Many Novel Features In Gloves For
Spring Wear.
White gloves have been in regular
fashionable standing for twelve years
now, and by all signs and omens for
reading the future they are good for
another dozen years of modish patron
age. Very heavy cream-whitc dog
skin gloves are the choicest dress for
the hands In the morning. These
boast one button, not of the patent
clasp variety. and because they are
of the shape and color and easy wrin-
kled fit of those worn by the smart
Jehus who adorn the boxes of hand
some private carriages they pass un-
der the very descriptive title of coach
mans gloves.
There is a gun metal gray glace
glove stitched in white. or silk of the
same shade as the kid. and fastened
with large silver buttons, that strug-
giles with some success for recognition
among the well-gowned shoppers, who
call them coaching gloves. In reality
they are meant for wear on the box
seat of a trap, and because every wom-
an does something more or less ath-
letic these days. the morning gloves
are as loose as the skin on a high-bred
dogs back.
For afternoon and evening the spring
modes in gloves have novel features.
Pure white and very thin suede, em-
broidered elaborately in black or a
color. is of the novelties novel. En-
broidery is considered especially APP
proprlate on the long gloves. The
needlework begins at the back of the
hand. goes wreathing gracefully around
the arm and flowers out in a petal
shaped edging at the end. somewhere
in the region of the shoulder. Some
brave spirits are exploiting with their
black evening gowns long black suede
gloves brilliantly embroidered in sill
yer, into the mesh of which an occa-
sional rhinestone is woven.
With black gloves it is not at all on.
of the way to wear gants de suede in
gun metal color enllyened by daz-
zling row of rhinestone buttons set in
gun metal frames and running FROM
the wrist nearly TO the shoulder. White
gloves of this same type have been
seen with little round bullet turquoise
buttons. and ON the arm a bracelet OF
two is worn just 10 show the glitter of
the Jewels against the dusky kid sur
face.
With shepherdess straws and posey
musllns long black or white embroid-
cred mtten gloves will be worn when
summer luncheons. summer morning
dances. etc, begin. These mittens are
woven in reality of very stout black
silk thread, and then. in fanciful de-
signs. wreaths and points and circlets
of black lace are judiciously applied.
The top of the mitten is made fast by
two straps of black satin ribbon to the
shoulder and half thumb of net holds
everything firm about the hand. In
our midsummer, when gloves in the
evening seem intolerably hot, and yet,
with dancing gowns of Swiss or organ
die. every woman wishes for some
covering for her arms. these mittens
are not only useful, but highly orna-
mental, and display white hand ana
brilliant rings to the greatest adVan-
tage. e.-Washingto Star.

Gladstone BORED the Queen.

Gladstone had manners. but no small
talk. A story once very widely clrcu-
lated was that Mr.. Gladstone habitu-
ally treated Queen Victoria rudely.
Perhaps the famously polite queen
thought 30 herself. for 1t is said that
she once remarked. 'He speaks to me
as though l were a public meeting"
and as he Is said to have harangued
her about the polity Of the Hittites or
the harmony between the Athanasian
creed and the poetry OF Homer. there
would appear to have been some truth

From Paris, whence all new styles
emanate, comes a decided change in
hairdressing. Just as most women
are beginning to enjoy doing their
tresses pompadour, for it takes some
time to adapt the hair TO this fashion,
comes the mandate that high coiffures
are no longer the thing. Fors months
In Paris modlsh women have worn
their hair low on the neck. II is likely
to be some time, however, before
this fashion is in vogue here. But
what a welcome change if it would
find some immediate followers. Truly
the pompadour is becoming monoto-
nous, and so many women wear 1t de-
spite the unbecomingness.
The loosely waved and dropping
locks of hair falling on one side or
both sides of the face are becoming
10 almost any one who has pretty hair.
The effect is rather artistic, as well as
chic, and the mode offers excellent op-
portunity for floral decoration in the
evening.
Gold or silver leaves are rather pret-
ty to wear in the evening coihure
They are combined with roses OF the
same gauze or soft chiffon, flowers
and a small aigrette.
The girl who does her hair loosely
puffed out at the sides is wearing soft
poppies dropping in it on each side OF
the face, something after the style of
the chryssnthemum-decked Gelsha
girl.
Black gauZe wings, sparkling with
gold or silver spangles, are much worn
in evening coffures.
When the low coil is worn at the
nape of the neck big bow Of tulle or
gold tissue holds 1t in place. and the
effect is very fairy-llke and dainty.
Young girls are wearing for evening
parties strands of pearl, turquoise and
coral beads braided in their hair. An
other idea is TO braid narrow velvet
ribbon Of black or any other shade
with their hair, which is then looped
up and tied with velvet bow at the
nape of the neck.
The handsomest combs are set with
colored stones and various other orna-
ments done in yari-colored stones are
shown. Sometimes they dangle on lit
tie chains which are fastened to hair
pin.

Kansas City, Mo. July 27--GeneraI
rains which have fallen over the great
er part Of western Missouri and Kan
sas in the past tweDty-four hours have
given this portion Of the southwest
temporary relief from the severe
drOuth. Yesterday was the twenty
fifth successive day in which the max
lmum temperature Of the two states
had ranged from 100 degrees up. Re
ports received at the railroad head
quarters indicate that the rains fell in
the western half of Missouri and in
nearly all parts Of Kansas, with the
exception of few northwestern cOun-
ties
The fail was heaviest between Kan
sas City and Maple Hill, Kan, four
counties west of here. In. some places
in the eastern half of Kansas the fan
measured two and One-half inches.
/ Good rains are also reported along the
Memphis railroad as far south as Ar
kansas, and as far east as the Missis-
sippi river. Rain fell at different points
all day today and is still coming down
/ tonight.
1t is believed the rain will be of bur
little benefit to corn. However, with
the most favorable conditions from now

may yet have enough hay to feed stock
during the coming winter.
Frederick Weuhouse, one of the

ties of fruit viii make an average crop,

Kansas City stCckmen are rejOiced

grass to feed their stock, and will not
have to rush immature cattle to mar

were the largest in the history of the
