Betty's London Letter.
LONDON, April 2. Women Forward! but too fast! It seems that at bat the Prime Minister has been forced into promising to receive a deputation of the Women's Suffrage League. A memorist signed by two hun-- dred members of Parliament of all parties. was presented to Sir Henry Campbell Ban. nerman a few days ago, begging him to receive the League deputation at the House of Commons, with the view of slicting the view of the present Government on the
matter.
The Premier has expressed his willingness (eave the mark) to comply with the request, but vaguely suggested that is
As so many women's associations wish-to interview him on the subject of the franchiré, á
date be fixed sometimo after the Easter recoss when he may receive all the deputations together. Brave to a fault, Sir Henry fenra no for in political "armour-does not shirk the Chinese labour question, fights ever the mighty Joseph Chimberlain lingle banded, but there is's weak spot in his armour. Half a dozin Now Women" crowd on his door step to
after the state of his health, etc., and he has them arrested
ཀ་
(temporarily). Forty or fifty wingless angele of the fairest sex seek an interview, and his lasty reply is "Some other day-some other day."
So easily are the mighty vanquished by us, dear women! By us.
Fire women graduates of Edinburgh University are demanding yotes as a matter of constitution and have brought (an action against the officials of the University who refused to allow them to vote at the las election. They claim their title to vote under certain ordinances issued in the terms of the Scottish Universities Act of 1889. Much excitement is expected from 1376 the case when it comes into Court, and suroly all this feminine perseverance must in the end meet with its due reward ↑

BOLEROS.-The corselet skirt is ubiquj.” tous; and with it is worn, al'a matter of coume, a bolero of some description of other. The very latest is made with cape. like epaulettes cut in one with the-bolero, and this gives the blouse worn beneath, the appearance of a yoke. The collar is circular and finishes the edge of the bolero and the sleares are three quarter in length. Some boleros designed for use in warm weather are made of finely pleated ommbric or lawn," others of lace and muslia trimmed very prettily.

The hair is dressed high to suit the present millinery and hair combs tend to increase in size and to become of a more elaborate pattern. Tiny children's hats and bonnets are prettier than ever. Little Dutch bonneta are made of white tucked China silk with bunche of daisies or forget-me-nots over the ear Wee hats are chiefly of the mushroom 978 shape and made of dead white straw trim.

A company is to be 123,360 square feet- formed with a capital of £1,000,000, and arrangements have been made for under- writing nearly the whole of this amount. It is understood that the financial position
of the underwriters justities the Council in
favourably considering the offer.
It is proposed to cree on the contral portion of the site a stone building of com- manding architectural features. This build- ing will contain large galleries for use in connection with a permanent exhibition of arts and manufactures, a theatre, a concert. hall, and a restaurant. Beyond the contral block of buildings the site will be enclosed by shops with basements, ground floors, i and two floors, above. There will be 78 shops on the ground floor and 78 on the; first floor, while the second floor will be let for commercial purposes. The promoters have undertaken to spend not less than £500,000 in the erection of these buildings. They state that negotiations have already been commenced for letting portions of the buildings, and that they have no doubt as to the disposal of the whole to substantial tenants.
In the central building and in the courts or verandahs adjacent, meals will be provided, but the promoters munke their offer entirely dependent upon their being permitted to apply for a licence for the sale of beer, wines, and spirits to be served at tables by writers, who will also serve other refreshments, but no bars are desired in connection with this part of the scheme. In the theatre such facilities for refreshment will be provided as are usually allowed in theatres licensed by the Lord Chamberlain. The lease will provide that these facilities will only be afforded while performances are being given in the theatre. and that they will be in strict accordance with the regulations of the Lord Chamber- lain governing such cases.
The leases will be for a term of 99 years, at a rental of £55,000 per annum.
