ing recent years for antique rings, Pre-.
viding that they have some real value.
They must be worn, Of course, with
appropriate modern rings, and if more
than one old ring is worn the two
must harmonize. These old rings
contrasted with obviously new and
modern rings do not mako a happy
combination.
For evening wear most men prefer
pearl studs and nothing is handsomer.
Most New Workers wear two pearls
in the shirt bosom. These should
not be too large, even II their owner
is a multi-millionaire. The Oriental
and not the barocque pearls are, Of
course, most in demand.
The single pearl surrounded by
small diamonds is less frequently
seen here than in London, where this
style is popular The best dressed
New York men prefer two medium sized
pearls Of fine lustp. Ii they want TO
spend money on their shirt studs they
put it into the quality Of the pearls
and not the size.
So many men wear buttons for their
waistcoat matching the studs that
/ there is a tendency to have both the
sleeve links and the waistcoat buttons
made of pearls. Especially has this ap-
pealed TO men able to do what they
want to without thinking of the price.

The plain gold links are made up in

so much worn during the last few years,
has now unluckily lost its vogue among
we'll dressed men. II was not a style
that could stand widespread popu
larity.
So long as only a comparatively small
number of men wore the pins they
continued smart, but they lost that
distinction as soon as they were put on
the market at prices which put them
within the reach of anybody. They
have been initiated in brass and have
passed over into the Office boys ward

Men who want to buy an expensive
and handsome scarf pin nowadays
have but one opinion. They buy a
pearl of one of the kinds described.
Watch chains are single and extend
usually from waistcoat pocket to
another Rather large and perfectly
plain links are the most popular.
lt is only important that the chain
be perfectly simple and free from any
| ornamentation of the kind formerly
described as watch chains. The chain
may be made as expensive and heavy
as desirable.
Watch fobs with a gold monogram
on the silken ribbon and those with
seals on amethyst or other stones are
I offered very generally in the best of
| the jewelry stores, but IL cannot be
said that they are popular here. In
! the countries of Europe they are gen
orally worn by men who change the
| black ribbon for white one when they
wear evening dress.
OF course no such eXtravagant fash
ion has been attempted here.

little worn afterward 10y their grateful

Key chains are not $50 popular as they
were. Commoner are the short'chains

There are many attractive objects to

UNIVERSITY OF MAINE,
Coach 6utman Is Doing Good Work
With Ball Team Candidates,

Orono. Me. Feb. 26.-(SpeciaD .-Coach
Pullman is now starting his third week
with the candidates for the ball team and
expresses himself as we'll satisfied with
the work of the men. The outlook, as al
| the beginning, is none too promising and
the lack of any choice material has been
| somewhat disheartening to Captain Frost
| and his old Varsity men.
The style in which the new coach takes
hold of the work. however, has given all
the men encouragement. 1t IS evident
| that the men trying for the team will
| have to work and work hard and Mr.
Butman stands no fooling. His business
| is to make a baseball team and he is
seconded in his efforts by the whole stu
dent body.
The work at present is light and the
physical condition of the men is being
| carefully looked after by Steve Farrell
The cage work will consist almost en-
tirely of the ''lmbering up process" and
| every precaution is being taken to avoid
strained arms and other injuries.
Besides Capt. Frost of the old Varsity
men there are now in college Burns, Hos
mer. Macdonald and Quint 'O7. and Cor
| don. Chase and Sawyer '0S. There is a
| large squad of freshmen out for business.
but with the exception OF Higgins of Som
| ervlle none of them seem to be certain
of a position.
So far about 40 have started in practice.

In speaking Of the city's source
of water supply Monday. City Engi-
neer Getchell said that everything
connected with the plant was running
very smoothly. and that the supply of
water which was coming into the
reservoir from Carleton pond by
gravity was considerably larger than
had been anticipated. Only one Of the
smaller pumps at the station is being
used in keeping the water in the reser-
voir at high water mark. and that is
being run only on an average of about
seven hours a day. The quantity of
water which flows into the reservoir
by gravity each day is about 1,OOO,OOO
gallons, and the amount pumped in Is
perhaps 100000 gallons. which is
enough to keep the water in the big
tank up the high water level. The
amount of water used daily in the city.
on the average. is between 100000 and
1,75O,O0O gallons.
