Here's the latest order Of things IN the
world Of fashion. First select the trim
ming, then plan the gown. From the
plainest walking costume to the most
elaborate ball gown it's the trimming that
tells.
And such tempting trimmings as the
shops are showing. Every sort Of en-
broidery is to be seen, and many are the
ways it is used. Wool embroidery worked
on canvas bands Is new and fashionable,
and 50 also are the oriental embroideries.
the Chinese and Japanese designs worked
In fine. gayly colored silks on satin and
silk bands. Then there are the effective
bead embroideries which are much used
on cloth, velvet and even on many of the
flmy evening gowns. The braid TRIM:
mings are more elaborate than they have
ever been, and many of them are COM
bined with velvet and lace. Silk cords.
spikes and tassels in varied designs are
among the trimming novelties, and cloth
app1iques are decidedly the vogue Buttons
are the fashion In all sizes and used In
many new ways The button In its rela-
tion to dress Is now more for ornament
than USE. And many Of the newest but
tons are artistic enough to rightly be re-
garded as an ornament. AS for the laces
they are used lavishly as trimmings.
There Is a revival of the antique altar
lace, and deep bands Of it decorate the
pale tinted cloth gowns which are so
much in fashionable favor just now. Ital-
liam f1let lace both In separate motifs and
bands Is also the mode and very many
Of the laces have their designs traced in
colored silk threads. A trimming much
in vogue used In combination with dark
cloth gown consists of a band Of velvet
with lace designs appliqued upon it at
short intervals, and each one of the lace
designs is embroidered in silk threads.
Stitched silk bands in graduated widths
trim a number of the imported black lace
gowns, and the effect is unusually smart.
Too much cannot be said in favor of the

Schumacher read law with Judge r. B.
Galusha, and then entered the law
school of Columbia college, New York,
and supplemented that course at the
University of Michigan. Upon return
ing to st. Paul he was called upon to
take up the business of his father and
has continued it with unVarying sue
cess.
Mr.. Schurmeier evinced a marked
taste for politics and started on what
promised to be a brilliant career, which
was cut short by the demands of his
business. He was for years the chair
man of the Third Ward Democratic or
ganiZation, and was elected to the leg
iSlature of 1895 as a member of the
house.
AS legislator he demonstrated his
worth, his civic zeal and his ability and
disposition to protect the interests Of
the laboring men, of whom he has al
ways been a champion. He passed the
law prohibiting the contract system in
penal institutions, one of the first steps
in the march of emancipation or or
ganiZed labor. He also passed the full
citizenship bill, and secured the pas
sage of the law requiring candidates
wishing to run Independently to Sc
cure the signatures of a fixed percent
age of the voters of their districts,
which resulted in greatly simplifying
Minnesota's elections.
He was a party worker before he at
tanned his majority, and in 1880 was
one Of the most popular stump orators,
touring the counties of what was after
ward the Fourth district, with Albert
Scheffer and Judge Willis for Rice.

ance in the person of DR.. A. w. Jones,
Of Red Wing, who also consulted with
the secretary of state.
The lobby of the Merchants hotel
yesterday resounded with a bUzzing of
Third district Republicans, like the
threatenings from a hive of highly in
censed bees. There was trouble in the
air and Mr.. Van SAINT, governor of
Minnesota and would-be dictator Of the
actions of the entire Republican par
ty, was "cussed' in terms choice and
highly descriptive.
The filing of Giedon S. Ives, the ad-
ministration candidate, was the prime
cause of the disturbance. When the
announcement of Ives formal candida
cy reached st. Peter, it precipitated an
incipient riot. County Attorney C. r.
Davis was in st. Paul and the tele-
grams began to fly to st. Paul bidding
him file for the nomination before he
left st. Paul. Doubtful of the efficacy
of their kilograms a delegation of To-
cal leaders was rounded up and sent on
the first train to st. Paul yesterday
morning.

and Jones were both on the books as
candidates.
Davis went hone last night and he
may eventually get in the running,
but the probable outcome of the pow
vows yesterday will be a centraliza-
ton of the organized forces behind
Morrison, who has been considered the
HeatWole candidate since Whitford an
nouncad he would not run. Jones can
didacy is generally considered as only
a feeder to the Morrison campaign and
a move to head off a counter march in
Goodhue county.

tive and prominent part in the COM
mercial activity of st. Paul. He was
born in st. Paul in 1857, and educated
in the st. Paul public schools. Then
he removed to Carver county, near
Waconia, where hard work on the farm
rounded out the splendid physique
which makes him a marked man.
Twenty-one years ago he returned to
st. Paul to enter upon his business
career. He was employed by E. f.
BerriSford as travelling salesman, and
in five years of hard work and unceas-
ing attention to detail made reputa-
ton which resulted in his being placed
in charge of the entire Northwestern
business of the Friend Bros, in Janu-
airy, 1886. His successful prosecution
of that business has put him in touch
not alone with the commercial inter
ests of st. Paul, but of the entire
Northwest.
Mr.. Vessel has always exhibited
civic pride in a marked degree, and as
a taxpayer and member of the Com
mercial club has taken an active part
in many movement for the advance
ment of the city.
He has always been a Democrat, but
with a single exception has never as
pired to official honors. Eight years
ago he was a candidate before the
Democratic convention for nomination
for city treasurer. He lost the nominal
ton, and went out of the convention to
work day and night for his successful
opponent, John WAGNER, who was
elected.
Mr.. Vessel goes before the public
as a business mans candidate and
stands on a platform which pledges
him, if elected, to a business adminis-
tration of the Office and which, if he
fails to secure the nomination. pledges
him to the support of the Democrat
who is more successful. He is of Ger
man extraction, and has the support of
some prominent German American
citizens.

their hands and support Davis If he
would consent to be the man to whip
Ives SO hard that he will never again
dare to attempt to break into politics.
They put 1t to Davis in the light of a
patriotic duty which he owed not alone
to the district, but to his own town
and county to squelch the man, who
had run as Democrat and as Re-
publican and willing to run as any old
thing to secure Office.
They recalled to Davis, the local
standing of Ives, who they said could
not be elected as a delegate in his own
precinct. Davis admitted all this, but
said he did not want to run for con-
gress. He has his eye fixed on some
thing else, namely, the state senate,
and does not care to change his plans,
when some one else can whip Ives just
as well, if not as effectually.

Then the troubles broke out afresh.
A mass conference resulted and docu-
mentary evidence was produced to
show the administrations hand in the
candidacy of Ives. Even that did not
bring positive answer from Davis.
Another conference later in the after
noon brought forth some definite ac-
ton in that within an hour Morrison
