pears as finish for the top of the

Shirt waists and blouses remain, and q
genuine blessing these are, the one bring
ing comfort ON hot days and the other a
dressy effect in conjunction with black
satin skirt. Tho modern blouse may be
as simple as shirt waist or as elaborate
as the bodice of an evening gown. 1t
may be we'll to explain in this connection
that many of tho shirt waists now pre-
pairing for the summer campaign are de-
cidodly fanciful, being frilled, shirred
and lace edged until they are many re-
moves from tho original article with its
stiff linen collar.
A pleasing revival is that Of accordion
plating, which appears in gowns, wraps
and hat trimmings.
In illustration OF the new styles may
DO described two imported costumes.
One, in electric green china silk. has n
bodice, epaulets and collar In coarse
black guipure, harmonizing with the
trimming OH the lower part of the skirt.
The bodice opens over a full front in
white muslin The draped belt is in
black satin mcrvoilleuse, shot with red.
The second dress has a skirt in cream
colorcd canvas. The blouse bodice is a
good representation Of the up to date
blouse. 1t is made Of Powered yelling
and is set off with bOlero vest in black
velvet trellis work The belt is of black
velvet. Jeweled buckles adorn the col
lar and belt This style of bodice would
look well in variety of materials and
colors and is very fashionable.
Many of the new tailor made gowns
are decidedly smart. Indeed, the pros
pect is that plain tailor gowns will be
in the minority. The ubiquitous bolero
has invaded this department.. A charm
ing example is in violet tinted cloth.
The short boloro bodice Is fastened by a
jeweled button over full yoke and
vest of narcissus green silk and swathed
at the waist by folds of q dark violet

than those that had gone before. Shout
ders had been broadened by full sleeves
and bodices amplified in many ways.
With them came also the hat which
gave an air Of youthfulness to tho wear
er and deficd the observer to mark the
passage of time. Few women, except
those In mourning and the unquestion-
ably elderly danes, wore bonnets for
promenade. Chic little affairs, all lace
and nonsense, with nodding flowers and
tantalizing aigrets, were indeed affected
by many for evening wear, but even
these showed no strings and were mere
fancy bits made as decorative as could
be. Tho hat of the season was hat-a
hat of generous size, Of unlimited pos
sibilities and one that asserted its claim
before all others, while it threw the bon
net into deepest shade.

Mr.. Edgar Schramm, eX-United
States consul to Montevideo, Uruguay,
in the current number of American
Trade, published in Philadelphia, adj
vances some practical suggestions for
the Improvement of the consular ser
vice.
While admitting that the service
needs thorough reformation, Mr..
Schramm still contends that the con-
suls of the United States do more work
for less pay than those Of any other
nation. The gravest fault of the sys-
tenn is that of the continuous and fire.
quent change of consuls. The next
evil in Importance arises from the in
sufficiency and inequality of pay in the
various consulates.
To Mr.. Schramm's taking, the best
consular service could be obtained by
retaining consuls in their positions as
long as they perform their work sat
isfactorily, and by paying salaries suf-
ficient to enable consuls from this
country to live as do the consular rep
resentatives of other nations, thus de-
ing away with the unofficial fee
system, in place of which all fees
should be turned into the Department
of State. The injustice Of the unoffi-
cial fee system is that it makes bon
anzas of certain eonsulates, while
others, where the work is equally
arduous and important, are pitiably
underpaid.
With regard to the quality of service
rendered by consuls, it is suggested
that proof of this should be obtained
by the State Department from the
commanders in the United States navy,
masters of merchant vessels, from re-
ports on the standing Of the consul in
the community to which he is accred-
tied, by complaint from merchants at
home or abroad, by the correctness
and promptness of the consurs deal
lnSS Will tue DtpdI CiifSut VI otdte, dhu
by the value of his consular reports
made for the benefit of the people of
his country.
Taken as a whole, Mr.. Schramm' S
paper is valuable and worthy of at
tentien. The points made are II )se
that hare impressed themselves upon
the mini of practical man who has
feen in the service of which he writes,
and they ere advanced impassionately

service. That there is room for i'm

At the Carroll Club Auditorium Was .
Brilliant Success.
A large audience assembled in the
Carroll Club Auditorium last evening
to greet Remenyi and his concert as
sociates. Anticipation had run high,
and the realization was no disappoint-
ment Encore requests were the or
der and most willingly responded to.
Remenyi, the advertised star, re-
ceived such an ovation as was never
witnessed in Wheeling, while the
other participants in the entertain
ment shared honors with him in pub
lie appreciation of their work. Re-
menyi's technique and playing are re-
markable, and his performance
throughout so interesting as to hold
the uninterrupted attention of all.
No words, however, can convey to one
not present the impression made by
him on the audience, and of his work
it were useless to individualize.

which proved by it's hearty applause
that her good singing, as well as the
piano work of Mr.. VIM. Sauvelt, was
not lost sight of by the overwhelming
attraction of world renowned vio-

HANNA Is BADLY SCARED.

If Mark Hanna is not already a
beaten man in his race for the United
States Senate, he is about the worst
scared man in the country. He has
dragooned every available member of
the administration and office-holder in
Washington to his aid. He has
pressed into service even Foraker,
whom he despises and who heartily
despises him, and the two have made
an exhibition of hypocrisy that has
been calculated to disgust the people of
Ohio. He has dragooned the Presi-
dent of the United States, himself, onto
the Ohio stump-an unprecedented ex-
hibition of autocratic power by
narrow minded party boss.
Every Ohioan in the service of the
government at Washington has been
ordered home to help Hanna out, and
the big guns of the party have been
modified in the State for more than
two weeks from all parts of the
Union Smelling the woods for Hanna.
II this doesn't mean fear based on a
knowledge of defeat foredoomed, what,
then, does it mean?
But there are stronger evidences
than these exhibitions of desperation
in support Of the belief that the peo>
pie of Ohio will to-day repudiate
Hanna. Despite the tremendous and
gravely suspicious increase in the vote
of Ohio last year, Mckinley carried
the State by only $4,000 plurality.
About $4,000 of this plurality came
from the large cities and towns. APP
proximately the figures were these:
Cincinnati, 10000; Cleveland, 5000;
Toledo, 5000; Dayton, 5000; Column
bus, 1900; Canton and Akron, 1000.
It is conceded even by the Hanna
managers that there is going to be a
big slump in all of these cities to-
day, and that most of them will swing
into the Democratic column. This
claim is not based upon the result OF
the spring elections, when there were
surprising reversals in all of them.
1t is based upon an actual knowledge
of conditions as revealed by thor
ough and careful poll of the voters.
If, therefore, these expectations are
even partially realized and the large
centers of the State go against
Hanna, the plurality rolled up for
Mckinley will be wiped out unless the
rural districts do better by Hanna than
they did by the Presidential candidate
a year ago.

The sale Of the main line of the Union
Pacific to the Morgan syndicate was
consummated yesterday as per agree
ment between J. Pierpont Morgan and
Mark Hanna. BY virtue of the public
jty given the deal by the Democratic
and Independent press of the country
the administration was forced to take
action compelling the syndicate TO give
UP $S,0O0,0O0 more than it had bar
gained to do, but it will probably make
this up out of the postponed sale of the
Kansas Pacific on which its bid was
