to be held at No. sos L. sixth street,
and 1t was held. but early la the evan
ing and behind closed doors.
This was the swallow tails conven
tion and when the Overalls later In the
evening went to the place the building
was Locked, Determined not TO be
baflied so easily this faction marched
to the house No 724 East Eleventh
street where they assembled and nam
ed Edward DuRan as chairman and
Frank Coreoran secretary and Joseph
Wyman treasurer. These resolutions
were then drawn up and adopted:

IL was then moved and seconded

political leaders of his ward for the

the statesman. having in his possession

The thirsty one gave the coin a casual
glance, and said:
You think you're smart. don't you?
Think can't pass it, don't you? Well,
I'd rather have this than good one, for
1t will go further. I'll go into a saloon,
get a drink. throw down the dime. and
the bartender will shove 1t back and say
it's no good. Pll tell him it's all Eve

the back, two small punches of prim-
roses came from under the bonnet and

new fashion. that is. they were brought
forward, tied in a stiff bow just in front,
then the ends were drawn back about
the throat, tied in another stiff bow,
which was fastened with small Jeweled
pins. The wearing of the hair high
makes this arrangement very desirable,
for the ribbon breaks the line that would
otherwise come between the collar Of
the bodice and the couture itself.

The very first chance you get you
turn your head to see how the little
woman is getting along. You expect to
see wild-eyed, swaying bundle of
satin and tulle with chattering teeth
and white lips, but she is far from being
nervous. She has been getting her
courage up for weeks. and now she
strides gracefully along with the dig
nifty Of an empress and the composure
! of cat on his own back fence.

full frills of the lace. The sash, which
starts from the under-arm seam, is OF
broad yellow ribbon, and is tied in
graceful loops and ends just in front.
If this bodice were made of light silk
and trimmed with cOffee-colored lace it
would be equally smart. and could, OF
course. be worn with skirt of any
color. The yellow one, by the by, is
chosen for wear with brown skirt, a
white skirt or black lace skirt.
The summer silks were probably
never more deliberately made up than
they are now. Lace and ribbon are
lavished upon them and much trouble
is taken to give in the arrangement of
the decorations as unique look as pos
sible. A frock Of silk intended for at
ternoon wear at tie seaside bears the
hallmark of Redfern, and shows the
combination of cOlors specially ap-
proved by famous artists, that is, grey,
rose and coffee color. The gown itself is
made of pale silver gray silk, and the skirt
is drawn up high ON one side and laid in
box plaits to show panier of rose silk
upon which ale two full f1ounces of
coffee colored lace. Far down on the
skirt is arranged. in applique

cuff of pink silk. The bonnet is of cot
fee-colored lace with pink velvet roses
just in front and gray wings at the back.
The gloves are of gray undressed kid,
and the parasol is of gray chiffon, lined
with pink silk.
The hats that are exhibited in the
shop windows are very seldom these
that are worn by the women who con.
slider themselves good dressers. They
are apt to be overturned, over-la rg
and somewhat loud In effect. The FASH
iOnable woman has her large hat for the
country as a matter of course, then her
travelling cap or hat. but for times that
she counts as of special value she ap-

! favored is small, of jet, steel or straw
lace. and has the flowers upon it ar.
ranged in little punches that rest well
down on the hair. and so either take
away or give, whichever may be desired
to the complexion.

If you can't be bride it is a good
thing to be bridesmaid.

flower in your hair and the satisfied air
of uniformed drum major? Nothing

every eve is upon you-except thos'
eyes that are taking in pictures of tn 6
bride and the five other bridesmaids
You dream-just for tiny. moment. Of
course-that it is your own wedding
and wonder vaguely why sthe groom
doesn't appear. You feel like laughing
and crying. aud YOU are scared to death
for fear you'll sneeZe. Then you worry
a lot of new wrinkles In your forehead
because you feel sure that either the
