BLUSH|NG OCEAN
GROVE PUTS BAN
ON SHEATH SKIRT
Elders Object to Bifurcated and
DecOllete Suits OF Fair
Bathers.

OCEAN GROVE. July 22.-The fiat
has gone forth that no more shall
scantily clad bathers (bifurcated OF
sheath skirted) DO allowed to walk in
the streets or loll on the sacred sands
of this village, where the sea sings
prisons only and each tent. so the I'M
regenerate aver, IL provided with two
chimneys, one to facilitate the escape
of smoke and the other to hasten the
ascent of the prayers and hymns of
the meetin'ers.
There Is considerable diversity of
opinion as to whence came the decolete
and ballet-like costumes of the fair
sand bathers and the eel-like sheaths
of the men. One elder who has made
it his religious duty TO study the sub
iect from every angle (and curve) says
that in his opinion many of the suits
which now adorn the sand lollers were
evidently bought from the wardrobe
woman of some Coney Island musical
comedy. AS for the striped horrors
worn by the men, the elder declares
that in some instances they are put on
with a paint brush instead of with
buttons and button holes.
Excitement reigns in this tented town
today as a result of the findings of
the elders. The younger element of the
Grove stand out for the present style
of bathing dress and declare that they
will continue wearing low necks and
short sleeves and eel-like suits.

GROCERS IN STATE
SESSION PLAN TO

Means of Protection Against
Street Hucksters Discussed
at Plainfield Convention.
Especial to the Evening start

PLAINFIELD, July eat the forty
second s~emi-annual meeting of the
State Grocers' Association here today
there vas a lively argument on the
question of the association going into
politics. 1t was suggested that grocers
get proper protection only by
having representatives in the common
councils of their cities.
One complaint made was about IL
censes granted to hucksters who hawk
their wares among the regular custom
ers of the trades people. The fault was
not with the common councils, it was
said, so much as with the grocers them
selves, who might take more interest
in politics and help elect their own rep
resentatives.
Newark delegates present are j.

CRIME COMMITTED IN
WILLIAMSBURG PARK

NEW YORK, July 22.-Lured into the
summer house of Irving Square Park,
and then into it's boiler-room by an I'M
known man, it Is believed, a handsome
young woman was shot to death early
today. Her body was found by Patrol
man Rudolph Koehler. of the Hamburg
avenue station, after he had heard the
shot fired that killed her and a made
a short tour of investigation through
the small park.
The summer house is built in two
wings. The policeman found one of
them locked. but the other was open.
He found that the door to the boiler
room, which is between the two wings,
had been forced. By means of lighted
matches Koehler found the body lying
in the coal bin in the cellar and bleed
ing from a bullet wound In the temple.
No revolver was found near the body.
This fact, in addition to the circum-
stance that she died instantly, dispels
the idea that the woman may have
shot herself and crawled to the sum-
mer house to die.
There was nothing in the woman's
clothing to identify her, nor were there
any signs of q struggle or attack on
her. She was about "a, good looking
and tastefully dressed.
Irving Square Park Is in the Ridge
wood section of Williamsburg.

Too Dangerous.

Old Aunt Hepsy Garside never had
seen a moving-picture show before.
She gazed in speechless wonder at the
magic contrivance by which messen-
ger boys were made to move with
breakneck speed, BARRIERS to shave
their customers in less than a minute,
and heavy policemen to dash along
the street at rate never attained by
a living specimen, either on or off
duty.
1t was all real to her. She could
not doubt the evidence Of her senses.
All those things were taking place ex-
actly as depicted.
Presently an automobile came in
sight in the far background, moving
directly toward the audience at the
rate of at least mile a minute. Just
as catastrophe seemed inevitable, it
swerved aside, passed on, and disap-
peared.

Queer Furs.

This is cat fur" said the furrier.
1--WE use it for Innings. An excellent
lining cat fur makes, too. Dogs, calves,
colts, coons, opossums, bats, rats, any
animal that wears fur, in fact, is sal
able in the fur market. Bat hair is
felted up with other stuff into an imi-
tation skin. 1t is also used, l believe,
in rope plating. The dog, the coon
and the oppossum yield fur that,
properly treated, makes a very hand
some lining. Rat skins are employed
in certain delicate repairs, and they
also serve to form the thumbs of cheap
gloves. A queer thing about the fur
business is that the furs must be
taken in the dead of winter? the trap
per must work under the cruelest
climatic conditions; only thus is the
fur at it's best. The dresser, on the
other hand, who could work best in
cold weather, must do all his work in
the heat of summer, or otherwise he
would not be able to keep1up with the
changing fashions"

Home Life In Spain.

No hospitality can be more whole
hearted and far-reaching than that
which Mrs. Ellen Maury Slayden and
her husband enjoyed in Barcelona, and
of which she has written for the Cen
tury.
"One of the prettiest things in home
life all over Spain," she says, "is the
natural and kindly way in which the
servants are made part of the fam
lily. In the dons house the little
maids often took part in the conver,
sation, spoke to the guests, and asked
t!em to stay longer; and even the por,
ters and kitchen visitors popped their
red-capped heads into the door to say
the Spanish equivalent for 'howdy' to
the family, just as old negroes do in
the southern states"

THE WARPED SENSE OF HUMoR.

1t is big thing to be born with sense OF

The woman who cannot see joke, even at her
own expense, is to be pitied-and so are her fun

sides than humorism that falls fiat

But it is one thing to have a sense of humor and

Have you never been covered with embarrass-
