Col. Hamer visits Meridian.

Hon. Thomas II. EIamer, candi.

ridian Monday evening, and made
an address at the political meeting.
The congressman apparently rec.

m explanation Of his record
and his tie up with Cannon He
asked for credit for getting through
the enlarged homestead bill for
dry farm settlers and the school
land lieu selection bill, one Of which
however had not yet been enacted
into law, He also claims credit for
the passage of the $20,000,000 irri.
cation bin through the house, but
tho records show that as usual he
was lined up with the Cannon in
terests and was simply forced to
give half hearted support TO the
bill introduced by Senator Borah
in the senate.
Colonel Hamer attempted 10 on.

his work Ia sustaining the duties

In closing Col Hamer said that
Cannon would not be candidate
again, but the stand pat interests
will have someone else, and we
have no assurance that Hamer will
not, II elected, line up with tho
Same crowd again. In fact there is
no doubt Of it. Col, Hamer is an

one likes to hear him, But to one
who wants u man TO represent the

far as Dictator Redfern is concerned. It's not of your ankles he would have you think, but of your backs. No; shoul- ders will not do.
 "velvets," he said sweepingly, when a reporter asked what the well-dressed woman would wear this winter
 "velvets on the street, indoors, and in the evening. Many cloaks will be of vel vet and there is never anything hand somer for the woman of good figure than the velvet gown. The newest colors will be the violets. in anticipation of the conn ing coronation. Velvet next the skin gives soft and beautiful effect, and the gowns will be cut low, yes. very low. in the back"
 He did not explain just how low, except by general wave of the hand down. ward. But an obliging woman who showed some of the exquisite gowns did.
 "To the corset line." she said without a tremor
 But this back cut is the only extreme this maker of fashions will permit Ev- erything else, he says, will be as 1t ought to be, practical and simple. Nothing but freak" he said of the present hobble skirt. "The wearing of 1t is simply lot of mad people following enc mad person.
 He was asked what he thought of the Hare of the umbrella-like hats that are being shown.
 T never criticise anything I do not make, and l do not make hats" he said, and seemed relieved Then he hurried back to gowns and the stun of gowns. Some one quoted me as saying the Louis 0uinze dress, with the long waist, was not correct. The waists will be longer this year, but not Louis Quinze Mn,n length. so That may come: though. as woman who sets fashions in Paris, Is wearing Louis Quinze gown. All the lines will be long, That doesn't mean any more severe strapping in of the hips. only that the hips shall not be exaggerated.
 but not acecntuate it. Perhaps the near est description of them is to call them emi-Grecian
 "The skirt will be cut fitting in to the knees. This effect will be obtained large ly by the use of the long tuhic. The underskirt is cut in form, and will be short for theatre and longer for dinner gowns. I have given the dinner gown slight train this year.
 The bodice. the sleeves, everything will follow the general description of the skirt. close to the figure, but not accen- tuating 1t.
 Much old-style material will be used. especially for cloaks." the arbiter went on. ''The velvets and satins are heavily hrocaded like the tapestries of old. They will be richly trimmed with fur. ermine
 7d the lighter sAbles for the expensive garments and possum for the cheaper ones."
 And what of the length of suit suits?" was asked.
 No exaEgeration," quickly. "No long coats. Just long enough to protect.
 'The trimming of gowns and cloaks will not be as elaborate as formerly Metal embroidery leads. Much of the lighter materials, such as nets, will be used for draperies. as they lend them selves especially to this graceful style.'

''Why should she kiss them all good-by?' the big fat butler sighed; "For she'll trot up the avenue Just to show that she is there, And the men who watch her figure Will all turn around and stare If she tries to board a motor Her gown will likely tear, When she wears her hobbleskirt tomor- row morning" s'What makes the house so very still," the little housemaid wept, "Since yesterday not one of us has closed an eye or slept" "They're wondering said the butler low If she has hoped or crept.

Though we've searched the town in pairs,
 Since she wore her hobbleskirt on Mon- day morning."
 Once when I was spending the winter I in that nice little town called New York, was lucky enough to attend through the kindness of some friends dress re- hearsal at the Manhattan Opera house of Peleas and Melisande.
 l thought was the 1uclxiest person alive to be there in the midst of Im- pressario Oscars melange, with Mary Garden and Tetrazzini Gerville- Reache, Delmores, Perrier, Dufranne, and a host of other stellar lights chatting away in French right at my side, while Ben Ali Haggin, the great artist. who painted the wonderful picture of Mary Garden as Thais. that hangs in the Knoedler. galler- ies, was nearby neighbor. But all that fades into insignificance when think of the privilege of being permitted a glimpse of the wonderful hobbleskirt models and the mysterious and remarkable chapeaux which will adorn the fair person of My Lady the coming season
 Every once in while some nebulous of f1ubdub like the comet or Chanticler has tc De the conventional SalVauon or sap heads. and Dame Fashion has taken the palm this season in foistering upon fem ininity the most freakish styles that flesh has ever been heir to.
 Now Chantecler wasn't worth while at all, although a rooster perched on soci- ety's hat was hailed as feather in It's cap. In fact the only. thing that re- member after reading through page after oage of words words, words, was what the little hen said when she popped her head out of the basket:
 'An eggs solid. marble till it's smashed"
 And as for the comet, it seems now to ne to be the Mrs. 'Arris of stellar in-
 erspaces,' in spite of Sairy Camp and Ter protestations. As to there being a real Mrs. 'Arris."
