The fashion of the gown counts less

Black Lace on White Not.
Black lace is much seen in appli-

the contrast is apt to be rather strong.
Black motifs in guipure or Arabian
lace are seen on white chantilly,
vaenciennes or point de paris, while
black chantilly or other fine trans
parent laces are used as insets or
banding with heavy white or cream
laces.

and point de venise lace. The skirt
is built in sections of shirring and
tucks divided by lace panels. Lateral
tucking form a yoke around the hip,
inset with lace which runs horizontal
ly. Then comes a wide band of
lateral tucking and a narrow band of
the lace. This is followed by a band
of tucked chiffon cloth, with the
tucks running horizontally and a band
of the lace set beneath it. Last comes

cloth, tucked laterally and inset with
panels of the lace. with deeper hori-
zontal tucks forming the finish at

From the indianapolis News.
j. F. Callen has received a peculiar
device from the Prohibition state of
South Dakota that may afford some
comfort to those of Indiana that feel
their rights are endangered by Charles
E. Newlin's threat to carry this state
for the Prohibitionists.
1t is a spirit level, ruler, calendar
and pencil holder combined, and in the
state of South Dakota sells two for a
quarter at the best regulated hardware
stores.
Where there was one hardware
store in one town, there are now three,
and all are doing a big business in
spirit levels says Callen.
The most interesting thing about the
device is the spirit level, with empha-
sis on spirit" In the center of a
square piece of wood about eight inches
long is hole running lengthwise, into
which fits very neatly a glass tube,
Tight corked, containing two ounces
of it's. Another hole running
lengthwise is just big enough to hold
a lead pencil. In the middle of the
piece of wood are two holes running at
right angles to the aperture extraor-
binary containing the tube. One can
look into these smaller holes and see
the spirits in the glass tube. The tube
is not quite filled and the air space
is visible, while the owner of the de-
vice is looking in to see if he is stand
ing straight. Satisfied on this score,
he may, if he chooses, extract the tube
from the frame uncork it-and pro-
coed to the work of putting down liq-
uor according to the manner in vogue
iii Prohibition states. Thereupon
the possessor has no more use for the
spirit level, nor the lead pencil, nor the
calendar, nor the ruler
From which it appears that spirits
may be used in the arts and sciences
in Prohibition states. And necessity is
the mother of invention.

A sHREWD POLITICIAN.

The President is showing himself to
be a pretty shrewd politician, not
withstanding the fact that he is laugh
ed at for his strenuosity and his
posing as a broncho buster He is in
sisting that Mr.. Cannon, the Speaker
of the House, shall be the Republican
nominee for Vice President, and Mr..
Root shall be the Republican candidate
for Governor of New York. Ell
And why does he insist upon Can
non and Root? Because there is some
doubt about his carrying Illinois and
New York, and he thinks they would
assist him. Mr.. Cannon is very popu-
lar in Illinois. His name on the pres
idential ticket would be worth a good
many thousand votes to it, and Mr..
Root is popular in New York. 1t is
probable that he could come nearer
carrying that state than any other Re
publican that could be named.
Mr. Cannon, however, doesn't want
the nomination for Vice President and
isn't going to take II If he can avoid
doing so without making too many
enemies in his party. He prefers the
place he has and would rather take
the chance of being reelected to it
than to be named for the second place
on the presidential ticket.
Mr.. Root is even more emphatic in
his desire to keep out of politics for
the present. He resigned his place in
the cabinet in order to get hack to his
law practice. He wanted, he said, to
provide competency for his family.
The President. however, seems to
think his political fortunes are of
more consequence to his friends than
their own can possibly be to them and
so, it is said, he is insisting that
Mr.. Cannon and Mr.. Root shall aban-
don their plans and come to his assist
ance.

A story of RnisuIi.

Raisuli, the Moorish bandit, who has
achieved such worldwide fame by kid
mapping Mr.. Perdicaris and his Eng
fish son-in-law, and holding them for
ransom, is an unusually clever ex-of-
t1cial of the Moorish Sultan, who spent
some years in Algeria, where he ac-
quired a knowledge of legerdemain,
which has given him an immense in
tluence over his followers, who regard
him as possessed of supernatural
powers, writes Marquise de FOntenoy
in the Philadelphia Press. Dozens of
stories could be told how, by tricks of
conjuring, this man has impressed his
adherents with the conviction that his
life is charmed and that he is under
the special protection of Allah.
AS an instance of his cleverness in
these tricks. 1 need merely relate the
following well authenticated tale. 1t
seems that some time ago he was
warned that the death of some of his
followers was causing great dissatis-
faction among his adherents, who be-
lieved that they should share his i'm
munity from harm. Accordingly, in
the privacy of his own praying tent, he
dug a deep grave, and buried his only
confidant and devoted confederate,
with bamboo in his mouth, commu-
received a deputation of the disaf-
fected:
You complain that followers of
mine have been slain" he exclaimed.
That is your ignorance of their real
state. Listen You shall speak with
one of them, with Absalam Riff, whom
you saw shot but yesterday. Speak!
Ho! Absalam Riff, and from out of
the earth voice assured the half ter
rifed and wholly reverent Moors that
the speaker then occupied a most
sumptuous pavilion in Paradise, the
adored and petted of legions of hours,
position which, could his adherents
but picture it to themselves, they
would forthwith strive to attain by
the simple means of meeting death in
their lords service.
When the voice ceased Raisuli ex-
claimed This spot is now sacred"
as he placed his foot over the bamboo
end, through which his buried confed-
crate drew breath. I'VE will straight
way erect shrine upon it," and with
that he instructed every member OF
the now trebly devotc men compos-
ing the deputation, to go forthwith
and to each fetch a great stone with
which cairn was raised preparatory
to building the shrine.
That was the end OF Raisuli's faith
full confederate and lieutenant, and
also the end of all risk of his ever be-
traying his master. May Allah give
him peace

1t takes horse sense to beat a genius.
RUDE Waddell, the Philadelphia pitch
er, is the genius, and Manager Connie
Mack has the horse sense, says the
Washington Post. Being the most &C.
centric twirler in the business, Rube is
expected by every other manager in
the country to hike to the fishing pond
after the next game"
Thus far this year Rube has stuck.
The secret of his regularity lies in the
fact that every time he pitches game
he thinks he is sitting on a grassy bank
pulling in big fish.
In the bleachers opposite first base
at Philadelphia there sit FIVE valiant
are the hired hands and they know
their lines. When Rube walks up to
the plate rubber one of the fans sings
out: Fine day for fishing, Rube.
They'll bite to-day"
Rube strikes out the first man and
Rooter No. 2 chimes out: you've land
ed the first one. Rube." RUDE thinks
he means a whale.
When a drop shoot fools the batsman
Rube hears a big round voice shout:
Hell bite on another just like that
one" When Rube ties himself to throw
the next ball he imagines he is putting
fresh frog on the hook.
The game gets hot and the valiant
FIVE yell in chorus: you've got EN- in
the boat. They're in deep water. Let
'em swallow the hook"
If Rube shows signs of weakening the
hired hands cry: dig bait or fish"
Rube fishes.
In the ninth inning, when it's coming
easy and the Athletics are off in the
lead, the call of the five is: you've
got 'em. They've given up. Reel in,
Rube old boy. Reel in"
And Rube hates 1t, maybe.
