RESULT OF wOMAN.s TASTE.

1t is not generally known that the Sc
lection Of the prevailing colors OF blue
and white-and particularly that
shade Of blue known as navy blue
in naval uniforms is the result Of a
woman's taste. Toward the close of
the reign of George II efforts were
made to clothe the officers and sailors
in the English navy with some degree
of uniformity. Previously the men, as
a rule, dressed themselves in whatever
manner seemed pleasing to each or in
whatever habiliments they could afford
or the purser's stores offered. As re-
suit OF this lack of system, nearly ev-
cry color and shade of the rainbow
was represented in the wearing ap-
parel of man-of-war's men, compared
with which Joseph's coat Of many
colors" paled into insignifcance. Those

THE MARRIED WOMAN'S CARD
CLUB

The Married Women's Card Club met
for reorganization Tuesday morning at
the home of the secretary, Mrs. John S.
Howkins. AS a number of the mem

have been one or two designations
from the club, only eight members
were present.
Plans for the year were talked over,
and the names of new members were
proposed. To these invitations to join
will be sent at once. The date of the
first entertainment of the club was not
decided upon, but this usually takes
place the latter part of November, and

AT THE THEATER

Murray and Mack have been 50
long in mediocre comedy, in which
they found limited opportunity for the
display of the merit which they really
possess in more refined amusement.
that few were prepared for the very
excellent treat offered at the matinee
and evening performances yesterday
when AN English Daisy" was pre-
scented.
This duo of comedians have been
looked on as staple" goods in the
comedy line. but they have made cap
ital out of their first effort to please
the downstairs crowd. with Just
enough red light" variety to appease
the roaring gallery god.
An English Daisy" is a musical
comedy with both music and comedy
and was presented by singers and
comedians. Such a commonplace state
ment ordinarily means but little, but
to-day when there are so many allie
gators making up the advance no
tees, this statement carries much
force with it. In Atlanta one of the
papers severely criticised the produc-
ton, which certainly must not have
been the verdict of the theater patrons
who go to the theater to see a musical
comedy.
When this attraction was first put
on the road two real live lions were
carried along at a great expense.
In the scene where the performers
get near the cage one of the beasts
reached out its claw and came very
near killing one of the women in the
cast. Since then the real live ones
have been discarded and two realistic
property lions are now used

CHEAP GRADES BOOMING.
Russo. Japanese War Causes Advance
in Pink Salmon.

HussosJapanese War Causes Advance
] in Pink Salmon.
| Belisngham, March THE Russian
Japanese war Is proving boon to the
fishing industry, particularly the cheap
er grades. or pink salmon. AS result
the prospects for the cannerymen ap-
pear very much brighter for the coming
season than they did few weeks ago
There II never any dearth In the run
OF the cheaper grades OF salmon, and
II they command good prices there is
encouragement for the Gamers to pack
them.
The prevailing low prices OF lew
weeks ago brought about by we'll
known combination OF circumstances
designed TO benefit the sockeye market
was proving well-nigh disastrous TO
many cannerymen. whose output is
confined chiefly to the cheaper grades,
hut who now can go on with the prom
Ise Of better times and a chance to
make money. This is also encouraging
10 other interests, because SO far as
the community is concerned, there Is
practically as much benefit derived
from the packing Of case Of cheap
salmon az from the higher grdes.
These are conclusions adduced by
men who have been in close touch with
the fishing industry since its infancy.
II is fact that but very recently pink
salmon was quoted at only so cents a
dozen The demand caused by the
outbreak OF war in the far east has
caused sharp advance. and now buy
ers are going among the cannerymen
who are SO fortunate as to have stores
on hand and Offering 65 cents. The
cannerymeu are holding out stiff for rs
cents, and confident of getting their
price within the next so days,
AS an illustration of what this means
Ii Is pointed out that the holdings of
one canneryman who resides in this
city have advanced in value $4,000 in
the past 80 days. AS to the pros
poets for the coming season, It is stat
ed~that owing to large shipments made
around the Horn to the eastern coast,
there remains a small supply OF pink
salmon on the Pacific coast, estimated
at somewhere in the neighborhood OF |
50, 900 or 10000 cases. With this con-
iition of affairs 1t is argued. that can
nerymen are practically assured OF
profitable prices for their pack Of cheap
g,ades this season.
