Wanted Wylde Green six in family mure competent person liberally Daily FOR THE LADIES Millinery is delightfully picturesque this spring Many of the French model toques are purely of the Loui3 Seize period and might have been worn by Marie in fact some have been modified from portraits of tho ill-fated and charming queen Others again savour of Charlotte naps Horsehair lace studded with jet scquina is much worn over black or coloured chiffon and tulle spotted with chenille in black or black on white looks charming draped over rose pink or turquoise blue iSatin straws straw and -open work Tuscan are amongst the very newest but black and white will be a favourite straw this season Many toques are veiled in a silvored gauze that looks a trifle theatrical but our eyes have yet to grow accustomed to the new fashions Quills and swans feathers are spangled with steel or jet which gives a sort of pea appearance Tho hem neck ribbons in watered silk for watch eyeglass or charms are fascinatingly quaint Some have tiny snakes or lizards to form a clasp The royal blue chenille spotted veils have made their appearance and there is some talk of coloured veils being worn Lovely muslin velvets are made in shaded colouring of the most "Loio Fuller hues The introduction of chenille is quite noticeable and is most effective in black over white Velvet bodices will be much worn with day and evening gowns A dainty liodice is made of chiffon cut square at the neck and with puffed sleeves The chiffon is artistically bunched over the silk lining and held in place by indescent ornaments A bunch of flowers at the shoulders gives the finishing touch Pretty mending bags for silk stockings are made in the half-moon shape familiar in cretonne as the general darning bag A soft silk of an all-over pattern is selected and the usual needle-case added in the centre of the semi-circle the whole bag is made upon a slightly reduced plan from that generally used For dancing gowns the lightest and flimsiest of fabrics are used especially for quite young maidens Though they may not be elaborately trimmed and made very simply some of them are costly on account of their short life Fora first ball or dance this however is not always a great point of consideration the beautiful effect produced' being more important One evening gown of exquisite loveliness was of white mousseline de soie embroidered at the edges Sashes and scarfs are alone a study and with them well selected and carefully arranged a plain gown becomos chic and tasteful os by the touch of a wand Among the many it is difficult to choose one or another as better or preferable The only law which it i safe to lay down declares in favour of simplicity for the growing girls and gives preference to ribbon and the material over frilled silk and elaborately arranged chiffon Roman strqjes flowered ribbon plain colours and stripes that arc less varied than the Roman are all in vogue for both sashes and scarfs and are chic in the extreme The mors costly and elaborate sashes show a finish of knotted silk fringe which is always handsome but plain simple nbbon tied in a generous bow is all that any girl jed crave All silken petticoats should bo made with corsets to match them and this need not involve excessive expenditure The possession of a pair of black brocaded silk corsets flowered in pink and blue will enable one to wear a petticoat of tho same material in the daytime and a plain blue or pink silk in the evening always supposing that expenditure be an object for if not then white satin brocaded corsets for the eveuing over a petticoat of white glace much frilled should be worn Get three pieces of ribbon one piece 15 inches long the next 12 the next 9 Fasten all three to a brass ring at the top Have one pieco overlapping each other the ehortesfe on top fringe the bottom of each Buttonhole over the ring with silk to match the ribbon using any preferred colour and write the motto in gilt letters on the upper piece 1 cannot toll where the mark should On the piece hanging just below this but keep the On the third piece of ribbon "if place The maiden who has a slim waist may let it be known that she is not averse to sashes when the question of presents is under discussion A sash of plaid ribbon in which red and white predominate is edged with a zigzag insertion of black lace and ruffed with black chiffon Another made of satin-striped moire ribbon bas a girdle of crushed ribbon caught in at the front by a hoop of cut steel The ends of the sash are joined together by a strip of black insertion about V2in wide A ruffle of black chiffon about 3in deep forms a bias finish to the end oi the sash and is duplicated midway between the waist and the end A most effective sash is of black satin ribbon cut into small bias strips with lace insertion The girdle is pointed at the sides and caught down in front by a steel buckle ASSOCIATION Second Rotted Nottingham Forest Gainsborough

Albion Sheffield Wednesday Cup tie to be decided at Stoney Lane to morrow afternoon In addition to the exercises the Albion players have of late been taken over to Droitwich for a brine bath occasionally and all are reported to ha in excellent health Banks is slowly recovering from the injury to his eye but be will not be able to play on Saturday and McManus being somewhat out of form it is auti-ci listed that the selectlou for left half-back will fall upon Itadlcy who has assisted the first team on many occasions this season Reid it is reported has also completely recovered from the injury to his side It may be interesting to mention that the Albion and Sheffield Wednesday have met three times in the English Cup competition one engagement being in the semi-final but the West Bromwich men have been victorious each time The team for to-morrow which will lie finally selected to-uight will probably be as Goal Reader backs Cave and Williams half backs Perry Jones and Hadley forwards Bassett Flewitt Reid McKenzie and Garfield The Rugby Union Committee have under consideration the advisability of cancelling the North South match at Exeter on Saturday February 26 and substituting the much-desired contest between England and Wales No decision however has yet beeu arrived at as in the absence of a committee meeting the question has to lie settled by correspondence with different members of that body The crisis In the affairs of the Loughborough club long feared hn9 come at last Never since the club quitted the Midland League for the more select circles of the Second Division of the League proper have the gates been adequate for the maintenance of a good team A large debt has accumulated and the committee have decided to face the inevitable and seek relief from professionalism wages The team will therefore be almost exclusively eomposeu of local talent in the remaining Second League engagements It is taken for granted in Loughborough that another season will see them excluded from the competition Hillman indignantly repudiates the statement that he is leaving Dundee at the end of the season and threatens legal penalties against the sporting press for voicing the rumour The United League dabs are to play a North South match at Woolwich on March 7th The former Bide was last night selected as follows Williams (Luton) goal Qardie (Longh-borugh) and (Luton) backs Pell (Kettering) Stewart (Luton) and another half-backs Denton (Rushden) Peg (Loughborough) Donaldson (Luton) Miller (Kettering) and Bellingfield (Rushden) forwards The Small Heath team to meet Luton at Coventry Road tomorrow will be Goal Clutterbuck backs Archer and Pratt half-backs Dunlop Leake and Robertson forwards Hare Oakes Lewis Abbott and Wharton Arrangement bavo been made for telephonic messages from the English Cup tie matches West Bromwich Albion Sheffield Wednesday and Wolverhampton Wanderers Derby County every 15 minutes Byrne th captain of the English Rugby fifteen who as briefly stated yesterday is shortly to go on a business tour round the world intends to stay in England until th close of the Rugby season which is good news for England and also Moseley who have a great chance of winning the Midland Counties Cup this season Mr Byrne however starts immediately at the termination of the football season and this means that he will be lost to Warwickshire for the whole of tbe ensuing cricket season which will be a sad blow to the county for he was one of their most consistent batsmen last season He rarely failed to get double figures and hit up a hundred in the first match in which he participated SPORTING ITEMS Monkside an excellent greyhound ia his day died last Tuesday The Birmingham and District Licensed billiard tournament was

somewhat severely injured Roberts and Diggle made further progress yesterday in their billiard match in London At the adjournment the respective scores were: Diggle 19711 Roberts 18201 In the evening Roberts made leading breaks of 85 261 436 189 and 251 (unfinished) while the best by Diggle were 56 32 59 81 and 158 and at the close of play the respective scores Diggle 20204 Roberta (in play) 19570 Roberts is thus steadily advancing Last night at a committee meeting of the Midland Counties Amateur Athletic Association held at the Great Western Hotel the Sub-committee appointed to consider what form the proposed testimonial to the retiring president(Mr Holmes) should take suggested that members of clubs affiiliated to the association be invited to subscribe and that the first portion be devoted to an illuminated address the balance if any to be applied to the purchase of a present in some form Mr Holmes would like An important item waa brought up during the consideration of the application for a license from Mr Furniss of Derby It was decided that Mr application was informal as he did not belong to an affiliated club Out of certain circumstances that arose during the consideration of this application it was decided by the association to investigate athletic affairs in Derby further The best attendance of the week witnessed last night's game in the bicycle Polo Tournament at Bingley Hall Captain Gorham for Columbia played his usual dashing game excelling in aggressive work aud was credited with four of the six goals Fcored by his team Result of game 60 points Metropolitan 40 points Totals of tournament to date Columbia 200 points Metropolitan 150 Considerable surprise has been caused in hunting circles In the Midlands In consequence of the unexpected resignation of Dick Stovin the huntsman of the Hcythrop hounds which Mr Albert Brasscy MP is the master and which were lately hunted by Captain Denis Daly of Shinington Hall Stratford-on-Avon Stovin has been eight seasons with the Heythrop and has shown excellent sport He was formerly huntsman to the Bicester under Lord Valentis MP and when he left that country he was presented by the Earl of Jersey on behalf of tho hunt with a sum of about £900 as a mark of appreciation St Cloud II was very unlucky to lose the Cambridgeshire but the 7st he carried upon that occasion was a widely different weight from his impost at Lincoln Report from Newmarket says that he will strip a greatly-improvea colt when next seen in public and it may be that he is one of those exceptional animals that do not reach their zenith at the end of their three-year-old season Yet one cannot see that he has an ounce in hand of Chelandry at even weights on the St Leger running and over this Bhorter course it looks to be odds upon Lord Rosebery's filly beating him The second of a series of competitions organised by the Midland Professional Golf Club took place at Sutton Coldfield yesterday There were twenty-seven starters representing Derby-sliire Nottinghamshire Warwickshire Worcestershire and Staffordshire The record for the course is 74 but the wind rendered low scoring difficult The winner was Williamson a young Notts professional whose aggregate score was 162 Cawsey Norton and Ross of Sutton tied for second place with 163 and Brown the ex-champion and Lewis

the accuracy of the weight and truth? laid down by all her Judges that no one is compelled to answer questions which may incriminate him-Belf I hesitate to reply to such a general query Anglers from time immemorial have had tho reputation of being closely related to Ananias and even to-day are never accused of imitating (Jeorgo Washington in the matter of truthfulness In fact 1 have known fishermen who have landed a 71b pike from tho Avon at Binton which by the time it reached Birmingham had grown to twice its size It may be that railway travelling his something to do with it That each mile adds so many ounces to fish It is a notorious fact that men who have phenomenal catches seldom allow tho fish to do weighed at the club bouse As a rule they are generous anglers these men and before they reach home with their 201b basket of roach havo managed to meet a friend who has been presented with half tho weight Pike are especially subject to dwarfage When landed they scale a dozen pounds but hen displayed to the wife tho pike has Hhrunk to an ordinary six or seven-pounder I mean to say that "All men are well that all anglers are exagtrerators of fact There are some men who cannot help looking at things with eyes which bam Weller characteristically described as being equal to "a pair patent double million gas microscopes of hextra Anglers suffer from optical illusions and are apt to weigh the catches with mythical weights which havo never received tho official stamp But generally I cannot admit that tho charge of untruthfulness is deserved by the whole body of disciples They are as a rule too honest to attempt to win fame among their fellow club members by untrustworthy records or false weights Thoexaggeratora are generally found out and when once discovered they lor ever lose the confidence of their brother anglers I The controversy now going on between the coarse fishermen and the Severn Board of Conservators is attracting a good deal of attention throughout tho Midlands and in the last issue of that excellent journal the fishing Gazette the Shropshire representative of that paper dealing with the question says As to anglers ana their interests it is to be regretted that the long continued friction between the coarse fish representatives and the Board is by no means at an end There appears no likelihood of the vexed question whether or not fishing avowedly for coarse ro legally compelled to tako out licenses being definitely ettlc3 in the near future and until this is set at rest confusion must everywhere exist At one court the magistrate will hold that a person using a bait which may take trout and fishing where trout are to be found must take out a trout license and the luckless wight who relies upon his ability to prove his right to free fishing will find himself convicted while another bench of magistrates will perhaps dismiss a case whoso facts are precisely similar The problem will have to be solved before a High Court ere tho position of the board and of the anglers is ascertained The argument that in each case questions of fact have to be considered holds good so far as it goes but it by no means disposes of the matter How the ridicuonsly small staff of poorly remunerated bailiffs is to work even as efficiently as it has been doing with difficulties such as these facing them is a subject which should be seriously considered by the executive commit tee of the board The Birmingham Anglers threaten that unless the Severn Board do something for them they will appeal to the Board of Trade to establish a separate Board for tho protection of coarse fish I do not however for a moment think that the Board of Trade will agree to any division of authority The complications and conflicts between the organisations would be too serious to calmly contemplate At the annual meeting of tho Worcester and District Angling Association Mr Wingfield the district secretary a member of the Severn Board of Conservators presented his report which showed that the afcsociation was in an extremely prosperous and satisfactory condition He also referred to the Severn license question and claimed that the Fishery Board showed a desire to intensify and not to heal the difficulty The St Stephen 8 Angling Society have secured a nice bit of fishing in the Avon at Milcote opposite Ludding-ton Church near Stratford-ou-Avon Among the coming events I may mention that the Lamp Angling Society have arranged for a bye contest in the Avan at Wyre near Pershore to take place on March 6 and tho Good Intent dinner has been fixed for the last Wednesday in the month The Lozeils Falcon a club which has acquired a part of the Avon at Marl Cliff near Bidford held their annual 'dinner on Wednesday In view of the fact that the Severn Fishery Board intends to net the pike from the Severn in the neighbourhood of Bewdley lovers of this fishing should avail themselves of the sport at once Good baskets of roach and dace have been had Worcester district during the week In the Avon atSiratford practically nothing has been done although pike are feeding well In the Binton and Bidford stretches anglers have been out and have had some good baskets of roach and dace from the deeper swims gentles nd small beardlings being the most suceessf ul bait So far as the Trent is concerned few anglers havo been out but those who have tell me that the dace are now advanced in spawning operations and ought not to be taken the same remark applying to chub Pike have not responded well during the week Trout in all the streams are well advanced and a good season is expected Mr Charles Dance of the Rose and Crown Society while fishing the olub waters at Stourport on Sunday laat caught a roach in very fine condition weighing lib 5oz PISCATOR 1 9 3BBgggggSBSgg DR ORCHESTRAL CONCERT There was a much larger attendance at Dr concert last night which was the third of the present eeries than we have hitherto seen during his season the Town Hall being well filled in every part The constant ensemble playing of practically the same orchestra that bas done such good service at the Festival Choral and Mr George orchestral concerts is bearing good fruit each individual conductor being able to impart to the works submitted for hearing his own interpretative conception Dr talent as a conductor was fully shown last night in the fine rendering of fourth Symphony No one can listen to this delightful work without being attracted by its pro- found sweetness grace and melodic charm If it does not compare in grandeur with the Eroica or the minor it is nevertheless one of the most attractive sym- phonies of the immortal nine Schumann spoke of the fourth as standing between the Eroica and the minor like a slender Greek I maiden between two Norse giants The work i was first performed in the spring of 1807 at a subecrip-tion concert for benefit and has often been given in our Town Hall by Mr Stockley A concert is nowadays incomplete without Wagner and knowing i Dr predilection for tho great Bayreuth master we were not surprised that the programme included some notable excerpts which consisted of the overture to Die Meixter singer and the concert arrangement of the Good Friday music from Parsifal The overture like the Tannhauser has of late been repeatedly given at various concerts and is now so familiar an item that no further reference need be made to it The conoert 1 opened with it and Dr Winn realised a masterly and I impressive rendering each department in his large orchestra being admirably balanced It will be remembered that the "Good Friday was first introduced to a local audience by Dr Richter at our Festival of 1894 The music is based on a series of typical phrases or motives that are employed in the I drama Dr Winn had evidently BESTOWED EVERT CARE in the preparation of the Warner items the performance of which nas to be recorded the finest achievement of i the orchestra under his baton Referring again to the ay pi tony we wish to point out that the last movement I the allegro vivace was admirably given although the 1 tempo seemed to us to be more accelerated than we have been accustomed to The only other purely orchestral number consisted of Delibes ballet suite of which the intermezzo and the March of Bacchus were driven We gladly welcomed once more Miss Fanny Davies who was the pianist of the evening Her reception was of the most flattering kind i and rarely have we heard Miss Fanny Davies in better form She played delightful pianoforte concerto in A minor op 16 with the orchestra with fire and passion and with that mastery of technique for which she is famed The audience were delighted with her performance and at the close of the 'concerto Miss Davies was the recipient of quite an ovation and was twice recalled The orchestra played the accompaniments magnificently For her second solo Mina Fanny Davies chose Impromptu in a veritable song without words and a concert study by Somervell The one was treated in the most delicate manner possible and the other afforded Miss Davies scope for grand bravura playing

advantage and she did not appear to Us to be in her beet voice The song by Handel was prettily-sung but the Lieders lacked pacsion and warmth Dr Winn accompanied the latter on the pianoforte alleged

husband on tho head and neck and was told not to do so or she would kill him The man lay apparently asleep until eleven when a neighbour got a candle and examined him declaring him to be Mr I Dickson surgeon deposed that i result of a post-mortem examination he found an effusion of blood on the brain which bad caused death It was 1 tho res nit of direct violence and could not have been caused The

garland of parsley or watercress i i i i tji i i is suitable for everything from a fish until the salad is hing is pi Whether in circles half-circles crescents triangles or diamonds the lemon is always refreshing A bit of lemon arranged alternately with a tiny mound of chopped bteeta separated by a green sprig is attractive for fish A change has come at least two brides of aristrocatic birth have set the fashion by introducing touches of colour into the orthodox white wedding robe When Miss Chetwynd married the Earl of Uxbridge tho other day her brocade tram had a design of lilies the foliage of the same being slightly touched with emerald green The bride's ornaments were emeralds and diamonds The second example was that previously set by Miss HitzGeoive grand-daughter of the Duke of Cambridge By the wavt tne first part of the above sentence sounds like an Irishism However let it stand The dress-bodice was studded with turquoises giving a distinct colour note Many young women will be glad to follow the examples quoted for a pure white wedding dress is not universally becoming and naturally anxious to look her best on the occasion the adhering to tradition frequently appears at a disadvantage Tnus it is that not a few judicious young women choose to be married in their travelling dress to be which as regards colour they can regulate according to fancy It is a happy fact that the turban has blundered somehow into great patronage with women who are admittedly getting beyond their prime and at scarce a reception or entertainment have the mothers failed to appear in commanding headpieces of velvet and lace feathers ribbons and even the most delicate flowers Crinolines is their foundation andthev are erected individually to suit each one the face it crowns Lovely turbans are made from old family laces with sprays of heather or tufts of violets to enliven tue whole The toques are certainly one of the chief features this season but we have some lovely modified 1830 hats with double strawbrims pink lining black white lining gray and so forth Large Leghorn picture hats bend under their weight of feathers and flowers tempered with the sombre hues of velvet bows or the snowy whiteness of tulle Lavender-blue straws are crowned with periwinkles or hyacinths sometimes the brims are covered with poppy petals on the crowns with a cluster of green or black velvet oats a trimming so light and gracoful that it would make any hat charming The edges of all straw shapes are very thick or slightly turned down The colourings are endless in variety mixed and shot effects being introduced Cabbage roses look well in deep full blue straws or in pale green ones Some green straws bristle with lilies of the valley whilst others indulge in sprays of mauve lilac with a spray of white on one side Gardenias too are flowers of' the hour but the daintiest was crowned with pole blue forget-me-nots Here are a few general hints on the subject of plain work which may be of use to those who have to teach others if not to themselves Always adapt your needle and cotton to each other and also to the quality of the stuff you are going to work with Use a needle with an eye sufficiently large to carry your thread easily It is one of the favourite mistakes of bad workers to do tho reverse of this last-named rule The consequence is that the thread forms a lump at the eye and thus does not facilitate sewing Never bite your cotton but cut it with the scissors Always use your cotton at the end which comes from the reel The best way to make sure of this is to thread the needle before you cut the cotton off Always in working help your needle in with your thumb Never work with a bent needle you cannot sew well with it Do not stoop as you work and do not sit in a cramped-up position You should hardly need to bend your head at all A costumier who makes blouses for women according to his own designs and the greater number of them in plaids of shades of dull tones or in solid dull colours has the blouse with the familiar tiny box plaits down the front but has it made to turnback in two small lapels at the neck leaving a pointed opening where a chemisette of pique or some similar material is worn The belts of the future are to be of the same colour as the costume and suede will be the favourite material for them The old and jewelled variety are now being sold off very cheaply which is of course their sentence of extinction The line of coloured metal at the waist was indeed not always becoming frequently quite the reverse The slender and graceful only can afford to compel attention to this portion of their anatomy Yet a great many women whose eood points do not lie in this direction lose no opportunity of so doing The turquoise is still the pet precious stone and appears in the long neck chains in varied shapes mixed with pearls and amethysts with which they are connected by fine gold links The tone of the turquoise is also still delighted in as an accessory colour With fawn it is peculiarly happy The wallflower and the nasturtium are to have all their own way in the coming colours of the season so we shall be revelling in tawny browns reds and other wonderful colourings which are not unbecoming to brunes and moreover the most fashionable new scent of the moment is wallflower It i3 difficult to realise how exquisite is the perfume till you have smelt it It is soft rragrant and lasting The tones of brown will be mingled with greens as well as orange and are certainly not unbecoming though they need a good deal of care in their arrangement and 'in adapting them to any other colour that may be intended to lie worn with them They are quite admirable with furs but whether we like them or
