The long coat was entirely of josee- na, while the upper part of the gown was of gray satin crepe and the lower part of the cloth. Both coat and gown were embroidered in a combi- nation of gray silks and oxidized sil- ver thread, the coat displaying em- broidery in V shape down the front, underarm seams and a pointed panel of embroidery in the back. A high collar was used on the coat, while a scarf collar finished the gown. The ensemble was especially noticeable for the subtlety of its shade and weave, the joséena, a sort of cross between duvetyn and kasha, being in a soft gray shade slightly tinged with tan. Hat Matches Suit. Mrs. Coolidge's hat matched her suit perfectly and was of soft gray milan with a rather high crown and narrow brim rolled slightly at the left side and varying about an inch FIREMEN ON SANTA FE TAKING STRIKE BALLOT Unwilling to Meet Conditions De- clared Required for 5 Per Cent Pay Raise.

The firemen met in a closed session and no statement. was issued. The situation results from the de- mand of the men for a 5 per cent in- crease, which was recently put into effect by the Southern Pacific. The Santa Fe is unders.ood to be willing to sign the new contract provided the men will make certain concéssions in working conditions now in effect. The firemen have refused to grant these concessions. The men invoived are employed on the lines from Albu- querque, N. Mex., to San Erancisco and Los Angeles. . Pope Receives Cardinal 0’Connell.

As a student at Anherst College 1895 President Attends Opera, Varying Evening Routine Although the President did not change from his usual morning routine, he did vary a little in his usual night habits last night by remaining up more than an hour later than jis his custom. This was due to the fact that the President attended the opera at the new .Auditorfum and did not return to the White House until nearly 10:30 o'clock, which was more than half an hour past his usual bedtime. Col. Coolidge, the President's father, and Mrs. A. 1. Goodhue of Northampton, ~ Mrs. Coolidge's mother, guests at the White House, did not accompany the presidential party to the opera. Besides Col. Coolidge. Mrs. Good- hue and young John Coolidge, the other house guests at the White House today are: Mrs. R. M. Hills, who lives across the street from the Coolidge home in Northampton and is an intimate friend; Mrs. Laura Skinner of New York, an old friend of the President and his wife; President Olds of Amherst College, Ralph Jdemenway of Northampton, a former law partner of the Presi- dent's, and Mr. and Mrs. Frank ‘W.

" Whex efentered Off for an earl MOt ride ! " Dog Leads Escort | For President, But | Loses Way at Turn With a stately and dignified dog trot, a black and white bull ter- rier led the police escort down ! Pennsylvania avenue this morning when President Coolidge was en route to the Capitol. The dog apparently was an un- invited leader of the procession, but no one made a move to eject him. He continued on down Penn- sylvania avenue, casting super- cilious glances over his shoulders now and then at the gaping crowds, but maintaining a general profound air of importance and gravity as he trotted along just out of reach of the hoofs of the foremost police steeds. He turned the wrong way at Peace Monument, however, and the procession had advanced too far for him to catch up by the time he discovered his mistake. Police fafled to learn his iden- tity, and it is probable that the name of the real leader of Presi- dent Coolidge’s procession to the Capitol today will never be known. e HIGH TRIBUTE IS PAID TO COOLIDGE BY FRANCE President Doumergue Expresses Congratulations of Nation and of Himself. By the Associated Press. PARIS, March 4.—President Dou- mergue cabled his congratulations to President Coolidge today.

With nothing to do, the House re- cessed from 10:15 to 10:30. | Before the recess, Representative Luce, Republican, Massachusetts, pre- sented to the House a report, adopted today Dy the veterans’ committee,| giving the results of a country-wide survey of service hospitals. It said that on the whole the veterans' hos- pitals “are in_excellent shape” and that all cause for complaint had been called to the attention of the Vet- erans’, Bureau. Meanwhile, in the Senate, warnings by President Cummins being with- out effect to restore order, the ser- geant-at-arms was requested to “direct” Senators to take their seats. Much of the confusion was due to the fact that all Senators were seated on the east side under the inaugural seating arrangement. Conversing to- gether the nolse they created was considerable. Last Effort at World Court. A last-minute effort by Senator King, Democrat, Utah, to get Sen action on his world court proposal was blocked by Senator Moses, Re- publican, New Hampshire, one of the irreconcilables on the Versailles treaty. Senator King moved to go into exzcutive session to consider the measure, put Senator Moses replied with a motion to lay the: resolution on the table, and a rollicking chorus of “ayes” put it aside. The House devoted practically all its time today to valedictory ad- dresses. It agreed to the conference report on the second deficiency ap- propriation bill carrying many thou- sands of dollars for important Dis- trict projects, including the.$2,600,000 school-bullding fund from the Dis-| trict. surplus to make a start on the five-y school buflding pro- gram.

He spoke feelingly of leaving the colleagues with some of whom he has served for 12 years and said he is going out “Into the cold world.” House Leader Longworth made his last speech as party leader, declaring that he has come to the conclusion that the BEuropean bloc system in government cannot exist. He urged that there should be a strong, but not too strong democracy, and a stronger Republican party willing to accept responsibilities and then if it tailed to meet the consequences. Seated on the House floor were three women—M\rs. Alice Robertson of Oklahoma, a former member; Mrs. Mae Nolan of California, who retired and Mrs. Mary T. Norton of New Jersey, who as a Democrat will Dbe one of the two women in the next House. In the Senate, however, after the re- cess, there seemed to be no disposi- tion to sing swan songs, and the hi- larity which usually marks the close of a session was conspicuously lack- ing. There was the usual milling about on the floor. The governors of several States were on the floor. Both Speaker Glilett of the House and President Cummins of the Senate were kept busy during the last hours signing bills so they could be laid be- fore the President before noon. As one of his last officlal acts as President of the Senate, Mr. Cummins appointed' & commisslon to continue the investigation of the proposed St. Lawrence to Gulf waterway.
