the novel frocks Of black taffetas. We
all Of us know Of the traditional black
silk that grandmother wore, rich and
elegant, and stiff enough TO stand alone.
These are Just the characteristics that
the modern dame, too, demands in her
silken gown: and the folks who lead the
fashions. both here and on the other side
of the "herring-pond," are copying all of
the designs that were worn by the ladies
of colonial days.
But there is a lack of stiffness and an
added gracefulness to these productions
of a later day. The silk is stiff, but not
too stiff; and the full wide skirt-it is
slightly gOred, you know, not the plain,
straight breadths that tgreat-grandmother
wore, mostly because she thought II
sinful waste to cut into the precious ma
terial-the full, wide skirts cling grace
fully close to the figure below the waist
band.
One such a gown is fashioned upon colo
nial lines, but with that graceful and ar
tistic touch of R,odernity that makes 1t
simply irresistible. There is, of course,
a carefully fitted lining, and on this the
bodice is arranged. The silk is shirred
down the center seam at the back. and
again in the underarm seams. There is
| a V neck, filled in with a Bruges lace
chemisette. this defined with strappings
of the silk shirred over featherbonf
] cords. These strappings cross on the
I bust, and are caught down with old
wrought silver buttons, and right where
they cross there is a cute little jabot OF
lace that adds a thousandfold to the
style.
Tho bodice shows the deep and sharT
point in front, coming down In straight
fronted style at least six inches below
the waistline, and the silk is wrinkleC
over this to an artistic effect. Th'
sleeves are delightfully."- modish. Just

There seems to be a reaction against
decollete styles for the younger bellies,
and many Of the most fascinating frocks
for evenings are made with either a
slight V in front, or else the st. Cecilia
throat is adopted. For informal and
family parties this seems a step in the
right direction, and when such is the
gathering then gloves are omitted. But
when the dancing party is Of the more
general and perhaps formal sort then
gloves are quite an important item. The
English fashion, which has been adopted
pretty generally all over the continent
Of Europe, is to wear the gloves all even
ing, and only slip the hand out for sup
per, leaving the long wrinkled mousque-
taire on the arm.
The newest gloves match the frock
when white, the soft grays, yellows and
blues are worn; but for all the other col
orings, and they be many, neutral tinted
gloves are considered correct. The girl
who looks best in rose reds and knows it,
does not indulge in suede gloves to match;
ard the same with the girl in green.
With brown and the paler tints of lilac
self-colored gloves are permissible, but
with all others white or mastique, II
black be not liked. will prove best. Added
TO which those gloves can then be worn
with more than one froek.
There is quite fad for the very faint
est shade Of lavender in gloves, such a
faint shade that it almost seems a pear
graz; and many Of the smartest Of So
ciety leaders are wearing nothing else in
gloves for all occasions. And, incident
lally. the glace glove is considered smarter
than the suede, and is assuredly newer as
well as more durable.
Whether she belong to the Society oi
Colonial Danes or not, the present-day
girl can succeed in looking quite like on'

modern belle does not for one moment,

of course. These little blouses are vastly
in vogue for afternoon use; and with
them is worn the successor TO the lingerie

summer time. The latest successor to
this favorite is fashioned in just about
the same way. The hat Of the late

tirelv of flowers-roses are dellghttully
modish-while the brim shows the char

added when a scrap OF fur is perched
somewhere on the hat. sable or some

be those East Indian scarfs and squares
of filmy texture, marvellous fineness, but
with a warmth in the wearing that one
could never guess at and hardly believe.
These are to be thrown over the head

other hangs downward over the arm for

Then the skirt 10 the gown is quite in

plain front breadth, very narrow, is bor-

forming the back. The front pleats are
decorated with rosettes, and from them

of shirring over cords at the top. This

many other of its various manifesto

/ favored for the corsage trimming. There
are capelet, rever, fichu, and vest effects

says that his city is growing rapidly,
and is very prosperous. The News
has just absorbed the Evening Bulle-

Statesman, when the Oregon men
went there and established an evening
paper. So they now have both the
scripps News service and the Associ-
ated Press evening service for that
territory. Mn. Fisher says Idaho will
go Republican, as Roosevelt is strong
all over the West He says Dubois
will control the Democratic organiza.

strong against the Mormons, and that
this will play into the hands of the Re.

such was Earl Archibald Sargents
confession to his mother just before

his employers property a case for
psychologists, another strong example
of dual personality.
In spite of a good mother, of bach.
elor's degree and of his university
training, young Sargent led Jekyll
and Hyde life, and now he is a
fugitive from justice, for he has twice
slipped through the hands of the Berk-
eley police and gone free. Where the
fugitive has gone no one knows. The
police are not trying to catch him. His
mother fears that he will kill him
self rather than submit to capture.
Everything about Sargeant's life of
late points to a sudden mental de-
rangement as the cause of his duality.
Sergeant has been a graduate
student at the University of Califor.
mia since the beginning of the year,
seeking a masters degree in the Col
lege Of Natural Sciences He was
graduated from the University of Ore
gon last year, and later attended the
University of Washington.
Through all his college career. he
