SOCIETY,"

This department, while intended
chiefly as a record of social events, is
open to the various womans clubs and
societies of the city for the advance
ment of their interests, whether phil
anthropic, literary or patriotic. News
regarding them is solicited and should
be communicated directly to the So
ciety editor.
News Of a purely social nature will
be received, whether communicated
verbally or in writing, at any time,
though preferably before o'clock p.
m. Announcements of meetings of
the various organizations or similar
news notices must be written and sent
to the Morning News before o'clock
of the afternoon preceding the day
publication is dsired. Space for their
publication will then be given very
willingly. The loss of time entailed
and the probability of mistakes when

sary, and hereafter no exceptions will
be made.
Such announcements must be writ

of the New Willard yesterday. that
most of you Americans seem to have
gone daft in the matter of pockets.
The most striking popularity of your
clothes-and the thing which first
caught my eye on landing here-is the
number OF pockets in them. Pockets,
pockets, pockets everywhere! And al
most always something in EN-, too.
What do you do with them all? What
are they all for?"
Mr.. Ridgeway worked for years on
the bench as a journeyman tailor in

few hundred pounds. which he took
with him to South Africa in 1891. He
returned to England last year worth,

his eleven years exile. Just to prove
that he had learned his trade well and
hadn't forgotten it, he cut and made
a suit of clothes for himself the first
week he was back in London. He had

no little pride directed attention to the
fact that in the entire suit there were
only six pockets.
"You see," ne explained, pockets dis
figure a suit just as too many doors
and windows do a house. And, besides,
IL you carry anything in them they are
apt to bulge out and destroy all the
artistic effect OF good clothes. Look at

and something in every one of them. 1

disappointed; for the young pianist's

The vessel having a fine hull, it was
decided that it could be heightened and

ed the Maryland Steel Company, at
Sparrows' Point, and the ship was
locked at the Baltimore Shipbuilding

in the hull.
Many Changes Made.
The lengthening of the hull was not
a fraction of the change made. New

cylinders 26 and Sc inches in diameter
and 4s-inch stroke; a nest of four new
steel boilers, each with two corrugated
furnaces; new fore and mainmasts,
with the former stepped farther aft,
were among the improvements.
In the general reconstruction of the
Merrimac the consideration for pas
senger service was kept in view. The

by the master and officers, was hoisted
