The modest little edelweiss blossoms
have suddenly achieved a new notoriety.
In imitation, at least. they have crept out
of their snowy beds in the Swiss mountains
and blossomed out on women's gowns
and hats.
They are made OF white velvet and silk
and their exclusiveness is sure TO add much
TO their charm as a means OF decoration.
We see them on evening gowns, In double

JEWELRY AT THE OPERA.
The MaEnifcence or tho prina Donnas
Dimmed Nowadays by the boxes.

The display of jewelry is greater AT the
opera than it is anywhere else outside the
homes of the wealthy women who pro-
vide the decorative features Of the par
terre row Of boxes. And never before
his year were so many jewels to be seen.
There was a time when the diamond
tiara Of Mrs. George Gould used 20 start
a hum Of eminent through the house
when she entered her box. II every tiara
seen there now caused ak il would not
be- possible TO hear the opera.
There Is rarely a box which does not
reveal at least one wearer of a tiara. and
sometimes there are several. II the dis
play Of jewelry does not take this form
there is likely 20 be some other lavish and
costly exhibition Of gems which adds force
10 the conviction that the prosperity Of
the country must be greater than II ever
wa before and that the thoughts Of women
must have turned more than ever before
toward jewclry.
one explanation 81 the increase Of tho
display Of ~Jewelry T. the excellence Of tho
limitations now made and the disappear
ance Of the prejudice against imitation
%jowelry. There may he some truth In
this theory, but a. j. not 20 be- supposed
that much u the ~iewelry seen In the boxes
is false. The present vogue Il fine jewels
and the desire 20 have them may some
times lead women 10 buy the imitation

A SUGGESTION FOR SANTA CLAUS.

this income would have gone on increas-
ing year by year even if the United States
had not agreed to purchase the franchise
and property of the Panama Canal COM
pany. .'...
Secretary Hay is endeavoring to, per-
suade the Colombian representative that
it will be unwise for his government to
attempt to exact too large rental because
the effect of such a move might be to
prevent ratification of the canal treaty.
The state department fears that if the
senate gets the impression that Colombia
is engaged in a game of hold-up, with a
money consideration as. the price for ac-
ceding to our terms, the treaty that is
now being negotiated may fail. ...>e. p.
The situation is a delicate one. While
the disposition Of the senators who were
conspicuous for their advocacy Of the
Nicaragua route is to accept the Panama
route as the only available compromise,
they will not hesitate to oppose a treaty
that would fasten on the United States
high fixed charges. ~ -: d. - y.
Senator Morgan, pioneer of the 5advo-
Gates of the Nicaragua route, has indi-
Gated his willingness to accept the Panama
canal. He brought up resolution fix
ing the salaries of members of the canal
commission at $4,000 a year. He explained
that the purpose of the bill was to put an
end to system of extravaganza ,disburse-
ment for salaries for which there was no
excuse or reason. He added that the mem
bers of the present commission have been
drawing salaries Of $1,000 a month, not
withstanding- they spent but six weeks
altogether on the isthmus. -
