FAIRBANKS is OUT.
A Letter Definitely Refusing a Re-
nomination.

Chicago, June 1.-THE PRONUNCIATION
of letter from Vice President Fair
banks, reiterating his "irrevocable de-
termination" not to be again a candi-
date for the office he now holds, was
the most important development of the
day in connection with the vice presi-
dental nomination. The letter was
addressed by Mr.. Fairbanks to his
manager. Joseph B. Healing.
A similar letter was written by the
vice president to Senator Hemenway.
The vice presidents letter vas not diff
ferent from the various expressions
made in a less formal manner by him
the past few days. While he was ac-
cepted seriously and given full credit
for sincerity, the letter did not have
any effect in changing the determine
ton of his admirers to press his NOM
ination in the event of the naming of
Taft for the first place.
Accordingly there were as many pro-
phesies after the PRONUNCIATION of the
letter as before, that the vice president
would, in the end, be called to succeed
himself. 1t was confidently asserted
that he would not decline a unami-
general sentiment of those who have
been supporting the vice president,
largely outside of Indiana, it is a fact
that his close friends who have been
managing his candidacy for the presi-
dency, declare that the letter must be
accepted as definite and final, reliev-
ing him from consideration for second
place.
LATE Young. delegate at large from
Iowa, received a telegram today from
Secretary Loeb which stated that
President Roosevelt had not expressed
a desire to see Cummins' name on the
ticket, or any other person. Secretary
Loeb's telegram was in response to
telegram from Mr.. Young in which the
latter asked for an explanation of the
presidents attitude on the vice presi-
Dental nomination. Young. who has
heretofore been classed among the OPP
ponents of Cummins, said tonight that
he would do nothing to prevent the
latter's nomination.

cation behind the candidacy of Sher-
man. 1t is rumored that Chairman
Woodruff might after all present Sher-
mans name to the convention. There
was no formal decision in the matter
and tomorrow's developments may rad
ically change the whole situation. AS
the night waXed older there grew dis
position to attach more nearly decisive
Importance to the Fairbanks letter and
the feeling is prevalent that his posi-
ton might prove so truly irrevocable
that not even a unanimous nomination
could dislodge him.
This consideration encouraged Cum

other candidates, east and west.

BETTER THAN MASS OF FLOWERS
Handsome, Tall Lamp Makes Very
Effective Center Piece.

When families are in mourning
and they must dine, as we'll as any
body else-instead of flowers in the
middle of the table, frequently a hand
some tall lamp which will not inter
fere with the view is placed. Then
again, a tall plant in the middle, such
as a palm, is effective, and over the
cloth are scattered lunches of pink
roses. This was the decoration used
the other evening at dinner given by
Frederick Townsend Martin at the
Plaza. The idea is that the view shall
not be INSTRUCTED and the vase or re.
ceptacle must be quite tall. This
makes a much more artistic effect
than the former arrangement of an
immense mountain Of flowers and
ferns and greenery in the center Of
the table In large establishments one
must have at least one footman for
each two guests. A party of Il will
require six footmen with the butler
and frequently an assistant. All foot
men should match in height and be
over six feet if possible.-Vogue.

Velvet Collars,

Now that fashion advocates strict
ly tailor-made gowns to have velvet
collars on the coats, the question
arises how to keep the dark outside
collar from rubbing off On the neck
of the blouse worn beneath it.
No matter how good a quality IS pur-
chased, velvet will always leave a
soiled mark On any light fabric it
comes in contact with, and many a
woman is known to wiring her hands
in despair at the sight Of dainty
waist Immediately fresh except for
dirty line across the neck
To prevent this wipe off the velvet
thoroughly with a soft cloth slightly
moist, then rub with a rag saturated
in pure alcohol. This done once a
week regularly will prevent the velvet
from "crocking' and collars will not
be soiled in the back.

Sleeveless Coats.

One Of the most charming novelties
for the coming spring will be coats
heavily braided, but without sleeves
They hang loosely in plaits from the
shoulder, where they run into a point
and are fastened by a button. These
are made of linen, pique OF silk, as
the occasion may require, and usually
are Elton length. A few are of broad
cloth, in threo1uarter length. The
latter are used to wear over evening
dresses or for garden parties. (
They are best, however, when worn
over light blouse of net or lace, for
then the yoke and sleeves may be
seen, and give to the coat finished
appearance which in itself it lacks.

To Beauty White Hair,

White hair, unless given the most
careful and thorough treatment, will
become yellow and streaked.
Hair tonics containing glycerine are
likely to discolor white hair. Eggs
make an excellent shampoo for white
hair, and little ordinary bluing
should be added to the last rinsing
water. An excellent soap shampoo is
made as follows: Take one ordinary
ten-cent bar OF CASTLE soap, dissolve
in one quart Of water, and boil down
to a pint. When cool add one pint Of
bay rum, one tablespoonful of borax,
and 80 grains of bisulphate of qulnine.
This is not only cleansing but the
quinine and borax make it an excel
lent tonic.
