SOMETHING ABOUT HATS.

With but SINCE month of spring
remaining and summer, or at least the
warm days that make us think OF sum-
mer and outings, soon to come, there
has been a gradual discarding on the
part of many men in town of the
derby hat For the past few weeks
soft felts have been noticed in some
profusion, although perhaps not quite
so many as usual and there will be
several weeks still of these comfort
able head coverings before we all be-
come too hopelessly conspicuous in
wearing them and take to straw hats
in self defense.
1t is a curious fact that the ma
jority of the soft hats that are to be
found in the best shops seem to bear
the imprint of foreign makers and
the question comes up "Why is it that
the smartest shapes and the most al
Turing felts seem to be imported
rather than domestic products? Can
it be that we do not make hats equally
as we'll in this country" Certainly
we do but for some unknown reason
we seem to have devoted most of our
energies over here to the manufacture
of staple goods, conventional shapes,
fashioned after perfectly conservative
models, and while the derbies and

: The Professors Strategy

There were two mansions, two great
Yards full of evergreen trees, and
here begins the story.
For one mansion was the property Of
Miss Jane Storey not young but good
to look upon. The other had for its
occupant Professor Delaney, who was
known in the neighborhood as a bug
crank" which means that he was
heart and soul an ardent entomolo-
gist.
And the things he detested most
in this world were the evergreens in
Miss Storey's yard. They were clipped
in the shapes of animals and birds,
and TO the professor spelled night

He didn't know Miss Storey, but
decided to call and beg her TO let the
trees grow as nature had intended and
preserve his vanity.
HE was met by pleasant woman,
sweet and refined, who made him cor
daily welcome.

FASHION NOTES
But For the Men This Time

Rumchundas, poplins, English twiIls
and the countless Persian effects are
to be the vogue in the summer scarfs,
the softer materials being made up in
to scarfs with free flowing ends. The
majority of the scarfs for the current
season, however, are long and slen-
der graduated four-in-hands without
shoulders, suitable for wear with the
popular collars of the moment. A
new Rumchunda scarf has the flowing
ends in familiar dark colors but show
ing, at the point at which the scarf
knots, an extraordinary sombre effect,
thus combining two of the fashion
able features of the season in one
scarf. Because just at the present the
shops are filled with sombre scarfs and
these, as well as the Rumchundas, are
being featured as never before.
What is known as the tiled and
dyed scarf is one of the features OF
the current season. 1t has the strik-
ing ombre "splotch" at the point
where the scarf knots in the opening
of the collar. This brilliant rainbow
effect, many toned and showing deep
lurid shades as well as the palest, dain-
by revival of the old process called
tying and dyeing' which for some
time past has fallen into almost total
disuse. The scarfs, at the point at
which it is planned to show the
''splotch" are rolled up into little
ball, onelayer of silk being folded back
over it, the entire lump" of silk be-
ing tied tightly with piece of Irvine
thus presenting the appearance of the
for example, used to tie up their small
coins. This little lump of silk is
dipped once into the dye, quickly
opened out and dried. The edges are
of course, deeply colored, but the cen
ter of the ball" is quite white, as the
dye fails to penetrate so far. But
just as the dye enters the lump of ia
brio, even so the shading and nothing
extraordinarily beautiful effects are

and it is these that are being shown
in the scarfs of the mometnt.
Wash scarfs, patterned, with
stripes and panels, and in all colors,
so that it is almost impossible to tell
them from silk, will make bid for
popular favor this season.
The newest wash scarf has the in
itial of the wearer embroidered on it
in pattern similar to that on the
initial handkerchief which are sold
to be carried when the scarf is worn.
The striped madras shirts of the
moment are being sold with two fold
collars in popular shapes, but OF the
same material as the shirt accompany
ing them. Smart men are now wear
ing colored collars in the morning
and these striped affairs will be even
more popular in the fall.

Wolgast Very Confident.

NEW YORK, August 2S-Ad Wolgast,
Battling Nelson's conqueror in a battle
of short duration held recently at Cof-
froth's Colma arena, is training hard for
his bout with Tommy Murphy, the local
lightweight, scheduled for Pittsburg Sep
tember 1. Wolgast, incidentally. believes
he has good chance to land the light
weight title, and that the fight with
Murphy will be one of the four rounds
that must be attained on the champion
ship ladder. In speaking recently about
his acquiring the title, Wolgast is quoted
as having said:
whipping Murphy will he task No. I.
Then l am to meet Joe Galligan, or some
other good man. at my old home at Cadil-
lac, Mich. Whipping him will be task
No. 2. A club at Kalamazoo IS talking
Of matching me with Packey Mcfarland,
so task No. 3 will have to do with the
trouncing of the Chicagoan That leaves
but one task. the whipping of Battling
Nelson, task No. 4, the easiest task OF
ALL"
The stocky Teuton IS certainly most
confident of his ability to gain title hon
ors. 1t is rather an interesting plan of
campaign that he has mapped out for
himself. If he gets away with Murphy
in a six-round bout the sharps will do
well to look him over carefully, for Tom
my has come to be rated as one Of the
kings of the six-round game. Wolgast' s
'cock-sure' attitude toward Mcfarland
Is almost as amusing as his optimism
relative to a championship fight with
Nelson.
