The never-to-be-settled ques-
ton of skirts comes up each sea-
son, and while the plated skirt
still holds good, all the imported
costumes have gored or circular
skirts. This is more in accord
ance with the ideas of the fash
ionable dressmaker, as manu-
facturers turned out the plated
skirt by the thousand, and with
a shirt waist, the ordinary NOR
tai was almost independent of
dressmakers. The skirts of dress
es from across the water are Ion
ger, but the American women
having experienced the comfort
and convenience of short skirts,
may not welcome this innovation.

The political situation contin-
ues to be fraught with interest.
No Republican candidate can
make much headway because Of
the feeling that the President
may be induced to run again.
The President is enjoying this
situation to the utmost, both be-
cause there is only one candidate
whom he desires to make head
way and because he foresees an
opportunity at the proper minute
to turn his own popularity to the
good of that candidate. When
the proper time comes, Mr..
Roosevelt will . 'sidestep", but
he will do it in such a way that
the mantle of his strength will

styles of projectiles on the armOr

the effect of their explosive shells

There is every reason to expect
the most gratifying results from
the current trips of Secretary
Taft and Secretary Root. In ia
pan, Secretary Taft is carrying
out the policy of the Administra-
ton with that rare tact and good
humor which constitute one of
his greatest faculties, demon
strating to the Japanese that the
United States entertains the
friendliest feelings toward the
flowery kingdom, despite the fact
that this country cannot accom-
modate great numbers of Japa-
nese laborers without upsetting
local labor conditions. No nation
on earth would be willing to per-
nit great infuxes of foreign la
Dor, disturbing home conditions
and antagonizing her own work
men, regardless of the extent of
friendly feeling which she might
entertain for the country from
which that labor came, and the
United States is no exception to
the rule. In Mexico, Secretary
Root is making a host of friends
and doing everything possible to
cement the friendly relations
which already exist between the
| United States and her little sis
ter republic to the south. The
combined influence of the two
nations is potent for good, as is
shown by the responses of the
Central American republics to
the tender of good Offices which
came from Presidents Roosevelt
and Diaz, and there can be nc
question in the minds of persons
who look at the situation without
prejudice that the stronger bond
of friendship which must follow
from Mr.. Roots visit will make
for even greater good in the flu.

The President, during his re-
cent brief stay in the national
capital, stated with characteristic
firmness that the battleship fleet
would make the proposed cruise
to the Pacific. The Presidents
purpose in making the announce
ment so forcefully was obviously
to set at rest the scolding and
speculation of certain newspapers
regarding the coming cruise. The
announcement has, however,
failed of it's purpose and the pa
pers the President had in mind
have only begun more vehement
ly to voice their protests and de-
mands that IAN indignant pub
lie" join them in their feeble
clamOr against a move which is
regarded by a majority of Amer
leans as a wise one. One news
paper, the common scold of
New York City,, has undertaken
to demonstrate the extent to
which the prospective cruise is
condemned by conducting a poll
of members of Congress on the
subject. Thus far, about one
fourth of the membership of the
House has been heard from and
there is hardly a dissenting voice
in the number. Even the Dem
ocrats are awake to the benefits
which will result from the cruise
and for once refuse to be led into
a ridiculous position. A promi-
nent naval officer has recently
called attention to the fact that
not cross word has been heard
from Japan since the purpose of
the Presidentfn sending the fleet
to the Pacific has become known,
and as it is more than likely that
the diplomacy of the Administra-
ton will soon be taxed to the ut
most to secure a Japanese exclu-
sion treaty, the forceful effect of
the fleet in Pacific waters may
prove of incalculable aid.

Alligator's Affection.

1t seems that if you only begin
early enough. it is possible to tame
even the fiercest animals. A baby
alligator, caught in a swamp, was
taken to the home of its captor in New
York, and in the course of time it
would follow him about like a dog.
What was even more curious was that
it and the cat became great chums.
When pussy slept before the fire the
alligator used to lay it's head on the
cat and go to sleep, too. The only
creature that excited the alligator was
a fox, chained in yard. 1t did not try
to bite the fox, but dashed It with it's
tail. Once, had the chain not broken,
poor Reynard would have been beaten
to death. The alligator was fed on
raw flesh and milk, of which it was
very fond. When the weather was
cold it was kept in box with wool in
1t. One frosty night the wool had
been forgotten, and next morning the
alligator was found dead.
