Wraps for Summer Driving.

The wraps which are designed to
protect airy and delicate summer
frocks from the dust which blows on
even aristocratic roadways are strik-
ingly pretty. Some Of them are of
pongee, trimmed with coffee-colored
lace and galloon. These, however, are
Of the merely useful variety. Those
which havo claims to be considered
real works of art are Of the dull blues
and reds, with silvery sheen upon
them. This "bloom" is not only at
tractive in itself. but is particularly
desirable in dust garment.
The most elaborate of these wraps
fall in rather loose lines from the
shoulders to the feet, but they have
lace-trimmed capes with fluffy collar
cites which give them a chic appear
ance. Those of deep claret color.
trimmed with black lace, are partie-
ularly pretty.

Lively French Town.

The record for quickly increasing
population, as shown by the recent
census, says a Paris correspondent,
certainly belongs to Roubaix. In 1900
the population of this town was 1902;
at the taking of the last census it was
114,917. of which 53,075 were Belgians.
grants. while the remaining 53,075 were
due to the excess OF births over deaths.
There is certainly no other town in
France where the population has in
creased so rapidly. The rate Of in
crease Is ten times that of the rest of
France and three times that of Paris.

CHICAGO, July 9.-The committee on

platform to the convention in full, as
follows:
I'VE, the Democrats OF the Unite States, in
National convention assembled do reaffirm
our allegi ance to those great essential p,inci-
ple' of justice and liberty upoa which our in
situations are funded, and which the Demo-
cratic party has maintained from Jefferson's
time to our own-freedom of speech freedom
of the press, freedom of conscience tho preser-
walton OF personal rights. the equality OF all
citizens before the law, and the faithful OBJ
servance Of constitutional limitations
During all these years the Democratic party
has resisted tho tendency of selfish interests to
the Capitalization of Cover .mental power and
has stosdfastly main tanned that the integ rity
OF the dual schome of government established
by the founders of this republic of republi g.
Under lis guidance and teach ings the great
principle OF local self-government has found
its best expression in the maintenance of the
rights of the States and its asser ion that il is
necessary to con fine the general government to
the 9 tercise of the powe granted by the con-
s;itution of the United st ates.
