frock material and giving the idea that the
embroidery was done by hand. as it is in the
oostliest frocks showing such effects.
Naturally the applying must be done with
consummate skill or it will seem botchcd
and tawdry. but It is far easier to get such
work done than to have fine hand embroid-
cry done, and incidentally much less ex-
pensive. Tiny hand run tuoks used in pro-
fusion will go far toward giving daintiness
and cachet to a lingerie frocx. and such
work, while tedious is not beyond the powers
Of the average needlewoman.
The insetting Of lace bands, too, lis more
a matter Of time and patience than of skill.
and yet enough of such work added TO fine-
ness of materials will make charming
lingerie frock even without hand en-
broidery. Tiny buttons covered with the
batiste or linen are another fancy OF the
designers this season and are set up and
down the fronts Of grIimpes or cuffs.
Such little buttons entered into the de-
sign OF a pretty French lingerie frock which
is reproduced here and which was not OF the
most extravagant sort. though being an
imported mode It was priced high. In
reproduction it might be simplifed still
more. all hand embroidery being eliminated,
and yet be extremely attractive.
Irish lace Of the bolder sort Is combined
with the finest OF lingerie stuff and laces,
sometimes only the big crochet motifs being
used. while again whole broad bands, large
motifs. &c.. are called into play. This is
especially true In the lingerie costumes
with coats en- suite.
In some instances a whole coat Of the
Irish lace Is used with princess or En-
pire frock into whose design small motifs
Of the Irish lace are introduced; but though
this Ii an admirable arrangement because
the lace coat can do duty with various
other costumes, many Of the French de-
igners prefer to use some Of the frook
material with the lace in the coat. thus
marking that garment conclusively as
en- suite.
Some OF these loose coats are particularly
chic this season. taking the new lines in
stead of merely falling loosely like the lace
coats Of early. seasons. One French model
illustrated ON this page was especially
smart with it's little coat Of Irish lace bor-
dered throughoAf with lingerie hands.

IT PAYS TO GO TO CHURCH

II you are young doctor with all the
requirements of successful career except
patients you may find it pays to go to church.
This is true especially II you have COM
manding appearance and are on the job
when opportunity offers.
One young doctor. in Brooklyn found
this TO be true. He attached himself TO a
church with q large membership and was
assiduous in attending services. As he was
good looking his presence aroused remark,
especially among the women members Of
the congregation,
Becoming known is an important factor

Ths young girls are not trained to needle-
work as they once we're; and since the
supply Of needle workers decreases, the
prices they can command increases. The
drsssmakers. paying more for the work
themselves. charge the customer more

for good measure: and even so 1t is not
always possible to NIL orders. There are
not enough women to do the work.
The man who is probably the greatest
designer and maker Of high class lingerie
frocixs In Paris says mournfuily that in ten
years, or possibly in twenty years, a lingerie
frock in the sense that he calls frock by
that name will be practically unknown
because 1t will be impossible TO get more
than few OF them made In season.
Whether or not this pessimistic prophecy
10 true there are fewer really lovely lingerie
frocks on view this season than last sum-
mer and their prices are very highs
Yet every exclusive importer shows
a considerable number Of beautiful lingerie
models. and even In the large shops one
finds a few Of these high class models.
Study them carefully and you will note a
leaning toward broader effects. a substitu-
ton of inset lace, &C.. for fine hand en-

LAPORTE, IND, May 7.--Postpone-

against Roy Lamphere. accused of first
degree murder In connection with the
burning Of Mrs, Bella Guinness on1
her three children here April 2sth was
decided upon to-day at conference OF
officials OF Laporte county.
The identification OF another of the
bodies dug up from the Guinness farm
near here as that Of Ole B. Budsberg,
Of lola. VIA, and evidence that he,
Ike Andrew Helgelein. OF Mansfield,
s. d.. had been brought into Mrs. Bella
Guinness's net through ,"matrimonial'
advertisements. was one OF the Clarity
ing features of to-day's developments
In the complications Of the case. The
identification of the bundle OF bones
and flesh as the remains of Budsberg
was made by the mans brother, Oscar
H Budsherg.
During the sheriffs absence this af-
ternoon two men caused considerable
apprehension by breaking into the car
riage house on the Guinness farm,
where the nine cadavers have been kept
since their exhumation. The men raised
window on the south side OF the
building, and one OF them had already

discovered by a watchman. The latter,
D. M. Hudson, ordered the men away.
and sent a messenger to summon a dep.
uty sheriff from Laporte. The intrud-
ers disappeared before the officers arr
rived. and efforts to discover their
Identity were fruitless.
Volunteered information has been
pouring in on the authorities since
the case acquired such notoriety.
Among these communications received
day was letter purporting to come
from Mrs. Schorn, of indianapolis.
The writes said she had positive infor-
nation that Mrs. Guinness was still
alive and urged that attention be given
to the communication.
The explanation of the missive was
revealed when a detective agency ask

unraveling the mystery revealed by
Mrs. Shorn.

Opposition to the instruction plank
was voiced by Professor Alex. It.

Worcester, but his effort to obtain re-
consideration was ignored.
The main contest came up on the
selection OF four delegates, and prin-
cipally over the name OF George Fred
Williams, For two hours Fanueil
Hall resounded with shouts, cries,
speeches and motions from various
I;party leaders, and the chairman had
ditficulty in maintaining a semblance

platform.
Some of the speeches were extreme-
ly bitter, but all the speakers pleaded
for harmony.
A roll call on the question OF the
choice OF the four delegates by ac-
clamation was finally carried by a
vote of 40S to l52.
Previous to the meeting of the con-
lventlon there was a spirited contest
within the committee on resolutions
over the instruction plank, a conf
promise was erected. and while the
plank was retained, 1t was modified so
as to apply only to the four delegates
elected at to-day's convention. The

ttons to embrace the entire Massachu-
