Flashai in The passengers and officer of the Anchor liner Perugia, which arrived at New York Wednesday from Marseilles, Leghorn and Naples, think they were saved from running Into shallow water, and jierhaps going aground, by a wonderful phenomenon on last Tuesday night As the ship was heading down the coast, preparing to turn to the westthe ward, after twisttlng Montauk, Nantucket lightship's Hashes appeared In the sky In a brilliant mirage. Although Captain Johnston and his officers had been crossing the Atlantic for years, they never beheld such a bright mirage, or one so long continued. Rome of the superstitious passengers became considerably excited. When first seen the Perugia was sixty nautical miles from the lightship, the electric lanterns of which are feet above mean high water. There could be no mistaking the light The flashes In the heavens were an exact counterpart of those on the vessel two fixed white lights showing for twelve seconds, followed by an eclipse of the lens lanterns for three seconds. On seeing the unusual flashes In the sky Captain Johnston ordered soundings taken. From what the lead showed he deemed it prudent to put oft and ordered the Perugias head turned more to seaward. Under ordinary circumstances the lights of the Nantucket lightship can be seen thirteen nautical miles. The Perugia brought one cabin passenger and 1,103 steerage passengers. fifty-sev- en IOWA FEDERATION OF LABOR. la., May 10.

Word comes from Paris, the source of feminine fashions, that the fullness of the skirt hus not yet reached Its limit tendency to exThere seems to be pand the volume of the skirts, to the utter despair of all stout women. It seems, after all, that those who predicted, when the skirts began to become fuller, that the new fashion would not last long and would certainly not go beyond a most moderate At first the limit, were mistaken. skirts merely showed a suggestion of fullness by flaring at the bottom. After a while the zone of fullness began to extend to the region of the knees and step by step the fullness ascended to the hip region. Now, so It Is reported from Paris, there Is every reason to believe, that the process of gradual expansion will not stop at the lower purt of the hip but that after a while the fullness will begin right at the waistband. Rtout women are at a great disadvantage in following the new toshlon. Even at the time when the fulness did not reach above the knee a short, stout woman, with modish skirts, would resemble nothing more closely than a big bell, with Its rim widely curved out What are they going to do when full skirts, with the fullness beginning at the waistband, are the style? They will have but two alternatives. They have the choice between following the fashion and wearing skirts that make them look as big and clumsy as a barrel, or sacrifice stylishness for the sake of securing a more graceful appearance. Thes lender and graceful woman, on the other hand, could not possibly find any style more becoming to her than the skirts of the present fashion. The effect of the graceful lines formed by the judiciously full skirts upon a slender woman Is exquisite and far for prettier than anything shown many years. There is, however, also an economic side to the new 'style. It is more expensive than the style In vogue two or three years ago. When fashion decreed thut the skirts must be also skin tight. For the new style skirt a great deal more material Is required than fur the skirt of two years ago and that alone has caused a considerable Increase In the cost of dresses. But that Is not all. The trimming and ornamentation of skirts Is Infinitely more elaborate than It used to be and as many of the materials used, like lace, are quite expensive, the maIn Increase the amount of large terial required for trimming under the new regime, means a corresponding Increase In the cost of modern skirts. Some of the latest models Imported from Paris are designed to produce a regular bell effect. They are fuller at the hips thun below the hips and drawn in markedly Just above the knees, flaring out again below the knees, reaching their greatest fullness at the bottom. There Is a decided tendency toward Introducing odd and picturesque, sometimes even bizarre, effects and the means used to obtain that result vary greatly between the Introduction of unusual materials, the use of bixarre forms and the employment of methods of ornamentation oritnal and qpaint. Some of the costumes are actually dowdy. Many of the costumes contain peculiar features of styles belonging to various periods and which do not always harmonise very well. It must be said that the result of those combinations Is not always happy and artistic and frequently betrays decidedly bad taste. One of the most striking features is the fact that In the trimming and ornamentation of these modern dresses every resource of the dressmaker's art is drawn upon and sometimes a doxen different means are used In combination. There may be insertions, hand laces, ribbons, corded And the baby a cross little thing; embroidery, But a nuisance I never shall greet with gatherings, frills, ruffling, gauffering, and stitches of every kind and descripa smile Is the cleaning that comes with the tion employed In combination on one and the same skirt.

White Is, of course, always the favorite color for bridal dresses, but this year It will also be used a great deal for the dresses of bridesmaids. Crepe, mousseline de sole and chiffon cloth, also net gowns, will be popular. All these materials are used over a foundation of taffeta with an underlining of chiffon. Although white will probably be more popular for bridesmaids this year than In former years, there will be many weddings at which the bridesmaids will not be uniformly dressed In white. Soft tints will also be worn, but for the sake of harmony it will he required that every bridesmaid adhere consistently to the tint once chosen by her. That means that the tint of the material of their gown must be 'repeated not only In the laces and trimmings, but also In their hats, muffs, etc. It must be considered, however, that pale tints are not becoming to every complexion, while white may be worn without detriment by nearly every woman, no matter what her complexion may be. The flowers worn by the bridesmaids add just a touch of color to relieve the monotony and to brighten the general effect Whether It Is the friendly feeling for the Japanese, which has been reawakened among the American by the war with Russia, or whether there are other reasons for It, would probably be difficult to determine, but it is a fact that klmonas. to which the women of this country are Indebted to the dainty women of Japan, are becoming more popular than ever. They are shown in various materials, among them In lawn, crepon, albatross and silk and all of them are pretty and comfortable. There Is one difference, however, the patterns are no longer as brilliant and gaudy as they used to be, but show subdued colors and pleasing harmony. ESTELLE CLAIREMONT. A Positive Necessity.
