HAS THE BIRD FLOWN
Anxious Creditors Looking for
R. w. Warren.


Many persons are feeling of their
pocket books and looking in vain for
X. w. Warren, manager Of the Audi
torium, which was leased from the
Fraternal Hall association a short
time ago by Warren & York for the
period Of one year.
1t is reported that Warren has left
the city for good, carrying with him
goodly portion Of the worldly
goods of others, but many OF his
friends discredit the idea, and be.
lieve him to be on a pleasure trip 20
Spokane. It is known however that
before he left, and especially during
the latter part of the week, he Dor.
rowed to the extent Of his credit and
then issued checks on one or two Of
the local banks where he had no
funds to pay them. He even had
several of the prominent men OF the
city endorse checks for him which
have not been cashed. He also re-
ceived a number Of checks from
other parties which have not been
presented at the bank. His trunk,
which he kept in room rented
from Fred Stevens, was removed TO
the Auditorium Friday and has not
been seen since. The extent Of his
debt is not known but it is estimated
that it will reach into the three fig-
ures. Friday evening he visited the
Hotel Idaho bar and exhibited a roll
of bills.

Fashion Fads of Feminine Fancy

are fashioned from a sheer French main
sock or batiste, all handmade, and elab-
Grated with hand embroideries.
However, for the woman who Is at all
clever with her needle, the paper-pattern
houses are a boon and a blessing. One
can purchase a paper pattern of really
good design In those combinations for 10
or Is cents; and with the help OF a
seamstress for arlington there must not
be a wrinkle in the finished article when
worn-a very good garment can be turned
out for comparatively little. Where hand
work Is liked 1t can readily be used
since the cut Is Of the circular kind and
the seams but few. In the shops even
the machine made kind are still expen-
sive: and where economy Of money rather
than of time is an object 1t will pay well
to make them up ones self.
Colored shoes are more than fad this
summer; they are q perfect furore. 1t Is
no uncommon thing nowadays Tor the
dyeing- houses to receive a bundle or
ostrich tips for the hat, ribbon for trim
ming long gloves. silk stockings and white
shoes, all to be dyed to the one tint and
to match. In fact, this season Is hay
time and harvest for the expert dyer, for
the tints in each and every department
of the wardrobe are expected to match
to a miracle. The shoes seen on the side
walk are in best taste when they follow
the darker tones, but for house and even
ing wear every shade of the rainbow, and
q few more besides, are in order.

number of handsome bags from exquisite
ribbons Of sash widths. or else from
pieces Of good old brocade. These, she ex-
plains, are staircase bags, an explanation
that usually involves still another ex-
PLANTATION to follow, SO that their intent
may be made plain.
In her home, she says, the balustrade
Is broad one of old mahogany, and since
the drawing room Is on the second floor
all Of her guests and callers have to
ascend and descend the stairs. OF course,
the hand Is placed on the broad balus-
trade in going up and down, and since
delicately colored gloves are in vogue
the slightest trace of dust upon the balus-
trade will show on the gloves. Hence
she makes those beautiful bags, one for
the top and one for the bottom of the
staircase. and inside there is q hemmed
square OF China silk in each. When any
member of the family goes up or down
this buster is taken out and run along the
balustrade and then put in the bag at
the other end. So her reputation for care
full housekeeping does not suffer.
So successful has the idea proven in her
own home that she is making similar bags
as gifts for various acquaintances; and
since the articles are delightfully."- quaint
and ornamental in themselves they will
doubtless prove highly acceptable to their
recipients.
Laundry bags are no longer the plain
unitarian receptacles for soiled linen
that they once were. Nowadays they are
as ornamental and decorative In outward
appearances as Is consistent with good
laundering qualities. For the bag as well
al its contents must withstand the test Of
the washtub.
Fancy chintzes, French cretonnes,
linens, art tickings. and even embroidered
and braided denims are used. 1t Is quite
a complicated affair. the latest manifesto
ton in this useful article. In fact. 1t Is
a series OF bags in itself. The original
model was seen at one of the woman's
exchanges, and was made in English
chintz and bound with wash ribbons.
There was a deep bag of oblong size.
mounted upon a wooden roller, In which
the screw hooks were fastened. This
opened with a slit in the middle and is
intended for the larger pieces. Below
this slit, and on either side there are
square patch pockets applied, one for
stockings and for neckwear; while
the lower end of the bag has still another
pocket stretched across 1t, this for hand
kerchiefs and such like little odds and
ends. The ribbon binding an a fluffy
bow at each corner of every pocket
makes quite a decorative article OF the
formerly homely washbag; and the fact
that the entire thing is washable makes
it all the more attractive to the p.ac-
tically minded.
Combination ungeries is the fad of the
moment. What with the long and IN

these, IL must be confessed, for the purse
of the wealthy few rather than for the
well-to-do many. The cult of the coat,
which has taken such strong hold upon
the fashionables, Is we'll expressed in those
expensive crochet arrangements. Those
fetching little garments are intended
rather as O finishing touch TO the toilette

they are supposed to afford Fashioned

ton to make them suit the average figure.
The best makers strive to keep at least
one girl in the workroom who is expert
with the crochet needle to make the aitera-
lions upon those extravagant little items
Where such Is necessary-and 1t Is usually
IN the shoulder and underarm parts-the
crochet hook Is sscalled into use rather
than the sewing machine. The connecting
stitches are cut away and the pieces of
the pattern caught together with the hook
and a few chain stitches run In to con-
meet them and make the garment the
right size. The latest fad is to have those
lined with a printed pompadour chiffon.

and their most attractive wares are
marked at prices which seem positively
absurd when one remembers just what
the very same things fetched few short
weeks ago.
To be sure, many of the best bargains
are remnants, but here Is where the girl
with a modicum of Imagination can plan
a wardrobe to meet the winters social
campaign for a fraction OF what her
Weather sister will have to pay. Gauzes,
mousselines, sheer, soft silks, ribbons OF
many kinds and characters. handmade
blouses and boleros, smart pieces of jew
elry and the like are all being cleared
out to make room for the new stocks.
Even the more staple articles Of fem
mime wear share in this general reduction.
Dainty handkerchiefs and still daintier
lingerie, auto wells, desk fittings. fancy
boxes for gloves and neck dressings,
ready-to-wear belts and girdles. ehemi-
settles in lace and embroidery, umbrellas
with fanciful handles and ornate mount
ings are but few of the things that one
can purchase for comparatively little just
now.
Small wonder 1t Is that the clever wom-
an with q small dress allowance finds 1t
a profitable venture to run up to town
for few days right in the middle of
the season. The many bargains that are
offered will make 1t possible for her to
accept many social invitations In the
present and the future that she might
otherwise have to forego, just for lack
of a fresh frock 10 wear.

as remain open, are offering stock for

for the hat alone just a few weeks back.
Summer frocks and hlmy blouses are
things that the best houses will almost

The Reign Of the Velvet Ribbon Fashion
Claims it in Every Department : The
Milliner Makes Effective Use of it. (

Velvet ribbons are the fad Of the mo-
ment On every hand one sees them
used, not with a hating discrimination,
but just as lavishly as the design Of the
garment or chapeau will permit without
the appea rance of overlooking.
The soft pile fabric has displaced every
other weave Of the ribbon loom. From
a plain and pure white on through the
entire gamut Of the color card there Is
not a tint or nuance of the mode that
is not duly and well represented in the
velvet weave.
On the sheerest Of handkerchief linens
and batistes, on through The dotted
swisses, the linens, the silk foulards and

is field for the velvet ribbon such as

Not that there is any heaviness In the
appearance of the frock or chapeau 80
trimmed. Quite the contrary. For those
new velvet ribbons are Of the panne or
der, finished with a conspicuously short
pile and pressed-as the name implies
between hot rollers to give them On ex-
ira glossiness Of surface.
The milliner makes most effective use
of those adjuncts to fascination In her
wares. In the earlier part OF the season
ii was the louisine and the satin ribbons
that held the center OF the stage, with
perhaps an occasional taffetas glace to
vary the monotony. But in the later de-
velopment II Is the velvet ribbon that
reigns supreme.
On those unsubstantial-iooking Neapoli-
tans and horsehair braids-though their
stability in wear well bellies their frivolous
and extravagant looking frailty-the vel

/. The vogue of those charming little
nothings that one throws carelessly
around the shoulders-your favorite shop

usually as "boars"-is on the increase

will meet the demands of fashion; and
when the double-faced velvet ribbon IL
used-usually black on the pile side and
some delicate tint on the other Ia SAITH
then the most exacting requirements OF
the mode have been complied with.
On the dainty little boleros that are to
do such manifold duty in the coming

its greatest and most effective field. Mas

duction of motifs of Irish crochet, en-
broidered and lace medalllons, or some
other note Of relief in the design.
Even In the dressier models this prefer
ence for the blouse is still apparent The
finest of chiffons and even malinette are
fashioned into blouses that show a we'll
boned and fitted lining of silk beneath.
In fact, in all those of dressy aspiration
this fitted lining is an indispensable item
To accord with the coming as we'll as
the current vogue, this silk lining Is to
be yelled with a single thickness of nous
seine de sole, this feature following tho
lines of the transparent blouse rather
than the skin-tight fit Of the lining itself.
Exquisite specimens of needlecraft are
displayed in those of sheer chiffon, in
which a wilderness of tucks, a forest OF
faggoting and a maze Of lace are cleverly
combined In an apparently simple scheme
of trimming. For example, there Will be
a yoke-a modishly shallow one, 1t Is
true-of bias folds of chiffon faggoted to-
gether after some intricate and -fanciful
design, In the meshes of which some nne

In the blouses, where set pieces of lace
are made to do duty for the more closely
fitted portions. Little bolero sides are
planted fat on the net or mousseline foun-
dations, a yoke is added to the top, and
all the intervening space is filed in with
Richelieu pleatings with the most fetch
ing results. Even on lace blouses those
little pleatings-any well-equipped trim

stock of them-are oftentimes used to
fashion the entire sleeve, the note of con-
nection between blouse and sleeve being
struck in the use OF the lace for a Gun
