Lancaster Herald: The twelve year
old son of Henry Schmitz, living three
miles south of the Hurricane, met with
a bad accident last Thursday. He
was over at John Peterson's watching
the PetersoE boy moving, when in
some manner got in front of the now
er and before he could get away was
caught. Before he could extricate
himself both bones of the left foot
were completely severed above the
ankle. An attempt was made that day
to save the foot but it proved useless
and on Sunday morning it was found
necessary to amputate it. This was
done successfully and the boy is now
getting alone as well as can as can be

PARIS. july IS.

PARIS. july Is.
TINE "Grande semaine"-which be-
gan with the steeplechase at
Auteuil. was continued with the
Course des Hates and the Journee des
Drass and ended with the Grand Prix
at neutrality-suspicious. an unparal-
leled gathering Of beauty and fashion.
All Paris attended every ono of these
fashionab BILE meetings. and. from a glance
at the colors worn. It Is safe to say the
shades that will be most in evidence this
summer at all the smart watering places
will be amber. willow green and the new
lavender blue. which is SO much seen
on hats and parasols. In fact. 1t is quite
the "dernier cri' for this season.
OF course. there were in evidence many
OF the much-talked-of Directoire gowns,
but It seems as though 1t were more q
trying out Of a new style than the
actual achievement of its popularity.
The general impression is that the mo-
ment Is a kind OF transition time. The
clinging style seems to be taking little,
and SO does the ''monseigneur'' effect.
Both are good. and both are expected to
have some influence on the styles OF tho
coming fall and winter, although 1t Is
impossible as yet to say exactly what
~ he ov.t
fashion worn by the manikins at tho
first Of the Longchamps races will be.
Summer dresses are all marvels of EN-.
broidery and old lace. with guipure ap-
piled here and there to add to the gen.
eral appearance Of richness. There arc
dresses of supple satin in "Consulat"
style. with waist sashes knotted in front
and belinda creation of "Cheruits."
The colors of these are pewter gray,
royal blue and black. In carrying out
the idea Of drapery a great quantity of
fringe Is used. and it adds much to the
grace or the gown. A sort o. faded
amethyst Is popular at the murDsa at. and
some are bold enough to say that IL will
remain in favor during the fall and
winter.
The 'monseigneur'' idea was carried
out still more extensively at the Grand
Steeplechase. The chasubles are of filet
net embroidered with silk soutache
braid. and they fit loosely. though with
no fulness. over tho gown of supple
satin. Although all such gowns. even
here, seem a trif1e ultra, they are never
theless beautiful and they have brought
with them the return of many of the ac-
cessories that were in fashion during the
consulate and directory.
