The friction In the Washington body
had its inception prior even to the
national gathering in Boston last year
when Bouck, at that time recognized
state master, appeared before the pub
lie altar and pledged his allegiance to
the grange cause. Following the trial,
where he was found guilty but es-
capped with reprimand. he returned
to his own state, where it is alleged
he continued disloyal activities.
When National Master Lowell aus.
pended Bouck from office early In
July of this year. the rebelling group
recognized with the former state
master as their leader. Three months
later, the court injunction issued in
King county temporarily suspended
the insurgent activities.
BY unanimous vote the delegates
decided to meet in Kansas next year.

Experiences In London.

London. says a sprightly Washing
ton woman who is passing the winter
there. offers more opportunity for
experiences than any one spot in the
world. This lady tells of riding in
the park a warm sunny day recently
and seeing the Due of Orleans, whom
the legitimatists consider the right
full King of France, leading his horse
and talking volubly to his sister, the
dowager ex-queen of Portugal. Nei-
Their was attended even by a distant
1ackey. This same observer tells that
the haughtiest of London grande
DANES are not averse to riding in the
buses and that generals whose names
nave rung about the world go hither
and hence Juggling packages; in one
case she is sure that she detected
Gen. Byng carrying home his iaun-
dry. Another postwar symbol is the
disappearance of liveried retainers
within the great mansions as well as
on the equipages. Liveried and pow
dered servants passed from this cap
1tal as long ago as in 1915, but it was
deemed rather difficult matter to
produce this condition in old world
cities. where generations have worn
the livery and are quite proud of the
fact. But apart from military uni
forms and traditional fantastic cos
tunes like the beef-eaters who guard
the tower of London. the male at
tendant is drab and colorless in Lon
don as in Washington. Even the
famous retainers of Windsor and
other royal palaces discharge their
duties in garments which resemble
those used by hotel ushers and bell
boys.
But never were the British military
uniforms SO gay. the vivid red coat
so familiar in colonial pictures hav-
ing been revived in dozens of regi-
ments. whereas only the oldest for

thusiasm and approval. In the gray
days of December, the pranking
Manxmen were cheering sight and
their ancient drills and marches a
>ytTeat which London seemed to enjoy
as much as royal pageant Some of
the officers, however, object strenu-
ously to the conspicuousness of their
attire. and to the delicacy of the gar
ment in the matter of showing stains.
However, for this season at least, the
red will riot in all martial gather
ings. and London is very busy with
such, and will be until the grand
rally at Aidershot in June.

Artistic Lantern Effects.
A purely local effect in art are
those quaint little lanterns to be
seen on so many homes in the suburbs
Of the capital. with slides of hand
colored flowers usually snapped from
lights may be admired in Brookland
and Chevy Chase. and they are the
work of an artist who first takes
the photograph and then transfers
it to glass to be fitted into the deli
cate black tracery of the lantern.
Some are trailing clusters of azalea,
twining wreath-like across the cir
cular glass or the squares of it, as
the case may be.
Others are clusters of the splendid
wild orchid which is to be discov-
cred after diligent search on the
palisades of the Potomac and which
is wonderfully lovely as a trans
parency, the pink and yellow blend
ing SO well with the dark glowing
green of the leaves. Why, ask those
who have adopted this fad. have
plain. meaningless glass in your YES
tibule light when some blossoms
which recall the glories of the sum-
mer' may be had for little less eX-
pense? Laurel from Rock Creek
Park makes an acceptable trans
parency, and those who delight. in
their own cameras can take the pic
lures of it and afterwards have it
transferred to glass either for lamp
or for a window.
Branches of climbing roses are
ideal covering for an outside light.
and there is genuine pleasure for
the rose lover in seeing his blossoms
cared for and brought to perfection
through his own care, thus per-
petuated throughout the seasons.

The most picturesque Dr1dal rope
which originated this winter on this
side OF the ocean is, according to a
distinguished artistic of gowns. that
worn by Mrs. Paul Abbott. who. as
Miss Elise Everett. had made her de-
but in New York society just one year
on the date of her nuptia1s. December
Is. last. Mrs. Abbott is an exceedingly
clever amateur, actress, and had ap-
peared in all the theaters of Gotham
and it's environs where the non-pro-
fessional is permitted to shine. She
scored decided success in the must
cal comedy What Next?" and was
said to have been considering the offer
of prominent manager. when Mr..
Abbott turned her thoughts the usual
way. Mrs. Abbott designed her we'd
ding gown from a favorite picture of
a great Florentfne lady, and the COM
bination of the straight. severe medi-
eval lines with some modern touches
rendered this costume notable even
among the original creations which
have come from London and Paris
The material was soft but heavy ivory
satin, made in tile one-piece style,
with a bodice very high for these
days and edged with ermine, and then
embroidered in parcels front, back and
sides. The skirt was full, widening
from the waist and fell to the ankles.
But the veil was the feature to be re-
membered. It was one of those SPLEEN
did point de yenise shawls, fully three
yards wide and five long, gathered cap
shape about her face and edged with
orange flowers, and then falling in
biliowing masses into a train. which
would be acceptable even for court
presentations. The sleeves reached to
the wrists, gathered and fastened Off
in diamond puffs with heavy.cord and
then finished with ermine. Many of
the famous fashion journals are re-
producing this bridal robe as some
thing novel and lovely enough to
serve as a model. Mrs. Abbott is the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Leo Alexan-
der Everett of Park place. and her huis-
band is the son of the Henry H. Alb
bolts of Boston.
