Interest in Hampton.

An order was issued by the nalthorl-

The announcement CT the order came
as a surprise to the number Of b'Isi-
mes men and others who drive an the

that the new order was due to an ac-

The Evening Scarf.

The scarf Is almost Indispensable
for either day or evening gowns. and
may be arranged In many graceful
ways. forming a complete and effective
trimming for a frock OF cloth. silk or
satin.
Those in crepe de chine measure
shree and half yards In length and
fully a yard wide. The ends are f,n'
ished with a deep fringe OF silk or arc
exauisitely embroidered In flower de-
signs outlined with gold.
Scarfs OF black tulle draped around
the shoulders are very smart for eve
ming wear. There Is also new model
with short sleeves. which Is won
slipped on over the evening robe or
the very smart afternoon one.

A Quick Way.

No matter how much woman may
like 10 sew. she often gets very tired
OF the work. especially when there are
lust few more stitches needed ia
complete an article. This Is true OF
the busy mother who Is always plan
ming for the making Of something else
before the garment In hand Ia finished.
BY such a woman a helpful hint Ia ap'
preCiated.
For instance. when making corset
cover. II takes time TO cut and turn In
the edges OF material for casing
through which to run the ribbon nec'
essarily used at the waist line OF the
article. A piece OF strong tape OF suf-
ficient width will mot have to be
turned In, but merely to be sewn along
each edge on the sewing machine and
used as a casing.

THE DAY IN CONGRESS

Washington, Jan. % Exactly as
reported by the committee. the naval
program for the fiscal year 1910 was
today adopted by the house and the
naval appropriation bill was passed.
The opponents ol the navy increase
feature of the bill found themselves in
a hopeless minority. The only vital
alterations made in the measure was
striking out provisions restoring ma
rines to naval vessels. The aggregate
amount appropriated by the bill is
sl35, 900, 900.
The increase in the naval estimate
gave rise to extended and heated de-
bate, in which members were afforded
an opportunity to air their views of
the Japanese question. The peace ad-
vocates were much in evidence in OPP
position to such increase, while the
adherents of the proposition were
alive all the time to every move made
to cut down the number of vessels au
thorized
At 4:26 p. M the house adjourned
