Tulle plaltings are used on all sorts of
odd materials and are seen as a finish to

Pendant ornaments are much used as
wrap fastenings on the ends of sashes at

these ornaments are of Irich crochet, quite

MRS. COLT NOT
INJURED IN
ACCIDENT
1t Was Another Woman
Who Was With Far
{ Famed Husband. j,

NEW YORK, Sept. S.-The running down
of an automobile by a Sixth avenue trolley
car at Forty-sixth street last week has re-
vealed a pretty scandal, with a divorce
suit as a feature.
In the automobile was Clyde Colt, con-
nected with the firearms manufacturing
family, and a woman who said she was his
wife, and who had passed as such at the
Hotel Gallatin, which the two had left
shortly before the accident.
II now appears that the real Mrs. Colt,
whose maiden name was Grace Graham
has not been living with her husband for
some time, but she was not surprised to
hear that another woman was ~usurping
her title. In fact, she has known of her
husbands friendship for the woman, who
is said to have been a vaudeville actress
under the name of Cleo Lee before her
marriage for a long time, but it is the
name of still another woman which is
mentioned in the papers in the suit for
divorce which Mrs Grace Graham Colt
instituted some months ago.
When Mrs. Colt read in the newspapers
of the accident Of a week ago, in which
she was supposed to have been badly in
1ured. and began to receive commiseration
from her friends, she gave orders to her
lawyers to have the divorce suit hurried
along and then left for the country with
her S-year-old daughter Adelaide. She is
said to have the sympathy of her mother
in-law and h other members Of the hus-
bands family.
Oltcott Clyde Colt. or simply Clyde Colt,
as ne prefers to be called, has had more
than the normal amount of newspaper
notoriety which falls to the lot Of the
average man of IS years who is not in
public life. His first matrimonial venture
lin 1S95-with Sigrid T~horwaldsen, or
Dolly Raymond did not meet with the
approval of his family. He obtained q
divorce in 1896, and h next year married
Miss Graham.
Colt was arrested in February Of last
year on the charge that he was implicated
in the alleged swindling operations of the
Imperial Trustee Company Of New Jersey,
which had a scheme to enrich itself by
offering to prospective corporations clients
with millians of idle capital awaiting to be
invested. Colt has an office as a broken
at so Will street.

THE NEW BUTTON BAG.

Every season brings us a variety OF but
ton bags of different colors and designs. In
the sewing room one will find a number
of just such needfuls that are necessary for
the stitch at the last moment and when a
button is required. Besides the advantage
of a button bag that Is ever at hand, 1t
meets the demand for instant repairs and
serves a practical end.
To make an attractive object, the mate
rial can be simply a strip OF ribbon, either of
a pompadour pattern or of q richly colored
satin ribbon, figured or plain, and of any
tone or shade preferred. 1t is turned over
at one end and finished with a bag at the
other. The bag contains the buttons. The
turned-over portion is stitched down at the
proper distance to form a casing for a spool
of strong thread, and beneath the fringed
and embroidered end Is attached a needle
book of pure white fannel. in which there
are various sizes Of needles. This button
bag is exceedingly pretty in pink, yellow,
brown and red. and admits of any size to
suit the purpose given.

'dThe unions appeal &c the church to teach

visit them and are given opportunities to

for organized labor here is its chance; a
chance to urge its members not only to
seek for better wage and better hours,
but to render increasingly better work.
The greatest appeal made by the toiIers

The Golden toe

Yesterday, as the train flew up from
the country, the fields of golden ROD
unfolded themselves in all their glory
for our benefit, and we could not help
but close our books and look.
On every side, as far as we could
see, were clusters of the golden bloom.
In the distance 1t looked like a won-
derful green and golden carpet. but
at the edge of the track we could note
each little cluster, as 1t stood gaily
nodding toward the sun, which had
deigned to come out after several days
of hiding.
There is a great deal of meaning to
the golden rod, as there is in every
work of our Creator. This wonderful
golden glow, coming just as we are be-
ginning to sorrow for summer, seems
to contain a promise of other m
to come, and an assurance that when
we lose one joy 1t may be always fol-
lowed by another, if we will but have
II so.
Most people do not realize that their
Measure of happiness must come from
within themselves. When sorrow comes
to them, they give in to it, and let 1t
master them, instead of perking up
and looking around for other interests,
and after a while they become so soured
arc morbid that the other interests are
beyo their reach for all time.
