They Attract Attention by Wearing Their Brothers' Old Derby Hats. Not content with adopting many ortloles of masculine wearing apparel, tho young ladles of Brooklyn havo now seized upon their brothers' old derby hats as something new to wear. Passing along Fulton street, Brook lyn's most popular business thoroughfare, a Would reporter has noticed hnndrods of the gontler sex upon whom this mania has seized. Except for a narrow band of dark ribbon, freo from all trimming whatever. Occasion ally a fow may bo seen with feathers neatly arranged on tho side. In conjunction with theso hats the stylo of coot wor-1 is somowhat similar to tho Newmarkets - ropular last year. Tho noat appearance that the girls present in this rapidly becoming popular streot cos. tumo is pleasing to tho eye. After the mon strous era of tho sky-scraping stylo of bon nets, it is a decided relief. If tho girls can only bo indncod to wear their derbys to tho theatres and matincoB it would provo a great blessing. tmm CONSCIENCE BOTHERED THE MAYOR. Inspector Steers Tells Ilovr Ho Wan Onea Fined Fire Days' Pay. Inspector Steers tolls, in a very interesting way, a story of how ho was fined five days' pay during his captaincy. Inspector Will iams refers to the eighteon or twenty charges preferred against him from tlmo to timo as "honorable mentions." It was Saturday night and Capt. Steers, as he thon was, after seeing that all was correct in his precinct, re tired long after midnight. Sheridan Shook was in tho theatrical line, and in order that the public might ho surprised be sent a man to bill" tho town for a now play called ' Conscience." Guttor snipes wero used liberally, and when Capt. Steers awoke on Sunday morning tho gutterways in his pre cinct wore covorod with black-lottered " Con Bcienco" on a white sheet of paper. At 3 a. m., Billy Wickbam, then John Kelly's Mayor, was driving home in a cab from the Manhattan Club, and everywhere ho looked, he was confronted by " Con. science," staring at him from fences, and blinking even from tho street gutters. It worried and then vexed tho Lexington avenue brown.stono.frqnt Mayor,who, Steors thinks, felt that the .terrible accusing word was construed as personal to the Mayor for doing the club act on Sunday morning. Wickham complained to Supt. Walling, charges were preferred against Steers, ana, notwithstanding the fact that tho samo evil existod in a number of precincts, Steers alone was fined five days' pay. " So much went into the Pension Fund, whero it would do good," says tho now In spector 8teers, " but o friend Shook sent his chock for $175, so I lost nothing, and the retired policemen were benefited also." Wickham'B conscience wos eased. Shook secured a splendid advertisement for his new play, and altogether everybody was happy except Steers, whose record was dotted for something that he could not possibly have averted had he walked the streets of his pre cinct all night. SOME CHRISTMAS NOVELTIES, Large fans in the stiff coquo feathers aro mode to resemble tulips in different colors. A high lamp to stand on tho floor, is shaped like a helmet, and rests on a tripod of three battle-axes. A turkey's claw in brass clutches a glass inkstand that has an owl's head in oxidized silver as cover. For a smoking set, a brass tray holds three brass cuffs of different sizes, and a collar, in imitation of linen. A fan in pale-bluo gauze is a mass of loops of narrow, pale-blue satin ribbon. The stioks are of wood inlaid with silver. A silver lamp suspended from a standard, has a design in perforated holes and jewels, through which a candle shines. A low silver candlestick has an attached screen of copper. It is studded with jewels, through which the light shines. An oxidized silvor paper-cutter has a handle formed of two monkeys, one uphold ing another who holds tho blado. A novel holder for a whisk brush is half of an ornamental drum fasten od to a brass shield. A chain hangs it on tho wall. A small ornamental mirror is uphold by two oxidized silver kittens, while a third climbs up behind and looks over the top. A clock about a foot in diameter has a whool on the face. The figures aro between the spokes. The hands are fastened on the hub. A largo silver disk has a small clock in the centre ; above is an oxidized silver star, and on the edge of the disk, the crescent moon and face. Small snowshoes have satin bags stuffed with horsehair fastoned to them, in which to stick hairpins, and aro to bo hung beside a lady's dressing table. In silk purses, gray with steel beads is the newest style. A gold ring is fastened se. curely in the middle of the purse, and is in tended to bo hung on a chatelaine. m Tonne and all we wr ate Adamson's BOTA2TI0 Oouan Balsam, llert dnucgiau. . admit I havo very little to complain of," answered Fernand. Just as ho had finished speaking the first bottlo of champagne was opened. The foam sparkled in tho crystal cups. Tho young men, wholly intent on enjoyment, scarce lent an ear to tho expiring din and noiso of Paris when tho great city is about to sink into slumber. But just at this moment one of tho waiters entered and handed Fernand a dainty little card. "A visit at this hour, and in a pnbllo cafe"," exclaimed the jolly host, refusing to accept tho card with an air of lofty disdain. "Tell the gentleman he may present himself at my rooms on Louis-le.Grand street to-morrow. If I be at home I shall be very happy to ro ceivo him." "But, sir," one of the guests aptly re marked, "you have not evon taken the trouble to look at the name of the visitor who sends in bis card." "Why, that's so," replied Fernand. ' 'Let us see who is this fellow who chooses such queer visiting hours." Hating pompously adjusted his eyeglass, ho held up tho card aud tried to docipher the name. He had to give it up. " There is some name scrawled on it," ho roraorked, in a puzzled way, " but for tho life of me, I can't make it out. Perhaps some of you may suoceed in deciphering it," he continuod, handing it in turn to each of his friends seated around the table. The six of them struggled with it in turn and finally gave it up in despair. The circumstance alone was enough to excite the curiosity of a less inquiring mind than Fernand's. A moment before he was about to dismiss the stranger unceremoni ously; now he had the keenest desire to see him, " Tell the gentleman to come in," he said, addressing a waiter. In a moment the seven gay youths saw ap- Iiroach a young man, hat in band, rather be ow medium height, who saluted all present with a graceful bow and in a pleasant tone- of SPORTS '"INDOORS AM TOT an .

" Sir," said Fernand, addrossing him, " you havo been considerato enough to send in you card, and I should therefore know vour name, but truth to tell I have not boen ablo to read it not oven to spell it."

IFroma JNVw 1'orl Lttitr, In opera a first night Is different, at least In one respect. At the theatre there Is a general unnu Im II y among the men In tbe lobbies. They like tbe performance or they don't, and all aro agreed. But at the Metropolitan Opera-Housc the lobbies are Oiled with excited and often angry dlnpuunla. The mercurial musician and tho tiogmailn critics creatures of different schools of musical composition or cxeontlou fall upon one an other tooth und nail, flgurativtly speiking, and make It a point to disagree flatly with ono an other. Strange, passing stranvo it la. that tho gentlest themes, music and religion, excite the quickest and bitterest quarrel. Every Brat night at tbe opera-house Is a battle ground for tho dev otees of tho Italian tctiool on one side and the German on the other, for tho Wagncrltea ot the old school, for the men who write tno librettos for this house and the men who do not. Then again these musical folks hum snatches of wnat they have heard, give burlesque Imitations of the manners of the people of tho smite and In one way or another turn the lobbies into a mild beer garden. And within the house tho box-hold-era who pay tt.ouo a year, tn lost of Interest and outlay of principal, for the privilege ot posing be fore ono another, and who care lets for lmislo than a cat does about religion, are flitting about tho upper halls In rich opera cloaks or bare necks, and dangling here and there at the box doors In claw hammer coata, exchanging vlslla, boubons and small talk.

A frequent sight In our streets is that of some woman, herself modestly attired, attracting atten tion by means of an attendant. Yesterday I saw. In Fifth avenue, a uuracmald doing this duty. Sho was rolling the conventional baby-carriage along, as she talk, d with a plsln'y dressed mother, who walked at her side. The servant's dress was a wonder, but hardly a thin i of beauty. It was all of flaming red. Not on'y tne underdress and sacquoweie of thla color, but the hat an i cloak al.o. The cloak was a peculiar one in style. It was long enough to reacn about to tne knees lit front; thence It was cut away In a grauual curve until It touched the ground benlnd. It was made of a rich matoilal, tint en tirely devoid of trimming or embclll-hinent of any km i. At a Utile disuuco It appeared like a reproduction of tho looio cloak which Mcpilsto phcles wears wnen he a pears on the stuie in grand opera. This effect wai heightened by war ing the strange garment halt opened to tho breeze so lhat It swung about and flapped suggest I tely. Hut tho cloak was not tbe climax of tin- coilume. lhat was nut reached until the hat had been put on. It was, as I said, of the shadn ot flaming red that made up the rest of the dress, and had at tached to It an Immense ribbon, at least ten inches wide, and double. It wai plu tod into a ruche --- i "AUi I rOSSESS IS TOURS, AND MTSEI.F IN CLUDED, IT TOO THINK ME WOBTIIY."

He emptied his glass with apparent zest, bound gracefully and retired, saying, as ho withdrew, to Fernnud : " Monsieur du ltoquefeuil, I expect to have tbe honor of calling on you to-morrow." With that not very encouraging remark he disappeared. So soon as he had gone the young men laughed heartily ; but the supper came to an end, and at about 3 o'clock in tho morning all retired to their homes. At noon the following day, just as Fernand was about to rise, a sen ant entered his room and handed him threo letters and a ci-rd. If-FANTILE SKIN DISEASES.
