"What a terrible night," said Helen,
shivering a little as Warren helped
her into a taxi.
•'Tea. It's a shame we had to have
such a storm, hut I don't really
think It will keep people away."
"I hope the Bells get in all right,"
said Helen.
"They will: Tom would have tele
phoned in If lie hadn't intended to
come."
The trip down in the taxi seemed
short enough and Helen was soon
yetting out at the hotel. They went
up in the elevator and Helen made
her way into the dressing room,
anxiously looking about for Babbie.
"Oh, here you are,' said a voice.
"I thought I recognized that back,"
and Babbie rushed up and hugged
her.
"I was looking for you," Helen
said delightedly; "we were so
afraid you wouldn't get in."
"Now, Helen, you know very well
t'nat nothing could have interfered
with our plans for to-night. Why,
I have been looking forward to this
party for ages."
"How sweet you look," said Helen,
looking admiringly at Babbie's
white shoulders rising from a
flame- colored frock. Helen was
wearing a striking gown herself, !
of blue iridescent material which was
peculiarly becoming to her blond at
tractions, "Here." Helen continued,
"lot's check these things and then go
into the dressing room and get some
powder."
Fixing Up
"I have been in to fix up." said i
Babbie, "but I'll go again with you. '
Here's my check, put our things to
gether; that will be easier. By the
way, is any one else going to be at
our table?"
"Bob and said Helen,
piling her things together and
lianding them over to the maid.
"And some friends of theirs. Dr.
and Mrs. Dennis.
In the dressing room confusion
was rife. Helen thought she had
never seen so many women in her
life. They were all struggling to
get near the two mirrors, and as
Babbie and Helen made their ap
pearance several of the women
stared noticeably.
Babbie took no notice to them,
but Helen as usual flushed uncom- j
I'ortably. She hated to attract at
tention and for the tenth time that
evening wondered if her dress were
too low.
"I hate to have people stare." she
whispered to Babbie.
"It's the penalty we pay for be
ing attractive." said Babble, teas
ingly. "Frankly, I don't mind being
looked at."
Helen finally pushed her way up
to the glass and began to fluff up
her hair. She had not noticed the
woman who stood next to her. and
the first indication that she had of
being observed was a remark that
she heard passed.
"How do you like that woman's
dress?"
Helen did not even know that
4 hey were speaking of her until
another woman said audibly:
"I think it is disgraceful. I no-j

"Yes. T suppose the kind that im

nre concerned."

. | Helen was almost amused at what
I she had overheard. It was the first
time that she had been accused of
. playing the role of siren. It was
• ! quite a new sensation, one that she
could smile at and almost think
| complimentary.
"I beg your pardou," said one of
. i the women, the same who had
i spoken of her first, "but if you
are quite finished I should like to
1 get nearer to the glass."
t| "Certainly." said Helen, gracious
-' ly, turning to see what the woman
■ looked like. She was a rather stout
, ; woman, unbecomingly but expen
sively dressed, with a rather dis
agreeable mouth, thin and hard.
Helen knew that the woman had
made the remark simply to be dis
agreeable, so she took her time
about finishing, and finally turned
leisurely away. The woman pushed
by her with a little sniff and took
the place nearest to the glass. l
Helen turned away with a smile and
met Babbie's amused eyes.
"Did you hear any of that little I
. byplay?" Helen asked.
"Some of it, but that was nothing [
to what a woman who stood next to 1
me said."
"About me?"
"About you."
"Tell me, Babble; you make me
quite curious."
"Well, one woman asked another
if she knew you, and the woman
replied that she did slightly, and
that you were terribly jealous of
( your husband."
| Babbie said this with a lightness
'that showed plainly the little stock
she put in the remark and that she
expected Helen to think even less
of it, but it was just the remark to
make Helen unhappy, and she
turned white.
Babble's Regrets
"Oh. my dear." said light-hearted
Babbie penitently, "I had no idea
that you would mind. Why, I
thought you would treat the entire
matter as too absurd to think of, or
1 should never have repeated it to
you."
"I hate to have people say that."
said Helen. "It is t lie one thing
I utterly detest, and that will nine
' times out of ten make me furious."
Helen bit her lip rrantically to
i keep back the tears.
"You make me perfectly furious
with myself for repeating it, Helen.
I dear," said Babbie. "Please don't
feel that way. or I shall turn right
around and take the next train back
to Rockville Center."
"You absurd child," said Helen,
smiling in spite of herself. After
all, how foolish she was to allow
the speech of two thoughtless
women to spoil her entire evening.
Babbie was right; it was too trivial
to think of even.
"Of course, it's all right," she said.j
pulling herself together. "And at an
affair of this kind women are al
ways talking about their neighbors.
It's too bad that some women are
so catty. There's Louise; we'll go
out and meet the men as soon as
she is ready."
"Hello, people," said Louise, hur-
I rying up. "Helen, what a perfectly
stunning dress. 1 never saw you
look so well. Wait jusf a moment
for me. girl, and I'll be ready." And
she rushed off to the mirror, leav- 1
ing Helen once more restored to
confidence.

Flounced skirts are in the height at
style. This one is charmingly attractive
and graceful and is appropriate alike
for lace, (or embroidery, for the bordered
materials and for the materials that must
be hemmed or finished in some other way.
The wider flounce is joined to the deep
yoke and the narrower flaunce is arranged
over it. Nothing; could be simpler to
make and the result always is satisfactory.
The model is a good one for dinner
and evening occasions and also for after
noon wear, made from a simpler material.
Taffeta would be pretty with bands of vel
vet ribbon finishing the flounces. Cr®pede
chine could be banded with narrow gros
grain ribbon to be smart. The thinner
materials would be pretty with picot edge
and the simple hem is always pretty
when a simple dress is wanted. For the
summer frock, cotton voile would bo
charming with lace insertion used as a
finish for the hems and the mate 'al cut

SENATE SQUASHES
GORE RESOLUTION
[Continued From First Bag**.]
tlon would now be concentrated on
the situ ttion in the House.
Senator McCumber later reintro
duced substantially the same reso
lution lie had offered as a substitute
to the Gore resolution. The McCumber
resolution would go to the calendar.
Immediately after the vote in the
Senate, Senator Reed. Democrat, read
a statement, saying he felt it was
highly important that the impression
in Germany that the country and Con
gress were not behind the President
should be removed and that therefore
he was opposed to the Gore reso
lution.
"It is of the highest importance,"
said he. "that all the world under
stand that on any question of the
rights of the American government or
the American citizen, our great people
stand as a unii, and it should be un
derstood that they will uphold, sustain
and defend the rights, if necessary, to
the last breath."
Assails War Talk
In connection with his statement <
Senator Iteed assailet" the sensational
discussion in the Senate yesterday.
"I believe the effect of those utter
ances yesterday are to assert that in
this nation are those considering the
interests of Germany rather than of
the United States." said he. "There
has been niucn talk of traitors. 1 be
lieve it would be difficult to find in the
whole United States one thousand men
who wouldn't assert the highest degree
of loyally to the country.
"I utterly abominate and repudiate
the statesman attributing to anyone
the desire to act against the interests
of the United States merely because
of his conclusion that he will be in ac
cord with the interests of the support
ers of one of the belligerents."
Senator Jones. Republican, declared
the tabling of the resolutions had fur-

'said. "We have not passed on the

"Perhaps the senator from Wash

House." suggested Senator Borah.
"It is easy to introduce another reso

j Senate has not settled the issue yet.
I The President Is not advised of the
sentiment of the Senate on this propo
sition and the people of this country
and the nations abroad know it." Ho
expressed the hope that the discus
sion would serve to prevent any
Americans taking passage on any ships
owned by belligerent nations.
"The nation's anger should hang on
the foolhardiness of no man." he said.
McCumber Protests
In reintroducing his resolution Sen
ator McCumber protested that debate
could not be off and that either
later to-day or to-morrow he would
call up his resolution.
The text of Senator Gore's addition
to his original resolution and which
i was tabled with the warning resolution
! was as follows:
| "Resolved by the Senate, the House
jof Representatives concurring, that
| the staking "V a German submarine
I without notice or warning of an armed
j merchant vessel of her public enemy,
i resulting in the death of a citizen of
I the United States, would constitute a
i just and sufficient cause of war be-
I tween the United States and the Ger
man empire."
Double Vote Responsible
Several senators explained that the
double form of the question was re
sponsible for the character of the
: vote, as few senators wanted to vote
! on the question regarding a cause for
I war.
While the Senate was voting. House
leaders were working. There was no
doubt that the administration victory
in the Senate was expected to solidify
I the sentiment in the House, and the
leaders looked for some favorable de
-5 velopments during the day.
President Wilson, after he had con
ferred with Acting Chairman Pou, of
the rules committee, determined to
i have a vote in the House, even if a
special rule containing a resolution
vere required to get it.
Insistence that a vote be taken by
I rule committee action, if necessary,
I came after varying reports as to the
stand of the foreign affairs committee.
As yet no resolution has been agreed
1 upon in the latter committee which
would command a majority vote, and
j there was no positive assurance to-day
thai any resolution would be reported
by it. Chairman Flood expressed the
htfpe that a satisfactory resolution
would lie drawn to-day and reported
when the committee meets late this
| afternoon.
Administration leaders in the House
j were hopeful that it would be unneces
! .-.ary to report a resolution in a rule.
! It is taken for granted that Repub
-1 licans would tight such a rule, and
I with one exception such action is un
| precedented.
i Mr. Pou told members of the rules
: committee that he regarded the pres-
I ent situation above partisan politics
and for that reason there would be no
I secret sessions of the Democratic
| members to arrive at some plan of
I action. He wants a nonpartisan vote.
The roll call in the Senate, with 21
j Republicans composing the ayes, was
as follows:

Text of Resolution
The text of the Gore resolution fol
lows:
"Whereas a number of leading pow
ers of the world are now engaged in a
war of unexampled proportions; and
"Whereas the United States is, hap
pily, at peace with all of the bel
ligerent nations; and
"Whereas it is equally the desire
and the interest of the American
people to remain at peace with all
nations; end
"Whereas the President has re
cently afforded fresh and signal proofs
of the superiority of diplomacy to
butchery as a method of settling inter
national disputes; and
"Whereas the right of American citi
zens to travel on unarmed belligerent
I vessels has recently received renewed
guarantees of respect and inviolability;
: and
"Whereas the right of American
citizens to tra\ el on armed belligerent
vessels rather than upon unarmed ves
sels is essential neither to their life,
liberty or safety, nor to the independ
ence. dignity or security of the United
States; and
"Whereas Congress alone has been
vested with the power to declare war,
which involves the obligations to pre
vent war by all proper means consist
ent with the honor and vital interest
of the nation; therefore be it
"Resolved by the Senate, the House
of Representatives concurring, That it
j is the sense of the Congress, vested as
| it is with the solo power to declare
war. that all persons owing allegiance
to the United States should in behalf
of their own safety and the vital in
terest of the United States forebear to
exercise the right of travel as passen
gers upon any armed vessel of any
belligerent power, whother such vessel
be armed for offensive or defensive
purposes; and it is the further sense
of the Congress that no passport
should be issued or renewed by the
Secretary of State or by anyone acting
under him to be used by any person
owing allegiance to the United States
for purpose of travel upon any such
armed vessel of a belligerent power."

I could convince Germany that this na
| tion was in earnest in its position on
| submarine warfare.
I The President is understood to have
| mentioned this fact to show his belief
that action by Congress would further
weaken the position of the United
States abroad. He is understood to
have told the leaders that charges that
■ he wanted to get the United States
1 into war were entirely disproved by
j his attitude during the last two years.
\ He endured jeers and ridicule, he said,
| because of his efforts to maintain

to do anything except sacrifice honor

; at peace.
At the same time, the President de
clared, he did not see how the United
States could do anything but sever
i diplomatic relations with any nation
which killed Americans in violation of
international law.
Discuss Break
While bolli Secretary I>ansing and
Count von Bernstorff, the German am
bassador, have flatly declined to com
ment upon the statements regarding
the possibility of war attributed to
President Wilson by Senator Gore and
later denied at the White House, it
was learned to-day that mention of
the result of a break of diplomatic
relations had been discussed quite
casually and informally by the secre
tary and ambassador late in January
of this year.
Wilson Vigorously Denies
He Said That War With
Germany Might Be Best
Special to the Telegraph
Washington, D. C., March 3. ln the
course of the debate in the Senate yes
terday Senator Gore, of Oklahoma, de
clared that he had introduced his reso
lution to warn Americans not to travel
on armed ships because he was "appre
hensive that we were speeding head
long upon war.
"My action." he went on, was based
on a report which seemed to come from
the highest and most responsible au
thority that certain Senators and cer
tain members of the House, in a con
ference with the President of the Unit
ed States, received from the President
the information, if not the declaration,
that if Germany insisted upon her posi
tion the United States would insist up
on her position, and that it would re
sult probablv in a breach of diplomatic
relations, and that a breach of diplo
matic relations would probably be fol
lowed bv a state of war. and that a
state of war might not be of itself and
of necessity an evil to this Republic,
but that the United States by entering
upon war now might be able to bring
it to a conclusion by midsummer and
thus render a great service to civiliza

America's Newest Battle
Cruiser Is Fast Boat
i The first authentic description of
1 the new battle cruiser that is shortly
' to be built for the United States Navy
appears in the February Popular
Science Monthly. Details of this new
1 type of ship have, up to the present
time been lacking, but this fascinating
magazine is in a position to present
1 details which may be regarded as ac
-5 curate.
! We are told that profiting by the
; lessons taught by the engagements
! fought off the Falkland Islands and
' in the North Sea. this new battle crul
-1 ser of ours Is to have a speed some
-1 where between thirty-two and thirty
-1 five knots. Obviously engines of enor
mous power are required to attain
that speed, and so we may expect that
one hundred thousand horsepower
must be generated. Every additional
knot means an Inordinate increase in
engine capacity.
> Our unbuilt and unnamed battle
' cruiser will have eight fourteen-inch
guns and twenty-five five-inch guns.
At first blush it would seem as if the
■ Queen Elizabeth's fifteen-inch guns
• must carry the day if these two ships
■ were ever opposed. But our ordl
