ed buildings in the business district.
And, by the way, the business men
generally acted handsomely in the
way of decorations; the town has
never been more generally Eor effect
lively decorated.
The parade was rather disappoint-
ing. it was somewhat late in start
ing, and there we're not 1000 people
in line altogether. NOT more than
half that number, indeed, whereas
the Democrats had advertised that
there would be 1000 horsemen alone,
The parade moved in the following
order:
Marshal John b. Turner.
Aides Sam Cobb, John Gunter, II.
z. Ridenhour, Mat Hawkins.
Vinita Band,
Carriage with t. M. Burlington, J..
S. Davenport and Governor.
Davis of Arkansas
Children on horseback.
Ladies on horseback
Squad of men on horseback.
Centralia band
Horseback riders
Bicycles
Citizens in carriages.
Young Mems Uniformed Democrat
ic club.
By actual count the number of men
on horseback was 152, and large pro-
portion Of these were boys. There
were Is in the young mems club.
Most OF the compaign banners carried
referred to Hitchcock and guardian
ship, which seemed to be the two great
bugabooS,
The parade was formed at North
park, marched west on Sequoyah TO
Miller, south to Canadian, east to
Smith, north to Hlllinois, east to Will
son, south to Canadian, east to the
grove. There was big crowd there,
which had become ravenously hungry
by neon, and made frantic rush at
the barbecued beef, which was in
abundance.
At noon the streets were enlivened
with the music of five bands, those
from Vinita, Centralia and Grove,
besides the band of the Dandy Dixie
minstrels and the Kit Carson show,
the latter being an excellent organi-
zation, one of the best bands heard
here for some time.
In the afternoon the principal event
was the speech of Governor Davis Of
Arkansas at the grove. This had not
been finished when The Chinftain
went to press. Many had expected a
parade in the Afternoon, but there
was none. The Young Mems Demo-
cratic club marched out to the grove
with fife and drum, and presented a
much better appearance, than In
the morning parade as there
we're 35 members in line. The suits
here this morning too late for
before the parade, which
accounts for the disappointing show
ing the boys made.
AS the young men. in their white
suits, passed the court house this
afternoon there was the usual yell Of
i'Carpetbagger, carpetbaggerw "Gwan
you white wings" shc-ted back one
Of the carpetbaggers: get your SHOW
Els and 90 to work. The point Of
5he Joke was lost on most of the
young Democrats. The street clean
ing force of New York wear suits like
those adopted by the club, and are re-
ierred to universally as"white wings "
A roping contest is being held this
afternoon at the baseball park, which
IS attracting the interest Of the cow
boy contingent.
Last night William H. Wallace
spoke at the grove, and tonight the
speaker will be General Alfred Oren-
iorff of Springfield, H., whose speech
will close the two days celebration.

MEN SECURE
AN INCREASE

st. Louis, Sept 27-The strike OF
Wabash boilermakers, machinists and
blacksmiths was ended today by the
company granting an increase Of wag-
es. The terms have not been made
public beyond this statement issued
by General Manager Miller; "The
wage question has been settled by
making an increase that is mutually
satisfactory. The men returned to
work Immediately.

put an end to Furman's harangue
AS to what Mr.. Bryan said, The Chief
tain greatly regrets that 1T cannot in
form its readers. A..reporter for The
Chieftain and for the Associated Press
the great news-gathering agency Of
the United States, went to the grove,
but was informed by Committeeman
Theodore d. B, Frear that there were
no Accommodations for the newspaper
men. AS a consequence The Chieftain
is without report Of the speech,
and, more than that, Vinita lost the
chance for advertising itself thru the
Associated Press which it might have
had if the committee had shown a
little more foresight. 1t was doubt
less merely an oversight on the COM
mittee's part, which probably will
not occur again on occasions Of this
kind.
Among the prominent Democrats
on the platform when Mr.. Bryan spoke
were Governor Jeff Davis Of Arkansas,
Henry M. Furman, j, S. Davenport,
L. B. Bell, T. NJ. Burlington, DR.. Z.
B. Frayser, Seymour Riddle and j. B.
Turner. Mr.. Bryan was introduced
by f. S. e. Amos, president of the
local Democratic club.
At the conclusion of his speech Mr..
Bryan was escorted to his train at the
Frisco station by Major Turner's
rough riders. The party reached the
station promptly at 8, but the train
was delayed 20 minutes in starting.
In the meantime tremendous crowd
had gathered at the depot and in
spite of the fact that Chairman Dunn
had asked that there be no shaking of
Mr.. Bryan's hand, the Nebraskan sat
on the rear platform of the car and
for 20 minutes did nothing but shake
hands. Those who crowded about
the car for the privilege of a hand
clasp were largely women and children
the men, for the most part, allowing
the feminine portion of the crowd to
press forward into the front ranks.
Mr.. Bryan seemed to take the hand
shaking good-na turally, tho a dis
patch sent out not long ago from the
south stated that his hand had been
swollen by constant shaking that he
could scarcely use it, When the train
pulled out he stood on the rear plat
form, hat off, acknowledging the
cheers of the crowd who lined both
sides of the track for some distance.
BY the time the big parade started
at 10 o'clock, the sky had become

~YoU HAVE BROKEN MY HEART"
Mother of Harry K. Thaw Visits Her
 Son I'm the Tombs.

SUI
 NEW YORK, July Hilary, Har- ry, you have broken my heart.'
 Uttering these words as convulsive sobs shook her frame. Mrs. Mary Thaw. mother of Harry Kendall Thaw, at first sight of her son wrapped her arms around his neck in one quick gesture and covered his face with kisses. Young Thaw. with his arms around his mother. began to weep, and Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, who was standing a few feet away, also began to cry hysterically.
 The prison keepers who witnessed the meeting turned brusquely away and with trembling lips and dimmed eyes walked to the end of the corri- dor. where after a few moments of mastery they returned.
 Immediately following her first inter- view with her son, Harry K. Thaw, in the Tombs since her return from Flu. rope on Saturday, Mrs. William Thaw assumed full charge of the defense and arranged to retain the services as counsel of the firm of Black, Olcott Gruber & Bonynge. who were dismiss ed by young Thaw a few days ago This action is taken to mean that liar " Thaw's desires and opinions regard ing the defense will be ignored and that reliance will be placed on the plea of insanity.

 vet band edged the short sleeve, the little jacket was closed in front by buckle-adorned black velvet ribbon ends. The dusky soft ribbon was very pretty against the beautiful lace.
 A number of refreshing simple hats are worn with the simple morning tub frocks, trimming reduced to the lowest terms. One charming black chip sail or mas twined about it's crown a wreath of crimson ramblers, a blue sailor a garland of baby white roses, an all white hat a careless spray of daisies and nothing else. And the lit- lie frocks themselves are so fresh and neat, as a rule one-piece dresses.

With these waists lace and embroidery are used sparingIy. and must be the fines, Of the fine.

forgets the outlay. With the pink handkerchief linen a very fine Swiss embroidery gees beautifully, and em- ploy the embroidery sparingly. not to detract from daintiness. There is no lovelier summer combination than the combination of pink and white. and to-day the pinks all being in such es- teem, it has fashion as we'll as pretti- ness to commend 1t.
 Very delicate dresses are worn on the street, the public thoroughfares thereby given a holiday aspect. Once it would have appeared strange to see matron strolling along the street in dress of pale blue silk, but not to- day. A young matron looks very pretty and youthful in a gown of light blue taffeta, its fashion so simple as to cause no comment when made use of as church dress. There is a separate upper part and rufiied sleeve of cream cotton lace, 90 soft and pretty one for gets 10 >criticise quality. The girdle, as girdles should be. is of the material of the main part of the dress-nothine more awkward, 1t seems to us, than a gir6le drawing attention to the point where waist and skirt meet. To return to the costume whose details we have suggested, the hat accompanying this toilet is yellow lace straw, the long gloves the same shade.
 For the aesthetic value, every biz automobile should have a group of summer ladies on the back seat, their voluminous. draperies and floating wells taking from the machine aspect of the ugly vehicles. Yesterday an auto flashed by with three ladies in the rear scat, and we noted all three wore white chiffon wells, and that the effec, was better than when colors are Haunted. If of good quality the chif. ion veil may be washed in soap and water, is a cleanly veil and dainty. The wearing of two veils is still indulget in, though many women eschew ever one in the heat of the summer.

At this time of the year the very prattiest possessions in the wardrobe are Irought forth. No more saving now for great occasions, summers reign is brief at the best, and let us wear out summer stuffs ere the season vanish. A group of warm-weather frocks of exceptional beauty we are tempted to dwell upon. One was dull pink muslin, made in quaint modified Empire fashion; worn with this a short sacque coat of dark red glace silk, the hat black chip draped with black lace and bearing single red rose in front. A tall dark-eyed girl wore a white muslin dress and short light blue glace coat, with white lace lingerie hat trimmed with light blue ribbon. A matron looked exceedingly we'll in little black glace coat accom- panying a white voile skirt. white embroidered collar standing out against the black of the coat.
 White and yellow are sometimes very good together, especially if only a little Of the color be used. A white Danish cloth dress. creamy in tone, and trimmed with straps of cream silk, was worn with yellow straw hat adorned with yellow plumes. This costume was effective, and a change from all-white quite pleasing. The parasol, of course, was white. Nine out of every ten parasols seen are white.
 A white wool trimmed with bands of light gray is modish, introducing the pale gray note and the strap trim ming liked on tailored dresses. Not a little brilliant green is used in ribbons for midsummer millinery, and hat crowns are now of a remarkable height. This does not mean that the iow-crcwned hat of early spring is rel egated to t...r-s that were, but that new midsummer chaFeaus have much

high3r crowns, this perhaps most nO- ticeable on outing hats.
 The little coffee coats are of an elaboration, but skirts are plainest of the plain A well cut and fitted plain skirt always has more style, than be- trimmed one, the lines following those of the figure and making more pleas ing effect. The popular coffee coat an swers many purposes, adds dressy touch to costume, hides deficiencies, and is just the thing to throw on at home when an unexpected visitor ar rives. No wonder 1t has taken such hold in the world of fashion.
 A very pretty dance frock for g, young girl is made of pink organdy, and is an exception to the plain-skirt dictum just laid down. But dance frocks may be exceptions-so long as they are pretty and becoming. The skirt is just succession of founces, the lowest about ten inches wide, 8 flounce decreasing in width one inch as 1t ascends, save that those about the hips are of like size and the skirt is constructed ot many lace-edged ruf1es. and also the sleeves. There is round baby yoke, with low Dutch neck, of lace insertion. The girdle is of pink liberty silk with long streamers at the middle of the front.
 The tulle boas, both colored and those of white or black, are worn with pleasing effect by tall women; but the short woman should not take to ruffs. For her the low neck, which fortunate ly happens to be the fashion at pres ent, ard the rolling collar. A V-shaped cut is becoming to the stout lady, and gives more slenderness than the Dutch neck. But tulle boas, or no tulle hoas, women to-day, slender and plump, are very prettily costumed.

 NEW YORK, July 1I.-Herman Kal- lenbers. Charles ". Hilldring and An thony J. Rivers. three aldermen of New Rochelle under indictment charging bribery. were arrested and held in s2.50o cash bail for trial. Alfred Rado. the fourth alderman indicted, was ar rested and furnished bail on Saturday.
 The four men were accused by B. A. Reynolds. president of the State Line Telephone company. of making de- mands for money in return for fran chlse the company wanted in westches- ter county.

With midsummer weather there springs up on all sides "a wonderful variety of frivolous little coats. But rot few possess beauty that gives them an excuse for being. Just the other day we noticed one that seemed to make the costume. It formed part of an all-white toilet, the material of the small wrap a beautiful, rather heavy linen lace It was a half loose little coat, and of course the sleeves were chopped of at the elbow. The distinctive features were the quality of the lace and the touches here and there of black velvet ribbon bands with white pearl buckles. A black vel

AEROyAUTS ARE HURLED HEADLONG
U. T" 0-I DaIIoonists Taken From Water After Wreck of Huge Gas Bag by ves- seI Which Was the Cause
 of Mf,haU.

NEW YORK, July 17.-Leo Stevens, an aeronaut, with James Hare and Charles Levee, the latter noted French balloonist, met with an accident here that imperiled their lives when their balloon, which had sailed over the bay and across New York city, landed in the water near the Long Is- land sound shore off College Point. The three men were hurled head first into the water.
 The opportune presence of a sloop, which was fouled by the balloons big sea anchor. which it had been the in- tention of Mir. Stevenson to test. prob ably saved the lives of the two aero nauts and their photographer. Hare.
 Driven first one way and then anoth- CT by high winds after the start at Sta pleten. N. r.. the big airship crossed over toward Flushing and then was sent whirling toward College Point
 For some reason it descended sudden y when just of the Long Island shore, the anchor becoming tangled on the sloop. All three of the occupants were hurled head first into the shallow wa ters, but were soon landed on the sloop by deck hands. ...-..
 The balloon and the aeronauts were brought over to landing on the shore.
 The navigators had hard time get ting away on the start. They first ran foul of a tree. then a clothesline and then into three story brick build fng. and the three in the basket were nearly upset on each occasion.
 Coming over the bay the balloon was up about 400 feet. but when over Bat 2 tery park three bags of sand were dropped, and the balloon rose to a seight of 1000 feet. Attracting eonsid- srable attention from downtown crowds the immense gas bag continued to the -rtheast and then drifted back over Ae city, sailing over the Brooklyn bridge terminal and the Manhattan tower of the Williamsburg bridge.
 A strong southwest wind was blow ing when the balloon began to ascend. and it was carried into a tree. The three men in the basket were hurled to one side and narrowly missd being thrown out As 1t was several branches of the tree were broken
 Later the balloon descended and foul Cd the sloop.
