WOMAN’S WOULD.

M och excitement of a sensational kind haa been rotmed in the breaata of the fair aex of Vienta relative to the magnificent and truly imperial tronwean got np by the chief Anatrian and Hungarian firms for the approaching nuptials of her imperial highness the Archdncheas .Marie Valerie, youngest daughter Of the emperor and empress of Anitria. The excitement reached its culminating point co the intelligence being echoed abroad that the Vienna public would be admitted to a suite of apartments in the Hofbnrg (the imperial residence) to inspect the trousseau on a certain day between certain hour* in the lather half of the week. %> The fact of so much magnificence and finery about to be exposed to the vulgar gaze was, in anticipation, regarded as a rare treat which many a fair one would willingly and heroically have sacrificed not a little to behold. Five ^aloons in •Kadetxky Apartments” of the Hof-

and the rich assortment of marvels of the toilet anil of domestic economy generally were certainly set off to no mean advantage, the display surpassing—and that is saying a great deal—the most sanguine expoctatiofis of the severest lady critics. ■ Household lines waa on view in profusion, while articles of underclothing were in texture and stylo all that possibly could be desired. The wedding presents of the imperial parents and of the various members of the imperial family to the bride elect consisted of jewels of great price, of serviceable and ornamental plate, of porcelain and glass, besides a quantity of beautiful lace. The gowns and “costumes” of her imperial highness will not be completed till just before the wedding day, to the pronounced mortification of a largo percentage of the would be gazers, who in the absence of the thing needfnl to complete ■' ‘ f category wont so far as h> reaei omission ms a personal affront costliness and beauty of the jewels and precious stones went, however, a long way toward appeasing the greed of that section of fair humanity who find redemption in silka and salvation in stuffs. And whose weakness for parasols and Bats is chronic and incurable. This is by no means the first time that the jewelers and silversmiths of Vienna and Buda-Pesth have won laurels at show* of this kind, and occasion enough cannot be said in praise of the artistic ingenuity and the originality of Conception characterizing the diadems, ihe ’'collieiB," the bracelets and the rings. Equal praise is duo to the manufacturers of the linen and the makers of the lace, while some portions of the needlework, embroidery, stitching and the like, in the chaste ness of its design and finish, were, to use the words at a lady admirer in thV crowd, “irreslstivi- i—Aw ■’ — Vienna Cor.

Tuesday evening about 8 o'clock the neighbors of Mrs. Kate Lynchbar were much alarmed to hear, a succession of shrieks issue from that lady’s residence sryl ran instantly to her assistance. They met Mrs. Lynchbar, who is a widow, as she rushed from the house holding her hsnds to her head^frat it was some time before she could calm herself sufficiently to tell them what matter. Her story was that having an ‘ to go to chnrch she had _ spare room for her bonnet, which, on coming home from morning service, she had pus temporarily table in the room. She picked np the bonnet, noticing tat it seemed unusually heavy, but put on her head; or tried to, for she waa prevented from doing ao by the presence of some body lb it too Urge to permit her head to enter. Before she could snatch it off, however, whatever it was struck her on the head,, she said, and frightened out of her wits she tore off the bonnet and what sha declared sht knew by the feel of its slimy body to be a snake.

The sailor hata will be worn for outing purposes more than ever, and those provided for the wife and daughters of the Prince of Wales are simple enough ' copied by tho sweet girls of our country. They are made of light weight white serge, have a head band of oiled silk,' and are simply trimmed with n serge ribbon and an enameled buckle of another pattern. An inch, or even a half inch difference in the height of the crown or the width of the brim makes all the difference in the world as to the hat sailing your own especial face, and will well repay the thought and care thus boWhilo many persons contend that they are from their simple outlines becoming to nearly every one, tho general verdict is that they are not for tho woman with a big nosa, with ngly ears or with a heavy lower face, and" the woman with, just these features—that is, the big nose and the beqyy lower face—is very apt to be just the sort of woman who cares but little for tho frivolities of life, and who yearns for just that simple form of headwear.

DILLON’S,

A few days ago an interesting catacomb was discovered at Kertch, InHhe neighborhood of the Tall tor quarter. The catacomb in question lies about fifteen feet under the surface and is divided Into three compartments. It is decorated with frescoes representing Hermes surrounded by winged genii and also with scenes taken from domestic life. The most interesting discovery of all waa an inscription, part of which forcibly reminds tSo reader of the one over Shakespeare's ashes. It runs, "Sonde, who never threw away the bone of the poor, haa raised for himself this sanctuary, and adjures all people that his bones were not robbed and defiled." This adjuration to posterity has been witbont effect, for the catacomb was already found to have been plnndered.-r Exchange. chloaco’. Wwlthy Spinster.
