BUILDING NEW ENGINES

Having about completed the order for
freight. passenger and switching en-
gines placed with the Juniata shops at
Altoona last Spring, the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company Is about TO place
another order for motive power. Esti-
mates are now being prepared by the
company's experts and Il IL expected
that authority to begin work will be
given some time during the coming
month.
With the engines now being built at
Altoona the company viii have about
a more locomotives than IL had at this
time last year. Il is Intended 20 build
as many Of these engines as possible
at the company's shops so the large
army Of shopmen will have steady en-
ployment for the remainder OF the
year. BY that time IL Is expected
that repair work will have increased
TO such an extent as 20 keep all tho
shops in fun operation.
Rumors that the locomotive building
concerns. which heretofore built most
OF the Pennsylvanla's motive power.
are complaining against the action OF
the company I'm building such large
number Of the engines az it's shops are
not taken seriously by local railroad
men.

Rrsezss Ernn, Eanland-

The present fashionable fans are
very small.
They are painted in Vatican designs
and have sandalwood or pearl sticks.
Big ostrich feather fans are seen
again, after a long period of obscur-
ity.
The small ones have been revived
also reminding one forcibly Of the
drawing room cabinets they were wont
to adorn.
These are made i'm fretted ivory.
This is an impractical idea Of old
Dame Fashions. but she is usually
conflicting in her notions when it
comes to usefulness and beauty.
One of the most equisite features OF
the fans of any period is to have them
scented.
Sandalwood is one of the most deli
cate OF all sachets.
Little squares of this may be pur-
chased at the chemists and put in the
fan or glove box.
Or else a bag of good sachet powder
may be used.
The fans Of spangled gauze are out
In full force on all the counters.
Special chains arc attached TO them
and match the designs Of the fan IN
color.

Fashions in Hats.

The latest from abroad is the rama
hat, trimmed with material of the
same fibre.
Big sheaves of flowers are one of
the recent trimmings.
Some Of the hats Of moderate size
are turned up in front or side front
and trimmed with a black or white
lace bow.
These are admirable for wearing with
a tailored costume
A new idea is TO twist a ribbon IN
with the hair and tie it at the side
where the brim is lifted TO fill the
space.
Beautiful Gainsborough hats are
coming from London.
The turned-up effect Of the hats is
most welcome. after the long reign Of
the cloche models.
smart hat seen a short time ago
was Of rose Shantug. lined with a deep
ruby shade OF satin. II was turned
up on one side and caught with one
Of the new shade red silk roses.

To Wash Summer Gloves.

All summer gloves wash perfectly IL
carefully done.
To cleanse chamois they should he
soaked in bath Of warm soapy wat
er. adding a little borax, then squeez-
ed through the fingers until all the
soil is removed, when they should be
rinsed in slightly soapy water.
The soap prevents the leather from
becoming stiff and board like: at the
same time a gentle rubbing between
the hands during the drying process
will help to soften the gloves.
It IS a good plan to use glove
stretchers a few minutes as the gloves
dry, for this win help TO shape the
iiBgers and also prevents strain when
putting on the gloves after washing.
If one is willing to take the trouble
TO peel the gloves from the hands very
carefully, so their shape lis retained,
they may be washed just as one would
wash bare hands.
The gloves. however, must come or
inside out. There must be no strain-
ing or pulling at the fingers
White or yellow colored silk OF cot
ton gloves may be washed in luke
warm soapy water afterward rinsing
in clear warm water.

The Poke Bonnet.

II was promised us. and it is here.

led TO expect, however.
It chief use is for wear in the au-
tomobile.
The models for this purpose are quite
as quaint and charming as were those
designed for our grandmothers in
stage-coach days.
In fact some of them have trimmings
Of dull, faded colors. which look as
If they had come out of the attic
trunks.
Many actually have the old coal

Sieve Ideas.


In the first place the sleeve need not
be long.
A three-qusrter length or elbow
sleeve is quite correct, IL it is of this
years style.
The close tucked sleeve and the
plain, long sleeve are still worn, hut
notifications and variations Of this
severity are being introduced in tile
newer costumes.
One new sleeve has a close-ntting
upper and lower arm. with fullness in
troduced Just at the elbow.
This fulness is made usually by
few horizontal pleats laid along the
inside seam.
An upper sleeve, not fun. but easily
fitted, is often joined below the elbow
to a long, close lower sleeve or cuff.
An undersleeve Of sheer material is
tucked closely all around and left to
fall in frill down the outer seam.
Where sleeves are trimmed with en-
broidery. inset lace, buttons and the
like. the trimming often extends on
up the shoulder TO the collar.
Evening frock sleeves are not subject
to strict rule. They may be either
short and close-htting, or softly. fluffy
lily full.

In rebuttal to his wife's testimony

Death of ]. H. Tucker.

Word was received Tuesday
announcing the death of j. II.
Tucker of Lake City. He died in
Independence from heart disease.
Death was very sudden and came
while he was eating breakfast.
Mr.. Tucker was born in Tenn
essee and was 70 years old. When
a boy he came to this county with
his parents and most of his life
was spent near Lexington. In the
Civil war he responded to the call
of the Confederacy and did val
liant service as a soldier lie was
married shortly after the war and
his wife died some sixteen years
ago. He leaves no children. His
only near relatives are a brother,
DR.. J. f. Tucker of this city, and
a sister, Mrs. Margaret Powell of
Lake City, with whom during
the last few years he has made
his home,
Mr.. Tucker had many friends
this county and was recognized as
one of the most valuable citizens.
He was a devout Methodist from
early childhood and always took
an active interest in church af-
fairs.
The funeral was held Wedne
day in Lake City. DIR. and NJ 5.
Tucker and w. II. Greer went TO
Lake City Tuesday evening.

MANY SAW THE GAME
Missouri-Kansas Contest Drew
Well from Lexington.

Did we go7 Well, it would take
a pretty severe case of pneumonia
to keep any real, live gent from
Lexington away from the big con-
test when he had good hunch
that Missouri was about to put a
nice one over.
The failure of the athletic man
agement of the academy to get on.
the track of anybody with the
nerve to stand up against the at
tack of the cadets, left nothing
but the Missouri-Kansas game to
attract the attention of the bugs
from this burg, So more than a
hundred of them hied themselves
to Kansas City. A large part of
the remaining portion of the pop
ulation awaited the returns with
eagerness.
Both the west bound trains
Wednesday evening and the one
Thursday morning were crowded
in spite of the putting on of ex-
ira coaches.
AS for the game, it was Missou-
ri's all the way. The final score of
IL to 6 is a good indication of the
comparative merits of the two ag-
gregations. Some Lexingtonians, j
is rumored, lost a little money;
but for the most part they were
glad to lose it. A good many from
this city won. Yes, it would be
possible to mention names, but un
necessary.
A large portion of the enthus-
lasts returned Thursday night;
some returned Friday mornings;
some are still celebrating.
Was it worth the money Oh,
