Can anybody tell what is the matter
with Jack Donnely? From all ac-
counts he has been afflicted of late with
that malady known among pugs as
cold feet" He was matched several
weeks ago to fight jerry Mccarthy at
Pocateilo on the l6th--next Monday
night Both fighters trained for the
bout and the forfelts We're up. Donnel-
~ agreed to a side bet OF $500 or $500
and was to fight Jerry at 145 pounds,
on the afternoon OF the contest. The
arrangements We're all completed and
il was thought that nothing stood in
the way OF the match but n day or
two ago the surprising news was re-
ceived here that Donnelly had departed
for lie Grand, ore, and that he was
matched with some unknown there
OF course, as soon as the news reached
the city, Jerry stopped hard training
and the bout was postponed, The prob
abilities are that the two win not come
together. Doubtless Donnelly remem-
bers what Jerry did TO him in their
fight here about two years ago.

She Has a Valet

Miss Norma Munro, chiefly klown
to fame as the financial hacker of Mrs.
Osborne's Playhouse, and who has just
come back from Europe, is not the only
American woman by amy manner OF
means to have a man servant Hers, 1t
is said, scendaliz / passengers of the
Oceanic but thcy must have been a
squeamish Let, for nothing could be
more unObtrusive than this same man
who has been years with the Munro
family.
But portion of New York society
was much interested on the return here
for a visit of a native New York
woman now living in Paris, who
brought with her a valet perfect enough
to receive the approval of Dickie Davis
himself. Her valet was about twenty
years OF age, and as the woman goes
in for as much masculinity of attire as
is compatible with skirts, his duties
for her were almost similar to those for
a man. The woman with her servant
put up at the waldorf, and the friends
who knew her we'll became accustom-
ed to the man dropping in when q
maid might have been in evidence. The
woman was never tired Of singing his
praises, for he not only attended to
his duties, she declared, but was far
less exacting than a maid.
That some persons thought the stu
alton a trihe peculiar did not trouble
her in the least, and the man is still in
her employ in Paris.

The Stylish Wedding Gown,

Wedding gowns and trousseaux are
the all-absorbing clothes topic OF the
moment, for Easter brides to be have
now little time left to decide what the
briday party shall wear. Indeed most
OF these details have been settled for
weeks. The white satin wedding gown
is still considered the smartest that
can be worn. but there are other ma
terials quite permissible. In fact, for
late spring and early summer weddings
there is a great partiality for lace
gowns OF gowns Of thin material, like
chiffon or net, with lace. An entire
gown of point lace is, as may readily
be understood, extremely beautiful and
very costly, but it should be made as
simply as possible.
No matter what the material of the
gown the princess effect is the best
design to choose If the lace is in deep
hounces they can be mounted on net,
but above the hounces all lace must be
used and then with the waist of lace
and the line at the waist unbroken by a
helt, the effect is still princess. A satin
or silk princess gown with only the
front of the waist draped is always
most becoming and smart and the lace
OF the collar and undersleeves can be

made separate in guimpe style, so that
if desired the gown itself can be worn
at other times for a dinner or dance.
Another economical fashion consists in
having a long satin train to wear with
the lace gown attached at the shoulder,
hut made like a court train so that it
can be easily removed and the lace
gown left complete. A long train is a
necessity for wedding gown, for a
short skirt looks painfully ungraceful,
and even an exaggerated length is bet

with "a graf deal of lace or embroidery,
