at Washington park losing rather than
a profitable venture. 1t made for the
city administration many enemies as
well as many friends The sporting fra
ternity of the city have been loud In their
denunciations of the mayor and the po-
lice force; the reform element have
mixed their praise with some criticisms
because the reform was not more thor
ough.
Playing politics" has been the cry
of that portion of the public, and 1t Is no
small portion at that. which desires to
risk their money on horse race. They
have charged the mayor with putting .
stop to book-making, with closing the
pool rooms. purely for its effect in vote
making. Even portion Of the reform
element were inclined to the same be-
lief and refused to credit the city author
tiles with making the fight as effective
as it might be. Mayor Harrison virtual
" answers both of these elements in an
article recently printed in the Saturday
Evening Post, In which he condemns
race betting az moral curse equal in its
deteriorating influence to the Louisiana
lottery. In this article he says:
"Give this virus an opportunity to In
oculate all classes OF a country, and you
have allowed blow to be struck directly
at the source of a nations prosperity"
Judging from the tone of the mayors
article it is safe to prophecy continu-
ance of the fight against book-makins
In Chicago.

sons and daughters rose In condemns
ton against the shutting OF Of personal
privileges When the decree went forth
that there should be no betting, no book
making at Washington Park on Derby
day, members Of the Washington Park
club, men Of influence and standing in
the city, moved every power they knew
of to either evade the decree or have 1t
rescinded, but without effect. From the
ghetto to the boulevards the ppotesta-
lions against it arose. but the mayor had
formed his own ideas OF what was best
for the city, and with the law on INSIDE
he stopped this form Of gambling, or at
least came as near to that as has been
done in Chicago for many day.
Back of the MAYOR In this fight have
stood the men who must employ other
men in positions of trust; the men who
must employ OTHER men to handle their
money Experience had taught them
the force of the mayors argument that,
Give this virus an opportunity to inoc-
ulate all classes Of country, and You
have allowed a blow to be struck at the
source of q nations prosperity" They
had seen their trusted men swallowed up
and pulled down to ruin by the octopus

ling. and Of race track gambling in par

they solicited the patronage OF the
stenographers. the clerks, and the fac
tory girls Stories Of easy winnings
were poured into the ears Of attentive
listeners that brought the dollars from
the feminine pockets in flood.
Race goers estimate that not less than
10000 Chicago women are patrons OF the
bookmakers. When given opportunity
they would wager close to $100,00O on .
single Derby day. OF course, in the end
at least, the great, great majority lose.
What is. the ultimate result Of this
feminine craze for race betting? Go
into almost any part Of the city, and
you can find girls and women with
ruined regulations who can trace theif
downfall to the race track. Their desire
to not only recoup losses, but to pro-
vide the means for future bets have sent
them to the gutter socially, and they in
time become outcasts to populate the
slums. There are exceptions, to be sure.
There are women who have won, but
winning makes of them habitual devo-
tees and attendants Of the tracks, with
no interest in life other than that found
in the dope book"

FASHIONS. LATEST DICTATES
The Proper Styles in Skirts, Footwear
and Millinery for the Sum-
mer Season.

Lace as petticoat trimming still holds
it's popularity. But the pinked rufie,
headed by an o!d-fashioned ruch:ng, is
the best thing that can be worn under
q full round skirt. Four and five ruffles
are employed to make the skirt as frou
frou as possible.
Dancing skirts grow shorter and short
er. In fact, one was sent to Newport
recently which wilb not come below the
ankles Of the pretty dancer. Its material
is grenadine and its color an onion white.
The figures are soft green and the
trimmings are the color of rose.
Some of the new low shoes have eye
lets worked in heavy silk instead of be-
ing metal bound. The favorite feathers
are patent leather and black Russia for
walking shoes. with tan Russia for coll
ored shoes. The high Cuban heel rules.
It is well placed at the back of the shoe,
and is not half as trying as the absurd
French heel. The widest of silk ties are
affected. Inch-wide ribbons are used in
place of the usual lace.
A favorite millinery shape for shirt
waist wear is still the big circular hat,
somewhat on the exaggerated sailor
shape, with fiat brim and round crown
Of average height. For wear with the
shirt waist suit Of taffeta hat of this
shape in fine white chip braid, with
broad ruche or box plating Of taffeta
to match the gown around the crown, il
distinctly modish. Indeed, no matter
what the dress, a plated ruche of its
fabric makes the smartest adornment
just now for the shirt waist hat.
Foulard silks are not SO fashionable
as they were last year, but there are
many smart designs in checks, which.
somehow, never go out of fashion, no
matter how tremendously popular they
become. AS rule, too much popularity
is the death Of any fashion. There are
coats and skirts in the shepherds plaid,
with which are worn the smartest Of
white lace waists or lace and muslin
combined. These waists oftentimes
cost double what the entire costume was
purchased for. as the expense of separ-
ate waists Of the elaborate order has
reached most appalling height.
Coat and skirt costumes of shantung
are perhaps the most modish item of this
seasons wardrobe, and certainly there
Is no material possessing so many adj
mirable qualities It is delightfully."-
cool and light; 1t sheds the dust and will
Withstand frequent cleaning. In the
natural and biscuit shades this material
is especially well liked, though the deli
cate tints are charming. White shan
tung is novelty this season, although
its high price will not permit Its being
widely used. For many reasons. how
ever, 1t is not adapted to general wear
as the more available natural and other
tints.
