OAKLAND, Calif., May 26.-Three large dwelling houses, built by James l.. Gallagher, the prosecutions star witness in the bribery graft cases il. this city, were wrecked by dynamite tonight shortly before midnight. The houses were in course of co1sruc- tion, almost completed, but not yet occupied
 A heavy charge d dynamite was placed in the kitchen of the larger oi the three houses, and threw the build, ing of its foundation and almost completely wrecked it. The other two houses were badly shattered while many windows in the neighbor hood were broken by the shock.
 John Rollins, a watchman employ ed by the contractor building the houses, was sitting in small shack near the houses and was thrown tc the ground. He stated to Captain oi Detectives Peterson that he went through the three buildings shortly before the explosion occurred.
 It is said Gallagher was negotiat ing a deal today for the sale of tho houses for s25,000.
 Several weeks ago Gallagher home in Oakland was blown up ant badly wrecked at night, while ho an' his wife and several friends were il the house and narrowly escaped SC rious injury.

WASH BLOUSE RETAINS FAVOR
Wise Buyer Will Lay in Stock of
 Shirt Waists Now.

Another summer is heralded by the shirt waist sales. Too convenient, too dainty and too becoming to lose, the wash blouse Is with us to stay. Two leading styles mark the summer out look, the man-tailored shirt and the lingerie blouse. The heavier linens, the madras and the cheviots are utilized in the former and the Paris lawns, Persian lawns, Victoria lawns, mulls and swisses in the latter. With no real winter behind and possibilities of cold February it may seem early 10 lay in a stock of shirt waists, but the sales are on and 1t is wise to take time by the forelock and get the choice of the display. Thrifty buyers know that the first output of waists early in the season show the best de- signs at the best prices, and now is the time to buy. The prices are no higher than other years and designs in the lingerie waists decidedly better than last year, not quite so elaborate and more elegantly simple.

For pressy Frocks.

Meteor satin, light in weight, in tones of Nattier blue, peach, salad green, Nile, yellow and other delicate shades, is being much used at the mo, ment for dressy frocks. Sometimes f is trimmed with motifs of embroidery done with extremely narrow silk rib, bon and the designs are then framed with silk braid. These motifs are used on the coat and often little embroid. cry to match appears at the foot or bottom of the skirt. This embroidery is very expensive, as 1t takes a lons time to do it, the ribbon and brsi. being worked on to the grown mats rial.

Practical Hats.

Satin, silk and lace hats are now regarded as the most practical Of all as they may be worn the year round and in any climate. When plain satin, moire, taffeta or corded silks are used they are cut 0n the bias, stretched and glued over the frame in order to fit as snugly and smoothly as wallpaper
 All these fabrics will be greatly in evidence during the early spring, and more or less worn throughout the en- uing summer, notably with tailored lightweight cloth or rough silk coat and skirt suits, and among the novel ties certain to be popular with the younger feminine generation are the moderately sized hats with brims faced with striped silks in contrasting colors, such as navy and white, brown and tan or black and mauve.

IN WATERS GRIP
 FORT WORTH IS HELD
Not A Railway Wheel Is MoV- ing, Nor Is Any Effort
 Being Made,

FORT WORTH, Texas, May 26.- In the grip of the most remarkable flood which swept down the Trinity river at this point, not railway wheel is moving, nor is any effort being made, every energy of the railroad officials ping bent toward saving the tracks and bridges, in the vicinity of Fort Worth.
 The Trinity river sweeps in a great arc around Fort Worth, surrounding the twon on three sides. Across 1t there are dozens of railroad bridges, and today none are considered safe for traffic.
 The waters show no disposition to recede, and every hour piles up dam age. Hundreds of cottages and humble homes in the low lands along the river are yielding to the greedy flood and floating down stream, carrying the whole fortunes of the un- happy owners.
 There was. no loss of life today.

One Lace In lInnerie.

It seems America did not take kind ty to the idea of combining two or more kinds of lace in lingerie. At any rate, but one kind is a rule now, and tome of the~most expensive pieces have no lace at all, unless it is a mar. row edge, but depend exclusively upon beautiful embroidery for artistic ef- feet. Where scallops are a part of the decorative scheme, not infrequent- Iy they are first outlined with a closely gathered frill of lace, with a ruffie or the null or wider width of the lace pattern the depth of the scallops set underneath, serving as back ground for them.

Physicians say that reading aloud is one of the best of exercises.
 Be extremely careful these days, with grip rampant, not to get the feet wet. More colds are taken through the feet and ankles than in any other way.
 It is not a bad idea to have a slice or two of lemon in glass beside ones bed. In the morning cool water, which has been standing in a covered pitcher, can be poured over the lemon and drunk before arising.
 While lemon and water is an admir- able drink for anyone who is not troubled with oyeracidity care must be taken that 1t is not too strong. 4 slice or two of lemon, or, at the most half lemon, is quite enough for a tumbler of water.
 Do not think you are strong enough to wear low shoes on the street in winter. It apparently may not hurt you now, but it is laying the seeds of weakness that with the first heavy cold or rundown condition will bear bitter fruit.
 Making a Bib TOT 5abyL
 Of all the things that handkerchief are made into there Is nothing pret ter than the baby bibs. The hand kerchief is folded diagonally in half, not quite through the middle, as one corner should hang little above the other when done. Then cut out and shape the neck, finishing it either with plain French seam or with dainty edge of fine lace. If the baby's mono gram is worked on one corner the bib will be so much prettier. Half of one of the oil silk dress shields is pasted underneath the bib to make 1t waterproof.

In some parts of Hungary 1t is the custom for the bridegroom to pay a sum to the brides parents, and in case the parties cannot agree the mayor acts as arbitrator. Mayor VoIked, who is a cattle dealer, has had to decide case of this kind, and after inspecting the bride decided that the bridegroom must pay the parents at the rate of half a dollar for each pound that the bride weighed. This verdict was accepted, and the woman weighing S6 pounds the bridegroom landed over the equivalent of s4S. after which the wedding ceremony V-a- reformed

Rheumatism and Meat Eatinq.

A great many medical authorities lake the ground that rheumatism is peculiarly the disease of the flesh eat sr, and the theory is strengthened by the fact that the further you go south the less rheumatism you find, until when you get into the tropics, where l vegetable food is the rule and peo- ole eat very little flesh of any descrip- don, there is hardly any rheumatism.
