tons or hooks and loops. These loops
are used both for small buttons and
for hooks and are put on the collars
of lingerie blousesy.onI baby clothes,
and other sheer garments. When they
are to be used for buttons they are
put at the extreme edge of a hem or
band and sometimes they are placed
on the underneath part of a hem
when it has been folded over and so
ner. They are made by arranging
loose threads of a certain length to
form a-loop large enough for-the but
ton to pass through. Use strong sew
ing cotton and fasten on by passing
the middle between the folds TO the
edge of the band. Make it quite firm
by taking a scanning stitch on it and
give 1t a Jerk to test 1t. Now take a
stitch like a scanning one as far dis
tant from, the first as the diameter
of the button. and draw the cotton in
to within three-quarters or half an
inch from the first stitch. Keep this
loop around the f%orefinger and make
another n by taking up the first
stitch again, which Of course takes
the needle back to the right of the one
last made. Repeat this four or five
times, keeping all the loops the same
length over the finger. Let the last
stitch come on the right hand side, SC
that when the work is turned around
for the loop to face the worker II
becomes the left hand. Holding the
work with the loop toward the body
pass the needle under the loops with
the point toward you and pass the
single thread to the right under the
needle. This will make a puzzled edge
at the top Of the loop. Continue THU
from right to left and finish OF Sc
curely. Loops for hooks are made II
a similar MANNER, but the strands are
drawn. much tighter and they are
made a quarter of an iuch or so from
the edge of the hem.

Pretty Model for stout-women.

Recently a smart model in a coat
suit was seen. 1t was made up from
the bordered goods that would be be-
coming to a stout, elderly woman, pro.
vided she were not too stout.
The skirt was pleated in four groups,
with the border forming the hem, and
the coat was barely half length, cut
into four points at the lower edge,
breaking UP the straight line-an ex-
cellent fashion for stout figures. This
decorative portion of the material also
trimmed the fronts Of the coat. the
cuffs and the neck. The sleeves were
coat shaped.

Seasons Novelty.

One Of the novelties Of the season is
q line of linen just inside the evers
of a jacket, which gives 1t a clean and
neat appearance that nothing else so
small could possibly do. This is really
avery good idea, and n that may be
carried out in many attractive ways.
For instance, If ones suit were a plain
black and looked too dark for the sea-
son, one might easily add a little line
of, cerise or megneta, which would
brighten the whole and take away that
mourning look to which 30 many peo-
pie object. Linen bands are especially
used on suits for girls between u and
18 years. 80" hA -

STEAMER ON ROCKS.
Star of Bengal Loses 10 of Grew and
Big Salmon Cargo.

Seattle, Wash, Sept 23.--Advice:
last night from Alaska by the United
States signal corps say that 10 men
including nine whites, were drowned
in the wreck Of the American bark
Star of Bengal, on Coronation island
west of the Prince of Wales archi-
pelago.
Twenty-seven Of the vessels crew
and passengers were saved. The Star
Of Bengal belonged to the Alaska
Packers association, and was on her
way to San Francisco with a cargo
of $4,000 cases of salmon.
In addition to her crew she carried
100 Chinese and Japanese who were
employed in the canneries of the
company and taken aboard at Fort
Wrangel.
The Star of Bengal took aboard
cargo at Fort Wrangel, consisting Of
canned salmon, and started down
Summer strait in tow of the tugs
Hattie Gage and Kayak. AS the YES
sells neared the open sea, where the
sailing craft would have sea room to
work off shore, the wind was stead
lily freshening, blowing on shore. The
tugs struggled valiantly to keep the
ship clear of the rocks, but the wind
drove it down on the rocks lining the
shore of Coronation island, which lies
at the mouth of Iphigenia bay, and
to save themselves from destruction
the steam vessels were forced to cast
off the lines and head out to sea.
The Star of Bengal went onto the
rocks in such a position that the tugs
could not get near enough to give any
assistance, and the Gage headed for
Fort Wrangel with news of the dis
aSter.

RUSSIANS DIE BY HUNDREDS
Official Reports Don't Account for All
Cholera Victims.

St. Petersburg, Sept. 23.-Up to
noon yesterday the municipal hos
pitals reported for the preceding "a
hours AT cholera cases and 176 deaths.
There is total of 1887 patients in
the various hospitals.
That the municipal. statistics are in
complete is conclusively proved by
the number of interments. At one
cemetery they aggregated 424 for the
last three days, or within 20 of the
total number of deaths reported.
The cholera dead are being inferred
at Preobrazhenskoe, which is about
one hour distance on the railroad A
train of several coaches, carrying the
mourners and dozen freight cars
with the dead in rude coffins, goes
daily to the place. The scenes are
heartrending in the chapel, where
service is conducted uninterruptedly
night and day.
The scarcity of gravediggers has
caused a painful delay in the past few
days, $50 coffins containing bodies
now being stored in the adjoining
woodshed. Some of the mourners
have been waiting their turn for sew
eral davs.

TUGBOAT MEN CURVED.
Captain of Star:of Bengal Says Crew
Gould Have Been Saved.

Wrangel, Alaska. Sept. 24.-One hun
dred and ten whites and Chinese were
swept TO death when the cannery bark
Star of Bengal broke to pieces on Coro-
nation island. Twenty seven, including
Captain Wagner, were rescued and are
now here, physical and mental wrecks
from the terrible exposure and hard
ships which they underwent.
The seafaring annals of the Pacific
coast have no more horrid record than
the destruction of the ill-fated bark and
the deaths of the men who were carried
away while two tugs stood by.
Those tugboat captains should be
sent to prison for cowardice." gasped
Captain Wagner as he was brought
ashore Unable to sit up and with voice
sunk to a hearse whisper, the captain
of the wrecked bark cursed the masters
of the Hattie Gage and Kayak as cow
ards, who, he said stood by and saw
human being perish by the score when
they. could have saved every one of
them
Sobbing like child. the captain of
the Bengal told how his vessel was al
lowed to drift on the rocks while these
tugs stood by without making an effort
TO rescue her until she broke into three
pieces.
They cut loose from us and ran like
the towards they are and let us go to
certain death. We were in 10 fathoms
of water. The wind was not blowing
hard and they could have held on to
us as we'll as not. We were in plenty
of water for four hours while they were
standing by, and we hoped every min
ute that they would come alongside.
For four long despairing hours we
burned blue lights, hoping against hope,
and those towards hung off in fear and
saw good men swept away. We blew
upon the rocks and pounded to pieces.
