REV. MR.. ABRAMS IN KEOKUK.
TKeokuk Gate City.l

Mr. Abrams once came to Keokuk
for the avowed purpose of closing the
saloons here. He was advised to con-
suit a leading local prohibitionists In
order to gain accurate knowledge OF
sentiment and conditions, and did SO.
The gentleman to whom he was d.
rected was leading citizen who has
given literally Of his time and money

honest, sincere man, who has proved
his faith by his works-and his pock-

all Mr.. Abrams had to say and inqufr-

he led the gentleman out Of his office,

ONE PEACE CONDITION.
Japan Would Limit Cars Navy to
Prevent War

1t was stated in diplomatic quarters In
Paris yesterday that among the conditions
of peace which Japan might ask would be
that Russia give a pledge to build no more
warships for a term of years. A diplomatic
official said that such a condition would be
the most effective means of assuring Japan
against Russia's carrying out her cherished
project of naval rearmament for the re-
newal of hostilities under better conditions
than those at present existing.
1t is well known that Russia contemplates
huge plan of naval rehabilitation. Ad-
miral Doubasoff, the head of the technical
board of the admiralty; Captain Clado,
formerly chief tactical officer under Vice
Admiral Rojestvensky, and other Russian
naval authorities recently have taken the
position that peace was desirable until
naval reconstruction could be completed.
This appears to have stimulated Japan's
diplomats to consider means of avoiding
peace that would be equivalent to no more
than a truce, during which Russia would
have time to forge an effective weapon, and
therefore the intimation is now given that
limitation of Russian naval armament may
figure as a means of assuring a prolonged
peace in the orient.

Effort to Hide Weightman Troubles.

Jones Wister's four daughters met in
Philadelphia, Saturday, and as a result one
was sent to plead with their mother to
withdraw from her proposed contest of
the Weighman will. Their plea was re-
fused and diplomatic relations between the
two camps have now ceased finally. The
daughters objected to the Weightman fam
lily skeleton being taken out and shaken be-
fore the public. That there is family
skeleton is admitted by one of the most
prominent members of the family now split
up by the S60,00O,00O left by the wealthy
chemist. The daughters of Mrs. Wister
knew that no compromise of the case is
possible. They had heard Mrs. Walker,
Weighmans daughter declare in their
presence that she would fight to the end
of the last penny of the fortune her father
left her rather than to yield 1 cent as a
result of Mrs Wisters suit. The daugh-
ters' view of the case agreed with that of
Mrs. Walker, yet they could not, without a
final effort, array themselves against their
mother.
William Weghmans will was drawn up
in favor of Mrs. Walker nine years before
his death. Less than one year before the
will made, however the millionaire
then eighty years old was taken seriously
i'll. His condition became such that the
members of his family admit that all hope
of saving his life was given up and the
physicians who were attending him said
that he could not recover. If he did re-
cover, they said, his brain would be af
fected. But Mr.. Weightman slowly recov-
cred,

Rev. George NJ Fiske, pastor of st. Ste

Gas Caused Brain Softening.

Without having regained consciousness in
seventeen days, Mrs. James H. Huestis died
in hospital Saturday morning. Her daugh-
ter Luella died there on Friday morning
after being unconscious for fifteen days.
Mrs. Huestis died of the same ailment as
her daughter, gas poisoning. They lived
in White Plains, and on March visited
New York. They stopped at the home of a
brother-in-law. Two days later they We're
discovered in their room unconscious, with
gas escaping from a jet They were re-
moved to the Presbyterian Hospital, where
doctors puzzled over the cases until the
daughter died. Coroner's Physician O'Han-
Ion performed an. autopsy, which showed
that the young woman had died from gas
poisoning. Saturday DR.. LIE Hane of the
coroners Office made autopsy on the
body of Mrs. Huestis and arrived at the
same conclusion. The hospital physicians
were sanguine of saving Mrs. Huestis after
her daughter died, the autopsy revealing the
true cause of her death, but they gave up
next day, when the mother began to sink
rapidly. AS a result of his autopsy Dr.
O'Hanlon concluded that the seat of con-
seriousness is in the Ienticular nucleus
which had softened and degenerated. In
the case of Mrs. and Miss Huestis the
autopsies showed that the effect of gas
poisoning was to produce fatty degenera-
ton and softening of this particular part
of the brain.

Lace there must be on ones lounging
robe If there is any desire to be fashion
able, and despite the quantities of this
effective trimming the lace is invariably
of an excellent variety, sometimes even
being real handwrought patterns, which
are worth several times the price of the
gown alone.
Lace bands and motifs combine in pro-
ducing negligees quite as charming as the
most fastidious could wish If the lace Is
fine and used with a reckless disregard
for expense the robe cannot help being
pretty, even though the mesh applications
are arranged in rather stereotyped designs
The garment shown in the accompanying
sketch escapes the ordinary by the intro
duction of soft puffs between the lace
entre-deux, and then the neck is gathered
up in rather a novel fashion. The pink
silk slip imparts a blush rose tint to the
sheer white mousseline outer part and
toward the bottom of the negligee the
dainty color to be seen, so that around
the foot the gown resembles full grown
rose.
,, There are two entre-deux of the waved
lace running all round the skirt with a
full puff of the white mousseline between
and another below the lower band and
heading the lace fiounce which trims the
bottom of the trained robe The NOUS
seine hangs full and straight from the
shoulders and down each side of the front
is strip of lace insertion which makes
point it's own width above the upper
horizontal band of trimming and then
reaches on around the back in undulating
lines. At each dip in this cross trimming
there is set in just above it a kidney shaped
motif made of the same lace pattern.
The neck is colarleSs, of course but in
stead of being cut out even slightly it is
gathered up about the throat and tied
with a soft mousseline scarf. narrow
band of lace finishes the edge of the neck,
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1905-03-27

and then comes a putting of the mousse
line like that seen in the skirt part of the
robe. This reaches about three inches over
the shoulders and is finished with another
strip of lace, upon which is fastened a
deep frill or bertha of the mousseline inset
with lace motifs. Instead of falling in
straight line around the shoulders the ber-
tina is caught up in shallow scalops with
a slightly longer one coming just over the
shoulders. From under this falls a dupli-
cate flounce which serves as a sleeve, COM
ing as it does to the bend of the arm and
being very loose and full.
Thin light washable silks make ideal
negligees. These are elaborately trimmed
with lace; sometimes they are embroid
cred and frequently the decoration is con-
fined to pin tucks and frills made Of the
same material. Peach blossom pink Is eA-
quisite in this material and so is chiffon
messaline, which possesses a sheen and lus
ter not to be duplicated in any other fab
ric. Deep lace capes and collars, as well
as dainty fchus are often sold separately
and used to give little variety to ones
negligeeS. Any of these accessories is be-
coming to the average woman and the
tichu is very fashionable note at the
present writing.

wearing of it more to the seclusion of her
own boudoir than do her English and
French sisters. The proof that it. is
growing more and more popular with the
fair sex is found in the increased demands
for loose and elegant robes, whereas a few
years ago tailoring and dressmaking firms
rarely turned their attention to the crea-
ton of anything so dishabille.
There is very little change to be noted
between winter and summer negligees, eN.
cept possibly in the greater number de-
manded for the latter season and an in
crease in those made Of batiste and wash
able silks. At present there is a pretty
fancy for Powered patterns, especially
those showing tiny pompadour wreaths and
quaint little sprigs of blossoms like old
fashioned prints. If the ground work Of
these is in white then the outer part of the
robe is mounted over a silken lining 10
match the tint of the flowers and there is
the inevitable lace bertha, which may be
draped in any one of hundred ways.
The latest introduces threading of black
velvet baby ribbon or wider pink or blue
chiffon satin, which is woven in and out
of the deep lace collar, and, after knot
ting at the breast, falls in long loops and
ends to within a few inches of the floor.
