Champagne, claret red, and Char-
treuse green are three prominent col-
ors among spring dress fabrics, both
for day gowns and for evening toilets.
The neutral champagne, pongee, fawn
and pale tan tints are prominent among
the plain and embroidered etamines,
voiles, crepes de chine, mistral canvas
weaves, twine doths and shark's skin
wool armures, says the New York
Post. A new invoice of goods that will
please economical shoppers includes
mercerized, polka-dotted piques near-
ly a yard wide and in fa*t colors
at ten cents a yard; American batistes
in either dark or light grounds, at 12'/,
cents; Madras and Lowell ginghams
in solid colors; corded stripes, clicks
and plaids, 27 and 32-inch wide, 21 ten
cents a yard, and fine Belfast dimities
at 22 and 27 cents a yard, in the latest
spring patterns.
New styles in covert coats are set
forth, for the wear of women, young
girls and children of any age. These are
exhibited in short, three-quarter, and
figure lengths, the front finished with
large smoke-pearl buttons, or else
there is an invisible fly-front fastening.
Coats of this kind are unlined, and be-
sides forming very seasonaWe wraps
for tie entire spring season, they will
prove very useful on cold days, during
the summer, over gowns of foulard
silk, pique, voile, etc.
New shirt waist suits appear, this
week, made of stripes and dotted dim-
ity, seaside canvas, fancy Madras, cot-
ton cheviot, mercerized cable cord,
Kharo cloth, and linens, plain an3 em-
broidered. Tucks stitched to flounce
depth appear on the five-gored flare
skirt, and the fulness at the back is
taken up in an inverted box plait,.
Many of the new silk or satin saish
ribbons are striped or barred with a
line of black velvet, that makes them
very becoming when used for blouse
vest fronts, stocks, ribbon roses, etc.
Entire waists are made of the wider
ribbons, and a pretty result is ob-.
tained by tucking the silk or sat in por-
tions of the striped designs, leaving
the black line untouched. This ren-
ders the velvet stripe quite prominent,
producing a stylish effect.
Novel French evening (Tresses of crepe
de chine and chiffon, and tea gowns
of tucked and shirred India silk,
creped wool and taffeta are displayed
at the importing houses tETs week.
The shirt waist suits of plain and em-
broidered linen and those of mercer-
ized cotton cheviot are trimmed with
the new Teneriffe embroideries, and
tailor-made silk and satin foulards are
decorated with strappings, tucks and
tiny white buttons.
Pope l.ro'ii Wardrobe.
The pope has the largest and most
costly wardrobe in the whole civilized
world. Three large rooms at the Vati-
can hardly suffice, to contain the pope\
wardrobe, and a special body of serv-
ants is told off to keep it in order.
Each day in the year has its appro-
priate garment, which varies in color,
weight and value, according to the
teason.—N. Y. Sun.

Pointer That Kinked Drowning «•
Retrieve n Wounded Gooae
tor Her Muter.
There is no doubt, say* the New
York Sun, that many a good retrieving
dog will drown himself in the pursuit
in the water of winged wild fowls un-
less forced out in some way. Some
sportsmen think this is foolishness on
the dog's part, and others think that
it is a mixture of gamenesS and loy-
alty.
A. VV. Burleson, of San Patricio, coun-
ty, Tex., owns a small pointer gyp that
came near to drowning recently The
pointer is not naturally o. water re-
triever, but some of the breed reach
near to perfection.
Burleson had beenstandingupon the
bank of a wide tank the evening be-
fore, shooting wild geese flying over
to roost on a salt bay. One of the birds
far up was wing tapped and came down
on a long slant, falling into the tank
a quarter of a mile out. The dog did
not notice it.
Next morning Burleson was walking
over the prairie and found this goose.
It had come out of the tank during
the night and had gone into a Email
pond not more than a quarter of an
acre in extent, but deep, andwas quiet-
ly swimming there.
When it saw the man it went to the
other side of the pond, but did not at-
tempt to climb on the bank. It was
in perfect condition, except for its
slight wound, a large gander and very
powerful.
The dog recognized Instantly that it
was a hurt bird, and plunged in w ith-
out a word of command, swimming
lusftly. The goose kept out of her
way easily for a little while, but was
penned in a corner of the pond. Then
it dived, went under the dog and came
up five yards away.
The dog turned and resumed the
chase. This unequal contest was kept
up for a quarter of an, hour.
The dog essayed diving several times,
but of course could not catch her ac-
tive adversary. Soon she was swim-
ming with her nostrils barely out of
water, and once or twice went under.
It was deaf to all commands. Her final
drowning was only a matter of min-
utes.
Burleson had no gun. As a last re-
source he gathered a little pile of
stones with w hich the edge of the pond
was thickly strewn and l>egan hurling
them at the goose.
Finally, ent irely by chance, he struck
the big 'bird on the back near the base
of the neck and stunned it for a mo-
ment. In that moment the dog grasped
it. She was so tired that she could do
nothing with it, but her hold at least
kept her head out •of water while the
goose thrashed her with its wings.
The battling pair, the distressed
snortings of the dog mingled with the
hoarse calls of the goose, fought their
way to within ten feet of the bank
and Burleson jumped in. The water
came to his armpits when he waded to
them. but. he grabbed hold of the goose
and wrung its neck with gusto.
Them he took the dog in one hand
and the bird in the other and lugged
them to the bank. The pointer, t o
exhausted to stand, flopped down on
he pebbles and lay panting.
Burleson says that no man need tell
him that his pointer acted in this way
from lack of sense; she has. he de-
clares, more sense than he has. Ac-
cording; toi him., she was swayed by
the mixed feelings of loyalty to her
calling and anger at the goose.

Thl« Year.
The year of grace 1902, which saw
the end of the Boer war, the prac-
tical end of the rebellion in the Phil-
ippines, the restoration of peace in
nearly all of China and the termina-
tion of half a dozen South and Cen-
tral American revolutions, will prob-
ably go down into time labeled as a
year of supreme peace. And yet in
1903 battles are waging in nearly a
dozen countries and war is abroad
upon every continent, says London
Answers.
The average reader, if asked to
name the wars now in progress,
would very likely stop uncertainly
after mentioning the struggle be-
tween Britain nnd natives in Somali-
land. But this is not the only war
of the day by any means. Here is a
little list of the pThces whereat bat-
tles have been going on, either no.v
or recently, with the names of the
opposing forces:
Venezuela.
Hay ti—Three revolutions.
The Afghanlstan-Tndian border—
Waziris versus British.
Morocco—Revolution to dethrone
the sultan.
Upper Nigeria—Arabs versus Brit-
ish.
Somaliland—British versus Somalis.
Southern Arabia—Arubs versus
Turks.
Macedonia- Turks versus Macedon-
ians and Bulgarians.
Sarawak--British native force ver-
sus Dyaks.
C'orca Corean regulars versus relv
Sumatra--Dutch versus Aehinese.
The guerrilla warfare in the lower
Philippines and the aftermath of the
Boxer trouble in China are not in-
cluded.
