A .vNf W i. ..Mil 1 I ih:f.t?ai. . . it wp N important item for the feminine wardrobe, just at this season of the year, when Winter wraps are little too warm, and Spring gowns and waist not quite warm enough, Is the light Spring coat. A wide variety, in vtyle. material and .color, is to be found in the local shops, under the name of Spring coat or jacket. In the new novelty materials, of blend ed stripes and other patterns, the Spring coat can be found to match almost any of the new suitings, this type usually being made In the loose box style, fall ing free from the shoulders.. Such a coat Is shown in picture No. 4, the tone being in blended brown and tan stripes. This type of coat Is announced as one of the important "leaders" by the iocal establishment through whose courtesy the accompanying photographs were secured. All the various blend in era of the new triped goods are to be had in this pat torn. The sleeves are long, with narrow, turn-back cuffs, and the front is loose and innocent of fitting lines as is the back, being fastened in the double-breasted style, with pearl buttons. A similar coat is shown in Xo. 4, which Is of Panama cloth, in dark blue, pin striped wtih white, and with a smart white facing at the lapels. The two side pockets shown in this picture are a fea ture of the new style coats, and a good idea of the correct sleeves and its shoul der plaitings is to be had from- this gar ment. One of the higher grade coats, with semi-fitting lines, and very smart, is shown in picture No. 3. This coat is of very light tan cheviot and the long, sharp points at th front complete the smart, straight frost line, are held in place by weights In the binding. Stitched straps, finely tailored, outline the back seams and emphasize the curves of the figure. The seams are left open at the hips and in the back almost up to the waist line, the edges being smartly tailored and finished with buttons at the back. But tons are also used at the cuffs, which are of fancy cut. Another feature of this garment is the three horizontal knife plaits across the upper sleeve. The pockets are finished with tailored flaps, and col Jar and lapels are also smartly tailored. A light wrapper is shown in No. 2, which is of black silk, with a length of sleeve which compromises between the new long sleeve and the passing kimono - Btave- The Tittlff silk jacket Is almost frfoctly fitted to the figure, and buttons snugly down the front by means of smart little vest strips in white. Larger buttons with white rims down the finished sides of the silk portion add another bit of smartness to the garment, which is made coltarless. A stitched strip, cut to the curve of the neck and shoulders, serves as a collar line. For wear with a fancy waist or light-weight gown, this type of jacket is very effective. More elaborate is the little dress coat shown In No. 6. This is of rajah silk in natural color, lavishly embroidered silk braid of the same shade, and wlt.h silk borderings of dark blue under scroll Ings of the silk braid, and with sleeve finishings of heavy lace. The back of this garment is semi-fltted and with the scrolllngs of silk braid to emphasize the lines, is suggestive of the military in style. The lace at the sleeves is gathered very fully, and combine very daintily with elaborate matinee or afternoon gowns. The garment Is lined with soft silk in a blending tone. This Is one of the lead ing varieties of matinee coat, and Is be ing shoVn in attractive varieties of color and detail. of sobriety. A number of tents have been erected therein and a provost guard from the warships has been placed in charge. The square stands at the edge of the Barbary .Coast, and the convenience of its location prompted the -selection. The pro vost guard nightly patrol the "coast." No seamen are arrested by the police for Intoxication. The men of the provost guard take them in hand and convey them to the tents In the square. There they spend the night and In the morning go about their business. The provost guard has not been busy, but it has kept such seamen as have danced the dance with Bacchus free from the police station. The co-operation between the police and the seamen has been complete. The men-of-warsmen scored their high est triumph last night when they danced with the society girls of the city.- It Is doubtful if such an entertainment was ever held under the Stars and Stripes, and It is equally doubtful if any more success ful event has been carried through under the auspices of the Navy. In the receiv ing line were members of the California Club, embracing women who lead in the various activities .of the city. With them were the society matrons of the Western Addition and the leaders of the telephone, waitresses' and laundresses unions. Among the girls who danced were the young society women, the daughters of the most exclusive households, telephone girls, laundresses and waitresses. Their partners were the enlisted men and the petty officers. No civilians were allowed on the floor. The entire affair had the tone of a college dance. The young wo men found the seamen not only delightful partners In the dance, but interesting in conversation. The wife of Admiral Thomas led the grand march with an en listed man. Precedent was shattered, and successfully shattered. The fleet will be here for some days yet, but if the enlisted men continue to grow In favor as they have since the day of their arrival, they will have no stronger champion in this broad continent than the city of San Francisco.

BT P. A. SINSHEIMER. SAN FRANCISCO, May 16. (Special.) Out of the maze of events that have followed with such rapidity since the arrival of the fleet in San Francisco Bay It is naturally difficult to select any one feature of the visit as more impressive than another. To the writer, however, one thing stands apart, and that Is the strong personnel In the enlisted service. A great deal has been said and written on this point in a sort of sentimental fashion, but to see and talk to the seamen and marines of the fleet is to feel anew a confidence in-the Nation and Its lofty destiny. Seven thousand bluejackets passed up Market street and trod the bitumen pave of Van Ness avenue on the day of the his parade. Every man was an athlete. very pair of shoulders stood square and broad to the front. Clean, trim lines marked the figures of the men. There was lltheness as opposed to solidity. The gait was just as springy at the end of the flve-mile hike as at the beginning. Every man was in dress so trim that it delighted the eye to look upon the scene. Every face was freshly shaven and every head of hair was newly brushed. Strength breathed from the faces that passed in re view. The marks that tell of dissipation were strikingly absent. It was such a throng as one would meet at a college field day, where the picked men of the university gathered to match strength and prowess. In looks, the advantage would rest, if anything, with the enlisted men. Regularity of life and discipline is writ ten upon their countenances. As tb. writer stood in the middle of Van Ness avenue, with the marines pass ing up one side and down the other, a re tired Army officer next to him said: 'I- have seen the picked regiments of Europe and the Orient. I have watched the evolutions of the crack German troops that enjoy the special favor of the Emperor, but I tell you that right before your eyes there marches the finest set of soldiery the world has ever seen. Look at their magnificent figures a,nd see the Intelligence written in their faces. Those men not only excel in physique, but I tell you that if you take them- into action every man of them will know what to do as well as his commander. Each man is a regiment in himself." As one looked, he felt the truth of the words. But later, when he talked to the men and discussed with them the serious business of the day, he was more than ever impressed with the truth of the re mark that every man was & regiment in himself. For some reason to be more correct, for no reason an Impression had gone abroad that San Francisco, with 30.000 bluejackets in port would be given over to a carnival more hilarious than digni fied. The men themselves by their con--duct have proved the foliy of such antici pations. It is not the intention to paint the seamen as angels. They are no nearer that happy condition than is tne average landsman. Many of them have a hanker ing for liquor, and some of them get drunk. But the intoxicated seaman In San Francisco has been the exception the great exception. When he has fallen from grace, he has been' decently taken care of.
