A RTHUR POWELL DAVIS. the new
"a chief engineer of the reclamation
service. will spend more than $1,000,-
900 a month, employing more than
10000 men, in reclaiming 100000
acres of desert land included in the
25 irrigation projects now under con-
struction by the government. He
has Just been selected for this re-
sponsibility by Secretary Garfield of
the interior department, on the recon-
mendation of Director Newell, whose
assistant Mr.. Davis has been for the
last few years in the vast work be-
ing done to conserve the waters of
the arid west. The appointment is a
notable instance of the promotion for
merit policy of the administration.
Mr.. Davis was born in Illinois on
February 9, 1861. He was educated
in the public schools of Junction
City and Emporia, Kan, and later
completed an engineering course in
George Washington university. At the
age of 23 he entered the United States
Geological Survey as q member of the
topographic branch, and since then
has been closely connected with the
topographic, photographic and engi-
neering work of the government. His
early work was in the west, where he
spent several years in surveying
reservoir sites In the high mountains
and in measuring the streams of the

int expectation OF that requirement,
took them along as maids and Wallets
for the members of his family who
were of the party. That was joke
which the young folks enjoyed, and
aided zest to the fun.
IL happens, however, that the com.

ing information of such violations of
the law rather frequently Of late, but
has never had 1t in detail sufficient to
enable 1t to undertake prosecution
until this case occurred. Now the
commission Is considering whether
1t ought not to reduce this private car
party to the example state, with a
view to checking such occurrences in
the future. The owner Of the car is
guilty OF one violation Of the law, and
each Of his guests of another.

(Mrs. Robley d. Evans, wife of Admiral
Bob Evans, and sister of Admiral Tay-
lor. took an important part In the work OF
relieving the sufferings of sick and wound
ed soldiers and sailors during the Spanish
American war. She found able assistants
In her work in her two daughters. who
placed themselves under the tuition OF a
trained nurse so that they might work
with skill and knowledge among the
stricken menu
A great man found the work of the
women of the United States In the
civil war worthy of commemoration
In one of his great speeches, and al
though no one has as yet paid like
tribute to the work of our women dur
ing the Spanish war it is not less wor-
thy of some record.
The difference between the work of
the four years from 1861 to 1865 and
that of the four months from April to
August, 1898, was a difference Of
quantity, not of kind. The spirit which
prompted and sustained 1t was Of the
same high quality.
The strain upon mind and heart and
soul was less during the Spanish war
by the absence of the corroding terror
that danger to the nation caused dur
Ing the war of the rebellion. 1t was
perhaps more trying because OF the
question which must arise In the
strongest heart as to whether the dear
lives OF our dearest were not too
heavy q price to pay for any good
thing.
But whatever the questioning the
action did not fail Women with heart
strings torn asunder by those part
ings, such as wiring the life from our
hearts" went Loyalty to work-real
work.
Hospital stores of all kinds, food,
medicines, clothing were issued to
every. point where they would be re-
ceived and any request for such aid
was granted as soon as made.
One instance will illustrate the in
variable method pursued by them.
1t came to my knowledge that the
Manitoba, hospital ship, was to sail
from Newport News for West Indi-
an port to bring home sick and wound
ed men. At the same time was told
that the ship was nearly unfurnished
with medicines and hospital stores.
The brigade surgeon. DR.. Birmingham,
at mz request made out a list OF the
most important things and this was
telegraphed to the secretary Of the
Colonial Danes at Washington, d. c.,
one morning at nine o'clock. At three
o'clock on the afternoon of the same
day the stores and medicines were
shipped. They reached Newport News
the following morn!ng and day later
the Manitoba haS sailed with a full
supply of hospital necessaries." as
the brigade surgeon autographed. The
women did thSt impot tant piece Of
work In six hours.
Those who will look into the mat
tor will find the promptnass and EN-
cheney of the ciHl war work very
worthily continued In the Spanish
war.
Those who may think that the wo-
men were undertaking to do work
that should have been left TO the war
department aud the sirgeon-general's
ONCE are urged to reflect that on the
contrary the women were only sup
plementing in isolated cases and in
small way the great and admirable
work accomplished by cur secretary

 For a pretty foulard in tan with
 white dots scattered over it's surface a graceful skirt of seven gores was developed with deep founce. The latter was attached with self head ing and the top of the skirt was at tached to the belt with shrrings. The waist was of the suspender effect, and the armhOle cut very deep. A band is connected to the back and front edges of the over blouse by straps of rib bon graduating in length from the shoulder to the waist. The right front crosses over the left in surplice fash ion and the fullness is held by gath
 ering. The sleeves are large puffs with a cuff of band of lace, which lace also forms the under blouse and standing collar. Long gloves of tan are worn with costume when used for the street, and the hat was burnt straw green and yellow foliage with among them, huge bow of brown ribbon on the crown and underneath i the brim at the back. A brown par asol, brown shoes and stockings are
 the accompaniments to this costume, With such costume for a change there could be a cream net waist of
 flet lace which would be very stylish
 and effective for dinner or informal
 evening wear, and, of course any of
 the pretty lingerie waists are in order
 at the proper times.

white vest was replaced with one of Persian silk showing many and brighter colors, which gave that note SC suitable to autumn days: the sou tache was removed altogether and a fancy braid outlined the sides of the vest the top of the cuffs which were a.so Of silk and topped the silk collar With this suit was worn a grass linen shirtwaist of the tailored style. a tie. A hat that had seen he.te" days was cleaned, the ribbons r2aeWed and new quill bought and when retrim- ned seemed part of th= co ;tume bet ter than an all new one ,oul1 have &One. This owner of the gowI and hat made no mistake in going to an amateur for this work for if there is one place above another where the experienced hand is needed it is in renewing an old costume, and she was well repaid for her trouble, time and expense. That dress will do her through the autumn for sometime to come as second best dress and in the winter storms under the raincoat to save her better gown.
 A second absolutely necessary gar ment for the woman to take with her is the long raincoat. Of course if she can have or does have silk rubber coat all very we'll, but the majority of women cannot afford these garments, and in the cheaper qualities they are not worth the buying. This same woman who owned the dress described above had also a mode colored covert raincoat which she sent to the clean CTS to be finished and cleaned. Of course, it goes without saying that sin :, will take an umbrella, although it is astonishing what people will forget to provide themselves with when starting on @ journey. An idea that gives some style and carries out the scheme of the suit is to have one good strong umbrella with a handle of good but plain quality, and of linen and silk cover which is the most scr viceable material and then provide several covers to match different cos tumes. It is an inexpensive thing to do and yet adds so much to the effec- tiveness of the costume.
 The veil must be new and of the best, for an old or poor quality veil will spoil the tout ensemble of the whole outfit, fashionable ones now are 6 medium mesh rather strong, and edged with two rows of fine taffeta ribbon of very narrow width. Heavy suede gloves of two buttons in a not tee light color to match the gown will be most appropriate. It goes without saying I suppose that this costume should not be of the elbow sleeve variety. the sleeves should he

 Shoes should be of the heavy soled kind and suitable for any trapping or walking excursions and Able to stand the dampness. Stockings must match the costume. Have plenty of the small things as collars. handkercihefs. etc. so that at your journeys end with a little preparation you will be q presentable object to appear before vour hostess CT at whatever place you will abide in. Brightness and cheer are a part of good appearance.
 If you are to take only the few days over the Labor Day extension another skirt of a dressy kind will be about all you will need without you are to be al some friends house where there will be many social events. Perhaps no skirt is so well fitted for this as taffeta without it be of the ordinary poor kind but if good it is not too dressy for the street of an afternoon or with a fancy blouse too much of the "un- dress to be worn in the evening. Or if one has a foulard in good condition it will serve the purpose just as we'll If buying a new skirt that will do good service during the winter a voile over a silk drop although it has been worn so much, is yet standby for any woman.
 To this must be added in addition to the underwear, tailored shirt waist or two, black Or white China silk waist with a number of little ac- cessories that will make many changes in the appearance, and one Or two waists of the lingerie order. If one of filet lace can be added to the outfit there is little that the visiting lady cannot attend except the most elaborate affairs that require the reg ulation dinner or evening dress. A simple little evening dress might be added if there were room or any luOuSuU lIldL IL Noulu DC uCCuCu. II one is going to a friends house of course more would be required but to a boarding house or hotel the tray cling dress and extra skirt will serve all purposes with a few extra waists.

It is circular in style and can be made in one Or two pieces, the latter bringing a seam It the center of the front and affordins perfect fit about the hips.

New York, Aug. 24.-To the many of us who must stay by our work during the. hot months, the Labor Day va cation comes with welcome relief just at a time when we are tired and Jagged out and the few days are ca gerly looked forward to in which we get our wind again for the coming au- tumn months So to the woman with her wardrobe at tag ends from the dust and grim of the warm months some thought is necessary to get them into shape to tide her over until the newer things are placed upon the counters.
 One of the first things she thinks about is the travelling suit, is the one on hand good enough for another month or more, if not it were we'll to get new one that will do far into the fall until the winter suit can be decided upon If not in too bad a condition then some furnishing will put it where it will serve the purpose. A suit that had already done good service during the summer was of a . light weight serge trimmed with white cloth strapped with black sou tache. It had become somewhat fray ed around the bottom and the white cloth was dusty while the braid was .uot at it's best. The bottom was talk 5-en off as the skirt being intended for an afternoon dress it's length permit ted this. It was steamed, cleaned, pressed and with new velvet on the bottom a very presentable skirt was turned out The jacket was renewed with a new and heavier lining, the
