Paris, September 1.-THE tailors
have a number of interesting models
on exhibition for fall or early winter
gowns. They are more varied than
this summers models, which are all
built on the lines of the blazer suit
to be worn with shirt waists. There
are still any number of jackets to be
found at the tailors', but the newest
costumes have corsages of the same
material as the skirt.
There are no especially new ma
terials that have been substituted for
the old tried and trusted cheviots,
tweeds and ladys cloth, but these ma
terials vary in colors as fashion de-
crees. The Scotch cheviots in big
plaids are popular, especially the green
and blue combinations, but the small
checks and stripes are not as popular
as they have been during the last two
years.
Narrow soutache braid is used often
in lieu of the rows of stitching that all
tailor gowns used to boast. 1t some
times borders the edges of the gown
in straight rows just hairs breadth
apart, or it is turned into the most
elaborate patterns. Often the whole
corsage is braided so heavily with the
soutache in an irregular, winding pat
tern that the material of the corsage is
hardly discernible.
One readily detects in some of the
new models bit of catering to French
tastes for the elaborate ones are rath-
er in the majority.
A MATRON'S GOWN.
Rather a dressy tailor gown suit
able for young matron was made OF
deep maroon lady's cloth. The skirt
was moderate light godet lined with
the same shade of taffeta Narrow
bias folds of the cloth formed sort
OF round yoke at the back. At the
front the folds continued into a long
point that reached to the bottom of
the skirt. Bordering the yoke and
the point was a trimming of narrow
soutache braid.
The corsage fastened at the left
shoulder and under-arm seam. 1t was
fashioned to give the effect of a short
Dolero over a corsage covered with
the bias folds. The edges of the
bolero form were trimmed with the
soutache
The sleeves were close fitting, with
only the slightest bit of fullness at the
tops. They were trimmed at the bot
tom with folds of the cloth that

Death of Mrs. John Rvan


On Wednesday afternoon, May II,
occurred the death of Mrs. John 7.
Ryan at her home, 211 O'Connell
street. She had been i'll for several
years with pulmonary affections and
all efforts to eradicate the disease,
even residence III the milder climate
of Colorado, were of no avail. For
the past three months she had been
unable to leave her home. Mrs.
Ryan, who was the only surviving
child of Michael Carroll, was born in
the town of Emmett in 1860, being
therefore in her 37th year. She en-
Joyeda large acquaintance hereabouts,
and was lady who, by her unassum-
ing, modest manner and kindly, gra-
clOus disposition, had endeared herself
to all with whom she had intercourse.
Her life was truly one of Christian
endeavor and social purity. Mrs.
Ryan's sole surviving near relatives
are her husband and her father, who
have general sympathy in their aff1ic-
ton. The funeral was held Saturday
morning from ST. Bernard's church
and was largely attended.

this the choir will engage several re-
nowned soloists, who will render vocal
and instrumental numbers. The en-

tunity for our people to hear first

be superior to any other choir iG the
state; and all lovers of music, especial
ly members of choirs and music stu
dents. ought to take advantage of it
and attend.
Concerning this fine musical organi-
zation, a correspondent furnishes the
following facts:
Early in 1895 William Boep pier came
to Milwaukee, and in the face of al
most insurmountable difficulties, with
two old societies in full blast, organized
an entirely new choir. His chorus is
called the A Capella choir, for the
production of sacred music, with which
the German race is so richly endowed .
There are few a capella (unaccomp pa
nIed) choirs in America, and MilWau
kee is proud to have the best of them
Without fuss or display Mr.. Boeppler
quietly organized his forces and went
to work. The material was not of the
very best, for that Was monopolized by
the older societies, bnt it was fresh and
willing, and a bright future is before
1t.
Mr.. Boeppler went at his chorus
hammer and tongs. A stern, firm
drill master, stickler for details, in
short period he had his society in a
we'll nodded, coherent mass. Such W; s
the rapidity of his work that the first
concert was given June 20, 1895. Since
then several others have been given.
all with remarkable success. The cho r
has brought forth some highly favor
able criticisms and On all sides it is
conceded to be a most effective body
of singers. Emily Grant Won Tetzel,
Milwaukee correspondent of The New
York Musical Courier, says: 81 con-
slider the A Capella choir the rift in
the clouds through which we can see
better days for Milwaukee artists"

Baseball.

The Crescents played ball with the
P. J. Peterson team at Oconomowoc
Sunday afternoon. Paul Berndt. the
young pitcher of the Crescents, was in
fine form and after the first inning was
invincible. He struck out seventeen
men and had only four safe hits scored
against him. He was we'll supported
by Schultz behind the bat and by the
balance of the team. Littiger and ia
cobson were the battery for Oconomo-
voc. The score by innings follows:

On Friday afternoon, Saturday morn
ing and Saturday afternoon the three
games scheduled between Concordia
college, of Milwaukee, and Northwest
ern university, were played on the lat
ter's grounds here. Concordia won the
first by score of 20 to 9, the second
