AssessinR Cost of Paving.

The city council yesterday afternoon
held a session for the purpose Of inspecting
the recently completed paving on MINISTER
street and Fairview avenue and curbing
on Park avenue, and assessing the cost Of
same to the abutting property On Myns-
ter street it was found that the city would
have TO bear only about $500 and about
800 on Fairview avenue. on Park avenue
the property will stand the cost OF the
curbing, but when the paving is completed
the city, it IL expected will have to bear
considerable proportion of the cost.
The oouncilmen at last decided that the
approaches TO the bridge over Indian creek
at MINISTER street needed attention and
the committee on streets and alleys was
instructed 20 continue the cement walk be-
tween that bridge and the one on North
Main street and to put up a suitable rail-
ing in place OF the old tumble-down,
wooden fence which has done duty since
the bridge was constructed several years
ago.
The streets and alleys committee was also
instructed to renew the three crossings
on Broadway at Pearl street The cement
which has become badly worn in places
will be replaced with natural stone slabs.

Cbnnpion Cornhusker Die,

SIDNEY. Ia. oct, 25.--(special )--Charles
A. Rennack, who was Killed in a railroad
accident near Everett, Wash, was buried
last week at his old home In Shenandoah
In making announcement OF the fact some
newspapers referred TO him as the cham
pion oornhusker OF the world. This claim
f. erroneous. The facts are as follows: In
the fall OF 1908 SIr. Rennsck husked 81
bushels and sixteen pounds In ten hours. a
feat which up to that time had not been
equalled. But one year later, Rennaclr's
record was broken by Ora Hopkins of Ere
mont county, who husled 2i7 bushels and
twenty pounds in ten hours. The judges
and timekeepers were chosen from among
the most reliable citizens of the county
ard the feat was Witnessed by about 100
persons and as to the correctness OF the
record there is no doubt whatever. The
Shenandoah World a few days ago cor
rected the erroneous statement alluded to
above. Mr.. Rennack announced himself
last spring as the cornhusEer candidate for
the nomination for sheriff OF Page county.
but was badly beaten IN the primaries.

weight and very light colored gray
the summer girl wears a black and
white linen frock, white ground with
big black spots; made with Peter Pan
waist and neat untrimmed skirt. She
wears an immense black taffeta bow
in her hair and a white sailor with
black velvet band.
Few are the high stocks seen now
adays, the round Dutch neck taking
their place. A light-haired girl looks
well In olive green messaline silk,
lightened bit with Cluny lace; the
neck cut just low enough to be suit
able for the street and band of olive
wool, a shirt-waist of sheer white
stuff, a cool-looking, simple white hat,
thrown back from which and forming
a pretty background for face and hair,
is a green lace veil. Of morning
velvet about the throat, the band
fastening with an iridescent pearl
buckle.
A mother-of-pearl buckle is very
suitable for wash belt, and such a
buckle comes with a slide for the
back of the belt a good idea, wash
belts so apt to look mussy after one
wearing. In the popularity Of Princess
and corselet skirt, belts are not so
noticeable features of costumes as
formerly, but when worn should be
very carefully chosen, they give, or
take from, style as much as any dress
accessory.
Mitts have come to their own again
the wonder is they ever go out of
style, being so comfortable and yet
discreetly yelling the arm and pro-
tecting it from sun and soilure. The
long gloves having increased so in
price, the average woman seizes glad
ly upon the more economical mitt.
There are very pretty lace mitts and
lace gloves, these peek-a-boo hand
shuhe more admirable than the peek
a-boo waists that have Haunted their
foolishness so long.
One sees charming old-fashioned
looking Powered muslins; gray tissue
sprigged with moss rosebuds; white
lawn picked out in stiff little sprays
of corn flowers No colored ribbons
with these, please; the trimming, just

white null, introduced as necker and

pared. From without it is true that
the building looks sadly out of place
in the center of the beautiful grounds,
but within it is the finest residence,
no doubt, in the entire archipelago,
hence, when the position of he who
lives there is taken into considera-
ton, the name of palace.
Malacanan has some little history.
Until 1868 the Spanish governors gen.
eral had their official residence in
a palace situated in the walled city,
near the present rebuilt Catholic ca
thedral, but in connection with this
they had summer residence (if a
country house in a tropical climate
can be called such) in the suburb Of
San Miguel, where the palace of
Malacanan is now located. A ter
rible earthquake occurred in Manila
in 1868, which destroyed about two
thirds of the buildings of the city,
palace and the cathedral and Don
Rafael Echague, then governor gen.
eral of the island, had the summer
residence properly fitted up for per-
manent home. From that time forth
it was the official residence of all the
Spanish governors general, no less
than 33 of them having resided there,
some of whom served but six days
in office, and among whom were such
famous men as Weyler, Blanco and
Augustin. Francisco Rizzo served a
few days in 1898 after the capitula-
ton, and was the last Spanish govern.
or general to live there. The Spanish
coat-of-arms still grace the arch over
the entrance, but big American po-
liceman sits daily as guard over the
place, reminding one of latter day
conquests.
Hon. William H. Taft was the first
American official to occupy the pal
ace, being succeeded by Governors
General Luke E. Wright and Henry
Clay Ide. Mrs. Taft while mistress
of Malacanan inaugurated a system
of public receptions held monthly, and
which are still in vogue. To these
receptions all the prominent people
go to pay their respects and enjoy
the hospitality of the chief executive,
and such personages as the duke OF
Abruzzi, the prince of Savoy and
countless other notables of the world
and of the orient are numbered among
those who have been entertained
there, it falling to the lot of Miss
Marjorie Ide, as first lady of the land,
to entertain the prince of Savoy be-
fore she had spent fortnight in her
new home.

Fashions for the Automobilist

The most sensible thing noticed at
present is the small hat. Time was
when the woman autoist affected the
big picture hat, but it proved too much
for couture and temper, and she wise
ly gave it up. Almost any small hat
that can be worn under an automobile
veil is considered right for automobile
toilet, and the popular small sailor an
swers this purpose very we'll. Many
women, however, like to have a dis
when they are touring, and there is
offered for their choice a wide variety.
The long turban simply trimmed is a

Her auto wrap, all white and volumln-
Gus, with immense sleeves, looks like
an opera cloak. Her floating white
chiffon veil adds to the partified en-
semble. When she alights for dinner
at the country club and removes her
wrap, there is disclosed very ele-
CANT summer toilet, she looks all ready
for the ball room.
Now we come to the happy mean,
the woman that likes automobiling for
the pleasure of the ride rather than
because sutoing is "the thing" and
dresses neither in mannish fashion
nor as if going to .dance-iust in
temperate apparel. And we confess

favorite, the cap with visor has some
adherents.
Responding to the present liking for
grays, the milliners are displaying
charming little gray erin hats with
long gray chiffon wells shirred here,
left plain there. Worn with one of the
gray satin coats now much the mode,
the costume is very modern as well
as fresh and pretty.
Not few women when they go in
for sports of any kind like their
clothes to bear sportsman air; and for
these there are provided trim auto
suits of tailored style. These are coat
suits of pongee or khaki, with gay
vest, skirt short, shirt-waist severely
plain.
In contrast is the aIitoist with love
for luxury and feminine fripperies.

each seam of insertion strips. The
fufffness about the face is very be-
coming.
AT last we are finding some excel
lent models Of Princess gowns. and
the best of all have several rows of
shirring at the waist line, enough to
do away with any sharp outlining of
curve of hip and bust. The shirring
begins just below the bust, and the
lower rows form a dip in the front,
do not run straight around, but start
from the sides and slope downward.

Then she stood upright in the moon
