American women at least will be moro
sensible, and show their independence
in fashion, as well as other matters.
The question to lace or not to lace holds
in its answer health or disease.
The Princess gown as an evening toll
lette Is gaining in popularity here as
well as in Paris. In these robes rather
short-waisted effect seems to be aimed
at in order to lengthen the line of the
skirt, which gives grace and height to
the figure. For these gowns lace, the
pattern fitted to the form, and spangled
nets. made to look seamless, are much
| liked, but chiffon and mousse1ine velvet
in light evening Shades are worn a Ia
| Princess by quite young women. The
| rich effect of these gowns is still further
enhanced by deep berthas of rare lace,

$FHE first thing that arrests the at

of fashionables is the lovely
light-colored or white boas OF
plumy ostrich feathers, pillows of these
downy things, with good sprinkling OF
marabout. over the long fur-lined
evening wraps these feather boas are
warm enough, and they are lovely enough
to be retained in the ballroom.
The next conscious sensation is an eff
feet of height among the beautifully
gowned crowd, and we realize that this
is due to the aggressive but always
charming hair ornament worn alike by
matron and debutante. One can trace
this revival to the general trend of the
modes, the little Empire wreaths of rose
buds and the coronet of silver or be-
jeweied leaves and flowers harmonizing
with the costume adaptations of that
period. All kinds of flowers are initiated
in rolled satin ribbon, from tiny forget
me-nots to the symmetrical dahlia; but
the daintiest are the roses and buds of
chiffon all glittering with dewdrops. Then
there are high standing aigrettes held
by jetted and spangled wings and but
terf1ies. Many of these pretty trifies are
easy enough to make at home, one girl
making butterflies, leaves and flowers in
lace work, using chenille for braid, and
gold or silver thread. The. silver leaf
coronet is very easily arranged, and the
ribbon or chiffon flowers are not beyond

But a great many women, even among
the wealthy. are more practical in their
selection of materials for evening wear.
and by far the largest proportion of
gowns are of soft supple silks, satins
and crepes in all the delicious shades that
look their loveliest under the brilliant
light for which they are intended; the
useful, graceful crepe de chine in its new
double width oneseamo form, being the
favorite material with many. Lace is
greatly employed as trimming for these
frocks, alternating with hounces and

with garlands or. clusters of delicate blos-
SONS, roses being, as always. first choice.
In Paris what is known as French
blonde, is well liked; it is a delicate silk
lace, dyed to match the color of the
gown, its texture blending admirably with
silk fabrics.
Where the "period" idea is well carried
that is very picturesque; there is such a
that no woman needs be unsuitably
gowned.
The eighteenth century adaptions con-
tinue to grow in favor here, having been
for some time firmly rooted in Paris; and
they are certainly gaining distinction BY
reason of twentieth century needs and
art. The form must be well corseted, sc

the full sleeve showing puffed cuffs un-
der the hand ruffle. There is wide
girdle of velvet on fitted boned founda-
ton; little loops and buttons of the vel
vet trim the 'front.'
A New Blouse Suit for 1905.
This smart suit is developed in wood
brown chiffon broadcloth, the trimmings
being OF darker brown velvet. The treat
ment of the front panel is novel, with its
four flat tucks and full founce to the
feet. The skirt is fitted smoothly over
the hip with stitched plaits, giving ample
fullness around the hem, which is faced
up with velveteen binding. The deep yoke
and cuffs are. stitched with, many rows
OF machine stitching, and. the full front
shows a vest of white embroidery on vel
vet A smart touch is the large silver
buckle that fastens the wide girdle. and
the chased silver buttons that hold the
tabs.
A New Promenade Costume.
Entirely novel in design is the long
coat of dull blue ladies' cloth as fine and
soft as velvet The skirt of the coat is
fitted to the hips with graduated stitched
platfs; the full blouse being set on bar
stitched seamless shoulder-pieees and held
in at the waist by a girdle Of darker vel
vet The Hat collar and deep revers are
of velvet, finished with line of silvered
cord. The vest is of the cloth cut in one
with the coat. The very full sleeves are
shirred in at the armsize, and below the
elbow arranged in double puffs with deer
velvet cuffs. The skirt is plain plated
the plaits stitched down to well below the
hipline.

Yoke Collar for Afternoon Wear.

Yoke Collar for Afternoon Wear.
Yoke-shaped collars easily convert a
plain waist into a sufficiently dressy af-
fair for an afternoon reception or even
ing at the theater. They are to be found
in lace, in needlework, or like this ex-
ceptional model, combination of both,
on ground of sheer lawn. They are seen
also of silk with insets Of lace. and beau
tifully embroidered. The separate yoke
and cape collar have great vogue just
now.
Elegant Stole Cape of Black
Chiffon.
The chiffon boa easily takes the place
Of fur and feathers as spring approaches;
there is a good deal of warmth in these
charming wraps. They are made in white
as well as black, and also dainty colors
to harmonize with costumes. This model
is particularly new and pretty, the ruff
fes being arranged in rose design, with
fluffy ruf1ed-edge founce; this long
stoles end in ruffled hounces of accordion
plated chiffon.
The delightful, pretty evening hat is Of
shirred point d'esprit, with full-hlted
ruffles of edging to match; puff crown of
pink panne, and sprays of pink and sill
yer flowers.
New Triple Skirt and Bolero Coat.
This elegant costume is Of dull blue
chiffon cloth in very light weight, the

tucks over the hips, and full flare skirt
below trimmed with gathered ruffles and
stitched folds. Velveteen protects the in

Tampering With Jurors VIII Be Stop
ped When Men Are Punished for
Doing II
Statesville Landmark.

StdteSNllle Landmark.
Tampering with jurors is getting to
be entirely too common i'm North Car
oiina. Some years ago an important
murder case was tried in a nearby
county and it was charged and not
denied that the defendant, a man of
means, had. through agents, canvassed
the entire county, and that the senti-
ment of every possible juror was
known. AS a result under the lati-
tude allowed the defence i'm selecting
jurors. the defendant was promptly
acquitted. II is believed that SINH
lar canvass was made in another
county, where a prominent citizen was
recently tried for murder. and he was
promptly acuitted. 1t is easy to see
that this sort of thing will naturally
result in downright bribery. When
the damage suit case of Gattis VS..
kilgo was put on trial i'm Wake Su-
perior Court this week r. y. King, a
regular juror, when questioned said he
knew nothing about the case from
the newspapers because he could not
read: but that a man had called at
his farm ten days before. told him all
about the case and asked him to help
Kilgo out" He rave the name of this
man as ex-Sheriff Rogers, of Wake
From this it is seen that some can
yassing had been done for jurors in
this case. We repeat that this thing
is growing in North Carolina and un-
less something is done to stop it the
last semblance of justice will have
departed from the courts, and the
Lord knows there is little enough now.
Presently no case will e tried on its
merits 1t will depend entirely on
which side can get the most of their
men on the jury.
