They Wish to Honor Mrs. Stevens.
Clubwomen of Chicago are putting
forth their best energies to name the
parental school soon to be built by the
board of education after Mrs. Alzina
Z. Stevens. who died Il few weeks ago.
For more than two years Mrs. Stevens
worked assiduOusly to have the bill
pass the legislature and finally sue
ceeded. After her return to Chicago
Mrs. Stevens worked with the board of
education to secure an appropriation
for the erection of the school. All
along she had great obstacles to en-
counter, but she overcame them, and
now the money is ready, the site is
chosen and the principal selected, but
as Mrs. Stevens could not live to see
the contamination OF her plans the
clubwOmen urge that she certainly
should be honored by the city.

Rufped Their Tailor Gowns.

Two thoroughly drenched and ruined
gowns formed the subject of two very
pointed letters from a duet of highly
indignant women to the engineer COM
missioner few days ago. The engi-
neer department is generally equipped
for estimating the cost of macadam
roads. granOlithic sidewalks and inter
cepting sewers, but when it comes to
calculating the cost of damages on one
fashionable tailor made suit and one
light summer gown the District COM
puters and surveyors back down and
run out n flag of truce.
1t appears that several days ago Mrs.
Eugenia L. Luther and Miss Jane B.
Meigs were out upon shopping eXpe-
dition. According to Mrs. Luther's let
ter to the engineer commissioner, She
was attired in n tailor made suit, for
which she had paid the sum OF $50.
Her companion. Miss Meigs, as stated
in her letter, was radiant In Il new
suit, for which - cold. hard, standard
pieces of the realm had been given to
certain makers Of women'S garments.
The two women had just emerged from
big dry goods store. Without Il word
uf warning Il three inch stream of PO-
tOmac water struck both women
squarely and fairly and almost carried
them off their feet. When the women
had recovered their composure suffi.
GENTLY to step away from the stream,
they found themselves drenched and
surrounded by curious crowd. Then
it was ascertained that the stream en-
anated from a fire plug at the end Of
the little triangular park at that point.
\ man with Il sprinkling can in his
hand stood fixed at the plug. His
mouth was open and his face aghaSt
at the ruin he had unwittingly caused.
Some one demonstrated with him. the
letters state. but he fed with agility
and vigOr.
Mrs. Luther and Miss Meigs gather
ed their dripping garments in their
hands and hurried to their homes. Mrs.
Luther, it is claimed. was just recover
ing from a severe cold and upon reach
ing her home was taken with a series
of chillS as a result of her impromptu
duCking and the shock. and q physi-
clan had to be summoned. Through
their attorney. Mr.. q. G. Meigs, the
women ask that the District govern
ment compensate them for their loss.
as they believe the man who caused
the mischief to have been an employee
of the District Washing
ton Post.

IaSe also looks as IL ii ought not TO
cost Il great deal But work OF that
kind takes nearly as much time. al
though il is the hardest thing in the
world TO convince women that such
things are costly. When they see lace
or sable. most of them are willing to
pay Il high price for il. although not
enough to allow us the profit we used
to make before such materials became
the style. But for workmanship they
hate to pay. even though that is al
most indispensable now.
Il had a hard time the other day in
persuading woman that white lin
en- waist was worth $40. That was
because it was not silk or velvet. But
the hand embroidery on the thing and
the other work made 1t quite as costly
to me. l would have made more out Of
It If the material had been satin and
had charged $50 more.
Even the tailors have found that
they do not make as much as they did
when q tailor made gown was necessa-
rily simple. Now the gowns are more
elaborate, with embroidery and other
ornaments that make them much more
expensive TO the tailors. Women are
willing to pay a certain advance, but
not enough to bring up the profit 10
what it was ten years ago. Those We're
the golden days. Then it was not such
difficult matter to make money in
this business, but 1t is hard for those
TO do 1t who are only beginning now.
