park-like
grounds, hobnob with little tenements, tho
lower part of which are let in offices, the
untier part in lodgings. Village carts,
which ladies drive, the tiger sitting at tho
back, equipages in all tho glory of silver
mounted harness and magnificent ramrods
in livery pass and repass in perpetual re
view or stop before the little frame stores or
shops above, below and on either side of the
Casino, which are filled with the most ex
extravagant wares. There is no medium.
They represent tho highest, most exclusive
and wealthiest trade in Paris and New
York, and a fortune could be spent in
gowns or even in hair brushes in a single
morning.
The liest known, French, importing
niodistes all have branch houses here during
the season; and their selection of goods is
made from their richest importation. But
they are limited to certain classes of goods
and designs and possess all the characteris
tics of toilettes seen at Trouville or any gay
French watering place.
There are country morning dresses and
walking dresses and dinner dresses, of tho
richest and gayest and prettiest; but there
are few or no evening dresses of tlie char
acter required during the winter season in
New York. Full evening dross is indeed
neither looked for nor needed. Driving,
dinners and luncheons are tho entertain
ments most in vogue; and though the whole
ensemble of a certain portion of New York
has been transferred, for the time, to tho
narrow streets and wide sea-spaces of tho
rid, sea town, and with it, its habit of lux
urious living, vet tho life seeks more of tho
out-of-doors and oats less into tho night.
COTTON DRESSES
hre in the ascendant this year, hero as well
as abroad. But not tho cotton with gath
ered skirts and a simple hem or flounce at
tho bottom, such as our mothers or grand
mothers woro. No! These are draped and
mounted and finished just ns elaborately as
if they were silk and the cost is little less.
‘ Here is a simple dross,” said a saleswoman
to a customer, “and I am sure Mr. Blank
will make some concession to you; particu
larly if you tako the foulard.” “Certainly.”
promptly replied that lady, “you shall have
tic cotton dress for si's and tho foulard for
a.?i:>o."

satmos, the checkered and striped zephyrs,

original body part of tho material (the cot
ton crepe) was probably not more than §2,
yet the cost of tho dress, as shown when
completed, was $125.
The summer has been characterized every
where by an unusual degree of heat. Per
haps this is the reason of the rush for
foulards and soft silks. Whatever tho
cause, soft India silks, tussores and spotted
or figured foulards form the majority of
CASINO COSTUMES.
Tho Casino is the swell lounge in tho morn
ing. It is pretty, but monotonous. The
same people meet and do the same things;
that is, sit slid or saunter about, exchange
a word with those they know, watch—with
out apparent interest —a game of tenuis
and go home; stopping to buy a novel or
look at an exhibition of recently arrived
millinery on the way.
Following this convenient custom we
dropped in tlie other day upon a collection
of fresh and charming costumes. The pretty
foulards were in stripes, like the borders on
sevres ware, dividing the small figures and
flowerets into wider stripes. The favorite
colors are heliotrope and white, clear cur
rant red uipl white and a pretty fawn gray,
with rings in two shades of brown.
ltutlles seem to be coming again, and lace
is used, but the draperies fall gracefully and
no longer form the huge bunch at the back;
in fact this has almost entirely disappeared.
Graduated bauds of moire ribbon often
form a panel upon one side of these foulard
costumes, always in the positive color; while
the other side is looped high, the lace, or
soft silken fabric falling in curtain folds.
A charming dress was of tussore silk
trimmed with fine, open embroidery in sev
eral shades of brown laid upon cream.
Another pretty dress is a currant red China
silk, covered with a minute cord pattern in
white and made with white China crepe
vest. The hat of red straw was trimmed
with white crepe and great branch of red
currants. Brown and butt and rod and
white aro favorite combinations, blit it is
hard to convey to tho uninitiated what is
meant by combination of colors and tints,
which aro as different from the ordinary
brick red, mixed mustard yellow and chalk
white as can be imagined.
The highest object in combining color is
always to blend, to loso one in another, so
that it is difficult to tell where one ends and
another begins. Mrs. Donovan exhibited
some dresses that were works of art in this
respect. The edges were formed of numer
ous very narrow pinked and pointed ruffles
so scant as to be almost straight and over
lapping. The body of tho dress was com
posed of surah in a minute check and tus
sore, the check containing shades of
brown, gray and green, all of which, as well
as the tussore, appeared in tho pinked out
edges of the trimming.
Another dress exhibited by this modiste
was of petunia silk, covered with a trans
parent. trimming which had the effect of
embroidery, but was woven in petunia silk
and white. A third dress was of tho finest
white India wool, the trimming, a border
of lovely India cashmere embroidery, ar
ranged in stripes upon one side as a border
for the drapery, as a vest and cuffs for the
sleeves.
There is a total absence in Newport of
the cheap embroidered and bordered robes
and dresses, which are tho simple of the
“selling off" shops in town and country.
Simple dresses aro made up without trim
ming; never with cheap, machine-made
lace or embroidery. At
A VERY FINE DINNER
in Newport, some dresses were displayed
that may lie worth noting. Ouo of these
was of fawn grey surah, striped upon one
side with a darker shade in velvet. The
half train was laid in largo folds and hung
strait to the foot, where it terminated in
close, fine plaitings, three deep, over a very
full and fine luce balageuae. The front was
covered with silk tulle matching the silk,
from which hung small, pendent fuscluas,
formed of jets the color of tho tulle. The
bodice was draped with plain tulle, the
open front exhibiting a plastron of tho
pendants.
Another elegant dress was of black moire,
striped and draped with a silk grenadine,
into which fine real jets are woven so that
they cannot come off, because they are part
of the fabric. The bodice is entirely of the
transparent, jetted material. A handsome
ami striking dress was of copper-colored
peau ilc soie, with a panel and vest of white
moire, covered with festoons of carved
rosary 1 >eads of two sizes, but neither of
them large.
The richest dress, however, was of strip'd
brocade, tho stripes forming ribbons with
small, scattered rose-bud pattern on a pale
cutlaco green ground, with deep pixot edge.
This was made in French, conventional style,
v illi open bodice, draped with Mechlin lace
and Mechlin lace ruffles caught up with
bows upon tho inside of the closo elbow
sleeves.
At an opening of fresh costumes at the
Ocean House some drosses were shown by
Mrs. Armstrong, of Notv York, that were
very pretty, and not so extravagant in style
or price, as some. A narrow, ribbon,
striped silk grenadine in two shades of bus
cuit, was draped high over a buseait
colored moire skirt, with brown and buscuit
moire ribbons.
A lovely dress for a young girl was of
moonlight blue silk tulle, striped with nar
row satin ribbons ending in loops and a bor
der of the ribbons at the foot, over surnli
of the same shade. Scarfs of plain tuile
are crossed at the sides and formed a drape
ry at the back. Tho least expensive dress
was of striped bluo and white satine, made
upon plain blue satine with side panels,
divided bv folds of the strijie of Maderia
embroidery. This was considered very
cheap at $25.
A charming cotton dress was of (me,
white, sprigged embroidery, over pink ging
ham, which formed tho straight skirt and
scarf like drapery hung in a deep festoon at
tho side. Iho bodieo and sleeves were en
tirely of the embroidery over pink. A quite
now material is mudeof twisted threads, the
colors twisted together before being woven.
It makes a light fabric, with the texture
and appearance of China crepe, semi trans
parent and very elastic, yet serviceable. A
Blue dress of this kind was lovely, with a
little square figure embroidered in tho midst
of an invisible check and made up over bluo
silk. . , ,
An ideal dress for a young pirl was of
white goat’s hair, bordered with tho two
scries of narrow cream colored gros grain
ribbons A black and white foulard was
made over white silk and trimmed with a
Mark silk lace, baud woven, and showing
•ill applique of silk flowers 111 velvet, which
had a raised effect, but. looked as if woven
in tlie design Tho interior of tlie skirt was
faced with a deep, scant ruffle of white
embroidery.
The wraps were very small, and consisted
of lace and jet almost exclusively The
majority "To deeply pointed, back and
l miit the point accentuated by ornaments
or festoons of jet and long loops of moire
ribbon. They were m no ""iso different
from the small summer wrap, of tire last
tw,, or three seasons, which it seems to have
Leon found difficult to improve ujion. lire
prettiest wrappers 'tore of white cashmere,
embroidered in Turkish, Fcrsiau or ludiuu
embroidery patterns.

THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, JULY 30, ISS7.
Newport is in mourning this year, so
many deaths have taken place among those
who have been accustomed to lead in soci
ety. The difference is sensibly felt in tho
amount of gnyety and tho entertaining done
by the summer residents. At the Casino it
will be more lively when tho tennis tourna
ments begin. At present the line band
plays its programme to from five to a dozen
indifferent and apparently totally uninter
ested persons.
The Casino has always been a close cor
poration, from which the general public
are carefully excluded, so that it has ceased
to have any interest for those who are not
in tho fist of its subscribers and stockhold
ers. It is a pity that it is not more liber
ally managed, for it is a beautiful prome
nade and picture; and deserves wisjgr
appreciation.
The beach has been nothing but a drive
at Newport, for tlie summer residents do
not bathe. But tho town has lately erected
a pavilion and 800 bathing houses upon the
best part of the beach, which draws crowds
of excursionists. A fairly good and cheap
restaurant is attached and tickets for the
use of a bath house and including the use
of a bathing dress can be had for Boc.
Hooded chairs upon wheels, running
down upon lines of tramways to the water,
and depositing their passengers in the waves,
are all that is now needed to give an air of
foreign life and vivacity to the hitherto sol
emn and lonely beach at Newport. And these
will probably come in time, if winter
storms do not sweep away that which has
already been done.
Trousers, with a blouse waist and shirt,
in dark blue fiannol, trimmed with white
braid—the same tlmt has done duty for tho
past ten years—is still the bathing dress of
the majority. A'widorbrimmod, straw hat,
tying down gypsy fashion, under the chin,
with blue or red checked or striped ribbon,
completing the popular outfit.

CHICKS IN EGG CRATES.
Warehouses Converted Into Incuba
tprs by the Hot Weather.
From ihe Chicago Mail.
After it is all over and tho smoko of bat
tle has cleared away, as they say in post
election times, it becomes more and more
certain that last week was tlie li< >tte.->t on
record. The traditional “whopper" that
tho weather was hot enough to cook eggs in
the sun was very nearly realized on South
Water street. The air was so hot thatchick
ens were hatched in the eggs in orates put
iu the shadiest and coolest parts of the store
At F. Wood’s store, at 197 South Water
street, Billy Kreuzor was going to get some
eggs for tho “candler” to work on, and
when he came to tho consignment of five
cases of eggs from Hosj, 111., he
heard a peculiar squealing noise in
the lowest tier. “There’s mice in
there,” he said, but lo! when ho
took off the cover of the bottom
layer, fifteen young chickens just boiled out.
Two more had pipped out, but the air was
not warm enough to dry them out and they
died. Mr. Wood distributed them among
some of the clerks, keeping two himself
One of them is dead, but the rest are ns
chipper as if they had had a regulation
mamma lien to coddle them and
cluck over them. Ouo more thicken
made its debut from the same lot yesterday.
As they all came from the same let of three
dozen and had only been in the store a few
days Sir. Wood thinks they had been sot on
and got well on to maturity before they were
shipped. Then the warm air finished the
job. There are other cases on the same
street, but as this is the largest number Mr.
Wood thinks he is entitled to tlie prize.
At P. B. Weaver’s, two doors east, seven
littlo black chickens were discovered by Ed
Jones, the “candler,” last Friday, in some
eggs from Coulterville, 111. Five of them
were nice and dry, but the other two were
wet aud had just entered this world of care
and soitow. Tlie rest of the case were good
eggs, comparatively. At least there were
no “springs’ iu them. These chickens were
put in a box in the alley, and woro doing
well, with the exception of one little
stranger who succumbed to the heat Sunday
afternoon. Monday tho lot was sold for a
quarter to a man wbo was pleased with
them.
M. G. Hoffmann, in T. D. Randall’s but
ter and egg store at 217 South Water street,
found four little strangers in a crate of eggs
from Dubois when he was turning the case
over last Tuesday.
“I’ve been in tin; business fourteen yours,"
said Mr. Hoffmann, “and this is the first
I ever I card of such a thing. It lays over
anything I ever heard of. But there they
were, just as chipper as as you please. They
are all alive so far.”
This very morning D. J. Maxon, of O. I).
Emerson a: Cos., 215 South Water street,
took out three live chicks from a case of
eggs. “I gave them to tho old mail,” he
said, “and ho took them home. This is the
first I ever heard of livo chickens being
found in the eggs. Of course they’re often
found dead in tho shell, half matured, but
we’ve never had weather hot enough to hutch
them. You see, they got pretty warm, and
then, being stacked up in sucli big piles,
they retained tjio heat, which it seems was
enough to hatch them. But turning eggs to
chickens ain’t the worse of it. Fully one
lialf of the eggs received during the hot
spell are simply cooked. The white and tho
yolk have all run together, and they are
completely spoiled. I never saw the like
before. Now, I was looking at some egg;;
with the candle this morning, and in no
crate did I get more than fifteen dozen of
good eggs—just about half, you see. All
the rest were no good.”
A Queer Scene.
Paris Letter to the tMillion Telegraph.
A strange scene occurred this morning in
tho parish church of Clignaucourt, one of
tho shady suburbs of Paris, List
known by a song about it which figures in
tho music Dull repertory of the favorite
“comic lion” Paulus. Several little girls
were kneeling near tho altar, preparing to
make their first communion, which was
being administered by the parish priest. As
the celebrant enino up to one. of the chil
dren be suddenly stopped, and, regarding
her attentively Tor a few seconds, passed on
without giving her the sacrament. Tlie girl's
mother and aunt, two powerful fishwives of
Clignaneourt, seeing wiiat bud taken place,
instantly left their seats, and going up to
the cure, belabored him most unmercifully
with their umbrellas.
The priest, taken aback by the violence
and suddenness of the assault, fled for safety
to the sacristy or vestry, followed by tire
gorgeous beadle of the church, wbo tried to
keeii the excited umbrella-brandishing fe
males back. But Ids inler|>osition was
vain, for the women, pushing him back as
if he were mere carrion, dashed into the
vestry and renewod their singular eliustisi -
incut of tho cure. They were joined hy
other women, who. having nothing ulxmt
them which could lie converted into weap
ons, actually took tlio long wax candles off
the ultar and hit the priest with them. In
the meantime there was a stampede among
tho congregation. Tlio children were
screaming with fear, and u cry of “Fire!”
wax raised, which caused n general rush to
the door. Some of the children were hurt
in trying to get out, but the jxirson who suf
fered most bodily injury wax the unfortu
nate cure, who iiad to bo protected in his
vestry from the vengeance of the two furies
who were thirsting for his blood.
