Chahne Dish Anrona

have you seen the dainty aprons for
chatng dish parties in the heart
shaped pattern? Cut large heart OF
lowered dimity or dotted swiss, roll
the edges and trim with a rufle OF
Valenciennes lace, leaving about ten
inches at the round part of the heart
untrlmmed. This is slightly gathered.
and the strings are sewed to it, the
point OF the heart forming the bot
tom OF the apron. Cut a heart of
smaller size for the bib, which is also
rolled and trimmed with lace, and a
tiny heart for the pocket, which is
finished IN the same way, but with a
narrow lace. The bib is sewed over
the strings with the point at the bot
tom, and the little pocket on the left
side of the large heart. The effect is
so pretty when finished that am sure
it will please.

States Supervising Inspector Berming-
ham established precedent today
when he suspended for forty days the
sentence of suspension passed by United

Several weeks ago Captain Nelson

manager of the California Transporta-
tion company line of river steamers, had
represented to him that in order to
prosecute successfully business during

owing to his acquaintance with the
sloughs of the Sacramento river.
In view of this representa- ton, In
spector Birmingham suspended the sus-
pension for a period of forty days, after
which period Captain Nelson must sur
render his license for the unexpired

dressed the following official letter to
Arturo NJ Elias, Mexican consul at
Tucson:
"Relative to the newspaper clippings
which were annexed to your letter of
the 21st inst referring to supposed

recommend that you say through the
press of your city that some American
newspapers in cities near the frontier
have been publishing and continue to
publish articles stating that there has
arisen sentiment of hostility between
Mexicans, particularly of the laboring
class, and Americans, which Is very far
from the truth; that such tales preJu-
dice the interests of both Americans
and Mexicans and that by order of the
government of Mexico, l direct that you
make known that they are false and are
published in notorious bad faith and

Instead of OBTAINING Man Wanted
In Many States, Detective
Nabs Innocent and Well

PORTLAND, Me, Aug. 1.-Instead of
having in custody an American biga-
mist known as Lord Douglass,
wanted by the authorities of many
states, as was at first supposed, the
Portland police, it is thought, have de-
tanned Lord Sholto Douglass, third son
of the late marquis of Queensberry,
Several days ago a Portland detective
was requested by the police of Ashe-
vile, N. c., to arrest man who rented
a cottage on the shore of Shebago lake
in May. The officer went to the lake
yesterday and detained a man known
at the lake resorts as S. G. Douglass.
The Asheville police were notified, but
the local authorities suspected from the
first that mistake had been made
and refrained from making public the
occurrence.
The suspect regarded the arrest
humorously and told the officer who
called on him that he was Lord Sholto
George Douglass. With him were two
lass and their son.
Tells Convincing Story
So convincing was his story that the
local police notified the Asheville Of
fcers today that in their opinion the
man was what he claimed to be, and
they advised them to order his release.
The police here state that the deScrip-
tion of the bigamist beyond a slight
resemblance does not correspond to
that of the Englishman.
Tonight the police sent cablegram
to Scotland Yard, London. asking for
information. If the reply which is ex-
pected tomorrow is favorable to the
man under detention he will be re-
leased, regardless of the kilograms re-
ceived from Asheville.
The prisoner states that the health of
his wife had not been good and that he
decided to stay in Maine for the sum-
mer They selected cottage on the
shore of the lake so that they might
have seclusion, and in order to avoid
publicity they were known as Mr.. and
Mrs. S. G. Douglass. Lord Sholto
Douglass married Miss Loretta Adkins
and for several years resided in Cali
fornia.
