coIored Rope Rugs.

In Paris one lives out OF doors so much
that there are always new creations fol
the gardens and porches and the many
] terraces in the country where one finds
the table set for meal
Among these new things Is a large cir
cular rug made in a simple design Of col
ored rope.
The natural hempen color Is used fol
| the border and the circular center, and
| between are huge sailor knots of red oil
purple or blue rope. The effect Is most
attractive, and you can imagine how well
such a floor covering looks in an oren-
air dinlng-room or on stone terrace
where afternoon tea is served.
There Is no reason why these rugs can
not be Scopied by women who like such
things and know where to get them lone.
Rope is easily bought and easily dyed In
the preferred colors, and there are places
in any town where sailorlike work Il
done.
Remember the rug is open in its design.
1t resembles a coil of rope and loops such
as one would see on the deck Of yacht
1t may have been first used on some one s
yacht and rapidly have become the fash
ion for country houses.
A German Importation which has been
transplanted into Paris is the huge UNI
brella made Of striped awning and ma
terial edged with deep fringe, which Is
mounted on heavy standard and at
tached to the middle of the table in the
garden. 1t Is also used over reading ta-
bles that are placed under arbors. for
continental Europe does not care to sit
indoors whenever 1t is possible to sii
outdoors.
The ordinary umbrella is of red and
white, or yellow and white striped awning
cloth, but at Marines one sees these
umbrellas in brilliant Futurist colors
with heavy cotton fringe and brass
standard.

ANACOSTIA RAILWAY
EXTENSION PLANNED
Electric Line May Run to Giesboro
Over Tracks of B. & 0.-Hoboes
En- Route South.

The question Of extending the street
railroad from Congress Heights to Giles
boro Point is taking definite shape. A
trolley may be placed over the tracks OF
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad between
Anacostia and Giesboro. Two or three
switching points would make 1t practi-
cally unobstructed.
Edward Blaine, sachem OF Mineols
Tribe. No. II. Improved Order of Red
Men. OF Anacostia. conducted the meet
ing Of that organization last night in the
local Masonic Hall.
The police of the Eleventh police pre-
cinct in Anacostia have received COM
plant from Twining City that hoboes
bound for the South are very frequent
these days. A few arrests have been
made. The number of tramps now going
Southwarc is much smaller than 1t used
to be In former years. Some Of the
older railroad men state that the yards
were full OF tramps a few years ago

The defendants were now hard pressed.
Five companies of the Twenty-ninth
Massachusetts, and two companies of the

in to aid them. The newly arrived re-en-

the Confederates were flung back from
the parapets with heavy loss.

Sert Jeremiah Maloney and Private
Joseph S. Manning. both of the Twenty

ored for capturing Confederate battle

The fighting on the walls of the fort
lasted about twenty minutes. As it SUBJ
sided one company OF the Twenty ninth
Massachusetts, and one of the Second
Michigan were ordered to sally out on
each side OF the work and attack the
Confederates in flank. Complying with
instructions they delivered a simultane-
Gus assault on the attacking force. and.
rushing along the ditch. rounded I'D fully
200 prisoners.
Gen. Longstreet, learning of the fail
ure OF the attack ordered his men to
fall back to shelter. Hundreds of Con-
federate wounded and dying were left in
front of the fort. and their cries of
anguish won for them the heartfelt sym
pathy of the Federals. Gen. Burnside
proposed a truce in order that Long
street might remove his dead and wound
ed within his lines. kongstreet accepted
his offer, andin a few hours the horrible
traces of the mornings fight had been
removed.

loss. Their failure was due rather to
faulty management than to any lack Of

deeds of individual heroism in a bloody
