The 0 ilga muff is R most convex
ient , stylith and dressy little arrange
ment , serving the double purpose ol
niutT and reticule , and intended to be
made of silk , si-tin , plush or velvet ,
It is trimmed nt the sides with lace ,
and ornamental on the outside with a
large bow of satin ribbon. It maj
bo made of goods to match the cos
tuine , wrip or bonnet , or of an en
tirely different material , as preferred.
Another pretty muff is of brown
satin lined with satin sublime. The
centre is shirred in very close shir
rincs , the f aim forming full double
raffles at the ends. Under these ruf
flea are placed others of Breton lace.
A knot of artificial flowers is placed
at one end of the muff , and a flat ,
wide gold cord serves to suspend ii
around the neck.
An old fogy exchance , talking

her before breakfast ? Hours before.

sarcasm , "good night" abont three
o'clock ID the morning. This gives
the girl four hours or more in which
to get ready for breakfast , and if she
can t fix herself np in that time , she
is a alow coach. "See her before
breakfast , " indeed. Did you suppose
the boys went away before nine

Among the very newest street COB <

and wool on a solid , uniform color.
The skirt is of wool , trimmed witt
plush , the deep jacket of plush linec
with silk or farmers' satin , and the
cap and muff which accompany the
.costume of plush , also lined irlthfarm
rs' satin , and trimmed with cords bu
not tassels. The substitute for thosi

concealed by bows of satin ribbons
The sldoa of thete dainty little muffi

more shining fabric. These completi
costnmoa of plush and vlcuagoa clotl
or ribbad c&shinero are well adaptei

General McCook reports that the
army schools are doing good work ,
but that a change in the system of
providing teachers is needed.
There arc two day schools alreadj
established at Rjyby , the new Eug-

Indiana 1 dies. A board school is in
course of erection.
At the recent meeting of the New
Eiii'land school superintendents , Col.
I'urker's work in Quincy found such
result as is implied in the passage of
this resolution : "That the interests oi
.the public schools of New England
requite that tbev be committed to the
care of efficient skilltd supervision. '
Iowa has in her public schools a
average attendance of 205,000 an < ]
21,000 toichen. It is coinplaiiiet

Superintendent Taylor , of San
Francisco , mikus a curious statement
in his roceii'ly presented report. He
says : "In this city the t acber , irre
spective of qua ificttions and experi
ence , provided sbo or he. hold a certifi
cate , who can bring the most pi es-
sure 10 bear on the board of educa
tion , is almost euro of the appoint
ment. The directors seem to forget
or lisa sight of the fact that they
were elected to watch over the inter
ests of the schools aud not to serve
their friends and themselves. "
Reminiscences of R Driver.
D-iftini ; around in quest of some
thing of iutera-t to the public , a Pats-
burg CominorcLil Gazette reporter
dropped into the Union depot of that
city. A' 'he entrance ensconced on
one of 'ho benches attired in a heavy
ovc'coit he founds hackuian who had
jrown ; r zzed aid gr.iy in the service ,
and who , as the re ; orter aj.preached ,
drew hin.s If np as though ho was sit
ting on t' e box behind a softn of fast-
l < iivj nxgs , and snapping his whip
with th- air .f a cuui.oliseur he said , *
'Dimness ia getting dull in my lino.
[ don'c nuke thu good hauls that I
used to. I 'spose , young man , that I
have hauled more people of note in
hut hick of mine onlthcrc than nil the
rest of the hackmeu in this town-to
gether. " ' llow is thai ! " queried the
reporter. "Well , I have hauled all
the great actors and actresses that
tiave come to this city for the past
twenty years. Seems to me that the
[ xofeftsion is getting to kno.T ma , and
whenever I see Lawrence Barrett get
off the train I saya , 'How are you ,
Mr. Barrett ! ' and ho turns nround
and recognizes me. Barrett is a good
fare and pays double , so he don't for-
; et the hackmen. The last time that
tie was hero I hauled him to the hotel
and then to the theatre , and when he
got oat he felt in his pockets and found
le hadn't & cent with him. I says ,
'All right , Mr. Barrett , ' and he told
me to call at the hotel the next day.
C went around and he gave me
a gold piece. Barrett is gener
ous to us hackmen , aud al
ways hu a kind word or a joke to paw
with us. He Is not like old Forrest ,
who is dead and gone. I hauled him
down from the depot once , and my
: rent axle broke at the comar of
Grant street. I thought old Forrest
would kill me. He jumped out of
the hack and stormed and raged and
swore like a mad-man. I tell you ho
was not a nice easterner to handle.
Alice Oatea in her palmy days used to
30 a very d inty customer. She would
come put and look into my coach very
carefully before getting in , and was
dreadfully afraid that the cushion
would soil her drees ; then she would
look at the horses and the rig to see if
It was atylish. Within the last few
yean , however , she has not been near
so particnlar. She has changed a
great deal since those early days.
Formerly she would come dancing out
In a vivacious , sprightly way , that
made her look very pretty ; bat now
when she comes here she walks to my
eack with her head down , as slow and
demure aa a priest. The don't seem
to care now whether the cushions soil
'her dress or not. She always paid
mo well , and I rate her among my
bo t fares. I suppose you remember
when that old Italian Salvini washere.
Well , he was a curious fare ; he
oonldn * t speak English , and when I
started for the hotel would rattle on
the window and stick his head out
looking at the buildings. He stopped
me on Smithfield street , and pointed
to the smoke overhead it was rather
misty that day and he did not seem
to understand what caused It.
Fechter was a mighty particnlar
man about driving , and would almost
always make me drive alow. When
he came here to open the opera house
I hauled him from the depot , and he
began reheartlng some
hapk and got very much excited.

get him every time he comes here t
lecture ; always has a kind word and
joke and never gets mad if I getatncl
in a crowd of wagons. He alway
gives me a pass to his lectnret.
Theodore Tilton is a cranky sort o
a fare , and never would eay much ti
me. I tried to draw him out two o
three times when I have hauled him
but he would always tell me to mini
my own business. He always sav
that he gave mo the right fare and n <
more I tell you what it is , taking

hotel one night , and she told me t
wait and take her to the theater. Th
front window was gpen , and she woul
ask me all sorts of questions abou
