Gossip About the Great National
Game.

Sunday last was Easter and re-
allzing this fact and desiring to
celebrate appropriately in honor
of the occasion the New Iberia
High School nine presented the
Brooklyn Boys with nine eggs
eggs"-in the presence
of quite crowd of spectators at
at the Base Ball Park. Or to be
more plain, they again walloped
the B. BIS, this time making a
total of II run to their opponents
0.
The game was too one.sided to
be interesting to those who we're
in attendance. 1t was a walk-over
pure and simple and the N Fl SIS
had things pretty much their own
way from the first till last innings;
srill it required strenuous efforts
on the part Of the victors to pre-
vent their opponents making a
single run, yet the feat was accom-
plished. Try as they might it
seemed entirely impossible for
the over the bayou boys to score;
they were outclassed, due in a
measure to lack of team work and
practice on their part.
Ellie r. Chivers handled the
indicator and gave eminent sat
isfactiOn to all concerned.

attractive suit of the latter shade is
effectively trimmed with bands of
openwork gold lace braid over white
silk. The skirt is fashioned with a
double box-pleated tablier front. The
sides are cut with a pleated fiounce,
which runs into the box-pleated back.
This is similar to the front.
The short rounded eton is edged
with the gilt braid. Although without
a standing collar, it is fastened at the
throat by a gilt and plum colored
cord. Below, it parts to show the trim
silk blouse of the same shade of silk.
The gold braid also edges the cape
collar and serves as a cuff to the full
sleeve. The silk blouse sleeve forms
an undersleeve puff beneath. A crush
girdle of the silk gives natty nnish
to the suit.
There is on evident desire to carry
out a definite color scheme when Sc
lecting the silk blouse, which generally
accompanies an eton suit.
The blouse of broken plaid tweed
suit repeats the gray and blues of its
tones. The tweed is used with plain
blue cloth in a double effect scalloped
bolero. The edges of both the cloth
and the tweed are finished by narrow
blue silk braid. A double effect is also
obtained on the half length sleeve by
the use of the cloth and tweed. Mar
row, closely braided strips of the cloth
bar the shoulders. The silk blouse
has a stock of the tweed and cloth.
It's sleeve puffs appear below the half
sleeves and are finished at the wrist
by lace ruffies. The shaped hip yoke
of the skirt is edged with the braid
1t runs into a braid outlined tablier
front. Pleats are. set at intervals of
twelve inches or so around the bot
tom, so as to give the proper flare.
Wolfe Being Used.
Wolfe is being combined with Bull
garian embroideries with striking ef-
feet.
A beige wolfe is charmingly fash
toned over brown taffeta silk. Strap
pings OF the same SILK form con-
siderable part of the suit trimming.
The tight fitting eton is cut with
long shoulder seams and fitted belt =.
II has a narrow vest Of the Bulgarian
embroidery and is furthermore en-
beilished by narrow tucks and by wolfe
mounted strips Of silk over the shout
ders. The full sleeves dro0p over
shaped cuffs ornamented by the
stitched silk bands. Wide lace rufliea
fall gracefully over the wrists.
The skirt has a deep hip yoke, 10
which the deep double box pieatg are
attached. These are stitched down
Tor q few inches and then left 70 fare.
