THE CAMPAIGN
 IN MASSACHUSETTS,
There Are Seven Candidates for Gov ernor Running on Nine Different
 Tickets.

Boston, November 3.-While the cam paign in Massachusetts for the annual state election has been carried on with far less spirit than for many years it has been attended by a number of un- usual features.
 There are seven candidates for gover- nor running on nine tickets, and about the same number of aspirants for other state offices.
 The candidates for governor are Curtis Guild, Jr., republican, who is seeking re- election; Henry M. Whitney, democrat who is also running on independent citi- zen and democratic nomination paper :; Thomas l.. Hisgen, Independence league; Charles w. Bartlett, anti-merger nomina- ton; Hevey s. Crowell. prohibition; John w. Brown. socialist, and Thomas F. Bren- nan, socialist labor.
 The democrats, splitting at Springfield. and placing two stickets in the field, are headed by rival candidates, Whitney and Bartlett, and has somewhat altered the original conditions for the democrats. The republicans are confident of success through the democratic disruption, but did not begin the usual efforts toward get ting out the party vote until two weeks ago.

WINTER FASHION DISPLAY

mensely effective. Seal and ermlne minl5 and sable, lynx and earacal, breitsehwanx x and seal, silver-gray fox and seal all are associated in the most effective manner ! and the heads and tails furnish trimming for the muffs and neck pieces. Sealskins. hold first place in the favor accorded to furs, and pony skin has attained a high pie and pliant that it Is being used very extensively for close-fitting jackets; and it still retains it's favor for motoring gar- ments. The coats for dressy wear with handsome gowns are sometimes made on kimono lines. and are elaborately em- broidered and trimmed with braid. To quote again from Mrs. Osborn
 "There is nothing that increases the indolent, regal charm of a beautiful wo- man. or lends distinction to a plain one to such an extent as furs. Load a wo- man with jewels and she will appear at best, like a jewellers show-window be- meath an arclight. Wrap her in furs and the most insignificant woman will be in- vested with something of the dignity of a queen" Women of wealth add to this regal effect by matching their personal furs with their laprobes. This will be- considered by the majority of people more of a display of wealth than of refined taste.
 It almost invariably follows that a great fur season IS also a great velvet season, and this year is no exception to that rule. Stamped, brocaded and ein- broidered velvets are among the richest offerings and their increased suppleness enables the makers to follow any design providing the lines are long and grace ful-and to use tucks, shirring, shocking or gathers, as the chosen model may re- quire. Dresses, coats, hats will be made of this beautiful fabric and everything that IS rich and beautiful will appear as trimming. Jeweled passementeries and embroideries, silver and gold stripes and figures, tufts of chenille and inserts of lace and other rich fabrics are but a few of the novel effects that are rrosnntod

 New York, November 2.-(Special )-You are familiar, of course, with that old contention of the philosophers that beauty is its own excuse for being. It raises a question that has been handed down un- answered through all the years that are past and is likely to remain unanswered through all the years to come-a question that holds the basic principles of ethics and esthetlcs.
 Philosophy and dressmakingl Truly, Horatio, bias bands and under-arm gores were never dreamt of in your philosophyl Yet you would not think it far cry If you had been called upon and challenged, as I have been, to meet the interpretation of vanity, friyolity and eXtravaganee that is placed upon the woman who seeks to express something of her own indi- viduality; something of her joy in life; of the love of the beautiful in her dress. Does it justify her in the extravagance of this luxury-loving age? Is beauty its own excuse for being?
 I do not pretend to be wiser than the sages of old but this I know: I look around me at the beauty of the world in the changing seasons-the glad green promise of the spring; the drowsy, lan- guorous, poppy-laden lure of the summer; {; and that still, awed hush of our white winter that seems to lay finger on the lips of earth itself; and in this arraying and adorning of the earth-mother, I find a prototype that bears on the subject we are discussing-a prototype that lifts the arrayment of woman from something silly, weak and vain to a sweeter, nobler, saner level. There is something very beautiful to me in womankind-"God g garden flower a quaint old poet has called them--and so I beg you, of your mercy, begrudge them not the outer beauty so freely granted to birds and fiowers-a beauty that makes this mad old, sad old world a better place to live in.
 A weighty sermon this! Ethics, esthet- ics and nature study as a preliminary

for what The discussion of furs and the new skirt trimmings. An anti-climaX2 There spoke the limited masculine intel lect and I bid you begone-go read your books written for strong men by strong men-I am poor weak woman writing for others like myself
 Mrs Osborn. in the November Delinea- tor, expatiates on the beauty and rich ness of the seasons furs. Never were such beautiful effects produced as now. the newest processes for curing the skins and dyeing the pelts, rendering them or unusual softness. luster and depth ot tone. Their pliabiIity presents possibili- ties in the way of trimming, too. and gives them an unwonted adaptability to the present modes. Mrs. Osborn says: T have been assailing for years the sur prising and stupid vogue of the clumsy fur-lined cloth coat, showing the fur merely in the collars and cuffs-a burden some affair from it's weight; and suitable only to severe climates because of its warmth" Further on in the same letter, Mrs. Osborn says: "I look on a woman as lacking in intelligence who is willing to hide the pretty. graceful lines of her figure beneath a shapeless mass of cloth and fur, and to utterly overlook and dis regard the unlimited possibilities of the fur itself"
 That 1t will be a fur winter there is no doubt, but, like everything else, furs have advanced in price, and those who already have their wants in this direc- ton provided for are to be congratulated. The New York horse show establishes the winter fashions for a large section of the country. and this season the most ex- quisite fur coats of all shapes and lengths were in evidence. Fur hats heavily laden with plumes and jewels lace gowns with trimmings of fur, muffs-not quite so large as last years and little more rounding in shape-and stoles, pelerines, collars, capes and collarettes gave touch of richness to the scene that noth- ing else could have contributed. The l cnrnlnina tinns of f1rs are unusual and in-

DIR. p. ME ALLEN IS SHOT AND KILLED BY THOMAS S. BUSH. THE MEN HAD BEEN CLOSE FRIENDS.

Nashville, Tenn, November 2.-West Nashville, a suburb, was thrown into great excitement this afternoon when Dr. P. McF Allen, prominent physician, was shot and killed. just as he was pre- pairing to step into an automobile, by Thomas s. Bush, one of the best known young men in the suburb.

 q hate to do it, but I am going to kill you" He then fired the fatal shot. Bush declines to talk, and so do tue friends of Allen.
