Fashion Notes.
New York correspondence:
UCII use Is being
made of sailor col
ors, which In n
nearly endless va
riety seem nlmoit
to bo the chief
characteristic 'of
n e v a n in in o r
dresses. Tho col
lars are n trifle
larger than those of
last year, and far
in ore elaborate.
Nothing U now too
Hiii! or too hand
some, for this acces
sory. Those made
of laces nnd em
broidery are by far
the prettier. Lace
and grass linen In
linen color nre nu
merous, nnd the all
white collar, of
course. Is much
used. Klne tucked
lnwu, mull, organdy
and chiffon finished with handsome up
pllquc lace nnd Insertion nre used here,
too, nnd batiste and nainsook embroid
ered collars compote In loveliness with
those stenciled out in both mntcrlals.
Bolero nnd eton Jackets hnrdly nre con
sidered complete unless they show n col
lar on the sailor order. Much colored
silk beautifully iipplliiued with silk and
gowns. Crcnm and black Incc Insertion
arc another feature of stylish trimming.
White organdy gowns nre finished with
bins folds of Howcred organdy edged top
and bottom with rulllcs of very narrow
White Valenciennes. The bands are put
on In odd slinpes that give a striking look
to most of the gowns. Flowered organ
dies and mulls nre trimmed with cluny
and torchon both In bands nnd medal
lions. White velvet baby ribbon edges
tunny white gowns nnd looks very dain
ty. Net nnd lnee dresses usually nre
trimmed In this manner. Lnce nnd em
broidered llounces are employed exten
sively, nnd silk passementeries nre being
used on wash materials with good effect.
Tucking, plentlng, smocking and shirring
do not lose fnvor nnd nre generally em
ployed on new models. There Is n ten
dency to hnve bodices blouse very freely
in front' nnd ninny handsome ones fasten
nt the back. This allows the maker to
elaborate the front more than ever,
though ndvnntage Is not always taken of
this opportunity. Consider the cream
Incc bodlco In the middle of the next pic
ture, whose trimmings were apple green
velvet and cut steel buttons. Of course,
much freer trimming cnitld hnve been put
here. Muny elbow sleeves are seen, with
finish of hnndsomc lace or embroidered
rutlles. Bishop sleeves bag more nt the
wrists, nnd underslecves nre very much
lnrger than they were early In the sen
son. Of linen, canvas, duck nnd pique gowns
there are tunny very elaborate two-piece
models. Cotton cheviot reckons In here,
too, nnd Is by far the hnndsomest of nil,
standing well mnny kinds of elaborations.
A pretty dross of it is shown nt the left
In the concluding sketch. It was wedge
wood blue, with piping of white duck anil
folds of white pique ns trimming. Mnny
of these suits nre rather plain, the skirts
finished with tucking, strapping or
llounces. coats are made with basques or
belted" lu nt the wnlst line, nnd finished
with stitching, strapping or braid, or with
rovers and collar of some white wnsh mn-

heavy gabions and passementeries edge
them. Collars of linen, pique, duck nnd
denim nre worn, ns u rule, with suits of
the mime material. Black silk nnd col
ored silk conts nud costume, both in
transparent nud heavy materials, nre
- trimmed with elnboruto collars. These
nre scalloped, pointed or cut In fanciful
fashion, some hanging full over the
shoulders, others drawn tight to the bust,
where they are finished with u kuot of
' ribbon or a velvet rosette. A plain vol-

collars usually are more satisfactory. The
next illustration shows two, n white silk
collar embroidered with silver braid, nud
a pretty affair of stenciled batiste em

material in the first case, white muslin In
the second. It hardly may be said that
these sailor collars are ns plentiful ns

degree that may mnke fashionables tire

in front, others nre in blazer fashion.
Pongee suits made on this order nre
fashionable nnd very cool. They nre
stitched iu self color or red, green, blnck

jackets.

"Ferooioun Kngliuli Sparrows.
A great mnny young men go to Itlver
tou at this season to shoot live pigeons
ns they Uy from traps, and some of the
young men agreed recently that for a,
target sparrows would mnke an agree
able substitute. So they caught no less
thnn 100 spurrows nud put them In a
big cage against their next shoot, which
was to come off In three days. But they
found ut the end of that time that all
the birds but six were dead.
They had fought and fought among
themselves until only these six Invinci
ble champions remained. The young
men concluded that they hud been so
unlucky us to cutch unusually vlle-tein-pored
birds, and ut considerable trou
ble they landed another butch. These,
too. however, battled together, qud af
ter forty-eight hours hud gone by there
lay hi the cage eighty-four dead spur
rows. while two live ones staggered
feebly to nnd fro, nnd, when their
breath returned, began to tight again.
The young men ure now convinced,
says the Philadelphia Itecord, of what
they should have known before, that uo
living creature U more ferocious or
more game than the common English
sparrow.
