PUMPKIN PIE is NOW
MADE POLITICAL ISSTE
Insulted Pastry May Cost Brash Con.
ressman His Seat.

Muskogee, Okla, October 25.-A
good, old-fashioned luscious pumpkin
pie and a failure to eat the same with
a pretty Cherokee Indian girl has
made many enemies for Charles f,
Cruger, member of congress from the
Third Oklahoma district, and will
probably cost him his seat.
A short while ago while campaign
ing in the Cherokee Nation. Creager
attended pie social at Needmore. an
interior village. The girls of the
neighborhood had made good pump
kin pies and put them in pretty boxes
to be ratified off. Custom decreed that
the winner of a pie should hunt uo
the maker and eat it with her.
Representative Creager drew a pie
and, ignorant of local customs. went
outside and dropped it in the weeds.
Auctioneer Thomas Burke considered
this an insult to the girl who hal
baked the pie, and publicly denounced
Creager.
Burke carried the matter in emphatic
terms to County Chairman Collins.
who took a couple of shots at Burke
Since the incident occurred the story
has gained weight and become a DO
litical weapon which is being used
with telling force against Creager.

AUTUMN COSTUMES
HERE DISCUSSED
MOIe-Gray is Again the
Smart Color.

New York, October Mole-Grly
is again the smart top-note, both in
cloth and cashmere, for autumn cos,
tunes. One of them has a pleated
skirt, plain at the sides, but with a
wide boxpleat front and back, with
a rich design in braiding about the
line of the knees, and continued 20
the hem. The coat is long, for though
most of the new coats are short, there
are many that are very long.
The one in question is braided in
black, and has handsome frogs across
the front below the revers, which are
faced with sage-green velvet A wide
band of black military braid borders
it round the edge, and there is a curv-
ed line of this braid, a la Zouave
which gives a good tournure to the
figure.
Purple i'm Again.
Quite half of the well-dressed w.
men one meets are wearing purple
vet. There is no denying that it is a
becoming color to the pink and white
complexion, and looks especially wei
when the hat matches it. But to the
pale or sallow person it is most inap-
propriate, though they seem to cher
ish particular affection for it.
Lovely Example.
A good example of purple gown is
seen in one with the skirt in cloth W
to the knees, and in ninon from that
point to the small embroidered net
yoke. The coat is purple velvet with
delicious touch!-a turquoise satin
collar embroidered lightly in tone OF
gray and amber. That three material
should be combined in one gown is b.
no means outre. 1t is quite usual.

against whose election as governor the

those really desiring honest and eff
