A skirt which is really four skirts in
one, which is mysterious and fluffy and
diaphanous and airy, made of filmy ia
brics Of changing tones, such is the new
dress skirt this year. It so envelopes
the figure that only the suggestion of
q curve here and there in its filmy
folds is left to charm the eye and this
is the secret of correct dressing. The
newest skirt is for the spring and sum-
mer girl, and it is another illustration
Of the extravaganza Of the age. It
costs just twice as much as any other
skirt, no matter how plain 1t may be.
Not so long ago such thing as the
dress skirt and its lining being sep
arate was something unknown. Now
almost all of the newest dresses have
the skirt and the lining apart. And
from this drop skirt" as it is called.
the new mysterious skirt developed.
The materials of which it is fashioned
are the most beautiful of the season.
There are the plain and figured grena-
dimes Of almost spider-web texture,
barege In many new patterns. silky
crepes and mousseline de sole, and
gauze with designs so delicate and in
such exquisite colors that they appear

to be hand painted. Then there are
the nets in great variety-the craguele
net, plain or scattered, with chenille
dots, and the coarse and fine mesh nets.
some plain and some appliqued with
lace designs. And the colors are so
toned that the effect is indescribably
beautiful. Turquoise and cherry gauze
ere blended together, and turquoise and
green and turquoise and mauve. Pale
blue and pale green and framboise
black and faint yellow are used in COM
bination in one skirt. The effect OF
the new skirt is such that all the color
seems to be enveloped in mist. One of
the most striking ways of making
gown with four skirts Is shown in the
illustration. The material Is white
silk gauze, and 1t is trimmed with
black chantilly lace and tiny rouchings
Of fine black net. Next to the skirt
proper is another skirt of turquoise
gauze finished with an edge of black
lace. Then skirt No. 3 is of violet
gauze. with a creamy lace border, and
the foundation petticoat is Of rich
white taffeta. Each skirt is separate
from the other, except at the waist
band. where they are joined together.
The corzelet and yoke Of the bodice
worn with this skirt are Of turquoise
taffeta, finely plated. In all the gowns
made in this fashion 1t II essential to
have one bright touch Of color In the
bodice and that color must always
match the brightest Of the petticoats.
The dress with four skirts Is also q
success made In darker colors. A dark
de sole will look effective

Mrs. Logan Suggested tho Day.
In the spring of 1868 General Logan
and were invited to visit the battle
grounds Of the South with a party of
friends. AS certain important matters
kept him from joining the party, how
ever. I went alone, and the trip proved
a most interesting and impressive one.
The South had been desolated by the
war. Everywhere signs of privation
and devastation were constantly pre-
senting themselves to us. The graves
of the soldiers, however, seemed as far
as possible the objects Of the greatest
care and attention.
One graveyard that struck me as be-
ing especially pathetic was in Rich
mond. The graves were new, and just
before our visit there had been a
Memorial Day" observance, and upon
each grave there had been placed a
small Confederate flag and wreaths Of
beautiful flowers. The scene seemed
most impressive to me. and when I re-
turned to Washington I spoke Of It
to the general and said wished there
could be q concerted action of this kind
all over the North for the decoration Of
the graves of our own soldiers. The
general thought 1t q capital idea, and
with enthusiasm set out to secure its
adoption
At that time he was commander-in-
chief of the Grand Army. The next
day he sent for Adjutant General Chip
man, and they conferred as to the best
means Of beginning general observ-
ance. On the fifth day of May in that
year the historic order was put out.
General Logan often spoke Of the is
suing of this order as the preudest act
Of his life.
It was marvellous how popular the
idea became at once. The papers all
over the land copied the order. and the
observance was q general one. The
memorial ceremony that took place at
Arlington that year was perfectly in
spring to all the old soldiers. General
Grant, Generals Sherman and Sheridan.

voice to the War Department, includ-
ing the famous flag and the fair wealth
er flag in the returns. The Secretary
of War promptly ordered the return Of
the flags to the major, accompanying
them with a letter In which he said
that they could not be in better keep
ing than in the hands of the man who
SO CALAMITY defended them.
Major Anderson had the flags placed
in the vaults of the Metropolitan Bank
in New York, and there they remained
until it was evident that General Sher-
man would wiring Fort Sumter from the
dying grasp of the Confederacy. The
flag was again sent South, and on the
day the Confederates surrendered the
fort it was again hoisted to the peak
Of the flag pole by Major Anderson
himself.
This happened on April IA. 1865. ex-
actly four years to the day from the
evacuation. A salute of 100 guns was
fired at the fort In honor Of the Gag,
and the guns Of the surrounding batter
les and ships joined in the uproar.
After that the old nag was returned
to the bank vaults. not to be seen again
until death called its owner. Then it
was used as pail At the soldiers fun

ceeding generation its unique historical
value will incrtase.

that 1t Is rarely removed from the
strong box in the safe deposit vaults.
The ravages of time have had little
effect upon its color. The red, white
and blue are almost as bright today as
they were thirty-six years ago, and
were it not for the rips and tears it
would make gallant appearance to-
day flying in the bright sunlight.
seven times during the first day Of
the bombardment the Flagstaff was
struck, but by strange series Of &C
cidents the Tag continued to fly at the
peak. After one of these accidents Ma
jor Anderson exclaimed: God Al
mighty nailed that flag to the staff and
could not lower it If tried
this way. Outside the bar marking
the entrance to the harbor were several
Federal vessels. This feet could not
enter the harbor without being sunk by
the cannon of the land batteries, and
all it could do was to anchor out of
It Is needless to say with what anx-
iety the men on these ships watched
the flag flying over Sumter. They knew
that sooner or later it must come down,
but they also knew Anderson, and felt
that he would hang on to the last
gasp.
Every little while Major Anderson
gave orders to dip the flag to the fleet
to show that everything was all right.
During one of these salutes, and when
the flag was being hoisted back into
place after the third dip. a shell burst
near the staff, cutting the ballard. The
flag started to come down with a run,
but a piece Of the cut rope got damned

Fashion Notes.

There Is but little of the new shirt

quite the same. Yokes may be varied

changes. but not enough to attract the
attention OF any one but an expect. A
trifing departure Is the round collar

four decades back is preparing to pay
its yearly tribute to its dead through

land, this memento-a flag so worn

the battlements of Fort Sumter on that
eventful morning Of April II, 1861,
when the newly organized Confederate
forces began the bombardment which
started the greatest conflict Of modern
times.
There were two garrison flags In the
fort; one was the fine weather flag and
the other TIL stormy weather flag. Like
the chaos in mems hearts the elements
threatened on that historic day, so the
storm flag was run up and in short time
became the target of the Confederate
shot.

And We dream. as we turn from their
