(By Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
Washington, D. G. Dec. 2O.-Now
that the Republican National Commit
tee has held it's session and decided
about the convention, the country Is
breathing easier. Seemingly no one
knew what dangerous and unexpected
developments might occur when all OF
the big men comprising the committee
got together and exchanged confiden-
ces about the chances Of the party for
success in the next campaign. It
proved to be a pretty tame meeting
after all, and the most alarming thing
about it was the specter Of Bwana
Tumbo which many Of the committee
men thought they could discern in the
background, behind a pillar or among
the shadows of the corridors.

ed with present fashions in dancing
slippers. They were designed by the
fairy god-mothers of this seasons 8
debutantes-to-be and are of various
sorts of flexible fabrics-satin, glace
kid of thinnest quality. suede and
elastic cloth of gold or silver. And
they make the largest of feminine feet
appear delicate. That is because of
the gradually tapering toe, the bold
arch of the instep and the shape and
set of,the heel. Moreover all of their
decorations are fiat. Protruding bows
and clumsy rosettes have been sent to
limbo, and in their stead are border
tngs of fine hand-embroidery in tinsel
thread and designs worked out with
metallic paillettes or tiny pearl beads.
Rhinestones, too, are extensively en-
ployed, and on the black satin slippers
without which no wardrobe is COM
plete are floral patterns in the tiniest
Of jets.
For the boudoir there are mules
which tempt their owner to kick off
the street shoe and thrust the weary
toes into depths of quilted satin of
tender tone in pink or blue or violet.
The mules have higher heels than
ever they possessed, for word has gone
forth from the beauty parlors that
heelless footgear causes the ankles
to swell and that one way of keeping
those member slender is to have the
extremes of the feet describe an angle
of forty-five degrees.
Solid comfort is reserved for the
brushing, face-massaging hour
directly after the return from the
laborious diversions of the evening.
During the performance of the rites
which precede the trip to slumber-
land, the weary feet are soothed and
allowed to spread themselves in shoes
of the same pattern but of many times
the size of those customarily worn by
the Chinese lady of high degree. The
Chinese bedroom shoe is far too pretty
to lead a life of seclusion, for it is
of light blue silk embroidered with
birds and butterflies done in pink.
green and yellow, and it is lined with
white satin Of finest quality.
Stockings are not so thin as they
were a few months ago. That is to
say, the smart woman now wears ho-
siery which actually conceals the cu-
ticle upon her ankles instead of merely
yelling it with tissuelilxe webbing of
silk or Isle. All of the hosiery re-

are little jumpers or overwaiSts of
crepe de chine that bear slight re-
semblance to the jumper of yesteryear
since they have fronts of fichu shape
that cross at the belt and form scarf
ends which fall far over the skirt.
Without the scarf ends, the same
model is frequently developed in white
mousseline de sole for use with the
autumn tailormade of satin-surfaced
broadcloth which no FrenchWoman
and but few Americans would think
Of trying to get along without. The
transparent fchu-jumper, however, is
elaborated with bordering of white
silk hand-embroidery or silver tinsel
thread and with such an accessory
always fresh and spotless, at hand any
woman owning a smart-loolxing street
costume is perfectly justified in ac-
cepting an impromptu invitation to
run into town, dine at a small hotel
and witness a play at a fashionable
theatre.
The F'renchyoman's Sleeveless
Waistcoat.
In the case of the Frenchwoman,
not every frilly white front of fine
linen and lace belongs to a costly
lingerie blouse worn beneath the coat
Of a stunning tailormade suit of heavy
cloth. Usually that which appears to
be a blouse is merely a false front or
high-necked Waistcoat and is backed
by some very commonplace launder-
able material. Thus does the daugh-
ter of France save innumerable francs
which otherwise would go to laun-
dress, for she sees no reason why she
should have an extra pair of sleeves
beneath the street wrap which she has
no intention of removing in public.
The sleeveless waistcoat is also well
known to the Frenchwoman's contem-
porary on the other side of the chan
mel, but it is of as practical a charac-
ter as is the average Englishwoman's
tailormade costume and nearly al
ways made of plaided Worsted, heavy
white linen or widely corded pique.
Within the past few months many
Americans returning from the round
of English house party visits imme-
diately following the London season,
have worn these Misunderstanding
thick Waistcoats directly over the por-
ton of the silk tight combination
which covers their corset and directly
under the coat of the tailored cos
tune.
Revers and cuffs en- suite and of
some rather striking shade in satin,
are attachable coat accessories be-
longing to every Frenchwoman's
wardrobe. They are used chiefly with
the ail-black or the all-White broad
cloth, taiIormade and With an assort-
ment of colors in such sets the
changes may be rung almost ad hbi-
turn providing that the trimmings OF
the hats do not swear at the finish

is not for the street costume which
literally sweeps the pavements. It is
an attribute of the satin tailormade
that is reserved for autumn church
weddings in town or country and to
which every feminine guest goes in
some sort of private vehicle.
Tom Thumb fringe is the ideal
edging for the apron overskirt OF for
the tunic which is a feature of the
three piece tailormade of satin, silk
serge or velvet. This miniature of
the stately long fringes which have an
unpleasant habit Of becoming tangled
definitely defines the lines of the up
per garment or drapery even when the
costume is entirely of one tone and
undeniably these one-tone effects are
smartest of all for the stately matron
who has passed her first youth and
must choose shades which are not
embarrassing to the complexion.
F'ringes with just a CLINT of tinsel
in their threads or their gimps are
put on some Of the tai1ormades com
bining smooth-surfaced cloth and
satin OF subdued tones. The trim
ming comes in the fashionable shades
Of green, brown, gray and blue and
in the dull red which, away from
strong light, appears to be black.
What Goes Directly Beneath the
Tailored Costume.
Petticoats are tabooed in so far as
the tailored costume is concerned.
Even a ruff1eless petticoat Of softest
satin is not to be tolerated, for it
must terminate somewhere between
the knees and the ankles, and where
ever it ends a line will mar the
smoothness of the skirt above it.
Tights solve the prob1em-two sets
of them. The first set coming in con-
tact with the body may be of cotton,
lisla or lambswool. That is a matter
for the individual to settle for her
self; the couturier does not care so
long as they are smoothly fitted and
worn beneath an absolutely perfect
corset and a glove-f1tting second set of
Niagara silk tights which may be of
pure white but would best be of the
shade of the costume. The woman of
the hour is as comfortably garbed as
any of her kinsmen and her so-called
street lingerie has never been so in
expensive, for while the first cost Of
tights is considerable, the laundrying
of them is a mere bagatelle- 1t may
be observed in passing that the gar
ments worn beneath street garb have
nothing whatever in common with
those worn beneath house costumes,
for these continue to be made of
finest linen, hand-embroidered, hand
made and real lace trimmed.

A Lain pumps hold their popular
ity and are worn with dressy
street costumes and this despite
b the attacks made upon them
from various quarters on the score
that they afford scarcely any support
to the arch of the foot, and that pri-
marily they were designed solely for
wear in the house. The pumps brought
out for autumn service on the
streets do not err on the side of light
ness of sole, and their moderately
high Louis heels and fat bows of
corded ribbon give them a simplicity
Of style which appeals irresistibly to
women of all ages. Moreover, the
pumps make the foot appear short
as well as slender and-that settles
the matter.
Half-sister to the pump is the Co
lonial shoe which is brought out In
dull calf in black, brown and gun
metal; in suede, in greys and tans.
and in black and white Ottoman silk.
The Colonial is so much more dressy-
owing chiefly to it's handsome buckle
of silver, gilt or gun metal-than is
the tongueless pump, that it is right
ly reserved for wear with the ornate
tailored street costume. 1t is always

bers and not in size, of course) at
fashionable tea-rooms and at church

styles have temporarily suffered an
eclipse and the buttoned type have
come back with vengeance. A row
of buttons down the side Of the ankle
unquestionably make that member
seem simmer, but what shall the
woman do whose instep is arched like
the back of a camel? The answer is:
'She may wear laced Oxfords and
spats.'' Fortunately spats are ultra
smart at present and especially those
of white kid or cravenette worn with
shoes of black patent leather. To be
sure this style is a bit outre, but
then all of the fashions of the day
may be so described and that the
makers of footwear should strive to
keep pace with the makers of gowns
and hats is not to be wondered at.

who knows that her world expects her
to look chic even though she cannot
contrive to be positively pretty, and
that to be a trump is a mortal sin
deservedly punished by the sneers of
snobs.
A fear of what the snobs will say
prevents innumerable women from
wearing during the autumn the per-
fectly good suits and semi-tailored
costumes that were purchased during
the preceding spring and rarely worn
during the following summer. In these
days every enlightened person belong
