sWINDLER PUTS
UP A. BIG BLUFF
Maybray May be Tried Under the
Iowa State Law Instead of
U. S. Courts.

DIES MONIES, Iowa, April 15--
There is some doubt as to whether J..
c. Maybray one of the alleged race
swindlers, will be tried in the United
States court, insomuch as he has been
indicted in the state court at Council
Bluffs. There is a disposition on the
part of the federal officials to have
the prisoner convicted, if possible, I'M
der the state law, as the penalty pre-
scribed is much more severe. May
bray in an interview stated he would
not furnish bonds even if they were
placed at a dollar.
Commenting upon the indictment
he said: 1T is simply case of perse-
cution and efforts of postoffice in
spector to gain fame
With regard to letters seized he
stated: There was not a thing in one
of them that can be used as evidence
against me and | defy the postoffice
inspectors, or any one else, to pro-
duce an discriminating letter.
Judge Mcpherson, before whom the
case may be heard in the United
States court is at present at Keokuk,
and will not be able to make any dis.
position of the matter until some time
in May.

ADJUSTMENTS
The Newness Of the New.

Inc NeWheSS OF the new.
Novelty is the spice that seasons
stage skits assuming to burleque Or
satirize current events. The min
strels depend greatly upon local and
national happenings for their comedy.
Prior to the presidential election,
Opening the Campaign" was the prin-
cipal comedy offering of the Al. G.
Field Greater Minstrels, a skit satir-
ling all the political parties and can
didates. The result of the election
was the end of the offering.
For three weeks prior to election
day an act entitled Teddy in Africa"
was reheaTsed. The plot of the piece
shows VIII am Jennings and Kurns in
Africa with Teddy, indulging in argu-
ments as to politics and things GEN
eral. OF course the whole success of
the act depended upon the election Of
Taft Every performer in the act was
a democrat and pulling for Bryan.
They naturally entered into the work
with bad grace and many wagers were
made the act would never be present
ed. So sure were they of Bryan's cleo
ton they bantered and badgered
Field. However he kept up the re-
hearsals and never accepted wager
or disputed an argument. Finally one
or two. more persistent, approached
/ Field at a tiresome rehearsal and
sarcastically remarked, ''If Bryan is
elected you will probably close this
act" Field quietly replied, NO,
will close the show"
Teddy in Africa Hunting Bigger
| Game" is funny satire and p.eases
all. There is E line of political bad
image, a caricature of character that
Is infectiously funny, with picturesque
scenic surroundings, Africans in cos
tune and without costumes, stirring

prominent political celebrities OF the
day grouped at the ending.

Tolson Stock Company Coming.

lady with the Tolson Stock Company
combines all the qualities requisite Il
success IN her profession-youth
versatility which have enabled her t
attain a remarkable degree of popu
larity in the cities where she has ap
peared. Mr.. J. H. Harris, who vii

of trimming; on the contrary, the less the
better, for then the beauty of line of the
gown itself is not disturbed or married.
The great variety in color in the new trim
mings is of service in keeping the I'M
broken lines, for if the trimming match
exactly the material it is simply render
ing of the same color scheme with only
little contrast in shade. If so desired the
same coloring can be found with merely
the tightening or darkening in the pat
tern. A curious instance of this is to be
seen in the all white gown that is trimmed
with bands of narrow side tucks-here is
the same material, but the tucks make it
appear to be in sharp contrast.

quently are never generally popular, the
average woman preferring something that
shows the money expended. There are
wonderfully effective trimmings to be found
this spring among the inexpensive ones,
and the expenditure of time and thought
will gain better results than too lavish
outlay of money. The gowns are SO
planned that it is much easier to choose
suitable trimmings than when all details
were so involved that trimmings had to be
chosen somewhat recklessy. Now color,
design and material can each and all be
ccnsulted-must be, in fact-but the CLINT
of color obtained in an exquisite piece of
embroidery or passementerie will trans
form failure into a success. AS has been
said, it is not essential to use quantities

number of different white materials to
chose from. The silk wolfe is fascinating
in its new weaves, while nets of all kinds
and descriptions, plain and figured, are
most attractive. There are also the white
pongee with rajah. tussor and the num-
berless novelty goods that each season
are exhibited, while in the chiffon and
gauzes many old favorites have returned
to be welcomed with enthusiasm. En-
broidery and lace are popular trimmings
and both heavy and fine laces are used
in the sheer materials. Soutache braiding
on net cannot well be called a new fash
ion. but it is to be counted among the
styles of the year, and soutache braiding
on the net and wolfe unlined coats is de-
cidedly novel idea. In white this fash
ion is extremely popular and is almost in
variaby becoming.
The newest summer fashions may be
termed more normal. They are distinc-
tive, individual and very smart, but the
note of eccentricity is lacking. Then the

ton often asked. 1t is one of the most
expensive trimmings that can be used. 1t
is heavy and it is easily defaced, but it
is certainly very beautiful and graceful
in effect and can be dyed to match any
and every shade. 1t is not easily dealt
with, for it is not so easily sewed on as
might be imagined. Still, some of the most
costly gowns are trimmed with it, and it
is also used on the medium priced. 1t
must be included in every fashion report
of summer trimming, but is better
choice for the woman who does not have
to consult economy and count the number
of gowns in her summers wardrobe.

too much embroidery but the best OF It's
kind is the rule with the fastidious wom-
an who delights in the luxuries OF dress.
The draped or plain tunic of plain net OF
tulle that has an elaborate design but not
one that will cover the entire tunic is
thought far the smartest effect. The
large patterns in the heavy embroideries
are the most popular and effective
and are more in demand than the liner
this for the embroidery on net, tulle,
chiffon or any of the transparent mate
rails that are used for reception and
evening gowns.
The rule does not apply to the simple
gowns or rather to those to be worn for
less formal occasions, for there the finest
of fine work is demanded, so fine as often
to be disappointingly ineffective. Rows
upon rows of the finest pin tucks, hand run,
with entredeux of real lace, mean charm
ing daintiness but do not show half the
labor spent nor the consequent expense.
Fine embroidery in the material and hand
knotted fringes do not, to the uninitiated,
display half their real value, and conse- !

even when made of the most costly en-
broidery But it is not for one moment
to be supposed that there are very radical
changes of figure or design, and the dress
maker has to study the lines of each in

trouble to turn out satisfactory gowns.
1t is only softening of the too harsh
outlines and the too marked eccentrici-
ties
Such subtle distinctions as now exist

SUGGESTION of Bolero Jacket.

II HERE is a suggestion Of the bolero
jacket combined with a suggestion OF
the draped bodice which makes Illus
tration No we'll worth studying. The
combination of different styles used in
the costume seems almost incredible,
and yet a harmonious whole has been
achieved 1t is by means of the broad
pointed belt that it has been possible to
produce the effect of both the bolero and
the draped waist, and also because Of
the peculiar garniture of the front.

Rather heavy lace is used for the gar

The design used for the material of

rows of four tucks lengthwise in such a
manner as to form regular blocks. The
