NEW RECORDS ARE
 MADE BY DESTROY ERS

Pensacola, Fla, April 5.-A new world s record in night torpedo firing was made during the night in this harbor by the Tinted States destroyers Trappe and Mon aghsn. Every torpedo sent out rom the tubes of these vessels struck the bulls eve of the target. The entire group or five vessels made an average or ~ per cent of hits, which is above the average for even daylight firing under favorable weather conditions. Conditions were not good.
 The fleet of torpedo boats composed or four groups has been here for week engaged in firing with both torpedoes and guns.

 The present day dress of women has re- ceived an amount of notice worthy or
 better cause. One fashion expert made
 this commentary: Jean Worth, the french coutouier, Is bewailing the decrease 'in
 coutourier, is bewaillng the decrease "in dignity in clothes''-women's clothes. The
 modern woman in her striving after the
 latest novelty in dress or hat makes or
 herself a mirror of fashion-maybe-but
 to do this her clothes lose grace, sim
 plicity and purity of line.
 The women of this season and last this Parisan artist calls prisoners ''in ab- surdlv narrow skirts" They've forgotten how to walk, because it's been so many
 moons since it was possible for them to walk in comfort
 lust here we are reminded of the little girl who complained that her skirtband
 was too tight.
 well, Janet" her small sister retorted. | you can't 'spect to be comfortaoie ana stylish at the same time. Perhaps Monsieur Worth differs from | this expressed opinion. He thinks 1t Is of the first importance that one who as- pires to be smart must be comfortable. The Turkish lady sitting in her luxurious harem may be an admirable sight he comedies, but he says. "she undoubtedly lacks dignity" All freakish fashions must | necessarily be lacking in this desirable at | tribute of clothes. A walk in Charles street these cheerful spring days almost l converts us to the statement that the | clothes of yesterday had a dignity which | ours lack.
 I had in mind half a dozen old ladies | in black dresses of a vintage far removed | from this calendar year, and to see any | one of these as she makes her placid way in full skirt and a bodice with bouffant sleeves is to appreciate the picturesque ness of the old time visiting gown. The
 question suggests itself, Is it the gown or
 the wearer of 1t, lady of the old school, | that invests the garment with a dignity l that sets it far apart from this frivolous, | narrow skirted generation? We won | der.

reported that one difficulty In doing
tho work was that the wooden sewer
