The green room on the fourth floor of
L. s. Ayres & Co.'S big drygoods estab-
lishment has been the scene of many hand
some displays, none prettier or more at
tractive, however, than the exhibition of
silks, laces and summer fabric patterns
placed there this week.
AS a rule the softer and paler tints are
being carried out in the latest materials
for the season. White still seems to be as
popular as ever, although many of the del
icate Swiss and null gowns are elaborated
with a touch Of color, either in embroidery
or ribbon trimming. This same desire for
color tones in light costumes is also very
noticeable in the amount Of ribbon which
is being used, the demand for pretty ribbon
for sashes and bows being greater, prob
ably, than ever before. On display are a
number of patterns of sheer and delicate
fabrics ready to be fitted to the buyer,
which have combined most delicately in
their embroidery the beautiful combina-
tions of color which add greatly to the ap-
pearance Of 6ressy frocks. One pattern
from Switzerland, the source of the ma
jority of these exquisitely worked crea-
lions, has garlands of pale blue leaves in
terwoven in the lace edges which finish the
founce of the skirt Another attractive
robe is of silk linen, in the natural color,
which is trimmed with perpendicular inser-
tions of silk embroidery, consisting of
daisies and vines done in the soft pastel
shades.
The robe which graces the center of the
exhibit room Is one of the most attractive,
and is we'll worth the rather reasonable
value at which it is held. The gown is of
white lace, made partly by hand and part
ly by machinery, which insures greater
durability for wear. 1t Is arranged over a
drop of pink silk. which allows the exqui-
very best advantage.
Perhaps the daintiest models are those
for summer gowns. Silk mulls and Swisses
prevail in the patterns of this character,
various pretty lacy styles. For the bride
Is a filmy point d'esprit gown, which is
fashioned with an accordion ruff1e of .chif-
fon and horizontal rows of white ribbon
fagoted together on the skirt. A liberal
supply of the fagoted ribbon Is ready for
the trimming of the waist. Tub suits are
represented by a fetching pattern of blue
linen and torchon lace, the latter appliqued
on fiounce and waist In an attractive de-
sign. The advantage of purchasing these
already trimmed patterns is readily SEEN
The buyer not only Is enabled to see how
her gown will look when made up, but is
saved the trouble Of designing her costume
Yet with the great supply of deliberately
finished patterns the need Of separate trim
mings is not forgotten. Rows and rows of
beautiful bands for the establishment, of
handsome garments are to be seen. These
trimmings range In price as well quail
ity, some of them being marked from s. to
$40 yard. while others of simpler styles
cost much less. The Persian embroidery
bands are much in demand. and an espe-
cially handsome bit OF this trimming shown
has whole strawberries in the natural COL
ors OF the fruit and leaves woven In its
mesh.

CAULEY SUES FOR $4,000
HE WAS INJURED IN COLLAPSE OF

Another suit for damages against the city
Of Indianapolis and the Indianapolis Street.
railway Company as result of the col
lapse of the West washington-street bridge
is being heard in Room 2. Superior Court.
The case is that of William Cauley, who
fell with the bridge on Jan. 16, 1902, and
was injured. he claims. severely. His lower
limbs and body were bruised and the men,
tai worry and shock to his nervous system
damaged him in the sum of $4,000, which
he asks in the suit
Cauleys suit is being prosecuted by Daily
& Raub and George W. Calvin, attorneys.
while Deputy City Attorney Lynn d. Hay
and Will H. Latta represent the city and
the street car company. the defendants.
The plaintiffs application for damages Is
based on the negligence of the city in per-
hitting the bridge to be opened to trafhc
after the city engineer, James B. Nelson,
had declared the bridge unsafe and recon-
mended that it be condemned. The street
car company is held to be liable In that its
use of the bridge caused a weakening Of
the supports and precipitated the collopse.
Many witnesses were heard by the Jurors
yesterday and the case will be resumed to-
day. George Winters. a bridge expert, who
superintendent the construction of the
bridges on the Indianapolis & vincennes
Railway was witness for Cauley hy-
pothetical questions. Mr.. Winters was on
the stand for some time In explaining the
construction of the bridge from the charts
exhibited in court and theorizing on the
possibilities of collapse. He testified that
a bridge which fell as the Washington
street bridge had fallen was unsafe and
could easily have been strengthened to pre-
vent its collapse. He also said the bridge
was in a weakened state when opened to
traffic and should not have been forced to
stand the weight of the heavy traffic which
crosses over 1t all day long.

The most healthful of so-called breakfast
foods is a mush made of graham -four. 1t Is
delicious in flavor, easily digested and very
nourishing. To make graham mush:
Put a pint of water in a saucepan over
the fire and add teaspoonful of salt Put
six heaping tablespoonfuls of graham flour
in a bowl with enough cold water to make
thin paste of it; beat 1t with spoon till
all Jumps are out of the flour. When the
water in the saucepan comes to boil stir
in the moistened flour and let 1t boil about
five minutes, stirring ii constantly to keep

A solemn decree against the shirtwaist
has been put forth by the National Dress
makers convention. That cool and cheerful
article of attire is described ridiculous"
and further stigmatized as "too common
and too cheap" Perhaps the gist of the
enmity to it lies in the last charge. Dress
makers have a natural antipathy to any
thing that is cheap. Indeed, they confess
freely that the shirtwaist is running their
business. No doubt this is an adequate rea-
son for opposing it. But when they add
that it is ugly they are stretching the limits
of truth. Most girls look very fascinating
so clad.

Ernest Brown was fined $50 and cos IS
after being found guilty by jury in the
Criminal Court yesterday of selling impure
milk. Browns trial for violating the pure
food law was delayed for some time, and
his attorneys have offered several motions
to quash the indictment on the theory that
he did not know the milk sold was impure
Brown commended he had bought the milk
in the belief that it was of the standard
required by the city chemist.
