turn out taffetas that. in considerable
measure, bow to the dictum of Dame
Fashion, the best houses are making a
number of fine models in taffeta.
For the new idea in trimming the
bodice of any costume is as though a
lace fichu were tied around the form
just below the shoulders, so that the
sleeve itself really commences several
inches below the shoulder.
Trimmed the skirt must be. In its
simplest form this skirt trimming con-
sists Of these wide horizontal tucks
from the knee down, which has been
known during the last winter season
as the jupe religieuse or nuns skirt.
| Then there are the double skirts, the
upper one reaching to the knee, and
falling in quite severe lines over the
underskirt. which partakes of the same
character as the upper one both as to
trimming and cut.
In the soft satin liberty and crepe de
chine are noted some interesting in
novations with regard to skirt trim
ming. These have the narrow, gradu-
ated panel front, edged with a quill
ing or ruching of the same material or
lace. The rest Of the skirt is laid in
the nuns folds, or trimmed with lace
medallions surrounded by interlacing
of ruchings.
Still another method of trimming in
vogue. especially in the light cloth
! skirts, is the skirt top, giving yoke
effect that is very pleasing and attrac-
tive.
The predominating idea as regards
sleeves is ruffles. The top of the sleeve
continues to be fiat. The sleeve may
be composed of series of ruffles, or it
may be only the rufile from just below
the elbow and reaching to the wrist.
And this ruffled style for the sleeve Is
not confined alone to the costume made
of soft fabrics, but is we'll expressed
in simple gown.
The poke hat with strings is the
natural and artistic accompaniment of
the 1890 fashions. 1t is extreme style
and a trifle too eccentric unless sub
jected to decided modification for any
! considerable acceptance in this coun-
try. 1t is very bewltching to see a
woman with a big white hat trimmed
| with pink roses and tied with pink rib
bons. but the American woman, as a
rule. prefers to see the other woman
| wearing such aA.consp1cuous article

Wonderful Things Related Of m
Italian Invention Which May
Revolutionize Warfare.

The world is at present intensely In.
terested in new Italian bulletproof
cloth, and since the Italian govern
ment Is negotiating for its use it is
OF Importance that we see just what
the results are, although it is neces-
sary to state that the invention re-
mains secret, ana this notwithstand-
ing attempts to discover its details.
Thus we shall have to deal with gem

OF experiments.
being capable of adaptation to any
form whatever; for example, breast
plate with a collar or sort of coat
which completely envelops the wear
er and absolutely guarantees him from
gunshot wounds. The thickness of the
protector varies from one-sixteenth to
seyen-sixteenths of an inch. according
to the arm the effects of which it is
designed to destroy. Against the
armor of -sixteenths of an inch
the regular ordnance revolver with
steel covered ball is powerless, and
also the gun of the 1891 model charged
with smokeless powder. In the numer-
GUS experiments which have been
made-in firing at a distance of sew
eral yards-the ball, whether it be OF
lead or steel, when it strikes the pro-
tector is arrested and deformed, in
| some cases rebounding and in others
being almost reduced to a pulp. Thus
there is not only an arrest of the ball,
but reformation as we'll, and in this
reformation the force of the ball is
converted. While there should be a.
high degree of temperature at the
point touched by the ball. it seems
that the ball alone feels the effects. for
the protector does not seem to be
burnt in the slightest.
These results are not limited 10
ballistic effects, for in the recent ex-
periments it was sought to pierce the
armor with dagger driven with all
| possible force. The point Of the arm,
however. could not penetrate the felt
and was bent into shapeless mass.
1t Is natural to suppose that tha
force of the ball would be communi-
Gated to the armor and that this
would be driven violently backward,
resulting in a disagreeable shock and
one which at times would be danger
Gus to the wearer To demonstrate
the incorrectness of this view Signof
Benedict attached his protector to a
horse and fred upon the animal only
six feet away with an ordnance re-
volyer, the ball falling at the feet OF
the horse while, he, freed from his
halter, walked away as ii nothing had

been previously pierced. The same ex-
pertinent was made with chicken

dock and drain OFF the water so as to
expose the hull completely. The next
would be to pull out the pins or to drive
out the keys from their seats. For this
purpose mallets would probably suffice
Finally, it would be necessary to detach
the hub of the screw from the shaft by
exerting pressure in such way as to
make it slip along the latter. If this
shaft had only slight taper, of course
only little movement in the right di-
rection would serve the purpose, but
the force requisite to start the hub
would be great
A passing allusion to the hydraulic
apparatus for performing this service is
made in Casters Magazine, which also
supplies the illustration here repro
duced. Though no explanation is sup
piled, one can readily conjecture how
the device is used. The bolts which con-
meet the four segments of circle should
be relaxed and one of the joints opened
sufficiently to allow the machine to be
slipped past the screw, so as to embrace
the shaft at a point just back of the
propeller. By chain and suitable
tackle the whole mechanism would be
temporarily suspended at the stern of
the ship from the deck while these op-
erations are going on. The press once
being loosely in position right behind
the hab of the screw. it should be tight
ened about the shaft by proper ad-
justment of the bolts at the four joints.
The thing will not work unless perfect
grip has been obtained.
To understand the final procedure one
should take it for granted that the four
segments are hollow. Water, having
been forced into one of them, quickly
distributes itself by the coiled pipes that
connect it with the other three Thus
the pressure is equal in all. The two
light colored, bean-shaped areas on each
segment represent plates which can be
made to move away from the surface of
the segment by pressure within. These
eight plates would bear against the huh
of the screw with equal strength and
slowly push the latter from it's original
position.

Points on Spring Modes

evidences Of the coming spring. There
are enough Of these to give one an op-

the new season will bring, though in a

The 1880 and Second empire modes
are more and more accented by the

Two Hundred Mile. nm Honr.

Some interesting experiments have
been carried out with new mono
rail system devised by French engi-
neer, M. Devic. The inventor has
built a model upon the scale of one
tenth of what the actual train is to
be. and with this train he has attained
a speed Of 10 miles an hour. The
train is to be propelled by electric
power, and in order that high speed
may be attained the inventor relies
upon two factors-diminution of
weight and a more effective grlEp;ps
of the drive wheels upon the single
track of the railroad. He claims to
have designed rail which will afford
the wheels sufficient grip, irrespective
of the weight which they are carrying.
Further experiments are to be carried
out with much larger model at
Nemours to prove the utility and adj
vantage of the system NJ. Devic is
sanguine of attaining speed of 200
miles an hour.

+rhe Death nell of w ill sound the
the Ieamsters. death knell of the
strong organization of teamsters that
has held the business interests of the
city within its grasp for the past four or
i've years.
Some years ago. during the operations
of the boodling aldermen, there was
passed in the city council an ordinance
giving an unknown company the right
to construct tunnels under every street
and alley within the city limits. Like
many franchise voted by the Chicago
city fathers, nothing more was heard
Of it until some three years ago, when
excavations were begun in quiet way
In the rear of Alderman Powers saloon.
One after another little galvanized iron
sheds, about three by six feet square,
were erected at various places through
out the business district, and the public
wondered what they were. Finally
came the public announcement that the
city had been undermined by system
of tunnels. 20 miles of them, cut 40 feet
under the surface of the streets.
The tunnels are there. every mile
claimed. and through them are rushing
small electric cars at maximum rate
OF 40 miles an hour. They connect with
practically every wholesale and retail
store of any Importance in the down
town district. with every railroad and
steamship depot. and through them it
IS expected that 80 per cent. of the out
going and incoming freight of the bust
>ness district will be hauled at less ex-
pense than is possible with the present
methods of teams.

the shade required in this chiffon, or,
indeed in any lace, silk or other fabric,
one has but to send goods and sam
pie of the desired color to reputable
dyer. There was never a time when
so much special dyeing was ordered by
the dressmakers, and the satisfactory
results are tribute to the skill of the
modern dyers.
Handwork of any and of every kind
is lavished upon these dressy blouses.
Fagoting, embroidery, tucking, shir-
ring, shocking, inset lace designs, all
play their part, and the ubiquitous
bouillonee figures as conspicuously
here as elsewhere in the new modes.
While the details offer great variety,
the general lines of the blouse are
trile monotonous.
If, as is true in the majority of cases,
a blouse must be fitted for wear under
|>a coat, the deep berthe and other
shoulder draperies are out of the ques-
ton. Most attractive blouses owning
such features are offered, and for house
wear are charming enough; but once
CFduueu lulO even all ample COIL
sleeve, they lose their freshness.
The long shoulder line must be
achieved in some fashion, SO the blouse
maker resorts to deep yoke Of lace
or handwork running down low over
the shoulders and cut round, pointed
front and back, or shaped irregularly.
! The juncture of yoke and blouse and
sleeves is hidden by trimming, and the
full sleeves have cuffs corresponding to
the yoke.
AS has been said before, this yoke
blouse varies widely in detail. The
yoke may be entirely Of narrow bias
bands and fagotings and inset medal
lions or circles filled with lace stitches,
and the same open work may reappear
upon the body of the blouse
Or, more easily made, and very fash
ionable at the moment, is the yoke of
all-over lace on which are set scroll
patterns in the narrowest of bouillo-
nees, a wider bouillonee or possibly
one in the same width covering the
union between yoke and blouse.
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1904-03-09

Talk as We will the separate blouse
is with us to stay. 1t passes through
many changes, and the modistes have
done all in their power at different
times to drive it from the realm of
possibility of the well-dressed woman,
but without success.
The latest vogue in connection with
blouses is to have them match the skirt
in color, and many made along this
line will be seen during the spring and
summer.
Handsome white blouses are, to be
sure, still worn with skirts of various
colors and are so useful that women
are loath to give them up, but they are
no longer considered distinctly smart
unless worn with a white skirt
The same thing may be said Of the
delicate blue, pink, yellow and cham
payne colored blouses which, in ex-
travagantly elaborate form, appear in
the shop windows. They are charming.
and worn with a skirt to match they
would be most desirable for house
wear; but worn with skirts to which
they have no definite relation they are
not according to the latest laws of
fashion.
They are very suggestive, however.
these exquisite blouses, and if they do
not happen to fill the want left by ones
coat and skirt costume, they may at
least give one the idea for blouses that
may be made in the right colors and
materials.
Chiffon, mousseline, lace and all the
new silks are called into service by the
blouse makers. Chiffon velvet and the
very fine cloths, such as drap ideal
which is hardly heavier than silk, are
also used for handsome blouses but
naturally enough, are not so much in
demand for spring and summer wear
as they have been throughout the win
ter.
The heavy grades of chiffon, known
as chiffon cloths, are excellent blouse
materials, for, though comparatively
light and sheer. they are really dura-
