The accompanying Illustration is of
one OF the daintiest evening gowns
seen this winter.
1t is made of a beautiful light rose
pink chiffon over the same color taft
feta foundation. The taffeta skirt is
tight-fitting nearly TO the knees and
is then joined to a shaped f1ounce en-
tirely covered by little ruffies which
again are yelled by one deep flounce
of pink chiffon. This is a new man
ner of finishing a foundation skirt and
is most successful in holding out the
dress skirt at the bottom
The chiffon skirt is -shirred to the
belt and is inset around the hips by
band of rich cream colored lace to
which the chiffon is Joined by three
shirrings, forming tiny ruches. This
shirring is repeated at the lower edge
OF the lace insertion and in like man

encircle the skirt lower down. Fin

GOSSIP FROM GOTHAM.

Floating from the broad door of the
home of Luther KOuntZe, at No. 5 East
Fifty seventh street, is a streamer Of
white Grape, tied with bunch of lilies
Of the valley. All yesterday carriages
rolled up and folk condoled with the
KountZes on account of the death Of
their daughter, Mrs. Robert L. Living
ston. She had died soon after an oper-
ation-indeed, she scarcely had rallied
from the effects of the ether. Robert l..
Livingston married the daughter of the
German banker on Dec. 81, 1902 Mrs.
KOuntZe, who had been mourning for a
faVorite son, cast aside her grape and
the Grace church cerenony was elabo-
rate. MF. KountZe gave a villa in Nor
ristown to the couple, who figured also in
the Tuxedo set. The death of Mrs. Iliv-
1ngston will have far-reaching effect
on society, and will cast a deep shadow
over the wedding of Mrs. LiVingston's
brother and Miss Martha Johnston. of
Macon. The Kountze- Johnston we'd
ding, which will take place soon after
Easter, will be Of the most private ma
ture. The bride to =be of DeIancey
kountze is a cousin of Mrs. Cornelius
Vanderbilt, Mrs. Ogden Goelet and
Lady Herbert. Mrs. Robert L. Living
ston was slight and dark, and looked
like schoolgirl rather than a matron
she was twenty-three years old.
Mrs. Arthur Paget's ability to ioin a.
half dozen different sets when she visits
New York is remarkable. She permits
herself to be entertained by both FASH
lonables and outsiders. Yet the daugh-
ter OF Mrs. Paran Stevens feels so Sc
cure of her own position that she thinks
nothing Of parading her questionable
friends. to the joy of the paraded. one

the proper legal forms, and this prov
ed a great success. AS there is no de-
batting society in the college, the need
of some opportunity for practice in de-
bate in public speakihgtis felt. Prof.
Clarence D. Ashley, dean of the law
school of New York university, who
organized and still conducts the classes
in law at Bryn Mawr college, has been
much pleased with the result of his
experiment in training women in law,
and has, in a recent number of Harper's
Weekly, expressed his opinion that the
Bryn Mawr courses in law have proved
an unqualified success.
The members Of a leap year club"
that was formed a month ago by a
dozen maids of Dubuque, Iowa. are
working hard to fulfill the require
ments of the club. The constitution de-
mands that by the first of next year
all the girls must have united their
fortunes with those Of the sterner sex.
Any member who is unmarried at that
time will be ostracised by the club, and
the others will not even speak to her
on the street. One of the girls, 1t is
said, has already offered herself to a
young Iowan and received a favorable
answer. Her mind, of course, is at
peace now,

affair." trimmed around the neck with
one insertion of lace, edged with the
chiffon ruches, and the short sleeves
are made of ruffles Of the embroid-
cred chiffon.
This model might be duplicated in
some of the lovely silk mIlls or other
thin summer materials.
Wells promise to play as important
part of the spring and summer
costume as they did last year Among
the newest colored chiffon wells are
those with hens, an inch and a half
wide, of white chiffon. On dark color
ed wells this style is not very pretty,
but on the pale blue, pink and other
delicately tinted wells which are worn
mostly in a decorative way as a frame
or background to the face, it is a
charming addition.
The correct way of wearing a long
chiffon veil is to pin it loosely but
securely about the crown of the hat,
allowing the ends to hang down the
back and then throw the front edge
back over the brim in an apparently
careless way.

PRINCE AND PRINCESS WED.
Four Professions for Alexander of Teck
and Alice of Albany.

LONDON, Feb. 10.-Prince Alex
ander of Teck and Princess Alice of
Albany We're married today at st.
Georges chapel, Windsor castle, where
Queen Victoria was married on the
same date in 1910. The archbishop of
Canterbury, assisted by other clergy,
oft1ciated, and King Edward, himself,
gave away the bride There were more
than four distinct professions to the
chapel, namely, the queen of @Wuftem-
burg, that OF Queen Emma, of the
Netherlands, the procession of King
Edward and Queen Alexandria and
that of the bride.
There was a brilliant assemblage of
members of the royal families, foreign
princes, peers, peeresses, ministers,
diplomats and other distinguished per-
sonages, the men all in court or leyee
dress or uniforms, and the. women in
evening dress. The display of Jewels
was magnificent. There were FIVE royal
bridesmaids, all cousins of the bride.
The Seventh Hussars, the bridegroom's
regiment, lined the nave A luncheon
was given subsequently in the state
dining room at Windsor Castle
The only special incident was the ar
rest of an alleged lunatic, Furnishing a
sword stick, who molested the guests
arriving from London. Windsor was
decorated with flags and filled with ex-
cursionists.

the Lloyd Warren Oriental ball was
responsible for the fad. There were
three professional photographers In
Mr.. Warrens house and they Snap
ped" any guests who wished his or her
fancy costume perpetuated. Mrs. Har-
ry Payne Whitney gave dinner pre-
ceding this ball, and again a photog-
careful that such negatives never find
their way to the public gaze. Mrs.
Pembroke Jones, who converted Sher-
rvs into bit of Versailles last week.
had her decorations photographed. This
was justified, as her dance. was the
most elaborate and original of any this
winter.
AS an epilogue to dinner, music has
succeeded bridge" Almost every din
ner in the money-spending set is fol-
lowed by songs from Gilbert, Heathe-
Gregory or some other maker of mel
ody. Caruso, whose golden voice de-
mands a big check, has sung only sell
dom. Many singers of Indifferent abil-
ity earn large sums singing as an &C
compartment to the coffee. Often their
voices would not entitle them to a
place In Conreid's chorus. A hostess
in the sixties varied the monotony by
having child prodigy on hand. This
young miss was highly versatile. She
pounded Chopin's Funeral March" on
the piano, sang "Tannhauser" music
after fashion and finished the pro-
gramme with The Miller's Daughter"
Nor was that all She 'jollied" ten
men guests to their hearts content. and
wound up by whistling "Bedelia."
One Of the prettiest young women in
New York is Miss Ethel Croker, the
SiXteen-year daughter of Richard
Croker. Miss Croker is often to be seen
In the Madison avenue cars travelling
to and from her mothers home in No.
East Seventyfourth street Mrs.
Croker lives in strict retirement and is
known to only few New Workers. Oc-
casionally she goes to Lakewood for 81
few days, and folk express surprise at
the existence of a Mrs. Croker. Miss
Ethel goes to one of the most fashion,
able girl schools in the city and Is max
ing friends who will be valuable to her
when she comes out" She is devoted
to her brother Frank and, like him, she
takes an interest in dogs and horses
