ANOTHER TOBACCO MAN CALLED.
Perry C. Wilder, Prominent Evansville
Citizen, Succumbs to Disease.


Citizen, Succumbs to Disease.
Perry G.. Wilder, prominent in state
republican circles, Evansville's best
known citizen and man held in the
highest regard throughout the county
and state, died az o'clock Friday
morning from the effects of an abscess
which had developed in his lungs. He
had been in i'll health for some time,
but few of his friends knew that his
condition was in any way critical.
Mr.. Wilder was merchant of Ey-
ansvile. He was born in Ohio, Nov. Z,
1852. and came to Wisconsin with his
father, the Rev. H. G. Wilder, in 1862,
and had been resident of Evansville
since 1868. He attended the Evansville
seminary, and taught school when he
was Is years old. Successfully he was
in the banking and tobacco business.
He was interested in the Barnard &
Wilder firm, which has warehouses in
Oregon, Madison and Evansville.
For many years he had taken an ac-
tive interest in municipal, county and
state politics, serving as the president
of the village board and the first mayor
of Evansville, as clerk of the town of
Union and member of the county board
and being vice-chairman of the repub-
|lican state central committee at the
time of his death. He held the post
office under President Harrison from
1890 to 1893, resigning on account of
pressing business interests. Though
active in politics, he made no enemies,
and it is said that he was one of the
few advisers of Robert M. La Toilette,
as governor, whose counsels were ever
needed.
He belonged to the Masonic, Odd
Fellows, Knights of Pythias and
Knights of the Globe fraternal orders
and was member of GAINESVILLE Com

and only an adept or the person who
paid the bills could tell the difference
between them.
Our first illustration shows an ad-
mirable design in the latest mode for
our warm season. II is a gown that
may be made up in a wide variety of
materials, from cloth to chiffon, or
linen to null. A gorgeous dinner
gown could be created by making the
guimpe and stock; the full drawn
pun across the front between the en-
pire band and sash, and the sleeves

edge OF overskirt and bottom of skirt
would be embroidered or braided in
silver. In the next instance the black
gown would be embroidered in gold.
To make an afternoon gown OF this
model use soft silk or satin. and work
an elaborate pattern of hand-em-
broidery or soutache braid over the
broad part of the bodice, which is
formed somewhat on the bolero order
In regard to brevity. and which serves
TO support the skirt by means Of two
broad, embroidered straps which are
buttoned TO the top of the sash. OF
course, the strap is usually sewed
firmly 10 the sash, but II is quite pos
sible to fasten IL on the button and
with concealed hook and eye in each
corner. This would permit one to
wear a sheer blouse on a warm day
without the embroidered covering.
The overskirt is looped in upward
folds on each side, and is embroid-
cred to harmoJize with the design
used upon the bodice. This begins
in tiny scallop high up the front of
the overskirt. and increases I'm the
size of scallops towards the bottom.
Buttons OF button effects are set in
each scallOp. Usually these are of
raised embroidery, beginning with a
mere dot and growing to quite a large
disc lower down on the overskIrt.
Upon the skirt is repeated another
harmonizing embroidery or braid de-
sign that extends around the bottom
ON and above the hem and struggles
up charmingly into an irregular noint
upon the front of the skirt.
The bottom of the skirt lies on tho
floor in full, noppy folds all around
