DECORATIVE NOTES.

The Latest Hints of the Proper Caper in
Fixings for the House.
According to the latest advises from head
quarters. coffee is to be much in favor during
the season to come, and is to be formidable
rival to tea. Among other indications which
point to the fact the exquisite Turkish ser
vices take prominent place, and they are in
euse for being. The material Is brass, but
brass inlaid after the wonderful fashion Of
the East and enriched with deep. warm color
The salver is round and on it stand a bowl
for sugar, a coffee-pOt Of most unique form,
and two small handleless china cups set
within holders of brass. As the Turk takes
no cream in his mocha, that is all the equip
ment contains; but even were we not quite
SO used to his fayorite beverage. the lovely
service would be sufficient temptatiCn to
drink. The inlaid brass is comparatively
new to this market, and SO truly splendid as
to be sure Of a permanent place. Besides the
coffee tete-a-tete sets separate pots can be
bought, as well as a number of smaller objects
which range in price from so cents to $50.
Flowers seem 10 have been given a promt-
nent place among the designs for this autumn
and they crop up in many forms. One of the
continuous wreath round the edge of each
plate, while the center is left quite plain.
They are wonderfully charming and attrac-
tive, and as each set contains a variety OF
blossoms, there is complete uniformity with
out sameness. The notion of combining the
decoration to the rims of the plates was much
exempted last year, and it IS pleasure to
see that designers cling to so good thing
Some purely conventional! designs NAV be ap-
prODriatA over the entire
familiar ones make good effect. but flowers
and such realistic designs are singularly dis
agreeable beneath bit of salad or even
Well-moulded ice. One does not like the idea
OF cutting into them or otherwise treating
their lovsliness with disrespect, so that con-
fining them to the rim allows Of their free
use, while at the same time strict proprety is
observed.
Some of the new carpets, on the other hand
are so managed as 10 be atrocities in the full
sense of the word, and in them the floral ma
mia is developed at its worst. For so long we
have been given good carpets and hon
est rugs, and there has been so much talk
about truly artistic design We had come to
hope absurdities were buried for good and all
but this season there has again been seen the
realistic flowers woven into Wilton of tbs
finest sort. Why it should be is difficult TO
guess, and we may safely feel encouraged to
hope that it will live but a short, short time
Nevertheless It is true in a number of forms.
and it needs to be recognized for what it is in
order to be quickly stamped out.

present. and all had the jolliest kind of
time. At the meeting held at headquarters
Just before the troopers marched up to the
hotel the thirteenth new man was enlisted
since camp. Six applications are now on file,
to be acted on tomorrow night. The meet
ing that night promises TO be an interesting
one. 1t will be decided when the troop shall
accept an invitation to visit one of the theaters.
When they go the boys will appear in full
dress uniform. The troop will be divided into
squads during the meeting and each squad
placed in command OF a sergeant. The COM
missioned officers will offer handsome prize
to the sergeant who at the end OF six months
has the best drilled squad and the squad
which shows the most improvement. Busi-
ness for the four meeting nights of the month
has been arranged as follows: One business,
one company drill, one pleasure, and one
mounted drill.
The National Rifles held their biennial cleo
ton OF officers Thursday night and all the old
officers were reelected. Capt. Oyster was
elected unanimously. The first fight of the
evening was made ON Lieut. Manson, but he
was reelected by a majority of one. This
settled the feeling and there was no fight on
the remainder. W. C. Keech was chosen first
lieutenant and adjutant and W. K. Ellis first
lieutenant and paymaster. The meeting was
one OF the largest the company ever held and
the feeling seemed to be strongly in favor of
joining the National Guard. 1t Is likely that
come active measures looking to this will be
lnaugurated in the near future. An amend
ment to the constitution was adopted creating
an active retired list. All members can go on
this list after ten years continuous service if
they so desire and still retain an active inter
est The amendment relieves them from the
regular drills. Drills will be resumed at once.

Work on the new National Guard armory,
on L street, between Fourth and Fifth streets
northwest, is being pushed as rapidly as pos
sible. Architect Sommerville expects to have
it ready for occupancy January l, but he may
give the boys surprise and turn it over be-
fore that time. 1t is now only two months
since the laying OF brick was started and the
roof has been placed in position for stating.
AS soon as the roof is finished work on the in
terror will be begun and no efforts spared to
make quick time.
The new building fronts on L street and
has two wings running north and south. The
center building will be six stories high, and
each of the wings four stories. The main
building has frontage of 122 feet on l. street
and depth of lat feet. The ground floor
will be devoted to headquarters offices and to
the use of the light battery, the cavalry troop,
the cycle company the quartermaster, COM
missary and ordnance stores. A lecture room
will also find place on this floor. The second
and third floors will be devoted to company
rooms of ample size, with locker room be-
sides for each company On the fourth floor
will be the rifle gallery, etc.
The gallery will be about fifty feet wide and
probably l25feet long. and will have much
greater target capacity than the present one.
The inner rooms in the armory will be
lighted by curtille and the outer rooms di-
rectly from the street and the alleys. The
several floors will be connected by a broad
and handsome staircase. The officers rooms
on the ground. floor will be connected with
the company rooms by electrical and other
contrivances, and in this respect it will be the
most convenient armory in the country. The
main entrance to the building is two stories
high and consists OF massive semi-circular
arch. The central portion above the main
entrance is ninety feet above the ground,
while the top of the aaG-staff is over 100 feet
above the sidewalk. One of the novel feat
ures about the new building is the steel bridge
which will connect it with Convention Hall,
where the drills will be held. The bridge

"Should wedding trips be abo lished?" is
the latest query agitating readers OF a London
newspaper. and it seems almost as Unanswer-
able as rs marriage a failure2r man with
five sisters-In-law, however. stands up for
the good old custom, and says re likes hav-

eye shut up with an old slipper. and If he
