half of the game. The struggle was more
terrific than ever. BY a succession OF
punts, drop kicks, rushes and end runs,
most of which he negotiated entirely with
out assistance. Aubrey Westervelt the
demon quarterback, succeeded in getting
the bali within few feet of the coveted
goal one effort more and all would be
over. AS the demon quarterback stood,
shouting the signals for the last and de-
Gliding play, Hugh Sneerwell, creeping un-
observed along the side lines, shot a missile
from his pea-shooter. Straight at the head
OF Aubrey Westervelt 1t sped, but the
great quarterback just then turned his head
slightly, and the pea striking his nose
guard. rebounded from the rubber and
stretched Hugh Sneerwel senseless on the
ground,
When the treacherous consprator came
to his senses the game had been won, and
Aubrey Westervelt was being carried in
triumph on the shoulders Of his victorious
team mates.

After first mourning the dressed kid

Father Gets His Due

with the arrest of Benjamin J. Miller on
a charge of nonsupport, preferred by his
wife, Elizabeth Miller OF 800 Monroe street
Philadelphia, strange story was revealed
Of a daughter allowing her father TO make
love to her in another city so that she
might entice him to Philadelphia that her
deserted mother might prosecute him.
Eleven years ago Miller deserted his
family, his wife says. For years nothing
was heard of him. Then, through a
sster-in-law, who was living in New York
City the deserted wife learned OF his where
abouts.
A plan was entered upon by Mrs. Miller,
her daughter. Bertha IS years old and
the sister-m-law in New York. II was ar
ranged that Bertha should go to New
York and the sister-in-law was TO have
Miller come to her home to attend
party.
The plot OF the plan was that her nus
band should fail IN love with his own
daughter, whom he had not seen since she
was a child anG whom II was believed he
would not know Bertha went 10 New
York, and on the night appointed Miller,
came 20 the house.
AS II had been expected, he did not recog-
nize in the fascinating young woman his
own daughter. The plot succeeded so well.
It was said by Mrs, Miller, that the in
fntuated man was willing and eager TO &C
company Bertha to Philadelphia
Packing up his trunk. Miller went TO
Philadelphia with his daughter. never sus-
pecting the true state Of affairs. on their
arrival in Philadelphia Bertha took her
father to the house on McEg6s street, where
he was arrested and TAKEN 1efore Magis-

Correct Winter Mourning for Women

Materials suitable for winter mourning
this year are somewhat limited though OF
course black broadcioth and crepe cloth
are comfortable in weight and conform tn
the demands OF etiquet
For instance. the walking suit could be
Of a dun finished lightweight broadclotu
or a serge, according to the needs OF The
w,arer.
Fo. ali around wear there is nothing
better ,han a good serge or a mic qua t
CT Panama
Ttis however, is not the first mourning
fer Wow. she .-yuld wear crepe cloth
trimmed or not WITH crepe. Some widows
dispense with crepe on the gown and use
it only on the bonnet. hat or veil other
widows furnish the neck with a turndown
collar Of ciepe instead Of the little white
TO the sleeves
4 deep fold of crepe on the hem of the
skirt is worn by many widows.
The rules in regard to mourning are not
as strict as they were a few years ago, for
now Individual preferences may be INDUCED
in without exciting any comment.
For first mourning the walking suit
shouId be without trimming Tailored
The collar of the coat may be faced with
dull mourning silk. such armure or
dull peau de sole. II preferred. Black but
tons Cplain) are used for closing when the
coat is not finished with a fly.
Materials suitable for best afternoon
wear are cashmere dull finish), henrietta
and wool wolfe.
Only simple designs are chosen for the
development Of such frocks and trimming
is used sparingly
Folds of the goods are always in good
taste. and so are dull silks showing a plain
or a creepy surface
Corded silks. such as bengaline, are not
mourning.
A small yoke Of plain or tucked Brus-
sells net Is admissible. but lace, needless to
say is In bad form. Rows Of dull, narrow
ribbon may be used. But ribbons must not
be shirred.
Fabrics suitable for simple house dresses
