over the hips allows the skirt to fall in

is a very useful skirt to wear in the
morning with shirt waists. One clever
tailor claims he has invented a skirt

waist becomes an almost unacknowI-

There is a strong tendency to place the
sleeve fullness above the elbow, and
the bridge whist player viii certainly
welcome this innovation, as she now
loops the hanging draperies up on the
sleeve with small gold safety pins.
Pink is a popular shade over here,
and all the poppy tones Of red are to
be used for summer gowns, both in lin
ems and wool but in silk this bright
shade is less offensive. An attractive
frock is made of a pinky red foulard
silk lowered with a scroll of white and
trimmed with narrow black velvet rib
bon gathered on in lines above motifs
of cream colored lace. Taffeta silk
will be used as a trimming on all the
smart gowns and wraps, and in the
new taffetas there is a revival of all
the old world colors, including an old
rose and a real lavender shade. A
dainty fashion of using this silk as q
trimming is in inhnitesimal ruches and

the corselet shape with buttonholed

dresses we are coming back to real
tailor lines, and the tight fitting coat
two or three inches below the waist
line is to be a rival of the new short
jacket, which is full and hangs just to
the waist, with a tiny vest of suede or
of some contrasting fabric. This coat
may only be successfully worn by tall,
graceful women. The very best cou-
turieres are insistent in their introduce
ton of a semihtting coat with a little
basque. This style will always be ex-
elusive, as the small tailor is not capa-
Bile of achieving the mysteriously clever
cut which gives the smart little pinched
in appearance at the waist beneath the
arms, together with a fit that. while
defining the figure perfectly, is easy
and devoid Of labored effort after lost
lines. American taste in the tailor
gown rather runs to the vogue Of the
Austrian sartorial artists, who adore
severe lines, while French taste for the
moment is disposed to feminine modes.

N ARTS, March 12.-Here in Paris
one no longer apologies for
speaking of the weather. al
though long ago a person was
voted a bore who made this sub
ject an item of conversation. For the
last week war and weather have been
the only events discussed, and speak
ing of the war reminds me of the
sleeping cat" on the sacred bridge of
NiklSo, which is supposed to wink it's
eye before a rainstorm. If that Japa-
nese animal happened to be visiting
now in this city he would have busy
time blinking. But Sunday was a love-
y day, and the Avenue du Bots de Bou-
logne was black with promenaders aft
er the church services. It was the first
fine Sunday we have had of late, and
everybody seemed anxious > linger in
the sunshine to enjoy the unusual
warmth and brightness in the air. In
the throng of pedestrians were many
smart women wearing their most stun
ming costumes. and the new hats and
wells were the salient features in the
direction of originality in these hand
some toilets.
However tardy one may be in select
ing a new seasons gown, it is impera-
tive that the hat be changed imme-
diately the first days of spring are her
aided. The present moment is an &C
tive one in che modistic world, whose
latest whim in millinery is the long
veil Although this may seem a trifie,
1T is the type of one of Dame Fashions
daintiest cnnceits. This graceful bit of
lace or net, like many other accessories
OF feminine grace, is not modern Gre
alton, but possesses in a marked degree
The charm of antiquity. Indeed, wells
have been a part of feminine adorn-
ment since the earliest days of civil
hzation.
II you win look at any old fashion
plate of the Victorian era you will see
lace bordered wells falling loosely from
large. shady mushroom hats. This
style is likely in a modified form to be
the vogue, and long chenille, spotted
net and black and white tulle wells
edged with lace will fall quite loosely
and grace fully from the brim of the
picturesque spring hat to madame or
mademoiselle's pretty shoulders. These
wells are especially shaped to curve up
behind the hat where they tie in a bow
with long lace ends. The most stun
ming specimens of net have lace motifs
worked in exquisitely delicate designs
Parisiehnes possess the happy knack of
adjusting the veil, and woe betide the
bonner of these airy trifes unless she
knows how to copy them in their fas-
cinating manner of twisting the length
OF lace or gauze around a hat
OF course an individual style is best
but for those who would rather follow
in the footsteps of the many the shops
are displaying wells already shaped.
They are gathered along the brim and
fashioned to fit either large or small
hats. Bows and draperies on some of
the modes are made up for the wearer
to fasten with an invisible hook. There
is now conscious modishness about
the wearers of these poke hats, you
might call them, with their long wells.

after awhile, when the present genera

their grandmothers' headgear, this
conseiousness will disappear. 1t strikes

simple and easy to achieve but it's a
simplicity which only an artist can ere
ate with satisfactory results. The
tOque made of currants and their leaves
draped with lace is the Riviera novelty
of the season.
The feminine sartorial world is turn
ing its attention at present more to the
tailor made suit than to any other part
of the wardrobe. This servicea BILE
dress is a necessity for every season of
the year, but is more especially needed
in the spring and autumn when the ex-

not the real thing. for as long as she is

But, to come back to millinery, the
really dressy hats are made of soft,

often a combination of all three. They

TEACHERS IN SESSION.
An Instructive Programme Carried
Out at Leavenworth.

Leavenworth, Kan, April IA large
number of teachers from northeastern
Kansas are In this city today in an
nual session They were entertained
last night by a lecture on Tale of Two
Cities by Miss Ida Bentley, of New
York City
H. L. Miller of Topeka, president of
the association, addressed the meeting
at some length on a topic of vital in
terest to teachers and to parents He
devoted considerable of his attention
to the management of the incorrigibIe
boy. pleaded for strict discipline in all
school matters and pointed out the
fact that the school is in itself a model
community in which the character of
the future citizen is nodded. The much
used question, SO often vigorously COM
bated. as to the enforced submission of
the pupils was really the main topic of
his talk He went so far as to intf-
mate that the rod would not be a bad
thing and felt that in infiicting this
corporal punishment on obstreperous
lads he did them a real kindness inso-
far as he nodded Wilfullness and indis-
position into submission and prepared
the temperament of the youth for the
world which is so liable to break the
spirit OF the lad who comes into it
with the purpose of rule and ruin"
The programme carried out by the
convention today follows:

POLICE COURT NOTES.

Bedia Manson, the negro woman tried
for insanity and discharged in probate
court Tuesday, was again placed in the
county jail today. The woman became
violent. and when she was brought over
from North Topeka in the patrol wagon
it was necessary to tie her up with
ropes and a blanket She raved and
spit on the officers who handled her.
When she was picked up by the police
earlier in the week she was raving
about religion and the b street
church. The officers filed complaint
against her. but when she was tried on
the insanity charge in probate court a
dozen or mole witnesses testified that
she was of sound mind.
John Kushara. a Parkdale youth 10
years of age, was fined IS and costs in
police court this morning for threaten
ing to stab a neighbor. Mrs McCor-

drawn a knife ON the woman, but on
her husband, whom she had called He
said that Mrs. Mccormick started the
trouble by knocking him IF his bicycle
with a broom and calling him and his
parents vile names. After the boy had
paid his fine last evening he asked for
his pocket knife, which was taken away
from him at the time of the arrest
Chief AIcCollum refused TO give back
the knife, on the grounds that it was a.
deadly weapon. 50 the boy is out both

The effect OF the note 10 to perma-
nently record the hearty acceptance.
in principle, by all the powers nd
dressed, OF this governments sugges-
tion.
The fixing of the date for this assem-
bly, is g. subject for further discussion
as Russia in her acceptance inserted
the condition that the conference do
not convene until her war with Japan
has en6ed. In the reply Of Japan the
State Department finds a reasonable
provision that this conference. in the
event that it should be called in the
lifetime of the present war. shall not
on its findings affect this conflict. So
reasonable does this suggestion appear
to several neutral powers that it is
thought possible it may yet commend
itself to all the powers, including Rus
Sia.
