THE "SHARK PAPERS"

When the earthquake. and the fire which followed. devastated Kingston.

Few perhaps of those living today. or even of those who have visited Kingston itself. know the story of the famous Shark Papers and how they brought conviction to an American sea captain. It is a sort of Jonah and the whale story, with the corroborating evidence of the truth of the story to be found in the existence today of the head of the shark which figured SO prominent ly in the case. and which just in the nick of time supplied the evidence needed.
 If the papers. which the accommo- dating fish swallowed as they were thrown overheard. and later gave up after it had been caught by an Eng. fish gunboat are destroyed. there still remains the jaws of the fish to bear their mute testimony to the truth of as remarkable a sea tale. with its almos, miraculous coincidenees. as vas ever told

the stomach of the average shark is bound to contain evidences of his wicked and wayward life. And so it was in this case, for among other things found was a bundle of papers, the ap- pearance and condition of which in- dicated that they had not been long in the stomach of the big fish. for the inside of the roll was scarcely damp from contact with the water.
 Lieut.. Michael Fitton, commander of the boat, and into whose hands the papers were at once placed, instantly recognized their character, and sur missing that they had been thrown overheard by some brig when it had been captured, he started immediately for Port Royal.
 Lieut.. Fitton quickly acquainted the authorities with the new evidence which had so miraculously come into his possession, and the Nancy was again taken into custody. The case was tried at Kingston. where the true papers of the Nancy were put in evi. dence, and as a result the brig was confiscated and her skipper fined and sent to prison.
 So remarkable were the incidents in connection with this case that the pa. 1 pers were preserved at Kingston Lieut.. Fitton had the jaws of the shark mounted- They were for some time on display at Port Royal with this label written by the lieutenant at tachei:

Wide Range of Choice Allowed h These Pretty and servieeabls Garments - Short. .Waisted
 Effects Considered Smart.

It Is a difficult proposition to plan out a decorative scheme of any kind without including soutache braid, for it is found in silk upon cloths and silks and in linen upon the lingerie fabrics, not even batiste and fine lawns escaping its influence. Narrow white soutache ornaments many smart frocks of white and colored linen, and a very fine silk soutache in color is effectively introduced into the trimming scheme of certain smart frocks of white or ecru batiste. which. of course, have not even speaking acquaintance with laundering.
 The fact. however. that most of the lingerie dresses go to the cleans CTS instead of the laundry does not preclude the ultra-modish woman from having her quota of tub dresses, many of which are made of the sim plest dimities and sheer cotton fab rics. Powered materials as well as stripes are the rule in the realm oi cotton stufYs this year and they are gotten up regardless of cost For . lawn or null fine insertions of yalen ciennes with edgfng to match always seems the most appropriate trimming UnIined cotton frocks inset with Val enciennes arranged in bands and rueh ings are essentially French. and when exquisitely made are delightful Tiny tucks are also a usual accompaniment to lace trimmings. being very thy and of irregular length Then they are handmade. and this adds to ths cost of . frock. unless one has sucf dresses made at home by seamstresss. . who come in by the day.

In most Instances they reach the elbows, although some of the lat est models by the leading firms show long sleeves. the lower part being composed principally of lace bands joined together in innumerable artis- tic ways. Separate undercuffs of em- broidery look well with lace-trimmed sleeves and come in most effective patterns.
 Most of the trimmings for summer frocks, though complicated in effect. are easy of achievement. and the pret- tiest effects in tub dresses are carried out in plain white or in very delicate tones of blue. pink and green.
 Short-waisted effects are as smart for washable frocks as for dresser de- signs, and to gain this effect when other lines were originally intended. the sash of ribbon should be tied high in the back-or better. regular belt should be made which will hook in place and remain intact under any conditions.
