second money is worth $500. while
5000 goes to the third team in the

already entered, and it is probable
that total Of seven will be seen in
the game. The tournament this
year, as last, is open to teams from
New Mexico and Arizona, El Paso,
Texas and Trinidad, Colorado.
The magnificent record made by
the Trinidad team during the pres

ABOUT THE GLOVES
TO SAVE EXPENSE AND HAVE
NEAT APPEARANCE.
First gift" Has Much to Do with the
Life of These important Dress
Accessories-Proper Way
to Mend.

In the first place, the eft" has a
good deal to do with the life of
glove, and so, for this reason alone, 1t
will be worth while paying extra for a
pair that will be fitted to the hands
rather than buying haphazard a cheap,
er pair.
Fat fingers can not be forced into
gloves cut for slender ones without
bursting at the second wearing.
A well-ftting glove will be perfectly
easy on the hand, yet show no wrinkle
anywhere, and to be too large is quite
as bad as being too small for while
the tighter glove will be no more apt
to crack or split, the looser one will
become shabby sooner
Having exercised care in selecting
gloves, the same should be studied in
keeping them in good condition. The
well known glove mending sets are an
aid to this and a means of keeping all
the necessary articles together, for 1t
often happens that one might mend
gloves in less time than is consumed
in looking up the necessary articles.
A set of this kind includes threads
OF every wanted shade arranged in the
form Of broad braid, a small pair of
scissors, an emery and an enameled
darner. A small ball is attached to
one end of the darner, at the other is
an egg-shaped knob. This is used
when repairing rips in the fingers, the
ball being inserted to help in repairing
a hole. Cotton is always used for
mending gloves of kid or of Isle
thread but a silk glove member set
comes for silk gloves.
Needles are not included, but they
may be bought separately. For re-
pairing Isle thread or silk gloves any
ordinary sewing needle may be used.
but the kid ones will be mended
much heater if special needle that
comes for the purpose is used.
From the eye half way downward
the needle differs in no way from
other sewing needles, but the point
half has three sides instead of being
round. This makes a smaller hole
than the round needle, and as the
thread employed is so very fine it
does not fill up the hole formed by the
round needle passing through. So it
is best to use the glove or fur needle
They are about the same thing.
Rips in the seams of gloves are al
ways repaired on the right side, with
an overhanded stitch that is perfectly
simple. Surprising one does not pos
sess a darner, then it is better to in.
sert a finger than to hold the glove
TO be mended in the hand. The seam
will be fiatter and more flexible, while
repaired without such aid the result
is apt TO be a botch.

Aunt Susan's Heart Went Out Co
"Pore Missus Astor."

Uncle Eli felt he knew the metrope-
lis pretty well. Had he not been there
three times in four years-and twice
he had ridden on the elevated. So
when he brought Aunt Susan with
him Con the fourth trip he naturally
assumed the role OF guide.
She marveled at everything until
they sat down for luncheon. They
had gone into the Astor house for that
meal, but all its other 'marvels seemed
lost on the visiting country hostess, as
she looked open-eyed at the crowds
that filed not only the corridors but
the restaurants. Scarcely had they
found seats, when this amazemeat
took definite shape.

Demand for Soft silks

How far away we are from the old,
stiff silks that cracked and tore up
almost before they were made up!
The woman of to-day demands that
silks be soft, pliable and cling to the
figure so as to accentuate its lines.
She will not for a moment consider
the use of stiff, unwieldy fabrics.
This has resulted in the manufacture
Of exquisite chiffon taffetas that drape
as softly as crepe. OF these latter
there is an abundance to choose from
this fall. as well as the supple, bril-
liant liberties, which are being daily
more used for the wonderful creations
of the Paris modiste.
Tussor, the softest Of silk or silk
and wool, is almost always shown in
solid color, but sometimes appearing
in Pekin effects, with graduated
stripes, which offer splendid oppor-
tunity for novel combinations of
colors.

brother had not, after all. shown him
self false to the motto of your house.
Honor, my Sword, would you still
have refused to listen to me?"
"Ah, if, Mr.. Haddon!"
For almost the first time since / had
known her she smiled; and that faint
smile opened the gates of paradise
TO me. She would not be moved to
declare her love for me, but she did
love me; l was sure of It.
And then suddenly l thought of the
words of the Countess Sarahoff when
| made my escape by the ladder of
stones: Go, and l swear by the cause
| hold sacred, that, If you can save
Ferdinand, the honor of Sir Mortimer
shall be saved" That promise might
mean little. 1t might mean that She
would show her gratitude by refusing
to make public Sir Mortimers dis
grace. Or had her words a deeper
signifcance?"
But" / cried eagerly, nothing is
quite impossible. / repeat now what
1 said to you when in your grief
you asked me to meet the banker,
cannot believe in your brothers guilt
| cannot conceive how man whose
integrity has been undoubtetd during
a brilliant career should suddenly
stoop to the shame of taking bribes."
A fash of hope shone in Helenas
pale face, only TO be followed by
the deepest detection. "But there are
the proofs" she said, mournfully. Il
cannot, would that l could, deny my
brothers writing"
IL must see Madame de WARMER. A
few hours ago she held us at her
mercy. But now we have the upper
hand; there are many things she
must explain. Where is she?"
she left the chateau with Ferdi-

Correct Corsets,

Nothing can be more absurd than
to see, as one constantly does, a short,
stout woman, who by the aid Of
straight fronted corsets, has succeed
ed in SO frightening her waist line as
to get it apparently just midway be-
tween her toes and her shoulders. To
begin with, this really is not good
style, as the tendency of the moment
rather is towards the high WASTED
effect of the empire. At the same time,
this is a season of large liberty in
ones choice in dress, and well balanc-
ed figure-tall and slim, and yet well
rounded, being favorably suited by a
long wasted effect-can and wisely
does secure that end. The short, stout
woman should strive to establish a
proper proportion between the upper
and lower parts of her figure. She
should not allow her things to be
made too tight, nor her small stature
to be overpowered by large hat.

On Wit and Humor.

Man is the only animal that laughs
and weeps, for he is the only animal
that is struck with the difference be-
tween what things are and what they
ought to be. We weep at what
thwarts or exceeds our desires in seri-
Gus matters; we laugh at what only
disappoints our expectations in trifles.
We shed tears from sympathy with
real and necessary distress; as we
burst into laughter from want of SYM
