ELKTNs MATCH OFF.
Senator Denies Daughter Is to Wed the
Duke Of the Abruzzi.

Washington Nov. l7.--Nliss Katherine
Elkins and the Duke Of the Abruzzi are
not engaged There is something more
than rumor to support this statement.
Senator Stephen B. Ellcins has him
self denied the existence Of an engage
ment with the consent of his daughter
and has said that he hopes there will
now be an end to the rumors which have
rife for some time concerning Miss 81.
kins and the duke, causing a great deal
of ANNOYANCE to both families.
The statement made by the senator
was given out here Sunday night
When he denied an engagement he
made it plain that he respected and ad.
nired the duke, although he did not
know him very we'll He declined to
explain himself further than to say that
an engagement did not exist and refused
to deny in positive terms that an ''un-
derstanding" exists between his dangh
ter and tie royal Italian. The senator
dictated the following:
II do not care to say anything further
than that my daughter and the Duke
d'Abruzzi are not engaged to be married,
and regret exceedingly the annoysnee
that must have como to the duke and
his family by reason Of the almost daily
discussion Of the matter in the press and
the constant publication Of rumors for
so long a time-rumors which ! venture
to hope will now cease"
The senator then went on to say that
he was not very well acquainted with
the duke, adding, but from what know
and have heard Of him / regard him not
only as a distinguished personality by
reason OF his birth and position, but,
added to this, he is an able man Of the
highest character, well known explorer
and scientist-one who has done things
and accomplished much-besides being an
efficient oEhcer Of high rank in the navy
Of his country"
It will not be very long, it is said,
before Mrs. Elkins and her daughter, who
are now at the Elkins home in West
Virginia. win Join the senator
The senator's announcement comes at
time when society had practically CON
cluded that a marriage between the dis
tinguished Italian noblemsn and the
beautiful Southern girl was assured. and
hot upon il comes a dispatch from Lon
don that the duke has just bought a
splendid seven.rope necklace of pearls
as wedding gift % Miss ElSins.
During the summer color was lent to
the reports OF an engagement by the re-
ceipt Of almost daily cable messages
from thed uks in Italy to Miss Ellsfns.
Mrs. Elkins herself was said to have
admitted that her daughter was enga sed,
and during the summer the young wo-
man turned her attention to the study
Of Italian Now the gosrips say that

Why Women Like to Have Small
Waist-line and High Heel Shoes.

Professor Thomas of Chicago univer-
sitv, whose article on THE Advent
tious Character of Woman" raised such
"a disturbance last month, contributes
an article equally interesting to the
November American Magazine 1t IL
entitled "The Psychology Of Woman's
Dress" Following is a brief extracts
"Any object habtually associated
with either sex takes on some of the
personality of that sex Not only The
long hair of women but even her hand
kerchief may have vivid interest for
the lover. TIE manpish woman is one
who drops some of the signs of ler sex.
The clothing of women, when ii was
developed to the point Of covering her
whole person, took on an interest Of its
own, but it had the disadvantage of OBJ
seuring the figure This difficulty mas
been met by fashioning the clothing on
lines which indicate and even emphasize
the outlines of the body.
"To be short on this point, which
does not require elaboration to per
son who uses his eyes, the dominant
idea in the historical fashions of wom-
ans dress is emphasis Of the waist line.
The most striking anatomical peculiar
ity of women is a waist which measures
small in comparison with the bust and
hips This point can be emphasized
further either by artifcially construct
ing the waist or by aiding on structure
at the hips or shoulders. Tne balloon
sleeves, the hustle, the papier, and the
hoop skirt are as effective in this as
the corset The tapering hand and the
foot and the taper toward the feet Sc
cured by the pinch-back skirt are equal
lv effective contrasts with the hips and
bust. The dress of the Eastern WON
an is designed to conceal the outline Of
the figure, that of the Western wom-
an to reveal and emphasize it.
Relatively small and weak hands
feet are another distinctive Fmark of
woman, and to render these more dainty
has been another persistent effort of
fashion. High heels, like long skirts
add to this apparent magnitude of
woman, and at the same time give her
= delicate and distinguished underpinning
If, then. a woman walks on her toes
and places the heels of the shoe under
her instep instead Of under her heel,
end if the skirt SO covers the foot that
the shoe heel seems directly under the
real heel, we get the spectacle of a very
small foot indeed The shortened
length attained by Chinese women
through doubling the toes back is Sc
cured by the Western woman by means
OF the high and illusorily placed heel"
