The colors of the new materials
for spring are not very different from
'hoSe worn last year at this time
though most Of the shades are a lit
tie softer than they were then. Some
bright colors are still used. especi-
ally the deep rose pink as American
Beauty" ceriSe and coral. Vivid
shades Of green and blue are also
good. and any of these make attrac-
tive trimmings when not used too
lavi>hly.
Blue has lost none of its prestige.
and You may choose the very dark
navy or the duh goblin in a medium
shade for your suit if blue IS to be the
color. Brown is also a good choice.
and green is q close rival both in the
light and dark shades. Gray Will be
worn and the darker shades gener-
ally preferred.

OF far more moment than the reference

named BY the Democrats to consider mat

committee. three are conservatives
Messrs. Smith. Of Georgia; Clarke. OF
Arkansas. and Martin, of Virginia. Sena-
tor Stone is only a quasi-radicaL ana
owen. of Oklahoma. IL the only full radl-
cal on the committee. This selection 10
regarded as fairly conclusive evidence oI
the faction which will dominate in the
Senate after March 4, and many there are
who regard Senator Smith. of Georgia
ss the probable leader Of the majority.
Mr.. Smith brought with him to the sen
ate a breadth OF view acquired oy ser
vice I'm President Cleveland's Caolnet
which is possessed by none OF his COL

force and OF calm judgment, and ths
chances of his acquiring the leadership
in the upper house are bright. senator
Clarke of Arkansas, is another conserNa-
tive Democrat. who, by reason OF his long
experience. Is likely TO play an important
mart IN the Senate The fact that senator

Ottawa. Dec. 12.-Sir Wilfrid Laurier
in his speech opening the naval debate
tonight dwelt at considerable length
on the proposition that Canada must
stand by England and rebuked those
Quebec politicians who. in opposing
him last year. said Canada could de-
pend on the Monroe Doctrine for safe
~ from foreign aggression. After re-
ferring TO the general dissatisfaction
over the outcome OF Canada's cares
when managed by British diplomatists
and 10 the fact that in Dominion man
aged cases Of international disputes
Canada had always won, he said:
The only conclusion we can draw is
that in these matters British diploma
lists were not so well informed as those
of the United States This shows con-
clusively that local matters are always
better dealt with by those who are re-
sponsiblc for local administration.
1T has been said in Quebec that we
could rely upon the Monroe Doctrine.

Washington, Dec. 12.-All sorts Of ru-
mors are af1oat regarding the Presi-
dents plans following the close Of his
term. The onl,' facts on which a ma
jority Of them are based are that some
one at some time has made such sug-
gestion TO Mr.. Taft or some member or
his family, and that some one has re-
piled noncommittslly, That's interest
ing" Mr. Taft has taken under serious
consideration the offer OF the Kent
chair of law at Yale, but has reached
no decision regarding it.
While nothing has been hnally de-
cided regarding the Presidents post
Inauguration plans, 1t is probable that
he will go to Georgia on March 4, prob
ably to Augusta, and there devote a
month TO rest and the formulation Of
plans for the future. Any predictions
beyond that month are at this time
pure surmise.
