What | wish to infer V this preamble is,
that just now it seems that everything is in.
There is show window that is arranged
like a picture. The background is formed
of two beautiful green plush curtains,
heavily ornamented with magnificent point
applique. These are open, slightly showing

covered with green Grape, punched up in
little hllocks all over it, Set about in this
restful spot are great vases full of white and
purple lilacs, while punches of vioets and
crocuses and primroses cuddle down among
the puffs of green as if that was all new
sort of garden. Then here and there, not
too many, but just enough for each to stand
up and be admired by itself, are new spring
hats.
One is n round hat with a low, round

tian print drawn over the frame smoothly.
Around the brim is a roll of moss green

is real. There Is a tiny continuance made

attached to the inner side of this is a tiny

edge is a fringe of disks of cut jet In the
back there is double bow of gold faced

stream down the back.
There is cottage bonnet, which would
come quite close to the face and cover the

The lilacs are as perfect though freshly

flowers for spring. They carry with them

and the sleeves were gigot and made Of

of the skirt, or sprung fiounce, was made
very stiff and full.
There is another for half mourning for a
young lady and intended for a very full

around this is double ruffle of Italian

the entire gown is made, cut on the bias,
which brings the crinkles straight, and this
fold is set in the middle of the double ruffle.

polka dots, slightly shaded with brown.
Around the bottom was "A gathered hounce
of maize silk muslin, and at the hips, meet
ing the pointed waist line, was pulled
pannier drapery, which gathered up in the
back and fell like a scarf to the foot of the
skirt, which was dancing length. The
waist was pointed front and back. There
was "A roll of silk muslin at the neck over II
fall of lace, and the sleeves were plain pufs
of the muslin finished with lace. The gloves
were of the exact shade Of the dress
Another modiste had several noticeable
gowns for young ladies for afternoon and
evening, but as gowns now run principally
to corsages | will just mention the latter.
One was a mordore brown henriette cloth,
with plain gathered waist, open in the
back. There was a tlchu of maize colored
taffeta edged by double frill of white
lace There was brown MORE sash folded
once in front and tied in a bowknot, with
long ends in the lack. The collar WAS Of
draped taffeta. The sleeves were pulled
to a fore arm piece, all of the same goods.
The fichu went across the shoulders and
was loose from the waist in the back for
the head to pass through. 1t made very
effective gown.
Another for evening was of pale blue
yelling, with an infant waist shirred across
the bust There We're shoulder knots over
the pulled sleeves, which ended in bretelle
straps which reached to the waist front and
back. A . inch grosgrain ribbon went
around the waists twice and tied at The
left side with long loops and ends. Sash s
of ribbon, wide and narrow, are in full
vogue and will be seen on all light dresses.
/ The gauze ribbons are particularly graceful
for this requirement. Very wide sashes
also are popular, and all are tied in "A big
bow, or deep loops, in the back generally,
though some like them best tied on the side.
There was another reception or house
dress worthy of mention. 1t was cheney
silk, in one of those deliciously vague and
misty patterns where the edges seem to
melt into the body of the silk without di-
viding lines. This was mauve and cream.
The skirt was cut out in vandykes, with a
purple velvet ruffie beneath. The sleeves
were pulled to the elbow. There was a
draped belt Of velvet, with large gold
buckle. The waist was gathered very full
and all the front gathers brought forward
to point just above the buckle A velvet
collar and black lace fall in jabOt fill
completed it. The design was altogether
lovely, and it will doubtless be copied often
and developed in other materials. | notice
that fully half the new gowns have the
gathered or French waist, and also that
they are cut quite long on the shoulders.
They look trim and make the waist appear
small. MATE LEROY.

The third was a walking costume for
widow, and young one too. Like the 9th.
ers, the entire gown was of courtauld Grape.
Around the skirt were placed half inch
folds Of courtauld Grape cut bias, which
throws a different shade upon it, There
were 3 in the first cluster, II In the second,
0 in the third, and so on clear to the waist,
which was round and had gigot sleeves,
with folds of the Grape at the wrists. Over
this was worn military cape of courtauld
with clusters of folds reaching from the
bottom to the shoulders, where there was a
deep incroyabe collar with revers. This
gown was walking length. The bonnet was
close saucer shape, with short brussels

border of crap2. The Grape veil reached to
the bottom otthe dress in the back There
was the roleau of white Grape under the

perfectly plain, buttoning on the left side
The coat, which matches it, is draped across
the front and fastens under silver star
shaped clasp. The incroyable revers and
rundown collar have rows of the soutache.
The choker and cuffs are made of wide mo-
hair basket braid There Is black velvet
hat, with silver ornaments and pink tips
The other is a wrap or surtout of gray
peau de cygne CLOTH faced up with gray
imitation of krmmer, which is light while
appearing heavy. The buttons are nearly
3 inches in Gameter, and there is a ripple
Worth collar. There are two buttons in
the back, at the waist line. The mite of a
bonnet Is made of the same material, with
a blue knot of velvet and gray osprey aigret.
This was designed, l was told, for young
bride for her travelling wrap. 1t is very
stylish anyway.

parties. | will mention two of them. One
was a princess of apple blossom taffeta
open on the right side over tulle skirt OF
apple green. All around the skirt and up
the front edge of the opening was band
of brocaded gauze ribbon, showing the pink
and green. There were no sleeves, but in
their place there were jockeys of green

OUENCES INVOLVED.

The Trial of Capt. Dreyfus Proceeding
In Paris, With the Use OF Letter
stolen From the German Embassy
What the Note said.
New YORK, Dec. special dispatch
from Paris to the Sun says: The court
marshal of Captain Dreyfus for high
treason has assumed proportions of a
great political event. The trial involves
not only the fate of a portion of the cab
inct. but also 'rious diplomatic conse-
queues. The trial is secret on account
of the German governments protest
against the use of evidence which was
ste len from the desk of the German en-
bassy. the prosecution hopes to conceal
the fact whether his evidence was pre-
sented to the court or not.
This evidence consists of a single sheet
of note paper, unsigned and undated.
Here it is:
"Sir: According to our agreement, !
send you / II a Design of the new artillery
brake recently experimental with at
Bourges; (2) the effectiveness OF the
Madagascar expedition corps; (3) the
number of troops and full description
now guarding the eastern frontier; (4)
the manual for artillery practice just
issued in limited number of proofs"
The prosecution asserts there is no
doubt that this note is in Dreyius' hand
writing. This crisis in the political situ-
alton is accentuated by the election OF a
radical, NJ. Brsson. to the presidency OF
he chamber. The conviction has become
general that series u dramatic events
in Frcuch political affairs is close at
