AUTUMN DRESS FABRICS.

Crepons Are Still the Thing-Other
Stylish Gown Material.
What cranky old dame Fashion is!
Three months ago she said that not an
inch of crepon would be worn by the smart
set this winter and that crepon gown
would mark its possessor being hopeless
ly behind the STYLE land here comes Fashions
outrider with the Information that crepon
will be quite the thing for autumn
gowns! The fact Of the matter is, crepon
is a pretty fabric, even II 1t is unservice-
able. 1t catches and holds the dust III a
most lamentable manner and 1t pulls SO
that It has to be "sheared' at every wear
ing, but II you are careful to keep it clip
ped closely the pulled threads don't hurt,
they simply add another crinkle. Black
goats hair crepon is one of the very newest
designs and the crinkle Is deeper than ever
Crepon with Dresden stripes in color is one
of the new fancies. and another has a shad-
owy device Of figures over 1t. Alternate
stripes OF crepon and velvet is another odd
fancy, and 1t is right smart looking.
The bouretted goods will be here in full
force for autumn and early winter wear.
The favored fashion is a bright ground of
smooth surface with the tiny curied knots
of darker color thrown up on the right
side. In these there seems to be a return
to patterns also. Indeed, 1t looks as
though we were to have a revival of the

Nearly all fabrics for gowns present a

very popular. If you've got any Scotch

THE KEYNOTE.
1t Ii Usually Struck by the Mother In
Her Morning Mood.

Mother
Her Morning Mood.
From Harper's Bazar
The keynote of the day is usually struck
by the mother in her morning mood of
| cheerfulness or depression. IT she be a
brisk and light-hearted person, with a
knack Of putting crooked things straight
and tangled things smooth, her very step
and air, and her voice as she goes singing
about the house, will make husband, chill
dren and maids blithe and buoyant
Little as the world suspects it the key

factory, the exchange is often to be dis

merchant, the operative or the broker has

hand. her loyal truth. her unswerving
faith are supplying the man not only with
motive power, but are forming his environ
ment, subtle and intangible, but strongly
potential all the while he is away from her.
women seldom guess how much men owe
to their insistent influence. so gentle, so
restraining, so taken for granted, like the
atmosphere the daily food.
A serene true-hearted wife is a blessing
which good man appreciates and which
the most selfish man prizes more than he
himself understands.
The boys of certain family are noted
1or their chivalry, their considerable manner

On the other hand, the mother, otherwise
very attractive in person and demeanor, is
sharp and incisive in her way of addressing
her young people. Aggressiveness and per-
emptoriness characterize them in turn.

Princess gowns are quite the swell thing

fits: 1t very seldom does. A tall woman
to whom nature has been stingy as to COW
ering the bones, looks like an attenuated
telegraph pole in a princess; but, spare or
plump, the "all-together" gown is going to
be worn. Particular pains should be taken
with the set of the skirt and its evenness
of length. Examine. your gown skirts in a

spot where they fell. In addition. the gov

towers of iron and steel, seventy feet high,
two on Missionary Ridge and three on
Chickamauga field, from which the whole
landscape below is seen clearly. The lines

All of this work has been going on Tor
five years past, and the mere recital of 1t
gives good idea of the magnitude of the
park and the magnificence of Its military
adornments.
State Monuments.
But while all these positions have been
marked by the government, it has been
left to the states having troops In the bat
ties to erect monuments to state regiments
and organizations. and to the military So
cieties to commemorate the particular serv-
ives of their membership. Nine states have
done this already having erected Ill monu-
ments at a cost Of $3o5,0OO, and the re-
naming nineteen states which had troops
in the battles are preparing to do likewise.
the battles a more general representation
than appeared upon any other battlefield
of the war. Five states had troops on both
sides. Kentucky, Tennessee. Missouri, West
Virginia and Maryland.
The nine states that have thus far set up
monuments have, as a rule, provided one
for each organization. Should the other
states do this there will be wonderful ar
ray of 500 state monuments. making a
spectacle that will have no counterpart on
any other battlefield in the world, except
our own Gettysburg. All the monuments
and markings are either of granite, bronze
or iron, insuring permanency.
The bulk of visitors to the dedication will
be accommodated in barracks specially con-
structed at Chattanooga, fitted with hunks.
Tickets are sold at 81 each, emitting the
holders to comfortable sleeping quarters,
with safe storage for hand baggage and
toilet accommodations. 1t will only be
necessary for each person to provide his

Blues that rival the cobalt of midsum-
mer sky, pink like the changing tones of
the after glow of sunset. greens that re-
peat every varying tint of turf and foliage,
grays like the morning mists of the ocean.
and every conceivable shade of brown
these are some of the colors that are ia
vored of fashion and most frequently seen
in union with other colors and tones. Black
in many cases acts as the mediator, being
brought into requisition with even the very
daintiest Tits, and imparting character to
every class of material, be it thick or thin.
An odd little fancy, much liked by women
who wore them thirty-five years ago. are
half sleeves, made of lawn, muslin or net,
to meet the elbow sleeves, that are such
favorites, but rot always in place. The
full half sleeve may be gathered into a
band or ruffle at the wrist, and has band
to fit inside the sleeve at the elbow. When
the material is of a thin, cloud-iike tex
ture it is really pretty. 1t is easily ad-
justed with a jeweled pin or two. and

THAT FLORIDA LYNCHlNG.
The Three Negroes Were Played Alive
and Then Burned.

The Three Negroes Were Played Alive
and Then Burned.
Madison, Fla, May 22.-There is no
longer any doubt that Sam Echols,
Sim Crowley and John Brooks, the ne
groes who outraged and murdered Miss
Armstrong, in Lafayette county, were
flayed and burned. A man who has
just reached here from Lafayette coun-
ty says the belief is general that the
negroes were tortured to death. One
man who ventured into the swamp into
which the negores were carried asserts
that he found the place where the ne
groes were put to death. He says that
it was evident that the negroes were
tied to trees and the skin stripped from
them with knives. Then wood was
heaped about the bleeding forms, the
match applied and the wretches were
soon dead. This man says that he
found some strips of skin about the
place, which bears out the assertion
that they were fayed. Everything is
quiet in Lafayette county, and there
is no fear of trouble between the races.
The better class of negroes denounce
the outrage and murder of Miss Arm
strong as bitterly as the whites. Twelve
negroes have now been lynched in six
months, and it would seem that the
horrible fate of the last three should
prevent further attacks upon white
women. The whites have formed a
band and are determined to protect their
wives and daughters.
