Mrs. noosevelt's American Gown.

Every detail OF the handsome gown worn
by Mrs Roosevelt met with the closest
scrutiny in the march around The fabric
was woven especially for this occasion In a
silk factory in Paterson. n. j.. and was a
copy in texture and color of sample &C.
lected at the St Louis exposition by Miss
Alice Roosevelt from foreign silk exhibit
with the idea that II would be pleasing 10
Mrs. Roosevelt.
The pattern cannot be duplicated, as that
was destroyed rs soon as the material was
made. Tho shade is neither dark nor
light II is one that was especially becom-
ing in the evening under the electric lighting
which pervaded the ballroom. Tho pattern
showed a flight of doves. the largest Of
which were about two inches from wing 70
wing. the others diminishing in size until
they were barely discernble to very keen
eyes.
A shimmering effect Of coloring. shading
into silver, was one OF the chief attractions
Of the creation. which was outlined in
delicate vine traoery in silver. II was
princesse in style and carried out the long
lines that Mrs. Roosevelt prefers. The
front opened over a petticoat effect of filmy
Mechlin lace, the pattern n design Of ferns.
A bertha Of rose point finished the decollete
bodice. A hair ornament of diamonds,
fastening an aigrette, and n diamond neck
lace and pendant were Mrs. Roosevelt's
jewels
Next to Mrs. Roosevelt's gown. Mrs
Fairbanlfs's came in for close attention.

ONE DUTY OF 4 CHOIR.

Choirs often do things that offend the minister, but perhaps it has remained for Hoboken CNew Jerseyl minister ito rebuke choir for not blowing it's noses right. The choir of St. Paurs
 Episcopal church in Hoboken, N. J., is composed of thirty-five socially prom |inent" young men and women. Climatic changes made some of them rheumy and catarrhal, and the singers were obliged occasionally, in the course of
 their service, to use pocket handker- chiefs. The clergyman, the venerable
 Archdeacon William R. Jenvey, was much annoyed thereby. He attended a
 choir rehearsal, and after an anthem
 had been sung he thus addressed the singers: T have noticed here, as I have noticed repeatedly in church, that the
 members of the choir use their hand kerchiefs at most inopportune times. would beseech the ladies and gentlemen tof the choir to remember thaI the art
 of using the handkerchief, or not using I it, is just as important during the sing l ing of an anthem as the proper method
 of breathing or. enuneiating. have
 heard you, MT. Marshall, instruct the
 choir in technical things pertaining to
 singing, have never heard you, how lever, instruct the members where. how Tor when, particularly when, to blow I their noses.''
 It being certain that a choir ought to
 blow.its noses III the; right way and at I the right time, we hope the Hoboken
 choir will be properly instructed, and that other choirs will learn from it..
 Discordant nose-blowing is not good music. 54#

series of experiments with the Mafne's boilers to determine whether the smoke could be regulated. One theory ad- vanced was that the furnace should bs enlarged, and accordingly two of the lower rows of boiler tubes were re- moved and an observation made O. the smoke issuing from the ships tunnels. Minute record was made of the smoking and a preliminary report sent to the Navy department contained data which failed to show any excessive smoking either with the boiler as modi- fled or as originally installed. Then different kinds of firing were tried and an improvement was noticeable. Later comparisons were made with other ships and photographs were taken of the smoking of ths Maryland. with Babcock & Wilcox boilers. and of the Pennsylvania, with Niclausse boilers These photographs showed that the Maryland smoked excessively. while the Pennsylvania gave thoroughly sat isfactory results. The comparison be. tween the Maine and the other ships has resulted in the conclusion that with proper firing, the ship does not smoke any more than the other yes sels. and it has been determined tc replace the tubss taken from the boiIel and continue the boilers as originally installed.
 Good work. With right smoking ant able shooting the Maine will be able to hold her own when the time comes

tSTBERT4IN GOLD.
s-.t. music.
 ~F

There is still much. gold in Siberia. A special commissioner of the British Board of Trade has just published a
 long report on the condition of the gold industry in that country. He describes it as passing through the transient stage from muscular toll, Old World methods, and rapaeious systems of working to mechanical and scientific
 procedure hitherto but little applied" That the resources Of the precious met al are still incaleulable he does not
 doubt. In most districts, he says, they are practically untouched, only needing more scientific methods to excel even
 the earlier returns with which Siberian
 mining was associated. But the metal can no longer be picked up on the stir-' faee.. The gold which abounds in the valleys, rocks and rivers 'is no longer to be Traked up in shovelfuls by the
 first comer." What are now needed are
 science, system and modern mechan- Eism." He declares that there is gold even in the already worked and aban- doned placers, while the alluvial depos- its now primitively worked, or still un- touched, await but capital and appli- ancess knowledge and system, to yield rich results. "Siberia," he says, lis really far from having exhausted it's stocks, and is but beginning to touch Tits reserves of gold, but capital and
 modern expensive mechanism are re- quired, previous and existing systems
 having but skinned without properly
 reaching the resources at hand." '.%@' If there is going to besa gold question l Siberia is evidently going to contribute her share toward it.

to correct him for some fragrant mis- demeanOr he would set his feet defi- antly and call me dirty old thing some playmate, presume, and which had tried hard to make him quit using. On this particular morning I had so many things to do that I could not stop to fight it out with him, So I shut him up in closet, telling him l would not let him out until he prom lised to be good. Fer at least 10 min utes he stood in there, stamping viciously on the floor, pounding the door with all his might, and yelling dirty old thing at the top of his voice and as fast as he could make his tongue go. He must have repeated that phrase 800 times. Then sud- denly he stopped. and in the next in- stant called out in a cherry tone:
 :. There mother. feel peter now, l feel just like being good

CAREFUL NAVAL YORK.

Naval matters are being sharply looked after in all the big countries now, and in none more sharply than in our own beloved land. For instance, the mystery concerning the excessive smoking of the battleship Maine has been solved to the satisfaction of the Navy department. It may be remem- bered that after the recent European cruise Admiral Barker reported that an unusual volume of smoke issued from the stacks of the Maine. When tine attention of the commanding off, cer of the ship, Captain Leuzte, was called to the matter, he re- piled that his observation was that the Maine did not smoke more than the other ships of the fleet, The corre- spondence was forwarded to the Navy department and referred by the Bu- reau of Navigation to the Bureau of Steam Engineering for investigation. 4 board was appointed to conduct 8

HE4LTHY, NOT HEALTHY OR WISE.
 Pittsburg is a rich place. but it evil dently doesn't know how to spend money wisely. Pittsburg, according to Samuel Hopkins Adams, regularly delivers over larger percentage of it's citizens to death by typhoid fever than any other city in the country. He says that the death rate of the city from typhoid since 1900 has varied from PA to IA per 100000 inhabitants. Against this he places the record of Dresden. where the rate is only four to each 100000. The difference is due to Ores den's Altering it's water, and Pittsburg neglscting it. In MT. Adams own words: The German city. being situ- ated on a huge natural sewer, purifies
 the water it draws from the sewer; the American city, similarly situated,
 gulps down the sewage just as it i conss. Pittsburg draws it's water supply from two sources of equal con tamination, the Allegheny and the Monongahela rivers. Typhoid is al-
 ways present on both thickly populated watersheds. Pittsburg receives this water through intakes above the city, and distributes it, unpurifed, with all
 the bacilli in good working order.

 Pittsburg, if Mr. Prick wont.

BLOWING OFF wIcKNEDEss.

How Wise Mother Managed Her
 Cranky Small Son. !
 The young mother of certain very lively S-year-old boy recently said to me: .
 q think it, sometimes pays to let children yell and stamp and say ugly things to their hearts content. There seems to be about so much wiekedness in them, and if you let them blow it off all at once--preferabiy in the morning-they sort of get it out of their systems and are all the better for it. A few mornings ago my small boy awoke in the ugliest mood have seen him in for many day. I could do nothing with him, he was So touchy and so belligerent, When I undertook
