THE TURF.
Handicapper is Barred.
New Orleans, Feb. S.-Nutt's skill-

dict to a head In the Merchanta
Handicap, worth $1,920 to the win-
uer, on rsaturday afternoon. Ida Led-
ford. Malay and Menace, all at fives,
were equal favorites in the betting.
The Norris cast-off, theice, set a hot
pace for tax furlongs:, and then died
out, yielding- !trot place to Jessie Jar-
boe, who had been in close attend-
ance all the way. The mare tired in
the stretch and Prince Blazes, com-
ing through fast at the end, flayed
just ground enough on the final turn
to land him a winner bet' a head.
In the two-year-old scramble
Fairylike, Offset and Julia Lisle, the
last named a topheavy favorite and
backed from three to eight to five,
raced the full half mile in a fate°
breakaway. Lyne, Howell and Rich-

pended foe n. week and fined $100.
The stewards were so dissatisfied
with Handloapperai performance in

Interest, such as ie the setting of

portance of variety. But in the mat-
ter of dress menu it is not always
so quickly understood.
The best dressers in the world,
those who hold raid inaentain it re-
putation for dressing well, continu-

the year, are thee° who manage al-
ways to wear something novel, not
necessarily new, but re -arranged
tastefully, tee as to seem new.
Striking articlea are by no means
the beet for this'. There are many
reaeons why the garment known as
"striking" Is not to .be advised, be-
sides the fact that it is not in good
taste. One of the main reasons is
that It Is too dietinetive, too easily
reeognized, too much in character, as
it were, and not euffigently mind°,
twilit to be worn many times.
A bodice of sea green, for example,

bodices and cam bring out the sea
green only ouoe in it while and al-
ways to a different audience. On
the otter hand, a bodice of black,
suppose the new black moire, per -
!tape tut in the Gibson fashion with
broad plaits to widen the shoulders,
could be worn it hundred times and
trimmed with green, if green were
desired. There are adjustable green
yokes, cuffs that can be slipped on,
pa.nole of green that enliven the
front and standing collar of green.

To ftecuro an amount Of catchiness
in dream, to look always well and at-
1ractlyely gowned, a woman should
pay attention to three law:
1. Neatnees in dress.
2. Variety in dress.
3. Attention '.to detaie
Neatness In Dress.
The firsa ete these is the most diffi-
cult and one of the most expensive.
Neatness in the twentieth century,
1902 sense, does e•cit mean mere
brushing and'binding •' it pertains to
the characteristics ofthe gown.
The immaculate band epee the col-
lar, °hanged once or twice a day,
the marvellously neat sleeve cliff and
ruching% be they bell, turnover, or
wristbands, the finishings of the
gown, these distinguish the eosturee
as neat.
Variety in dress is something not
ell can accomplish, but all can come
very Bear to it. Ingenuity will take
the place of quantity, and tenor
echemes will make an old gown seem
like new.
It Is to be a black and white sea-
s/on, and for this the woman of not
many gowns will egleice. 'With black

safe in buying and in making up
a spring gown in these shades.
selecting a spring suit, it
is web to remember that In spite
of all fashionable predictions, pur-
ple, heliotrope, violet anti mauve
come in with each March. Not more
regularly do the March winds blow
than these colors appear. Purple':
was once practically the only color
of spring, Just as brown is the color
of fall, and it is still the one that
is most worn -purple and its close
relative, blue.
In the purples and blues and all
the shades of' heliotrope there are
newegoods that have no woolly sur -
lace, but are more of the nature
of tweed. There is a coarse oat -
side, which is very attractive from
tile standpoint of wear, and at
sight arm can understand that it
will not attract dust, but will
shake out w•ell. --
The Scotch plaids, the homespuns,
the Irish tweeds and English suit --
lugs -aro all beginning to appear,
and 'in color, in pattern and in at-
tractivesurfaces they were never;
equaled.
For -a dressy end., say for an
Easter suit, the satin cloth is
good, and comes as low or as high
as "one cares to go. There are
broadcloths, of light weight and
oasinneres as good as broadcloth,
though not as heavy; also ladies'
cloth and goods that are called
satin -faced goods. From these one
oan• select.
A handsome style of gown for
the street will be made of veining
of rather heavy weight, yet so that
its liting shows throagh In a shad-
ed fashion. This mimes 121 all the
colors and can be recommended in
the paler shades. It makes an ex-
cellent suit, and in violet is par-
ticularly pretty. A violet valets

and trim:mod with wide
satia ribbon snitched .flat to the
goods upon each edge, will form the
basis of a handsome suit for a
well-dressed Woman.
Drop Skirts in Vo ue.
Tee question Of drop skirts aud lin-
ings is pretty well settled for the
Easter *aeon. There will be drop
skirts whether there are linings or
not. Silk drop eldrts, to be put' on
lase a petticoat, come wiell all the
nice suits and those that are not
sePPlied with.- tamest, can have them
quickly made. A very thin, very close
fitting taffeta petticoat, all of one
color and trimmed, not with, lace, but
with a taffeta flounce, makes a de-
lightful drop rkirt, one that e.an be

A new eltirt trimming appeared
upon the gown worn by Mrs. Leslie
Carter off the /stage. 'lip gown was
in binge a black Ottoman eilk of
coarse weave. Tire skirt was cut
plain and &heath shaped and tlie
eyelet was slightly bloused in front.
Tee novelty lay in the trimming,
which coneisted of narrow bands of
black velvet ribbon. These were ar-
reteged at the aide exactly like a
reader web. The ribbons came out
fl'011/ it central place, diverging like
the typical pietorial web, and there
were narrower ribbone crossing it
to make an intricate mealy. The vel
vet had email jetted beads here and
there, but only enough to make the
ribbon /sparkle
The web wa,s large enough to
nearly cover one aide of the skirt,

one directly upon the middle of the
front of large size. This is a kind of
trimming that .could lee easily ap-
plied at home and would decorate
any gown, black or white, bright or
dull. It might be applied to an old
evening gown with the effect of mak-
ing it look like new'. In the centre
of the web there could be a jetted

gant one for evening, the animal
could be one of thee° jeweled ones

Mrs. Roosevelt is wearing many
handsome gowns. One, on a recent/
oceetelon, .was a graceful thing of
°ream white crape, the skirt out in
the close fashion now prevalent, tbe
bottom of the ekirt flaring over num-
erous frills of the same material. The
closely fitted bodice was trimmed in
Ince applique, forming it yoke and
vest, the whole design daintily out-
lined with a tracery of gold threads.
Metope of the sleeves were trimmed
with the same lace, while the lower
part flared over a fuli puff of white
chiffon The same trimming was
grecefully arranged abut tim upper
part of the skirt. Her hair ornament
was a lace bow held in place by a
rhineatone buckle, to which was
added a white aigrette. The lady of
the 1Vhite House is mid to have no
less than a dozen handsome new
gowns, all white. •
