most prominently. This is true of
any other color, and in a measure ac-
counts for the remarkable. way in
which these rugs seem to adjust them
selves to all SURROUNDINGS The house
holder should, therefore, acquire an
Oriental rug whenever possible, and
not be deferred by the feeling that it
is too handsome for the simplest SIR
roundings.
1t is unwise to buy these rugs with
out knowing something of them.
There are so many good handbooks
now to- be had that rug lore" is
within the range of most people In
all cities of any size, and in many
>of the smaller towns, auction sales
of these rugs are held annually or
semi annually by some thrifty Armen-
ian or travelling Turk. Attending these
sales and visiting the rug-importing
houses in large cities are excellent
ways to cultivate knowledge of these
fascinating creations of Oriental art.
1t is usual, in speaking of Oriental
rugs, to apply the general term "an-
tique" to them. This is largely a mis-
homer. There are comparatively few
real antiques upon the market to-day,
and the amateur enthusiast, who tries
to prove real antiquity for his newly
acquired Royal KAYAK, Sarabund or

Cashmere rugs. Old red, dull blue,
ivory and orange are its colors.
This rug could be properly used in
almost any room, and would tone well
with walls of dull blue, Indian red,
yellow or green. Few color combina-
tons are impossible with it. The rug
shown on the right is known as bou-
doir rug. 1t is of the same weave as
the Brussels, but is made from cot
ton instead of wool. These rugs are
offered for the first time this year.
They show clear green on white, blue
on white, and red on white effects.
They are said z to clean readily and
wear well, and they come in various
sizes, the largest being oxI2 and cost

The fibre mating rugs are recon-
mended for mountain cabins, seaside
cottages, or any place where rough
wear is likely. Some of these rugs
have strong colors and pronounced
Indian designs; others show a quiet

and actual holes, shows himself to Be
an amateur indeed. So devious are
the methods by which our rugs are
faded, rotted and frayed that it would
require much time and space to speak
of them. No veritable antique is al
lowed to reach a state of ravelled
edges or gaping rents. it is much too
valuable. The real Oriental rug, aside
from its age, is a. most desirable pos
session. 1t is hand-woven; and the
finer ones are of exquisitely soft col
ors and wonderful designs.
Much of the patient, painstaking
weaving in Asia is still producing the
patterns and qualities of the rugs
made in the days before Christ. And
by some peculiar gift, the people of
Turkey, Persia and India are the only
ones in the world who can weave
them in their fullest beauty. An ac-
cepted authority on all matters per-
tanning to these rugs gives this excel
lent advice:
"On the whole, the wisest course in
selecting Oriental rugs for all save
the most opulent buyer-the collector
is to abandon the rather useless
search for genuine antiques and pur-
chase fabrics, confessedly new, but
which conform infinitely to the high
est standards; which have in the
weaving the requisite number of knots

Of Indian rugs, the Kis-Khelin is
the one ordinarily sought. 1t is not
a heavy weave and is chiefly used for
couch covers and hangings. Great
care should be taken in choosing these
rugs Those of soft dull tones are
far preferable to those more highly
colored, and in the former the pur-
chaser is sure of securing a rug in
which vegetable dyes are used and
which will stand washing. The Ana
tolian rugs are of splendid strength
and thickness and show beautiful COM

shown in plain color forms the centre,
with kind of pointed arch at one
end. On this the devout worshipper
kneels and strikes his head upon the
ground covered by the arch in the
pattern. This design is seen in
variety of other rugs.
Daghestan, Or camel's hair, and a
Khiva Bokhara, or an Iran, are among
the weaves most to be desired as
beginning in purchasing. The Daghe-
stan always shows mosaic or jew
eled design. The Khiva Bokharas are
made in moderately large sizes. The
field is always a rich, deep crimson,

by these rare old pieces. While the
effect is rich and beautiful, it is by
no means necessary to live up so
completely to the character of the
fine rugs. Oftentimes when only one
Turkish or Persian rug is used in a
room it is so placed as to lose Moth
ing in beauty or richness by reason
of less costly surroundings But it is
not good plan to-. use imitation
Oriental rugs and the real article in
the same room Where there is even
one Oriental rug, so much must be
conceded to it. If the floor is bare,
one or two rugs of plain color or two
toned Brussels can be used. A black
fur rug is. always acceptable, as it,
allows the figures and colors of the
Oriental article to claim full attention.

Still another cotton rug is shown
this season. 1t is called the fermosa.
It shows Indian patterns, blue and
white and green and white coloring,
and costs about the same as the bou-
doir rug, but is much lighter in weight
and less likely to wear well. although
the colors and designs are pleasing.

The woman whose figure is no
longer slender should avoid quantities
of stirring, but if she must indulge
her fancy in this direction. there is
fan-model skirt which will give her
some leeway. Between each of the
seven cores, just below the hip, a
slirred piece is inset, starting at pin
point width and widening gradually
until it reaches the knee, where it
is perhaps two inches and half wide.
From this point the skirt flares out
broadly, giving almost the effect of
flounce. There are about ten or twelve
shirrings between the hip and the
knee, each finished with fancy tail
ored stitch. No other trimming IS
used on the skirt. and it is one of the
most graceful effects seen this sea
son.

TIDE SETS TOWARD WEST
BY W. G. NICHOLAS.

New York, April 2S.-Further details of the Rockefeller Hartman plan for divid- ing James J. Hills railroad raiment are h circulation in banking quarters. For the moment MT. Hill seems to have gained d tactical advantage in his fight for the possession of his own, but the belief gains ground that his enemies will not desist from their attempts to overthrow his power until they have accomplished their purpose. The theory finds we'll advised lodgment that the Rockefeller Hartman desire is to parcel the properties of the Northern Securities Company that St. Paul will get the Northern Pacific and that Hartman will be given the Chicago Burlington & Quincy for annexation to the Union Pacific.
 St. Paul has been credited for years with an intention of reaching out to the Pacific coast. The acquisition of tho Northern Pacific would give it this line and in every way strengthen the com pany The Rockefelers have long been in control of the St. Paul road and have nourished a purpose to reach western tide-water If they can do it by the pur-
 
 construction they would much prefer to do so, and the scheme to grab the North ern Pacific is one to fascinate them. The Standard oil crowd is already largely in" terested in North Western and divides control of that system with the Wander bilts. This insures harmonious relations in the Northwest up to Hills Great Northern territory.
 There is many a slip between the cup and the lip, however, and 1t is within the range of possibility that the Rockefeller Hartman plot may mis-carry. The sinews of war are at their command however, to an unlimited amount in the carrying out of the deal. In the struggle for railroad supremacy as in war between nations success usually goes to those in command of the heaviest battalions. Powerful as he is MT. Hill is no match for the combined treasure of the Kero- sene multl-millonaires and their allies

Interest in Coachino.

This year there is an increased inter-
 est in the magnificent sport of coaching. and several dozen people who have hither- to taken no interest whatsoever in the pastime are coming out and making plans Indications point to any number of public and private coaches being euiin- ped this spring, and those with coaching procliyities will have ample opportunity to satisfy inclinations in that direction.
 ne new coach to be tooled between the
 Waldorf-Astoria and Morris park during the spring meeting at the Westchester track is private enterprise, and the road coach to be used will be sent from
 boston. Those principally interested in the venture are members of two of the larger dancing classes, and the plan was to ask patronesses of the dances to chaperon the coaching trips. but as many or these matrcns intend to be out of town nothing has been settled in that erection. This plan is something new even to New York, and the prospect of chaDeroning under such delightful condi- tions ought to produce a surfeit of mat rons eligible for the task. With the con- ing of coaching days old coaching tradi- tons and customs are being studied and revived. The correct detail of coach eouip- ment. harness. livery and costume are regarded with reverence. The expert coachman-for the old word whip has age much to be envied, and so is the girl fortunate enough to be invited to occupy the box seat with him. In the case of married men the post of honor is sup posed to go to their wives, but forttn- atey we have James Hazen Hyde Rob ert Livingston Gerry, Harry Bull, James henry Smith and other bachelors.

Belmont Is Modest.

Mr. August Belmont is said not to enjoy the notoriety which has recently come to him by reason of his sponsorship of the Parker presidential boom. It was all right until the mud batteries Of abuse were turned on him and he was dragged out into the full glare of the lime light. It gave him great satisfaction to be the power behind the throne and to direct operations from comparative seclusion. It was quite another thing, however, Q be held up to the public gaze as the back hone of the transportation trust or Greater New York and to be accused or selfish motives in organizing and en- cheering the Parker candidacy. MT. Bel mont is understood to have financed the Parker boom without outside help down to data and to have expended thereon a large sum of money He has conducted an energetic literary bureau, more expen sive even than that under the Hearst di- rection. He is said to be much disturbed, however, by the turn affairs are taking and the advertisement he is himself re- ceiving although he- shows no signs or relinouishing control of the political ma chinery Ee has been building up.
 The Parker endorsement given by the democratic state convention or New fofk is yariously commented upon in Wall Street. The startoff does not appear to have been altogether satisfactory to those who had been, and are, Judge Par ker's warmest friends and admirers. The discordant note introduced into the proceedings by Tammany arouses fear that he will be slaughtered by that organization if he should receive the at St Louis. The combined and all the political bush wackers of democracy are concentrating their fire upon him and the vigor and intensity of the onslaughe is disconcert inc
