SUMMER IN THE CITY AND SEASHORE.
The Kxtrciue Hut Wrnllier Theatrical

iKtiiTouiAt. ConitKni-oNDKNcr..
Just now tho great inotroKi)U of America
Is not In its most Attractive splendor, nor do
tho denuens enjoy homo Urn any too well.
Tho weather, during my stay of a week has
boon excessively warm, iiueomfortatilo to live
by day, and tho heat hy ttl(ht Iwlng such as to
prevent sleep like unto our neiiraskn siumttcrH.
This Is certainly 0110 big advantage wo havo
over tho olToto cast. It may lx hot enough dur
ing tho day to roast a good dinner In tho sun,
hut nt 11 Iglit wo seldom fall to obtain n cool
nnd (pilot sleep. Tho atmosphere in tho city
hns Itccn so oppressive that during the at
few days, hundreds havo liecii stricken down
in tho streets, and n great many deaths havo
been reported lit tho daily (wilier. A fair Idea
of tho extent of heat may I hi formed from tho
fnct that n gentleman was prostrated In Ceil
trnl park yesterday, and this Is considered 11
very cool place.
Tlio seashore resorts uro Just opening for tho
season nnd It is at near by-jwlnU that tho
Now Yorker seeks frequent cool roiKwos from
tho city's mighty heat. Coney Island Is easily
nnd speedily reached hy several routes, of
which tho most popular is tho nil wnter route,
Thero nre no vera I ways to reach tho island hut
that of tho Iron Mtenmhoat Co,, is tho only 0110
that goes by wntor entire. This Isn U-nutlful
ride, affording tho plensuro seeker n lovely
view of tho bay mid hit; hnrlior, with such at
tractions along the route ns the famous Htntuo
of I.lliorty, Governors Island, Brooklyn
bridge, tho former nnd latter presenting par
ticularly handsome pictures on returning nt
night, lx)th being hriliniitly illuminatetl by
eloctriclty. Tho Iron steamboats nro largo
nnd commodious, having n capacity of from
1000 to 2200 pawtenger. They hnvo trlplo
decks and inako tho run In (lfty minutes, and
tho fnro Is very cheap, (fifty cents round trip)
thus affording everybody an opportunity to
go frequently. The other transportation Hues
go part by rail and tho balance by water.
Un Friday I vlsitod Coney Island and yes
terday, which wns renlly ooiiliig dny, for It
was tho first very largo gathering tho now
bench has had this Rummer. I visited Brigh
ton nnd Manhattan bench, on both occasions
accepting tho opportunity to dnuivn my i
son in tho waters of tho mighty deep; music
filled tho nlr, and bathers by tho hundred
filled tho beach, nnd it was altogether very
elegant. Notwithstanding tho fact that It was
Sunday, tho hctel.i nnd other seaside resorts,
ns well ns Manhattan ImnicIi, wns visited by
Now York's host element and oftentimes while
waiting for n breaker to coma thundering

or know hy sight, most ovorj prominent per
sou, would from time to time point out various
looplo of prominence both In and out of tho

hero knows, is for tho refined clement, wlillo
Coney Island is visited by all classes, the for
mer, howover, havl ig njliotter bcach.and su
perlor accomodations.
I visited Buffalo Bill's Wild West, on Frl.
day and from what I had hoard of it, expect
ed much, and it Is but Just to say that my ex
pectations were more than realized. Tho
show consists of fancy riding, oxcrt marks
mntislilp, exhibit showing various modes of
life on the plains in tho early history of tho
west, etc. The attraction Is located at Eras
tlno on Htaton Island and is doing big business.

How Men Dress at Weddings.
At noou weddings tho ushers, especially if
tboy are very young men, wear cutaway
ooata of flne black diagonal cloth, with white
plquo vests and very dark strlpod trousers,
tnoro bluo than gray in tone, Tholr scarfs
are of whlto China crupo, or of white Bon
gallne, In which, stuck In one corner, is n
scarf pin, the gift of tho groom, their glovos
nre pearl colored, with blnck cording or
stitching on tho back; their shoes are of pat
ent leather, with dull kid uppers, and tholr
very largo boutoiinlcresaroof tho whlto rosos
of Juno, with a littlo sprig of tho cultivated
nspnrngus amid tho row leaves; whlto ribbon
loops sometimes show conspicuously In those
wedding favors, but are moro often conflnod
to tho coachman nnd footman of tho carrlngo
in which tho brldo is taken away from the
churcli. At afternoon weddings tho frock
coat with black vest Is most generally
worn, yet tho cutaway coat Is by no means
limited to morning weddings. Tho groom
nnd his best man, as thoy appear together at
tho altar to await tho bridal procession, must
bo dressed alike In frock coat and vest of
supernno blncli cloth, with dark striped
trousers, whlto silk or crepo do chlno scarf
and j)oarl colored gloves stitched with jionrl,
not with black, llko thoso of tho ushors. This
is tho groom's dress for dny weddings nt any
hour, and does not prevent tlio ushers from
wenrlng cutaway morning coats with whlto
vest. After 7 o'clock, nt evening weddings,
nil gentlemen groom, host man, ushers nnd
guests wear evening dress, with swnllow
tall coat, low cut vest nnd trousers of black
west of Knglnnd cloth plain or clso slightly
embroidered shirt bosoms, folded whlto lawn
nocktn-i and whlto kid gloves, with silk socks
and patent leather shoes. Harper's Bazar

Tho remaining ilguro shows a hat recently
deecrilxx! in Harper's Baxar along with othor
tennis fashions. It is known ns th., nlmtn
hat and Is of Bailor shape, with the brim cov
erod with whlto serge, and the crown with a
fislurmnn's cap of spotted silk. It maybe
of Interest to our readers to learn that the

suit, tho ldousonnd lower skirt of which is
mado of spotted twillod silk, while tho apron
