CITY COUNCIL HAS A BUSY

the council should advertise for bids for the eompleslOn of the work If such was to be the policy Of the council and relieve a hostile committee. M. Conway thought the request a reasonable one as did others bu, lt was finally decided that the council should visit the wing dam tomorrow and Investigate.
 An ordinance was pass.d making it un- lawful ior any one except an emplove oi a company operating railroads to board a moving train ln the city limits. The pen alty Is a fine Of not less than ss nor more than s2o.
 The mayer called up the matter Of a base line or the permanent marking ot sta7tlng points from which surveys can be made Of ln the townsite. Mr. Ruud, the city snl ins,r. addressed the council on the
 nhjee'. He sald all that was required WIS the ,srpe,uatlOn of T. Il. Reid sur yey by establishing hubs ln such a away that they would last forever. The Reld hubs wsre rotIng, he said, and would not last many wears more, and, further, that some O. them had been moved. This he had done by sinking rocks two feet under the grade and by drilling holes In them and after settllng, filling the holes with metal and driving copper tack in the proper place. He had then tied these per- minent hubs to the government post. All that would be necessary, he said, was to record the notes of his work. Guthrie and Andrews were appointed special com mlttee to investigate the matter.

Flower boleros represent the latest idea
In floral garniture so much in favor this

A new idea Is that the summer girls

Three-strapped tan slippers are smart
additions to an evening gown OF a. castor
shade, also tan shoes, laced with ribbon.
Low shoes which are not much more
than slippers except that they have a
thicker sole are the correct thing for sum-
mer wear.
Belts of pongee, with embroidered ends

The lighter tones of suede are being

LOVE MAKING IN MEXICO.
Tender Passion More Romantic and
Ideal Than in Northern Chimes.

Sentiment as 1t exists among the Latins
Is probably almost beyond the conception
OF the more practical northern nations.
The mere fact Of their courtship, conducted
On such entirely idealistic lines, love bred
by q glance, fostered by feeting glimpses
or a stray word or two, a profile at the
window, a shadow on the curtain, all at
the expense of hours of waiting below in
the dark street, these go to show how far
sentiment plays a part in the life Of the
youths Of both sexes in this sunny south
land
1t is not unusual for courtships here to
last for years-nve, ten, fifteen even. And
all that time the intercourse between the
lovers is Of the most evanescent descrip-
ton, this doubtless serving to preserve
the sentiment and romance for both. A
man who loves hopelessly, who never hopes
to be united with the object Of his pas
sion, yet who will ride for miles at night
for the consolation Of stopping his horse
beneath her window and watching there
until the morning, has certainly a vein OF
sentiment that to many is incomprehensible.
A certain man, old now. haired,
shaky In his gait, was when young most
happy in his love affairs. He was some
thing Of a dandy in those days and carried
q fine zarape with the long fringe often
seen in these graceful coverings. 1t was
his custom. however, merely to throw the
Zarape over one shoulder, as his hardy,
young frame felt no need Of artificial
warmth. One night as he stood at his
lady's "reja'' (the house was but one story,
which Is a blessing to lovers) the girl
reached through the bars and braided three
little pigtails in the fringe of the zarape.
That was forty years ago. The dark-eyed
owner of the tiny hand that made the pig
tails has long been in her grave, but on
q sunny morning the owner of the zarape
may be seen taking the air on one of the
plaza benches and over one shoulder he

II Is told of this same aged beau that
he had once a tremendous affair with a
lovely girl and finally succeeded in gaining
admission to the house for a tete-a-tete,
the family being called away and the serv-
ants yielding to the persuasions OF the
young people. A close and trusted friend
was left outside on guard to warn the
lover Of the family's approach. He had
just snseonsed himself snugly in a dark
doorway and prepared himself for a long
vigil when, to his amazement. the lover
came hurriedly from the house and. thrust
ing his arm through that OF his friend,
dragged him away, declaring that 1t was all
on, that he had suffered the greatest disil-
fusion Of his life.

Proper Sporting Dneasea
Sleeves, by the way, continue TO wax
Instead OF wan in size, and Il Is amazing
to view some Of the new golf, croquet and
tennis gowns provided with puffs and cuffs
that more nearly resemble a court coat
Of the time OF Louis XIV. A pair OF very
modern sporting suits are sketched to in

NEW YORK, May SO.-we have bad q de-
nghtfully green spring with a promise that
verdant tones will prevail through the sum
mer. This pleasant state OF affairs is in
no way due TO natures aid, for It Is the
art OF fashion that began to pAtronize the
tope OF the verdure. A touch Of green is
apparently essential with every toilet.
Nearly all Of the new tweed travelling suits
modestly follow the lead OF the wells, para
soils, etc, and show a gay green thread
interviewer with the brown, grey or blue
mesh. Green-stained leather oxford ties
are more popular with linen suits than
brown shoes and every woman who buys q

out for green buttons and taffeta straps by
, way OF appropriate decoration.

ways In which green does duty in the

The hrst Of these, the enc to the right hand,

BILE pattern on a cream white ground. The

through its transparent mesh an underlin-
ing Of green taffeta and the yoke OF white

was In the beginning. Sometimes there are
fewer accordion pleats seen and sometimes
there are a greater number In evidence,
but the idea and execution Is always per-
fectly good fashion and this season 1t is a
most fashionable fashion for evening gowns
and for slender women. Smartest among
smart clothes is the sun pleated gown Of
cream white creped chiffon, dropped on a
tinted silk skirt that is yelled with fine
white Brussels net. From twenty to fifty
yards of chiffon are easily pleated into one
skirt and about a third Of that amount into
the waist and sleeves Of 4 properly made
costume. Liberty crepe and taffeta soy
euse and silk point esprit and mercerized
English muslin and silk null are all de-
lightful materials for sun pleating. So very.
very full are all these skirts that when
the wearer OF one Of them moves the
ereases In the thin light fabric break into
Q perfect foam of crinkly widths. The
proper pleats for this season are deeper
thar ever before and the bottom edge Of
the skirt ought to be finished only by the
silken selvage OF the wide thin material.
Stout women who yearn after the grace
Of the sun pleated f~ullness, have black
ereped chiffon masses dropped over white
silk skirts that are covered with two THICK
nesses each Of black net.
Daring Toilets for Salt baths.
Ever gayer and more daring grow the
bathing dresses. Double skirts and suits
OF white trimmed with black stir fem
mime interest along the beaches. A white
serge dress set Of with stitched bands Of
dead black mohAir will catch the eye in
q crowd arrayed In colors. especially II
the wearer ties up her fair hair IL a cool
black silk kerchief. There are those who
hold that the bathing skirt cut to sim

there are equally expert bathers who in

comfort when in the sea. However, that
nay be. the double skirt has come evidently

furthermore 1t Is braided. Very recently

In other departments Of sport there are
even less evidences OF severe dressing than
about the bathing beaches. Women go
automobiling in trained gowns with rather
vide-brimmed white hats bound with green
velvet ribbon aud decorated with big chOux
and tails OF the same. The semi-profes-
sional red has disappeared, not only from
