The most novel and picturesque fur
garments of the present season are the
pelerine capes and shawls distinguish
ed by their great amplitude and lavish
orinamentation. They are, perhaps,
more suitable for women Of middle age
than for younger women, yet they are
worn quite as freqently by those un
der as well as over thirty, and are
among the most useful and comfort
able carriage wraps seen in years. The
accompanying illustration shows a
beautiful cape made of fine, glossy
mink that reaches to just below the
waist line. 1t is very full and graceful
in cut and the fur is so arranged that
its markings run around the figure
through the cape portion and up and
down in the broad stole piece that
edges the cape and falls eight or ten
inches below it. 1t is1ined throughout
with white satin, which is embroidered,
to the depth of the stole, in soft tones
of blue silk combined with applications
of silver gauze. Another charming and

much less expensive model, cut on
similar lines, is made of Persian lamb
with a wide silk fringe finishing the
lower edge. Gray squirrel in it's nat
ural color, or dyed to initiate chin
chilla, or some other fur, also makes
delightful capes and shawls that are
moderate in price. Other models are
trimmed with collar or stole or are
bordered all around with some differ
ent fur, and still others are decorated
with cord and tassel ornaments, che
nile, passementerie and fringes of all
kinds, and in shape they may be
either shorter or longer than the model
Illustrated. Hats of the same fur trim
med either with flowers or feathers are
generally worn with these capes, the
one shown being an exceptionally
smart model ornamented by two large
dark red roses. Such capes are very
convenient. for theater or even opera
wear, as they afford ample protection,
and yet may be easily removed and
take up but little room in the carriage,
box or theater seat.

CREATIONS IN DRESS
IN BLOSSOMS NEW PLAY
They Will Be Exhibited Thursday Night
in "Stroneheart" at Metropolitan

st. Paul women are to have a sar-
torial treat this week in the gowns
worn by the young women in Robert
Blossoms company. On Thursday night,
when Mr.. Edeson presents Strong
heart" for the first time on any stage,
the gowns to be worn are creations
which no woman can afford to miss.
Miss West, Miss Tyler and Miss Comp
ton are given opportunities of costum-
ing to which no actress-or woman
is Indifferent.
In the first act of "Strongheart7 Miss
Tyler appears in an imported toilette
just brought over from Paris by one
of New York's well known medistes;
in color it is a pearl gray, of soft and
clinging material, the waist laid in
folds running from yoke of Persian
embroidery in pink, blue and silver.
The cuffs reaching to the elbow are of
the same embroidery ornamented with
silver buttons. The skirt is long and.
plated, and the hat, which completes
this stunning costume is one of the
symphonies composed in rare moments
by Francois and made of pale blue lace
accentuated by small pink roses. An
ermine muff is carried with this
One of the most beautiful creations
is the evening gown worn by Miss Ty-
Ter in the third act. 1t is corn colored
lace over three chiffon skirts of the
same shade, they in turn being made
over liberty satin petticoat. This is
simple, but rich, and has a girdle of
irridescent spangles.
In the fourth act Miss Tyler wears an
afternoon frock of white crepe de chine
1t is a elinging effect and is made with
tucks.
Miss Compton also has chances in
"Strongheart" to wear finery loved of
all women. She appears in a white
broadcloth walking gown with white
chiffon waist over which is worn a sort
of harness of the white cloth, with
which is used gold buttons. A three
cornered beaver hat is worn with this.
Another of her gowns is light blue
taffeta trimmed with six pinked ruffies
about the skirt, making the old-fash-
ioned grandmother effect so much in
vogue just now. She wears, too. q
smart walking suit Of dark blue cloth.
with little red vest, and red turban
completes this most fetching costume.
An evening gown of pink will make
the mouths of the women water, and a
brown velvet walking costume worn by
Miss West, combined with pale blue
and hat to match, is one of the things
to remember. Miss West also wears a
girlish dress of white silk muslin, and
Miss Rivers appears in q violet velvet
adorned with shirred chiffon hat of the
same shade, and a sable muff. This
completes the list of creations which
the women of St Paul will be able to
see on Thursday night before they are
seen by any other eyes

English Are Angry

MEXICO CITY, Mex, Dec. 26.-News
from Guatemala shows there is much
feeling on the part of British residents
regarding the nom payment of the debt
due to British bondholders, and it is
asserted that the British legation will
be removed from Guatemala City to
either Nicaragua or Salvador. There
seems to be no prospect of the Guate-
malan government complying with the
obligations to foreign creditors. The
best people in Guatemala deplore the
attitude of the government and its dis
regard of its obligations.
The government has made a number
of minor diplomatic changes. Manuel
Barriero, secretary of legation to
Chile, goes to Berlin; Juan Beistegue,
charge d'affaires in Germany Is made
minister to Spain and Portugal.
Much interest is shown by railway
companies in oil now flowing at Ebano.

that warrant is due from the day Of

The charge has been made that

this state, although no polyeam
Gus marriages are solemnized except
IN the secrecy Of the temples in Utah

impossible TO convict them aud the
only punishment that can be inflicted
Is for lewd cohabitation, which is
not a more serious crime than a mis-
demeanor punishable BY a fine aud

Mr.. Cooling, republican candidate

JEROME'S
Tommy @ COMPANY

-oMMY & co." Jerome X. Je-
IS rome's latest book, is somewhat
disappointing IN its entirety.
Perhaps IL Is unfair TO Judge
Kr. Jerome's subsequent work by the
standard OF the inimitable Three Men
IN a Boat" but the temptation is natur-
ally yielded TO by the reader and by
this criterion Tommy & Co" falls
away behind that delightful log of a
Thames voyage. It is too sketchy
throughout, too labored in some OF it's
witty interludes; spontaneity seems to
be gone; unity OF purpose is not sus-
pended from cover to cover.
From the possibilities latent in the
first chapter Of the book the reader is
led 10 believe that Tommy IS to hold
center stage throughout, but with the
second chapter-a short story in itself
as are all the rest-it becomes evident
that * Co" is 70 have the honors Of
attention distributed among its several
members impartially and that the lit
tie girl waif. Tommy. in the record Of
whose gradual transformation from a

did story material lies, has little more
10 do with the book besides to assist in
its naming For this is not a continued
story, Ringing On one plot, but q sue
cession Of incidents, given short story
fern, in which there appear the same
dramaus personae.
Mr.. Je-ome's manifest purpose is to
give picture Of the higher circles oe
London's bohemia, the Bohemia of the
journalists and the clever people who
contribute 10 the gsyety Of nations
through the fancies of an Grant Quill.
Through the collection or incidents set
forth IN Tommy & Co" the English
humorist has succeeded in bringing his
picture Of the unconventional joys OF
editors and space writers into very
clear perspective, but the picture itself
has about ii no great measure OF at
tractiveness.
There are two of the stories incor-
