Sianese Women

RoPEAN DRESS.

Chulalongkorn l.. King of Siam, is
a fine. old.fashioned monarch of the
absolute type who does just as he
chooses, and chooses to do great
many spectacular things, says The
Delineator for January He is the
most absolute ruler in the world, per-
haps. and he spends a fortune or two
whenever the fancy takes him.
Since shulalongkorn l. reached Eu.
rope few months ago none can cal.
culate how many million dollars he
has spent, but 1t has been certainly
good many. When one begins by
buying a thimble for sixty thousand
dollars one may well end by buying 4
good many. 1t would seem as If, in
the face Of such royal expenditure,
there could be little left for subjects
in Siam.
1t does not appear, however, that
there is any more misery in the king
dom of Siam than in most other plac.
es, The king. perhaps, feels that he
deserves a little merrymalting, for he
has been playing for many years a
pretty trying game of politics. The
countries of Europe have all establish
ed some claim on Siam, and the ruler
of that desirable land (Which Is about
the size of Texas, has seesawed very
cleverly and really should not be be-
grudged his holiday.
1t is interesting to note that Chula.
longkorn is far from unfavorable to
the education of women. The most
fashionable Korean ladies have adopt
ed European dress. so far as the up.
per part of the body is concerned. but
they finish off a French waist. all lace
and frills, with the old style of trous-
ers always worn in Siam. The eff
feet, to say the least of it, astonishing.
All women wear their hair short.

ELS BUILDING NEARLY
DONE.

(By S. w. Press Association.l
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 14.-Within
a few weeks the Claus spreckeIs
building, the nlightiest skyscraper Of
them all in San Francisco. will have
been restored to It's original condi'
ton, as it was before the terrible
earthquake and flre of April IS, 1906.
The other great Office buildings have
also been rehabilitated and others are
being erected. The great lesson of
the catastrophe that overwhelmed
San Francisco has been that the steel
skyscrapers are the safest and most
secure against the ravages of both
quakes and flames.
The spreckels building, upon exam
nation after the fire had died down
was found not to have suffered in the
least from the earthquake, although
the fire did great damage to the int
rior. The shaking to which the great
building had been subjected had moi
affected 1t, and not stone had beer
shaken out of place nor one of its
beautiful lines altered.
1t was the fire that ragged about 1t
subjecting it to a heat such as was
never before known in conflagration
that did all the damage. All of April
Is the tall building was the center d
a great wall Of fame thai rageI and
