VIEWS AND GOSSIP Of NEW YORK
Latest Styles in Gowns Have APP
peared in New York.

New York, June 6.-Men and
brethren, we have been deceived.
! We have been shocked, scandalized
and outraged in our tenderest sensi-
bilities and wholly without cause.
| 1t is all due to the threatened in
yasion of the directoire gown. For
weeks the papers have been full of
descriptions of this garment. In the
| fast mail cables to the New York
journals, it was alleged that the re-
vival of this feminine costume had
shocked even the French capital and
given the blase Parasites of the
| boulevards the blind staggers.
| / need not recount with what mix
ed feelings of terror and alarm the
nale population received the news
| that the directoire gown was to in
wade New York and flaunt its shame
lessness before all Broadway. Strong
men wept at the tidings and many a
| heartfelt prayer was uttered, / hoped
that this degradation might be de-
MED us.
| Men and brethren, l repeat, we
| have been deceived. With my own
eyes | have seen it, gracefully dis

needless. There is nothing to it.
Rather, l shoold soy there is a great
deal more to it than advertised.
| To the earnest student of anato-
my, the directoire gown does not af-
| ford tenth of the advantages and
modern conveniences of the most
modest of bathing costumes. 1t is a
trifle snug, and, upon occasion,
might afford an insight into the fact
| that milady wears hosiery. This,
| however, is a suspicion already well
grounded in the minds of those who
have passed the Flatiron building ON
a windy day. In other respects, the
/ directoire gown is quite circumspect.
Our fears, gentlemen, have been
groundless.

MRS. B..YAN'S SPEECH.
Long Ago Merged Her Ambition With
That OF Husband.

New York, Oct. 27-Mrs. William ].
Bryan made her first speech of the cam
paign at a reception rendered her yes
terday by the Women's Democratic
club. When called on to speak, Mrs.
Bryan rose without hesitation and
said:
II might have felt confused, but for
the rule that exists in our family, that
during campaign time Mr.. Bryan is to
do all the talking. While / can make
no extended remarks there are two
things which 1 may touch on with pro-
priety. 1 may first bring you the
greetings of Democrats from the other
parts of the country. And although a
woman usually conceals her age, 1 shall
take you into my confidence and tell
you that 25 years ago 1 concluded there

HITS THEM HARD.
Joseph Ochsner. Dealer in White
Slaves, Given 2 Years.

Chicago, Oct. PA stunning blow
was delivered to the white slave"
traffic in Chicago yesterday by the
federal government, when Judge
Bethea imposed a fine of $4,000 on
Joseph Ochsner, and sentenced him
to serve two years in the government
penitentiary at Fort Leavenworth.
Ochsner was found guilty on a charge
of harboring Marie Schulkreft, an
alien woman, for immoraI purposes in
violation of the immigration laws. 1t
was also charged that he brought the
woman from Stuttgart, Germany af-
ter deserving his wife and children.
District Attorney Harry A. Parkin
urged the court to infiict the extreme
penalty upon Ochsner, which is five
years Imprisonment and fine of
$4,000, but the court declined on the
ground that he was doubtful about
the constitutionality of the law under
which the white slave" prosecutions
have been prosecuted.
Il won't inflict the extreme pen
atty said Judge Bethea. Before
such an action is taken the supreme
court should have an opportunity to
pass upon the constitutionality of the
law 1t will be called upon to do so
have no doubt"
