ed. The bill by Messrs Hollis and
Wilson seems to be designed to correct
defects in the Saye law, in the event
there can be no reconciliation Of the
house and senate ideas as to the pro-
posed substitutes. If there can be no
agreement between the senate and
house delegations as to the proposed
substitutes for the Saye law, 1t would
seem that the best thing under the cir
cumstances would be to adopt the
amendments proposed by Messrs. Hol-
lis and Wilson. But as to how the
delegation will view the matter, re-
mains to be seen.

SENATOR Tillman has succeeded In
whipping the senate out on the question
of confirming the nomination of w. D.
Crum, the negro doctor, as collector Of
the port for Charleston. Senator Frye,
who has charge of the nomination, de-
cided a few days ago that he would
push the nomination no further and so
announced. It is generally believed
that this is the end Of the Crum ques-
ton, and that Mr.. Taft will not re-
nominate him.

TRIMMING FOR BEAVER HATS,
10 Really Simple, But by No Means
Easy Of Construction.

The medium.sized mushroom beaver
hat has become even more fashionable
than it was last winter. Its brim does
not catch the wind. and it protects the
hair 1t can be comfortably worn when
larger hats are a nuisance.
The new trimming for these is sim
pie. and yet not easy to do. 1t con-
sists OF two DEVILS feathers floating
across the left front and wide bow
placed at their beginning. 1t Is the
bow that is the trouble to make. 1t
is exactly the shape Of the fiat silk one
worn on a mans patent leather pump.
Chinese blue. coral pink and jade
green are used for 1t. The material
is an Ottoman ribbon about five inches
wide The loops and ends are Of equal
width and length. One is laid fiat
over the other The loop in the CEN
ter is equally fiat and detached.
This bow is laid across the brim of
the hat. 1t does not go up against the
crown. The method was copied from
the smart hats for little girls OF ten
years old. and it has proved popular
among young women and matrons.

DELICATE SHADES IN FAVOR.
Particularly In Evening Wraps Are
They Much Used.

The delicate shades In soft pink,
blue and creamy white are greatly
admired and are handsomely trimmed
with plumes. feathers and downy
narabout in the same color.
All these lovely supple materials
shown in these delicious colorings are
also used for evening wraps. which
were never more charming. The shops
are full OF these fascinating garments
fashioned as dolman. liberty capes
and wraps like the monks garments
Of the middle ages. These range from
SIS to $50. according to the style OF
the cape and the trimming.
4 striking model is OF yellow liberty
satin shaped with side seams caught
up In the back into a hood. The cape
Is edged with a wide band Of yellow
and cream embroidery. Another at
tractive model Is OF strawberry satin
with the seams piped with black satin
cording. The long dolmans and the
monks garments are usually made In
black trimmed with fancy braid Of
silver trimming.
Made especially for these wraps are
the satin hoods: they are usually Of
the same satin and in the same color
rs the cape. One pretty model has u
rather small head section. but is en-
larged by wide trimming OF lace and
tied under the chin with large bow
of satin These hoods are sold at
five dollars and up.-Chicago Tribune.

Claims Rate Unjust.

He claimed that the present rate
2k cents fare with "a and : cents
mileage had proven unjust to the rail-
roads: that money was being lost oy
1t. and that the rate was confiscatory
and unjust.
Governor Kitchin said hat no evi,
ience had been presented 10 convince
him that the rate was confiscatory or
unjust. that the Legislature a, the
special session OF 1907 called to con-
slider the rate question had fixed II.
and had declined to give any power
to the Corporation Commission to
make a change. the law passed being
accepted by the railroads.
For these reasons he declined the
request that he ask the legislature
TO lake up the matter and refer il TO
the State Corporation Commission.
AMI said he would make no recon-
mendations in the matter to the legis-
lature.
