Association in the world. The whole plan
was modelled on the Y. M. c. A., and every
effort made to give the impression that
the Shaohsing organization was a part OF
the same movement.
About 800 men joined the bogus asso-
citation, receipts for membership fees ard
dues going into the pockets of the pro-
motors of the scheme. The matter came
into notice through the presentation Ct
some of the membership tickets DIT the
Shanghai Y. M. c.. A. where the holders
We're greatly disappointed to find they had
been made the victims of misrepreseuta-
ton. The latest information Is that one
OF the leaders in the bogus association had
been arrested at the instance of the gem
eral secretary of the Shanghai Y. M. G.
A. and the Chinese government had pecn
asked to close up the rooms in Shaoni;hs.
Commenting the affair, the Rev. Mr..
MattoX says that when foreigner takes
hand in such a swindling scheme more
Chinese are made to hate and reviic the
occidental than missionaries can bring to
a different point of view in ten years. time.

imported crepe. This sort of costume is
exactly typified by the gown suggested in
today's illustration. 1t should be made of
delicate glycine China crepe pleated in
very full at the belt and singularly plain as
to shirrings and puffs. The pleats are not
even pressed or stitched. but are held in by
the waist band and then are allowed to flow
outward gracefully to the bottom of the
long trained skirt.
A few inches above the hem of the skirt Is
a broad band of Alencon medallions set
close together and deliberately embroidered
in deeper shade of mauve than the crepe
Just at the top of the medallions is pretty
bowknot pattern wrought of mauve and sill
yer threads, and then the conventional de-
sign spreads upward several inches In deli
cate sprays of leaves and flowers.
Instead of continuing around the skirt in
a perfectly straight line, the medalhons fol-
low a slightly raised one, SO that in the
back they appear to be almost their depth
higher than the medallions in front, and
thus leave a long part of the train below.

same pattern that is used elsewhere on the
skirt. and in addition to flower effects the
embroidery suggests second row OF me-
dallions. Here the shades of mauve grow
deeper and deeper. toning much lighter to-
ward the upper part of the trimming.
There is no apparent shortening of the
front of dress skirts. as this model proves.
When there is q train then the material is
hung to lie at least three inches on the floor
in front and at the sides. and the back Is
cut with long. graceful sweep. II a round
skirt Is liked. then ii is to all appearances
the same length all round and Just touches
the floor But in case one of the newest
trains is desired. then the front and sides
of the skirt are of medium length-that is,
they are q trihe shorter than the model
below and have a dip in the back. Young
women find this style particularly becoming
to their figures and many of them have al
ready adopted il for dancing and brides
maids costumes.
But to return to the description of the
gown under discussion. 1t carries out the
idea so much in vogue-that OF having the
skirt characterization repeated in an appro-
pirate manner on the bodice In this in
stance the medallion trimming takes tho
form of fichu. The Alencon lace is ar
ranged over the shoulders and is brought
down the front over full soft blouse The
media Hons come well over the tops of the
sleeves ana round over the bust, where they
end under a full cascade of lace. which Is
carried upward and back. Instead OF maxi
ing cape IN the back the Alencon is FASH
Toned into graceful basque or pair of them
for the medallions, always graduating In
size narrow toward the waist. and then,
after being gathered just at the belt. they
fall below in two very smart basques.

trimmed just at the bottom of the waist
with two very handsome mauve and silver
buttons.
There is a "V'-shaped yoke of Alencon
and stock of the same, while az the bust
is seen a duplicate of the ornament on the
back of the girdle The sleeves are very full
puffs of China crepe, putting to the elbow.
where they are met by long tight cuffs of
Alencon lace. AT the bend of the arm and
showing under the puff of the crepe are
touches of embroidered lace, with knots Of
silver ribbon. This takes the form Of passe-
menterie fringe. and is pretty and effect
i've that 1t is repeated on the front of the
bodice almost at the end of the fichu.
For demi-toilets to be worn during the
coming spring no material will be so popu-
lar taffeta. These costumes will be made
with full round skirts. gored becomingly
over the hips and trimmed rather elaborate
ly on the bottom of the skirt. AS general
thing this trimming will be fashioned Of the
taffeta arranged in tucks in fine pleatings
or in frills. Flat effects will be most worn,
and if there are any striking contrasts in
colors or materials these will be used on the
bodice alone. Surplice waists will head the
line in taffetas well as in batistes. and
guimpe of thin white material will give the
finishing touch.

OF the national capital before returning
home. The local officers are alive to the
fact that this will probably mean a repetl-
ton of the great crowds that attended the
convention of 1896. and they feel that
something should be done for the reception

1t is likely that the District Endeavorers
Will open headquarters at the Baltimore
