TRIMMED SKIRTS.

ward All Spring and Summer.


The day OF the plain skirt is gone by
except for the tailor made, which often
has a panel in II, or is trimmed with
very fancy rows or braid put on in most
decorative design. Many OF the newest
skirts are accordion plated and are
the exact counterpart OF those worn in
ls.O when an accordion plated skirt
was the dressiest thing a woman could
own.
IN making such n skirt il should be
remembered that It must invariably be
made short, even shorter than walking
length"
II is very difficult 20 hold up an accor-
dion skirt owing 10 its fulness, and con-
seouently It should be short enough to
do away with the necessity Of holding
10 up.

WILL PLEAD IN VAIN
FOR THE FULL PRIVILEGE OF
STATEHOOD
Republicans Have Made Up Their
Minds That No Territories Shall
Be Admitted

CHICAGO, Jan. PA special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
The fate of the Territories now press
ing forward for Statehood already has
been practically settled and unless the
unexpected happens there will be no Ter
ritorial legislation at this session. The
House Committee on Territories, after
giving hearings in advocacy of admit
ting Arizona, New Mexico and Okla
homa into the sisterhood of States,
fixed on next Wednesday for the vote on
these measures. There is little doubt
of the result of the meeting. The mem
bership of the committee is fifteen. OF
these the Republicans muster eight,
while there are seven Democrats. The
Republicans will vote solidly against
admission of any of the Territories,
which will prevent the measures coming
before the House. The Senate Commit
tee is likewise disposed. Chairman
Knox of the House Committee on Ter
ritories has talked over the situation in
formally at various times with members
of the committee at the other wing of
the capitol and the two bodies are work
ing along the same lines. With these
ton will be submitted again with re-
newed vigor at the next session of Con-
gress.
Arizona. New Mexico and Oklahoma
are the only regularly organized Terri
tories now remaining in view of the par
ceiling out of Indian Territory among
the five civilized tribes, and the only
remaining Territory legislation in sight
would be on the transition of Alaska
from district into a single or two Ter
ritories and the admission into State
hood of Indian Territory after the five
tribes are broken up and the entire sec
ton reorganized.
AS to Alaska, Chairman Knox SAYS he
does not believe the time is yet ripe for
making it Territory. He believes the
population there is too shifting and
that the existing form of government
should be broadened in the way of ex-
tending the jurisdiction of the United
States courts under the Commissioners
and enlarging the military feature of the
administration of the district. AS to the
Indian Territory the Dawes Commits
sion already had announced the hope
less prospect of reaching any further
agreements with the five tribes and the
only way of Strengthening out the COM
picated condition of affairs is by Con-
gressonal legislation
