the bureau proposes to establish as
soon as the necessary apparatus can be
provided by the makers will, there

Sea Sometimes sweeps over II.

Though Richardson Rock is about
80 feet. high. the sea sometimes
sweeps over it and the structure
which will support the light will be
frequently washed with spray.
The rock has been the scene OF
several wrecks, the most recent OF
which was in September last. when
the lumborladen schooner Comet,
bound from Grays Harhor to San
Pedro, struck the rock in q dense fog,
but succeeded in reaching San Miguel
Island where she was beached and
proved q total loss. A man lost his
life in an attempt later 10 swim to
the wreck from the camp which the
crew established on the island.
Because of the isolated location, the
difficulty of access, and the dangers
which must be met in the construc.
ton OF station to house modern
lighthouse equipment and provide
comfortable quarters for the necessa
ry complement Of keepers, the cost of
the establishment OF a complete per-
manent station would be heavy. and
this must await the action OF con-
gress.

Fashions and Fads by M. E. CiIIey

New cloth coats IN the tail show
ings are generally of heavy rough ma
terials, double-faced, with the reverse
side of plain color, which is used for
the trimming.
A few collarless waists are being
shown for fall, but the majority OF
waists are made with a high collar.
as they look so much better when
worn with a wrap
Skirts are actually wider. fall mod
els from the greatest manufacturers
are cut so as TO give a narrow effect,
but measure two and a half yards
around the bottom.
Overskirt effects are used on many
of the skirts of the afternoon dress
es, the petticoat being of some CON
trasting color or of the material,
which is also employed for the trim
ming.
The Coronation, followed by the
coming Durbar, is responsible for al
most barbaric iewelry vogue. What
ever is large is favored. and great
ornaments have a real place IN fash
Ion
Maline laces are particularly popu-
lar in waist ornamentation, as well
as the heavy Venetian and macrame
and combinations of both are seen on
some of the more elaborate waists.
Velvet in both plain and fancy
weaves Is employed in many of the
new three-piece suits--consisting of
coat end skirt with waist 10 match
Many two-piece suits are made of vel
vet.
When sleeves are Of the peasant
type, large folded hack cuffs are usu-
ally employed as trimmings, with per
haps a narrow undersleeve of some
sheer white material net or all-over
embroidery.
The new jabots and especially the
graceful Georgian fall Of lace ueces-
state a neckband. and the fastest col.
lar has an sll-round frill Of pleatod
lace, mounted on a narrow guipure
insertion.
Black or dark blue taffeta tailor
mades trimmed with fringe are ono
of the inventions Of the year. Taffeta
