Snken Gown Supreme.

The silken gown reigns supreme for
almost all occasions; but for the for
NAL gown-for visiting, dinner and
reception purposes-there is absolute
ly nothing which can take its place.
And the way in which the real laces,
those of bold and well.raiscd designs,
are used to supplement- the richness
OF the silk, is not by any means the
least of their attractions. A recent
gown shows the q radium satin
messaline-a white shot with faint
yellow, pale pink and hint of mauve
in different lights-combined with a
heavy mesh pointe Arabc in the new
yellOwish tint which blends sc softly
with white. The corsage, which fas-
tens in the back, is of the lace with
an overlaid yoke Of the radium satin.
this likewise furnishing the very full
puff sleeve. which is met at the elbow
by a lace cuff. The present fancy for
panel effects Is seer In the front de-
sign of lace. where the panel Is split
to admit the tiny yoke Of satin. The

of citizens wore crepe for thirty days.
Services commemorative Of Hamil-
ton were held all over the country.
Scores of Orations were delivered
upon his character, and It was truly
said that not since the death of Wash
irgton had such universal mourning
been seen.
William p. Van Ness, who later be-
came judge of the Southern district
of New York, by appointment of Pres
ident Madison, acted as Burr's sec
ond. and he afterward published a de-
tailed statement of the duel, in which
he claimed that Hamilton fred first.
His statement was really a protest
against the widespread disapproval
of Burr, amounting to ostracism.
Burr himself was amazed at the
opprobrium heaped upon him. Never
before had the popular Ill will been
so ~denunciatory for the surviving
duelist. Burr himself had fought a
duel on the same spot in 1893 with
John b. Church. Neither was injured,
although Burr received a bullet
through his coat.
For a few days Burr continued 10
60 about his business In his usual
way and received his friends at his
famous home, Richmond Hill, now
totally obliterated. but which stood
for years at about the junction OF
Varick and Charlton streets, New
York. Finally he left the city.
Burr was indicted for the murder
of Hamilton. but the indictment was
quashed about three years later.
The pistols with which the fatal
duel was fought are now owned b.

Maj. Richard Church OF Rochester.
He is a grandson OF John b. Church,
to whose house the body OF Hamilton
was taken from Mr.. Bayard's home in
Greenwich village.
The history os the pistols is inter

in London, and 1t Is said they were
made by a celebrated gunsmith. w.

were used again. After the duel they

family ever since.
When the railroad was cut through
in the early seventies the last vestige
OF the old dueling ground was obit-
Grated. A large red sandstone boul-
der had up to that time stood near
| the spot, and 1t was said that upon
this boulder the head OF Hamilton
rested after he was shot. This origi-
nal boulder may still be seen in the
| little Enclosure on the high clin, over
100 feet above the old fighting place.
Efforts have from time to time
been made to erect a suitable monu-
ment near the site to Hamilton, but
nothing except a very modest monu-
ment stands there to-day. A small
| semi.circular plat of ground has beer
set apart in the locality now known
as Highwood. and which may be
reached in about ten minutes from
the ferry landing at Weehawken. and

OF the duel.

was rowed at once across me river
and taken 10 the spacious home of
William Bayard, in old Greenwich vii
lage, where he died about ? o'clock
on the following day, July IL, 1904.
The prominence OF the combatants
and the tragic ending of the meeting
directed public attention not only to
this duel, but to dueling in general,
as had never been done before In the
United States. The practice was
common a century ago. Alexander
Hamilton's eldest son, a young man
but 20 years of age, was killed upon
the same field three years before his
father received his death wound.
The pulpit and, to some extent, the
press inveished against the custom as
unworthy of a civilized community,
but Il remained for the Burr-Hamil-
ton duel to arouse public sentiment
so strongly against this method OF
avenging insults that the practice was
never afterwards regarded IN so hon
orable a light.
1t is difficult to imagine a. the pres
ent day the effect produced by the
duel. not only in New York city, but
throughout the entire country. Point
ical feeling in those years was IN
tensely bitter, but Hamilton's serV-
ices for his country had been OF such
recognized value that his death anu
the manner OF 1t Occasioned wide
spread mourning. A wave OF almost
universal execration burst over Burr.
Although vice president OF the
United States, he had been out Oh
favor In his own party ever since the
election of Jefferson. late In lsoo'
jefferson and Burr each received sew
enty-three ballots in the original elec-
toral vote. For over a week the
house OF representatives bailoted
upon the question, and Burr was ac-
cused of intriguing to defeat Jefrer-
son. the logical candidate OF his
party.
To repair his waning political pres
tige, Burr secured the nomination Tor
governor of New York in 1904. OPP
posed to him was Morgan Lewis, the
candidate of the Federalists. 1t was
a bitter fight, for Burr realized that
defeat meant political extinction.
Hamilton wal a strong supporter OF
Lewis. and when the latter won,
Burr, after an interchange or letters
regarding certain statements made
by Hamilton, sent a formal challenge
The fact that the two men were to
meet on the Weehawken dueling field
was known to but few In New YORK
