tage of the woman OF limited means who
had found in the separate waist way of
making limited wardrobe appear to
best advantage.
''The separate waist is by no means
out" he replied, NOR do imagine that
it soon will be. We have never carried
so large and varied stock Of these gar
ments as we have this winter, nor have
they ever been more elaborate"
And then as proof of his assertions he
proceeded to display for my benefit a
seemingly countless number of those in
his stock. First he showed me filmy
structure of chiffon which forms the
foundation on which much beautiful
elaboration is built, by transparent lace
insertions or incrustations, on which
graduated horizontal tucks Of palest
mauve sole de chine, which entirely
compose it, sleeve and all, are hem
stitched on to the cream chiffon by large
lace stitches in white linen thread. 1t
is both pretty and dainty conceit. The
yoke is applied, and composed of bands
and wee gaugings in line treatment,
connected by fine lace stitchings, and
here and there enriched by mauve
glace motif inserted. The cuff is also
of this up-to-date lace work, and cut
into a cup-like point to hold the full
ness of the tucked sleeve. Bretelles of
fine ecru lace complete charmingly an
already charming CONNECTION.

1t was left for Paris, however, to name
the hours at which the two styles should
be worn. The round veil is considered
the appropriate one for afternoon wear.
For this chiffon is the approved mate
rial, and to arrange it satisfactorily it
should be run on thread, and then
fixed around the brim of the hat in the
manner shown, taking care that it is of
sufficient length to fall quite free and
away from the face.
According to Paris we should not

Of the City.

Seattle, March 12.-The grand jury
has voted to indict Thomas J. Humes,
mayor of Seattle, JCAn Sullivan, chief
CT police and Walter S. Fulton, ex-
prosecuting attorney of King county.
The charge against each is said to
be %malfeasance in office, based upon
the opinion of the grand jurymen
that they failed and neglected to en-
force the ordinances of the city and
the laws of the state in regard to
gambling and other illegal acts. In
dictments of lesser Importance were
voted against six persons on a charge
OF swindling and similar complaints.
They are said to include %proprietors
of certain ncern which sell dia-
monds on monthly payments.
Mayor Humes in discussing the in
dictment said: "The grand jury
should now indict every man that vot-
ed for me l told them how 1 would
run the town and l have done just as
l promised"

Anaconda, March 12.-The coal.
chutes at the B., A. & P. railway
tracks west of Anaconda caught fire
at an early hour this morning and
burned to the ground, together with
five cars. The loss is estimated at
several thousand dollars. The fire
is supposed to have started from a
spark from one of the engines near by,
and, aggravated by the high wind
blowing at the time, it spread with
great rapidity. Three cars along the
track soon caught fire and burned be-
fore they could be drawn out of dan
ger. One of them was a caboose,
n was loaded with wood and one
was an empty.
The fire department was there on
time, but there was some difficulty in
securing a sufficient play of water. the
the water was got on the fire it had
gained such Roadway that nothing
could be done. A switch engine pull
ed the cars along the siding out Of
the way, while the big coal chutes
were allowed to burn.
On top of the t%restle, 60 feet from
the ground, were two cars loaded with
coal. These stood half an hour on
the burning scantlings and finally
caught fire. In a few seconds the
whole mass came tumbling down
with a terrific crash, scattering burn
ing coal and wood in every direction.
After the chutes had burned there
was no danger and the fire was soon
under control.
