the points, the center large. the others

Special Correspondents Of The Sunday Republic.
Paris. Feb. 3.-In spite of the frost and
wintry winds, the ladies' tailor and the
fashionable modiste are busy with gowns of
the Nghtezt coloring. S~trappings are still
in favor. but narrow braid and fine silk
cord are used with cloth ~strappings. which
are wider than formerly. Cut or stenciled
cloth is arranged over velvet. Silk of a con-
trasting color is very modish.
Getaway coats. with medium basqucs, are
shown, but the tailors believe that IT will
be difficult to introduce anything To check
the career Of the bolero. which seems as
popular as ever. The Louis coats are fash
ionable. and are so mart and chic that
they are certain to be favored for spring
wear. I have seen a costume In this style
of dull rose frieze, with black velvet, black
silk cord and quaint buttons OF paste and
enamel.
A few silk ruffes are worn at weddings
and smart "at homes" There is usually a
muf to match. as fur does not accord with
the fuzzy ruffie or boa.
Flat buttons Of old silver are much
in demand for orpamenting dark
gowns. but those used on the Louis coats
are very elaborate and for embroidered
Ball buttons Of crystal or pearl are new.
but the Dresden buttons are exquisite. and
rhinestones are attractive when well set.
Triple Skirt Has Not
Achieved Great Distinction.
The triple skirt is fashionable. but has
not achieved much distinction in some
places. The blouses show no exaGgeration
OF the width Of the shoulder. Many models,
however. are increased in width. and are
quite full and pouched. Broad bands of
trimming completely enciroling the bust are
shown. and these are sometimes arranged
TO suggest a bolero.
Wraps for carriage and demitoilet wear
are charming in white or pale-colured cloth.
and are in sack-coat form with wide sleeves.
Soft satin. much trimmed with chiffon and
lace. is the up-to-date coat for evening
wear. and all the newest models have open
ings at the sides, to permit the. skirt TO be
raised

Hats for Children Will

Hats for children seem inclined TO he very

the brim. 4 quaint poke bonnet Is OF soft.
white straw. having a row OF pink roses
under the brim and nodding white ostrich
tips outside. tied with gauzy strings. This
style Is typical OF several others in varying
sizes. which. il they had a lace curtain
ADDED TO them. would be reminiscent of the
bonnet worn by Queen Victoria in the we'll
known picture painted soon after her coro-
ration.
The new batiste work is. perhaps. the
most fascinating. from the open-work pat
terms TO the handsome. wide design. The guip-
ure dart is also most effective. while in

are first and foremost Linen laces are
greatly in vogue. In Chartilly lace. white
or black. there is a very effective design.

Ruffes and Cravats Which
Freshen Il Toilet.
Pretty ruffies and cravats which DO so
much to freshen up a toilet for the early
spring, are already being shown in the
shops. There Is IA new style in the latter,
which partakes OF the nature OF a collar.
1t is made in clear white muslin, resting In
prim folds, on the shoulders, the one being
frightened by a knot CT pale-blue satin rib
toH. the other having a fote OF pink intro
duced into the embroidery at the ends The
stiff collar to a bodice or shirt Is quite i'm
possible now. SO that an adaptable lace col
lar becomes a necessity. A pretty one Is in
ecru lace. run through with several rows
of bebe ribbon. Each row Is in a different
color. and is finished of with knots Of mul-
ti-colored ribbon. back and front. A beau
tiful ruffie is made Of black and white chif-
fon. inlet with flower gariands of black
Chantilly lace.
A charminU hat seen recently was In corn
colored straw trimmed with a fall of lace
all round the orim. Outside the sunken
crown was a wreath of f~orget-me-nots and
pink button roses.

AND BEAUTY BLOOM
OF The EASTER HAT.
RY NARTHE DEY.

Written FOR the Sunday RspuhlnlC-
Easter hat in embryo.
Pause for a space. We lilies CT tie field.
and give a thought to this bit of feminine
attire. Consider it before it assumes i
definite shape, before It bursts upon YOU in
all the glory OF its ravishinE picturesque
beauty. Think of il as COthing more than
an abstract tumble of wires. ribbons and
flowers. straws and laces: when its condi-
ton is just a hopeless tangle. utterly de-
void of even ii slight degree of attractive
ness, and when the chic air you expected il
to possess seems as utterly incongruous in
connection with that gaunt wire frame as
a snow furry in August.
To observe the progress of the Easter hat
as IL Is being put together. step by step and
bit by bit, Is more than ordinarily interest
ing. The process is Il slow one. 10 be sure,
for the dainty CONNECTION which every fash
ionable woman orders long before the last
day OF her Lenten devot!ons tand which she
makes q point of not wearing on Easter
morning. is not built In a day. In fact, Its
evolution IS as gradual and as complex as
the budding and blossoming of flower laden
trees.
Perhaps madame the milliner has taken
a few pointers from Madame Spring herself.
for natures trimmers and decorators are
wonderfully clever in their method of put
ting the spring wardrobe into shape for the
long and tedious summer and madame the
milliner could well learn a lesson there.

Of money. a draft on Kansas City bank

cHlckAsHA DOCTORS SCRAP
Medical Society Attack the Right
of Local Government Officers.

Chickasha, l. T. Sept. 27.-The Chicka-
sha Medical society is after the scalps
of Mayor r. F. Scoffern and City Ply
sician T. H. East. Before the United
States district counrt yesterday acting
counsel for the Chickasha Medical society
filed injunction proceedings to prevent
Mayor Scofern from receiving any more
salary, to compel him to return that
already received; to declare the ordinance
creating the Office of city physician void
and TO compel the city physician to re-
turn SIZE city scrip received as salary.
The instrument also asks that the city
attorney be enjoned from receiving any
further fees, that the police judge be en-
joined from turning over to the city at
torney any further fees, and to enjoin the
city collector from receiving any of the
abov mentioned scrip in payment of taxes
The city council is also party to the
action.
The suit is supposed to be an outgrowth
of the municipal row which has been on
ever since DR.. East was appointed city
physician. The end is not yet, either.

BOY DRAGGED TO DEATH
Harry Baird, Son Of Luther Farmer
Meets Horrible End.

Luther, o. r., Sept 27.-The Luther
Register gives the details of a boys
death as follows: Harry Baird, between
13 and Il years Of age. son of S W Baird
OF near Garden. was found dead in his
fathers pasture early in the week. He
went out 70 catch a horse to take to
the house. being sent By Charley. an
older brother who wanted the horse TO
ride 10 attend tho evening meeting at
Luther. II was about noon when he
sent the boy out. and the boy not re-
turning 10y the time he thought he
should. Charley went out after the horse
himself. and finding tho horse IN the pas
ture with the rope on him. caught him
and rode of TO town. thinking nothing
strange of il. as the horses are often
turned out with the rope on them. and
supposed Harry had gone TO one Of
the neishbor's to play with the boys
instead Of bringing UP the horse. When
Nr and Mrs. Baird who were away
from home. returned iu the evening. not
finding Harry they supposed he had gone
for the cows. but when he did not bring
them UP al the usual time and it began
u grow late and still he did not come.
the parents became uneasy lest some
thing ont OF the ordinary had befanen
him. and making inquiries and hearing
nothing OF him. the nishborhood was
aroused and a general search began. re-
sulting ia the finding Of the BOYS body

si.ppostion is that thu boy had caught
