Chicago, March 15.-Through
the accidental dropping of a box of
toy torpedoes in the plant of the
Chicago Toy Novelty company this
morning three, and probably four
lost their lives, a building was
wrecked and fire started.
The ex xplosion took place shortly
after the workmen and girls ems
ployed in the factory had assembled,
and for time created a panic in
the vicinity Of the works, as first
rumors were to the effect that
much greater number of~lives had
been lost. Foreman Garden, who
was carryir g box, is said TO have
Slipped over some obstruction on
the floor, hurling the box forward.
It's detonation was followed by a
terrific blast as the other explosives
in the building were set off.
In the panic following, the streets
were instantly filled with employees
from the surrounding manufactur-
les, the police vainly struggling to
restore order and rescue any who
might be injured and still penned

flames Immediately began to issue.
| The fremen gained control of

lieved to be in the ruined building.

Fashions for Wee Folks.

Pale green in the soft, cool shades
is very pretty for sashes, hair bows
and the like, to accompany white
froCks.
Frocks for very small folk are in
the French form, with long waist and
much abbreviated skirt, standing out
,crisply in one-piece princesse form.
The one-piece frocks take various
forms. Most of them are plated in
side or box plaits from collar band to
hem, and with them is worn a belt in
Russian style.
White wool frocks are effectively

A Moonlight Dress.

One of the most charming flights
fashion has taken is in the form of a
moonlight dress" This most Won
derful effect can be achieved with
layers of filmy chiffon gauze, and
sheer glistening Liberty silk in these
shades: silver, white " 5onlight blue,
gray and other pale Enades.
There have been sunset gowns in
purple, rose, red gold, mauve cream
and turquoise blue, and autumn gowns
in the richness of color that season
suggests, also winter costumes all
white and cold and sparkling, but
never before a moonlight effect with
all its poetic fancy. Experts have
proved how beautiful it can be in
blending these requisite shades and

Old Coachmen Obsolete.

Perhaps it's fashion, perhaps it's
precaution that has brought about
change in the age and appearance of
New York coachmen. That "old and
trusted" individual who, according to
fiction, has bowled the family up and
down Fifth avenue for more years
than any ordinary coachman could
possibly exist in the borough of Man
haitian, is wholly obsolete. 1t takes
strong arms and steady nerves to
guide a prancing pair through the
maze of vehicles OF the carriage dis
tricts of New York, and men below
middle age are found far more suit
able for such service than older ones
are.

French kid gloves look fresh much

your hands become hot, breathe into
the gloves as soon as you take them
off. This helps to prevent the kid
