"A woman In winter CARD.
From the New York Herald.
The young woman utterly correct in winter
garb is q strikingly picturesque object these
days. From crown to toe she wears only what
is chic and what at first sight carries the evil
dence of fashions latest whim Beginning
with her hat, it is a patent leather sailor,
trimmed with plain band Of ribbon, and re-
fleets in its glistening crown the upper win
dows OF the houses she passes. She wears it
just back Of the waved fringe on her brow and
above the knot Of softly role hair. or course
she wears cape OF Russian sable, with a
Medicis collar, into which she will sink her
chin whenever the weather is cold, but which
during these bright, brisk days falls open,
showing cream silk 'kerchief fastened high ut
the mock with little silver pins. Her hands are
thrust in good sized muff not far enough to
hide the thick, soft, dogskin gloves and the
edges of white cuffs held together by silver
links as thick as little ropes. As much Of her
gown as shows below her cape is Scotch tweed,
blanket like in Its thickness, but soft and
woolly. 1t falls in untrimmed slightly draped
folds and as she steps out sans dress supporter,
sans steels, sans hustle, it clings to her limbs
and its edges ripple and sway about her feet in
. delightful way. Her boots have patent
leather vamps, but tan CATERS leave only
little Of their polish visible. If it is gray day
with suggestion Of coming rain in the air she
has only one hand thrust in her muff and in
the other carries horizontally q slender, tightly
rolled, gold-headed umbrella. Do you see her
in your minds eye, this bright-eyed, family
flushed young woman, making her light, inde-
pendent way along with u comfortable con-
seriousness that she is the very pink Of fashion?
And do you think a prettier specimen Of
radiant girlhood could be found among the
much-talked-of but fst-chested Englishwomen
or the over-dressed, tightly-laced Parisiennes?

The Dukes Eye Glass.

From the San Francisco Argonsut.
The Grand Duke Constantine, the most tai
ented and clever member of the imperial fam.
lily OF Romanoff, was wont to discomfort prosy
bores who were presented to him for the first
time His single eye glass hung from his neck
by an elastic cord and soon as ever his inter-
locutor had embarked on some long
speech he would quietly give the elastic an i'm
perceptible witch, which had the effect of
sending the eye glass rebounding up to his eye,
where it remained fixed, without any apparent
effort or action on his part. He would then
gaze fixedly through the eye glass at the un-
fortunate speaker just as though nothing had
happened. The effect of this little maneuver
was generally to discomfort completely the new
presentee, whose utterances were cut short. not
only by the mannor in which the monocle APP
peared to fly up to the grand dukes eye Of its
own accord but also by the fact that his
imperial highness seemed totally unmoved
thereby,

Field Girls.

From the New York World.
II you haven't met the athletic young lady
you haven't met the coming woman She has
arrayed herself In pair of low, stout shoes,
russet-leather leggings, brown check flannel
dress, with REFER jacket, Scotch cap, leather
belt and castor gloves, and she goes up the
avenue, through the park, and down again,
with pocket mirror no larger than your watch,
In which she studies her cheeks and lips and
eyes until the color suits her. These field girls
as they are called, walk for the party and sleep
for it before they dress for it, The weather has
nothing to do with the program. 1t is enough
that she has decided to accept the cards. If
the time is limited the saddle is mounted and
society's fair leader gallops through the bark
or round the park in a hunting costume until
rosy and weary. Then she goes home, goes to
bed aud goes to sleep the moment her head
touches the pillow. The ladies who belong to
the country clubs and who hunt on foot wear
short costumes of gray homespun, trimmed
with green. or an English cheviot, with a derby
and stuffed squirrel for muff. What are
known as cross-country stroils are taken be-
tween 10 and 2 and stretches of dozen miles
made, not often, but still they are made.

Judge Rradley,s uIpass

The illness OF Judge Andrew C. Bradley,
Ehich has caused so much apprehension among
ais friends, apparently eliminated on Friday
night in the breaking of an obscure abscess,
which discharged through the bowels. On
Saturday and Sunday be was much relieved,
and in the opinion of his physician much
better. This morning his condition and symp-
toms are not altogether satisfactory, but it is
hoped that the crisis has passed and that he
stll nov begin to improve.

Of the conference tomorrow morning. Capt
Mensing explained that the report should have
been ready but for the failure Of the printer,
and he expressed great surprise that that in
dividual should have been dIrelict.
AN INVITATION FROM THE PRESIDENT.
Secretary Cottman read letter from the
Department of State, signed by Mr.. Walker
Blaine, informing him that the President would
be pleased to receive the members of the con-
ference at IL O'Clock on New Year day in uni
form.
Mr.. Hall suggested that it would be better to
postpone any resolution as to whether or not
the delegates go in body until it was certain
Just how many members would be present in
the city.
THE DELEGATE PROM SIAM OBJECTS
Mr.. Goodrich, as chairman Of the collocation
committee, whose final report was submitted
this morning, asked for an adop-
ton, and then Mr.. vereny, delegate
from siam, arose with an objection.
de said ne had the greatest respect for each
member OF the committee, but that he wanted
to protest against the adoption OF the report in
Its present. condition. He was aware of
OF the vast importance of the matter
and he felt the weight Of his
responsibility. He was sure that he wouId
bring down upon himself the are Of both ends
OF the table England and America j; there was
nothing easier than to make sharp speeches
and even bitter speeches, but he
felt impelled to stand forth alone. He then pro-
ceeded to call the attention of the Conference
to certain portions of the report which he felt
were dangerously loose in their verbiage. and
he asked II IT. were not worth while for the COM
mittee to give few hours more 10 . oonsidera-

Mr.. Goodrich ventured to ask the prolonea-
ton Of the morning session for few minutes.
He was sorry that the ''learned delegate from
Siam" had anticipated any sharp speeches, for
there was no occasion for such, and such an an.
ticipation deserved resentment The colloca-
ton committee had labored hard over the
very points on which Mr. verney had
touched and 1t was thought that their report
was as complete a. possible. The conference

Tracy has decided that he has authority
under the law to proceed with the con
struction Of the great coast-defense yes
sci. There will be no Reimbursement
and the only question yet to be decided
is, which Of the three bids submitted shall
be accepted. Cramps bid was the lowest
but the Iron Works Of California, whose
bid was but $4,000 above him, are likely
to secure the work, in consideration Of
the fact that they absolutely guaranteed
the success Of the ship for the amount Of
their bid, which was $1,628,00O. This
decision of the secretary will involve the
abandonment of the idea Of a marine tor
pedo boat.
