Paris, November 24.-"Dance gowns"
claim especial notice at the shops Just
now. They are fluffy in effect, and ex-
ceedingly girlish-looking, for their sim
plicity is one of their chiefest charms.
Chiffon, mousseline de sole, tulle, net
point d'esprit and gauze are all used in
great quantities over transparencies of
silk or satin.
To insure "bouffee'' effect the skirts
are made double and even triple over
the transparencies, and narrow ruches
or bands of satin ribbon trim them
profusely.
PINK HOLDS SWAY.
Pink is the color that holds sway
for evening gowns. Not SO much the
paler shades, but the intense coral and
watermelon shades are most in vogue.
Another bright pink dance gown was
made of gauze over pink satin trans
parency. The skirt was a full double
skirt, trimmed around the bottom with
four bands Of pink satin ribbon.
The corsage of pink satin was square
necked, and was covered full with the
gauze. Around the top it was trimmed
with three rows of pink satin ribbon.
A gown that was ordered by young
woman still in her teens was entirely in
white. 1t was OF mousseline de sole,
over transparency Of white taffeta.
A CORSAGE.
The decollete corsage had close-fit-
ting lining, and over that blouse of
the silk covered full with the sun-plait-
ed mousseline Ge sole. The straps over
the shoulders were formed of embroid-
cred mousseline de sole studded with
seed pearls. They followed the line of
the armhole and were finished with
frills of the sun-plaited mousseline de
sole.
A gown that was charming by gas
light was Of white gauze over a lettuce
green taffeta transparency.
PINK AND GREEN.
A lovely dress was of white tulle over
wintergreen taffeta. The skirt was
plated with yoke of pale pink en-
brOidery. The waist was very full and
crossed by bands of pale green satin
| ribbon edged with mock gems. The
| shoulders were mere puffs.

There have been a great many

been absolutely practical
The scheme now proposed for harbor
defense is not only new, but brilliant.
West Point, from it's point of vantage,
commands a magnificent view of the
harbOr, and could be made absolute
master Of the situation by means Of
powerful glasses. With the new
Romer Shoals gun mounted upon its
heights it could send it's fire down into
the waters of the Hudson and command
all the points as far south in the har-
bor as it would be necessary to hold.
The gun which would be used is the
new 16-inch gun about to be mounted
at Romer Shoals New York harbor.
This gun has range of over sixteen

miles, and easily carries this distance
even on a level. If it were elevated it
could carry further, as it would have
much less gravitation to overcome at
the beginning of its flight.
The only person in the United
States who could compute the distances
with absolute certainty is said to be
Capt. ingalls,, of the First Regiment of
Artillery, who is one Of the country S
most brilliant artillerists, and whose
works are text books at West Point
When the famous "Jubilee"-The Eng
lish shot which holds the English rec
ord-was tested, estimates of it's range
were invited from representatives of all
the recognized armies in the world.
They were asked to send in their an
swers in sealed envelopes. The data
given were the calibre and weight Of

miles short of reaching our Romer
Shoals gum The Krupp has 24-centl-
metre breech-loading rifle. The length
Of the gun was 251a feet over all, and
the shot weighed 474 pounds. The firing
charge of powder weighed 1854
pounds. and the initial velocity of the
projectile was 2,100 feet per second
The great range was obtained by an
angle CT firing at A degrees.
Now, II Capt. Ingalls, WILL with the
data furnished by the new Romer
Shoals gun, compute the distance which
it would carry, we would know exactly
whether the Armstrong plan is practi-
cal, and the War Department could de-
eide upon the feasibility of instruchng

New York harbor.

The test was to be made and the
communications were not to be opened
until after the shot was fired. Capt.
Ingalls, worked out the problem with
the other representatives and sent in
his answer under cover
The Jubilee" shot was fired from a
9.2-inch WOolwich gun, and it reached a
distance from the firing point OF twelve
miles. At one time in it's flight the
shot was over three miles high. When
the range had been accurately meas
ured the British experts opened the

foreign communications, among which
was the letter from Capt. Ingalls,. Some
of the calculations placed the shot fully
two miles from the distance which 1t
obtained, but Capt Ingalls, plotted it
within $50 yards in the rear of the
stopping point. He was only $50 yards
out of the way, and consequently he
ranked first among the worlds calcu-
lators OF the carrying power of big
guns. This asbonished the British ar
tillerists, and they decided that the
Captain had practically located the Shot
in the very hole where 1t fell. In r.
mile calculation, $50 yards is so little
that it is practically nothing.

are powerful enough to shoot over sky
