REPRIEVE REFUSED
ST. PAUL MURDERER

Attorneys for William Williams, the
St. Paul murderer, who is to be hanged
next Tuesday morning, spent hours yes
terday with Governor johnson urging
him to grant reprieve. John O'Gor-
man, the juror, who made affidavit, that
the trial was a farce, also urged the
governor to take such action. AS the
State board Of pardons has considered
the case fully, and has declined to
interfere, and as no new evidence has
been presented, the governor will not
do anything further.
William Clark, a st. Paul shoemaker,
says he knew Williams when he was a
boy living in the East End of London,
and he believes the parents are still
living there - - y =

taught the art of making this lace in order to keep up the supply.
 The new cluny, especially in lingerie gowns, where its decacy and fneness show with charm ing effect is in greater favor than ever. Many of the newest waists have touch of it somewhere often in medaons set in with fine handwork or outlined, elhaps with rufde of German valen- ciennes. gain it is used with half-inch venise insertions, the venise medallions are used on cluny background, the cluny patterns are intro duced in the vense allovers.
 In fact, this is a year when lace is merged into embroidery and embroidery into lace in an intri- cate fashion that defes description. We have batiste designs heavy lowered nets, or inserts of lace in the batiste.
 One fascinating inSertion, in the broad bands so desirable this spring to around waist, had flowers embroidered in pearl yarn on flmy net the edges finished with narrow bands of canvas mingled with venise lace pattern. Another has large star shaped flowers heavily embroidered on rather coarse hexagonal meshed net.
 The fine, sheer princess laoes are lovelier than ever In this also several sized and shaped meshes are seen in one insertion, or it is combined Il cluny It is great favorite as trimming hut more particularly for entire dressy waists or cowns--of which every woman must number one at least in her summer wardrobe.

One piece of venise was such exact copy of the famous old rose pattern that it puzzled any but an expert to tell it was not real
 new touch is given to these laces by intro- ducing color into the designs This is done with an acid, and it is said the delicate tints-blue. pink. lavendar and green-nay be safely washed
 The craze for whole lace gowns-and 1t is craze-has brought in many embroidered nets In white, ecru and black. These less closely GOV. cred than formerfy-often. indeed in very detached designs-whe the coin spotted net, in spots rang ing from the size of pin-head to silver quarter, are in high favor.
 Equally good the plain cotton brussels, frequently called wash blonde. These are usually made up with insertions, rufies or medalions-or all three--of German valenciennes or venise.
 As for valenciennes, nothing can depose It from its high place in popular esteem Almost every gown has touch of it--especially often the Ger man--if it is but ruehing. ~jy the way, marrow edges of this lace now come ready rutied on bands to be sewed in the neck and sleeves

NHOULD you have bit of old lace, if it is but
 your grandmother's "tucker," yellow with \ y age, get it out and put it to use; for this IS
 to be not merely season of lace, but of real lace.
 That has discouraging sound, has it not9 But do not be cast down. If your purse will not permit of the real thing, you can find innumerable imita- tions, fine and flmy and really artistic in design, to delightfully."- fill its place.
 One thing is certain, however: lace you must bave-two or three different kinds, often, on the same gown. It is employed in every conceivable way, sometimes with daring, even startling, effects
 The first choice for many people, barring the more expensive real faces, such as duchess and rose point, is ever the Irish point, which is par tcularly good on the soft fabrics much in vogue for snrirg gowns One of it's chief recommenda- tons besides great beauty of design is that it will wash so we'll that it does not require to be sent to professional cleaner.
 The baby Irish, with its fine picot mesh and beavv Pompadour roses and other flowers, is prob- ably even more popular. It is found in insertions and edgiugs of all widths and is most beautiful in the all-over for waists.
 The real Irish lace, as every one knows, is crocheted bv the peasants in the south of Ireland The new French variety, which is especially good for silks and light woolen gowns, is extremely showy and stylish.

 W plest sort of dresses, cut low as to neck and short as to sleeves. Those little dresses all the year round, even when the weather dropped to and below.
 The fashion, if fashion it was, has co7ne back to of late years, but with the difference that it is applied only to summer dresses although they are often turned into winter ones by the addition of a guimpe, under which fannels of varying weights may be safely concealed. And guimpes by the way are mighty satisfactory things to have along when the occasional chill days strike town countryside.
 Even when the dress is high-cut all the way m to the throat-the choker is low and comfort able, or a round collar edged with frill, takes it's place.
 Sleeves take dozen short forms, and the loose tunic sleeves are especially popular. They end at the elbow, and are made, perhp ps, even cooler by being slashed up the outside, the two parts held open by bands of the material, which stretch from side to side the open space.
 Long sleeves rarely seen, except, of course, in the case of delicate little mortal who has to be sheltered from the merest breath of air.
 The single puff may end in straight narrow bandcuff or ia i. rahie. or in the pretty upon the sleeve; but whichever way you make them, they must be loose enough to slip up and down the chubby elbow without binding the arm anywhere.
