COLOR IN MEMS CLOTHES. (
Some of the Rainbow Effects to {
Be Seen in London.

The drab dizziness which has so long
reigned over mems dress is showing
signs of giving place to the opposite
extreme, and men are beginning to vie
with women in the brilliancy of their
garments, says the London Tribune.
The favorite color of the moment
would seem to be green. A distin-
guished Academician has been seen
wearing lounge jacket of that color
edged with brown. Again, Mr.. Martin
Harvey has adopted it, and so have
other actors, but they have SO far es-
chewed the bright grass green which
the more advanced young man has
adopted. Suits of vivid blue have al
so been observed of late.
There is apparently no limit to in
dividual tastes in dress, though it
would be rather difficult to Guido a
gentleman who was seen a few days
ago in the Bayswater road. He was
wearing pair of white flannel trousers
violet shirt, flaming scarlet tie, a
bright blue jacket, parti-colored
waist coat, pair of yellow boots and
black silk hat. He was not Christy
minstrel, but a more or less ordinary
citizen.
AS for the mems shops, their win
dows are a riot of color. Here one
may see waistcoats with crossbars of
vivid green and no less vivid white
on gray ground and caps with col
ossal checks. The ties form not a
feast, but an orgy of color. Some
of them are shot" until one thinks
of Nero's famous mullet of vermillion
dying in an ecstasy of azure. The
crudity of color, however, is by no
means accompanied by crudity of price.
Some of the latest designs in shirts
literally blaze. Some of the more mod
est are light green, with subtle tinge
worked in, and ornamented with dots,
while a light purple material, also dot
ted, thrusts itself forward to suggest
the background of an early Jan Van
Beers. The chic thing is evidently to
make the handkerchief match the shirt.
Until this year men were generally
content to use white handkerchief
with perhaps border of color. Now
the handkerchief is all border, and If
there Is any suggestion of white at
all it is a stripe in the edge as an
apology for what used to be.
All this flamboyance Is not merely
outward. All the colors of the rain
bow may be found in what our Amer
lean cousins call the underwear de-
partment. If man SO please he may
change the color of his undergarments
every day of the week and sleep in
pajamas of similar tints. Or he may
array himself to resemble Neapoli-
tan ice, a subtle suggestion perhaps
for keeping cool at night during the
dog DAYS.

WHEN YOU'RE CANNING BERRIES.
Proportions to Use-The Cooking and
Filling Of the Bottles.

Allow three pints of fruit for tie
nlling of one quart jar. Look over
the berries carefully, and If any i'm
perfect ones appear, do not hesitate
to throw them to one side. Into your
porcelain kettle put one cupful Of
white sugar and just enough water
to start the berries cooking. and as
soon as the sugar is melted, add your
berries. Cover, and watch carefully,
and as soon as they reach the boiling
point remove the kettle from the fire,
filing the jar to within one-eighth of
an inch Of the top, filing this space
with berries dipped from the juice
Wipe all juice from the top of the can,
adjust the rubber ut is we'll to put
the rubber on before filing and screw
on the lid as tight as possible. Invert
the can and let remain thus for few
minutes; examine, and If any should
be found leaking around the lid, take
small hammer or knife-handle and
pound all around the edge of the lid,
especially pounding down where the
leak appears, taking pains to have the
striking done on the lid and rubber
alone. Repeat this, until no leak ap-
pears. then let the jars stand, inverted,
until perfectly cool, advises writer
in the home department of The Com
moner. II the jar continues to leak.

as the light affects the color of some
fruits, and spoils the flavor of others.
One Of the very best helps in can
ming time Is a steam cooker; or an
old-fashioned steamer is Just as good.
The jars may be filled with the I'M
cooked fruit, the top put on loosely
and steamed until hot through, filling
part of the jars with the contents Of
others, as the berries settle down
when heated. The same care must be
taken to have the fruit boiling hot"

will make its own Juice. The water
under the steamer or in the cooker
must be boiling briskly when the jars
are set in, and it must not be allowed
to cease from boiling while the jars
are inside. 1t is the steam which
cooks. and there must be plenty of it.

property from thieves. Gordon Kerr
was slugged and seriously wounded at
an early hour Wednesday. While he
lay unconscious from the effects of a
blow on the head, the thieves, loaded
down with plumber, made good their
escape.
About o'clock in the morning Mr..
Kerr revived and, staggering up stairs
where Barnard Holes and Harold Pit
ner were asleep. gave the alarm. The
police were hastily summoned and are
now searching for two men, the des-
cription of whom was given by Mr..
Kerr.
Mr.. Kerr was taken to the barrow
hospital in Moorhead where his wound,
caused by blow with a heavy instru-
ment on the forehead, was dressed,
and where he is now being cared for.
Mr.. and Mrs. o. w. Kerr, in whose
North Broadway residence the burg
larry and smuggling occurred, have been
out of the city for some time. During
their absence the house has been oc-
cupied only by Gordon Kerr until last
night when Harold Pitner, Mrs. Kerr's
son, returned home from visit to the
lakes. Bernard Holes accepted an in
vitation to sleep with Harold Pitner.
The two boys and Mr.. Kerr retired
early and the boys slept soundly until
about 4 o'clock when they were awak-
ened by Mr.. Kerr.
The latter was awakened sometime
during the night by noises down stairs.
At first he supposed that Mr.. and Mrs.
Kerr had returned on an early train
and he called out. Receiving no reply,
he became suspicious and, securing
shot gun, started down stairs. When
he stepped into the kitchen he saw
man crawling through a window. Mr..
Kerr raised the shotgun and fired, pur-
posely low. Almost instantly he was
struck by man whom he has not
noticed before and who carried q flash
light. The blow rendered Mr.. Kerr
unconscious and it was not until about
o'clock that he revived. Then he
staggered up stairs and gave the alarm
to the boys who had not been awak-
ened by the struggle in the kitchen.

Longest Name on Record.

A subject of King George of Greece
holds the record in names, says the
Paris Figaro.
He has been settled in Milwaukee,
Wis, for several years, and answers
to the Christian name of "Jack," but
his surname is Pappatheorokoum-
neutrality-suspicious..
This Greek is an enthusiastic auto
mobilist. He frequently reaches a
speed of 20 miles an hour, and he
amuses himself by wagering with his
friends that he will cover a mile in
his car before they can pronounce his
name in full. He has always won his
bets,

Harry Thaw.

New York, July l6.-Hsrry Thaw's
sudden action in dismissing his counsel
because the conduct of the case did not
suit his fancy, is regarded simply as
another evidence of wilfullness and
thoughtless impetuosity which has char
acterized the actions of the young Pitts
burger throughout bis life. His mother,
Mrs. William Thaw, will hold confer
ence today with Lewis A. Dela6eld, her
personal counsel, and former Judge Oh.
colt, both of whom we're dismissed by
Thaw. 1t is not unlikely that Mrs.
Thaw will dIsapprove the action OF her
son, but whether she will try to prevail
upon him to re engage counsel again is
problemstical. Clifford w. Hartridge,
the attorney whom Thaw has engaged
to conduct bis case, with A. Russell Pea
body, John B. Gleason, and F. w.
Longfellow, admitted at the outset that
Thaw WAS in hole aud that his counsel
resllzed it, but that in the end the jury
would be bound to scquit his client.
The selection of Mr.. Hartridge to con-
duct Thaw's case means without doubt
that either William Rand, IT,, or James
w. Osborne, former Assistant District
Attorneys, will be engaged to handle the
case before the jury.
Mrs. William Thaw, mother OF the
prisoner, paid her first visit to see her
son 10 the Tombs cell this morning. The
elder Mrs rhaw arrived at the prison at
IL O'Clock, accompanied by her stepson,
Josiah Thaw. 1t wss a sad reunion be-
tween mother and son on her return
from her trip abroad, which was cut
short when the news of his act commit
ted during her absence was broken to
the mother.
Mrs. Harry Thaw, wife of the prison.
er, was also visitor at the Tombs, hay
ing arrived there sbont two minutes in
advance of her motherinlaw.
When Mrs. William Thaw was usher
ed up stairs Harry took advantage of the
opened door to rush out aud embrace
his mother. There we're tears in the
eyes of both as they met, and as Thaw
held his mother in his arms both indulg-
ed in good cry. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw
who had been with her husband before
his mother arrived, joined in the gener-
al cry Later Mrs. Thaw, tho younger,
and Josiah Thsw retired to the counsel
room, on the same floor, and Harry and
his mother remained together. There
was no one who overheard their con-
versation. The young wife returned TO
the prisoner after Mrs. Thaw had left
and remained with him few moments.

Cause of the Accident.

Salisbury. Eng, July l6.-The cor
oners inquest into the causes of the
causes of the wreck of the American
line express on Jnly l, in which twenty
four Americans lost their lives, was re-
sumed today. The directors Of the Lon
don & Southwestern Railway on which
the wreck occurred, state that they have
assumed full responsibility for the ac-
cident. That the high rate of speed at
which the engineer was driving the train
at the time the accident occurred, was
the cause OF the wreck was apparently
brought out at the hearing today. Major
Pringle, the governments inspector, who
has begun an investigation of the wreck
stated that the train was running be-
tween sixty and seventy miles an hour,
when it reached the curve and it was an
impossibility tor the wheels TO stick to
The tracks at such speed.
