WASHINGTON, July S-The navy de-

the Oregon has arrived at Chez Foo. She
will start for Kure, Japan, to dock, July

The navy departments cablegram was
from Capt. Rodgers, of the Nashville, who
made a flying trip yesterday from his sta

grounding of the Oregon, thirty-five mites

as follows:
"Che Foo, July 9-oregon starts for

on board Oregon Rodgers.
The dispatch conveys indirectly the IN

NEW YORK, July 9-Rev. Joshua Kim

The Protestant Episcopal church has no
missions in North China, but it has sta

One OF the most interesting eoines
back 10 nature is new way, which
is at the same time the oldest In the
world. OF dressing babies.
There Is fancy for not clo'hing
them at all, merely wrapping them in
swaddling clothes. until they are six
months old.
But there isn't the fainrest probabil-
ity OF this mode becoming anything
like common for a generation or for
generations. The love of making and
buying pretty clothes for babies is
too strong In women's hearts. Even
mothers who cannot take the time 10
do the quantities of hard work which
used TO be considered the only respec-
table wear for babies think il neces-
sary to buy the daintiest garments
which the purse will afford.
1t is true that while a woman here
and there scorns any and
all dress for her young, there
never has been time
when the dress Of children was so
much considered when the shopkeep-
ers were so well prepared to supply
the demand for variety in babies
clothes and other needs.
That the use of the sewing machine
for infants dresses is not altogether
discredited is shown by the use OF
principally machine-made garments in
a layette planned by one of the best
houses. True, the little wardrobe
sells for only s25, and not much in the
way of handiwork can be expected for
so small sum. But there are parents
who have no more to expend than
that, and they are glad to find that.
since they must have less than the
finest things which they desire, those
made with machine at least are well
done for the kind. A layette for S25
includes three flannel bands, three
cashmere bands, three flannel bar
rows. one flannel skirt, one embroid-
cred flannel skirt, three cambric skirts,
one cheesecloth wrapper, three slips,
five dresses one worsted sack three
pieces of cotton diaper, one trimmed
basket, one powder box one powder
puff, two packages of powder, two
cakes of soap and two papers of pins.
There is something new in the way
OF carriage top. Appliqued lace Is
required for it. 1t may be the article
as sold at the shops or of home manu-
facture. A fine white net is required
as foundation for the square, scalloped
piece which is draped over the fat
top. AT intervals of half a dozen
inches and at the corners are small
knots of white ribbon. The carriage
top is of white enameled leather.
Matching the lace top is a lace cover
for the child in the carriage.
