wear from calling to dancing, and
from house gowns to dinner gowns,

Brown Visiting Gown.
A visiting gown of a warm brown
tan velvet was a very snowy thing. 1t
was quite plain in that it was made
on shirt waist lines, with round waist
and a round skirt. The skirt. by the
way, was one of the straight-gored
ones. with narrow plaitings around
the hips to be Immediately released in
the skirt part. The waist was a blouse
waist.
The waist was trimmed with escu-
rial lace, put on in the form of incrusta-
tions. The figures were cut out and
the lace applied. Then, around the
9dge of the lace pieces there was lit
tie border of jewels. These were of
the mock jewel variety and could be
sewed through and through, like but
tons.
The girdle plays an important part
in the new gowns. One of the hand
soonest of girdles is made upon
foundation of bone and crinoline. The
front is very deep and is boned and
the back is treated in the same way.
The front is made of folds which cross
and come up high under series of lit
tie knots of ribbon. The back is fin
ished with a very long chiffon scarf
whose ends tie in the back
Another girdle, this one intended for
street wear, is made of very light
weight velvet. lined with velvet. so that
it is two sided. A wide band of the
velvet is brought around the waist and
tied in a knot. while the ends hang
down to the foot of the gown. Then
another piece Of velvet comes around
the waist, is tied In a knot high be-
tween the shoulders. and the ends hang
down again, almost trailing upon the
floor.
The appearance OF the girdle almost
indicates that it is to be a sash sum-
mer and. in fact. the firsI of the sum-
mer dresses all seem to have sashes
of one kind or another. And here is
where chiffon comes in handy, for the
chiffon sash sets off a gown so very

sash and find it becoming viii discover

the woman who Is keen on the subject

with lavender, and to keep the lavender
fresh requires some addition TO the
chest every week.
One Of the most charming little ef-
fects Of the whole year was produced
by woman who wore a visiting gown
Of black. all black. with the inevitable
trimming Of very fancy buttons There
was a little shoulder cape. for 1t was a
two-piece suit. But the front was open,
and this gave an opportunity for the
display of a very fancy vesting.
This woman, who is very deft, took
French model and copied it exactly.
She made a little vest Of white broad
cloth. which she embroidered by hand
down the front In military fashion. us
ing gold silk, gold braid and small
brass buttons. The buttons were caught
with little straps of silk braid and
white silk braid was used in the en-
broidery scheme. This way Of trim
ming a white vest front is heartily rec
commended to the woman who Is going
to wear a plain cloth suit for spring
and who relies upon her vest for ele-
gance.
The stock plays an important part,
for II matches the embroidery of the
vest. It is carried out in yellow silk,
In narrow gold braid and in few tur-
quoises, and is finished with very mar
row gold braiding around the upper
edge and around the lower part A
brass button finishes the little front
tabs. which are united with a white
silk loop.
You can do such lot with the plain
est of cloth suits IL only there Is an
opportunity for a vest with beautiful
decorations Many Of the handsomest
suits now come with three vests, an
embroidered chamois vest with oriental
embroidery upon its front; white
cloth vest carried out In gold and brass
buttons. and a vest of blue trimmed
with silver and gold

"Samson,s Riddle Solved" the sub
ject of Lecture.
At the Sunday-school room OF Trim
ity Methodist Church tonight Rev.
Lincoln Mcconnell of Atlanta will de-
liver his lecture on ''Samsonts Riddle
Solved" The indications are that he
will be greeted by large audience
During the series of revival meetings
which he held here Mr.. Mcconnell
made a lasting impression on his
audiences.
Samsons riddle, propounded to the
young men gathered together to feast
al a wedding was "Out of the eater
came forth meat, and out of the strong
came forth sweetness" A large stake
was put up by Samson that the young
men could not solve the riddle in the
seven days that the feasting was go
ing on. All efforts to solve the riddle
failed until Samson yielded to the pro-
testations Of his wife and told her the
answer.
The riddle, in all it's many phases
will be discussed by Rev. Mr.. %McCon-
nell. The circumstances of the case
under which the riddle arose and the
riddle itself, give Mr.. Mcconnell a
wide field and the opportunity OF IN
Producing many incidents from life.

DECISION GIVEN IN
CAR COMPANY CASE.
On Intervention FiDed by Holder OF
Orders Issued Laborers.

On Intervention Ffbed by Holder or
Orders Issued LabOrers.
Judge A. H. MacDonell, referee IN
bankruptcy, has decided upon the in
tervention which B. E. Morse some
time ago filed in the case of the Geor-
gia Car and Manufacturing Company.
The Intervention was for certain
claims of laborers, who had received
orders from the car company on Morse
for groceries in payment for labor.
Judge Speer referred the intervention
to the referee, and Judge MacDonell,
acting as special masteTb has decided
that Morse, in pursuance with an
agreement with the company and the
laborers, became transferee and owner
of all the rights of the laborers and
is entitled to judgment for that sum,
and to that priority, that the laborer
had. that is prior to all claims except
administration costs and, taxes. Judge
Speer has reviewed this decision and
approved it.
Since then a number of similar
claims have been filed. Among them
are Sancho Davis, for Sl65.S0; w. c.
McDonough, $157.75; Leopold Adler, ST.
20265; Globe Shoe Company, $494.5O,
and Emmett Moncrieffe, $S52.0S. Some
of these present other questions than
the one already decided.
