terials. Among these are beavers,
brush hats and Scratch-ups.
Certain novelties will be introduced
during the season in wool fabrics
one especially attractive material
showing a combination of wool and
fur felt.
The coming season will be one in
which a taste for novelty may be
gratihed, although it is quite true that
nothing fashy will be admitted.
Some latitude in shape and color pro-
duced by the adjustment of brims or
the use of hat bands will be admitted
to the man of college age, but even
here extremes are tabooed.
In order to be correct it will be nee
essary to avoid all fancy colors. Va
rious shades of gray, including pearl
and Slate, are best. Beaver shades and
light browns and fawns, with mixed
grays and mixed browns and black,
are all fashionable and all correct.
For an added novelty mixed bands of
a quiet nature are used

for boys up to the age of eight years.
More and more the good sense OF
providing the little fellows with cloth
ing which will stand frequent Tubing
is becoming recognized and these
garments have the advantage of look
ing spick and span with every cleans
ing.
A long, heavy overcoat which but
tons clear to the throat is, of course,
necessary during severe weather, to
be worn with the wash suit. This
overcoat is provided in the auto coat
referred to above.
Another overcoat which has met
with great favor because of its man
nish style is the double breasted box
back coat with two side and one top
pocket provided with flaps. 1t has
long wide lapels, a velvet collar and
double row of three large buttons.

made on the exact lines of mans

FASHIONS IN OVERCOATS

A single breasted fly front overcoat
that is correct in style and ideal for
general wear shows the collar and
lapels of similar cut to what has been
the vogue during the past season. 1t
has the front fly and three buttons.
Seams are plain and the edges hand
stitched The shoulders effect the
medium square style and the length
is about 43 inches. Flap pockets and
average width sleeves are shown. A
velvet collar is sometimes noticed on
on this model
For the gentleman who prefers a
double-breasted coat, there is a sack
overcoat which is particularly smart
in appearance and clean-cut in every
detail of its makeup. This coat also
shows velvet collar and the seams
and edges are double-stitched. The
shoulders are of medium width,
slightly squared and the bottom OF
the coat has slight flare.
For the average man there is a coat
made of semi-fancy material in a sort
OF combination style which is made
so that it may be worn on a wide
variety of occasions. This coat is

wide box back and presto" collar IS
a prime favorite with the juveniles.
These garments are made of the
mannish materials and trimmed just
like the "big" ones.
A gentleman's hunting coat and
Knickerbockers are duplicated in a
very attractive suit for a boy of al
most any age up to IA years. This
suit is made either of Scotch mix
lures, velvet, velveteen or corduroy.
The mannish mixtures which are used
are usually trimmed with velvet col
lar, belt and cuffs, although many mod
els are entirely plain except for the
belt of self material. The Norfolk
suit is very much in evidence and is
always a most sensible and becoming
garment. The latest coats of this
style have a front pleat up to the
yoke instead of clear to the shoulder.
OF course, they have the regulation
shoulder straps.
AS matter of course, trousers are
Knickerbocker style and never long
until the boy is over ID years of age,
except in sailor suits which are rec
ognized as an essential Summer style.
Wash Garments.
Sailor styles in wash garments will
be correct clear througf the season
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1910-10-02

For the smart young fellow there
are top coats made of a variety OF
fancy materials. Several models are
shown with enough ego" in them to
satisfy almost any taste, but they are
all practical as we'll. Generally they
are of the buttoned-through style
with three buttons. Lapels are
peaked and the collar is often made
of a plain material. The pockets are
patched.
Auto Overcoats.
For auto and sporting garments
many models are shown. One
especially attractive style is of plaid
backed overcoating, made skeleton
except across the shoulders and chest
Another is shown of rough Scotch
material with a buttoned-up effect
and military collar. This coat closes
with FIVE buttons and has a pleat
across the back. 1t has patch pockets
and flaps to cover.
A cravenetted coat to protect
autoists who are caught in a storm is
large and roomy and about 4o inches
in length. 1t has a pleat at the back
and has a strap on the sides for the
purpose of Tightening the coat around
the waist Some are of heavier ma.
terials than others and on the heavy
ones there is wide stitching. For the
lighter fabrics single stitching i:
used.
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1910-10-02

40 inches long and buttons through
with three buttons. 1t has peaked
lapels which button low and flap
pockets made to button, also. The
cuff finishes the sleeve and it is
trimmed with one button on the cuff
and one just above it. The collar
for this coat is invariably of self ma
terial.
For Dress Occasions.
A dress overcoat is made of dark
colored Ficuna and this garment is
absolutely essential to the man who
insists upon being correct in dress.
The latest garment is 421l inches in
length, silk-lined throughout and silk
faced to the edge. 1t closes with a
four-button fly. 1t has side pockets
with flaps. Of course the silk hat is
worn with this overcoat
Nor is variety of styling lacking in
other models shown. For the man
who likes a double-breasted frock
overcoat, there is one in full length
with front minus lapel seams, which
closes with three buttons. 1t has
peaked lapels and the collar is of the
same material. The skirt flares
moderately. Sleeves are of medium
width and show a cuff about 21l
inches or 3 inches wide.

may be alternately worn on any hat
These bands are selected with care
so that they harmonic with the color
of the hat and also with the tie and
fancy vest. A splendid assortment of
quiet color combinations are ready
for selection.
A new model that is attractive and
becoming to a great many men is a
crease crown somewhere between the
familiar Fedora style and the Trooper
hat. 1t carries in many instances a
neglgee brim, but, of course, the
rolled. brim is the more dressy. All
brims have more or less of abandon
to their makeup which gives them a
certain snap and Ego" not possessed

ways correct and is favored by a great

maintain their liking for the Velour
hats and other hats made of pile ma

WeIl-dressed men everywhere will
be wearing the telescope hats of
somwhat larger shape than formerly
and somewhat higher in the crown.
Some of the latest models are blocked
into the telescope shape; others are
telescoped by hand, just as the
wearer desires. For the most part,
brims are fiat and it is perfectly cor
rect to wear these, if desired, with a
slight fall of the brim in front to
create a sort of sweep to the hat
One of the latest novelties is a very
narrow turn-up around the outside Of
the brim and the brim is silk bound
For the most part, however, raw
edges will be preferred
The latest bands are of color to
match the hat and are somewhat
wider than they were last season
Some of them are extremely wide A

WHAT LITTLE MEN WILL :

Season by season in the designing
of garments for boys the tendency is
more marked to follow in the wake
Of styles that are correct for men.
This is plainly seen in the models for
the coming season; some of which are
exact counterparts in miniature of
mems clothing.
The double-breasted coat, so long
the favorite Winter garment with
men is one of the best styles for
boys and the auto overcoat with its

Stiff Hats.

The regulation Derby, of course,
is always in good taste and it is likely
that it will be worn more this season
than it was last. There is little diff
ference to be noted in the shape; the
size will be about the same as it was
last year and the brim about the
same width. A slightly more
rounded crown than was favored last
season is shown on the latest models.
Silk hats, of course, for occasions of
dress
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1910-10-02

black felt is the correct model for
boys of almost any age, and can be
worn with almost any style of gar
ment. The brim is turned up at the
edge. Novelty is added by the use of
fancy bands.
The Alpine hat is as great favor
lite as ever with the average boy and
the Fedora is always correct.
The touch of the Wild West which
is in tho makeup of every healthy
boy is met by the rough-rider hat and
this is one of the most popular, as
we'll as most attractive styles for al
most any age. This hat has a wider
brim than any of the others and
narrow band.
The Fashionable Neckwear.
The turnover collar, close fitting
in front, is by all odds the favorite
among boys, although upon occasion
of dress a wing collar becomes more
desirable. With the former the mar
row four-in-hand is correct; with the
latter, the bow is preferred.
Colors and fabrics in boys neck
wear are to be about the same as
those employed in the making of
mems. The tie, of course, is smaller
and is graded according to the age.

COTTON AFIRE ON CARMANIA
Cunard Liner Detained Several
Hours by Blaze in Hold.

The Cunard liner Carmania, bound for
Liverpool and Queenstown. was detained
two hours and twenty minutes at her pier
yesterday because a fire was discovered in
her hold. She was scheduled to sail al ~
a. m. and had fairly large passenger
complement for this season. At 9:45 d. m.
several members of the crew reported to
CAPTAIN Barr that there was 4 fire in one
of the forward holds. By the time Captain
Barr and the ships officers got to the for
ward hold smoke was pouring out on deck
A hasty examination showed that the
smoke was coming from part of q consign-
nlent of 292 bales of cotton slowed in the
hold Captain Roberts, the pier superin-
tendent, sent in cali for a fireboat, several
piers away, which responded promptly
Meanwhile the crew of the Carmania did
good work with hose and steam on board
ship.
The fire was practically out fifteen min
utes after the fireboat poured in her
streams but Charles P. Sumner. the agent
of the Cunard Line. who had been called
TO the pier. would not let the Carmania
leave port until every bale had been re
moved. The unloading of the cotton cargo
took bout two hours and half.
