VARIETY IN SHAPE AND STYLE
MAKES CHOICE OF SLEEVE DIFFICULT

One especially artistic style-only
suitable for dinner or tea gown-is slit
the entire length Of the arm, and held
together on the shoulder with a jew
elled clasp, and the lower part Of the
sleeve falling almost to the wrist
Sleeves with shirring across the en-
tire upper part are also made with full
bell effect. unlined and gathered into
a shirred band at the wrist, and when
made Of chiffon or muslin are exceed
ingly becoming.
Full pulled undersleeves Of lace OF
chiffon beneath the silk or cloth sleeves
look delightfully."- cool and dainty. Now
it is the fad to have several pairs of
undersleeves so that there will always
be q clean pair ready, thus reviving a
fashion Of fifty years ago.
With the fOulard or muslin gowns
these undersleeves are not lined, and II
is quite as fashionable to have them
fit close to the arm as to have them
in loose puffs. Indeed, everything de
pends upon which part OF a womans
arm is the best whether the upper OF
lower sleeve shall be lined.
With the heavy cloth or velvet coats
the undersleeve is. of course, always
lined. and a heavy lace is more et-
fective than any other, and for the
moment more fashionable than a pun
Of velvet or silk.

JULYS PLEASANT WEArHRR
There We're No Extremes Of Temperature
During the Month

Measured by comfort and the absence
OF suffering from torrid temperature.
the last month in Wilmington has been
exceptionally favorable and comfort
able for July. but measured by thermal
units from which mean daily tempera-
lures are determined. an average of 76
degrees is the result, which is the aver
age for July for the last thirty-one
years.
This discrepancy between the two
estimates OF the character of the
month Is due to the absence OF high
temperatures, prolonged periods of tor
rid heat and high humidity so largely
in evidence during July 1900 and 1901.
The highest temperature recorded dur
ing the month was 81 degrees. on July
8, while on July 8. 1901 1872 degrees
were recorded The average for that
month was 79. The thermometer went
TO 80 degrees or above only ON three
days during the month. Cool nights
prevailed and temperatures between go
and 20 degrees were frequent during
the early morning.
The coolest July on record was IN
1891, the mean temperature was az,
and the highest during the month was
SO. The warmest months on record
were July. 1900 and 1901, with a mean
temperature OF 79.
Rains have been frequent during the
last month. and at times heavy. Elec-
trical storms were also OF frequent oc-
currence and unusually damaging 10
life and property throughout the State.
For the coming month Of August the
last thirty years record shows mean
temperature OF 70; the warmest month
was in 1900. with an average of 10.
The highest temperature yesterday
was rs at noon; the average humidity
was 80. and nearly half an inch OF rain
fell. Tomorrow will be partly cloudy
but warmer.

WILL GRADUATE NAY 1.
Naval Cadets to Be Hurried Into the
Service

In order to meet the urgent necessity for
an additional number Of naval officers for
sea service the Secretary OF the Navy has
authorized the graduation Of the first class
of cadets at the Naval Academy, May l
next, about a month In advance Of the
usual time. This class numbers sixty MEM
bers and their graduation will increase the
commissioned strength Of the navy to that
extent a month earlier than would be pos
sible under ordinary conditions. The num-
Der OF officers to be available for sea dut..
on the LIST Of May will be still further in
creased by the detachment of fifteen Of
hcerS who have been on duty as instructors
at the Naval Academy.
At least three-fOurths of the class to be
graduated will be assigned to duty on the
Asiatic station. while the remainder will
be distributed among the vessels on the
other stations. Each man will be sent to
sea for q two years cruise. a-<.itt -
1t Is the purpose of the department to de-
tail all cadets now at sea, Including the
class that will be commissioned ensigns
next July. to watch duty, and the cadets
that will leave Annapolis In May will re-
lieve the senior cadets of their present du-
ties. and thus make available nearly 100
young officers. Both classes now at sea
will be retained on ships. and the class
coming UP for final graduation this spring
will he examined on the stations instead
OF at the Naval Academy.

FILIPINos' CRUELTY.
Data Sent to the Senate by Secretary
Root

One OF the documents sent to the Senate
by Secretary Root in connection with the
charges Of American cruelty to F'ilipinos
was a statement made up from the reports
of commanders Of military districts in the
islands showing the number OF natives
killed and assaulted by the Filipino SOL
diery because of real or suspected SYM
pathy with the cause of the United States.
The reports only extend up to December of
1900, but they show that the number of ma
tives murdered for this reason aggregated
50i, while ol3 We're more or less seriously
assaulted and wounded. In addition to
the Sc 30 municipal officers were murdered
by the insurrectos because they took office
under American authority. and 81 were the
victims Of assault. A statement was also
submitted to show that up to August last
$ American officers, 81 enlisted men and
3 civilians had been tried by court-martial
in the islands for offenses committed
against the natives. Ten Of these were
sentenced to death. four to life imprison-
n,ent and twenty to various terms of con-
tinement ranging UP to twenty years.

TORPEDO BOATS DEFENDED.
Admiral Melville Praises the Fleet
Under Construction

Although Rear Admiral George w. Mel
vile, chief Of the bureau Of steam enei-
neering. does not believe torpedo boats ah
soiuteiy essential to the navy, he has moth
Ing but praise for the character of such
craft built and building for the United
States navy. In reference to the reported
inefficiency Of a large number Of our tor
pedo boats now under construction he saws
that they are as well IL not better designed
tnan any similar class of torpedo boats.
NO change will be made in their original
design. he says and they will be put
through their trial tests under the usual
conditions prescribed by the department.
Admiral Melville takes exception to tho
report that the torpedo boat fleet now
building Is structurally weak, faulty in de-
sign. and. through alleged overwhelming.
too heavy in displacement. He insists that
their engines are as nearly perfect as they
can be made. and that the boats instead Of
being failures are fine specimens OF naval
architecture. I'VE have" he says, "the
best destroyers and torpedo boats today
built by any government. ton for ton in
displacement and knot for knot in speed,
and the heavier they are built in propor-
tion to their displacement the better they
