Piumes in Hats

cent expositions in certain Of the
wholesale millinery houses, it must
be admitted that seldom have they

new models.
An increasing trend toward cocks
plumes is observable, notably those
fashioned of the long curving tan
feathers of some varieties of the do
nestle bird; and much use is expected
to be made of curled Tyre cocks tails.
Paradise-bird plumes appear on not

Fur Goats In All Lengths.

Fur Goats In All Lengths.
All fur coats are not short, however.
There are half-length coats.
There are three-quarter length coats.
There are coats of full length.
A redingoat of broadtail is an edi-
ton de luxe in the three-quarter
length. 1t is double breasted in the
slightly diagonal fashion from the left
side of the square neck to the centre
front at the lower edge of the garment.
Both fronts are cut in the same fash
ion which makes a full length grad
uated lapel on each side, should the
coat ever be worn open and turned
back. 1t is not likely 1t will, however,
as it looks too well buttoned down
from the left of it's square neck, with
white kid buttons trimmed with black
Jet. These buttons are gems of beau
ty and smartness. Three Of a smaller
nize adorn each of the cuffs, which in
this case finish sleeves that just fall
short of reaching the wrist.
To harmonic with the buttons
there's the lining of white silk and the
band, over an inch in width, that out
lines the square neck-square at the
front that is-and a portion of the
square built cuffs. These bands are
made Of white kid, embroidered In
black silk in the Greek key pattern.
At intervals the embroidery is adorn-
ed with a cable made of the finest
black jet beads.
And so it goes.
Apparently there's no limit. The
gilet of one coats is embroidered In
wee rosebuds delicate enough to adorn
lingerie, while that of another shows
leather in strappings upon a cloth
foundation. Philadelphia Record.

Fred Straw aud Edith Lake Of Yer
shire drove to this city yesterday, the
former with an oflicial-looIing document

The Rev. w. A. Kinsie of the Baptist
church was the clergyman who united
the fugitive, and happy, pair.
Since the bride was little girl at
tending school she had been a fayorite
of the groom who is eleven years her
senior, and as the years passed the
friendship developed into love And the
love was reciproeated But parental au-
thority frowned upon the match and did
everything possible to discourage the
girl from keeping company with the man
who now i her husband in spite Of all
obstacles. In fact the parents looked
askanee at all suitors Of the girl, But
Fred Straw was persistent. and perhaps
he received encouragement from the wo.
man who is now his wife.
On Sunday the two made their plans
to get married The bride to be went
from church to the home Of an aunt and
remained there over night. Yesterday
her lover started ostensibly on a carri-
age trip with a male companion, but he
made a detour to the house of the girl IS
aunt where tile male companion left
the team and tile girl took his place.
And then started the elopement in broad
daylight to this city. On their arrival
here, their mission having been made
known, arrangements were at once made
for the marriage and the minister sum
moned. The marriage took place at half
past seven o'clock, being quietly car

Then the couple stole quietly away
and had almost started on their honey
moon when a party 0f friends descended
upon them and gave rousing end-oh

They drove last night to the home OF

With Two Others Escaped from County
Prison at Laconia, NH.

Laconia, n. H., August 15.-Three
prisoners who were confined in the Belk-
nap county jail awaiting trial on the
charge Of burglary escaped by breaking
Jail. The break was discovered about
s o'clock last night, when superinten-
dent Weymouth went to lock the pris-
oners in their cells.
The names Of the escaped prisoners
are William Fl. Lampman of St. Al
bans, Vt, Fred Miller Of Boston and the
other mans name could not be learned
as the mittimus OH which he was COM
mitted had not yet arrived at the Jail.
He was held on the charge Of breaking
into a drug store at Alton.
The men made their escape BY digging
out the brick at the lower right hand
corner Of the window in the extreme
southwest corner 81 the corridor.
The hole i about ten inches wide and
fourteen inches high, and it is thought
that the work was done with an ordinary
knife.
In the cells the prisoners had occupied
they had placed dummies IN their cots
made Of papers and the PRISON clothes
and covered them with blankets.
The three men occupied cells on the
upper tier, two Of which We're on the
west side and the other On the east
side.
The locks on these cells are Of an old
style, and according to the warden, a
prisoner could reach his hand through
the bars and with a bent nail could cas-
ily unlock the door.
