New colors Worn by Parisiennes.

Inc Parisienne is wearing a great deal
OF crimson. This color has taken the place
OF the greens and sapphire blues Present.
~ we shall see this crimson ousted by pur-
pie ana light gray, which two colors are
always beloved by the devotee in the Len
ten season. do not think gray such a
trying color unless a woman has a dazz,,rp
complexion or was born a Partisan. De.
spite every law Of nature. the French wo.
man looks charming in gray, even in the
colo tones she has been affecting all winter.
6us you must remember she invariably
wears with gray rich furs and adds a
warmer note of color about the throat For
the golden haired beauty who can stand a
clear, pale shade of gray nothing is mora
netcning or perfectly ladylike, IL one NAV
use such an old-world expression.

be stately and elegant, classical and severe.
We may talk as we will Of the superiority
OF mind over millinery, burt there are occa-
sions when to find oneself ill-equipped or
wrongly equipped Is matter of positive
torment. And the matter is less one of ex-
travagance than Of thrifty forethought. It
Is often not much case of new and
costly garments as Of sufficient variety Of
Items which leads to success In this direc-
ton, and Of those little touches which make
for variation, the dexterous details of which
can be added when required to give the
Superlative touch Of Smartness to a single
gown. Nothing will achive this result to
quickly as new hat. Some of the demi-
season affairs are really works of art. Hats
and toques made for restaurant dinners
have rarely been shown to better advantage
than now. The principal feature seen in
these creations Is the combination of white
tulle and Illusion with silver and gold lace
adorned with plumes and flowers. This
light trimming composes broad toques and
large picture hats.
A Holly Trimming.
On many Of the smaller affairs holly is
extremely popular. 1t is seen to advantage
when composing the crown of o long-haired,
broad-brimmed hat with sprays Of the
shaded green leaves and red berries placed
cunningly beneath the brim on either side
Of the hair. Large picture hats entirely
covered with gathered or plated white tulle
and chenille work are artistically arranged
with garlands of roses, lilies or violets as
broad wreaths Of flowers outlining the
brims. Others display sweeping ostrich or
or amazon feathers falling from large pearl
or ornamental buttons. These cabochons
are quite as much worn as ever. They
come in all sorts of shades and devices, but
the newest are the green enameled varie-
ties.
-Jraperies of lace still find favor, but pref
erence seems to be shown to the large
me-trimmed hats having the one end Of
plated tulle or mousseline falling down be-
hind and encircling the neck fastening In
front with a long slide pin. This Is
mighty fetching fashion, as tulle near the
face is the most becoming thing on earth.
There Is a bewildering array Of novelties In
millinery even at this late day. Possibly
the most startling Is the vegetables. We
have been educated up to fruits and nuts
made OF velvet, but radishes and carrots
are now not disdained.
Flowers and Furs.
Making a market garden on ones head
Is not pleasant prospect, and the eternal
fitness Of things Is little out Of gear when
a thing SO very outre Is demanded. It is
charming to hear that we may wear pink
and white camellias on our fur hats and
toques. They are the rage and will con-
tinue the favorite form Of decoration for
some time to como.
The style of the moment Is large turban
made OF jet or flowers, and the prettiest
combinations may be arranged with these.
In jet, the hat must be all black or with
just drapery of white tulle and either a
black or white a1grette or g. couple of ca
mellias and leaves. The flower turban lends
itself to prettier ideas. A very smart hat

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star

IAISlAo, JANUARY IL, 1ooO.
Socially speaking, nowadays we are wo-
men without country. for the functions
which affect the mondaine In great lands
like England. America and France react
upon each other. This international feeling
is having full sway here in Paris, where
we have been almost as excited over the
durbar as the English themselves, and the
reflex action is felt in the number OF cos
tune dances which have cropped up mod
eled upon the very elaborate affair given
by the Curzons in India No doubt in Amer
lea you are tripping the light fantastic en-
costume as enthusiastically as the Parish
enne. The women here invite their particu
lar friends to meet at one another's houses
and listen to costume talk given by an
authority on the subject, who also illus
trates the little lecture with historically
correct pictures.
OF course, my lady goes to a great cou-
turier. and he selects the proper gown. but
the fad just at present is to be able to talk
as one having authority; consequently she
must be posted as to the different periods
which have decidedly Influenced styles We
are almost Of one mind concerning the be-
comingness and beauty of gowns worn dur
ing the Louis reigns. The majority Of wo-
men look their best In bal poudre costume.
Another very attractive consideration for
choosing u LOUIS peTlOu gown Is tndC II we
go to a fancy dance as lady Of the French
court We shall be able to use our brocade
afterward.
Some of these brocades are very beautiful
especially the gold and white ones. If you
get thick silk the skirt hardly requires
lining when arranged in full folds or gath
cred from the waist. The wise woman who
adopts frock of the Louis XIV style will
take advantage of the coy ringlet at the
back of her coiffure which should fall pref
tily on the neck. But she must not favor
this sweet conceit unless the hair Is well
coiffured in distinctly French fashion. A
promiscuous curl hanging from lank locks
dragged back from the face is ludicrous

A regal costume. If one cares to be 50

The bodice and transparent skirt are
trimmed with long Van Dykes Of white

plants. A dark green velvet bolero dis

lief, and the velvet Is draped across the
bust with pearls, showing the crown of
England in diamonds and the shield in en-
amel. The turban-like headdress is COM
posed OF green and white satin interblended
with Indian ornaments. and the aigrette is a

A New Partisan Hat.

A large hat Is called the Geraldine. Al
ternate bands Of black taffeta and chenille
form the upturned, flaring brim. and a
novel crown made Of white silk ruching
produces very piquant effect. The only
trimming consists of superb branch OF
white thistles, with white and silver foli-
age placed under the brim and dropping
gracefully on the hair. Simplicity is the
keynote of ali successful Partisan milli-
merry this year. and this hat is a beautiful
example.

Braiding Very Much Used.

Braid Is certainly very much to the fore
again, but the use OF broad braid quite an
Inch deep is the noyel feature. When the
narrower makes are used they are set to-

Some of the skirts are trimmed from hem

STAT. rreasurer,s Report.

State Treasurer Newton on Sept.
4th transmitted to Governor Peabody
his financial report TOR the semi-an-
nual biennial period. ending August 81.
1t shows that up to September 1st the
different state departments had prac-
tically used all OF the funds appro-
priated for their use during the year, or
all the funds there was any likelihood
OF their getting, owing to the deficit in
the revenues.
The board of health, the humane
society and practically all of the minor
departments have absolutely no funds
at their disposal for the expenses of
the next four months. The executive
departments are in nearly as bad a
position.
The decrease in the total valuation
OF state property will hardly exceed
SIT 100000 if it is that much. Alb
stracts of assessments have been filed
in the auditors office from forty-seven
of the fifty-nine counties. and. al
though practically all of them show a
slight decrease, the total is not nearly
half of what it was estimated by Audi
tor Holmberg week ago.
At that time less than forty counties
had been heard from. and. basing his
calculations on what had already come
in. Mr.. Holmberg said that the total
valuation of the property would prob
ably be about 100000 900, instead of
the $35S, 100000 on which they esti-
mated.
The forty-seven counties that have
sent in their abstracts show total of
S232 ,503,S11 If the remaining twelve
counties show even the same valuation
as last year, which was little more
than S104 ,596, ,163, the total valuation
of the state will run up to 1887 ,O99, ,974,
leaving a shortage of S16,902,527.

COL LORADO STATE AFFAIRS AND
DOINGS AT THE CAPITAL CITY
Work of Pardonino Board.

Bert Feenan. who was sentenced to
the penitentiary from Arapahoe county
in September, 1902. for the reception
of stolen goods. was pardoned on the
4th inst by the state board of par
dons. Florence Thurman. who stole
the goods, was sent 10 the peniten-
tiary for the offense and served her
time of one year. As soon as she was
out she began to circulate the story
that Feenan was not to blame. This
fact was presented to the board of
pardons with such force that 1t de-
cided to pardon the man.
John Heman had his sentence COM
muted to three years from ten. Evf-
dence presented to the board showed
that Heiman was only partly respon-
sible for the crime charged up against
him, that of passing counterfeit mon
ey in Pueblo He was accused OF and
sentenced because of the passing OF a
50-cent counterfeit piece.
Pardon was refused by the board in
the cases of Otto Lehman, Joseph Par
ry and II. DeLovell. and the cases of
Spencer Dicks and John p. Black We're
postponed for further investigation.
Contracts have been let by Secre-
tary Leuders of the state board of cap
ital managers for the renovating ana
repairing of room is in the state house,
which is now used as a store room. A
new floor will be put in and the walls
of the room will be decorated. This is
the room which was used by Con-
tractor Peter Gumry when the build
ing was in course of construction. In
this room the first floor was laid in
the building for the convenience of Mr..

has been used as a storeroom ever
