summer season of '9S is white satin or
white KID. worked in silver beads. OF
course there are one dozen at least ac-
ceptabie variations from this standard.
Ii must be remarked in passing, how
ever, that all the new white kid shoes
and slippers are made of a skin that
is so eXquisitely dressed it admits of
washing with soap and water The
law of new footgear seems TO be that
everything must he made cool and
easy. There is even a new patent
leather on the market, that neither
draws nor heats the feet, while a
charming innovation is a green glace
caifskin, which comes in the form of
ties especially, and sells like the ira
ditional hot cakes. White and tan
shoes will. of course, dominate tie sea-
son OF hot weather, and women with
very exquisite little extremities wear
white satin ties, strapped and trimmed
with white kid. They dance and drive
in these and fasten the white iaees on
the insteD with clasps of cut steel or
wee buckles of brilliants.
The hot weather naturally has set
the fans TO growing, not only in num-
bers, but in size. Ostrich feather
splendors have come again into their
own, and are more gorgeous than ever,
with their ieweled handles and mirror
miniatures. Deliciously beautiful are
the carved ivory fans, the white fret
ted sticks mounted in white silk, on
which designs Of lace and lovely scenes
are portrayed in the finest pen and ink
work.

warmly tinted Mernut roses.

II In the understanding at the war de-
partment that the bill providing for the
enlistment of over 10000 'immunes" and
a brigade of engineers will be modified
80 as to leave II discretionary with the
president to recruit probably $4,000 men
made up of such special classes as he
may deem best for the service. These
classes, II Is expected, will include I'M
munes." signal corps. cowboy companies
and artillery and engineer regiments.
This course Is regarded as better than
that proposed in thetbill. in that IT will
enable the president to provide for OBJ
tanning such troops as he may think
best.
Among those who have been promi-
nent in urging upon the officials the
formation OF a brigade OF engineer troops
Is Eugene Griffin. vice president OF the
General Electric company. a graduate
of West Point, who served IA years as
aide-de-camp with General Hancock.
He has rendered his services to the
government in connection with the pres
ent war, and in doing so has written an
interesting letter to Secretary Alger,
giving his reasons for the formation Of
a brigade of engineers not exceeding
$500 men. who shall be enlisted and com
missioned In the service. Each OF these
regiments. he says. should be composed
Of civil. mechanical and electrical en-
gineers and practical electricians. me-
chanics. artisans. craftsmen and men
familiar with all kinds of engineering
work. capable of being rapidly converted
into military engineers with proper
training.

Scheme of Rural Delivery Disapproved
of by the Senate.
Washington, May a-During almost
the entire session yesterday the senate
had under consideration the postoffice
appropriation bill. The measure carries
500. .224. 800. being very much the heaviest
OF all the appropriation bills. The most
important action taken upon the meas
ure was the adoption OF an amendment
offered by Mr.. Tillman Is. CO. reducing
the number Of deliveries Of mail In all
cities of the country to not exceeding
four each day. The amendment was
sharply antagonized as blow to busi-
ness interests in the large cities. but the
spite the vigorous opposition, it pre-
vailed by decisive majority.
A lively debate was precipitated by
an amendment OF the committee striking
out the appropriation of $500, 900 for rural
delivery. The proposition was discussed
for nearly two hours. BY the close
vote Of 26 to 22. however. the committee
was sustained and the bill carries no
appropriation for such delivery. An
important amendment will prevent star
route contractors from sub-letting their
contracts. In order to get their money
they must be able to swear that they
performed the service themselves.
Just before adjournment the senate
passed an important war measure au-
thorizing the president and general Off
GERS of the army to supply the Cuban
insurgents with arms and munitions OF
