Items AbOut Dress for Ladies Who
Keep Pace with the
Times.

There are shown very handsome
assortment of poke bonnets. They are
pot extremely large. but are very styl-
ish; and, although but very few women
find them becoming, they will undoubt-
edly be quite generally worn on ac-
count of their picturesqueness and real
beauty. They are made over frame.
the brim being put on smoothly on the
outside. The inside is of shlrred crepe.
chiffon or lisse. One of these bonnets
Is Of heliotrope velvet on the outside
and inside aR exquisite shade of tea
rose lhnk The trimming Is Of hello
trope feathers and bows Of heliotrope
ribbon with pansies that look as though
they might have been brought from the
florists for this special purpose.
One of the most stylish capes of the
season has a yoke of brocaded velvet in
brown and wood colors. The figures
on the velvet are outlined with beads.
and the leaves are veined with a deli
cate tracery Of iridescent threads.
From this yoke frill of broadcloth falls
to the waist line. This frill is wrought
in the same beads as those IN the yoke.
At the lower edge Of this cloth portion
there is triple frill of taffeta in the
three shades Of the brocade. This frill
has pinked edges and is set on with
gimp made of fine iridescent beads.
There is but little in the new shirt
waists that differ from those hereto
fore worn. In general effect they are
quite the same. Yokes may be varied In
shape and collars show some slight
changes, but not enough 10 attract the
attention Of anyone but an expert. A
triiing departure is the round collar
turned over straight band. This is
new and makes variety which is always
liked, especially by young people who
are fond of dressy waists and novelties.
In the item of shoulder capes, fulfil
ness and an enormous amount of thin
material divide favor with cloth
trimmed with embroidery and passe-
menterie. A pretty model has a yoke
of broeaded satin, the figures Of which
are outlined bead embroidery. From
the yoke are deep ruffies of tOffeta and
ever these are frins OF silk muslin
headed by puffs of the same. A high
flaring collar is finished at the edge
with puffs Of muslin.
A princess Of heliotrope velvet opens
over n petticoat front Of yellow satin
emboidered with pearls. The edge OF
the velvet princess is finished with a
deep frill extending from the waist line
in front, down either side and around
the hem Of the dress. The garment was
fashioned upon the suggestion fur
nished by large purple rutiied-edged
pansy, and Is most admirably carried
out.
There is very little that is new il
mourning goods. For midsummer
wear nothing has yet been brought ou
that Is as beautiful and comfortable a
the fine clairette. For heavier weigh
tho priestly silk warp Henrietta re
mains the favorite fabric.
The ribbon counters are among tn
popular resorts for young women, ant
I the number OF collarettes, ties an,
other neck gear made from these beau
tiful fabrics is almost past computa

'In the riots at Ning-Po today a large
mob attacked the police station. The

Chinese local authorities expressed their

similar riots arose from a similar

The Monterey Is Expected to Take Them
on Her Way TO Manila.
WASHINGTON. July 1S.-The report
that the monitor Monterey would stop
at the Caroline islands on her voyage
TO Manila and take possession of them
in the name of the United States has
been practically confirmed. This policy
is in accordance with the determination
of the administration to assert authori-
ty over all Of Spain's possessions in the
Pacific. so that when the war ends there
will be no question as to the right OF
this government to dictate what shall
be done with them. 1t was in line with
this decision that the cruiser Charles
ton stopped at the Ladrones and hoisted
the stars and stripes.
The naval officials gave out the im-
preston at the time Of the Charles
toms exploit that the reason for taking
possession Of Guam. the principal island
of the Ladrone group, was that har
Dor should be secured in which the Mon
terey could coal without interference in

cautiously that the Monterey will prob

Lieut.. Yoshibumi Funigawa, OF the
j. N, left behind a curious request e.
his family a few days prior to his death
which occurred the other day in his ma.
tive district Of Hizen. He observed TO
his family that as he had never had time
to investigate religious questions deep
ly enough to enable him to determine
which faith he should embrace he was
neither prejudiced against nor partial
toward any form Of religion. However.
he himself was of opinion that his soul
would perish with the cessation Of life.
while his remains would crumble 70
dust. Therefore he did not wish TO
have any religious services performed
on his behalf, says the Japan Times.
The funeral also should be as simple
as could be and flowers and similar
offerings be strictly declined. No an
nouncement should be made of his
death TO friends Of his until four or five
days after the funeral. Two or three
weeks after his death his relatives and
friends should be invited to a banquet,
and they should be asked to enjoy the
occasion as heartily as possible A

We understand that there is
movement on foot among the Ger
mans in Hawaii to impeach the
present Consul G eneral, who, it is
claimed, has neglected the interests
OF the Germans residing here when
they were in "pilikia." The INDIE
PENDENT knows very little about the
affairs of the Germans here, but we
fail to understand why Johann
Viercke, German illegally confined
in Oahu Jail for three months, and
who gained his liberty only through
private sources and not through the
Imperial German Consulate, finds
no redress or help from Mr.. Hack
field. 1t seems to us that it is very
unfortunate that Germany should
be- represented here by a man who
is largely interested in the planta-
tions on which his countrymen are
employed. Mr.. Hackfeld, who re-
presents Germany in these islands,
is undoubtedly a highly educated
gentleman and a most worthy and
faithful servant of his country, as
long as his plantation interests are
