GLIMPSES OF MODES.

The stylish travelling garment is the
long coat of mohair in silver gray or
navy blue.
Canvas in soft makes and almost en-
tirely composed of silk is favorits
material.
Notwithstanding their great popu-
larity last season, lace collars will be
worn with bolero coats this year.
Sequin robes are more elaborate
than ever. One handsome gown seen
recently was made of an embroidery
of jet paillettes on white ground,
worn over an ivory glace taffeta.
Dresses in preparation are long and
full round the bottom and appear as
though the wearer was rolled in an
antique drapery, so soft and flexible
are the materials used for this style.
White petticoats are made to an
enormous extent this season. Some
lovely ones are incrusted with butter
flies of lace, rows of fiounces overlap
ping and cut in indentations filled with
frilled lace fiounces.
A useful addition to woman's
wardrobe is a yoke of point d'esprit,
threaded through with velvet baby
ribbon, which will transform an even
ing gown into one suitable for less
ceremonious occasions.

to the two Filipinos who appeared at

The decision upon this point is Oh
Importance, as having perhaps some
bearing upon the status of the people
of the Philippines, Porto Rico and
Guam. A year ago the decision was
reached to regard the Porto Ricans as
entitled to the protection conveyed
by an American passport, but formal
decision of the test case was prevent
ed through the withdrawal of the ap-
plication. The Foraker act deter
mined the right of Porto Ricans as
"citizens of Porto Rico" to the pro-
lection of the United States govern
ment. 1t is now held that the Spoon
er law conveys the same privilege to
the inhabitants of the Philippines.
The United States statutes prohibit
the issue of a passport to any but
American citizens. But those later
acts, the Foraker act and the Spoon
er act, impose obligations in their
turn, which may be regarded as quail.

citizenship of the islanders.
AT any rate, the circular instruc-
tions now in formula ton, which will
be sent out TO all United States diplo-
matte and consular representatives,
will direct them to issue not certif1-
Gates, but genuine American pass
ports to the islanders.
