Fancy Work Fashions

Fancy Wofk EasnIohs-
Have reached a point where the embroid-
erer can use them to decorate her winter
as we'll as her summer clothes. Ribbon
work, snowy and quickly put on, is the
impressionist school of needle work, which
to the woman who aims at stunning eff
fects, appeals more than the slower lin
gerie embroidery.
a simple and easy way of applying ones
skill is TO replace in this way the tawdry
trimmings which spoil otherwise good
re&dy-made garments. A society woman
OF comparatively small means who brought
out daughter ard niece this month,
bought ready-made what have turned out
TO be two of the prettiest and most dis
tinguished dresses seen far this sea-
son.
One was a simple pink net well made,
with two skirts of the net mounted over
pink taffeta, and taffeta strappings on the
outside. 1t was pretty in material and

q guess they like it. I don't hear any
complaints" said hostess in discussing
with a few intimates the success of what
had been charmingly planned entertain
ment. This is the atmosphere in which
most entertainers are left after the door
has swung upon the last guest. The fash
ion which passes everybody out of the door
without passing good-bys or expressions OF
pleasure upon the hostess Is one that makes
for convenience and sincerity In the larger
and more formal affairs which are simply
matters of give and take. But the woman

Ularly pretty entertaining effort.

something missed if l don't get chance to
tell her of it"
Such women analyze each conventionality
as 1t comes along and choose and adapt
from It what best suits their idea of gra-

little discriminating admiration of her ef-

WEATHER FORECAST Washington, April 2..-For Alabama Partly cloudy Friday and Saturday, light variable winds.

Shapiros says the man started to rise from his seat. A second or two later she heard d shot Several persons ran toward the cab and being in delicate health the dentists wife hurried from the scene.
 She made her way back home on Second Avenue and told her mother, who confirms the story. They decided that owing to Mrs. Shapiross poor health she should keep the story se- cret in the hope that other witnesses would come forward and describe the events she saw, thus saving her an unplea sant ordeal on the witness stand and much notoriety.
 Having watched the progress of the trial, said Mrs. Shapiros, she finally be- came convinced she had made an error in keeping silent and has just told her husband. The latter decided that his wife should at once make her story public.
 Whether Mrs. Shapiros will be sum moned as a witness is not yet known, as the attorneys in the case will learn of her existence today for the first time. Mrs. Shapiros declares that SO close was she to the cab when the shot was fired that 1t would have been a physical impossibility for anyone but Young to have fired the shot. so firmly was he grasping the revolver when the cab passed.

Colorado Cities Want to Have Look al
 Teddy.

GIenwood Springs, Colo. April 2T.- Disappointment reigns in number of Colorado cities and towns along the route of the Presidents return trip to Washington because of his determina- ton to curtail his hunt and start for home on May s.
 While all invitations extended to the President to stop at various points not on the schedule have been rejected by Secretary Loeb. local organizations in these towns have been hoping that some time would be given them. The announcement of the change of the plans, which was made by Mir. Loeb today, carries with 1t the decision not to make any stops except at Denver and Chicago. The party will leave Glenwood Springs at about 4 o'clock on May 8, reaching Denver the same even ing. After the banquet there, the par ty will spend the night on the train which will leave Denver over the Union Pacific at about a. n. on May 9.
 There are few important places to be passed through on that road until Oma- ha is reached. Night will have fallen by that time. according to the schedule. and the trip across Iowa will be made in darkness and no stops will be made except those that are absolutely neces- garS.

Rig New York Meeting.
 New York. April 27.-The executive committee of the National Municipal League was instructed by resolution adopted by the league today to in vestigate the relations between the city and public service interpretations and to make any recommendations ap- propriate.
 Dr. Edward W. Hartwell. city sta- tistician of Boston, chairman of the leagues committee on uniform mu- nicipal accounting and statistics re- commended by John R. Commons of the Indiana State University. who proposed a plan or State supervision of city accounts by a permanent audit ing department. Another object Dr. Hartwell said. was to control the form of municipal accounts and financial reports and to make them uniform. The Ohio and New York laws he said followed closely the ideas of the na- tional municipal leagues committee. Dr. Hartwell said the reports of twelve cities including New York, Baltimore, Chicago, Boston and Roches- ter had most closely approached the committees ideas.
 Prof. Frank J. Goodnow of Colum- bia University read a paper on ''The administrative aspects of State central controk"
 The nature anu dlIflS VI otttC COIA~ trof' was the title of paper by Le- grand Powers of the census bureau at Washington.

OGDEN AND LOW SPEAK
ADDRESSES AT MEETING OF SOUTH
 ERN EDUCATIONAL CONVENTION.
Students of South Carolina Heard Dis- tinRuIshed Men Speak on Educa- tiOnal and Moral Subjects at
 Chapel Exercises.

Columbia S. C., April 27.-The morn ing session of the eighth annual con ference for education in the South was given up to the conference of South ern State Superintendents of Education, this being one of the features of the big conference.
 The most interesting feature of the morning was the rather impromptu symposium in the chapel of the South Carolina College at s:45 this morning, the speakers heing Mir. Robert c. Ogden, Hon. Seth Low, Dr. s. clairMc- Elway and pr. F. A. Alderman. The students of the college were gathered fin the chapel for the morning exercises which were varied by these exercises.
 MT. ogden said that although he was the president of an educational move- ment, yet he was remarkably ignorant for his life had been lived in a prosaic occupation and he was only a plain American business maIL That there was a growing demand for educated men in the business world he had no doubt as no work is so well done that 1t cannot be done better. And in the callings of life in which young people were brought into contact with other people 1t was even more valuable for the world demands intelligent and well informed men in every line of business
 Mir. Ogden called special attention to the common fallacy that modern col lege education did not fit a man to go into the business world. In his opln- ion the fact that education generally tended towards idealism was common datory in itself. Idealism and com mon sense carried into any business in the world would accomplish much.
 Mir. ogden was followed by the Hon. Seth Low who spoke on the attitude which a young man should have to- wards the various public questions of the day. It is too often the case, he said that men form their ideas of things and then go to work to find the facts which sustain those theories. ignoring those that are not in accord with them. He advised the young men to get first their facts and base their ideas upon these.
 Mir Low laid special stress on the college education as 1t generally pro- duced open mindedness and breadth of thought. These qualities, he said, were commendabIe in all walks of life and were responsible for much of the advancement of the world today.
 At the superintendents conference the State Superintendents of the fol- lowing States were present: South Carolina. North Carolina, Georgia. Ala bama. Louisiana. Texas, Tennessee and Arkansas. Each of these spoke on different phases of the recent progress of education fin the Southern States.

Mnnf Wntch Lanan.

St. Petersburg, April 27.-The Novoa Vremya calls attention to the speech of John Hays Hammond before the Acadamy of Political Science at Phila- delphia, April 8, as being the utter ances of a friend of President Roose- welt and as constituting a note of warn ing to Japanophiles in America and England, both politically and industri- ally.
 During the course of his remarks. MT Hammond, among other things. said that Japan's position commercially. by reason of the suzerainty she will estab- fish over Korea. would render her the most formidable competitor of the United States in the Far East, and added:
 Americas interests in this respect will undoubtedly run counter to those oe Japan. Japan is the only nation, as view 1t. which can seriously compete with us for commercial supremacy in that part of the world. The contest will undoubtedly be a bitter one, not only because of our conflicting commer- cial interests, but aggravated by those racial antiquities even now agitating our Pacific coast States.
 If Japan secures a war indemnity from Russia. a large portion of this un- doubtedly will s~ expended on increas- ing her fleet.
 '"The war involves, then, that we and Great Britain also must maintain for midable naval forces with strong Pacific bases and that the most intimate rela- tions must characterize the diplomacy of the two great English-speaking na- tions."

 Secretary Loeb returned early today from the camp where he conferred with the President all of yesterday.
