AN ENTENTE CORDIALE.
Senator Lodge On thS Relations Between
France. England and America.


France, England and America.
OYSTER BAT, Aug. Ex-senator Henry
Cabot Lodge Of Massachusetts, left here at
sAs o'clock this morning for his summer
home at Nahant after having spent the
night at sagamore Hill. He said:
-The President and / talked about every
thing under the sun. saw a great many
officials while abroad and found that
France and Great Britain have such a
thorough understanding now that 1t prao-
tically amounts to an entente oordiale.
Those two Powers are very close; also. both
Of them have very warm feeling for the
United States. More cannot say
The inference from the Senator's re-
marks and tone as he spoke was that a
very close entente between the United
States, Great Britain and France was
bound to come very soon.
Senator Lodge Is a member OF the Com
mittee on Foreign Relations in the Senate
and Is very close to the President. There is
reason to believe that the Senator has to
some extent ascerained what would be
the attitude Of France and England to the
Far Eastern situation should the peace
negotiations fall through. 1t Is supposed
that the Senator has also examined Euro
pean opinion upon our paternal relations
with Santo Domingo.
The Senator said that President Roosevelt
was held in the highest regard abroad and
that his recent act Of bringing about the
peace conference is regarded as a master
stroke Of diplomacy. The Senator said
that the President described to him the
scene on the Mayfower, but he disclaimed
any knowledge OF the upshot Of the confer
enoe. ain Europe he said. 'the attitude
Is pessimistic."

ST, PETERSBURG PESSIMISM.
Belief That There Il No Hspe Of Agreement

Special Cable Dsspafehss to TIE Sun.
ST PETERSBURG, Aug. 1a.-It Is considered
here that both peace commissions In Ports
mouth are now chiefly concerned over how
to make the failure Of the negotiations the
least offensive to tho United States and
other neutral Powers. Russia strongly
desires to avoid damaging President Roose-
vet's prestige inasmuch as she Is really
japan undoubtedly has the same desire,
although IL l. considered in diplomatic
circles that she rather suffers by the whole
episode.
Some believe that the next session Of the
conference will be the last. Others are in
clined to think that several more meetings
will be held II for no other purpose than In
tribute to Roosevelt 3 desires and with view
to possible understanding on minor points
which will prove valuable when real peace
negotiations are reached.
There Il some constituencies in of1cial
circles over the charge that Russia has
again shown perfdy In her diplomatic
methods, which was the true cause OF the
present war, by disclosing the peace terms
at Portsmouth In violation Of tbs agree
ment with the Japanese ENJOYS. 1t h
even suggested at the Foreign ONCE to-day
that the truth may he that the terms are
much more severe than represented and
that the accepted version was allowed
to leak out by the Japanese In order to
conceal their more drastic character.
On the other hand. 1t must be remem-
bered that the present moment precisely
suits the purpose Of the Russian Govern
ment at the present stage Of the domestic
crisis.
LONDON, Aug. 14.-Petrunkevitch,
prominent reformer who was conspicuous
Mt the zemstvo congress at Moscow, In an
;nteryiew with the st. Petersburg CORE
spondent OF the Standard, said that although
peece was extremely desirable. pertigans
Of peace at any price we're extremely few.
He believed that Russia would ultimately
have to pay hundred million pounds
sterlinR as indemnity under whatever
name It was called. increasing Russia's
interest payments by five millions. This
was not beyond her resources and 1t was
without reason to regard the demand
humiiating.

OYSTER BAY. Aug ls.-President Roose-
volt, II Is learned on authority, now enter-
tains doubts whether he win call an extraor-
binary session OF Congress on Nov. II
next as no had thought he would.
Senator Knox, who boarded the train
at EAston, Pa, when the President was
on the way TO Wilkesbarre. It is said,
strongly advised the President against
cal1lAg the session. President Roosevelt
had contemplated tho extraordinary ses-
sion for the purpose Of having some rail-
road legislation enacted, as we'll as other
legislation.
The President had planned to call such
session a. far back as last spring. but
number OF Senators and Representatives
had gone abroad and for other reasons
session was then impracticabie. Then
the President had thought Of the coming
fall and some people had even been notified
OF the proba bility Of the extraordinary
session, and until the Presidents recent
conference with Senator Knox the session
was considered as almost certain to come.
But Senator Knox pointed out that the
extraordinary session. II held, would not
really meet until about the middle Of No
vember. This would be only about three
weeks before the regular assembling Of
Congress. And three weeks. the Senator
pointed out, was too short time to mako
1t worth while. The President thought
this over, and now 1t Is known he Ia very
doubtful whether the extra session will be
held at all

The strawberry cream Is made as

about to make custard. Set the

and the Strawberries out. BY the
way, it Is absolutely essential that the
berries be ripe. Let them strain
through a clean, fine cheese-cloth
bag. Do not hurry the straining pro-
cess or attempt to squeeze the bag.
To six ounces of the strained liquid
add one ounce of white wax, one
ounce Of spermaceti and two ounces
Of lanoline. Put all over the fire and

skirt Mapping about and hanging down
In cold, disagreeable fashion
Boots she has had of late years and
thigh boots at that, so that she has
been practically dry, but the minute
she stepped into the stream above her
knees away floated the skirt and no
matter how carefully she tucked 1t into
her belt it always found some means
OF escape. But that discomfort is
thing of the past, for a skirt that is
triumph of cunning has been fash
Toned to cheat the waters.
To all appearances it is quite like
all other short skirts, the only differ
ence being that 1t opens on the side
or directly in front. But there is a
difference and II all lies with an array
Of tapes that are fastened to the in
side of the skirt. Five or six of them
there are, that are sewed firmly to the
seams and that come directly to the
waist line, where they run through
small rings ready to be fastened about
the waist. If the skirt is the right
length the strings are not touched and
are not an inconvenience by any man
ner OF means, but when the water be-
gins to flap disagreeably near the dan
ger line, the strings are given a hitch
or so. and 10 and behold, the skirt rolls
up evenly and smoothly as high as one
pleases. Up to the very waist It may
and trim as can be.
This same fishing lady has a brand
new hat, too. and the quaintest little
piece Of millinery out. There isn't a
blessed thing about II to spoil by the
water or to fade by the sun and when
II has knocked about camp until It is
rather the worse for wear 1t may be
sent to the laundry with the rest Of
the suit and comes home fresh and
none the worse for wear. Tt is fash
ioned more like mans small round
hat with a round top and a curling
small brim than like anything else 1
can think of. 1t is small, delightfully."-
so, and sits jauntily on the head and is
adjusted according to the sun. If the
sun is too warm on the neck, the back
brim is given a little twist and It
settles down Immediately into a sbaH5
affair that is very grateful When the
sun works little to the side, the brim
follows it until the glare on the water
makes it unpleasant and the front fol-
lows suit. It is not necessary to have
the brim down all the way around un-
less one pleases, for 1T is sort Of up
and down affair that stays just where
it is put and makes not the least OBJ
lection.
And Miss Traveller, let me tell you
little secret while / think of it. Made
of black taffeta they are the most
fetcn1ng little creations to travel In

jamming, packing and sitting on In
jures them in the least and they bob up
serenely after a hard journey and come
home in splendid condition. And that
is Infinitely more than can be said Of
any other hat that / know of this sum-
mer. when everything seems to be bill
lows Of lace and quantities Of fancy
braids and flowers.

hats, plenty Of them. but they are

hunting suit and a cartridge belt and
gun that adds not a little to her pic
turesqueness. And then. Of course, she
needs shoes and boots. Not the kind
that look heavy and wear out in the
twinkling of an eye, but boots that are
made of the same Identical leather as
her fathers and brothers and fash
ioned after the same comfortable pat
tern too.
The majority Of them are made Of
soft buff hide that not only looks very
smart but it wears remarkably we'll IN
the bargain. If they are wet in cross
ing a muddy field, a good scrubbing
with ordinary soap and water and
sun bath is all they require and they
are not only clean and fit again but
soft and pliable as well.
Occasionally some experienced hun
ter prefers high boots to knickerbock-
ers. In scrambling through shrubs
the briars and thorns have taught her
a few painful though valuable lessons
and for her are made what is known as
the Russian riding boot. They ara
thigh length and fasten UP the side so
that they interfere in no way with the
stirrup. For country riding and fol-
lowing the hounds they are splendid
and when used at home they may be
turned over SO as to form a cuff that
gives the boot a very fetching finish.
Everything has been provided for the
summer girl and not one item, even to
the very smallest, has been omitted.

Wooden PavementS.

From the Baltimore Herald.
Having experimental with wooden blocks
for having material and found them satis-
factory, Baltimore Is preparing to use them
upon an extensive scale. Claims made for
them of economy and durability have been
tested by time and found justified In the
business section the wooden blocks are be-
ing used on streets where they will be sub
jected TO the wear Of heavy traffic.
The particular merit of the wooden pave
ment which overtops every other Is Just
coming to be generally appreciated. 1t Is
practically noiseless. Traffic over the blocks
is not specially silent. The vehicles them
selves generate enough friction for their
passage to be noticed, while the Vocfera-
lions of drivers and motormen in inter-
changes of traffic courtesies produce enough
hubbub for the pedestrian not to get lone
some as he traverses the sidewalks.
The element of noise In city life Is one OF
It's most serious drawbacks. The grating
and Earring of vehicles over cobblestones,
belgium blocks or even concrete pavements,
Is distracting to nervous persons, and at
times is narrowing to anyone. lr, upon
wider use the wooden pavement demon
strates as many units of efficiency as any
other sort its lessening of the noise OF
traffic should give II considerati ton beyond
all others. A reduction of traffic noises 70
per cent, even less, would be clear
denizens. 1t is creditable TO the authorities
that they have decided to use this noiseless
pavement in the vicinity of hospitals. 1t
will add much to the ease of invalids whose
condition demands freedom from nerve
wracking noises.
