FANCY DRESS DETAILS.
New Fabrics and Designs That Wdll

The black materials are more varied
than Of yore; there are some tempting
transparent fancy grenadines, singu-
larry c.tt >, Whic.4 make up very well
over white. as las i.lon dictates, reports
the Brooh.y III EtSie.
Black evening uresses are likely to
be as much in Lemand as ever especi-
ally those that have the upper part
covered with minute paillettes, very
small at the waist and increasing in
size as they descend. A beautiful tulle
skirt thus treated met a trimming at
the foot composed of inch-wide satin
ribbon and lace insertion.
Many of the new Serges are trimmed
at each seam, but have no Innings, and
drop fringes, gimps, and ornaments ap-
pear on most gowns. A Afavorite'form OF
gimp has graduated ''rondels" filled in.
in the center with crossing stitches.
A charming white tulle dress lightly
dotted with spangles, has fringe Of
pink roses on the hem, and black net
dress closely covered with silver span
giles, lined with white, bears applica-
tions Of white roses with excellent ef-
feet.
The short sac-bolero, cape coat, or

is quite the feature of the modistic
hour as an outer covering.
Dainty little lace caps are being in
troduced in London and Paris, for
house wear. They are very popular
because Of their becoming and soft
aning effect.
The white lawn tucked skirt COM
pleted with the white lawn collar, and
the cravat of plaid or of spotted soft
silk. are worn with the tailor-made
iress.
A cape suitable for matron was
carried out in ivory-corded silk, with
cream lace applique, and softened with
,ccordion-plaited frills of chiffon
For ordinary wear the putty-colored
faced cloths, with lace appliques or
embroidery, will be much in vogue for
coats; such garments as these are
generally cut a la Chinoise.

The Novel1st's Opinion Of the Future
 of His People.
 Israel Zangwill, the famous Jewish novelist writing about the future of his race in the Worlds Work, says:
 Today Israel is face to face with a menace of disintegration more formida- ble than the legions of Titus. With out rallying center, geographical or spiritual; without a synhedrion, with out any principle of unity or Of polit- tcal action, without any common stand point about the old book, without the old cement of dictory laws and tradi- tional ceremonies, without even ghetto walls built by his friend the enemy, it is impossible for Israel to persist fur ther, except by miracle of stupidity.
 '4It is a wretched thing for people to be saved only by its prosecutors or its fools. As religion Judaism has still magnificent possibilities, but the time has come when it must be dena- honalized or renationalfzed.'

PROHIBITION IN TEXAS.

Prohibition in Texas is making as- founding progress. It is now five years since an aggressive campaign was begun, which has already closed the saloons in more than half the counties of the great commonwealth The managers have forced the issue to no supreme test in a state election, having once lost by such tactics, but have won ground by capturing one precinct after another. From precincts they have marched upon counties, all in isolated and inconspicuous sections. In this way the prohibitionists have carried much Of Northern Texas. The saloon interests, finally perceiving the steady prohibition encroachment upon their domain, somewhat checked the rate of the prohibition advance in county and particularly city elections, making an effective resistance.
 But the campaign for local option went on, and now the prohibitionists can point to about 150 Texas counties absolutely dry" and half a hundred partially dry. Of all the 243 organ ized and twenty-four unorganized counties the saloon people can still op- crate in scarcely more than half a hundred.
 The enjoyment of immunity from liquor and it's attending social demora- lization has, of course. it's price in a reduction of the volume of taxes avail able for public uses. To account for this deficit, so to speak, becomes a matter of general concern, and there will be many who will still prefer that | the saloon interests be permitted to make it good.
 A striking feature of the present law is that when the prohibitionists are defeated at an election, they may legally hold another in six weeks; whereas if liquor is defeated 1t can not have another whack at prohibition for two years. The court of criminal appeals of Texas has held this law sound. from which decision appeal is now on it's way to Washington.
 Recent legislation ih Texas has strengthened rather than weakened To- cal option safeguards. A person may not even give away liquor in a prohi- bition precinct in Texas, and penalties are heavy for violations of the local option laws. Chicago Standard.

LUXURIOUS ADJUNCT TO THE BEDROOM. dows, one without question, two pre- ferred and three acceptable, especially when third makes cross ventilation possible. By. right of good planning a fourth occurrence" should be a closet door. So says Annie c. Rochfellow in Good Housekeeping, and as to some further details her views are as fol- lows:
 As the bed is the largest piece of fur niture and the most important let the space allowed for it be sufficient to ad- init of its standing free from walls on three sides and unless you wish to aid in the support of an oculist arrange 1t so that the occupant may have at least one unstrained position without the morning light staring him in the face. Few people realize how much more comfort might be secured by little care in regard to the relative position of light and eyes. A small stand at the head of the bed should be large enough to hold candle and matches and small clock. With the bed ar ranged for, try to have the entrance door swing toward 1t and to degree screen 1t when the door is opened.

A Club to War on ..Hiawatha.v

Each member of the club swears that he will not whistle, sing or dance to the tune of the played out melody; that he will pay no visits to young ladies who have the ear en- ervating piece on their piano racks, and he will leave dance hall or thea ter at the first strains of the piece from the orchestra. Whether the mem bers will celebrate their organizatio with a torchlight procession, soiree or carnival has not yet been decided: but, at any rate, they are to meet to effect an organization.

 This city is about to profit from a shift of arrangements that has been made in connection with the Poi cir cult After MT Poli had secured two headline acts for his Hartford and Waterbury theaters for next week it was found advisable to book. the Imro- Fox combination for the Hartford house, thus leaving the two big head line acts booked there unprovided for. MT Poi was in a quandary at first, but with that nerve which distinguish es him he finally decided to add both acts to the two already booked for the Jacques, thus making next weeks bill the most expensive and the most meritorious he has ever put on the lo- cal stage. The Waterbury public, however, will appreciate MT Polls generosity in giving them this grand bill and will endeavor to guarantee him against loss by attending next weeks performances at the Jacques in large numbers.

ToIedo's Executive Shows Firemen
 How to Climb Up a Brass Rod.
 Hand over hand, with his body as rigid as the muscles that maintained it, Mayor Samuel Jones of Toledo, O., moved silently and gracefully up the heavy brass rod leading from the sleGp- ing quarters of the fire boys at engine house No. 3 on Jefferson street from the engine room floor below and only stopped ascending when his head touched the roof, two floors from the ground, says the New York Times. Try as they would, the half dozen healthy firemen could not come nearly up to the mayors record as hand over hand climber.
 These athletic sports occurred the other day at the Central fire station, the time of day en route to affairs of state. There's nothing the mayor en- joys more than some exercise which will test the brawn of man, and it pleases him to be able to lead and to watch them try to follow. The brass rod is the ,freman's stairway coming down-but the mayor made it his go- ing up, something the men rarely at tempted except when .bantered."
 The mayors grip is wonderfully strong, his great, broad hands being we'll muscled and we'll trained. The mayor prefers running or walking downtown to riding; he prefers to sleep in the open air. and hence upon his back porch.
