The adjustment is accomplished ! by single bust-darts, under-arm and j side-back gores and a curving centrej baok seam, all of which are carried be* I yond the waistline in pointed outline, -J LADIES' AND MISSES' R . Annlnn iliof ID nniraranllT I a OUO^/iUg VUC*l Ak> 0. The fronts open npon a vest of -white satin-faced cloth, and are trimmed with parallel rows of braid. The vest is included in the shoulder and under-arm seams, and closes through the centre-front with button holes and small buttons. The neck is cut in V shape, displaying linen chemisette and white satin tie. An attractive feature is the neat coat collar, of the regulation tailor cut, the free edge of which are trimmed with braid. The sleeves, presenting a decided change from last season's models, are twoseamed, finishing with a slight puff at the shoulder. Cloth, serge, cheviot, novelty and other similar fabrics are all suitable, with braid or machine stitching as a finish. The model is admirably adapted to early autumn wear, and, in conjunction with a wellcut skirt, will complete that most practical and economical of costumes, a tailor-made gown. To make this basque for a woman of medium size will require two and one-half yards of forty-four-inch material. Itussian DiouHe ror L>mur> auu The stylish basque exhibited in the large illustration, and described by Mary Manton, is made of silk and wool novelty in the new shade of tan known as beige. The trimming is j black ribbon velvet that is applied to ' the edge of the right-front in a single j bend that holds to position straps of | the same width velvet having mi-.red i points. The sleeves are decorat f a the wrists wi :h a band of velvet ! deep frill of lace, and a fancy belt en- ! circles the waist. The hat accompanying is brown straw of sailor shape, the severity of which is somewhat relieved by a veiling of spotted chiffon. The blouse bodice is arranged over a glove-fitting lining that reaches to the waist line and closes in the centrefront. The fronts of the material are smooth-fitting across the shoulders and bust, with the fullness at the waist arranged in gathers and drooping over the narrow belt in slight j HL .. -'.v. ' ; .. ? ' 4 blouse efiect. The rii^lit-front overlaps the left and doses invisibly on the left side, which llushes with a full ruffle of butter-colored lace. The back is seamless, with a scant fullness at the waist laid in close overlapping plaits. The model shows an added basque that is joined at the waist to the blouse ; proper. These basques, or peplums, promise to be exceedingly popular during the coining season, being ex- ; hibited in the latest of Parisian impor- 1 tations. At the neck is a plain collar j nnroroil wJfli n ntrw?k r>f ribbon edcred ' with a divided frill of lace. The t sleeves are narrow and fit tlie arm j closely from the wrist to the elbow, j above which the effect is slightly ' wrinkled or mousquetaire. They are finished at the top with puffs of the same that are caught on the shoulders in graceful aud stylish effect. Waists of this description can be made of novelties, plain, checked, striped or plaid woolens or lightweight cloths, and may be trimmed with either ribbon, braid, passementerie or velvet. Silk, velvet and corduroy are also applicable to the mode. To make this waist for a lady in the medium size will require two and three-fourths yards of forty-four-inch material. Child'! Apron. Figured dimity, embroidered edg- ' ing and insertion were the materials used in making this neat and simple apron, but dotted Swiss, cross-barred muslin, striped aaa piam camoric, percale and gingham are equally suitable. The upper portion consists of a short fitted body having a straight lower edge, the neck being cut in low ; rounded outline. The skirt portion is simply gathered at the upper edge and joined to the body, a band of needlework concealing j the seam. A belt of insertion encir- ' cles the waist and is carried forward i USSIAN BLOUSE WAIST. to the centre, closing with button and button-hole. The skirt is hemmed deeply at the bottom; narrow hems finishing the back edges where the * closing is effected. An attractive feature is the fanciful bertha, cut in two sections, that is included in the neck, falling deeply over the sleeves and i forming an epaulette that adds to the breadth of shoulders and is universally becoming. Both it and the neck J.EAT AND SIMPLE CHILD'S APBOX. are finished with frills of embroidery headed by bands of insertion. To make this apron for a child of eight yeurs will require three yards of thirty-six-inch material. Florida, of all the States, has the most water within its boundaries,4440 square miles. HBpf A Few Items Picked Up From Various Sources ACCOMPLISHED NEGRO THIEF. Anderson's New City Hall?Charleston Will Receive Georgia Cotton? beward For a Murderer. A strange condition of affairs has come to light in the office of the register o' mesne conveyance for Greenville county. _A lawyer in looking up a title to real estate, made the discovery that the deed wa3 only partially recorded. This discovery disclosed the fact that entries in the record book have been improperly made during the year 1893 to 1396. There are instances where deeds are only half copied, the work being left off without the names of witnesses. In other cases the names of notaries taking affidavits of subscribing witnesses aDd rendiction of dower are omitted. Names of witnesses are left off or improperly placed. This will cause great inconvenience, but no loss is likely to result to property holders; but so long as deeds are improperly recorded a cljud wi 1 be thro wn 011 the title of each party iuteie-Ued. Col. J. T. Austin held the office during the years mentioned and S. W. Scruggs was his clerk part of the time. The whole trouble was the result of oarelessness. Mistakes are found in books Y, S, Aaa, Bbb, Ccc and possibly others. S. N. Stewart, the present incumbent, will correct the errors as far as possible. ?The Register. At Sumter, William Anderson, an employe at Mr. Edgar Skinner's gin house, met with a horrible death. He was standing in front of the gin, which was running at a high rate of speed. Stooping down, he reached his left arm underneath the rapidly revolving saws, and in some way his sleeve was caught by the teeth of the sawB. Ju au instant the unfortunate man was jerked up to the front of the gin and held fast while his arm was cut into shreds. As soon as possible the machinery was stopped and Anderson was extricated, but the deadly saws had done their work. Medical aid was summoned at once,but before a physiciuu could reach him death relieved him of bis suffering. A Amnanallail on/1 a jury ui iinjuea* v% a* ciu|'au?uvu ? verdict rendered in accrdance with the above. There has been some bold stealing done in Wedgetield in opeD daylight. Tom Frierson, colored, who had been absent for nearly two months, dodging the oficers of the law, returned last week And seized a bale of cotton, belonging to his brother Hayti, and sold the same to Mr. Dan McLaurin. Not being satisfied with this bale, he afterwards i'orged an order on the ginner and got another bale belonging to Irwin Keith. He also sold that bale to Mr. McLaurin, and after he had received payment for both bales, he left, walkin g. He went by his mother's farm, took two mules from the stable and sold them a'; Sumter. He left Sumter on the Florence train, pursued by Chief of Police Jiriidford.? The Register. Charleston's board of health at a recent meeting passed the following resolution which speaks for itself: "Resolved, that the product of the farm and manufactured goods, except sugar, rin? und mnlftspfts. will be rerinitted to comf to Charleston from Atlanta, provided the same does not originate in any infected points and places." This lets in some of the Georgia cotton which has always come to Charleston but lias recently been kept out by the quar intine restrictions. At the fall term of court at Lexington, the case that enlisted most interest was the State vs. H. J. Petit. It will be remembered this was the prosecution of the defendant, charging criminal negligence in the fatal collision near Swansea on October 14, 18W5. B. L. Abney, Esq., represented the defendant and managed the defense throughout with consummate legal skill. The jury, after five minutes' deliberation, promptly returned a verdict of not guilty. t. Charleston will have more than one direct line to Europe this season.

D Wolf, a policeman at Orangeburg, died from the wound he received by a negro whom he was attempting to arrest. The negro has not been arrested nf yet, and it seems to be understood that he will never live, if captured, to see the inside of the jail. The city council of Anderson has let the contract for the city hall to Jesse M. Smith. The contract calls for the buildirg to bo turned over by the 1st of April, 181)8. The price to be paid for the buiiding is $8,891. A reward of $100 has been offered by the Governor for the arrest and conviction of the person or persons who shot and killed llu'us flarliug, of Edgefield, on the 9th of September. < ?
