PARTY FRoCKs.

The Victorian styles this winter give
one every chance for pretty simple party
gowns. Every variety of material can
flottant, sleeves elbow or short and a
waist full and at least a little low in
the neck, you are fashionably dressed for
dance or opera or evening reception.
When the full skirt came In vogue only
soft clinging materials We're used. SO that
certain effect of graceful outline could
be preserved. At the start girl saw or
felt that she was losing all personality in
a nine yard wide skirt. From skirts fit
ted down to the ankles to crinolines was
not to be accomplished in a day
But now that the full skirts are sue
cess and wired petticoats and even an oc-
casional hoop-skirt, no one bothers any
more about a skirt looking bulky. Huge
skirts are grande mode and velvet as
good style as chiffon or crepe. Even plush
is worn and fur trimming In puffs, If
you can imagine anything SO absurd.
More soft than stiff yelvets are worn,
but only because they are fashionable.
Grace isn't considered. and the new vel
vets and pushes are lovely. The velvets
for evening wear are chiffon velvet,
Louisine velvet, gauze velvet and zibiline
velvet. Then there are chiffon taffetas and
ribed taffeta and all the new raw silk,
rajah burlingam, keno and Shanghai, as
well as crepe de chine, plain and figured,
and silk illusion and silk mulls
For economical frocks there are really
beautiful stuffs, beautiful In material, de-
signs and colors. The Louisine silks and
crepes are all less than a dollar a yard,
In white, ivory and the most exquisite
pastel shades, especially in all the new
pinks from dawn" to water lily and
pink is the most fashionable tint for all
evening frocks this winter.
Strange to say brocades and damasse
and broche effects, though very much the
mode In silk and satins, are not expensive.
Some tints can be had as low as So cents
and white brocade and white China silk
as cheap as SO cents.
II you attend sales sometimes you can
pick I'D chiffon-velvet In remnants as low
as dollar a yard and 1t Will look fresh
for fully three seasons. And of thin stuffs
there are no end. SILK null and point
desprit at As cents a yard Powered satin
and silk maline at the same. White net
cheaner. creme de chine sometimes at 45
cents, and batiste and organdie. which
are very fashionable, for half the price
of the cheapest silk.
And the question Of trimming Is really
no expense at all. Puffs of the same
material put on in Greek borders or bow
knots or in lovers knots or in any geo.
metrical design are the height of style,
narrow on the waist and two inches wide
on the skirt or chiffon is tuffed on vel
vet or silk on thin stuffs. 1t is stylish in
a quaint way and easy to do.
With the present fashion : 1t is the

no protection and bristled with the most
devilish obstacles in the shape Oh pits
and barbed wire entanglements, Just as

gave some slight opportunity, snch as II
was, to the attacking force 1t Is ques-
tionable il 1t would not have been better
for the assailants to have concentrated
their efforts on points even so lar IA
vorabe As 1t was, battalions were seen
to advance to certain destruction, leaving
the little khaki clad figures strewn be-
hind In their track like potatoes falling

The self-sacrihclng valor of the Japanese
is Enthusiastically a great temptation 10
their commanders to play more DASH
ing, forward and risky game than II they
were handling soldiers who would not
stand more than a 10 or Is per cent pun
ishment The Japanese formation for the
attack is also held by many to be too
close, although 1t Is now generally ad-
mitted by military authorities that the
ideal formation for attack need not and
should not be extended, as was ours in
South Africa.
The Japanese officers themselves were
warmest in their praise of the obstinate
bravery of their opponents, and never did
hear of any instance of cowardice ex-
cept in the case of few Polish Jews,
who purposely allowed themselves to be
taken prisoners. and admitted that they
had no wish or inclination to fight for
Russia, and only did SO because they
were compelled
thing that did not fail to strike every
one was the marvellous physical training
Of the Japanese and their wonderful en-
durance. They had very much more work
IN do than the Russians intrenched, and
during all these days the heat was ter
rible, and the ground over which they
fought was very bad. An unsurpassed
quality of the Japanese Is their supreme
valor. Their poets are fond of likening
Japanese bravery to the cherry blossoms
blown by the sunny breeze. I know one
thing; their valor has torn our military
textbooks to shreds and tossed their
leaves to the winds.

Suppose you have light colored silk

Defence Works Excellent.


When, Immediately after the evacua-
ton of the positions at Lao Yang, Gem
eral Oku led the attaches and CORES
pondents around to examine them, every
one was filled with admiration for the
thoroughness and excellence of the Rus
sian defence works. All the latest devices
known to modern military science were
there to be seen. The ample time that
the Russians had to prepare them was
evident in various things. For instance,
In the lines of pits about ten feet wide
and about nine feet deep, high grass had
grown on the sides and bottoms, so as
partly to screen them, especially in the
case Of men rushing forward under fire;
in fact, one of the attaches had a very
narrow escape of falling into one on top
of the pointed stakes and barbed wire
below. Then the miles of barbed wire en-
tanglements were well placed and firmly
secured.
1t was the universal opinion that these
positions Immediately outside Lao Yang
should never have been taken by assault.
That they were evacuated was clearly the
result of Olku's enveloping movement
threatening Kuropatkin's right flank. He
evidently anticipated Kuroks menacing
his left, because here he was prepared
and the Russian defences were much
stronger but 1t was the less expected
and successful movement or Okus left
that was the immediate cause Of his re-
treat.
Although the Japanese are naturally
very silent and uncommunicative on the
subject / have no doubt, whatever in my
own mind that they are greatly disap-
pointed with the achievements Of Kuroki 8
army
The steadiness and order of the Rus
sian retreat were apparent to every one;
train after train could be seen leaving the
station in rapid succession; their pontoon
bridge across the river was taken up and
carried off.
In the thanking movement OF Okus left
which I consider was the decisive touch
that turned the scale and caused the Rus
slams to retire, the Japanese advanced
through high screen of kowliang into
which the Russians poured tremendous
rife fire, as was shown by the piles of
thousands of cartridge cases they left
after them.
As regards the Japanese frontal attacks.
1t is questionable II there was not a great
and unnecessary loss of life in the way
they were delivered.
