One does not realize how almost universal is
the guimpe and choker of lace until one looks for
a gown made in some other way. The fashion is
so becoming and can be adapted to so many
different styles of costume that its success
should not perhaps be wondered at.
There is an attractive gown Of pale blue cloth
worn at the Palais Royal, the theatre of pretty
actresses and extravagant dressing. The skirt
is finished with two deep tucks taken in the
stuff, and this are two narrow sash ends
that fall down, one on each side of the front

behind. These long ends are ornamented by
circles cut out of blue velvet and appliqued with
narrow blue braid The bodice is pointed ard
draped, and from the shoulders fall little pleated
pieces suggesting a short boero The edges of
this are ornamented with pattern done in mar
row blue velvet, and the same trimming edges

Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. 1S.-In Wis
consin fleas have become accessories
to forgery. That is the condition
found a North Milwaukee.
Geo. Emmet, alias Jack O'Mally,
stands accused of having committed
forgery with the aid of fleas. He
is a fugitive from justice.
OMally has had a checkered ca
reer, judging from his story. He
turned up at North Milwaukee, where
he wrote poetry and showed himself
generally fruitful of interesting stor-
les. He secured a position with
Luther Bros, manufacturers of grind
ing machines. His quick wits made
him popular with the company. Soon
he was writing their advertisements
and became a trusted emp.Oye.
Monday at 10 a. m, he passed the
office door. the next moment the EN-
plOyes were driven from their desks
by an army of leas which descended
upon them. Where they came from
was a mystery. They routed the Of
flee force and then made an attack
on the plant. 1t had to be shut down
The managers of the plant tele-
phoned to Milwaukee in attempts to
&c some eXterminarOr which would
war with the fleas.
They were not successful. George
Albuquerque evening citizen., 1905-08-18

Emmett entered the office and his
employers praised him for his brav-
cry. They decided to raise his salary.
Emmett stayed in the office a long
while for the ostensible purpose of
eXterminating the fleas
That afternoon he left town. About
the same time the fleas disappeared.
The next morning Samuel New
mann, manager of the company, re-
ceived telephone calls regarding sew
eral orders of goods. Come to find
out, Emmet had made the rounds the
day before, ordered all kinds of goods
and cashed $500 worth of checks
drawn on tie Wisconsin National
Bank. The surplus Of a large stock
of small grinding machines also was
found in his room.
Then they woke up. While Emmett
has been in the office, presumably
to Kill fleas, he had been writing
checks. Everyone agreed that unless
he had some secret understanding
with the fleas he could not have lived
in the building. Whether it is true
or not the people of North Milwaukee
believe firmly that George Emmet,
alias Jack O'Mally, and alias several
other things. had trained the fleas
and that when he left town mis- army
of winged coadjuaors had left with
him.
