LATEST PARTISAN JEWELRY.
Pendant Of Matt Gold Fashions in
Necklaces. Chains. &c.

Paris Correspondence jewelers. Circular Weekly.
Among jewels of high artistic merit PEN
dants stand pre-eminent. AS an instance
1 will first cite superb pendant of chased
matt gold representing a dragon, whose
outspread wings are beautifully enameled
A large fine pearl is set in the jaws of the
animal, while its undulating tail termi-
mates with a pear-shaped opal Other ex-
quisite and popular designs are also Of
chased matt gold and represent vine
branches whose leaves are enameled In the
proper colors. The grapes are fine pearls.
Necklaces are still to the fore. A beau
tiful necklace, called Duchess" consists Of
eleven rows of fine pearls gathered to-
gether by bands of brilliants. This neck
lace is adorned with clasp ,hickly
studded with diamonds. A charming neck
lace, called "Bayadere," Is composed Of
three rows Of pearls gathered together at
intervals by a larger pearl. This necklace
measuring about 1.55m. In length. is wrap
ped twice around the neck and then tied up
gracefully.
Pocket glasses are extensively shown
One Is a tasty pocket glass Of oxidized sill
yer, whose cover is adorned with a charm
Ing decoration representing a tiny bird
resting upon a spray of flowers: another
has its cover adorned with beautiful bust
of a woman representing "Mignon." These
the long chain.
Apropos of long chains, l must mention
the great attractiveness of those articles
The most popular patterns consist Of thin
links of matt gold, relieved here and there
by pear-shaped turquoses or cabuchon cut
emeralds. Some beautiful and artistic pat
terms are punctuated with motifs repre-
senting flowers treated in the new art style
and are adorned with slides representing
scarabees or other insects thickly studded
with precious stones
Charming chatelaine bags rectangular in
shape, are Of gold mesh with mountings en-
riched with rubies and diamonds.
In the way of desk accessories 1 noticed
many tasteful novelties. AS an example
let me cite paper knives of chased matt
gold or silver, whose handles are studded
with rubies. turquoses or fine pearls
Other effective styles are Of mother Of
pearl with a beautiful handle Of oxidized
silver, adorned with a mimosa branch
handsomely wrought. I noticed also ele-
CANT fiat pencil holders of chased matt
gold silver, adorned with floral deco
rations representing forget-me-not flowers,
four-leafed clovers or lilies, enriched with
precious stones.
In tableware are many new and eXqui-
site vases of pottery or cut crystal, whose
chief characteristics are their odd decora-
ton and their strange shapes. Two new
and charming flower holders are of COL
| ored sand with elegant mountngs of pure
tin.

by many as being cooler than the rubber
treated woods and silks, and there is no de-
nyinS that such models hang better than do
the others. There is a crumpIed and creased
look about the silk garments, as If they
were occasionally used for nightgowns but
this does not detract greatly from their ele-
CANT appearance.
The plain woods in ulster-like cuts are OF
less aristocratic pretensions, but they are
trim, stylish and more reasonable in price.
Three coats, respectively, in plaid checked
and dia gonal woods, are offered al the popu-
lar price of $22 each. A shoulder cape Is
shown by two dealers, that of one oddly
including the front in the cut of this de-
tail. The mCdera tested sleeves OF both are
in coat shape, with square turn-back cuffs.
The high storm collars are made to look as
well down S up.
In number of these less expensive coats
both loose and half fitting, Norfolk belt
ing of the black is a feature, and big pock-
cts set in the sides.
Stylish and Useful.
The rainy-day dress is an innovation In
| storm garments. 1t is a short-skirted, Nor
| folk-coated costume charmingly becoming
to youthful figures. A tailor of reputation
declares that several smart women have
ordered such dresses for walking, in the
usual shower-proof textures. A deliciously
dainty suit is Of gray and black stripe
with only heavy stitching for ornament
and breast and hip patch pocket
Other little rainy-day gowns devised on
somewhat similar lines and shown by this
tailor might be worn at any autumn out
ing for they have a golf or mountain look
Soft alpine hats, plainly banded or swathed
with wells or leather scarfs, were shown
to go with them. Sailor hats of the same
shower cloth as the dress, with patent
leather trimmings, were also seen, as well
as the ordinary black patent leather sail
Ors worn by many hOrsewomen.
But as to the rainy-day hat, any thing
fairly simple and compact may be worn
The main thing necessary is security against
the never weary winds. Enveloping wells
come in smartly for this purpose-chiffon

rubber coat narrow piping of black may
match the velvet collar. and this is thought
to be a smart combination. Another even
ing novelty is in pale blue and white with
Il blue velvet collar ana huge pearl buttons.
Importers declare thaI such cOats-for the
majority Of the models are of French ana
English manufacture-may enve!op the
most fragile evening toilet without injury.
They are copied by domestic makers and
are much cheaper in the home shape than
when imported.
The buttons of all these coats are enor-
nous on the automobile rubbeTs, which
are in a class by themselves, they appear
in white and smoked pearl against rich
reds, blues 2pd browns, and are as big as
butter plates. Save for the buttons, such
coats are untrimmed, for they depend en-
tircly upon a swagger cut for effect They
are double breasted and have high storm
collars, which, when turned up, hold the
face in pointed calyX becoming to a pretty
CUuntenance.
Round gathered or visored caps in the
same material go with many of these auto
mobile coats, or else there is nattached
hood to lift over the hat.

How to Walk.
From the Family Doctor.

From the Family Doctor.
There is no virtue in a dawdling saunter
The slow and languid dragging one foot
after the other, which some people call
walking, would tire an athlete: it utterly
exhausts a weak person, and that Is the
reason why many delicate persons think
they cannot walk. To derive any benefit
from the exercise it is necessary to walk
with a light elastic step, which swings
the weight of the body SO easily from
one leg to the other that it's weight is not
felt. and which produces a healthy glow,
showing that the sluggish blood is stirred
to action in the most remote veins.

ment. the rubber coat is considered fast


On foot.
The shower-proof cloths are thought to
provide the neatest and most practcal
wear and the iron grays long seen are
much approved But the new weaves diner
entirely from the old ones. Instead OF the
former plain surfaces, there are nair
stripes little checks and fancy pla1ds. Inc
buttons of such coats. and of other trim,
neat models, are made of the same ma
terial and are very small. Except In mod
est trio upon the sleeve, perhaps, they are
often not seen at all, for a number of the
singled breasted coats close with fly fronts.
Dashing Model.
A new and dashing model on this order is
the usual loose sacque, cut with the yoke
and upper part of sleeves in one. To the
long shoulder caps thus formed big puffs
are stitched. the Tapped seam which at
taches them proving quite ornamental
around the arm. The design has a slot
seam at the back, fitting it slightly into the
figure. The coat is silk lined to the waist,
and some of the sleeves are provided with
silk under ones, whose draw strings hold
them close about the wrist.
The price of such a coat Is $40, Whch
does not seem dear when you find out that
number of the pale evening ones go up as
high as $75. A similar price Is asked for
the elegant automobile rubber coats, but
smart models can be had for $40. The usual
fine rain coat is made to order. the loose
styles needing the most careful cutting ana
fitting to produce the right effect.

of applause and shouting that woke to life
the echoes in the neighborhood that have

National League team occupied the 7th

several minutes, and. all through the re-

for the Senators seemed next to impossible,
the rooters continued loyal and supported

about 600 persons were crowded from the
bottom row of seats to the top, while many
interested spectators stoed in the rear of
the seats and along the side aisles. In
fact, 1t was found necessary to admit
part of the crowd upon the field just inside
the fence, so great was the demand for adj
mission to the game. In addition to the
crowd in the grand stand and bieachers
watched the contest from the roofs and up

hood and the branches of the trees just
outside the park were black with the ire
pressible small boy, who was not to be de-
priyed merely for the lack of the admis-

events of the year to him-the opening

Enthusiasm on Every Side.
Not only was the crowd notable for its
size, but also for its display of enthusiasm
There was no occasionsyesterday afternoon
for doubling the loyalty of the Washington
fans in behalf of the local team. From the
moment the crowd began filing into the
grand stand and bleachers the cheering
commenced. All during the practice of the
teams and while the seats were being filled
with spectators the shouting continued, and
the cheers of the enthusiasts mingled with
the music of the band and with the noise
of the squad of rooters equipped with the
ear-splitting tin horn.
The practice of the players of both teams,
and particularly that of the Senators, was
watched with great interest The crowd
