one of the seasons special fashions.
Overskirts or draperies are said to
be fully established in Fashions favor;
but at present they appear mostly in
side panels. reaching to the bottom of
the dress skirt. which shows between
back and front.
Until fashion calls halt. many red
shades are to be in vogue. Among the
brilliant clear tones are pourpre. gren-
ade and coquelicot; Danish red is a
deep rich shade; Etna and Nesuvius
have a yellow cast. and the cherry reds
in vogue are jacqueminot and roi.
Large toques of velvet seem to be the
dominant idea in millinery. and they
are trimmed with upright feathers on
ore side, or long plume falling part
~ on the hair at the side, with two short.
fluffy plumes standing up. Flowers
and bows of ribbon are also used. and
they all tilt up on the left side.
The new ribbons are very attractive.
and are evidently going to be. more

There are gorgeous plaids and the
most fascinating array of stripes. up
and down and across in the Roman
fesh.on. Three or four shades of one
color are striped together, with possibly
velvet stripe on one edge; and then.
again, there are many stripes of con-
trasting colors blended together with
a bright. pretty effect. Oriental bro
caded ribbons add to the variety. and
so do glace ribbons and fancy borders.
There are uncut velvet ribbons with ribs
running crosswise. some in lovely col
crs, the newest being a clear shade of
purple blue

One of the First Lessons That Is
Taught at West Point

Taught at West Point.
The new cadet at the National Mill
tary academy, whether he has come
from the little country school with its
homemade flag and staff, or from the
big school where floats sometimes
city school where floats sometimes a
flag big enough TO cover half the roof
of the other school. has been taught
to respect the beautiful emblem of his
country; but he will learn at West
Point, as soon as he begins his career
as a future officer of the army. how
thoroughly he is to be trained to honor
il in his daily life. The laughing school
boy salute he has perhaps given the
flag from time to time now becomes
a matter of sober ceremony. so rigidly
required and handsomely ordered that
it at once sets him to thinking; and
:he good, sound patriotism that was in
him all along soon envelOps every
glimpse and ceremony of the colors
with a sacredness that will deepen day
by day.
One of his first lessons is TO def his
cap each time he passes the color line"
where the color is guarded by a senti-
mel. Every summer the cadets pass sew
eral months in camp on the lovely banks
OF the Hudson, and beneath the grand
old trees of the academy grounds.
During certain hours of the day
long line of stacked rifles extends along
the front of the camp. Across the two
stacks in the center of the line is laid
the color. rolled about its staff. Up
and down by this flag marches natty
cadet sentinel. and woe be unto the I'M
lucky cadet who tries to pass this sa-
cred trust without raising his cap.
So during his life at the academy
this lesson of respect is continued. and
when he has ''doffed the cadet and
donned the brevet and changed the gray
for the blue" and reported for duty
with his regiment, he finds the same
lessons being taught the enlisted men.
and then probably for the first time does
he realize the full Importance of those
early lessons taught in that far-away
schoolhouse.-Lieut. b. W. Atkinson. in

was therefore organized. Several
tough characters were captured
and paid the penalty with their
lives at the hands of the regula-

spirits took fright and left the
country, never to return, and
the lawlessness stopped in a meas
