Dick Emmons. Both had narrow escape from party ot SUCK Indians, who were numbering the whites for loot, and number of whom were sfterwsrd tried and hung. Win ter before last Bishop Rowe made a mush of 2OO0 miles, visiting many of the remoter missions of the church and founding hospital and mission at the then newly discovered diggings at Fair banks

 port Themselves.
 The new shirt waist Is known by the cut of its cuff and the turn of Its col lar, and, unlike Its prototype of several seasons, it fits to perfection.
 The main features of the new shirt waist are short shoulder seams, the lack of droop below the elbow and the deep cuff when a cuff Is used at all.
 The more elaborate waists faSten in the back with tiny pearl or linen but tons caught with loops, The former style of tucking or plating the shir' from shoulder to waist has been reyiv- ed, and, although there Is no return to arm seams in the advanced models, the underarm seam Is shaped to t1t the figure.
 The sleeve is full, but with trig aud trim fullness. The shoulder seam slants a little toward the back instead of being straight.
 Hand work Is reserved this summer for the lingerie shirt waist of sheer handkerchief linen, which does not ad- init of many trips to the laundry. On the heavier waists squares of finely

 The pretty waist pictured is of ori' ental lace mounted over white china silk slip. An odd little touch Is given the bodice at the waist line by rows of shirring beginning on each side of the slightly bloused front. A fan oi plaited lace falls over the short pufed sleeves, and the square neck is out lined with folds of violet ribbon caught at the corners with jabot of lace fas. tened with cabochon buttons made Of silk. These silk cabochons fasten the crossed ribbon girdle and bands about the sleeves. JUDIC CHoLIES.

In summer materials the many shades of brown worn SO successfully during the winter appear with a new beauty. Yellow, bun and tangerlne are also favorite shades In linen.
 The new sleeves will fit moro closely at the elbow than those of the winter. They will. however be broad and full at the shoulder, but held down with plaits or shirrings at the elbow.

REVIEW or PAST WEEK ON THE
 GRIDIRON.
Victory of Vanderbilt Dampens Ardor of Alabama-Auburn Team 10
 Showing Great Form.

The football victory of Vanderbilt over Alabama at Nashville Saturday eliminated all chances. however mea- 10 have an undefeated season. From the accounts of the game. however. the chance are .ys prsht ths asf dsf successful football years in the his- tory of the Tuscaloosa institution.
 Auburn showed great form in run ming over the Marion Cadets and pill ever weak the Marion team may have been. and Marion has one of the very best prep school teams in this section of the South, it takes great foot ball machine to pile up such a score in fifteen minute halves. Auburn supporters are accordingly jubilant clashes with Auburn in November. that the wearers of the orange and blue will give the Commodores great sur prise. While Auburns has not yet played a game of any significance, re- ports that have gone abroad on the practice form are to the effect that Donahue has a squad 20 per cent fast Wh he s of suisa snd Jones, the big Birmingham boy, who was picked as an all Southern tackle by appearing on the campus in his football togs Saturday. Jones should be in even greater form this year than the season previous ana SnOul0 ne De. there are not more than one or two tackles that can stop him.
 The new men Holly. Neal. Booth and others seem to be doing good work and when Auburn plays her first game with Clemson, these men should be in great playing form.
 Clemson has always had good squad but it will be surprising if they are able to hold Auburn down to one or two touchdowns.
 Tech drubbed Georgia Agricultural Scnool Saturday to the tune of 54 to 0, but no possible line can therefrom be gained on Heisman's squad. Tech has a very easy schedule this year. Heisman has either been very un- lucky or very astute in leaving such teams as Vanderbilt, Auburn, Sewanee important game is against Alabama and this will probably he his hardest game with the exception of the. Cum berland contest In holding the Van derbilt team to one touchdown in the second half of Saturdays game. Leav- enworths squad has shown conclusive ly that the lamentably weak defense of previous years has been improved: Alabama has only had about week of real practice while Vandy has been on the field for over month. Ala bama although vastly outweighed, was able to make gains through the Van- derbilt formations and with two or three weeks more of hard work should be able to give any team a tussle. Their next game is Saturday with the A. & M. College of Mississippi. This game should be Alabama's.

 The trip was taken under the most favorable auspices" said the congress- man. The fact that the Secretary or War and the Presidents daughter headed the officiel party was poten- tial to open wide every avenue Of in- formation in respect to the Far East This gave us an opportunity to study Pattern conditions and problems upon the ground floor.
 '.While I greatly appreciated Gov ernor Taft's invitation to become a member of the Congressional Commis- oion, on his recent itinerary to the Philippines, I would not have felt jus tiffed, owing to the large per nonal pecuniary outlay, in accepting the same but for my profound con cern over the Chinese boycott, as an efBcfent factor in reducing the price of Southern cotton. I went to China mainly to study this question.
 Notwithstanding the ract that Pres idant Roosevelt, with characteristic zeal, has entered upon a settlement of Chinese grievances by requiring the immigration officials to interpre' the Chinese exclusion act in such man. ner as to show the widest and heart fest courtesy towards all their mer- chants. teachers, students and travel CTS. who may come to the United 9tates. as well as towards all Chinese of5iciais or representatives in any gov ernmental capacity, yet it cannot De denied that in spite of this prompt executive action the boycott of Amer ican goods Is going on fiercely in the southern provinces of China, from Tienstin around to the Federated Malay States and to the Straits settlements;
