evening gowns, promise to be popular, but
for the street the waist line will be the
regulation mark. 1t is the reign OF the
round waist-no basques are visible-and
what they lack in length they make up In
the amount of decoration used upon them,
and the novel effects in the sleeves
All sleeves are as elaborate as possible.
Velvet being the material so much in favor
il follows that large sleeves in outside
WRAPS or loose circular capes must be worn
over these house gowns enriched with such
material, for though elegant 1t is bulky,
therefore tight-fitting jacket is out OF the
question. Some bodces, like windows, pos
sess several layers of sleeves like curtains.
First there will be a plain one OF cloth, then
a large full puff Of velvet quantity drawn
through lacings. and again over this sort
of epaulette or curtain effect. You can't get
too much stuff into your sleeves. As a
leading modiste remarked: There Is as
much material in these sleeves as IN the
entire waist"
Revers, cloth berthss. jacket effects, plas-
irons, In fact anything and everything that
can possibly be considered decorative is put
on to these tiny bodices, which, strange as IL
may seem, instead of looking overloaded are
really extremely stylish and picturesque.
But alas for the stont woman! They are not
for her. The slender creature Is undoubt-
edly the model Of fashion this season.

DR.. Beale's Wife VIII Probably Escape
Trial.
When the case of Nellie Haven. charged
with being an aceomplice of her husband,
DR.. Beale, in the murder of Mary Carroll,
was called yesterday in Judge Troutfs
court. Assistant District Attorney Hinkle
moved for dismissal on the ground of in
sufficient evidence 10 convict.
Mr.. HinkIe said the testimony in the case
Of Mrs. Haven was the same as ia the case
Of Hattie Graham. who had been acquitted.
Then why not dismiss the charge against
DR.. Beale as well?" suggested Attorney
Ferral. who represented Nellie Haven.
What is that?" demanded the court.
The attorney repeated his suggestion with
emphasis and an air of gnilelessness which
ought to have been sufficient alone to clear
the missing Beale from uspicion.
Your jocular remarks" returned Judge
Trout, Eravely, ''are not to be considered.
The Assistant District Attorneys motion to
dismiss the case against Nellie Haven will
be taken under Amusement"
Mrs. Nellie Haven was afterward released
on her own recogniZance, which is regarded
as practically disposal of her case.

started out TO find him. After wandering
about in the woods for few hours l found
a hole in a cump of bushes. L got down
into it and saw door, or what might pass
for one. l took hold Of it and tried to open
it, but found it locked. But was bound to
enter and pushed it in. When the thing
opened | was nightly scared and felt like
getting out.
Just inside the door was sort of shelf
hung up on the side oil the wall, and on 1t
sat a great big man. His beard was long
and his hair fell down over his shoulders.
My heart was in my throat, but was bound
to be brave. What are you doing up there

by a goodly number of spectators. who came
TO see the ending of the tournament which
was 10 decide who was the champion Of the

The game was between Will English and
Sumner Hardy, both young gentlemen hav-

trary to their expectations it was easily won
by the latter with score of rs, ca and
Go.
At the opening both players performed
we'll and received generous rounds of ap-
plause. but during the last set both became
careless and indifferent-Mr. English seeing
that the battle was lost and Mr. Hardy
being oyerc0nfident.
All through the first part of the game
Hardy showed great Judgment about hitting
a ball, and did some very good playing.
Some excellent passing also occurred. which
the audience was not slow in applauding.
The winner is aseyenteen-year-olds school
