FLEET LEAVES TOKIO After Splendid Reception By th? Japanese People VESSELS HOMEWARD BOUND Th* Departure of the Big Ships the Prettiest Feature of the Week— Tokio Resumes Normal Condition After a Week of Delirium. Tokio, By Cable.—After a week's suspension of almost every kind of business, because of the presence of the American fleet in Japanese waters and so that fitting welcome might be given to the American officers and sailors, Tokio is resuming its normal conditions. Already many of the de- •orations have been taken down, al- though every one is yet discussing ihe 'remarkable features of the past few days. * President Roosevelt's messages to the Emperor was presented to him through Count Komura, the foreign minister, and the Emperor probably will make a reply soon, but there is no reason to expect that the Em peror'■ message will contain other than a graceful acknowledgement and an expression of gratification at the President's warm words of apprecia tion. Nothing could possibly exceed in the publie mind in Japan the sig nifieanee of the Emperor's .previous message. The departure of the fleet Sunday morning was one of the prettiest fea tures of the week. The flgship Con necticut slipped her cables at exact ly 8 o'clock. She steamed past the Louisiana and saluted and was fol lowed by the remainder of the first Squadron. When the eight ships had passed, the Louisiana led the second line, and the entire fleet then formed in single column. As each of the American battle ships passed the head of the Japanese column ihe crews of the ships of both nations cheered enthusiastically, and the band of both the American ships played the Japanese national hymn. When the last of the sixteen ships was salutinar, the Connecticut was in visible on the horizon. Within exact ly fifty minutes the entire manouvre had been completed. Seven New Cases of Oholera. Manila, By Cable—Setfen new cases of cholera were reported in this city for the day ending Sunday night. The Blight increase in the spread of the- disease is ascribed bv the au thorities to the many gatherings of the people on Saturday night Mid Sunday and Jhe feasts that accom panied the assemblies. The sitnation is not considered to. be gravo and the health department feels as though it baa the epidemic well under cony-01, expressing no alarm over the in incrense. It is probable that the gov ernment will further restrict the gath erings of the natives and also the sale of dangerous foods. It is be lieved tbat cock pits located /in the suburbs of the city where it is diffi cult to maintain a strict watch over the sale of foodstuffs are responsible for tbe slight increase in the num ber of cholera cases noted at each week end. Orville Wright Improving Nicely. Washington, Special. Orville Wright, the aeroplanist who narrowly escaped death in the accident to his aeroplane during a flipht at Fort Myer. Va., five weeks ago, will soon be able to leave for his home at Dayton. 0.- His most serious injtjry was a broken thigh and the splint was removed from this Sunday. It was found upon measuring the left leg, the one injured, that it is but a quarter of an inch shorter than the other. An X-ray examination of the fracture showed that the knitting of the broken bones has been perfect. Chapel Hill Han Elected President of Peat Producers' Society. Toledo, 0., Special.—The second annual convention of the American Peat Producers' Society has adjourn ed to meet in Boston next year. Joseph H. Pratt, Chapel Hill, N. C., was elected president. Robert Ran som, Jacksonville, Fla., was elected vice president for the Southern Btates. - To Hare Lobbyist at Capital Baltimore, Special.—William H. Anderson, superintendent of the Maryland anti-saloon league, has been chosen by the national head quarters committee to represent the national league at Washington as aetingt superintendent during the coming session of Congress. Supt. 8. E. Nicholson, of Pennsylvania, who has been serving in that capacity, ow ing to the fact that the Pennsylvania legislature will be in session this winter, will be compelled to give hia entire time to looking after legisla tion in that State. Effort at Suidds Successful. Spartanburg; Special.—Will Bur nett, a well-known young white man who shot himself in the bead with a pistol last Sunday, died at his home as a result of the wound. Burnett was one of ten men who were ar rested a short time ago for taking part in ths mob that aought to lyneb John Irby, the negro charged with attempting a criminal assault upon a young whits woman. WW6aar/l.>l ; T - \ f. W . .5, New-York City.—Gulmpea in.iko tucta an important feature of present lress that no girl can have too many. Here are two attractive styles which ian be utilised both for lingerie ma terials and for the wash silks ttyit »o much used. The tucked gulmpe ls a very pretty but simple one that Is trimmed with embroidery between the groups of tucks. The plain one can be made with a fancy yoke on either a round or square outline, and can be made as an entire gulmpe or cut off and finished to form a chemi sette, as liked. Both allow a choice ot three sleeves, the lone ones with deep cuffs, the long ones with straight bands, and those of elbow length. The gulmpes are made with front and bucks, and are drawn up at the waist line by means of tapes inserted In a casing. The straight collar fin ishes the neck, and whatever the length of the sleeves tbey are gath ered at their upper and lower edges and Joined either to bands or cuffs. The quantity of material required for the medium size (twelve years) Is, for either guimpe, two and three eighth. yards twenty-four or thirty two, or one and five-eighth yards for ty-four Inches wide, with five and three-eighth yards of insertion, to i make the tucked guimpe as ilius-- trated. - Popular Waists. The white blouse, with rose colored dots embroidered throughout, Is 0110 of the popular waists, and equarffy well liked is the waist In white, with bands of colored embroidery reaching from the collar to th« belt. Many of the new waists show no yoke at all, nor la the genuine feature prominent. The Sheath Skirt. As for the exaggerated sheath skirt. It Is entirely out of place oa the street, and those who persist in wear ing it will entail serious consequences on themselves from public opinion, active la Its consideration of the style. The Hew Top Coat. Among the smart models shown for a service coat is one of thin tweed in a two-toned stripe of gendarme blue, j Girl's Bertha Collars. Bertha collars suit the girls no per fectly that they are always worn, and here are some charming models that are novel, yet simple, and which can be utilized over auy dress. No. 1 is made in handkerchief style with points at the shoulder, front and back, and can be finished with straight banding, as illustrated, or be scalloped on Its edges or Inset with lace or embroidery, as liked. No. 2 can be cut on the pointed line, as il lustrated, and made with medallions and lac 3 and with French knots worked in the points to make an ex tremely elaborate collar, or can bo cut round and finished simply by banding and frills, as shown in the smaller view. No. 3 Is cut on a square outline, r.nd la especially well adapted to banding and medallions. In this case these lasb are hand embroidered, while lace banding outlines them and frills cf lawn finish the edge 3. Lace medallions or reivdy made ones of em broidery can be used, however, and embroidered banding can be made to take the place of lace, or the ma terial can be outlined by the banding and the squares filled with some little bit of embroidery, If better liked. Each bertha is made in one piece. No. 1 is quite plain, but Nos. 2 and 3 are perforated for the medallions and for the banding, which make such ef fective trimming. The quantity of material required for the fourteen year sise Is three- fourth yard thirty-two Inches wld« for any bertha; three and one-fourth yards of banding for No. 1; nine me dallions, five yards of Insertion, three and three-fourth yards of edging, or three yards of edging and three and one-half yards of Insertion for No. 2; ten medallions, four and one-hall yards of insertion, three and one fourth yards of edging for No. 3. Grdy is Worn. Gray is much worn, though not t heralded color. The paler shades such as pearl and sliver, are the fav ored tones, and, as a rule, gowns ol this dainty color show a.relief by waj of contrasting'trimming. Arrival of Cretonne Ribbou.

Gambling is not popular nor drinking to any ettent, Mr. Collins found, and this bad been so marked during the last year that many of the saloon and gambling house pro prietors In Colon and Panama have dosed up and gone to pastures new. The health of the employes as a r/holn was good, he said, and tho labor conditions at the present time satisfactory. Excellent food at cost prloe Is sent down by tho Canal Com mission twice a week for the em ployes and their families. "Just before leaving Panama," said Mr. Collins, "I met Baron von Tuber.

Rear- Admiral Sperry "i!d that he was ut terly unable to say how It bad been accomplished, but that the welcome given the fleet end its officers and men here had been so carefully planned and carried out to the most minute details that lasting Impression has been c+amped upon the mind of every Ameilcan who has witnessed it.

He was oertaln there Is plenty of gold back in the mountains, as the Indiana traded for merchandise in gold nuggets, which had evidently been washed down some mountain stream. He said that the difficulties to be encountered In the San Bias country were very great, as there were no roads at all, the only means of travel being by canoes and navigating tortuous waterways, where an exploring partir could be easily ambushed. In addition to the Indians there was the malignant black-water fever to be contended with.
