The ground now occupied by the
Seattle hotel was purchased by Mr.
Collins December 20, 1869: The COM
munity property statute was enacted
by the Legislature of the territory OF
Washington December 2, 1869.
In the session laws of the territory
compiled by Frank Pierce in 1895
which is in general use, this law con-
cludes with section %, which provides
that it shall go into effect upon it's pas
sage. Without that clause it would
not have gone into effect for 60 days
But the Law is Different.
In the hearing of the case yesterday
before Judge Joiner in the superior
court, William Martin, attorney for
the Collins estate, sprung a surprise
upon the attorneys for the claimants
by Offering a certified copy of the law
from the office of the secretary OF
state, which omits section 25. If that
record is correct, the law did not
go into effect until 40 days after the
property in question was purchased
by Mr.. Collins, and the heirs of Mrs
Collins could not claim under it.
The compilation of the session laws
by Mr.. Pierce contains upon it's title
page the statement that it is compiled
from the original rolls"
May Be In Error.
In making a transcript for the secre-
tary of states office a clerk may have
inadvertently omitted section 25. To
determine whether the law as passed
really contained section 25, which
would have put it in effect Immediate
ly, will be the object of an immediate
and exhaustive research.
Several heirs figure as plaintiffs in
the case, all grandchildren of the first
Mrs. Collins. They are represented by
John w. Roberts, John H. Powell and
Harold Preston, and a determined bat
tie is in progress. They claim alto
gether a one-siXth interest in prop
erty valued at 100000

bottom ruff1e has large lowered lace
designs outlined with bebe ribbon sc
narrow that it seems hardly more than
strands of coarse sewing silk.
The BUSINESS of women's gowns is
extending to children's clothes as well
and many a tiny tots party frock is
so swathed in chiffon and lace ruffies
that it is difficult to see in what ma
terial the design is developed.
Happily school dresses remain plain
A few bands of pretty braid Or a row
or two of fancy buttons about the yoke
and sleeves is the limit of childish
trimmings. Very pretty blouse dresses
are seen made of heavy vestings. These
are cOmfOrtabl and can be Numbered
easily, SO that it is possible for a miss
to be spic and span the season through
Children's coats are made of dark
blue and dull green cheviot lined with
red flannel. They are perfectly straight
from neck to hem and confined only
with belts of patent leather or of white
kid.
Youthful hats of scratched felt
beaver and the other materials con-
sdered ultra smart for grown-ups
are pretty. Simply bands of heavy
gros grain ribbon with probably a
brass button finish is all the trimming
necessary Sometimes the button is
replaced by a bow with streamers that
fall to the hem of the skirt.
Ermine is used exclusively for chill
dren's furs and the large flat bows are
the newest shape. Cute little stole
ends are shown on tiny collarettes OF
ermine, and for party wear these are
sometimes appliqued with designs of
lace, while the muff has rosettes OF
plated chiffon tackled here and there
with little ribbon bows.
Ultra-sm ladies' capes have very
graceful flowing sleeves and hoods OF
the same material faced with fancy
Distinguishing feature, and are made
in two parts There is a close fitting
under sleeve that gives the comfort OF
a coat, thus doing away with one great
objection to the cape; then there is a
full outer sleeve that falls into the
folds Of the cape and adds much to
it's beauty
Calling coats Of moleskin with bo-
leros Of heavy lace, studded with col
ored passamenterie, are chic and pref
