 The first reports gave First Officer Kenny and Second Officer Cocomo among the dead, but the revised list does not give them, and 1t is ex- pected that in the confusion their names were added to the list of dead by mistake. The passengers and crew deny that any explosion tore the decks off, but that when the stern of the ship sank the bow of the Sampson was naturally lifted high in the air and that it was this which made many believe that the boat had been lift ed by an explosion.

VARIETY IN BLOUSE MODELS.
Idea for Most Attractive Combination
That Anyone With Taste VIII
Be Able TO Fashion.

Some OF the new and costly blouse
models are made OF white Indian mus.
lin Of cobweb texture, real yalen-.
ciennes and motifs of Maltese lace.
One OF these models had loose fronts
which were crossed on the breast.
Tiny hand-run tucks appeared on the
transparent muslin, then there were
insertions OF old yellow valenciennes
and these insertions and tucks were
incrusted with effective motifs Of Mall
tese lace.
The combination was exceedingly at
tractiye and the model was to be worm
over little underbodice made Of flesh
pink chiffon. Such blouse would look
beautiful IL worn in conjunction with
an afternoon gown In midnight blue
taffeta or black charmeuse. The skirt
would probably be draped and there
would certainly be a picturesque coatee
which would show of the dainty
blouse to perfection.
Flesh pink chiffon is very much
used In Paris as lining for fine lin
gerie blouses. The color is so delicate
that 1t hardly suggests pink at all.
Nevertheless, 1t throws out the pat
tern Of the lace to perfection.

In Making French Knots.

II Is much more satisfactory to use
coarse thread In making French knots
because then the cord or thread need
not be wound so many times around
the needle. and. therefore. Is not SO
apt to twist and knot In the wrong
place. 1t Is always better to use un-
twisted cord for French knots for the
same reason. French knots used as
filler or outline are very effective for
