In connection with the building of the
new Senate and House office buildings on
either side Of the Capitol construction
work is being pushed rapidly on the new
Congress Hall Hotel in the same vicin-
ity. The building is now enveloped with
tier upon tier of scaffolding, but it is
promised that it will be ready for occu-
pancy at about the opening date Of the
next session of Congress. Situated ad-
vantageously for incoming visitors, it is
anticipated the hosiery will draw a liberal
patronage from incoming travellers from
the new union station. Through an mad
verdence, the name of the hosiery was
given in The Star yesterday as the Con-
gressional Hotel, but that title was as
sumed years ago by another house The
propretors of this new house have adopted
Congress Hall as appropriate to the imme-
diate surroundings.

arranged that these can be easily seen.
1t takes IA yards OF stun 10 make a

They are worn enormously fun, and are
so tied in at the lnstep that they hang
down Ike bags, The haick or head

OF the features OF the afternoon parade

Jcwesses are always in evidence.
1t Is only when upon the streets that
the Arab woman wears these very full
trousers. They are removed IS soon as
she comes home and other pantaloOns
take their places. The latter are made
OF silk or China crepe; they are loose

anklets of gold. The poorer wear silver,
and those who have nothing will load
themselves down with brass and white
metal
Indeed, ! am surprised al the number
of ornaments which even the common
Arab girls wear Little tots OF 6 and
have heavy silver rings on their ankv
les and gold rings as big around as
an after.dinner coffee cup saucer. not
only In the lobes of their ears, but also
In the rims all along the top. This Is
especially so OF the Bedoulu girl, who
often carries the wealth OF her whole
family ON her person. The Kabyle womY
an covers her breast with jewclry, and
wears enormous earrings and anklets
and pins, which will weigh pound or
more each.
During my trip down into the western
desert | had to spend night in first
class car with rich Arab chief and
his Wife and their two little girls. When
the woman came in she was so bundled
up that one could tell nothing as to her
clothes. As the night went on. how
ever, her ONergarments were thrown
back and / observed that she was
dressed like the queen of Sheba In her
glory. She had half dozen bracelets
ON each of her arms Her fingers
sparkled with diamonds. and she wore
great gold rings In the sides and lobes
OF her ears, She had a little cornu-
copia cap on her head. This was OF red
velvet embroidered with gold. and she
wore a spangled shirt waist over a
white chemlse OF fine wool. She was
tattooed on chin, forehead ana cheeks.
