The latest color is called artlchoke.

The latest color is called artichoke.
Dainty pink parasols are embroid-
cred with flowers of lavender.
If you know what color artichoke
is, you know what color you are go
ing to wear, or ought to.
There are browns, all kinds of
browns, which is lucky for the few
people who got brown suits last year.
The leather shades are in particu-
lar demand, and reddish browns.
For house gowns, reseda green is
n.odish.
Wistaria is still possible, as are
certain shades of dull and darkish
green.
Muslin evening frocks are touched
with metallic trimming.
A new correspondence paper has
white or colored hemstitched borders,
like handkerchief hens, and the pa
per is cross-barred like linen.
Long sashes are being worn with
coat suits.
Some dainty new silk stockings have
lace insteps.
The fancy fordrapery around skirts
Is growing every day.
The pale green tints are worn with
various shades Of green.
'Filets and jewelled hair bands have
apparently come to stay.
The newest dancing frocks for girls
are being made Of pufed malines over
satin slips.
There has been a notable increase
in the use OF printed materials with
the advance of the new foulard rage.
The military coat will be prominent
in tailored suitings this fall. 1t will
be slightly bloused and belted.
Old blue linen. with tucks and frills
CT white null. is very attractive in
any OF the present-day models.
Trimmings Just now are put on
quite as much in the perpendicular
treatment as in the round and round
effects.
One OF the fayorites for the season
is the big Gainsboroagh hat OF white
pique, trimmed with a huge bow of
black velvet ribbon.
Sontache braid is as popular as
ever and rat tail Is q close second.
The former is little more practical,
tie later perhaps triae more chic.

HOD CARRIER ACCUSED OF
TRYING TO POISON SPOUSE
San Franciscan Charged Also with
Frightening Wife to Cause
Heart Failure

SAN FRANCISCO, May 19.-F'ran-
els Love. a hod carrier, was arrested
today on a charge of attempting to
poison his wife, who owns home on
Army street and has $4,000 in the
bank.
The couple met for the first time
last August in the parlor of a matri-
monial agency on Geary street Love
having advertised for a wife with
money.
Mrs. Victoria Loring, who responded
to the advertisement and whom Love
married, gave him an inventory of her
property. According to her complaint,
Love insisted on her giving him deed
to her property and when she refused
began to annoy her in various ways.
She suffered from heart disease and
he would brighten her, she alleges, with
the purpose of bringing on an attack.
A few days ago he gave her powder
to relieve a headache. She concealed
IT and turned 1t over to the police.
An analysis showed that 1t contained
enough strychnine to kill a dozen men
and Loves arrest followed.

BANKER SCHIFF AND ISRAEL
ZANGWlLL PREPARE PLAN
Consideration Given to Invitation ls-

New Turkish Chamber
of Deputies

NEW YORK, May 19.-Jacob Fl.
Schiff, banker and Israel Zangwill'
author and head of the Jewish terri
torialist organization, have come to-
gether in an effort to colonize in Meso-

colonization plans in Palestine, accord
ing to news received by Jacob Fish
man, editor of the Jewish Daily News
of this city.
The invitation of Ahmed Ria Bey.
president of the Turkish chamber OF

sideration.
The lea society," the largest and rich
est Jewish colonization organization IN
the world to which $45,00O,O0 was LETT
in trust by the late Baron de Hlrsch,

to investigate conditions. The prelim-
mary reports showed that the land is
most fertile and irrigation is all that
is needed to make it productive. The
Zionists readily accepted the scheme,
for Mesopotamia Is not far from Pales-
tine.
