the dainty confections being evolved in
PARIS out Of m uslin, or chiffon, and black
and white lace. Well, MAIDEN oiselIe has
one of the finest white musins made over

very narrow puff, and below this are ap-

The low.cut bodice has soft surpiicelike
folds, the applique being arranged so as 10

confection cannot be excelled in chic,
ana the short puffed sleeves are well cut
and not the least full.
Such frock suggests many delightful
possibilities-for example, use white in

A Real University for the People,

The attendance at the first course of Free
Lectures to the People, now about ending,
has been larger than ever before. At the
present rate it will exceed 100000 for the
season, or more than double the attendance
Of two years ago..
The brilliant success of this featurs of
u educational system seems to DO due
chiefly to the happy adaptation of the
subjects treated to the needs of the scores
of thousands who desire solid and helpful
information INC find 1t In these lecture
courses.
DR.. LEIPzIGER presides over a real Uni.
versity for the People. He has already
demonstrated the great success and value
of his latest innovation, namely, series OF
lectures on the same or cognate topics,
giving a wider view of phases of history,
science or art than could be given in a
single discourse.

The Question OF the Palisades.

DISTINGUISHED friends of the Palisades,
anxious that Natures wonderful decoration
of our noble river shall be protected against
the quarryman's dynamite, believe now that
nothing is to be hoped from Congress.
The idea that the Federal Government
should acquire by purchase the entire region
crowned by the Palisades and turn it into a
national military park, was attractive at
first, and it has been urged upon the atten.
ton Of Congress ever since the original
bill vas introduced by Mr.. FAIRCHILp,
two years ago this month. The Commits.
sioners appointed by the Governors OF
New York and New Jersey to promote
his plan declared in their last annual
report that "a continuation of the Com.
missions efforts will result In success at
an early day"
This confidence Is not shared by anybody
who knows the facts. There Is absolutely
no prospect that the United States Govern,
ment will appropriate three or four million
dollars, or even three or four hundred thou
sane dollars, to create a park on the Hud
son River for the benefit of New York
and the adjacent part of New Jersey. Nc
such reservation is needed for military pur
poses. Indeed, no more dangerous prece
dent in the way of Federal expenditure TO,
local benefit can be imagined.
AS a matter of fact, as was shown in TIL
SUN the other day by a well-informed cor
respondent, there has never been the slight
est hope that Congress would consider
favorably the project of the Commissioner
"If anything is to be done for the protec
tion of the Palisades" wrote the Chairman
OF the House Committee on Military Al

Mr.. Croker Back for Work.

The report that RICHARD CROKER will
resume the nominal, as we'll as the real,
leadership of one of the most wonderful
political organizations in the world, by be-
coming again the Chairman of its Finance
Committee, ought to crafty both the
friends and the foes of Tammany.
Tammany is about to begin, for good or
for evil, an entirely new chapter of expert
ment and effort. Those who hope for its
success in the great experiment of govern
ing acceptably the second city in the
world, not less than those who are praying
for its failure and downfall, will be glad
to have the real Tammany chieftain in a
place where the laurels or the bricks will
fall directly upon his head.
Mr.. CROKER is a man of courage. He is
not a man to dodge or shirk his proper
responsibilities.
