NEW FAD. Mrs Niclulas Longworth has at new fad which is sure to be taken up by the women of Washington s smart set.

ConspicoUß among the new adornments of the presidents bril ,l '>r are long pendant I earrings of Roman filigree | with pearls diamonds insets. 1 These rings to almost barbaric in their spleuubr. They reach down to the ve-y shoulders, and in the fringe like gold at the end ar? small but perfect diamonds which twinkle and shine as their vivaci ous owner smites and nods in her discourse. Great wide bands of Roman, set in sapphires, are now the favorite bracelets which Mrs. Longworth wears, and it is interesting to know that they were the wedding gift of the present chief executive to his young bride. The betrotha ring, a half circle of diamond?, likewise now adorns Mrs. Longwor'h’s slender finger, sometimes to the seclusion of her own handsome gift from the Ohio representative. AN EXPLANATION. The Liberal was misinformed last week relative to the difference in the regular meeting of the council. Instead of the motion to raise the chief of police’s salary being introduced by Councilman L. Kimbrel, it was made by Col. R. ' W. Grow. The measure was to raise the salaries of both the marshal ami his deputy. There were only nine cases in the month of January; and the im pounding fees will hardly amount ' to as much again as they have for 1 the past month. 1 Those councilaien favoring the ' measure wanted to insure Chief ' of Poiice J. S. Thompson and ■ Deputy Marshal H. R. Sheffield a ' better salary than thirty dollars 1 a month, all that they can be sure of as the ordinance now stands.
