Herman Schubach and Miss Hey
man Marry Despite Sentence
Against Bridegroom.

The wedding Of Herman Schubacb, a
Market street. and Miss Jeanette Heyman
Of No. 1918 Cook avenue was very nearly
delayed by the officers OF the law, but
the wedding took place as arragned.
The wedding was set for yesterday. and
several days ago schubach was sentenced
to pay a fine of SEQ and serve ten days
in jail for contempt of court in the al
legged violation Of an order restraining
him from selling nontransferable railroad
tickets. He was allowed n few days to
arrange his affairs before beginning his
sentence, and in the meantime secured
a writ Of habeas corpus from the Supreme
Court.
When the time for him TO go to Jail ar
rived Tuesday, he asked permission to give
bond until the action on the habeas corpus
could be tried The Circuit Judge before
whom the case was tried refused to ac-
cept bond so Deputy Sheriff Frank Burns,
accompanied Scbubach to the residence of
Judge Daniel d. Fisher who released the
prisoner on bond
Schubach hurried to the home of his
betrothed yesterday morning and they
went to the City Hall and secured IL
cense and soon were married. 1t is un-
derstood that they intended going to Eu-
rope on bridal tour. but the pending
action probably will necessitate Schu-
bach's presence in this country. At Schu-
bachs office last night it was stated that
he had gone to the coast.
At the residence of the bride no infor-
nation was given out other than that the
lady was not at home and it was not
known when she would return.

Hints for Summary Effects il
Framing Win
dows.

Many housewife starts out with the de-
termination not to put up curtains during
the summer, but despite awnings and even
Venetian blinds, she discovers that the bare
windows get on her nerves long before the
dog days arrive.
The shops are Offering very pretty sum-
mer stuffs for window hangings, and The
primary rule is to avoid drapery and get
straight, simple effects For bed room and
boudoir windows. the fashionable fabric is
linen taffeta figured in pompadour and
Marie Antoinette designs. Imitation Gre
tonnes come in much the same coiorings and
patterns, and for as low as dollar pair
of muslin curtains with borders in pretty
designs of various shades can be purchased.
Bamboo curtains are very popular also.
For the living room there is nothing pref
tier than imitation madras in mixed green
and blue, or the plain green. city wo-
man who cannot afford the usual jaunt to
the country for her family made an ideal
room for hot weather. Her walls We're a
woody green and she gathered in this
room all the rush and wicker furniture at
her command The sofa cushions were COW
cred with mating, summer silk and dim
ity all in woodland tones. Her windows
were hung with straight drapery of green
madras, and on either side of the deep
casing and along the curtain pole she hung
small rustic hanging baskets and japanese
white bIoomed The effect of this cool
room on hot afternoon was enticing.
In country shacks where people live in
true camping fashion heavy draperies are
sometimes used to supplement the windows
in keeping out draughts, for windows are
put into these shacks bungalows in a
fashion which admits plenty of air all
around them. Dimity and crash are the
favorite fabrics, and green or emerald ecru
the fayorite colorS.
For such a bungalow or shack an awning
stretched the entire length of the sunny
side is essential. This is cheaply made by
stretching canvas on strongly built wood
work. A woman of economical but artistic
tastes. who has cottage on a lake shore
selected for such an awning dark green and
white ticking, which she cut in points and
bound with green braid From the frame
OF this homemade awning she hung a row
of condensed milk cans, pierced at the bot
tom to let the water run out and filed with
hardy vines, which quickly grew and hid
her home made receptacles. Her porch was
very much admired during the whole sum
mer.
