Arrangements for the Day.

Thanksgiving would not be Thanksgiv-
ing unless celebrated at home" accord
ing to the old-fashioned idea of the holi-
day. and 1t is generally regarded as es-
sentially home day. with a big dinner
as the crcwning feature. However, big
home dinner means a great amount of work
and no inconsiderable expense, and Thanks
giving is of all days the one Bridget
must have a day off to spend at her own
home. Consequently a great many people
have come to the conclusion that they
can be just as thankful over a hotel din
ner, save much trouble and have more
time for all the members of the family to
visit together. In anticipation of the
growth of this idea, the hotels Of Indian
apolis each year have made more elaborate
preparations for their Thanksgiving din
ners, and to-day all are prepared to make
their dinners more attractive and more
complete than ever before.
The Claypool, which celebrates its first
Thanksgiving, has even gone so far as to
arrange for two dinners to-day-one at
the noon hour and one in the evening. By
this the management will cater both to the
people who adhere to the custom of dinner
in the middle of the day and 90 those VINO
dine at o'clock The menus for both
meals will be substantially the same, in
Guiding all the delicacies and substantials
of the season. The menu cards will be at
tractive souvenirs and an orchestra will
dispense music at both hours.
FIRST SPECIAL SPREAD.
Thanksgiving dinner at the Denison will
be the first special spread that hotel has
made since it returned to the American
plan. The dinner will be served at
o'clock. with the accompaniment of music
by an orchestra and handsome cards for
souvenirs. The bill of fare is elaborate.
The English will serve dinner at the same
hour in the American dining room and

ous symptoms appeared An examination
revealed the fact that the bullet had pene-
trated the rectum and the large intestine
and an operation was decided upon. Hart
soon became unconscious. however. and his
condition would not permit of surgical
treatment. AS soon as 1t was discovered
that he could not live his parents were
notified and they were hastily called to his
bedside at the hospital. The young man
made desperate struggle for his life, but
his injuries were too serious to permit re-
covery.
GELS WILL INVESTIGATE
Detectives Asch and Manning believed,
when they took Hart into custody. that he
was guilty Of cracking a safe in the office
OF Borenstein & Co., junk dealers, and they
had evidence which backed up their belief.

The third annual arts and crafts exhibit
of the Sketching Club was opened yes
terday in the Starr piano store. and the
showing is most interesting and instruc-
tive one to those who are interested in
fine handiwork in leather, metal and pot
terry. This years display is a more COM
prehensive and a finer one than either of
its predecessors. The exhibit will continue
for two weeks. and members of the Sketch
ing Club will be in attendance during the
exhibit to explain the display to visitors.
A case Of pottery by Indianapolis work.
ers Is one of the interesting items of the
display. Mrs. w. S. Day and Mrs. ]. H.
Orndorff show some beautiful pieces OF pot
terry of original design. These women have
worked out their own processes. and their
work at their potter's wheels is remark
able in finish and contour. Mrs. Henry III.
Fay. of this city, shows some baskets of
original designs of great beauty. and Miss
Julia Walk and Miss Teller have also very
fine examples of basket weaving on display.
Miss Katharine Conard exhibits two plates
of great merit which have been accepted
by the st. Louis exposition. A very re-
markable exhibit is the case OF clay mini
atures modelled by Miss Helen E. Hibben.
The modelling is of exquisite delicacy, but
full of vigor and flowing grace.
ART COVER DESIGNS.
Among the important portions of the
exhibit Is case OF hand-bound and hand
decorated books. The cover designs are
harmonious with the book contents, and
the volumes are representative of the high
est point attained in book production.
Among the exhibitors in this line are Otto
Zahn. Minnie s. Pratt, Miss Lahey, of
Brooklyn: Ralph Randolph Adams, of
Zahnsdorf; Miss Emily Preston and Miss
Marott, Of Philadelphia, pupils of Cobsden-

and her pupil, Peter Verburgh; Miss Ster-
ling, of Syracuse, and Miss McCulloch, of
New York. A number of these beautiful
books will be included in the annual ex-
hibit of the Scribner house later in the
year. One of the particularly interesting
volumes is the Book About Doctors" a
very amusing and entertaining book, beau
tifully bound and extra-illustrated.

table covers. centerpieces and doilies in the
blue and white, which is their characteris-
tic color scheme. end each piece is marked
with the letter u within wheel. The blue
embroideries white linen are handsome
things, but even more attractive the
table covers in cross stitch with such old
fashioned designs as 1.-THE Stag at the
Rosebush'' and 1.-The Park patterns
Quaintest of all, however, is the Mid

year for those ever-enjoyable family reunions.
Those happy gatherings which bring together,
after weeks of peasurable anticipatons, the loved
ones for ia Thanksgiving Day at the old home"
In more than one-half million of the happiest
homes in America the pleasurable duties of the
housewives in decorating and arranging the home
for the invited guests, in preparing the ever
memorable Thanksgiving Dinner" and in
arranging plans for the entertainment and amuse-
ment of both young and old, have been made
materially lighter and easier to perform by the
welcome assistance which has been received from
their constant visitor, THE LADIES WORLD.
1t is practical, wholesome, thorough
ly helpful and entertaining, that it appeals to
women who are interested in the fine art of home
making-women whose home and family come first
In fact, it occupies leading position among
the opponents of modern science, and with those
who desire to keep abreast of the improvements
that are being made in the realm of housekeeping.
