Notwithstanding the general alarm
from Paris regarding small hats, there
are really quite as many large or
medium -sized as small. in all the best
millinery displays. Some French hats
are of the most pronounced type, as for
example on large shape, covered with
back velvet, are three ostrich plumes
al the front turning backward) one
white, second brown, and third
black, the end under a large chou of
brown velvet. Another large hat is
trimmed with grapes of three different
colors, with a mammoth rose at the
front. a white felt intended for a
young girl is faced with white corded
silk, the brim rolled over on the crown
at both sides, and directly across the
hat is a lengthwise cluster of grapes
in four colors, with a bunch of green
leaves at one side and pink rose at the
other. The grapes at the back droop
over the hair.
FeIts Are Favored
Brown felts are in high repute either
large or small, and the indentation Of
brims is carried to greater extreme
than ever. Roman stripes Gin ribbon)
on brown felts are very dashing, and
quite a small shape with an immense
bow of striped ribbon at the left side,
had a large quill similarly decorated
by chenille stripes across the quill. A
hat with clusters of light-hued grapes.
lace crown, and bows of ciel-blue
ribbon. might readily pass for a spring
hat, an( a pink felt with malinette
and pink roses on the low crown would
induce similar opinion. A small
pointed toque shows a ribbon trimming
and four gigantic roses. Pointed toques
will be favorites, and the mushroom
shape" will have it's following, but SO
bizarre are shapes and trimmings, that
almost all precedent is set at defiance.
Velvet, Felt and Ostrich Plumes
Plumes are the leading factors in
fall and winter millinery, both curled
and uncurled, the latter falling in some
cases even to the waist line. Broad
plumes make an elegant showing on
large hats (often in direct contrast)
and the extremes are thirty-five and
forty dollars apiece. 1t is in response
to natures coming hues that spas
modic attempt is made each season
to introduce yellow as a leading color,
and although in itself a beautiful hue,
its most successful use will be in COM
bination with brown of every shade.

MARRIED ELKS WIN GAME
Five Hundred People See Bachelors
Go Down in Defeat by Score
of is to II
Special to The Herald.

CpeCldl u lie
PASADENA, Sept. 16.-Amid the flut-
tering of feminine handkerchiefs the
ball team of the married Elks batted
out victory this morning on the local
grounds, near the Raymond hotel, win
ming from the bachelors of the order by
the close score of II to Is.
Clearly the feature of the game was
the masterful effort made by Peter
Orban to reach first base Orban had
batted one which was neither a mile
long nor foot high, and he attempted
TO outrun the sphere. Half way to first
he stepped upon his own foot and near
ly slid the balance of the distance
Recovering, Orban was able to hobble
the few feet remaining, and, even after
his accident, was declared safe. APP
plause because of the incident lasted
for several minutes, giving the trium-
phant player time to repair his clothing
and bind up his wounds
Gene Kohler pitched throughout the
game for the married men, while
Charles Knight caught. Fred Ryan
and Ed Abbott divided the pitchers
box for the bachelors, while Charles
Foy did the catching. Abbott batted
out home run, the only one of the
game. About 500 people Witnessed the
contest.
The Pasadena ball team played the
Tufts-Lyon aggregation at San Pedro
today and went down in defeat to the
tune of to 1. This drops the Pasadena
team from second to third place In the
league of amateur clubs.

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, Sept. 16.-E. T. Smith
and Harry Ransome it is charged ran
down an unknown man and woman,
running over the old man and intiictihg
serious injuries.
The affair took place at the junction
of East Colorado street and Huntiug-
ton drive In Lamanda Park at about
1880 o'clock this evening.
The old people were about to board
car for Pasadena when the men,
singing and shouting, came along in a.
wagon used by one of the local tele-
phone companies for repairing lines
and installing phones. There was no
opportunity for the old people to get
out of the way nor did the reckless
couple pause for an instant after pass
ing over the old man.
The conductor and motorner of the
Pasadena bound car saw the affair and
went to the assistance of the aged
couple. After placing the Injured man
aboard the car telephone message
was dispatched to the Pasadena police
and Policemen Coping and Schultz
were fortunate in meeting u friend in
an automobile, who quickly took them
to the corner of Colorado street and
Lake avenue, where they waited In the
hope OF catching the wanted men. In
few minutes the telephone wagon
came in sight, and the police quickly
sprung to the horses head and stopped
the vehicle
Smith and Ransome made no resist
ance, an dthey were quickly taken to
the police station, where they were
boxed for telng disorderly. smith was
rather abusive to the police who ar
rested him.
The horse attached to the vehicle
belongs TO j. B. Myers, who runs a
stake at Il! South Delacy s,reet. He
was notified to come and get the rig.
and he sent his son, who took charge
of the outfit,
The son stated that Ransome is his

WILL ASK COUNTY TO HELP
McAdam Would Have Supervisors
Help Pave Street in Newly An
nexed Pasadena
Special to INC Herald.

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, Sept. 16.-James Nc
Adam will probably put novel propo-
sition up to the board of county SUI
pervisors at it's next meeting. Mr. Nc
Adam is one of the most active of the
citizens of the East side that district
which recently became a part of Pasa =
dena through annexation.
The East siders are already circulat-
ing petition to have East Colorado
street asphalted from the old city
limits to the new, and APPARENTLY the
only stumbling block in the way is the
lack of cash in the Pasadena city treas
ury to pay for the street intersections.
Street intersections have to be paid
for either by the municipality or coun-
ty, while the property owners pay for
the balance of the paving. If the city
is short the cash, the improvement has
to go over until the city does have the
money to pay for it's share of the work.
Now the money paid this year for
taxes by the East side goes into the
county treasury, about $4,000 in all,
for the district through which it is
desired to asphalt. McAdam's scheme
is to try and get the county to pay for
the intersections out of this money
This will bring to the attention of
tne Supervisors the novel plan OF pay
ing for street work within the city
limits of freehold chartered city-a
proposition which involves nice legal
question.
The East side district has to pay a
tax OF about 40 cents on the hundred
dollars of valuation for road purposes
and the residents of that section argue
that, In spite of the fact that their
property is really inside of Pasadena,
they certainly have the right to have
the money they have paid into the
county road fund expended In their
district.
The proposition is likely to have a
warm champion in Captain C. d, Man
ming OF Lamanda Park, when he is
elected to the board of county super
Visors, even II 1t does fail at this time.
However, Captain Naming will not be
In office for many months and some of
the supervisors already state that they
will not favor the plan suggested TO
enable the asphalt pavement to be
extended,

in part:
THE CHI ch is not meant to be like

likened unto q living household in

and to every woman also, for the re-

What task has he given you? II
may be just to lie still and do nothing,
and that is the hardest task that God
gives to human soul. Apparently the
time is wasted, the days go by without
accomplishment. The soul, eager to be
of service, is fast bound by chains OF
the body and imprisoned in the dun
geon of the sick room. But we have
! need to learn that we may not choose
among the tasks.
God apportions the task, to each one
his work.
Again, some people think that they
are not doing anything for God simply
because they are attending to their own
business. Well, to mind ones own
business, seeing how few there be who
do it., is one of the most sane and valu-
able things one can do.
Such people are occupied in building

for two services a week, and then her.
metlcally sealed for six days In the

other tasks of the day. God has
already given to each one his work.
"All this is equally true of great
many men. 1t is frequently remarked
that church work is mostly done by
women. And it is true. Why? Partly
because it is work thafcan be best done
by women and partly because many
women are not so busy with other i'm

THE best church work that man
can do is to be thoroughly good man.
If he loves his wife and his children,
If he conducts a diligent, just and
honest business, If he behaves himself
like a good citizen. doing his duty as a
Christian in municipality and common
wealth, letting Is light shine in their

hand to help his brother, if he remem-
