session yesterday. A mseter which occa-
stoned considerable controversy was
whether or not any call should be made
before the entire s.. 600 was subscribed
by the people. After several OF the COM
mittee had spoken on this at some length
IL was finally decided not to ask for
cent from the people Of 81. Louis until the
whole amount had been subscribed. This
decision is a guarantee that not more than
two calls OF 5 per cent. each Will he made
within the FIRST six weeks, and that not
more than d per cent can te asked In
any six months. The reports OF work ae-
ecmplshed were regarded a. most encour-
aging. and the feeling was that the entire
amount needed would be pledged within
the next thirty days.

4 LEGAL PUZZEE.

It is fitting that new wrinkles in di-
 vorce proceedings should make their
 first appearance in Chicago. The wife of Chicago doctor got divorce from him, and the court allowed her alimony which her husband was resolved not to pay Not complying with the order of the court he was arrested and put in jail Then he immediately filed a peti- ton in voluntary bankruptcy in the United States District court, which tribunal issued a writ enjoining the di- vorced wife and her attorneys from in- stituting commitment proceedings against him in the State court. Judge Kohlsaat holds that alimony due under State decree prior to adjudication in bankruptcy in the United States court is debt under the bankruptcy law. and that when a discharge is given in federal court all the money due under this decree hp to the time of discharge is set aside The counsel for the wife contends that no such thing was con- templated in the bankruptcy law, and that the law does not cancel as debt an obligation continuous in character which has been imposed by a State court. The case is destined to go to the Supreme court of the United States to decide this point of law.
 It is evident that the bankruptcy law wasn't intended to be used In the way the Chicago doctor has used it. but 1t can be so used remains to be seen. It was not intended to be used for dishonest purposes, but it is so used

<INOTHER MEETING.

This evening there will be another meeting of the committee to investigate the supervisor system in the public schools, and it is expected to be inter- esting. There seems to be a concerted, gay, delicate and strenuous effort to make it appear that the Investigation is of no use, but the effort is so very concerted, gay, delicate and strenuous that it seems to be just a triae over- done. We think it safe to continue to regard the committee as intelligent, and to congratulate it on being a not very humble instrument in bringing out much that is interesting to the tax payers, To be sure, there have been some unpieasan scenes. but the wrath of man is sometimes helpful to truth. We hope that if MT. Fox testifies this evening he will escape unscathed, at least as to his physical system.

He may let his beard grow long and become careless in keep ing his clothes dusted. Everything de- bends on the necessities of the case, but under no circumstances would he be permitted to bother with such cheap articles as wigs, false faces, mustaches and the like.

FASHION NOTES.
Less of silk Ltnings.

For the thin woman, as well as fol the girl whose neck is conspicuous fol beauty, a guimpe of sheer lace affords an excellent compromise. It should be made with sleeves and be worn under a blouse of silk or satin cut fairly low and with large armholes This for a dinner gown. The same idea is carried out for reception gowns the sleeved yoke or guimpe being, perhaps, of white satin stitched in silver thread, the blouse of cloth to match the skirt. A cape of cloth makes the costume in conspicuous for the street. The fancy is as suitable for the simplest mater

NON-CONCURRENC BY 1IISTA K F

NON-CONCURR BY lWIS11 K E.
 Non-concurrent action by mistake Is the very latest in the bands stand taken by the board of councilmen last evening, and the band-stand must now
 stay where 1t is until something parlia- mentary or violent is done. It is per- haps fitting that such a gorgeous mis- take as the band-sta was should breed such mistake as has been made in dealing with it. Let's take it easy. By and by, in the fitness of time, somebody will think something straight about the band-stand and do something straight about it. At present it is evil dently too much for the New Haven mind. There it stands on the Green as awkward as new boy in a school room where there is no seat for him. There is nothing to do except to wait until somebody finds place for it and puts 1t calmly and legally there. After what has happened it seems rather pre- posterous to expect calm and legal action, but let us not despair. Perhaps the tail of the comet has had a malign influence on New Haven's head, and she may be more lucid after the me teors have stopped shooting at or around her.
