Footwear claimed much attention at

great many high boots were seen, while
last year every one wore the pump. 1t Is
lite remarkable too, how few plain hose
are seen. In almost every instance fancy
lace striped silk or isle, embroidered or
lace inserted hose were noticed with high
boots as well as low oxfords, and the new
Gibson ties, which are cross between
the oxford and the pump.

that of matching the evening coat to the

one, and one which can only be INDUCED
in by the woman of unlimited means,
therefore, not a fashion to become COM
mon. Tafetas silk In soft, old-fashioned
buff shade Is used in the evening coat
of the picture, which Is really more a
cape than coat, for 1t is developed on
the lines of the chasuble. Wide pleatings
of the silk with large gilt buttons, cen
tered with mother of pearl are the only
trimmings. The shoulders extend out
far enough over the arm to simulate a
short sleeve. The woman who wore this
coat at a dinner given at the end Of
days racing at Belmont a week ago wore
a dress of Lansdowne In the same buff
shade, trimmed with cream lace and hand
embroidery In pale yellow and baby blue,
and her hat was a buif-colored erin braid
with white and creamy yellow plumes
and maline.

brilliant reds and greens, for the suit of
serge or mohair, and innumerable nov
elites for dressy wear, quite the most at

but in reality they are made Of a warp

most half way from the tips to the ferule
White, delicate pinks and blues are the
favorite colors, these combining well with

MIR. ROOSEVELT AND THE MIN.

He was called upon 20 modify or
withdraw mis- statements with refer

under Indictment and are about TO be
tried in Idaho for the assassination
of Ex-Gov Steunenberg.
President Roosevelt has responded
in "trip-hammer" style and he re-
iterates his assertions and thereby
brings down the lasting condemna-
ton of the Western Federation of
Miners. The motives Of the Presi-
dent may nave been all right, but it
must be conceded that he displayed
poor judgment IN expressing so
drastic an opinion on the eve of "a
trial where the life and liberty of
the men In question are at stake.
The crime with which they stand
charged is one of the most brutal
and cowardly in the annals of Grim

said half enough in condemnation OF
rIessrs. Haywood and Meyer. But
IS not it better to suspend judgment
until the evidence has been heard

they have had their day in court
