SEPARATE WAISTS.

waist seen recently was made In a
sort of folded bolero with fine cluny
lace down the V pointed front and back.
The sleeves were Of the lace over silk,
and all around was a fringe made Of
tiny silk ball buttons.
Tiny bows still continue to be in IA
vor in fastening the collars. Ribbon
is also made into regular string ties,
some of these having fancy silk tas-
sells at the ends. Small four-in-hands
are fancied and are neat.
For handsome warm weather frocks
white swiss muslins are certainly pret.
ty, dressy and easily made up. The
skirt is so fashioned that it resembles
somewhat the umbrella underskirt.
Each succeeding fiounce is wider than
the one above. These materials are
all richly embroidered in white. There
are some black linen lawns embroid-
ered in black silk in bold design, and
they make really elegant dresses. The
list of diaphanous and more solid fab
RIGS for summer wear is too great to
enumerate, but 1t seems that nothing
that ever was invented has been left
out. The washable ginghams are ex-
ceedingly neat and pretty, while the
lawns, dimities and other goods are all
useful and desirable. Most of the cot
ton goods are mercerized. which gives
them a shining surface like silk.
Speaking of shining silks reminds
me that some Of the silks for summer
wear are fairly metallic in their lus-
ter But there is a great reaction
against the dainty but fiimsy fabrics
of the last few seasons. There Will
soon be shown rich and superb silks
such as our mothers wore.

Some STATISTICS on crime.

The Popular Monthly for August
contains some figures on crime in
Chicago that should awaken the inter
est of every citizen
In an article by Maynard Shipley,
it is shown that Chicagos arrests in
1905 for murder and murdeTOus as
sauIts were 9416 to 100000 native
whites, but 1865 10 100000 foreign
whites
From this Mr.. ShipIey deduces the
conclusion that much of the crime in
large cities is due to the presence OF
immigrants, q far larger proportion,
indeed, tnan that which is due TO ma
tive born citizens. Ignorant and law
less aliens, he thinks, are the chief
menace TO our civilization.
Facts regarding New York seem to
bear out this statement. Between
1890 and 1906 the percentage of aliens
from Russia and Southern Europe in
that city rose from 80 TO 20 per cent.
In the same time arrests for homicide
rose from per 100000 in 1899 to ID
in 1900. and TO Isl in 1906
Still further confirmation is found
in the statement of a New York dep<
ITtv police commission that Of late
buTgIaries have fallen on at least 50
per cent and that hOmicides and
other crimes have considerably les
sened- This comes on top of emigTar
ton from New York city between Oc-
tober, 1907, and February, 1893, of 49,
600 aliens who had been residing
there.-ChicagO Journal.
