Rion1 in vongross. Hero is tha explniiatlon:
In his conenxwlounl lutiors ho linn mmln
spicialty of army reorganization, hut has met
with much opposition. His plan Involve a
complete change of the regiment. Ho would
have It of threo ixittnllons, each commanded
by n major. This is substantially tho system
now in voguo In EuroM, where n regiment
may consist of 2,400 men, or 800 to tho bat
talion. Hut Senator Manderson propones to
have but twelve companies of fifty 111011 each
In timo of jhvico, with all tho facilities for
prompt oxpaiislou to a regiment of 1,'JOO men
in tho event of war. In Bhort, he adopts tho
familiar idea of a "erfect skeleton organiza
tion," to which recruits may instantly be
called and the regiment mndo effective in a
short timo, but rejects the regimenr.of 1,000.
During the civil war It often proved Impossl
bio for a colonel to command a whole regN
inent effectively, as at proseut organlnol, and
tho dlfllculty will bo vastly Increnswl by the
breech loailhig rifle, with the much more
rapid firing and tho longer allguxent which
will be found profitable. His plan would In
volve the advancement of fifty captains to
majors, 100 first lieutenants to captains and a
160 second lieutenants to Unit, while 200 now
seco.nl lieutenants would bo commissioned
all this at an extra annual cost of H'rhnps
$2,000,000. Nevertheless, savs Senator Man
derson and his military exerieucu gives
him tie right to speak with some authority
It is necessary to maintain nil thu machinery
of n complete nrmy In perfect readiness, for
war always comes when no ono wants or ex
pects It. Ho will pres his bill for reorganiza
tion, and it will doubtless lio a leading subject
of Interett in tho present congress.

I found ono tho other day, just finished
for n nowiy married lady, of cadet gray

stitching nt tho sides nud n drnpery of
enamel bluo velvet, which, drawn In
short tnblier form ncross tlio front, fell
in tho back in n sash to tho liottom of tho
skirt. Tho front of tho basquo had volvot

model of siniplo richness and elegance.
A gown for a young matron which was
just flnishod hnd tho back laid in deop
kilts of black niolro nnd narrow pnnol
on each sido of embossed black velvet.
Tho front wns of rich plain velvet in
shawl drapery. Tlio basque was per

providing tho weathor is fair. If not, I
do not doubt thnt somo tears will bo

Another dress to bo worn on that mo
mentous occasion was just having its
final "trying on" ns I nrrivcd.and it was
so handsomo that I Instantly seized its
spirit, and hero it Is. Tlio dress was of
moss green faillo, witha flvo inch band of
olivo green velvot all around tho bot

the drapery folds over in curtain stylo.
Above tho band of velvet was n row of
crocheted trimming in dark green sad

Thomas Y. Crowell ft Co., Now York.
Both sitting room and parlor nro In frout.
Thu dining room Is placed Immisllately in tho
rear of tho sitting room. Thus wo havo two
rooms Jn frout anil two In tho rear. This Is
tirnctlrally a wpinre houwi. Tlio old habit
has been to placo the stairway along ono sldo
of tho parlor In the hnll, which served ns a
passngoway rom the front to tho rooms Im
mediately hi tho rear. This distribution of
halls Is what tins thrown tlio sitting room
back of tho mrlor.

In the plan here kIvcu tho change has lieeu
iniiilo so that tho hall has relatively thu H.11110
H)sitlon that hnd tlio sitting room In tho past,
though it is by uo means as large. It is es
sentially a stair hall, and luclileutally a pas
sage. As placed, wo may enter it from tho
piulor, sitting room, dining room or kltoheu.
Its H)sltlou Is central. There nro two doors
Imtwcoii this stair hall and tho kitchen. Tho
central ositiou of the stairwny has other
advantages than thoso Just staUsl. It mnkes
long halls on thu si-coud floor entirely uiiuo
cewrnry. As will bo seen by looking at tho
floor plan, it gives two good bedrooms in
front.
Tho dining room Is Immediately hi tho rear
of tin sitting room. There may Ihj sliding
doors connecting theso two rooms. Ono door
three nml a half fisit wiilo usually mnkes n suf
ficiently largo oHuing for tho dining room
connection. There nro sliding doors between
thu parlor nud sitting room, nnd dining room
and sitting room, as shown. Thu kitchen lias
thu ndvmitnguof a certain amount of isola
tion from tho rest of tho houso, for tlio reason
that there are two doors between it nnd any
other room. '1 ho pantries nre nrrnuged with
refeieucu to their most convenient use. In

tho kitchen pantry there nro places for a ro
friKerator, flour bin, bread board and cup
board. Tho dining room pantry is a china
closet, with glass doors above anil clowyl doors
below. Tlio doors connecting tho dining room

On tho second floor thoro Is a hall about
fourteen feet long, from which we pass to
two Ixxlrooms In front, two iu the roar, the
bathroom nnd tho store oloaot. Each room
Is Independent. Thoy may bo connected 0110
with tho other ns family necessities suggest.
Tho store closet Is accessible from tho hall, nn
such closet should bo. This makes it nvniln

is directly over tho kitchen. The cost of tho
houso is nlKiut ('-V'tOO.
A ClrHcfiil Writing Tuble.
WntTINO TAni.E.
Hero Is a suggestion of a lady's writing
tablo pure and simple. Tho principal feat
ure of tho thing is the inclosing, by means of
n fan, of tho stationary cabinet on tho table
top. This elegant bijou contrivance forms a
refreshing alternative to tho oft repeated
curtain element now so commonly used ns a
reeesn dust uxcltidur. Tho ohloui; panel, Just
above, might consist of a Itnrtolozzi tinted
print, framed in by a broad band of silk or
plush. This class of treatment is now "tho
rage," and makes a welcome change from
the beveled glass plat so frequently ro
sorted to for this puriioso.
