These coat bodices are either quite long or abort, aa the wearer prefer*. The skirts are round and full, very similar in cut to those of last spring. A stylish costume seen last week was a .tweed mixed in color, but in effect s rather peculiar shade of steel blue, round skirt, short bodice, single small revers, strap seams, which almost ornamented the skirt, white chemisette, steading collar with turn down collars and four-in-hand ttSL The Real sketch is a new shade of golden brown doth, long ooat single bre a st e d, with collar and cuff* of black velvet, the revers of doth, the small black rimmed buttons. As season ad¬ vances, and it grows too cold for thin one of black velvet full, also collar, would make this costume more rich-looking and more dressy. The bat is of brown felt, with pon pon, and band of black. These long mats may be a sort of warning of the •pproac h of redingotes, and there is a whisper that embroidered polonaises will be next i in order. Chemisettes of s .. fall soft materials, such as silk, surah, erepon, and mousseline de soie, are in make Ufa favor; the latter is also used to \ ken* dog-collars, arranged in folds — in place by bars of . jet pearl elegant. •taw.

Indications point to capes of all kinds as the popular wrap, velvet, jet and laoe for dressy occasions, cloth trimmed with fnr, and the Ebglish military cape, now called by various names, Scotch, tourist and golf. The second sketch is of dark blue cloth, with lining of cape and hood of plaid silk in dark blue black and tan, crossed with red. Many are made of reversible cloth, having one side in dark colors, and the other in gay plaids, some of rough cloths, others tweeds in exceptionally fine quality, reversible, and aro procurable in many different colors, one of the most successful having one side in oek brown, and the other in a smart red and tyue check. Very pretty also are the combinations of fawn black and white, with a cheok in pale tan color crossed in red, aad cigar brown, with a tan oheek crossed with pale blue. Plaids of all descriptions, in fact, are need for one side of these reversible oloths. These new wraps are oomfort ably long, and smartly out with stylish hood, and most ingeniously arranged with straps from the shoulder, which QfCNNi oT<ir ths ch«nrt ^Al6u pus around the waist, so that the eape osn be thrown open to any width without folding from the shoulders.

The world pays more attention to what a man does than to what he says. It would he hard to convince a spider that there is any honey in a rosebud.

Believe what a coward says, and he oan prove to your satisfaction that he is the bravesbman in the world. The reason it makes a liar mad to call him one is because he doesn’t jraut to look at himself. —Ram’s Horn. The Bamboo. . Although no production of China is of so much importance to us as tea, there are others of the equal or perhaps superior value to Chinese them¬ selves. Among these may be classed the bamboo. The bamboo is a genus of grass, of which most of the species attain a great size, many of them being twenty or thirty feet in height; some, says a good authority, over seventy feet. The species are namerons, and are found in all tropical and subtropical countries, both in the eastern and western hemispheres. The stems of the bamboo are jointed, very hard, but light and elastic, hollow, contain¬ ing only a light spongy pith, exoept at the joints, where they are divided by strong partitions. Although the bamboo is of great servioe to the inhabitants of every country in whiob it grows, it seems doubtful whether any people put it to as many different uses as the Chinese. In their hands the bamboo may al¬ most be considered a universal ma¬ terial, for they perform with it opera¬ tions the most various and dissimilar that oan well be imagined. it They manufacture with stools, tables, bedsteads and all other srtioles of furniture. It supplies scaffolding for building, masts and yards for shipping, carts and wheel¬ barrows for husbandry, wheels laths and tubes for irrigation. Split into all and ropes, oords and twine for purposes, to the wick from of the candle. rigging Woven, of a ship it a beoomes a sail-cloth or a sacking; macerated into a palp, it is made into paper, and mixed up with lime it is used to oalk ships. By fastening to¬ gether four of these reeds, swimming jackets are oonstrnoted capable of supporting one or more persons, and a machine is thus made which answers to our more elaborate life preservers. When young it affords a nutritions article of diet; when growing it is a fence for the gardens and fields, a pro¬ tection for cottages aud an ornament for palaces. It is the weapon of justice and the instrument of op¬ pression, supporting equally and the authority of the mandarin the arroganoe of the petty official. So endless are its uses that it almost aeems that without its help the ma¬ chinery of government would stand still, and the Chinese want many of those accessories to opmfort whioh separate the civilized man from the savage. —Atlanta Constitution.

NEWSY ITEMS TICKED VP AT THE NATIONAL CAPITOL. Sayings and Doings of pie Official Heads of the Government. ; j xbe presidential party, including the president and family, Mrs. Perrin, Miss Rose Cleveland and the three de¬ tectives who have been at Buzzard’s Bay, Mass., all summer, left that place for New York Tuesday by special train, with a director’s car attached for their personal use. The postmaster general Saturday wired the Jackson, Miss., postmaster that the “order against the Co-opera¬ tive Loan and Divestment Company, of Mississippi covers only regis¬ tered matter and money orders. You will deliver all ordinary matter addressed to the company.” While the Indian officials at one time showed a desire to appoint civil iana as Indian agents in place of army officers, where army officers have been relieved, it has now been determined to fill such vacancies with army offi¬ cers. The war department has been asked to designate army officers to fill vacancies in each case. An additional exchange of through registered mail pouches has been and or¬ dered between Jacksonville, Fla., New York city. The pouches will leave New York at 9 o’clock p. m. via the New York and Washington railway postoffice, and Jacksonville at 3:20 o’clock p. m. via the Charleston and Jacksonville railway postoffice. Secretary Herbert has modified the orders which were issued to Com¬ mander Davis, of the Montgomery, to leave Norfolk November 6th and visit Mobile, Ala., not later than November 15th, on account of an exposition which is to be held in Montgomery November 19th. The departure of the Montgomery will be postponed a week. . ■ ’ Secretary Carlisle has asked Attor¬ ney General Olney for an opinion on the constitutional question involved in carrying out the dispensary law in South Carolina, in cases where the disputes occur between the United States and the state officers of South Carolina, on the occasion of liquor being held in United States bonded warehouse, being seized for violation of state police ordinances. Without issuing a direct order Sec¬ retary Smith has allowed it to be un¬ derstood that all employes of the inte¬ rior department may go home to vote at the coming elections. There are a number of employes in the interior de¬ partment who intend fo avail them¬ selves of this privilege. The superin¬ tendent of the railway mail service has issued an order allowing all postal clerks to go and vote who can get away without serious detriment to the service. At the present ratio existing be¬ tween the treasury receipts and ex¬ penditures, the indications point to a deficit for the month of October of seven millions in ordinary expenses and of five millions in interest or a total of $12,000,000 for the month over and above receipted expenditures This will firing receipts the for excess the current of fiscal over to year about $18,000,000. For the same period of last year the excess was $29,000,000. On motion by Calderon Carlisle, counsel for Madalene Pollard in the case of Pollard vs. W. C. P. Breckin¬ ridge, of Kentucky, the eonrt of ap¬ peals of the District of Columbia or¬ dered the appeal which had been ask¬ ed for in this case stricken from the docket of the court on the ground that it had not been entered within the statutory time. This ends the litiga¬ tion as far as the courts of the District of Columbia are concerned and leaves the plaintiff free to collect her judg¬ ment of $16,000 and coats from the colonel when and how she ean. The plans at the government build ing at the Atlanta exposition, are now only waiting approval of the postmaster general and secretary of the interior. No material change from the The prepared plana hi contemplated. plans were drawn after foil consultation by the architect with members of the gov¬ ernment board, who gave him details of the ee each department of tne board with the division of space.

It 'rrill fcs Xou*ojiii»ered that, not long since, an inquiry ms made as to the right of the commissioners of Floyd county, Ga., to issue a certain amount o£ county bonds, 4 per ceflt interest, in denominations of $5, §10 a ad $20, with a view of using the same as local money. It was asked whether such action would conflict in any way with United States bankinfflaws. The matter “was referred to Solicitor Beeve. and he advised the secretary that no statute of the United States prohibits the issue of county bonds in any denomination, and that a county has the right to issue bonds when not in contravention to the constitution of the state. As to the state bank tax act of 1875, Mr. Beeve held that the word “county” is hot enumerated among the taxable bodies, and that therefore county bonds are not sul ject to the ten per cent tax. According to infor¬ mation received at Washington, the people of Floyd county have become widly enthusiastic over this prepara-® opinion, and are making elaborate tions to have the bond issue au¬ thorized at the coming election, it be¬ ing one of the principal issues of the campaign. Mass meetings have been held and a committee appointed to arrange for a big barbecue on election day. The people may be doomed to very great disappointment in this matter, however, inasmuch as it is, stated on the best authority that Sec¬ retary Carlisle does not agree with the opinion of Solicitor Beeve, and will not take any action in the matter un¬ til he has heard from Attorney-Gen¬ referred eral Olney, to whom he has Solicitor Beeve’s for review. CHINA WANTS PEACE, But.the Victorious Japs Refuse all ® Overtures. The Central News (London) for claims the to have the highest authority statement that overtures looking to a declaration of peace between China and Japan were made a few days ago but that Japan rejected the proposals, considering them inadequate. According to the Central News, however, there is every reason to be¬ lieve that the proposals were eminently satisfactory to China, and that her representatives signified a willingness of their governments to acquiesce in them. THE JAPANESE PARLIAMENT MEETS. The Japanese parliament, which was convoked tor a seven days’ session, to consider war measures, met at Hiro¬ shima Monday. Count Kusumoto wai elected president and M. Shimada vice president. THE PALACE DIVIDED. The imperial palace at Pekin is said to be divided by two factions, con¬ tending, the one for peace, the other for war. The war party consists of the Emperor, the Imperial Tutor Ung Tungho, and Olobopu, director of the board of war. On the side of peace are tibe Empress Dowager, Prince Kung and Li Hung Chang. NEW YORK COPS INDICTED. The Grand Jury Return True Bills for Bribery. The New York grand jury found in¬ dictments for bribery against ex-Police Captain Michael Doherty, his formeT wardmsn, John Hock and Bernard Meehan, and ex-Sergeants of Police George 0. Lieberg, Hugh Clark, Felix McKennan, James W. Jordan and Charles J. Parkerson, all of whom were dismissed from the force several weeks ago. It can be stated with oertainty that the case# of ex-Police Captains Grose, Stephenson and Devery have not yet been taken np, bat that they will be considered without farther delay. The case of Captain Schmittberger is as yet undecided. It is a question whether or not the grand jury will consider it before action is taken by the police commissioners. The fol¬ lowing prisoners hare been released on b iil: Ex-Wardman Bernard Meehan, ti-Wardman John. Hock, ex-Sergeant Hugh Clark, ex-Sergeant Felix Mc¬ Kenna, ex-Sergeant Charles ParkersoD and ex-Sergeant J. W. Jordan. THE DECISION REVERSED, . And O’Brien Can Be Tried for Em¬ bezzlement. A Chattanooga dispatch says: Last spring the county circuit eonrt quashed the indictment against M. J. O’Brien, ex-supreme eonrt chancellor of the Catholic Knighte of America, for the embezzlement of $75,000 from that order. The decision of the eonrt was baaed on the Tenneaaee statute which denies legal redress to corpora¬ tions not having an abstract of charter granted fa the state. Tuesday the Tenneaaee supreme court, sitting at Knoxville, reversed this daemon and made O’Brien liable to criminal p r ose cuti on pending the examination of authorities cited by Mr. O’Brien’s counsel.
