PARIS, April =, 19o4.
The Partisan sartorial artists are holding
what they call collective" which is
collected exhibit of toilets designed espe-
cially for the worlds fair in st. Louis. The
day an open sesame in the form of a neat
little card of invitation arrived by post
found me a delighted visitor at the salon.
After cursory glance among the "cre-
ations' one was lost in admiration of the
exquisite work, beauty of coloring and
perfection of embroidery displayed in each
of the toilets. A more thorough inspection
showed that there has been no revolution
airy movement in modes during the past
year. The lines are the same, and it is
principally in the introduction of new ma
terials. trimming developments and in the
shape of the skirt that the "irstness' OF

sleeves are the same, the former with low

Two Stylish Gowns.

Two Stylish Gowns.
But, to return to gowns, two charming
spring promenade toilets which await time
and place to blossom forth are designed as
follows: One, biscuit voile pped with
satin. has down each front of the plated
skirt little tabs, through which is drawn a
silk cord of the same shade finished by a
tassel at the end. The bodice is strung in
like manner with cord and has cape en-
placements of voile over the bouffant
sleeves. brown chiffon choker and tie
form the neck treatment
The other gown is of shot gray chine
silk. and en- passant let me say that one
might just as well talk of the deluge as of
Ioulard at present, so entirely has this silk
been superseded by other weaves Well,
this dainty creation has it's three-tiered
skirt formed of English embroidered
founces, the embroidery running breteIle
fashion over the waist. The very elaborate
sleeves, hounced at the top, gather into a
wide band of embroidery, from which hangs
the too often seen lingerie lace ruffie.
An innovation over here is the elastic cor
set of woven silk with not particle of
Whalebone in it's makeup. This affair fits
the form like a glove and is ideal to wear
under the frocks of today. Quite new de-
parture is seen in the spring lingerie, or,
rather, in an eccentric branch of it-black

Fichus and Scarfs.
The straight, old fashioned scarf of rare
lace or of embroidered muslin in a variety
of colors has taken the place of the winter
stole. The smart spring suits have little
shawl-shaped paletots reaching hardly to
the elbow made of the frock material and
trimmed in harmony with the dress garni-
lures. They are very fetching and useful
wraps, particularly as this delightful spring
has been lingering rather longer than usual
In the lap of winter.
The uppermost question of the day is
headgear The milliners efforts this sea-
son are certainly crowned with triumphal
success, and there is a hat for every type
of face. Lace will play an important role
In millinery, while flowers and straw en-
broidery are the chief decorations. Peach
color Is adopted in straw of two tones on
dyed to match. The new delft blue is a
favorite shade, and the delicate nuances
of lavender are combined with soft petal
rose. This seasons close fitting hats have
br1ms projecting in front and rather low
crowns. These hats to be worn properly are
not tilted, but placed squarely on the head.
Straw roses and kind of erin mousseline
floral trimmings are effective, but promise to
be copied in the small shops. The chapeau
de style and picture hats have increased
in size, and all the skill of the Partisan
modiste is brought into play in the combina-
tons of color and arrangements of flowers
on these classical chapeaus. 1 noticed

100, 900 ACRES
TO Be RECLAIMED

WENATCHEE, Wash, May t.
Representatives Jones has received
advice from F. II. Newell, chief of
the reclamation service, that the
government is contemplating an ex-
tensive reclamation project in this
section. The Palouse country is one
of the most fertile in the west, and
there are 100000 acres of this land
near Pasco that only requires irri-
cation to convert 1t into a choice
agricultural tract. 1t is understood
that 1t is the intention of the depart
ment to concentrates the irrigation
investigation upon this project dur
ing the summer.
The farmers of this district are
very enthusiastic over the prospect
of government irrigation, and it is
generally agreed that the Palouse
country offers the most promising
reclamation scheme of the north
west.
II the investigation made during
the next few months prove satisfac-
tory, the secretary Of the interior
will set aside sufficient money from
the reclamation funds to construct
the reservoir and canals. The es-
timated cost of the reclamation is
$25 per acre. 1t is figured that the
land will be worth at least four times
the cost of retaining 1t.

Some parts of Manhattan and Brook

The police department Is paying
little or no attention to those gangs

the few cases, In which some of the
leaders of the hoodlums were arrest

charges Her only grievance seeming
to be that, though she scratches with

UNbROKEN
(Scripps News Association


SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,. May 18.-On
the surface of the republican situa-
ton here this morning IT did not look
any more probable that a nomination
for governor would be made at the
state convention this afternoon than
at any time last week.
Several dark horses are mentioned,
including Federal Judge Grosscup,
Graeme Stewart, the late candidate
for mayor of Chicago, and Congress-
man Reeves.
Lowden and Deneen delegates from
Chicago are as far apart as Genesis
is from Revelations.
A great many Of the delegates,
weary of a deadlock, are liable to
vote anyway to settle affairs. Sena-
tor Hopkins Is of the opinion the
convention will not last much longer.
The twenty-fifth ballot will be taken
shortly after g o'clock.
Governor Yates today created a
sensation by confirming the story
printed In a local paper that he had
been approached" in the interest of
the congressional delegation"
meaning Cannon, Hopkins and Gull
lom, with an offer of the Mexican
ministership at salary of $4,000
a year If he would throw the nominal
ton to Lowden.
Both Cannon and Hopkins deny
that the alleged meeting occurred.
Cannon called the convention to
order at 2 o'clock. Despite a down.
pour OF rain a big crowd was pres
ent. The twenty-fifth ballot shows
no difference over it's predecessor
and no outward sign of break.
On the twenty-sixth ballot Cannon
got one vote, Yates lost five and
Lowden lost five. The Yates men
are holding a conference.
