There Is a certain fascination about the
jaunty little Elton coat suit which makes
the wearer seem doubly attractive. A
charming little suit is shown developed in
the modish black and white and trimmed
with straps of white. The sleeves are
long which will please the woman Of Pur-
titan descent, who likes her clothes to be
practical as well as fashionable, and the
neck is finished without a collar. The coat
can be closed so as to protect the chest
and ends at the top OF the high girdle
The skirt is circular, with a double in
verted box pleat In front and back. Flat
stitched bands of white trim the bottom OF
the skirt and are finished in points at each
side OF the center in front and back. A

THE SPOKANE.

New York laughed 200 nights at
Digby Bells droll humor and artis-
tic acting in his greatest comedy
success, Mr.. Pipp, in "The Educa-
ton of Mr.. Pipp," which makes it's
first visit to this city at the Spo-
kane tonight and tomorrow for ma
tinee and evening. The character
of Mr.. Pipp is that of a sympa-
thetic, quaint little old man of the
suddenly wealthy American class.
The natural humor Of the comedian,
combined with his artistic methods,
makes the character a delightful
stage creation.
The comedy records the ludicrous
experiences of the journey abroad
of family of the middle American
millionaire class, the Pipps of
Pittsburg. The mother, beside her
self upon the requirement of an i'm
mense fortune, seeks to wed her
daughters to foreign noblemen. The
father, inspired by his patriotism
and common sense, disapproves of
this plan, and delightful comedy is
furnished by his secret efforts to
defeat the scheme of the domineer.

Frank McCane, an expressman,
living at 1928 West Sprague avenue,
was held up along the Northwest
boulevard about 10 O'Clock last
night while returning from carrying
passenger to Nine Mile bridge,
where the Traction company is
building its power plant.
Two men stopped his team and
ordered him down from the seat.
They rifled his pockets of $3.50, the
amount of his fare. He says he
can identify one of the men wore
light colored overcoat and had
a hooked nose which showed when
his mask slipped down. The other
one was taller and bowlegged.

OLD MAN LEFT
HELPLESS IN
GUTTER

Patrolman Nelson, on duty last
night at the corner of Riverside av-
enue and Howard street, received a
hurry call from headquarters about
Z O'Clock to go to the lower part
OF Brownies addition on West Riv-
erside avenue, where a man was
reported badly injured lying in the
gutter In front of the home of H.
NJ. Richards, of the Washington
Water Power company. Fred
Schade and the officer at once
drove to Brownies addition and
found Willard J. Phillips, a G. A. r.
man, age 6S years. His legs had
given out on the long walk to his
home on the river front and he
had been lying there in his feeble
condition a long time. He was
lifted into the hack and conveyed
home, where his family was pro-
fuse in their thanks to your
Schade and the officer.
No one in the whole aristocratic
neighborhood had offered to pick
the old man up or pay him any
further attention than to call the
police.

WOMAN BLACKSMITH likESIT
BETTER THAN TEACHING SCHOOL

| LINCOLN, Neb., Oct. 19.-The
shop where Mrs. Philip P. Wilcox,
the woman blacksmith of College
View, Neb., spends the working day
swinging heavy sledges and shoe
ing horses shows at a glimpse that
1t is no ordinary "mithy." The two
story building is painted pretty
sky-blue. The upper story is the
home of the Wilcox family. The
smithy shows the touch of the wom-
An in its orderly arrangement, It's
clean windows, it's tiny boudoir
with looking glass, towel, soap and
rug on the floor.
Mrs. Wilcox does not possess the
build generally associated with the
village blacksmith. She is scarcely
five feet tall and weighs little
more than 100 pounds. The CONVEX.
sation and manner of the little
woman is gentle and refined, andzof
course, meyer thinks of swearing
even when everything goes wrong.
She is well schooled and has taught
in district schools.
Mr.. Wilcox is a swarthy man wi
a black mustache and hearty,
cheerful laugh. He neither drinks
smokes, chews nor swears. He Is
very proud of this fact and he is
prouder of his wife. During the win
ter he does as much of the work in
the shop as Mrs. Wilcox, but when
he is away for weeks at a time, she
easily carries on the business.
I'm not looking for any motor
iety," says Mrs. Wilcox. 81 took up
this business just because l liked
it. 1t was my husbands occupation
20 years ago when we were mar
ried, and | learned it from him. l
soon became so expert at it that l
kept the shop running during the
summer when he was away found

than l could teaching school and

was working in the railroad shops
in Ottawa, Kan, at that time. He
resigned theer because they wanted
him to work on the Sabbath" The

lists. Saturday is their Sabbath.

we're closed we did work at our own

the wood which farmer had
brought for wagon box repairs.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 19.-Warm
welcome awaits Mrs. Stephen P.
M. Tasker on her return from a
honeymoon trip that has few
parallels. With her husband she

who bid her farewell last spring

stunt recently that for injecting
thrills into the spectators who wit

dim horizon.
Soulen's Office is on the top floor

his "act" by falling from a window

a hundred wires that ran from
pole into the Offices of a telegraph
company, couple of floors below
There he lay suspended so feet

Soulen's act was not voluntary.
He simply lost his balance and he
doesn't care to perform the feat
again. He chung to the f1imsy

beneath and thrilled spectators

lions at him.
