Kate Lapinski was given a hearing
last evening before Justice Amos. She
was charged with robbing William
Connor, who was in the Lapinski home
at the time he lost his money. She
was acquitted.
The warrant under which MRS. La
pinski was arrested charged William
Spray jointly with the offense.
According to the evidence adduced
at the trial Spray is the culprit in the
case. Spray skipped out and the au,
thorities have no trace of his where

The story of the case is that Spray
and Connor7 went to the Lapinski
home on Monday night. Both were
under the influence of liquor at the
time. After their arrival at the La
pinski home they called for some wa

HOW LONG SHOULD 1T
TAKE WOMAN TO DRESS?
The Girl on the Stage VS.. the Girl in Society

The problem Of how long 1t should
take a woman to dress has puzzled the
world from the beginning. No record
has been made of it in history, and
there is, so far as we have yet learned,
no authority as to whether or not
Adam became "peeved"- at the time
it required Eve to don her fig leaf be-
fore they went apple hunting In the
Garden of Eden. In modern times, as
well as ancient, it seems TO be an ldlo-
syncransy with the fair sex to keep
masculine escorts waiting whether 1t
pleases the men or not. Cleopatra real
ly required only a few seconds to ar
ray herself to receive callers, but she
rushed quickly into the favor Of An
thony after having kept him waiting
while she CARRIED herself in a few laces
and gauze and jewels for the recep-
ton.
1t is the same today Modern women
take their own time to dress, no mat
ter in what hurry the brother, hus-
band or lover may be to reach the
theater or ball.
Hurry up, dear, the cab is waiting,
does not appear to have the least ef-
feet upon their efforts.
THE proper time for arraying one
self for, say, an evening at the thea
ter, is one hour" says the society wo-
man. NO woman who values and I'M
derstands the art of making herself

attractive attempts to dress In less
time than that"
Six or seven minutes" says the act
ress- Anyone can do it in that time,
ana o1ten less, and we look JUST as
beautiful as any who occupy the boxes

Who is right? One dresses for the

Dress In Six Minutes.
There is such a wide divergence be-
tween the estimate of these authorities

lures an hours adjustment the matter
.. roolng or dfsrobing a principal or
cnorus girl may offer unique sugges-
Iohs. Certainly husbands who wait
anu surfer will be interested in how

In the cast of THE Alaskan" is Miss
jessie Stoner, prima donna, who gives
me- personal opinion. Several of the
chorus girls, who have even more
changes to make during the perform
anee Of the opera, add their assertions
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1910-02-07

to the argument that the society wom-
en- are wrong.
Miss Stoner is seen on the stage in
a simple gown, apparently unconscious
of time, while she jests with dra-
matte critic. Six minutes later She is
singing in another equally becoming
costume with the chorus. In another
act she is seen in still a different cos
tune. It is to this she makes the fast
est change The time she is allowed
is just five minutes.
Miss Eta Lockhart enters her dress
ing room in street gown, and in eight
minutes she appears on the stage in
costume.
Chorus Breaks Record
It remains for the chorus girls IN
break these records. They have To he
dressed with absolute correctness. So
ciety women who require one hour
make no excuses for lack Of proner
gowning of the chorus girl.
The layman may insist that the
gowns are only hung and are not
built as substantially as street clothes.
but quite the reverse is true in both
cases, for a modiste was never more
