THE REALM
OF FASHION,.

such a manner as to completely con-
ceal the placket formed at the centre
back seam. A two-inch hem finishes
the lower edge to which is stitched the
tlaring lower portion of skirt that is
cut in circular shape, hemmed and
decorated to match the upper portion.
Each portion of the skirt should be
lined throughout and the hens firmly
stitched, the tops Of lower portion be-
ing included in the stitching of the
upper hem. Any style of decoration
preferredma be employed, OF a double
row of stitching will provide an appro-
pirate finish in tailor style. Firmly
woven textures in serge, cloth, armure,
cheviot and other dress fabrics are
commended for skirts in this style.
To make this waist for a lady in the
medium size will require two and one
fourth yards of forty-four-inch mate
rial.

Tasteful Costume in StOne-(tray.

Tasteful Costume in ~Stone-Gray.
The popular fancy for cloth is exem-
plifed (see large picture) in a stone
gray tastefully trimmed with black
velvet, worn with q hat of gray and
black. and gray gloves. The waist,
which makes a grateful change from
the blouse, is made oven a fitted lin
ing that closes at the c%entre-front and
includes smooth-fitting under-arm
cores. The handsome vest, which is
of velvet embroidered with jet, is at
tached to the lining at the right side
and hooks over onto the left beneath
the cloth front which is inyisibly
hooked into place. The bretelles,
collar and belt are all of velvet made
over stiff foundations, and the collar
closes ut the left side where it is fin
ished by frills of black lace. The
sleeves are t~wo-seamed and snug to
the shoulder where they are finished
with small puffs. They are cut in
square tabs at the wrists and edged
with narrow velvet bands, while frills
of lace fall over the hands. The flare
skirt delineates one of the latest styles,
and one that will be popular during
the coming season. The trimming,
which is velvet to match the bodice, is
cut in bias bands and stitched along
each edge.
The upper portion, or deep yoke, is
shaped with a front gore that fits
closely to the figure, its sides being
Joined to circular portions that meet
in a bias seam at the centre-back. Two
backward-turning, overlapping side
plaits arrange the fulness at the top III

Odd Feature of the Circus Business.

wv
J. S, Turnkey, of Geneva. Ohio, who
is attorney for Walter L. Mains cir
Gus, was at the Riggs Il few days ago.
While here, he called on President
Mckinley and was also admitted to
practice in the United States Supreme
Court, two events that will enable
him to remember his first visit to the
capital.
Few persons have any conception
of the amount of money expended
each year by a big circus to protect
itself from interruptions" said he to
n Star reporter. "When the Main
show started out last season, OF the
second day Il young fellow engaged to
do a riding act fell from Il horse and
was dragged around the ring. his head
coming in contact with several of the
stakes with considerable force. He
was laid up for up for a few weeks
and his parents began suit for sew
eral thousand dollars.
Il have just been over to Harris
burg, where the young fellow lived, to
try and effect n settlement. You see
Mains circus wants to come through
Pennsylvania the coming summer, but
with this case unsettled, there is a
possibility of the show being attached.
The delay of a single day means
everything to a big show, particularly
where the management prides itself
on never having missed a date ok
cept by accident, as was the case at
Tyrone, Penn, several years ago,
when the circus train was in Il wreck,
and a numbero of persons were killed"

window Blinds Worked by Sun Power.
The latest application of electricity
to automatic devices is the automatic
blind raising and lowering apparatus
placed on the market by a Berlin firm.
This little device lowers the curtain
when the sun shines and raises it
when it is obscured. The essential
feature of the mechanism is q V-shaped
glass vessel, placed outside the win
dow, which carries at its extremities
two hollow glass bulbs. One is coat
ed inside with lampblack and the 9TH
er is not. In the connecting arm of
the tube, which is of capillary pro-
portions, is o column of mercury.
When the sun shines on the glass
balls the air contained i'll the lamp
BACKED ball is caused to expand more
than the other one, thus driving the
mercvry column higher i'll the oppo-
site arm. This completes an electrl-
cal contact, which starts a motor in
operation, lowering the curtain.
When the curtain is all the way down
another contact is completed, and the
motor reversed, ready to raise the cur
tain as soon as the sun allows the air
to contract to its original volume

insure satisfactory effect. The fronts
are plain and loose, but the backs are

Black Velvet For Gowns.

Black velvet for gowns is very fash

InfractIOnS OF Law.

John Quinn, of Borden Shaft, used
some"' indecorative" diction on Deco
ration day, disturbing the patriotic Sc
renity Of that placid village in the vale.
For his diversion justice Williams
charged $l2. l2-fne and costs. John
should remember that while "kind
words can never die" unkind ones
sometimes cost nearly 10 per rent. of
the charge for al epitaph excavated
on home made tombstone capitalized
at $l23.
John Allen, of Eckhart, hired team
from the Gladstone livery last week to
drive to Cumberland. Stopping at
Eckhart, the team was taken by Dun
can and William Close and William
Watson to Cumberland. Returning
next day, the horses looked like they
had been with Gomez for year or
two. The Gladstone people reckoned
the term of enlistment at par with $l2,
gold standard. But Mr.. Allen could
not figure out a livestock speculation
on that basis and said Il pass" The
Gladstone people thereupon renigged
and smiled on Mr.. A lien with tender
charge of ''cruelty to animals On
this basis justice Williams found that
the Close brothers owed the pile $l2.6O,
and at the hour of going to press he
was ascertalning how much dividend,
jointly and severally, is due by Allen
and Watson.

Public Meeting,

A number of citizens--insiders and
outsiders, and some both-met in the
Wittig building Monday evening to
organize Il league of defence against
corporate encroachment upon their
right to stay outside of town limits, if
they want TO.
George H. Wittig called the meeting
to order and was subsequently chosen
chairman, with Henry Lapp as secre-
tary and Henry krause treasurer.
The last named, Mr.. Krause, was
the first speaker. He laid it down
hat-footed that in his opinion the Act
extending the limits is unconstitu-
tional.
Conrad Behan moved that each in
terested citizen present deposit at once
81 toward the institution of defence
fund and that a committee be appoint
ed to consult an attorney concerning
the towns entertainment upon outside
territory aud people.
John Weigand held that it would be
falrer to approach, consult aud solicit
each in interest for money to defray
the expense of defence. He did not
believe in the principle that few
should fight the battle of all.
George Mayer suggested that COM
mlttee be appointed to visit each prop
erty.owner taken in the corporate
limits and have him agree not to pay
any corporate taxes until a test case
has been made of the matter.
This motion was submitted and
carried.
Mr.. Mayer led off with 81 paid down
and was followed until the treasurer
had corlalled 1913.
Then Mr.. Mayer moved that com
mittee of two residents of each absorb
ed portion of town be appointed to
visit all who had been lassoed and
solicit funds for defensive purposes.
This motion was also adopted, and
the chair appointed Messrs. William
Griffith and John Weigand for all that
part OF town ying the other side of
':l4ast Chance,' aud Messrs. George
Mayer and John r. Davis for the end
which does not wish to grow inward
anymore.
Conrad Behan moved committee
of two to consult b. A. Richmond, a
member of an organization regarded
by the Frostburg Forum as an iron
bound machine with II one-year time
clock dingus for keeping tab on law
students, concerning the legality of
annexation without popular consent,
it to employ him to make Rome howl.
Carried, and the house appointed
Messrs. Wittig and Behan.
George Mayer moved adjournment
to meet again Friday evening, June 3.
