In deep water off the harbor entrance she cast anchor, the flames creeping forward meanwhile from the after hold to a point amidships. Boats were swung out and lowered and the work of tak- tng off the passengers begun. As fast as a boat became loaded It proceeded to the government bar. dredge, Col. - P. S. Michie, to which the passengers were transferred. When the work began the forward decks of the Congress were black with terrified men, women and children. As the work proceeded the passengers be­ came calmer. , By dark all were off the Congress, and the Michie and the Tillamook headed for the harbor. The Congress by this time was completely wrapped in flames from stem to stern. The fire was first discovered about three o'clock In the afternoon. It broke out in the second hold In the steerage.

Artistry, Frivolity and Originality Have Been Combined With Wonder^ fill Results--Gorgeous Colors Rulas In Most Cases--Empire Styles Have Popularity. While acknowledging that the young bride of today is justified in selecting for her trousseau only those bits of lin­ gerie that are suitable for the fashions of the hour, still, one has pleasant memories of the preparation of a dozen of each, that was the suta and substance of a wedding chest of other days. / •' 1 One thififcs of the patience, eager­ ness and joy which went into the work of making those dozens of garments and the long hours spent by the family together, cutting, basting, stitching and putting on the handwork. It was always « task of love, this preparation of the uoderilnen for a girl in the fam­ ily, and all her intlmitte friends added theh share. But this affectionate task, like many other things that were once considered necessary in "the family Jlfe, has gone by the board. The shops do our work for us, and It Is all a part of the substitution of the radiator for the open fire, the elec­ tric stove for the charcoal and wood, the readymade gowns and suits for the home sewing room and the machine stitching for the threaded needle. Women Have More Leisure. In every way women are flndlng that drudgery Is loosening Its hold on their lives, and soon alt they will have to do Is give their time to social serv­ ice, reading and the lighter forms of pleasure. In the last few months the smart shops have made a strong effort to In- headgear which 1s neither cap n« crown; but which borrows a suggestk from each. It is made of a fine pattern .of white lace, with broad points ruak iilng upward and wlted to stand. Lightly brushing the tips of theaa points and floating away to thf» shoulders and back, is a veil of whilst tulle.

Gorgeous Colors for the House. t For the same trousseau there is a||*v. other negligee made of white Lieras. draped over American^ beauty satin. In this the arms and neck are also bare, but there Is a comfortable shoul­ der cape which keeps one from catd^ ing pneumonia. Vv This cape is caught at the bust witji an American beauty rose, and the laee which, falls away from the high waist­ line has two long points at the back which are weighted with crystal tas­ sels. Along with this negligee go silk stockings of American beauty pink and cloth of silver bedroom slippers. i One of the fanciful caps which am supposed to be worn by the bride-efcect • In the mornlng when she has breajfe- fast, Is a curious cross between i*- nurse's cap and a Brunhilda helmet. It fits well over the forehead, but leaves the back of the head In foil 'View. ' . :• y. Of Really Novel Design. The cap in question shoots upward from the forehead In broad panels of embroidered satin, and there Is a wired frill of white tulle that aspires to the heavens. It Is tied on the head, by .a band of silver ribbon which begins with a pink rose between the eyes apd finishes in a flaring bow at the nape at the neck. No one who goes out to buy the un- derlinen for a trousseau can be guided by what has been worn before or by what tradition once laid down as the proper equipment for a lady. It is best to go through a few of the shops which make a specialty of original under* - m JAPAN REASSURES THE U, f Informs State Department in Formal Not® That "Open Door" Policy Is Not Periled.' , '-.i: -<• Washington.
