VFashiorl Hints

NEW YORK, March 13.-Thesuit
that will be most popular for spring
and summer is the Prince Chap
style, the coat cutaway in front and
pointed in back. This is not a
sharp point, by any means, but it is
& change from the square back and
front The 30-inch length will be
the favorite. The skirt will, most
generally be plated with one wide
fold near the hem. A dark blue
chiffon broadcloth was made by this
model, trimmed with black soutache
and buttons, in two sizes. The coat
was bound with the braid which was
about an inch wide. The buttons
were oval, in light cream color and
were twice crossed by a band of gold
and of blue that matched the broad
cloth.
they have been the past season.
They are rounded in front, medium
height in back and generally point
ed and wired on the sides so that
they come right up to the ears.
They are very elaborate In most
cases, for the beauty of gown cen
tiers chiefly in the stock. The finest
and most beautiful lace Is used and
hand-embroidered is charming and
novel. Sometimes this embroidery Is
done in colors of various tones that
are seen in the gown. Others show
tiny rosebuds in raised embroidery
with a sparkling bead in the center
of each. Tiny black bows caught in
gilt or silver buckles gives touch
of color, and are noticed on many
stocks and guimps.

COMPLAINS AGAINST SOUTHERN.
Negro Passenger Alleges He Was
Disseminated Against.

Washington, d. c. Post, Sept. 4th.
Winfield +. Cozart, colored Of At
lantic City, n. J., yesterday filed a
formal complaint with the interstate
commerce commission against the
Southern Railway Company, in which
he charges that the company dis
criminated against him and his wife
while they were passengers on train
from Atlanta to Washington, by
compelling them to ride iE a Jim
Crow" car.
He states that men and women
were crowded together in a smoking
compartment, which was unsanitary,
and that towels. soap, and other con-
veniences furnished white passengers
We're denied him and his wife. He
asked the commission to issue an
order requiring the railway company
TO furnish the same accommodation
TO Negroes as is furnished to white
persons.
The commission, about a year ago,
decided that railroads could segre-
gate colored passengers. but must
provide for them the same accommo-
dations as for white passengers.
