FEr1ININE FASHIONS.

New York, April 20-In the midst of her preparation for summer the wo- man of fashion busies herself with the selection of filmy lawns and muslins, with blssful indifference to the ex. quisite spring modes which so recent. ly have burst forth in beauty upon her. When she takes her exodus to country, mountain or Seashore this year her wardrobe will consist almost entirely of white gowns, for white has been decreed the color of summer
 The possibilities presented in white are too numerous to mention. Beguil- Ing excellencies in dress greet vou at every turn and she who cherishes T desire to be smartly habited rather than a regard for her purse, overiqlns her dress allowance with as much ealmness as though money was no consideration whatever
 No material suggests luxury and comfort as does silk crepe dc chine. A gown developed in this fabric k very elegant inset with wide inser. uons of old lace. The edges of the lace are irregular in pattern and where the skirt is made over hand some lining the crepe de chine is often cut cut from underneath it, in describably enhancing the effect of the gown

goes. Louisine makes a dressier gown because of the silver sheen previously ferred to, and, consequently, is more desirable. A pretty design carried out in this material is trimmed with cafe au lait insertion sewed upon the bodice to outline a deep round yoke. The skirt is laid in groups of tiny tucks- three tucks to a group-and finished around the foot with a shaped tlounce.
 The yoke is tucked and made very smart with a wide collar of silk over laid with insertion. Wide collars ap- pear on all kinds of gowns and coats, and the prettiest, of course, are of lace, embroidery and batiste.
 A very desirable model made of one of the diaphanous fabrics shows a tucked skirt and deep plaited flounce with four narrow ruffles edged with a tiny ruche. The bodice has loose front in which is set vest of plaited chiffon. The sleeves are tucked at the shoulder and appliqued with diamond shaped designs of point q Arabe lace.
 Some of the prettiest sleeves show the undersleeve effect only at the el- bows, where the sleeve is slashed and in, will Below this, as well as above, the sleeve fits closely, shaping down in a little cuff which fits over the hand The straight-around wristband has lost some of it's popularity and instead there is shaped band with the be- coming flare.
 Fishus are being displayed in great CT variety than ever. They come in graduated lengths and may depend from either the stock or a rosette at the bustlne with equal effect.
 An important place in the fashion able summer outfit is occupied by the travelling coat or dark taffeta. The prettiest are tucked all over and worn with elegant collars of renaissance and other lovely faces.
 passing word may be said of styles for children These in contra distinction of the modes for their el- ders, are remarkably simple and are designed according to the dictates of good sense as we'll as fashion The very long waist with short skirts is popular. With the little dresses of this description are worn sashes of silk and satin and the soft silk These materials, however, are expensive and besides soiling quickly are difficult to clean on account of their delicate col bring. They are substituted very often by soft wash materials with excellent effect. The latter should not be starched during the process of laun- dering if their softness is to be re- tained.

 1~><~>(><~~~xu<A

The Democrat is the official paper ot l the state federation.
 Mr. George w. Thomas, who is now connected with the Little Rock and Hot Springs Western road, at Hot l Springs, but was for years with the Western Union Tclegrap. company here, came to the city Friday evening to accompany his if back to the l Springs. Mrs. Thomas was quite prom inent among the federation delegates during the meeting. They attended the Valhalla german Friday night and there MT. Thomas met many of his old acquaintances.
 Mrs. A. Retan and daughter, Miss Carrie, returned to Little Rock Satur- day morning. Mesdames E. T. Bram- lett and s. A. Grubbs, of Malvern, re- turned home at the same time
 Excellent was the paper on "Wo- men and Worry" read by Mrs Maude Phillips, of Helena, Friday afternoon. It was well prepared and properly read
 Mrs. Frederick Hanger, who so ably presided over the meeting of the fed eration and most creditably filled the office of president of that organization for two years, returned to her home in Little Rock Saturday afternoon. She was the guest of Mrs John NJ. Taylor while here. Mrs. Helen M. Norton returned to Little Rock with her
 The singing of Mrs. E. s. Ready. of Helena before the convention Friday. was number much enjoyed. Mrs Ready IS possessed of unusual vocal powers and charmed her hearers. She IS the guest of Mrs. J. H. Gammeu. Other charming musical numbers ren- dered by artists of no little note were those of Mrs. L. O. Knox and sister. Mrs. Harry Shoemaker, of Charles. ton H., Miss Vice HarreI and Mrs De Bradshaw.
 The reeitations of that charming eioeutionists, Mrs. c. T. Gotham. of Little Rock, were among the Ieadina features of the convention program.
 Mesdames Henry and Massey and . Miss Wadley, of Hot Springs. who were guests of Mrs. J. w Adams, re turned home Saturday morning.
 Mrs Theo Treadway, who was the guest of Miss Mary Lindsay during the federation meeting. returned to her home yesterday.

Every outgoing train on all raii- roads are carrying home the visitors A more representative crowd of peo- pie never visited Pine Bluff and it is needless to say that they all made nu- merous friends during their stay in the city. The city federation, assist ed by the various clubs of the city, did evrything in their power to make the visit of the club women here pleas ant and profitable The work was well done.
 Mrs. T. w. M. Boone, of Fort Smith and Mrs. R. w. Nichols, of Helena, en- joyed a hearty laugh at each others expense at the Friday session. Mrs Boone absent-mindedly put a revenue stamp on letter she addressed to her husband, but some friend was kind enough to add a postage stamp before mailing the letter. Mrs. Nichols ad- dressed a postal card to her husband,
 
 she turned it over to write her mes sage, she began it with Dear Moth er.' AS it was a family affair Mrs. Nichols did not make change after she discovered her mistake
 Miss Rebecca Dowdle returned to her home at Morrillton Saturday morning. She was the guest of Miss Mittie Knox while in the city and made many friends. Miss DoWdle is considered one of Arkansas prettiest daughters.
 Mesdames H. H. Meyers and c. B. LaBelle, of Brinkley. who were guests of Mrs. John l.. Mills during the con vention, left Friday afternoon for Clarendon, where they will visit for a few days before returning home.
 Among the attractive features of the federation meeting was the dis play made in one of the parlors by the State Floral Emblem society, of which Mrs. H. c. Rightor, of Helena, is president. The exhibit consisted of books of various types, containing the history of the society. record of the work accomplished and clippings from various papers. An odd feature contained in the display was book containing official documents sent out or used by the society since the day of organization to the present date This society was almost exclusively instrumental in inducing the legisla. ture to adopt the apple blossom as the state floral emblem.
 The members of the Nalhalla club did themselves proud Friday night, on which occasion they tendered the vis 1ting ladies a german at their hall Never before in the history of that club was there such an array of style. beauty and fashionable dress. It was one of the most enjoyable affairs of the entire week.
 resolution was adopted at the Friday afternoon session of the meet. ing to the effect that each club in the state federation subscribed for four or more copies of the Arkansas Dem ocrat for one year, making a total of tow hundred and fifty subscribers for that paper among the clubs in the state alone, not counting the number of club members that are already on the subscription list of that paper.

silk null has the skirt draped over a drop lining of white taffeta The null is overlaid with real valenciennes in sertion stitched over the skirt in lat tice design with all the ends meeting Tn points at the front To accentuate the e1fect tiny carved pearl buttons mark the junctures, making charm ingly original design.
 With pure white gowns touches of color are gained in rosettes and bows of louisine silk. This is very soft and sheeny and imparts an air of dainti- ness not to be found in the other silks. Sashes are in vogue and consist of a narrow band finished at the back or left side in a small bow and long. flow ing ends.
 An odd feature in belts is one of silk monsseline draped wide and full around white satin striped blouse and fastened with large rosette. It may be mentioned incidentally. that finely striped silks are one of the nov city materials for the blouse. The white silks show many varieties in stripes and combine almost any. mate rial in these effects
 Going back to louisine, however, it may be stated that it is tresspassing upon the province of foulard to a marked degree and it is not improb- able that the latter has seen it's best days as far as fashionable success

SUBMARINE BOATS.
Naval Bureau Chiefs DO Not Favor the
Purchase of Them by the Govern
ment.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE house
committee on naval affairs has prac-
tically completed the naval appropri-
alton bill. The question of the in
crease of the navy, which usually en-
tails the largest contest, was easily
settled this year by the acceptance
of the tion of the secre-
tary of the navy for two battleships
and two cruisers. The committee
also finally decided to give the full
increase of enlisted men asked for by
the secretary, 5000 men.
There is a possibility that in addi-
ton to the increase of the navy Il
number of submarine boats of the
Holland type will be provided for at
the last moment, but this is hardly
probab ble The committee has a
confidential report of the board of
bureau chiefs of the navy department
signed by Admirals ONeill, Melville,
Bradford and Naval Constructor
Woodward. which strongly opposes
the authorization of further boats OF
this type. Eight of these boats were
authorized by the last naval appro-
priation bill. The conclusion of the
