others with the round Dutch neck also styled the Alice Roosevelt. All sleeves are short.
 One sees such lovely shades of green this year, and though green hats cannot be said to retain the popular ity of a couple of years back those that are abroad are generally extreme ly pretty. The green most approved
 is soft gray green. not the brilliant emerald obtaining earlier. There is no color cooler looking in summer, more refreshing, and when becoming it is wise choice for warm weather frock. Charming green yoilies are no ticed, and some charming green taffe- tas.
 For evening wear crepe de chine is in high favor, and favored trimming Is the new ribbon embroidery. Touches of black velvet are much used, very pretty with summer gowns. It is seen rather on evening occasions than for the street, where there is observ- able more harmony than contrast. And speaking of street costumes. everybody is getting weary of corselet skirt and abbreviated bolero, the short-waisted jackets that extend be- low the waist line are in better style: one sees numbers of excellent ones of this sort, they look so simple and neat. not ambitious and obtrusive like the tight,ftting cerseles.

but his acrobatics are the topic The musical critics give few lines of ap- preciatiOn to his genius, and then wander off into long descriptions of his methods.
 Here is one account of his second concert at Queens hall on Wednes- day:
 Many and various were the involEn- tary limitations he gave of wild beasts jiu-jitsu wrestlers. acrobats and ven triloquists The enthusiasm of the au- dience was intense, for musical Lon don has never before ,beheld a con ductor who got quite so much work out of band of sixty.
 ''Creatore used baton last night q frail. slender stick. but still a baton. This did not interfere. however in the least with his acrobatic and other performances.
 "The famous overture to Spring Creatorc conducted almost entirely with his hair. In the quieter moments of the overture he chased himself,' as our American cousins would say, around the platform. uttering purring ventriloquial sounds But when tho quiet moments had given place to tho splendid brazen finale. Creatore be- came for the time being the king of 1 the forest.
 Emitting low ominous groyls. he sprang on the unoffending and score less music stand. which he shook yio- lently. the while shaking his dark mane to the believing of the trom- bones
 "A Darby and Joan couple in the | third row of the stalls exchanged agitated whispers. but were reassured by the broad Grins on the faces of | their soulless neighbcrs.
 As the finale waxed in noise and 1 sple,nIor. Creatore assumed the atti- tude of jiu-jitsu wrestler. and cum. ningly approached the clarinets. who rose to the occasion and responded with volume of sound which was entirely uncalled for.

Shirt waists of snowy white, sheer waist of snowy white, all womankind arrayed in summer stuffs. It is hard to tell where the shirt waist stops and lingerie waist begins, for they are so closely related. One sees a charming negligee shirt waist that looks like boating shirt, the sleeves short with turn-back cuffs, the collar a lay-down, easy bit of neckwear fin ished with soft, easy-looking tie. This promises to be feature of waists of the summer of 1906, and one can readily see it has considerable to recommend It. perhaps the chief thing the unmistakable air of com fort. The pretty sailor is very -ap- propriate accompaniment.
 We must be either very short waist ed today or else very long waisted and syelte-Empire modes or elongated bodice. The models shown in the H. lustration belong decidedly to the lat ter class. On the lingerie blouse of latest style we. find the trimming slightly different from last year, -the chief novelty. perhaps, the .uSe of heavy lace and embroidery on sheer material. used in narrow inset lines It is a pretty idea/ emphasizes the fineness of the material Not a few of the new lingerie blopses are quite low in the neck; there are some with a square neck, some V.shaped, and

The Matinee-Jacket Girl

The matinee girl and tho matinee jacket girl need not be at all alike; one loves to spend sentimental hours with stage hero. one loves to lounge in budoir privacy and comfort.
 But in summer there are days when we are all matinee!iacket inclined. when even the most energetic is glad to take to comfortable loose negligee and comfortable pillowed couch; wherefore 1t is well to present little talk on present-day styles in negligee costume.
 One may spend small fortune on a-jacket and tea.gown. and one may attain very attractive ones for only a small outlay. Imported. handmade lingerie affairs cost way up. are i'm possible for the average purse: but one may throw together oneself. if at all capable. some filmy stun and feel quite content with results. There arc figured swisses that that need but little trimming and are. inexpensive and very appropriate for summer Iounging robe and sack: there are wash silks that are likewise inexpen- sive and pretty mulls. lawns. handker- chief linen-any number Of materials.

The loose sack, loose from short yoke down. is still In Ia yor. and the other day ve saw a nov city in the way of one meant io slip on over the head This had a square neck. the opening large enough to go over the head easily. and there was avoided the usual problem of how to keen a loose sack elosed-as a rule always nnfastening at ths most awk- ward moment.
 Of course. sleeves are all short for coolnsss. and to give the dressy look desired. Sometimes the sleeve will he a mere rufse. a deep frill.

Young Nan Who is Said to Have Been
o of G. =. Jockey, Esq, Former
Resident of Wilmington. Killed in
Columbia by Embankmcnt Gazing
i'm on Him.

On Monday in Columbia two white
men, city convicts. we're killed by an
embankment caving in on them and
it is said that one Of the young men
was a son of G.. P. Jockey, Esq, who
was formerly a resident of Whining
ton. A special to The Charlotte OBJ
server in regard to the death of the
men says:
"Today's inquest over the bodies Of
the two city convicts who werr killed
by an embankment cavfng in on them
yesterday while they were at work on
the gang, reveals that the white man
killed was a member or a prominent
North Carolina family, whose father
has spent several thousand dollars on
him in vain efforts to correct him of
his criminal tendencies and pay him
out Of various scrapes. He had pride
and respect enough to masquerade
under an assumed name, Fred Dufie.
He was serving a term for stealing an
OvercOat. He came from Wilmington.
where his father was a distinguished
member Of the bar, the family remov-
ing a few "a ago to Oklahoma.
Another son is a successful young
business man of Union, S. C. One of
the guards testified that a negro quot
ed Duffie as saying a FEW minutes be-
fore the accident happened hat he
was tired of life and wished the en-
bankment would cave in on him. The
verdict was that the two men came
to their death by an embankment cav
ing in on them and their deaths were
due to their own carelessness."

According to the predictions Of the
weather bureau the North Carolina
coast. and for that matter entire south
Atlanti coast, is going to be swept by
another storm which is travelling up
the coast. Weather bureau has been
days past stating that a tropical dis
turbancc was travelling slowly along
the gulf coast. It was hoped that the
storm would be Of small consequence
by the time that 1t reached this por-
ton Of h coast If it struck here at
all but it now looks like the storm is
increasing in intensity as it ravel to
the north. Latest storm warming says
that the storm will probably be severe
on middle and northeast gulf coast and
also on south Atlantic coast.
It is said to have been rather blus-
try outside yesterday and looked very
much like a storm might be brewing.
It is probably that the storm will
strike this part Of the coas this af-
ternoon or tonight. September is al
ways a bad month for storms and Of
ten during this season OcCure the worst
storms Of the year. 1t ha been a long
time since as severe a storm swept the
coast as the one of ten days ago.
The condition Of the trestle between
Wrightsville n the beach is not in
the best of condition to withstand a
storm and should the tide be very
high again it is thought more than
probable that very great damage
would be done. 1t is hoped though
that the torn is cot anything like the
one Of a few days since and that most
Of its force will be spent before reach
ing this point.
The storm warning is as follows:
"NOrtheast storm warning 3 p. m.
Charleston. Wilmington, MOrehead,
Washington, Columbia, Edenton, Eliz-
City. Gulf disturbance appar-
emily approaching coast near Pensa-
cola and will be severe along middle
and northeast Gulf and south Atlantic
coast. Center will probably move
