Probably the most popular material for
house dresses is crepon. II mas every
quality which Is desirable in goods for
indoor wear. being soft and clinslng' ana
cool, without being so thin as 10 necessi-
tate n silk lining. That IS the greatest
objection to organdss and other light
materials like dotted null. In many cases
the Innings are more expensive than the
original materials But it is not so with
crepOn. This requires lining just Ike any
other goods, but it need not be especially
elegant or expensive.
a very pretty house dress is made OF
embroidered crepon, and it Is shown In
the above cut. The u~der dress Is made OF
the crepon and appears 10 be little else
than a round waist and skirt. The skirt
has puff a a point just below the knee
and another at the head Of the ilounce at
the bottom. At the waist IS a belt Of SUI
rah silk. An over Jacket Of surah is caught
in at the waist under the belt and hangs
from there I'm a long basque which is
edged at the bottom with wide lace. The
mutton leg sleeves have capelets which
terminate in points in front.
Another gown which would be aprro-
pirate for evening WAS made Of pale vel
low crenon. shirred twice with heading
at the neck. From there it hangs loose
to the bottom but Is confined at the waist
with a yellow sash. This simple gown IS
especially fetching when worn 10y pi-

greatest originality may be given full
swing without danger Of being consnicu-
Gus or seeming eccentric. The American
girl IL very independent about her cos
tunes. but there is limit beyond which
even her temerity WIFI not carry her, when
it comes TO street gowns.

WHY WILL DEMOCRATS LOAD THE
PARTY WITH VICIOUS MEASURES?

We are sorry 10 see the actions of the
Democratic party in the House Of Repre-
sentatives IN keeping the party tied to
measures that aim at trying to put life
into the Interstate Commerce law. That
law is based upon a total perversion and
disregard Of the true principles which
III at the bottom of successful transport
tation. profitable to both the public and
the carrier. 1t is an attempt to make
men conduct their private business, not
as the exigencies Of that business may
demand, but as legislators (who are very
Ignorant on all questions except the best
method for distributing patronage to
secure their own reelection, and par
ticularly Of the laws governing trans
portation) may direct.
When a distinguished Republican once
said that he believed the Democratic
party was in partnership with bad luck
he used hyperbolical language, but its
leading men certainly do develop the most
remarkable passion for whatever will
produce calamity. They insist on keeping
the party tied to this Interstate Com
merce law. which is nothing but a clog
and embargo on free commerce between
all parts Of the country; they do all
they can to secure the enactment Of what
they call the anti-option bill, which IS
nothing but a measure 10 embarrass COM
merce and business: and what could
tend more radically 10 universal bank
ruptcy and ruin than the proposition
which the great majority OF them per-
sistently cling 10. that we shall degrade
our currency and change suddenly to a
single standard. and that silver. in which
the standard Of the future is to be ap-
Piled 20 all past transactions. shall be

the following in a recent article In that
journal. II said:

TIRE NEW YORK ANARCHISTS.

Thirteen years ago a gentleman in
Russia was quietly going along attending
to his own business when an assassin
threw dynamite bomb at his feet. which
burst and mangled him horribly. This
gentleman happened TO be Alexander, the
Car of Russia. and all Anarchists think
the assassination was one OF the most
glorious deeds in history. on the anniver-
sary Of the day a few days back the
New York city Anarchists held meeting
to celebrate the event The more or less
famous or Infamous Johann Most made a
speech at the meeting. from which we
take the following. He said:
1T is thirteen years since the execution

This was brought about by a resolution
pledging the members Of the commit
tee 10 secrecy. and as the result none Of
the members would speak further than
10 say that absolutely nothing had been
accomplished, and no agreement reached
as TO when the bill should be reported.
The Democratic members are accusing
their Republican colleagues Of consuming
needless time, and characterize their con-
duct by that more expressive word "fli-
clustering" This the minority deny, and
say that all they ask is time to con-
slider the bill. In return they accuse the
majority OF attempting to railroad the
bill through the committee.
