Combinations Attractive Effects in Mantles, Visltes and Dolmans. New York, Oct. 26. Fashion would not lie fashion, if it did not keep constantly ■chaugijyj; and though it seems to move in a circle, yet the revolving panorama always manages to throw up something different end new in the way of combinations. Manufactured trimmings have been ignor ed for the past fivo years. Ornameutation has been executed with pieces of constrast ing material and “effects” obtained by put ting two or more fabrics, colors and shades of color together. Evidently trimming manufacturers came to a determination to make an effort and put a stop to this state ul things. Passementeries have been re vived ainl appear in an infinite variety of ingenious and effective designs, that are formed like an embroidery of wheel pat terns, fan shapes, or network of braids in terlocked and fastened with minute but tons; or lattice work with border represent ing a frame. Some styles are finished with heavy fringes, witli beads or tinselled threads in termixed ; others show knotted cords in open squares, with small bails, like twine, hanging by a twist of the same in irregular pendants. Military cords and aiguilettes tfypear, but they are less elegant than the finer orna ments, which show lace like stitches and are, in fact, a reproduction in black silk of the cotton cord and tape, put together with lace or embroidery stitches, as cuffs, collars and collarettes a few years ago, and which made for the time being anew and much lauded industry. It is a fact, indeed, that the deft hands •which were thrown out of employment by the sudden collapse of these “handmade” lingerie, are now engaged in the effect to re habilitate the passmenterie form of dress trimmings; so that with hundreds, it is not a question of fashion, but of bread and but ter. The improvement in them shows per haps experience gained in finer work. The forms are no longer enlarged buttons, “plaques,” palm leaves and coarse trepil patterns, but spear heads, epaulettes, elongated bretalles and fisher-like trim mings. The military braid, cord and tags are arranged in sets of festoons for the skirt, as well as the bodice; the group of those cable curds beginning at the throat, on the right ot the bodice, and terminating at the left on the top of the shoulder over the arm. The elaborate pieces for front of nkirts or panels are very expensive when they are of all silk and in the new lace and embroidery patterns; for as much work is expended upon them as upon hand braid ing and embroidery; the difference being, that the designs are less original and exclu sive—more conventional; and that materials, such as cords, braids, wire (for wheels) small buttons and the like, are brought into play to aid stitches. 1.0! THE POOR BEAD. With the revival of these dull, black gimps and passe men trios, beads and beaded trimmings retire into the background. The reign of glitter has perhaps beep* long enough. Beads have certainly lasted longer than ever before, except, among the abor igines. But then, great skill has been brought to bear upon their manipulation and arrangement. Nor are they yet quite displaced. Great efforts are naturally made to get rid of the costly beaded trimmings still on hand, and for showy purposes there is nothing that can take their place. The large designs, however, and large, beaded effects have quite disappeared. Black jet and white jet are used less in patterns. Then to cover a surface of lace, satin or velvit with a sort of gold or silver dust, the elements of which can only be detected upon close examination. This also is true of the use of colored beads and tinselled effects upon costly ma terials. They are showered in minute pat terns or grouped in small triangular or dia mond pointed figures, and sometimes cover a skirt as small, artificial flowerets have covered some skfrts of white or black tulle lor two seasons past. In Paris, these pretty effects in small jets upon tulle, are arranged in three colors upon black, ruby, green and brown or amber and used for bonnets, panels, corsage trim mings and for the transparent fan, which is just now the indispensable accompaniment of a tulle bonnet. These embroideries are executed by hand. They are not always done in beads. They are softer and pre ferred by many, in silk or shaded chenille particularly by those who are tired of Leads. But really, the great merit of the fashions to-day is, that you can choose for yourself and make fashion as well as another, if you can succeed in working out an attractive idea. The worst feature of the passemen terie trimmings is, that being raised from tiie surface and usually composed of lighter materials than the body upon which they are placed, they soon grow shabby and prove a poor investment of the additional cost of the dress or manite upon which they are placed. Still, the cost does uot differ much, whether trimmings are made or only put on; the whole cost amounts to much the same. Certainly there is little difference in the aggregate amount of dressmaker and dry goods bills. THE AUTUMN DISPLAYS made by the great Sixth avenue houses, give the impression that we are a nation of twenty-millionaires. The costumes on exhi bition on the occasion of the “opening”s— limited now to this quarter —or to acelebra tion of enlargement of premises, were marked at prices ranging from $l5O to $575 and no imported dress could be found under the first price. Simple gowns of wool, with velvet pan els and mounting, but silk lining, were $lB5. The most charming dregs of the whole season’s showing, was an evening gown in cream satin ducheese by Rouzoand; the ornamentation, most refined and beauti fully executed embroidery upon the rich fabric in various shades of silk, with gold and silver thread introduced. The most showy was a combination of bright yellow perm dr soie, with yellow brocaded flowers witli green stems, tied in natural bouquets upon a white ground. It was a dress that would need no telephone to speak l'-r it, for it would herald itself through out the world. Tills was tho dress for "hicli $575 was asked; but one could not imagine that that sum could induce any body to wear it. It is a marvsl, however, who buys all the costly things that are shown: and more of a marvel when one considers tho tricks and shifts that aro resorted to, to attract cus tom; ana the frantic eagerness of the crowds of women shoppers to obtain a bar gain. In an other’,rise nearly empty store, recently, a douse mass of women surounded a counter which contained pieces of figured, cotton-backed velvet or velveteen, in common colors, reduced to 49c. per yard. Ordinarily it would have been unsaleable at any price; but announced as a bargain, it drew eager, anxious throngs, who stood in massed rows and bought the “six yards” which was the shrewd limit made to < veryono’s purdiase —without looking, or be ing ablo to touch tho goods; except as it was l anded over the shoulders of those standing nearer tho point of attraction. Zola has Tainted nothing worse than this as a feature of modern shopping. THE PARISIAN STYLES ns seen in Paris, are very quiet this season. Unfortunately we get our ideas from dresses prepared in Paris for our stage; construe*ert lor the ex press purpose of “out Heroding Herod.” The effect of wardrobe is discount- j fd in the cose of some actressas and is an important, pnrhsns the most important pm t of tboir stock in trade. Girls rave over it, women in lioarding houses talk about it and crowd the matinee perform ances to seo it,. It is well-known by mau ag< is that tho “social element” in theatre partios and these who usually compose them, care little for a play, know nothing about acting, do not wont to be interested or even amused, for it is not “the thing” to laugh or be interested in anything but one’s self and clothes; and clothes, therefore and a figure to exnibit them, are indispensable elements of a society success on the stage or off it. Asa lady said tiie other day, with perfect gravity and totally unconscious irony: “Dress' is everything.” Walking up Broadway tho other day with a lady who had just returned from a five years' stay abroad, site remarked with astonishment upon the general size of the touniHre , the exaggerated shelf it formed at the back of tho skirt, and the pronounced exhibition of styles and colors. High-colored autumn gowns of wool displayed huge sleeves, tied in above and below the elbow with velvet; and designs were paraded on tiie street only suited to the dressing room or tho boudoir. This is the reflection of the footlights, from a standpoint, it is true, which does not represent either tho best of the stage or the best of society; but it is the element which is popularly supposed to stand for both, which is the most talked about, and largely fills the society columns of the newspapers. In tho meantime, the majority of women still continue to get one new gown and make over their old ones. I Uo question is WHAT SHALL THAT NEW ONE BE? Ohi green, of course, serpent green or moss green: it is all the same, or at least few know the difference. Make it up with plush ? No. Plush does uot look or wear as well as velvet, while the loose, fuzzy pile destroys the outlines of the figure. Make it up with velvet and add the new, black, open sqiear heads in passementerie to the panelled sides, to tho vest or ravers of the bodice and to the wrap, if your dress is completed by one to match. But this is not necessary with a green costume. Brown is the only color which does not seem to go well with other colors, which requires the costume to be complete in itself; yet artists say brown is “friendly.” It is true that green and brown and brown and blue have been suc cessfully blended in materials and designs, but it is only when they are blended in small quantities, not when they are con trasted in large ones, that they are suc cessful. THE FASHIONABLE USE OF FUR. But about that dress. If you live in a cold climate you will not care for light or fanciful trimmings; you will want fur. There is nothing so handsome or becoming, in cold weather, as a finish of fur to a cloth or velvet dress; and if the fur is good and rightly used, it conveys a certain air of dis tinction to very simple costumes; This year fur is employed as trimming in novel ways. Instead of a border, it is used as an edge, tiie fabric which composes the garment or the supplementary trimming of rich braid, over-lapping the fur. It is also inserted at the seams, to outline panels, the top of the arm and the upper and lower line of the standing collar. There is not the comfort in these lines of fur, that there is in the warm border; and they are more trouble, but the effect is novel and the finish is there without too much warmth when the supple mentary body fur fishu or collarette is re moved. Redfern, who us to the soft, curled lamb’s wool, several years ago, has brought out another new fur this year, or the revival of an old one. It is called “cara cal” and is astrakhan in large, smooth waves, which have the effect of moire in fur. It is not youthful in appearance, but is exceedingly well adapted to mourning and to the wear of ladies beyond middle age, who have begun to restrict their choice of material for dress, to black and sober gray. PRETTY GIRLS IN GRAY AND WHITE. Gray can no longer, however, bo consid ered exclusively a middle-aged color. For some time past, aud even now, gray iji chosen by young women, both in wool and silk, as the color for street aud in-door dresses. A gray cloth suit made recently was panelled with curled lamb’s wool, soft as down. The basque, cut with small revers at the throat and with cutaway points, displayed at both openings a part of the simulated vest of white lamb’s wool, of which also the fez cap and muff were composed. This was an ex cessively dainty and charming little cos tume, but it is only advisable under excep tional circumstances, and for those who can afford a variety of gowns for street wear. Asa rule, gray is too cold a color for win ter, and if worn frequently needs to be com bined with a warmer color, ruby or amber or both united in silk or beaded trimmings. Steel trimmings are revived for use on gray cloth and silk, but they are deadly, unless mixed with jets in black, or placed upon a darker or a warm background. It is one of the results of tha belated way in which wo get our ideas, that steel is brought to us for ornamentation, at a period when cold sharpens it into a weapon, instead of a beautifler, and moisture turns it to rust after a few weeks of exposure. TULLE FOR EVENING WEAR. Tulle has been gradually obtaining an as cendancy, which it seems now to have quite reached, as an element in elegant toilets for evening wear. The more elegant, the more tulle; and nothing can be more dainty or more desirable, especially for young women entering society, than tulle upon tulle, over soft, all silk or satin, wide, soft, satin ribbons for garniture and a hand bou quet of white roses. The style of the ma jority of these dresses is exactly that of thirty-five years ago. A plain silk or satin skirt —demi-trained—overskirts of tulle cov ering it entirely. Round, low bodice of silk, draped with tulle, ala Vierge or in surplice style and small, round epaulette sleeves of tulle only, caught up in the cantre. A debutante who goes much into society, should start with at least three such dresses. One in white, one in carnation pink, one in pale yellow or a peach tint. White flowers are used with each of these during the first season, roses being always distinguished by a certain cachet in winter, because they are costliest; but lilies of the valley, though they fade quicker are more youthful in ap pearance, and peas—if they can bo obtained —are pretty with a peach tint in tulle and silk', or nun’s veiling. PINKED AND VANDYKED EDGES appear again upon underwear, and also upon some evening skirts made of soft silk in delicate colors. The flower effect pro duced is very pretty and particularly well adapted to silken underskirts; but it looks rather affected when applied to in the stylo, with low short, “baby” waist; short high puff for sleeves ami straight skirt, which hangs linip Mid lank about the limbs. Buch a dress was worn in gray, soft silk recently; the hair drawn buck and twisted into the new "Greek” or “Goddess” knot, and a single Daphne, white, in its own wafy, green leaves, fastened in tho breast and its pinked edges. With the round bodies, bretelles are re turning and possibly the dreadful, “Bertha hut it is hoped the line will be drawn ut that. Tho last seen of it, by the writer, was upon a fat and antiquated baroness in a London drawing room; and she was a warning to those who recklessly, and in considerately dive into a forgotten past for ideas. Ladies who have time and money, who have been abroad, who have studied the art of the old world picture galleries aud the studios, are copying designs from Henry 111. and the rennaissanca period for dinner and reception drosses. Of two indoor drowns made re cenfclv, one was in black, the other in two shades of green and both were wool, com bined with velvet and moire in tho one in stance and velvet and brocade in tho other. The bodice in the back was a inoy en-age and to the lower edgo of this, the skirt which opened in front, over a velvet and moire striped petticoat was attached. The sleeves were of wool, with small, high puffs THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1887. of velvet and there was a small rovers and collar cf velvet, above which was a little “canoness" vest and ruffle of white mull and block lace. Tho striped petticoat only discovered itself in front, tiie wool-corded and very soft, formed the skirt and was bordered with velvet and ornamented at tho side with knotted silk cords, from which was suspended an alms bag of velvet. The gown in two greens v.as a rloiiilelte and had the appearance of u double dross. It was open in front to the throat, at tho back only to tiie waist. Into the back of the skirt wus inserted a box-plaited panel of the striped velvet and brocade, which pro duced in two shades of green—by means of cut and uncut, wavings—very striking effects. A soft, folded vest, of crepe de chine was inserted in tiie front of the dress and carried to the waist, where it was con fined by u sash. Below this, the striped velvet formed tiie front, and it was visible again in gores upon tiie sides and in cuffs, below the full sleeves of plain wool. THE CLOAK OF THE SEASON, like tiie bonnet of the season, is varied and seems to be adapted to all kinds and con ditions of women. It is long, with sleeves and ulso without. The popular style is with sleeves and fitted to the back as far as tiie waist; below tnis, laid in plaits to form the fullness or in accordion folds. A newer style has double fronts, the second form ing the sleeves and hanging straight from the shoulder to the edge of the skirt. This is very handsomely made up in the fine “shadow” or velvet cloths and trimmed with Labrador caracal or black lynx fur. The design is also adapted to the rich braid ing patterns which cover the shoulders, ex tend entirely down tho front and to the waist behind. Mahogany red or dark myrtle green with biavk ornamentation, are stylish combinations; but at! all black or dark gray reversible silk, which is new this season—an Antwerp armure— is jier haps the most elegant of all the cloaking materials, particularly for an elderly lady. This may be lined with plush, with quilted satin or with chinchilla and trimmed with fur or rich passementeries. Fur capes and capes generally have gono into oblivion. Their place has been taken by small mantles, vitites and dolmans, which afford more protection for the arms and are susceptible of prettier, more dressy effects. The small mantle has always the advantage of not concealing a handsome dress; and is therefore better adapted for visiting and social purposes than the en veloping wrap. In the South and South west, the small wrap, which forms part of the costume, is all that is needed in winter, m addition to an ulster or light storm cloak; and the present forms, which fit in closely at tho back, are finished with a fullness like a basque and have sleeves which cover the arms yet do not confine them, are most, con venient as well as elegant, when made in velvet or in the material of the dress, with trimming to match. Jenny J i nk. WHITE SLAVES IN HAWAII. A Remarkable Story of Enforced Ser vitude on Sugar Plantations. From the Lon Angeles Times. H. Benedict, a waiter in a Main street restaurant, only reached this city a short time ago. Ho has just escaped from a life of slavery that is, according to his story, a hundred times more severe in every respect than were the old slavery days before the war, Learning of this fact, a reporter looked him up and drew the following state ment, which was told in a straightforward manner that cannot be dishalieved: “Almost six years ago,” Mr. Benedict be gan, “I was a waiter in a San Francisco restaurant, when I was taken sick, and the doctor who attended mo told me that I would have to get away from San Fran cisco unless I wanted to die of consumption. The first day that I was able to be out I walked down to the water front and was watching the ships discharge, when a stranger approached and asked me to take a walk. After having a little conversation with me he learned that I wished to leave the city, and he told me that he was friend ly with a number of people in Honolulu, and that he was confident that I could get work as soon as I reached the islands. He told m<. that ho represented a certain firm, and was confi dent that I could get free passage to the islands if I would go. I met him the next day, and he informed me that ho had se cured thirteen others who would go, and he introduced me to several of them. They all thought it a good chance t.< get out of California for a while, and I consented to go. We sailed on a schooner under a man named Myers, and were treated like regu lar passengers for a few days, or until we all got over our uneasiness, when Capt. Myers came around one day with a big blank book in his hands. Ho asked us our true names, place of birth, age, and what occupation we had followed. “Wo thought it very strange proceedings, but said nothing, although we were greatly troubled. When we reached the islands we did not go into port, but stopped outside. A steam launch was soon alongside, and a man who represented himself to lie a doctor came aboard. He and tho Captain were closeted for quite a while, when the doctor came aft and gave each one of us a medical examination. The Captain and doctor then left the ship, and a few hours after weighed anchor, and for two days wo were sailing in and out among islands. Finally we were landed at a large sugar plantation and given to understand that we were to work in the field. We learned the next day that the plan tation was owned by two men who were considered the hardest task masters on the islands. We were told that we had been employed through the captain, and that we were to get tbO a month each. AVe hesi tated about going to work at first, but the foreman talked very nice to us, and after we had worked a month we went to the foreman's office to draw our pay. Here we were horrified to learn that we had been sold to the sugar planters as slaves for so much a head • that it would take us just three years to buy our freedom, if wo worked every day. We were ci-edited with 25c. a day when we worked, and when we were too sick to work they charged us 75c. a day for board. They paid so much for us, and wo had to work our freedom out at the rate of 25c. a day. and under the laws of the island we agreed to this contract the first day we worked—as going to work with our own free will sig nifies that we were willing to work for the planters for our passage to the islands. Well, we made a hard kick against such treatment, but there was no help for it, as the plantation was guarded by a company of native soldiers who were only too willing to shoot a white slave who Attempted to escape. “When wo refused to work wo were placed in tho stocks and whipped until tho blood streamed off our hacks. When a man wanted to lay off because of sickness a plantation doctor was called in, and if tho doctor suiii he was not sick the fellow was either whipped or killed. I have known them to take a man out and shoot him lie cause he could not work. A man was taken violently sick one day, but tho doctor said he was all right, wad the py W’seor made him go to tho field. He sthoggied along until about noon, when he dropped down dead. AVe were worked ten hours a day, and no set of men were ever worked harder in tho world. The work on a sugar plantation is never ended, and there are but few men who can hold it up many years. Out of the fourteen who went there with me. there are but few who lived through their slavery days. After I had been there three years I thought my time was up, but I hod a sur prise in store for mo in the shape of a bill the company had against tne tor eating su gar cane and playing sick. The overseer had charged me with every mouthful of su gar cane I over ate, and it took me just two years more to work it out at the rate of two bits a day. I never ate any more sugar cane, and, as good luck would have it, I was not sick. It took me jiwt live years and a few weeks to work out, and if I had to tell you what I suffered during that time vou would wonder that lam alive to-day. Reoplo might, live in Honolulu a lifetime and never know anything about the slave system that is being carried on in the Sand wich islands.” CHEAP ADVERTISING. ONE CENT A WORD.

Y., who is now recognised us one of tlic finest Pianists and most success ful Teachers that America has produced: “Mia. Cary made flying visits to New York, receiving valuable instruction from iS. B. Mills, and drawing inspiration from those two great tone masters, Thollierg and Qottsclmlk. The production of a pure Mnyhiij tone had always been a study with her, and, observing that these two great pianists used only (he Chiekerinif t'iclnos, she made a thorough investigation, which resulted in her purchasing the first Chick ering Grand that wont into Western Now York. Since that time Mrs. Cary has lava a firm and steadfast friend of that Piano Forte, and it i* a matter of conscience with her to advise the use of these instruments with her class, over TO of whom possess Chickering Grands.” A Word to thk Wise.- A Piano which is used and indorsed by such nmgnitlccnt artists as Thallierg, Gottschalk, Rivi King, Teresa Carcno, Win.
