scarcely ever is she seen without some
thing Of the hand-painted kind.
This girl recently paid a trip to town
and this is what she bought: One small
cream silk fan mounted on white
enamel, with no decorations OF any
kind. Then she bought a large cream
colorcd parasol, also perfectly plain. To
this she added white cream silk So
cicty bodice cut on blouse lines. And,
finally. she purchased enough cream
silk for dress skirt. These goods,
which were to be all painted by hand,
she shipped to her home in Newport.
Later the society columns will record
her wonderful gown and will declare it
an artistic ideal.
Nor must the hat be forgotten, for
no costume is complete without the hat
this year. The hat which went with
this cream colored gown was a hand
painted Milan straw, with the under
side of the brim dream in roses.
And there We're other articles neces-
sary for the girl who is hand decorated.
To Be All Hand Painted.
II you want to be a hand-painted
summer girl there are many things you
must have. And among them are these:
You must have a gown with enough

gown. And. with the slippers, there
must go pair OF hand-painted stock-
ings. And such stockings-al cupids
and angels and flying streamers Of
ribbon.
The fan Is a necessity, and its only
rule is that 1t shall be tiny. while the
sticks. the covering and the ribbon
streamers that fly from 1t may all be
painted.
And you will want painted straw
hat. This is the easiest of all to OBJ
tain, for any girl with a spark of inge-
nuity and a paint brush can take her
old white chip and tint it; while If 1t
be handsome straw of the expensive
sort she can put few touches upon 1T
to bring out the beauty of the straw
and furnish the hand painted note.
Little Additional Touches.
In addition to these things the ambi-
tious girl can, at small expense, paint
herself a stock, girdle, an adjustable
lace yoke for the neck and another one
for the skirt, and she can have all the
parasols she wants. When 1t comes to
lace fichus and fichus of null and to
matter of hand-painted lace and hand
painted pocket handkerchiefs of white
silk to tuck in the front of the gown,
she can make them for herself. And
she can have sashes and neck chous
with painted ends and wonderful scarfs
for the hat which give it a very dressy
note.
The fad of the hand-painted girl.
while an elegant one, is not necessarily
a costly one; for, like many another
passing vogue, it depends more upon
willingness and ingenuity and personal
taste than upon actual dollars and
cents.
"One rule" says q French dress
maker, must be observedi Don't at
tempt to carry out the colors in pastel
tones. This is old fashioned. The up
to-date hand-painted girl is vivid with
lilacs in their purplest tones. She Is
gorgeous in wistaria blue as plum ana
ripe with deepest green foliage. She Is
The San Francisco call., 1904-07-10
BY AUGUSTA PRESCOTT.


On HE girl with box of colors reigns
queen Of the summer, for it is the
season Of the hand-painted girl.
i She who can paint well has at her
finger tips the means Of making herself
wonderfully smart. while she who
paints a little can still manage to paint
just enough 10 be in fashion.
Never have hand-painted fabrics been
so much the vogue. There are hand
painted articles Of all kinds. from the
tiny fans to the fiaring Darasols, and
there are hand-uainted fabrics Of every
weight, from the hand-Dainted broad
cloth gown TO the light hand-painted
null.
To paint a dress fabric we'll is no
easy task. but the girl Of the summer
goes at it with good American pluck,
and for her it may be said that she
succeeds remarkably well, for, with true
American talent. she chooses her colors
properly and carries them out artis-
tically.
There are hend-9ainted gowns, de-
Ncious hand-painted chiffons, exquisite
laces with hand-painted touch, gorge
Gus satins and lightweight velvets
which are fine enough to be cIassed as
works Of art-and all hand decorated.
Indeed, no less an artist than Sargent
himself was asked to paint a lace
founce for a leader Of American fash
ion. He declined, but laughingly de-
clared that it was great temptation
TO him.
There are lovely lace iounces of little
intrinsic value because done by the
hand Of the amateur at home, but
awfully pretty just the samei There is
something so light and feminine about
the colors as they are laid upon the
fabrics that one cannot help being
tempted by them, even though one
knows that they are delicate and not to
be worn more than one season, or two
at the most.
The American girl, who is usually Of
economic mind and Of durable intent,
has fallen first victim to the hand
painted craze. It's prettiness was too
much for her. She was captivated by
the colors.- and before the fad had be-
come full grown across the waters,
where it started. she was one of its
willing admirers at home.
And why not? The hand-painted girl
is a new girl; she is a pretty girl; her
gowns look feminine and they are not
necessarily dear, so why should she not
long TO be hand-painted?
The First Painted Gown.
The first oil-painted gown Of the sea-
son came from Paris. Here, under the
watchful eye Of the best modiste in
France, It grew. Gradually it developed
from a poor little insignificant dress
into one with all its straight breadths
done In roses and with its yoke and
cuffs all trailing with the same bios

tered a small fortune to secure a gown
which should be absolutely novel 1t
was a decided success and its color, a
delicious shade Of burnt cream, was
most charmingly brought out with its
garlands and branches of garden roses.
While there is a tendency toward the
wild flower decorations it must be ad-
mitted that the American girl has
twice the fondness. for the product of
the hothouse. She likes the rose, but 1t
is not necessarily the wild rose. She
paints the orchid, not the orchid Of the
jungle, but the orchid Of the conser-
vatory. She paints the violet, but 1t is
the heavy violet Of cultivation, not the
little soft violet Of the wildwoods.
These things are important to know,
for they mark the boundary between
style and no style at all; they show
the difference between the professional
and the amateur.
In Newport there is smart set. This
is the set whose leaders are million
aires and whose debutantes are the
catches of the season. In this set there
is one girl who is hand-painted girl;

tinctive. A beautiful garden party
dress, one that can be worn next win
ter as a dinner gown, was of onion
green taffeta, Of the soft quality which
does not crack or muss.
This gown. which was made with
the plain round skirt, just escaping the
floor, was trimmed around the foot
with two wide ruff1es, These rufiies
were twelve inches deep and were
shirred around the foot of the skirt
with a little heading Of Valenciennes
lace. At the bottom Of each ruffie
there was a band of deep green taffeta
on which was painted a running vine

a hand-painted band Of green silk.
In addition to the gown the hand

GOVERNOR CARTER SAYS IT Is
NOT HIS BUSINESS TO GIVE

Governor Carter seems TO want it TO
be understood that he is not going to

or legal advisor for the public I'm gem

Every day l am asked by someone

directing any persons actions. 1 am
not here to give advice and if people
want to know what the law is they
should seek the aid of their own legal
advisors. If their attorneys tell them
to go up against the law, all well and
good, but they will have to take their
own chance es."

The committee was very strong i'm op-

time. a third meeting was held by the
two committees with the Tourist Pro-
motion Committee and the matter was
gone into at considerable length
The general conclusion reached is
that the coming year win afford bet

lieve that there will be a much larger

CONDITION OF
TOEPELMANN
POLICE OFFICER TESTIFY THAT
HE WAS DRUNK WHEN AR
RESTED.

Statements were made today by the
various police officers concerned in the
arrest and incarceration Of Toepelmann
Mounted Officer r.. p. Reuter- who sent
in the call for the patrol wagon told
Of having found Toepelmann lying face
downward, on the right side, on King
street near Liliha street Wednesday
night about 1880 o'clock. The man
appeared to be dead drunk He was
not unconscious at the time. The Of
ficer smelt liquor on Toepelmann'
breath.
Turnkey Scott Wright who was in
charge of the prison cells when TOepel-
mann was brought into the station said
that while searching Toepelmann, the
latter had been conscious and had tried
to shove the turkeys hand away.
Wright told Billy Woods who relieved
him about 10 minutes after the man
had been brought i'm that he had better
watch the man who was apparently
paralyzed drunk Both of them eX-
amined him and the mans pulse was
normal and Woods found the heart
beating all right Billy Woods the other

COLLECTION OF LOCAL E>RKEEPERs CALLED BEFORE THE
INQUIsIToRs THIS MoRNrNG-wAvE OF REFORM AT LAST
REACHES GRAND JURY ROOM

The Grand Jury. with Foreman Tuckl
er presiding, was i'm session again i'm
the Throne room of the Capitol again
this morning.
The first part of the time was taken
up in hearing the evidence to be given
i'm the case against the Japanese Ta-
kata accused of the murder of Fugita
on November g. The case arose be-
tween the two Japanese at the Kahuku
plantation ON the Japanese emperors
birthday. The men had been drinking
considerably and they quarrelled over a
gambling debt A fight ensued in
which empty bottles and knives figured
and as a result Fujita died.
From eleven o'clock on, the now IA
nous detective Halter played the star
part before the Grand Jury. The usual
secrecy as to his disclosures was OBJ
tanned but from the fact that among
the witnesses were several bar tenders
at well known saloons, it may be as
sumed that the matter of liquor law
observance was under investigation.
Shortly after eleven o'clock bevy of
Hawaiian beauties appeared at the
Capitol and asked for Detective Halter

CRIMINAL CASES
NEARLY ALL PAU
GEARS CALENDAR SMALL NOW
BUT LIKELY TO BE INCREASED
-
SOON.

The criminal calendar in Judge
Gears court is now pretty well cleared
as only a few of the remaining cases
will in all probability be heard during
the present term. Among the more
important will be that of Stephen Ma
haulu for embezzlement and of Araki
for assault with a deadly weapon. Pang
Kau, charged with an assault on a
little girl may be tried again the jury
having disagreed. Emmet Mays case
will probably go over. Eugenio Ar
royo, accused of murder i'm the first de-
gree, will probably be tried, his case
being set in order.
1t seems probable that the somewhat
slim calendar will be fattened con-
siderably on Monday. The indictment
mill has been working steadily under
the management of Grand Jury Fore
man Tucker and there should be a
whole grist of accused when the report
is next submitted.

REGISTRATION
BOARD FUNDS
A BLUNDER IN THE APPROPRIA-
SESSION.

Owing to the fact that somebody
blundered in drawing up the bill for
appropriations during the special ses-
sion of 1904, the members of the Regis
tration Boards for the Kauai and the
Maui districts are face to face with the
disagreeable proposition of paying sew
eral hundreds of dollars for steamer
hire out of their own pockets. In what
is known as the eighteen months" bill
of 1903 a sum for election expenses Of
$12,5OO was set aside, with special pro-
vision that ii was to be available for
the payment of transportation of Re
gistration boards between the islands.
In the 1904 appropriations this provi-
sion was somehow or other omitted and
a sum of $4,000 was election expenses
was set aside. The members of the
boards are allowed s. day but 1t hap
pened that owing to heavy weather
both the Kauai and Maui boards had to
hire steamers at considerable expense
to transport them between the differ
ent islands I'm order to keep their en-
gagements. They Included the hire
