NEWEST FADN IN
BELTS and CHAINS
Ornaments Which Tend To
Show Feminine Form
and Character

The belt is the most important detail
VI miladrs costume. 1t both flatters
and caricatures the waist line. 1t can
either cause II TO look two inches
smaller or three inches larger. It
makes or mars a dress and by its out
line shows whether the wearer is In
fashion or not. Consequently perhaps
the greatest ingenuity Of designers is
devoted to this article. Every month
new patterns appear, and mlladi buys
them, for who could resist a pretty
belt7 Not the woman with a trim fig
ure certainly.
Just now there is a return to leather.
You may remember that last year It
was rather I'm disgrace. Little crushed
satin affairs We're worn even with
golf and outing skirts, but now all that
is changed. To be in the height Of
fashion you must have at least four
strips Of leather-patent, red, white
and tan-and "bit buckle" TO go with
oil of them. This is the latest thing.
AS its name implies, II is an exact
counterpart of a horses bit. 1t comes
both in gold and silver and has a pat
ent arrangement by which it can be
fastened to any belt at moments no.
tice. Another novelty Is what looks
like a strap from a harness fastened by
a gold horseshoe buckle. Scarfpins
representing the different parts of a
carriage or of the accouterments of a
horse are sold to wear with these belts.
Everything is very horsy.
Strange to say. the leather idea Is
carried out even in dressy belts. There
is a dainty little girdle composed OF
five narrow strips Of pale gray. white
or lavender kid and held in place by
jeweled crossbars. With this there is
dog collar OF narrow strips with a
gorgeously jeweled buckle in front
These collars are meant TO be worn
over plain stocks of contrasting shades.
A necktie which is an outcome Of this
tad is a strip Of leather half an inch
wide incrusted at intervals with little
silver ornaments and finishing M front
with a clasp and two short ends.
Still you must not imagine that the
silk and ribbon belts have gone out OF
style. Far from ii. They are more
numerous and gorgeous than ever. To-
ward the latter end of the summer
there was a tendency TO wear them
narrow, but now all widths are per-
missible and almost all styles. Nest
of the belts are made on n foundation
Of stiffening, and when they are soft
and crinkly there is usually a slide in
the back to pull out the ribbon to It's
full width and give the waist the fash
ionable slope which is the thing.
The craze for gilt is never SO appar-
ent as IN the belts. The gold ones
range from the narrowest ribbon with
a tiny pearl or black enamel buckle to

in such a way that nobody at the
asylum would know that it would
reach the patients counsel. AS show

No Bodies Recovered by
SearcherS Last Night
ARE TALKING OF PROSECUTION
Sulphur and Potash, Kept in UnlaW-
full Amount, May Have Caused
The Disaster

New York, Nov. IA revision maut
last night OF those persons missing and
thought to have perlshed In the explo
sion and FIRE at Tarrant & Cos drug
house shows 20 unaccounted for. OF
this number four are known at the ad
dresses given by the persons reporting
them as missing. Out of the whole
number eight are put down by the po-
lice as employees of Tarrant & Co.
Not a single body had up to 10
o'clock last night been found in the
ruins, though what looked like parts
of bodies have been dug out. 1t begins
TO look as if what remains are in the
mass OF debris which still cumbers the
place and Will be totally unrecogniza-
BILE as of human composition even
should the wOrkmen find them. This
is because of the tremendous heat
caused by the explosion and the fire
and the fusing of materials which,
running together. form a mass of all
sorts of stuff. For instance what was
supposed to be parts of bodies taken
from the ruins Tuesday night turned
out on examination at the morgue to
be blackened pieces of melted gum
Arabic. Again yesterday another mass
was found which the workmen first
thought to be human flesh. but Is now
thought to be melted rubber. The
searchers have found in the ruins of
the Home Made hotel a number Of
articles such as books, a Handkerchief,
a cigar holder, etc, but whether their
owners escaped or not is unknown.
The authorities in the meantime are
pushing the investigation into the
amount of explosives stored in the
building with view to prosecutions.
Along this line Secretary Augustus F.
Docherty of the fire department, in
speaking of the cause of the explosion,
said:
THE combustibles carried by Tar
rant & Co. we're largely in excess of
what were allowed them under the law
and their permit granted by the fire
department and in consequence Of this
fact they have violated the law. BY
violating the terms of the permit they
have committed misdemeaner, which
not only vitiates their insurance poli-
cies, but renders them criminally liable
and responsible for the damage to life
and property as a result Of the explo-
sion. The fire insurance companies
cannot be held for the damage"
