NO JURY
TRIAL FOR

trial on the question OF his sanity Pal
mer is at the Butler Hospital for the In
sane having been committed 10 that in
stitution Just after he was acquitted OF
the murder OF his wife. Addie NJ Palmer
because OF insanity In 1899. Some weeks
ago his council petitioned for writ OF
habeas corpus on the ground that he Is
lie or 10 himself and therefore should be
no longer restrained OF his liberty.
The appellate court about two weeks
ago heard arguments OF counsel Tor Pal
mer and the attorney general on questions
OF Jury trial and assignment OF the Pc
tition for hearing. Tho case was as
signed 10 October II and the matter OF a
Jury trial was reserved.
Judge Tillinghast was handed down the
decision of the court denying jury trial
and the important part OF the opinion Is
as follows:
'"rhe petitioner shows no cause why the
court should not hear and determine the
question raised, and we find nothing in
the facts submitted which makes it nee
essary or proper 10 direct an Issue TO
jury touching the necessity for the fur
thor restraint OF the petitioner. In other
words, nothing appears which moves the
court to exercise the discretion conferred
upon IL I'm such cases. and hence the pro-
cedure should follow the ordinary course
in habeas corpus cases.
I'VE think the statute In question con-
templates the existence OF some special
cause as ground for n jury trial in cases
OF this sort. and that in the absence OF
any such cause the ordinary course will
be pursued
''The prayer of the petitioner that the
case may be submitted to a jury is there-
fore denied"

Pale ecru linen, embroidered in a con-
ventional design with pale blue wool

being lined with cream silk
Crowns Large or Small.
The crowns this season are either very
large or the exact reverse. Those on the
large hats that are high are generally
combined with slOping down of the brim
at the back, the crown being higher be-
hind than in front. and Of oval form.
This is very often the style Of crown

tened at the left and curls over the

When the hat is composed entirely Of

Mother of Pearl TInts.
The mother of pearl combination Of
ttnts is popular this season, the shades
being lighter than ever before used for
hats.
The same light tints reappear in the
small gauze roses and accordion pleated
ribbons used for trimming.
Sometimes two or more shades of a sin
gle light color are used. A dressy hat
for instance. could be made Of white tulle
coyered with rows Of lavender silk net
(narrow ribbon net being more effective),

Soft purple satin ribbon is twisted
around the crown, the two ends carried

of white heather is fastened in the bow.
Straw Flower Trimming
A new Partisan novelty this season Is
the straw flower trimming. Better eff
fects are obtained by using mixed chip
braid turned around on itself to form
globular roses than by composing them
Of petals stamped out in straw.
They are neither stiff nor artificial
looking, roses being the flower most
suitable for this work.
A few of the more elaborate toques
are entirely carried out in straw, trim

Straw embroidery appears on net in
dark colors, generally peacock blends.
Tartan combinations are also one Of the
novelties of the season.

The fact that tailormade gowns, both
plain and fancy, are being more used
this spring than for several past sea-
sons is undoubtedly due to the fact that
this is an exposition year, and in con-
sequence a great many women will
want suitable clothes to wear to the
st. Louis fair. The most serviceable
gown for this purpose is a tailor made
suit with a smart short jacket and in
step-length skirt, with which white
shirt waists or fancy blouses of silk
or lace may be worn.
The skirt may be plated, or plain, or
trimmed with braid, or buttons, and
the coat should correspond, but it may
be more fancifully ornamented A
bright contrasting color is frequently
used on black or gray suits for the
collar and cuffs, or on collarless coats
it is inset around the neck in some
odd design, and is then braided with
black, white, gold or silver cord. The
fancier tailor -mades consist generally
of skirt and bodice instead of a skirt

THE LAND OF PAPER.

The Japanese use paper at every mo-
ment. The string with which a deft-
handed darling of the gods does up the
articles you buy is made of paper The
handkerchief (thrown away after use) is
paper, the partitions dividing the houses
are paper, and the pane through which an
indiscreet eye looks at you is paper! The
pane is certainly wanting in transparency,
but there is a simple remedy. One finger
Is passed through the paper-that is all!
Afterward a small piece is stuck on the
opening with a grain of rice. The mems

his burden. singing cadence, through the

IT HE old saying about fashions and
Il history repeating themselves was
time - i0N0-i'
Not to be outdone by the old-time
shirts and the girdles of 1880 days. which
nave been revived, the spring millinery
this season is repeating many of the old
fashions of few years back.
Ihe toque, which really can never be
said to have quite left u.s. as it has al
ways been most popular, is now all the
rage.
The Torpedo Toque
Appropriately called the Torpedo, ow-
ing to present warlike conditions in the
East, this stylish little hat varies
only slightly from the original toque Of
long ago. The sides bulge out much
further and they are wider than the dis
tance from front to back.
Another becoming shape in this styIe
is the tricorner, which is made Of loose
braid with scaloped brim that when
turned from a three -cornered shape loses
its severity Of outline.
Another torpedo toque is of pleated
straw braid, the brim being formed by
sewing the rows from edge to edge.
OF Dark Green Chip Braid.
A pretty combination is shown by hav-
ing the crown Of chip braid a dark green
while the brim is blue The straw in each
case is twisted around itself into little
knobs sewn together on net founda-
ton.
1t Is trimmed with two uncurled. ostrich
tips fastened on the brim.
Another striking effect is attained by
a green crown and a brim chiefly blue
with manor green and yellow braids in
terlaced into the border.
The only trimming is band of twisted
blue velvet ribbon into which is inserted
a pair of palettes, whose green and
blue plumage is gunmed on in stripes.
The New French Sailor.
The new French sailor is another re
vised style, and promises to be popular
one.
The sailor has returned this time with
broader brim and lower crown than
formerly, and is a very much betrimmed
affair.
The shape itself provides the great por-
tion of the decoration.
Many are covered with embroidered lin
en-, lined with silk and bordered with
straw braids.

cloths, mohair, canvas or silk. They
may be made with short skirts, but
usually the skirts are of full length,

smart gown on this order is shown
by the accompanying illustration.

rough spots dotting it here and there,

arms and in front, with narrow blue
silk Hercules braid, like that on the
skirt, which is embroidered through the
center with large white silk French
knots. The stock and chemisette are of
white chiffon and the hat is of dark
blue straw, trimmed with ostrich
feathers.
