Prevailing Styles of the Season

Gray is in highest favor, this quiet
color pushed into the foreground:
London smoke. nickel, gull, the terms
used to describe the quietest tones Of
the unobtrusive color-the quietest
and most favored And white is the
choice for combining with the gray,
the result attaining what some one
speaks of as grave chic" soft
gray broadcloth of richest satin sheen.
is worn with a waist OF white net, and
the hat a gray panne whose trimming
Is. single yellow rose and one white
plume The quiet elegance is charm
ing, all strong contrast avoided.
In neckwear there is shown liking
for combining heavy and light materi-
ais, a heavy lace with fine net, very
pretty chemisettes come in this style,
and are worn unlined. The stores
offer undersleeves of net, both lined
and unlined, and the shortsleeved
lady, if she have enough money, may
easily solve the problem of piecing out
the arm covering. A cream net ap-
pears to be preferred, and the sleeves
as rule are not elaborately trimmed;
bit of shirring of the net. the use OF
a row or two of lace. OF course these
can be made at home satisfactorily
and at small cost.
A pretty negligee is indispensable in
my lady's wardrobe, and the one here
illustrated is simple and pretty. 1t is
made of yelling and bordered with a
rather broad band of ribbon, and cut
with double handkerchief points, the
sleeves formed of the upper ones. At
the neck is a broad collar Of heavy
lace, and large soft bow fastens the
dainty garment. The ribbon may be
of the washable sort. or tackled on so
it can easily be removed when the
sack needs washing.
Though we have reached the point
where we wonder we ever could
have liked anything but the
long, slender waist, we are
called upon to contemplate very
different lines, the Josephine dress
with the waist way up under the arms.
In the course of time we may grow &C.
customed to it again, but it will take
some hard effort. The dressmakers
say we shall have to, that the short,
WASTED Josephines and high-waisted
Directoire styles are to oust the low
bust and dip belts. The Empire coats
have not proved so universally popu-
lar as prophesied, and we think 1t
quite possible that the Josephines and
Directories may be classed with the
other much exploited style.
There are, to be sure, some very
beautiful Empire gowns to be seen
among evening costumes. One lovely
model was of citron-yellow panne EN-.

narrow band of dark fur. The short

Republicans Held Meeting at Roose-

Last Mght--MuCh Enthusiasm.
URGED VOTERS TO TURN OUT.
Old Bridge Young Men Urged by
Democrats to Form a Club and
Watch for Bribery at Polls.

The democrats held an enthusias-
tic meeting in the Town hall at Old
Bridge last night. George S. Silzer
and other democratic candidates
spoke. The hall was packed. men
even sitting in the windows. Thorn
as Hagerty opened the meeting with
a brief address, speaking of the for
nation of young mems clubs
throughout the county. His speech
was short and interesting, and he
was loudly cheered at the finish.
Albert T. Kerr also spoke of the
good work TO be done by these clubs
by having eight or ten men at ev-
cry poll to prevent bribery at the
election. He was tremendously ap-
plauded.
DR.. William e. Ramsay was the
next speaker. He spoke on boss con-
troll throughout the county. Also on
the shifting of voting machines
against the will of voters. He claimed
wherever there was any show for
democrats. voting machine was
placed, so as to help along the re-
publican ring"
Mr. Ramsay did not denounce the
machine, but he blames Boss
Strong for placing them to handi-
cap the efforts of the people. He
claims the people cannot vote at will
on these machines as most do not
it.
George S. Silzer, democratic can
didate for senator, was next intro
duced. He received an ovation and
spoke of Jackson's record in the
senate. He told how he voted for

VICE RAIDS
AND POLICE
TRANSFERS
New York Is Having Trouble Of
Her Own Along With Hottest
PoliCaI Campaign on Record.

NEW YORK, Oct. 26:-While Po-
lice Commissioner Bingham was an
nouncing the changes in the police
force, making one of the greatest
shakeups the department has ever
had, DR.. Parkhurst and officials OF
the Society for the Prevention OF
Crime were raiding alleged illegal
resorts in the Tenderloin.
At an early hour Robert McClin-
took, superintendent of the society,
accompanied by twelve men from a
private detective agency, invaded the
the head of Police Captain Schlott-
man. After the second raid was
made the detective attached to the
precinct got busy and four other
raids were made by them. One of
the society's raids was on the same
house that ten minutes before had
been entered by police detectives.
More than one hundred prisoners
were taken to the Tenderloin police
station, mostly women. Professional
bondsmen reaped ante-election har-
vests such as have not been known
in years. More than three-quarters
of the prisoners were bailed out by
Bob Nelson or his lieutenants.
According to McClintock all the
houses entered in the raids have been
known to him for more than four
months.
The shakeup consists of the trans
fer of So police captains, including
every one in the greater city with the
exception of Herman w. Schlottman.
the present czar of the tenderloin.
Captains who have commanded
precincts where the white lights blaze
were sent to the rural sections of
the Bronx, Queens county and Staten
Island, while captains who had for
gotten what a street car looked like
were brought back to the city. Bing-
hams order followed a two hours
conference with Mayor Mcclellan.
Politics in a way are responsible
for the shutting of the captains. In
past years police captains have been
transferred just before election, but
never on such a scale as today's re-
arrangement. One noticeable fea-
ture was the fact that the half dozen
captains known to be close friends
of Timothy d. Sullivan and who were
given good posts several months ago
when the mayor and big Tim" were
pulling together, drew the dullest
kind of residential precincts in the
new assignments.
Captain Schlottman, who stays at
the tenderloin station, is a hard
working, reliable policeman. He has
not done wonders in keeping the sec
tion orderly, but under his command
the tenderloin police have been dill
gent, and the district has furnished
no police scandals.

Washington Hall a Scene of
Beauty and JOlIity at Second
Annual Affair.

Looked Prettier Than Last Night
Confetti Fell in Steady Stream
from Suspended Parasols During
Snow Waltz--Flag Waltz Feature.

One of the most brilliant and spec-
tacular affairs ever held in this city
was that of last night when Washing
ton hall was the scene of the second
annual ball of the Raritan Club. So
many striking features marked the
affair that it was stamped by un-
bounded approval with distinctive
ness all its own.
Washington hall never appeared to
greater advantage, the decorations
being superb. They were Japanese
in character and the splendor baffled
adequate description. The walls
ceiling, stage and balcony were
draped and hung with tapestries and
bunting Of Oriental design, making
the nall appear like the palace of
some far-eastern potentate. The dec
oratlons We're by the Laggren con-
cern, of Elizabeth.
Two attractive features were the
snow waltz and flag waltz. The for
mer was the seventh dance in the first
part, about eleven o'clock. The illu-
sion of falling snow was given by a
steady shower of white confetti.
which fell from large Japanese par
asols suspended from the ceiling.
The parasols were gently rocked to
and fro by means of cords, and the
confetti fell increasingly for five min
utes or more, until every dancer was
covered whit white and the floor was
literally covered. To avoid getting
the confetti particles down their
necks, the gentlemen turned their
coat collars up, thus unconsciously
giving the snowstorm illusion an add
ed touch of reality.
The flag waltz, the sixth dance in
the second half of the program, was
also a delightful feature, a multitude
of tiny national flags falling from a
huge Japanese parasol over the CEN
tire of the dancing floor. Twenty-four
dances made up the program The
music was furnished by the Gutman
band.
Refreshments were served at long
tables in the balcony and also in an
anteroom on the lower floor.
Every detail was managed with
the utmost attention and every feat
ure was f1awless in conception and
execution, and reflected upon the fol-
lowing officials: Floor manager,
