Underneath it is braced by a lining of stiffly starched muslin and inside, up to the k-ees, are sewed a great many overlapping flounces of silk muslin, edged with lace or rows of little varfegated paiettes. Such a jupe as this needs of course more decoration than its own graceful contours supply, s0 when the costum> is destin=d for a young person it s plentifully over-draped with one of the half dozen rew rorts of jow- eled, spangled, or beaded vellings that have grown out of the loag popularity of ch ffon.

GLITTERING TISSUES.

Where these wre chicfly applied is about the bodices of evening toilets, in sleeves, each as big as a respectable summer cloudiet, and in bodies that bag all around, falling over high close folded ribbon girdles. Be of one thing assured, =ays a dress- maker of renown, where a petticoat is not draped it will be slashed, or its seams deeo- ted and the slashing comes in the form of two long hip panel The debutante's gown shows once "Tis stralght how it fs BLUE EMBROIDERED WITH ROSES. — done, for her skirt is of ivery white silk, opened up on either hand to show white silk illusion embroidered onto white satin with silver beads. On her waist masses of the illusion show an iaterwoven silver thread, at spaces ot six Inches, and over all its bout- fante loveliness fits a venctian vest of silk, treated similarly as that on the panels, This is held over the vest by a corded ornament of pearls and silver beads on white silk. WHITE SATIN, Tho chief end and aim of every dress- maker s to use these filling materials over close fitting bodfes of silk and satin, that the Hght shiniag through may show the exceed- ing slenderness of every wearer, in spite of her streaming draperies. Now and again, however, local popular fashion takes the power right out of the dress makers' hands, and all of their own notion the dcbutantes are affecting white satin this season. They profess much in favor of satin that has an odd watered tripe in it, or is woven, to shade in the folds, from pure white to a cream tint or a steely glow. Satin is over old for girls, but so they will have it, the skirt em- broidered upon the seam to hide the joining of the goods, and worn with a bodice fairly drowned in lace, Tho older and deeper colored the lace the more approved its efiect and to remark that there are fifteen or twenty yards of lace on a single ball gown walst is to excite enviable envy in the young woman who acknowledges only to ten or twelve. Artists of fashion hold up thelr hands in French despair at this wiltulness and want of taste and at the Tule that says no nccklace shall be worn round the neck itself, but that one end of a string of pearls should be eaught low on the left shoulder with a very decorative brooch, the other end high on the right shoulder and the loop of the string must needs be long enough to lie in one's lap when sitting down. p WHITE THE VOGUE. Yet the good counsels of those in authority do prevail in many things and first of all in the suggestion that white be worn more than GREEN GAUZE AND VIOLETS. ever this winter. Women of all ages and avolrdupols will wear it, and persons of m: turer years are going fo give white velvet another trial, because It Is becoming glorious through its embroidery. Nothing seen in ve-month equals the skirts they welling of velvel; first cut, then sewed to Ait and lastly handed to the needlewoman, who works on the breadths in fine rococo’ style and bunches of roses, wreaths and flur- poppies, or masses of rlet geraniums. ‘There is a lovely chrysophrase green lately talked of, In lusterless peau de sois and meant to combine with yellow, as it does, with astonishing harmony when one wees & ice all over el \Nusion bagging tight higl belt w canary velvet and the skirt in long poluts curling down unevenly from the ns for dancing | MIN.

Some of them are pretty little pearls, set in gold rims, some of valuable jewels, and to follow the very latest little whimsical notion a pair of tiny cuff links catch the two sides of the glove wrist together. The links are gold, set with stones and have open a sufficient’ space to show a pretty blue veined wrist beneath, It s about the not Irreproachable shoulders of still lively mammas that the black and white ostrich feather is going soon to kindly curl. Clusters of them will fit over the shoulder point where no sleeve is used, and bodices will be trimmed with black and white chiffon, edged and lined with a curly feather trimming, not more than a half inch wide. ~An exceedingly nice use of this feather trimming is made on the delicate little wraps that women will carry into the ball room and opera boxes with them. These are capes fa ed of somoe gauzy white goods just big enough to cover the opening of a decollete waist. They have high collars made of long white feathers, to gather protectingly about the throat, while the four or smx ruffied falls of chiffon are bordered with just the narrow curling edge of the feathers. There are in- tricate’ bows of tulle to tie all this under the chin, and hang somewhat like cravats ends over the bust. Almost pretticr than the capes are the ball room comforts, made of one width of liberty tissue four yards long. This Is edged with a double quilling of lace or feathering and the ends are gathered up to be finished by big balls of white ostrich feather tips, looking like snowy pon-pons. FANNY ENDERS. MILLIONS FOR A DANCE. Immense S Spent in Decorating Swell Ball Rooms. The splendors of the recent balls at New- port are all the more remarkable when you reflect that twenly years ago there was not a private ball room in this country. Today not a modern ‘“palace” but has ome. The first ball rooms were built by New York mil- lionalres. Now the woman of wealth and fashion 1s seriously crippled in her career of would-be leadership unless sho has a ball room of her own. The first magnificent private ball, aside from fancy dress affairs, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, was given by Mrs. Willlam C. Whitney in the ball room of her New York house shortly after Mr. Whitney's term as secretary of the navy. The house had originally a large loft, which the money of Mrs. Whitney turned into a great, handsome room. The floors were polished, stained-glass windows set in, alcoves bullt and superb decorations and frescoes added. That set the rage for private ball rooms, and from that time on Delmonico’s was used for public balls only. And the houses that had been throwing drawing rooms, reception rooms and hallways “into one” for a ball felt very old-fashioned indeed. The Whitney ball room has been closed for two years, but it will be opened again this winter. It 1§ a beautiful room, more square than ball roorhs are, and very cozy in alcoves and tiny ednservatories. When It _was planned Mrs.' Whitney sald to a New York florist: “I want you to assist me in building my ball room. floral decoration and have the ball room made 50 all is possible.” The florist thought and planned and studled. Finally he hit upon a fine color scheme, worn by Bernhardt in Camille. The gown was a study fu black and yellow, and the florist knew that these colors are the only ones that can be relied upon to light up well, and that the decorations of the room were partly in gold, The florist consulted with his patroness. “I am golng to place a delicate screen work over your entire walls,” he said. “‘The walls are gold and white. Upon the sereen I shall place yellow roses, as many as are needed, to cover ‘the walls, Only yellow roses, nothing more." A HALL OF YELLOW ROSES. When the dance night came and the guests stepped into the ball room there was a mur- mur of delight. They found themselves in a great hall of yellow roses, while over thelr heads, at the side of them, flashing before the electric lights and disappearing into con- sorvatories were blackbirds. Three thousand lackbirds it took to fill the room with them s they flew! The decoration is one that Miss Whitney likes, and which she will preserve when, as Mrs. Almeric Hugh Paget, she gives the richest bridal ball of the season. She has seen plans for new touches in the room and las approved them. But only as much as this is known. The crowning achievement of a ball room, after its size and floral possibilities have been considered, is its alcoves. The more the bet- ter. The famous Newport ball room of Oli- ver H. Perry Belmont abounds in these nooks. The ball room is upstairs, over his stable, which is bullt like a villa, with bed rooms and living rooms. The ball room takes up the entire top floor. Its rafters are left exposed, but rich caryings cover them from end to end. Its windows are all bay win dows, and In their recesses are the cozy nooks that make a ball room pleasanter than a public hall, The upper part of Mr. Belmont's windows can all be removed, leaving only a beautiful light wood lattice for ventilation. Palms and rugs fill the floor space of the much-prized nooks, and three chairs are always there, one for each of two people and one for the chap- eron. This ball room s always trimmed with wild flowers. Its ceiling 1s very high and is fes- tooned in barvest home fashion at the an- nual Newport ball.

The sama stone steps lead to And the same At other times closed, showing no nd each family has state dining room is used, the big paneled doors ar trace of ever opening, Its own small. dining room. The ball lies upstairs. It is reached by a small ele- vator in the elder Mrs. Astor’s house. It is half n one house and half in the other. Connecting the two halves are a series of pretty alcoves. The separate halves are far enough apart to parmit two orchestras, which is the ambition of all who give private balls One orchestra plays when the other c and each side of the ball room has its rate intermission with the conservatories be- tween, The plan of decorating this room must al ways be the same, as the walls are planned for only one decoration. They are rose- tinted in panels, with gold strips between. A bank of green leaves, palms and plants is intended to surround the room. The green plants rise up nearly the length of the gold paneling and terminate in festoons of pink roses. The whole room s beautiful in pink, gold and enough white to set off both colors The central idea of Cornelius Vanderbilt’s ball room is a great Moorish lamp which hangs suepended in the middle of the room. The ceiling is forty feet high, and the lamp reaches from the highest peint in the center of the room to within three feet of the head of the dancers. It is a round lamp and the ball room is round in effect, preserving the Moorish idea of proportion. Everything must be rounded. ~ The small alcoves are circles, and the celling, instead of lying flat, curves upward in efect. A very novel thing about this ball room is he adjoining apartments. It opens into three large rooms. One Is the grand salon which faces Fifth avenue, another is the state dining hall, dnd the third room is a very large smoking room, with large window seats and Oriental settles all around the room. Should dancing couples tire of the ball room they can wander in any direction, except that of the smoking room, across whose threshold no woman ever penetrates. The smoking room is kept exclusive for the master; like the Sandringham room of the prince of Wales, never crossed by a woman for thirty years. FLOWERS NECESSARY. The plans of a ballroom are always liberally ornamented with flowers; for, no matter how large a rcom is, unless it takes adornment prettily, it is not a succss. This Moorish baliroom has sloping sides thit are adm rably adapted for filling in with plants. They can be placed in tho slop> in graded sizes, the largest plants at the rear. The favorite flowers for this slope are orchids and ferns. The orchids fill in the recasses and hang from the walls in wooden bexes, and the ferns stand below.

W A MUSICAL DER. Remnrkable Genius of a San Fran- cixco %irl Developed Abroad. In far-away Leipsic and Berlin a San Fran- olsco girl is making a decided sensation and 1s the talk of the town. This particular girl is very young—only 18—and, according to the reports, she is more than talented, has genius, in fact. Her name is Miss Carrie Bowes and she is a San Franciscan born and bred, according to the Examiner. When she was too little to climb the plano stool herself, apd had to be lifted to It, she could play. Later she practiced three hours a day at the time when dolls are the highest delight of most chil- dren, and when she was 12 she had played at_numerous concerts and was making de- clded progress. It was in 1889 that d'Albert came to San Francisco with Sarasate. Carrie Bowes was then an enthusiastic child of 12 and a mu- siclan to the tips of her pliant fingers. Her mother was a widow with four children to support, but she believed in letting her child hear the best masters and look her to hear d'Albert. The next morning the little girl, armed with a basket of flowers, called on the maestro at the Palace hotel. He was not up and did not wish to receive visitors. ‘“Oh, tell him it is only a little girl,” she said. So he had her admitted and asked her to play for him. When she had finished he told her that her talent warranted a foreign edu- cation and promised her all sorts of assist- ance it she ever came to Europe. Since then he has abundantly fulfilled his promises. In 1590 Mrs. Bowes took the little girl to Europe. They went directly to Berlin, where the American child wished to take the exam- ination to enter the high sehool in music. A couple of months before the opening of the academy remainod, and the child utilized the time by picking up as much German as possible. The prescribed age fon entering is 16, which she lacked by thres years, but an exception was made In her favor. The little San Franciscan was one of eighty candidates. In a prett is of broken German and English she answered the ques- tions of the grave professors. The other applicants were frightened to death. She was only 13, debonnair wnd unconscious, and skipped about the room. BShe was one of the thirteen whe d successfully and stood Afth in rank. ‘he professors do not tell who has passed until some days afterward, but they made an exception of Mrs, Bowes, and told her she need not worry.
