WHAT'S NEW IN HATS

There is no new characteristic In
hats. The Napoleon styles seem to
nod their popularity and in miniature
fashion have been put 10 theatre use.
one. a tiny thing, hardly more than the
nro6le OF q hat. sets well down on the
head. the points going little bit aslant
instead OF exactly at either side OF the
head. Each point Is finished with
isweled buckle. and = fare OF jeweled
sierettes is put just over the parting OF
The hair and against the brim OF the
hat. The back and front are alike ex-
cent for this flare. The whole hat
i covered with satin OF deli
cate torquoise shade, and the
Jewels are eaerald crystals. Prob
Ably the most striking feature OF
the makeup OF winter hats Is the con-
slant use OF fur. There has seldom
heen a season when furs entered into
fashionable dress so prominently as
they do COW, and pelts are found trim
ming the dsintiest dancing dresses and
even bridal ones are fur trimmed. Fur
then naturally made itself prominent ia
millinery. and is most used for calling,
and for the theatre and concerts. Tur-
hans Of fur with velvet draped brim
sni trimming OF tall bows Of satin rib
bon and sn aigrette or pair of Mercury
wings are much affected by young
women.

Around the youthful face at the left
hand i'm this picture there comes a cap
Of velvet arranged in a ruching in
front and trimmed on the inside with
ribbon coupons. Attached 10 the cap
is circular piece OF stuff, almost a
collar, and the whole affair is bordered
with swans down, the brim of the
felt hat besides this is raised behind
aud the side is trimmed with a full
bow OF fancy ribbon that holds two
paste pins. Commencing from this
bow is a ribbon which encircles the
crown, and the brim is ornamented
with three velvet rolls.
Not many years ago, all the colors OF
the rainbow expressed pretty much all
that could be said about q great variety
Of shades. Now it is different The
world marches on, and the rainbow has
not kept pace with the dyer OF ribbons,
p.umes and other trimmings, and every
season sees new and handsome shades
put forth For the headwear OF next
spring and summer blue, cream and
yellow are already vieing for greatest
popularity, but which is to have il can
not be told till the women begin to buy.

me Democrats OF Berkeley county, w.

HZ, at which resolutions were unani-
mously adopted Indorslng the Wilson
tariff bill and urging the Senators and
representatives from West Virginia to
work for its speedy passage. Another
resolution gave hearty recognition OF
the distinguished efforts of Hon. Will
IAN l.. Wilson in behalf OF tariff reform.
a similar meeting was held at Hunting

"ROMEO" AND "RICHELIEU."
Tragedsan Clarke Interpreted 1hese Role
Fairly Well.

Clarlse's "Richelieu" does not compare
favOrably with the other older tragedlans,
because the character assumes smooth
ness only after very numerous perform
ances. II Is one Of the most difficult Of
Shakesperian efforts and this young TRACE
dian does not rise 10 the proper dramatic
height in the climaxes, probably because
OF lack Of familiarity with the role, or
else the other interpretations are wrong.
Nobody attempts TO deny Clarke abiii-
ty and I'm other plays thln this he has
reached results which deserve high COM
mendation. But why an actor or as
much ability will consent to have such
support Is a mystery. Does Mr.. Clarke
carry this company into New York or
Philadelphia? If SO do not the people
object2
With the possible exception OF Russ
Whytles' rendering Of the role Of Adrlen
De Mauprat. none Of the support de-
serves mention. Miss Ford seems fitted
only for the role OF Juliet. as she as
sumes the sobbing effect on the slightest
prOvOcation.
The gallery gods" ought to learn when

ought TO know when not to break into

is considered bad form. except where
