the Paris models have had the diverse
undersleeves so extended that the real
oversleeve formed little more than an
epaulet. However. while we wear
loose bodices and sack boleros, the
sleeve of different color or material

The small black coats. inlet with me-

these will be worn over black and
white skirts as well as with black ones
of every description.

Hats For Summer.
A great variety of fancy straw hats
are to be seen this season. and not so
many chiffon as heretofore. When
these chiffon hats are used. they are
exclusively for dressy occasions and
are made of tiny rulings and shir-
rings mixed in with straw or satin
braid.
All the hat shapes are larger than
ever and IL anything fiatter. The
trimmings are put on in fat fashion.

Cardinal Satoli is quoted as saying:
Although his mind is perfectly clear
and wonderfully vigorous, the pom tiff's
outward evidence of strength is decep-
tive, and is in reality due TO the unrc-
hitting use of powerful stimulants,
chiefly caffeine; indeed, the constant
administration of stimulants practically
sustains his strength. This is due in
part to the sensitiveness of the holy
fathers nerves, which almost instan thy
respond to artificial stimulants, and at
the same time Immediately collapse

New Regulations Governing The AIiena-

Washington, July 1O.-Commissioner

leasing by Indians of lands allotted to
them by congress. Charges of land
grabbing by INSCRIPTIONS persons in
these lanes have reached the interior
department, principally from the Creek
nation.
The new regulations will go into
effect as soon as they are approved by
Secretary Hitchcock, who is out of the
city Acting Secretary Ryan said that
in his opinion the changes made by the
commissioner would preclude the pos
sibility of fraud on large scale, al
though they might not altogether
protect the Indians from disposing of
their lands for less than their real
value. 1t is said that the regulations
will provide for the certihcation of
values by Il properly constituted board,
