Naval Assistant Secretary.

WASHINGTON, Feb. An the senate
to-day the prayer was offered by the Rev.
T. De Witt Talmage of Brooklyn, n. Y.
The chair laid before the senate a letter
from the secretary of the treasury in reply
to recent resolution of the senate relating
to the conscience fund. The conscience
fund, the secretary says. had its origin in
the popular belief that the donations of
money received from persons unknown
were because of money wrongfully withheld
from the government. The first item to
the credit of the fund was made in 1872,
and the fund now amounts to $500, TAT.
Among the memorials presented and ap-
propriately referred was one by Mr.. Sewell,
consisting of a concurrent resolution of the
legislature of New Jersey, protesting against
the granting by congress of any right to
build bridge from the shores of New Jer-
sey to those of Staten Island. n. Y, and
asserting the doctrine of states rights in
denial of the power of congress to grant
such Authority. Several petitions were
presented from organizations Of Knights of
Labor, urging congress to open I'D 10 settle
ment the territory of Oklahoma.
Mr.. Cameron called up the bill provid;no
for the appointment OF an assistant secretary
of the navy. An amendment suggested by
the navy committee REFUSES that the assis-
tant shall come from civil life.
Mr.. Plumb hoped some explanation would
be given of the need of such an officer and
of the need of such haste in taking up the
bill at this time, it having but recently been
reported.
MR.. EoAR SUGGESTED
the inquiry whether it was wise for congress
TO tie the hands of the president in requiring
that tho proposed new officers should be taken
from civil life. -
Mr.. Cameron said the bill had sen origin
ally introduced in compliance WIFE the wish
OF the secretary of the navy. and the senate
committee had thought it best to have the
appointment made from civil life, so as to
avoid jealousies among naval officers

there should be greater infusion into the
navy department of the business capacity
characteristic of active and successful bust

Short under petticoats, daintily and eIab-

just now and some of them are marvels in
the way of embroidery and Lace and ribbon
trimmings. The more useful, if not love-
Hest ones. are made Of very fine flannel in
soft. pale shades of pink. blue and creamy
white. The seams are all felled and
feather stitched with silk of some contrast
ing color, and the hem and the band. which
is of narrow ribbon or silk braid, with long
ties, ara similarly finished. Then there is
at least one lace rutie added to the foot,
and some times ruff1es upon ruffies in over
lapping ruches. Wooden lace may be used
or the fine Medicis and torchOn varieties, or
il a single band of lace Is used it is exceed
ceedingly pretty crOcheted or knitted of the
very finest split zephyr the color of the
flannel. But whatever kind of lace Is used
it Is run in the most open meshes, with fine
ribbons, matching in color the silk used In
the feather stlchings. Then there are fine
cashmere skirts. with satin facings and fin
ishings, and silk thread embroideries IN
bands or in separate flower clusters placed
near the foot OF the front and side breadths.
A particularly elaborate and elegant little
petticOat of pale cameo pink cashmere. with

white satin six inches deep. A narrow
double rufhe Of lace falls from under the
border, and above it on the front and side
breadths clusters Of roses are embroidered
of white silk, mixed with the finest of seed
pearls. The most fashionable skirts. how
ever, are OF fine white surah silk, Or
namented with groups of tucks and innum-
cradle frills of yalenciennes lace OF fine EN-
broiderleS OF silk alone or mixed with tin
sci. The embroideries are sometimes in
pale color, and delicately-tinted ribbons
may be run through the lace fiounees or
frills, but the skirts par excellence are those
all in white, and are SO extremely delicate
and dainty that only those Of unlimited
wealth can afford to wear them ordinarily.
