MlxUP OF VEHICLES
AT A BUSY CORNER

Last night there came near being a
serious collision when a carriage horse
became frightened while trying to pass
between heavy truck and the eurbing
lat New Brunswick avenue and Smith
street. A trolley car was occupying the
center of the street and the truck and
carriage attempted to pass between the
car and the curb. As result the horse
attached to the carriage became frighten-
ed and ran into thecurb, throwing over
the big mail box.
The merchants complain of the fact
that trolley car craws try to gain time
by laying at the main corner, instead of
on the switches. For the sake of a
minute or two, a ear will remain at the
corner instead of staying on the nearest
switch and as a result traffic is i'm
peded to certain extent at he principal
corner.

HER LOST COAT.

Tho Sequel to . Ladies' Afternoon
Card Party.
A number Of women were putting OF,
their wraps preparatory to going home
from an afternoon card party 10 the
upper residence district Of New York
one afternoon last winter when a val
liable fur coat belonging to one Of
them could not be found. There was.
however. another fur coat Of inferior
quality in the dressing room. which
the hostess said had evidently been
left by mistake by the woman who had
taken the other garment. The avail
able coat was taken away by the NO.
man whose wrap was missing IN the
hope that the mistake would be recti-
fed without much trouble.
Several days passed. and no claim
was made for the coat the guest had
worn away from the house. and the
woman took it to a dealer. where her
garment had been purchased. hoping
that some mark on the substituted
coat might be found BY which the
owner could be identified. The plan
was successful. and. much to her
inferior coat was the property Of her
card hostess.
The lost coat was found, and on
its return the matter was to be hushed
up. but the promise Of silence was evil
IDENTITY poorly kept. No more invita-
lions for afternoon card parties have
been issued from the house where the

One of the changes to be noted in
the new spring coats concerns the
Innings. These are often of plain or
fancy Shantung or foularG.
For motoring the white ccat is u.s.
ually spring feature. Some that
have appeared this year show collar
and cuff facings OF natter blue cloth,
with jet buttons or pipings and but
tons of black satin.
Blue serge is always in demand for
motor use and some recent models
are particularly attractive. One had
lining Of Shantung in rose du Barri,
spotted with white. The fronts, rolled
back to show the lining, were edged
with rather a thick navy silk cord.
Another navy serge coat had lining
of foulard to match, spotted with
white. A picturesque model with the
very large arnhole. had strapping
surrounding the armhcle. and the
reveres and rolled-back cuffs We're of
tan colored cloth, silk Of the same
shade being used as a lining.
There is new crepe de chine mo-
toring hood which is simple yet effect
i've and becoming.
