AT Princeton, N. j., the smallpox
scare has abated considerably and
Thursday but few of the students
left for their homes. The single case
of varioloid has been found to be a
very light one and scarcely any fur
ther anxiety is felt by the townspeople
or students.
Adm. Montcjo, who was in command
of the Spanish squadron destroyed by
Adm. Dewey in the battle Of Manila
bay, and the commander of the Cavite
arsenal were Friday evening incar-
cerated in the military prison in Mad
rid, pending trial for their conduct at
at Manila.
The farm house occupied by the fam
lily of Joshua McGee, six miles from
onawa, Ia, burned Friday forenoon,
and his two children, boy years OF
age and baby girl were burned to
death. The mother was fatally burned
in attempting to rescue the children.
The husband and father was away
from home at the time.

good rules for a material that may
look well, and seemingly be suited to
ones complexion in the subdued light
OF the shop. may be extremely hideous
In the brighter light out of doors.
But the French woman will SEEM
ingly never learn to wear dark colors
for street wear and preserve her bright
cOlors for evening.
She insists upon wearing bright COL
ors on all occasions. In fact, her street
gowns are even brighter than her even
ing gowns. On the street she wears
the most brilliant reds, blues, greens,
and / have even seen street gowns of
yellow. Nor are the bright colors con-
fined to any one class, but are worn by
the rich and the poor alike, the only
difference being in the quality of the
goods.
One thing that is never destined to
become very popular in Paris is the
tailormade gown. Not that they are
not worn, for they are TO a certain ex-
tent, but the tailor-made gown is dis
tinctly London production. Paris is
too much inclined to favor the exclu-
sive style In dress for the tailor made
TO become popular.
The ready-made tailor gowns that
one sees in the Paris shops are nearly
all imported from the English capi-
tai, and, coming as they do from the
home OF that style, are sure to show
the latest effects.
Among the noticeable features of this
class OF gowns are the scallops. Every
thing tailor-made must have scallops.
The jackets are scalloped around the
bottoms, Stitching must be put on in
scallops around the skirts II they are
stitched ct all. Another feature of the
tailor-made is the use of buttons in
trimming. These are shown both in
front and rear. While the placket hole
of the dress gown is to be carefully hid
den by trimming, and the buttons re-
moved, they will be retained on tine
tailor-made, not as trimming around
the placket hole, for that has been
placed on the side, but where the
placket hole is supposed TO be. Still
another feature OF the latest tailor
made is the short jacket which has al
most entirely replaced the longer coat.

of pointed tu1iic. On some this tunic
is permanent. but on others that will
appeal to the economically inclined it is
ad Unstable, and when added converts a
house gown into street dress.
Still another novelty seen In tailor
gowns Is to have the buttonholes
worked in the left front instead of the
right. This gives more mannish look
TO the garment
Among The novelty trimmings none
are more popular for revers, pipings,
vests. and collars, or for entire bodiees,
than the silks embroidered in chenille
and silk In tiny flower patterns or fig
urings in bright colors. Some of these
embroideries are further enriched by
drops in white metal.
Among the embroideries that are
seen none are prettier than the jet and
cut steel, some of which are very elub-
crate in design, and are used with beau
tiful effect.
A new cloth for mourning wear tina I
is made up with pretty effects is called
Erooma, and is an importation woven
in crepe effect. 1t is used for entire
costumes or for separate skirts.

While II is usual 10 see these dresses in
the darker shades, nearly all of those
shown in Paris are in bright coiors.
One that saw recently is of a bright
rod chevlot serge, the perfectly hanging
sklrt-devoid OF any fullness at the
back-surmountcd by II doubled breast
ed coat, that has by way of trimming
red and gold braid figuring round the
black velvet facing on the scalloped
collar. A bias fold OF cheviot serge
accentuntes the novel-shnpcd collar,
which on the outer edge has piping
OF black velvet. Indeed this piping
marks prominently the outline of the
trim little coat that further has for
ornamenaation groups of gold buttons
that make an admirable finish to a
smart costume. | must not forget to
add IT Is lined with white silk.
Another shown in the same shop was
of fawn-colored Venetian cloth. This
was trimmed with triple rows of stitch
Ing on both coat and skirt. The collar
and cuffs nre faced with fawn velvet>
and bordered with white MORE, upon
which is arranged design in fawn and
silver braid. Both OF these the sales
man assured me were imported from
London.
Most of the tailor gowns have sheath
like skirts, fitted as closely as they can
possibly be about the upper portion in
both front and back. Many of the short
jackets are seamless, the front being
made in the Eton style, opening on a
vest of soft corded silk. Under the belt
is added basque which has the effect

. . m MERICAN women are learn

a Paris shopkeeper to me the other
day. .,
"they bought what they thought pret-
ty, regardless OF how II suited them
or for what IL was TO be worn, but they
have gotten over this habit. and are
now really becoming masters OF the
art Of purchasing suitable colorings
for their garments"
The really fashionable Paris dress
maker will object to making a gown
which he considers will be unsuitable
either in color or style. He says he
cannot afford to ruin his reputation
by turning out the gowns that will
not look well or be appropriate for
the occasion for which they are in
tended. When one goes to one of them
for q gown one has to submit not only
to his prices but TO his dictates as to
style and color as well. 1t is but JUS
tice TO the man dressmaker TO say that
there ore but few cases where the wom-
an Is not the better Off for so submit
ting to his dictates.
The women from America and
England who are purchasing gowns in
Paris are learning to try all goods for
evening wear by bright artificial light
before buying. In the same way they
insist upon trying goods for out-of-
