Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star.

NEW YORK, February I, 1901.
There are no spring revolutions in fash
ions, so that the woman who has service
able left-overs from last summer may
breathe sigh of economical relief. Lace
and spangles and flowing skirts, Eton jack
cts, fiat sleeve tops, crownless fiaring hats,
tucks and lace encrustations are all but the
old familiar face of things sartorial. Sub
stitute for last seasons long. close sleeves
a pair of under sleeves and the gown that
shone so fair on Easter Sunday of 1900 will
shine as bravely and with the best of them
on Easter Sunday of the new century.
Just at this moment the progress of the
most vigorous shopper is obstructed by the
interesting spring goods exhibits in every
window, and the satin-striped cotton gren-
adines, the new French challies and tbs
embroidered musIins of St. Gall attract the
women about them as honey pot attracts
the flies. Beside these irresistibles there
are within the counters piles of silk
madras for shirtings and bargains i'll lace
that admit of no passing by.

The Seasons Use of Lace.

The lace bargains have already thrown
most women into deplorable state of
bankruptcy, for all the cotton gowns must
be lace garnished. There is nothing strik-
ingly novel in the application of the thread
and drawn work laces so freely utilized. A
pretty silk warp grenadine is sketched to
show how entre-deux insertions may be
criss-crossed artistically over the front of
a gown and introduce thereby an aspect of
charming decoration when the pattern by
which the dress Is made is Itself quite SIM
pie The f1atneck, broad tucked collas aad
elbow sleeves are the particularly modern
details of this simple village toilet.
Beside lace of every washable and un-
washable species the cotton suits are to be
decorated with the always effective white
embroidered edgings that are bordered with
lace There is an air of the most expensive
and dainty charm about the organdie, gins-
ham or dimity dresses treated with lace
edged embroidery that Is happily not al
ways borne out by the actual cost of the
costume.
A detail in the decoration Of many of
the fiimsy summer dresses is the appropri-
ate application of almost infiniteSimal crys-
tai or white porcelain buttons f1ecked with
gold. These are bullet or cabochon in shape
and many Of them are no larger than the
smallest crochet buttons that are SeWed on
infants dresses. In groups and broken
lines on sleeves and belts and boero fronts
they are most attractive, and fare better
covered prototypes.

PHILIPPINE REPORTS.

General MacArthurs report on the

and encouraging. In brief his views are
that the Flllpinos are beginning to re-
al2e the power Of the United STATES
and that an early cessation Of all hos
tllities may be looked for Later
statements from the archipelago are
TO the same effect. The commission Is

EXPERTS ON ALCOHOL.

The uncertainty with which scientists,
handle even what appeals to be simple
problems Is well illustrated In recent
controversies on the subject whether
alcohol Is, or Is not, food. About year
ago Professor Atwater made the asser-
ton that It Is, He based his views on
actual experiments and scientific study
of the question.
But other scientists. as well as peo-
pie interested In the temperance move
ment, were incredulous. They insisted
that alcohol is only poison, injurious to
the human body and under no condi-
lions advisable to take into the human
system.
They also commenced Investigations,
experiments and study and they now
announce that they have failed 10 find
any food IN alcohol. A French scientist
has declared that as result of a
series Of experiments he can say that
the notion that there is anything in al.
coho that can build up bodily tissue,
is an illusion. He thinks that he has
proved that the organism can utilize
that substance neither for the physi-
illogical work necessary when the body
is In state Of repose, nor for the
muscular work required during bodily
exercise.
Here are two scientific opinions one
contradictlng the other, Both are based
on scientific experiments ana observa-
tons. What IS the layman to believer

the general public does not worship
them as infalllble authority on any
