Lace EpauIette praperies.

Very pretty and graceful are the
lace draperies of epaulette shape which
replace the sleeve in its ordinary form
for ball and dinner dresses. The lace
employed for the purpose is from six
70 eight inches broad. Gathered close
ly over the shoulders, il falls in full
folds over the top OF the arm.
The widely opened armhole has be-
come a generally observed fashion. but
is more suited for day than evening
wear, and is often a rather displeasing
feature with a low bodice The lace
drapery just described replaces IL cd
vantageously, and still preserves the
broad appearance across the shoul-
ders. which has been one of the char
acteristics OF this winters fashions.
For young girls the same sort of
drapery is made OF Greek or point
d'esprit net, with narrow, self-col
ored crimped fringe as edging.

RACE FOR PRIZES
And GET NO MARK
Important Change Made at
the MeetirgOf the National
TTOtiing Association
Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.


NEW YORK, Feb. 10 "A new emanci-
patton proclamation for horsemen who
race for the sake Of The sort was de-
clared by the National Trotting As
ISOLATION here yesterday afternoon
Lincoln Day.
Heretofore all performances of harness
racers where gate money was charged
or other sources Of revenue obtained
brought with them the penalty of n
record or bar. The American Trotting
Association. an off-shnot to the Ma
tional and it's Western rival. opened
the door little last year, and allowed
10 days Of non-record racing for MEM
bers. The delegates here to-day went
much further, and virtually gives the
drivers carte blanche to race without
records where 10 money is won or
earned by the horses. The new sec
ton of Rule A reads:
Records cannot be made or bars in
CURED in contests on grounds Of menu
bers. for premiums other than money,
when no entrance fee is collected from
entered or competing horses, even if
admission is charged at the gate or
grand stand. and privileges sold, but
all other rules governing public races
shall be enforced. and members, as well
as competitors. shall be answerable for
violations Of same. This rule shall
apply only to meetings given by menu
bers Of the National Trotting Associa-
ton"
Other Rule Changes.
Outside Of this sweeping innovation
there were no amendments of very
great moment proposed by the Rules
Committee, that has been at work since
Monday. Among the minor changes
is one permitting the Judges to select
a starter if no regularly licensed otti-
cial Of that sort is available.
An attempt to impose a fee Of s25
for a license to such starters was
made, but this was voted down.
Rule T. which formerly required Eve
to enter and three to start in all purse
events. now reads, three to enter and
two to start"
Horses going in hopples must now
keep them on to the end of the race,
and any horse known tc be habitually
driven with these appliances cannot
start without hopples unless by special
consent of the judges.
Rule 81, governing distance, was
amended to suit the Canadian con-
tineent, where the judges may waive
their power to declare a horse behind
the flag in contests on snow or ice. In
the main the report of the Committee
on Rules was acceptable to the dele
gates and several attempts to make
new provisions presented by men with
special hobbies were promptly voted
down.

MARKSMEN
WON THE SHOOT

Wilmington marksmen demonstrated
again yesterday afternoon that they
were able to "shot some" when team
representing the Wawaset Gun Club
Of this city and a team representing
the Aberdeen (Md.) Gun Club shot a
ten-man team match at the Wawaset
grounds, the result being that the locals
defeated their opponents by the score
Of SIS to S71.
The shoot was a hundred target
match and the Aberdeen men were
under the leadership of Lester German,
the well-known professional shot with
the DUPONT squad. 1t was no fault of
German that his team did not come out
winners as he was high bun, breaking
81 out Of the possible hundred.
In the general shoot, in which there
were forty participants, the ten high
scores counted in the team race, each
man shooting at 100 targets in strings
of twenty-five. The weather was not
the most favorable for the events
and owing to cloudiness the shooters
had difficulty in locating the blue rocks
as they left the traps

race and their total scores follow:
