and u duplicate of this handsomely orna
6nientH tho muff. Another splendid
examplo of this huppy combination
Is a white nstrukhnn wrap with gracefully
mounted ruIIs on both muff nnd neck piece.
Into tho ht'iids of theso fashionable birds
gleaming Jewel eyes nro set nnd tho beaks
aro often mado of gun metal, tipped with
gold or silver.
(lories of (lie l.otmn Clunk,
Krom short and sweet neck comforters
to long nnd clinging evening nnd empire
pollsscs Is tho untuiul transition when
discussing winter wraps. Verily tho glory
of tho long coat Is moro genuine und dazz
ling than over before and It Is a fact well
known that many women who attend after
noon entertainments rofuao to tako on
their gorgeous circulars or velvet clonks at
nit, since tho whole richness of their eoa
tumcs lies In theso outer sheathlugs of
chiffon, fur, spangles, laco and flowers.
Two typically lino wraps nro sketched as
n sort of substantiation of this assertion.
Tho first, to which tho reader's attention
Is directed, Is a rat gray panno earrlago
coat, edged all about with nu Inch wldo
band of Hudson Hav sable. Over tho
shoulders turns a collar of gold tissue on
which blnck silk gulpuro Is laid, and upon
tho guipure weo black and silver spangles
aro applied. In front, over tho bust only,
Is this wrap fastened and two Jeweled
buckles servo as latches. Tho underslceves
aro of the thinnest, s; ftest cream whlto silk
muslin frilled upon straight Inslilo cuffs of
gold tissue nnd tho wrist bands nnd muff
are of tho soft brown sable.
In Intcstcstfng contrast Is tho Itojann
opera ccat, cut from rich Ophelia red vclvot.
Its broad nnd edging bands nro of ermine
und It has numberless I'lcrrnt frills of sil
ver chiffon, a now goods, by tho way, of
which nny fulry queon might reasonably
wish to havo u gown. Chiffon given both
body nnd brlllinnco by tho insertion of a
silver woof, Is tho nearest explanation that
words can givo of Its quality and beauty.
Hero let It bo said that never beforo has
chiffon prevailed to tho extent notlTablo
this season. It Is tho foundation not only
for tho lnco gnwps, but of tho laco coats
nnd evening enpes as woll. Coats thcro
are indeed of solid lace Russian, ronnls
sance, gulpuro, Malteso nnd Arabian that
fall to tho heels, and nccordoou-plented
chiffon Is tho solo outer nnd In
terlining material for those. It
forms ns well nil tho puffs nnd

Below tho shaped lace collarette, however,
as an accompanying Illustration shows, an
clghtoon-lnch ruche-edged Ilounco of chif

masses, tints of color that accord sympa
thetically with tho panne or satin that
underlies the lace incrustations of tho
collar proper.
Unique TflllR Arc Imperative.
One can hardly call the long basque tnll
an old familiar face nnd yet we have been
intimately concerned with It before. Hardly
ten years ago tho waist of every gown dis
played a tall Hint n cavalry horso might
envy and braided nnd buttoned ns gaily as
ono sees them now. Only tho women who
get their gowns from tho Huo do la Palx,
before tho basting threads are taken out,
nro displaying tnllod basques ns yet, but
theso aro straws enough to show which
way tho trade winds of fashion nro blowing.
It Is tho very, very modish thing to wear
a cloth skirt with a basquo of velvet of
tho fame color ns the petticoats nnd with
tha tails of that basquo cut spoon-shaped
and falling to tho knees. It Is also equally
smnrt to havo the back of the bnsquo cut
In two short, uquaro tails and weighted with
gold braid and gold buttons,
Nono of tho tails are box-pleated or
frilled in tho lrast anil whllo tho velvet
wnlat and cloth skirt display great enter
prise nnd Inspiration they are no more
admirable than the contrary combination
of a silk velours or English corduroy skirt
with a wnlst of cloth.
Artlstlo Inventions.
Whllo the question of novelties is up wc
may as woll mention painted chiffon and
Jeweled slippers among tho Inventions of
artistic minds. Tho dressing for dnlnty feet
In tho evening grows every year more luxu
rious, but a debutanto, who would rather
danco than oat nnd who had a pair of ridic
ulously small foet to bo shod for tho waltz,
can expend $10 on each foot and yet not
touch tho highest point of extravagance.
Tho highest point Is reached with a pair of
hoso mado sololy of chantllly or Spanish
thread laco. Only tho toes and soles nnd
heels nnd back upper halves of these stock
ings nro mado of spun silk; all tho re
mainder Is laco; pure costly black laco Is
tho most delicate fern or trefoil pattern ar
ranged In a design that contributes greatly
to Hid slender aspect of foot and anklo.
Upon tho foot that wear sUch hoso must be
drawn a pair of very hlgh-heoled patent
leather slippers, powdered at short In
tervals with minute rhlnestones of tur
quoise that nro set deep In tho leather,
nnd nt the point where sntln or lnco bows
would bo fnstened a smnll bow of rhino
stones Is set In tho leather to twlnklo like
dewdrops nt every motion of the foot.

When Santa Claus slips down the chim
ney on Christmas cvo he will probably
stare with amazement and admiration at
tho row of stockings swinging from the
mantel shelf, for tho like of theso up-to-dato
receptacles for presents ho probably
has novcr Been before. Thoy nro nil made
oy ono woman, irom whose factory, a
boarding house hall bedroom, something
llko 700 pair havo been turned out to meet
tho holiday demand. It wouldn't bo safe
to say Just how much money she cleared on
her sales, but, at any rnto, her profits far
exceeded hor expectations. Sometlmo In
Into November sho made up a lot of this
special unristmaa hosiery. Almost any
materials that enme to hand were avail
able, from bluo denim to brocaded satin,
and, with .1 big pair of scissors and n sew
lug machine sho was soon ablu to manu
facture ns many as fifty a week.
An ordinary stocking sufficed as n pat-
torn, but she cut out theso special hose on
a vory much lnrgcr scale; cut them In two
pieces; made tho leg long and generous
nnd then decorated them III a bewildering
vnrloty of styles. Sho put on her blue nnd
whlto and pink satin stockings tho most
gorgoous gold braid clocks, nnd finished oft
tho tops with elnstlc ribbon garters and
daunting bows, run through coquettish gilt
bucklos. Sho made cheerful looking rod
calico stockings, big enough to hold every
thing a boy's heart could wish nnd
trimmed tho tops with wreaths of nrti
flclnl holly, nnd on nearly all the stockings
Intended for children she worked. In gll
or whlto braid, a Christmas greeting.

Hut she did not content herself with only

sho turned out at least n bnkor's dozen of
protty silk nnd satin hoso to bo packod to

theso sho made really exquisite gnrtcrs
Into tho centers of nny ono of which
costly brooch or buckle could bo fastened
tho wholo to form a most acceptable Christ

A few of her bonbannlercs had their satin
Ili9teps smartly spangled. Tho foot of the
gay bag was thrust Into a vory tiny high
neoicu supper. Tho leg was stiffened to

and the costliest sugar plums in tho mar
net wero used for the filling. Sho sold a
nan nozen 01 tnese and had orders for
twice as ninny more as she could fill; but

Womnn suffrago was established In Colo
rado In 1S93. Until this year thoro has
been no accurate menus of separating the
mnlo from tho female vote, says tho New-
York Sun. This year In Arnpahoo county,
which Includes tho city of Denver ami whl.-h
casts moro than a qunrter of tho whole
oto of the state, such a division was mado
by the county clerk and ns a result of his
computation It was shown that of tho total
voto of Denver, which wan C5.000 on presi
dent this year, 32,000 votes were cast by
men nnd 23,000 by women. The percentage
of women residents and presumably women
voters is much less In tho mining districts
of tho state of Colorado than In the capital
city of Denver and a local estimate of tho
CRAY FOX

GAUNISHED WITH OWL
probable dlvlsiou of tho voto of Colorado
makes It 70 per cent enst by mou nnd 30
ner cent cast by women.
In this year's presidential contest Colo
rado cast 122.CCO votes for Ilrynn and CI
000 for McKlnley nnd there doesn't 'nppeur
to havo been nny serious dlvergcnco be
tween tho percentage of women who voted
for Drynn ns compared with tho number of
men nnd of tho number of women who
voted for MrKlnley ns compared with tho
number of men. If anything, tho proportion
of women voters for Ilrynn seems to havo
been larger than the ratio for McKlnley
and it Is a sotnowhat curious circumstance,
for which sundry explanations are given,
that tho stntcs which havo adopted woman
suffrngo nro usually those which either by
accident or design have been on tho wrong
sldo of nubile questions.
In 1S9G there wero threo states In which
equal suffrage, without rt strict Ion ns to sex
nrovnlled Colorado. Utah nnd Wyoming
All three wero carried by Hryan against
McKlnley, nnd by considerable majorities
in tho case of Colorado and Utah. In the
Drcsldentlal election of 16UC nn amendment
was submitted to tho voters of Idaho so
altering fho stnto constitution that, if
adopted, women In Idaho would vote on
eoual terms with mon therenftor. It was
udontcd by a voto of nearly 2 to 1, 12,000
mnlo electors In favor nnd 0,000 malo elec
torB opposed.
Tho stnto election for governor of Idaho
In 1S0S was held subject to tho nowly es
tablished rulo ns to suffrngo nnd women
voted for presidential electors on tho Bamo
terms with men this year, but tho ex
pected reversal of political sentiment In
favor of tho progressive policies represented
by tho republicans did not materialize. In
1890, with only malo voters participating
Idaho cast 23,000 votes for Ilrynn. Thl3
yonr with women voting ns woll ns mon
tho Ilrynn voto In Idaho wns 20.000, nn lu-
creaso of 0,000, though In tho neighboring
states of Washington, Oregon anil Mon
tana the Hryan voto fell off. In Wyoming
with woman sulfrago In forco this
yoar ns four yenrs ngo, tho Hryan
voto was substantially tho same ns
In 1896. Idaho was tho only ono
of tho western stntes of tho country In
which tho nrynn vote wns Increased.
Why states In which fomnln surtrago is
established by lnw have usunlly been on the
wrong sldo politically Is a debatable ques
tlon. Tho advocates- of woman suffrngo
say that tho western stntes which hnve

muff with nil savo her dinner nnd dancing

sho Is going her muff Is of pineapple or

chenille or ostrich feather clipping and
resplendent with n knot of really exquisite
artificial flowers. Theso aro the mulfa that
accord with tho laco und chiffon evening
coats nnd it Is no unusual sight to see n
woman sweep Into tho piny house carrying
u muff of ash gray chiffon, from which n
shower of bright flowers and gold-tlppcd
ribbon ends drop nearly to the lloor. Such
muffs do nlso nppcnr at the afternoon re
ceptions, though n trllle more fnshinnnblc
nro largo trumpet-shaped handwnrmcrs

dlngle-dnngle3. They nro strictly earrlago
muffs with narrow waists and cuds During
widely open, and it Is very obvious that
they aru Invented to hnrmonizo with tho
1SC0 savor so visibly Influencing ull depart
ments of dress. When sloping shoulders,
iindorslceves and small waists wero es
teemed big bcllmouthcd muffs prevailed nnd
they aro now making theso In fur nnd
cloth.
A iloth muff, If It is properly shaped
nnd trimmed, goes Just ns far toward es
tablishing Its owner's reputation for care
ful dressing nnd general elegance as docs
a round linger comforter of sable, seal or
broadtail. Tho cloth muff must, however,
boast elnborato ornamentation. Its two
ends should show wreaths of laco frills, and
011 tho exterior of Its shirred or puffed body
n flashing high nrt buckle, through which
Liberty ribbons nro drawn, must appear;
or a handsomo knot of violet floworH be
longs In this post of honor. When ribbons

On tho street tho fur mull is naturally
onough nt onco tho most elegant nnd uso-
ful protector for tho hnnda. Tho most
splendid effect In fur Is still secured by tho
uso of tho ever rarer and costlier fox
though nny cleverly dyed fox fur given this
magic name answers almost ns well, and costs
one-fourth tho price, of tho right rare nnd

is ample In girth with tho silken brush

his bend nnd fore paws depending from tho
other. A lamb skin mult Is gracefully
finished with clusters of flno black fox
tails drooping from a hnndsomo Jeweled
