Special to The Bulletin.
New York. April IT,. One of the
most charming afternoon ces'inncs
seen this season was a eherken voile
in geranium roil w ith a striped b r
der of woven red satin bands oetlincd
by white. The skirt was gathered at
the town with applied straps running
downward from the belt and finished
with broad motifs. The high gird'e
was formed of a series of folds of
the satin bands, which crossed in a
novel way in the back, and in frc nt
each baud met and folded over the
other. The bodice was finely tncVel
and had insets of heavy filet trimming
dyed to match and was embroidered
in white. The yoke of the same was
outlined with a satin fold and the
cuiniie and sleeve ruffles were of
Bruges lacp. The sleeves were pretty
indeed, as they consisted of a series
of deep ovrlapping folds which were
ioined to the bodice by straps of the
woven silg bauds. To complete th's
toilette were gloves and a dainty
wrist bag to match the color of the
guitiie and a large droplng hat wiMi
one Imim . nse plume starting in the
front and reaching well over the
back, and a parasol of geranium red
silk with large white spote and a
ruffle of Bruges lace around the top.

One Block Brick Pacing Laid on
Washington Avenue Concrete
Work Interrupted.
Brick paving on the westerly sab
ot' Washington avenue has made a
good start. One block of brick has
been laid and l ks all right. Work
on the concrete base has rea'-lict
Kighth street. This base is required to
be ." inches thick and it conforms to
that requirement. Mr. Williams, and
his assistant. .Mr. Thatcher, are doing
conscientious work and the city engi
ucer is giving the work constant at
tention. In one or two spots the con
Crete w t-k was done over, because the
in-Mi had been' careless in mixing the
map rial, the excavation also wai
deepened in one place.
Progress is interfered with in sever
al placs by the need of putting in
sewer connection:; and repairing water
pipes. This was the case at Seventh
i-treet and at a point about lu'i feet
above Seventh, where the concrete
work was left open to be completed
later.
