Gowns Made of Scarfs.

Since the coming in of the tunic
fashion it is surprising how many
gowns are made of shawls. Those of
white Chinese crepe, embroidered or
plain, are tho ones used. The long
fringe is left intact.
It is not much trouble to make these
gowns because so much of the drapery
is now in the shawl fashion. The top
part Is run on a bias line after the
Greek method, with large buckle or
ieweled ornament st the right shoulder,
and the fringe is left as an edge.
The tunic has fringe on it also. and
under this is long simple skirt Of
white crepe de chine, without trim.

piciOn.
The head of the secret service de-
partment saw that he was facing e
very grave responsibility. He sent
messages calling together the most
important men in the government,
and within an hour the findings were
laid before them. They found them
selves in a singularly embarrassing
predicament. To take any action which
might offend tho representative of a
nation which was already engaged In
triumphant war, and OF which the
whole world stood In terror and appre-
hension, was something to be avoided.
Even to suggest to the ambassador of
the United States that he was sus-
pected of having abducted the kaiser,
an act of lese majesty in itself, was
something which might arouse that
man to appeal to his home government
and topple Germany itself into an i'm
broglio which could end only in de-
feat. The attitude of America, up to
the moment when communication
ceased, had been friendly. Therefore,
there seemed no logical reason for
her taking any such unheard Of action
as that of interference with the per-
son OF his majesty. The consensus Of
opinion was that the situation was too
delicate to admit Of any ordinary
methods, and that there was only one

The neatest laundry bags to hang on

Accordingly The Tulletin Yesterday

Mr.. Pelly has been out of the city
for some days but returned last even

He expressed himself as ayerse TO
having any memorial erected TO her
here, because he felt that any monu-
ment here would be more in the ma

keeping these events constantly be-

AT a meeting OF the Board of Local

asked to come and make a critical
examination Of the sewer and report
to the Board as to the character OF
work done by the lich Construction

much in detail; and ii stated that
there were some very serious defect
lin the sewer which in the nature OF
things must prove very dangerous to
the city in the future.
Mr. Phillips found a number Of
"spongy places, spots that rs.

cement properly smoothed inside.
But a more serious defect in the
construction is that at various places

properly made and openings are left
through which water may enter the
