Club Notes.
LiRht OutInr suIta,

The wardrobe of the well groomed sum
mer girl Of 1907 will include some rather
elaborate outing costumes. and among
these the tennis gown Affords the greatest
possibilities. White or light colors are
preferable, plque, linen. tussore of eros
grain will all be much used the grosgraIn
coming in very strong Just now. The skirt
should be fun and swinging free at least
three inches from the ground, and the
pleats stitched down just far enough to
confine the fullness so It win not
swing under the feet as II dips.
OF course. these are jacket suits and the
coat may be slipped on and on as desirable.
Some dainty blouses OF colored silk in
blue rose hsliotrana or the browns are =oTu
with these white suits. They are cut with
the half low collars and Peter Pan sleeves
and are worn with belt 70 match and the
tie to match the skirt. The color Of the

hats are made OF linen In colors or white

The heavy quality OF Chinese silk. such as
Engiishmen and Americans wear IN the

linen and lace and a ciel blue in the same
sort of stripe had a hand made openwork

was trimmed In corn colored taffetR en-
broidered in self-tone soutache and was of
the three-piece order, the bodice being
chiefly OF cream lace and the little sleeve

broidered all over in fine silk soutache. A

this same black and white silk appeared
upon the bodice sleeves and at the girdle

Still another chiffon wolfe was OF 30 faint

made over a white silk, striped in onion
brown. The chiffon was embroidered in
self-tone and touches OF several shades OF
light yellow brown were introduced In the
trimming.
Simpler wolfe frocks than these are nu-
merous, but these descriptions may give
some slight idea of the things that are be-
Ing done with sheer veilings.
The other sheer stuffs are often treated
IN much the same way as the voiles and

the Parlsians. Striped stuffs In which one

CHURCH PLANS LOOK GOOD
Specifications for Christian Science Build
ing Presented to NsmberL
SOME MINOR CHANGES NAY Be MADE
Alterations Are suEEested Because OF
the Increase Cost in Structure
Decided on By Con-
EreEntion.

The tentative plans for the proposed new
church for the Christian Scientists were
exhibited and explained Wednesday even
ing at Chambers academy by Architect
Frederick Clarke to a large number OF
members Of the congregation. The plans
were shown by a stereopucon and the
members present thanked Mr. Clarke for
his unique presentation OF the proposed
plans. The specifications will be submitted
TO the building committee of the church
for acceptance or alteration and 1t is prob
able several changes will be made.
As originally planned an expenditure OF
only $4,000 for the new church was con-
templated. but the cost of the present
structure would be about $4,000. and
changes may prove necessary.
The present plans, as outlined in The
Bee few days ago, provide for the cree
ton OF a magnificent church edihce. The
building will be along subdued classic
lines, with large portico and entrance.
an ample dome on the roof and large
auditorium on the second floor of the
structure. with the Sunday school and re-
firing rooms on the first floor.
Artesian Wen for Hotel.
For the purpose OF drilling an arteslan
we'll to furnish a supply Of water for the
new Rome hotel, derricks are being erected
near Fifteenth and Howard streets by the
contractors, who drove the artesian we'll
for the now Young Mems Christian associ-
alton building and work will begin as
soon as the engine and driving machinery
lie rugged.
The success attending the arteslan we'll
OF the Young Mems Christian association
which was driven to depth of i.134 feet and
furnishes a large flow OF pure water, at
tracted the consideration by Rome Miller
OF the well for his new hosiery. The we'll
II is said. would be matter Of great
economy for the new hotel, which will use
large quantities of water and the initial
expense In installing the we'll would be
more than offset by later dement's derived
Architect Latenser Is doubtful II a suf-
hcient flow of water can be obtained by
the artesiRn well, but is hopeful that the
we'll will equal or Surpass that OF the
Young Mems Christian association by
giving a surface flow. This ls not had from
the association we'll on account of the
| elevation of the building site and It is
necessary to pump the water several feet
from below the surface by a compressed
air pump.
The Rome hotel Is situated on much lower
ground and. for this reason, It is deemed
probable a well with a surface flow can
be secured.

VOGUE OF THE FlLMY STUFF
New Temptation TO Women In Spring
FRsbiOns-LOvely, but Not
Practical.

Il takes a strong minded woman to be
practical IN regard to her shopping this
spring on every hand are temptations to
extravagance, and the impractical fabrics
and frocks are so bewitchingly lovely that
It Is difficult TO remain coolly calculatiye In
their presence.

mushroom hat with the wide back brim
and the cataract OF dropping plumes will
be appropriate only with a toilet Of ex-
actly the right artistic character2 One Is
tempted and suceumbs in haste to repent at
leisure-h repent one does.
The sheer silky stuffs are the most at
tractive fabrics OF the season and large
majority OF the materials most used for
dressy frocks are OF this character. Mar
auisette, silk mousseline, chiffon cloth and
a host OF new weaves concerning whose
names even the saiesfolk are In the fog are
being sold In enormous quantities, not only
IN light colors but In dark shades as well
and for simple hOcks as well as for more
elaborate ones.
OF course none OF these nlfny SIX or part
silk materials viii give such service as one
can obtain from a ehiffOn wool wolfe. Some
OF them viii wear fairly well and though
they crumple readily, can always be fresh
sned by pressing. but even the sheerest OF
the WOOL voiles-and that means texture
almost as cobwebby as that OF MARI uisette

little even under the most careless handling.

but wolfe while It may be made dainty
enough for formal occasions, may be worn
at many times when a silk of the radium
type would seem too elaborate.
The one-tone fine stripes and checks In
the very sheer voiles are particularly well
liked and the most fashionable dressmakers
are making up innumerable frocks in such
materials and In the extremely light shades
white, ecru. straw color, rose, the deli
cate blues and mauves and grays and
greens. etc There are good effects, too, In
the two-tone voiles with fine line stripes
and checks but these are considered hardly
30 chic as the one-tone checks and stripes.
Several of these thin wolfe costumes were
in hand In the work rooms of one OF the
most successful dressmakers last week,
and were examined with considerable In
terest, because of the fashion in which
they combined modishness and utility.
Three of them were three-piece models,
having skirt, bodice and little coat but
the bodice in each instance was chiefly of
lace and lingerie material and the coat
was a vague fanciful little affair scarcely
deserving the name of coat.
Some Smart Models.
One model in a delicate hydrangea blue
was in plain wolfe, trimmed in taffeta
silk and dyed flet lace. The skirt had
deep hem Of taffeta beaded by band Of
blue hlet of handsome darned-in design,
and the upper edge of the lace was outlined
by a narrow band of the silk, above which
were set I'VE other narrow bands at three
quarter-inch intervals, the group OF narrow
bands, taken together. achieving a width
equal to tina; of the deep silk hem.
At certain repeated figures in the design
Of the lace band were set tiny pendent silk
tassels of blue and whts. The bodice of
dyed filet was trimmed in bands of silk
and little tassels and a very short loose
kimono coat of wolfe, trimmed to match
the skirt and showing almost the entire
bodice sleeve Of blue hlet and creamy
valenciennes. added to the picturesqueness
OF the costume rather than 10 its warmth.

TILLMAN DIDN'T

) Truth in Story That He
Wanted Duel With
Dolliyer.

JACKSON. MICH, July 5.-A story
sent out from this city to number Of
Eastern papers, stating that Senator
Tillman, while In this city, challenged
Senator Dolliver to a duel rs regarded
here as q pure fabrication. Senator
Tillman lectured here Wednesday even
ing and left for the South before Sena-
tor polliyer arrived to deliver lee
ture Thursday evening
The duel story hangs upon q severe
criticism Senator Dolliver made OF the
South Carolina Senator In his lecture
last night. Senator Doll!vers Is quoted
as saying:
"Men OF such type as Senator TILL
man. who openly boast of violating
the law, who are instrumental In the
murder of hundreds of black men, and
who preach anarchy, should. be behind
the prison walls"
The duel story was to the effect that
the two Senators met In this city to-
day and became engaged In a heated
conversation over Senator Delivers
remarks, Senator Tlllman finally chal-
lenging the Iowa Senator to duel.

Edward Sims Entombed in Pit

BY the sudden caving-in OF the Sides
of n twelve foot hole at 1880 o'clock
yesterday afternoon, Edward Sims. u
white laborer, was entombed fully
twenty minutes before he could be res
cued from his perilous position.
Sims was shoveling dirt from the
hole, which is being dug at Twentieth
and Main Streets to place some gas
pipe. Two other men were on the
ground above taking the earth away
from the mouth Of the hole. The pit
is about five feet long and four feet
wide, and when the collapse OF the
walls came 1t was filled, and Sims was
buried alive. being completely covered
by the fallen earth.

Immediately set about to rescue him,
and they shoveled frantically. The two
laborers knew that 1t was but a ma t.
Of moments before life would be-
come extinct In their entombed COM
panion and, with perspiration coming
in great drops from their brows, they
toiled with all their might until the
man's head was discovered about four
feet from tho surface.
Then the dirt was carefully scraped
from Sipls's head and shoulders. and
It was found he was still breathing,
though greatly exhausted from lack OF
air Fortunately the earth was not
packed about him, and between the
particles Of dirt there remained sufii-
cient air to last him for a few mo-
ments Otherwise he must have died
before he could have been dlslnterrcd
After Sins's head and shoulders were
exposed, the laborers, with the aid OF
another Mr.. Sims, placed rope he
meath his arms. and, with much effort
managed to hoist him from the pit.
The digger was considerably bruised
about the body, and both knees were
badly hurt. He was attended by DR.
Arthur B. Cosby and then taken to his
home at Seventeenth and Washington
| Streets.
Mr.. Sims had watch In his pocke
| ut the time OF the collapse, but 1t never
stopped running
The other laborers continued their
! work of excavation. though with more
pretaution to guard against secont
accident.
