SHELL FOR
YOUR HAIRPINS

Dame fashion is now turning her
attention to the reform Of ornaments
for the hair The bandeaux and other
fancy hair ornaments are going quite
out of fashion and tortoise shell, which
had long run last century, is coming
back into favor, but in quite a new
style. This is known as the cabochon
screw pin, which is development of
the screw hairpin that made its ap-
pearance when the automobile became
fashiona BILE
Straight hairpins with cabochon
heads, which, working on a hinge, are
easily adjustable are very handsome, ,;
said a Dover street dealer in these
articles "TOrtoise shell, indeed, is be.
coming very fashionable, the blond,
which is costly and rare, being the most
fancied. The favorite pin at present IS
the square tortoise shell. which can be
had for $6 a pair. but the large tortoise
shell combs rsUn to about $50 pair
There is no fear Of thief snatching
any of these costly ornaments from mi
lady's hair. as they are difficult TO
manipulate without the assistance of a
maid. 1t takes a little time to twist
them out of the hair.

WASHINGTON-The Daughters of

quarters in the beautiful memorial hall

paramount ambition of the society since
its inception in October, 1890.
Some few details in the exterior
decorations remain to be COMPLETED.
but for all practical purposes this
stately Valhalla, erected from motives
Of the purest patriotism by this or
ganization of noble and public spirited
women, stands ready for occupancy. 1t
is the costllest and most impressive
monumen, of its kind ever built by
women in this country or anv other.
From the artistic standpoint it is
one of the finest buildings which the
beautiful capital contains, and from
the utilitarian it is destined to become
one Of the most useful But most of

Miss Eugenia Washington. Miss

Nalworth are honored as the original
founders and had previously organized
the society in tentative sense
They had frequently discussed the
formation OF patriotic society for
women after the lines drawn by the
Sons of the American Revolution. and
August 8, 1890, they took the first
steps toward determining the scope Of
their embryo organization.
Mrs. Mary s. Lockwood sent forth
the most ardent appeals to patriotism,
which resulted in spreading the inter
est in the infant organization wherever
the starry banner waves From the
very beginning the necessity Of owning
suitable building was apparent, nor
only for administrative purposes. but
to preserve the relics which were flow
ing in a steady stream as the society
expanded.
From small beginnings the society
has gradually collected the fortune
which is represented in the completed
hall and in the spacious valuable tract
Of land on which the Nalhalla stands.
The hall of heroes as it stands today
in majestic completeness is a temple
of white Vermont marble of the Corin-

between c and D streets, and opposite
the rolling ground of the presidential
park where 1t gradually descends to

The Secret of Good Dressing

all dresses if this scheme be followed
out
Another secret Of being well dressed
is the exercise of good Judgment. The
eternal fitness Of things is an impor-
tant factor. Do not wear frills and
tiounces with unnecessary iewelry when
at work; and do not wear your office
shirtwaist when attending an evening
function. The unattractive figure Of a
woman should not be made conspicuous
by conspicuous costumes; the Young girl
should not affect STYLES that are suit
able to her mother.
Last Of all, avoid extremes Do not
make your hat too large in this season
.of large hats. and do not hide vour head
too decidedly under the oriental turban.
The sleeves must not approach the rid

foolishly ample, and when a dress IS i'm

WOMEN'S QUEER PETS.

The poulterer s assistant in certain
London district. who has made a pet
of q tame goose, which follows him
about like dog, and seems to take the
greatest interest in any conversation
its owner may have with another per
son. reminds one of the butcher who
/ made pets Of two little black and white
pigs And very proud he was of his
black and white twins, as he called
them.
A spinster lady of Epping, however,
was not content to keep little pig
as a pet. Nothing but 40-stone porkers
would satisfy her. She had two. Tony
and Jack, which she allowed to have
the run of the house until the author
tiles interfered in the cause of health.
Pig pets are not unknown in society
circles, among that section of the elite
which is ever in search of new novelties
and sensa tons, while some time ago a
well-known American actress took her
pet pig with her during a shopping ex-
cursion in New York. She walked it
down Broadway led by long red
ribbon, and the crowd became so great
that the traffic was held up. The police
We're irate. but the lady was calm. for
she secured an advertisement which
would have made the smartest press
manager green with envy.
\ short time ago it was announced
that the fashion in pets had changed
TO toads, and that hundreds of these
reptiles were being sold to society WON.
en-. who placed them on tables as orna-
ments 4 dealer told the writer that
the giant toads could be trained to
recognize when they We're called, and
would flop toward their owners in quite
an intelligent manner.
The favorite pets of society women,
however, seem to be snakes, lemurs. and
lizards Mrs. Arthur Cadogan, Lord
Cadogan' s sister-in-law. used to have
a python at "At Homes in her Lon
don residence her favorite pet being a
nine-foot Indian specimen. One small
snake she. frequently wore on her arm
as a bracelet.
The fashion of carrying weird reptiles
in this manner as personal adornment
originated in Paris. where small tor
toises, often ornamented with gold and
Jewels. are still carried attached to
bracelets as charms. The latest wrist
pet. however. is chameleon. which is
attached by thin gold chain to the
bracelet, and clings to the arms with
its feet and tail The mongoose is
another pet which has been adopted by
Society while rats and mice are also in
demand.
Some time ago a tame otter used to
follow Lord Linlithgow' s sisters, Lady
Dorothea and Lady Estella Hope, like
a dog. It was ultimately replaced by
a tame hare, whose family name was
"Nr. Juggins' and who was a cause
of much amusement at country house
parties-Tit-B Bits.

BLACK PIPINGS.

with persistencv is the introduction of
black pipings. They are used to empha-

The boiero line that IS certainly creep

NEW JERSEYS PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION

GTTaH HE proof of the pudding is the eating thereof. The public
utilities act passed finally by the State Legislature yes
terday is TO be judged by its future operation. 1t is an
amplifcation of the Railroad Commission act, bringing within the
scope of State authority all the public utility corporations, except
only the pipe line companies. and adding TO the powers and re-
sources of the Railroad Commission, which by the act is translated
into a utilities commission. The increased annual cost TO the State
is $4,000, or $4,000 altogether, which is a modest expenditure
compared with chat of the commissions in other States. In the
respect of rate charges there is now no public grievances, except
only as to those of the telephone service. When the STAR took
up this public wrong there had been no interest shown at Trenton
in any official or political quarter in telephone rates, and no i'm
possible utilities bill. The evidence gathered by the STAR and the
presentation of the same and arguments by Mr.. Frank H. Sommer
the STARS representative before the joint committee and one of
The members of the new Utilities Commission, brought the tele
phonerate question TO the front. made it the predominant ques
ton and accomplished the result witnessed yesterday that took
the whole State by surprise. There was opposition in the Legs
lature, sincere and honest, 10 the enactment of this bill by men
in The first utilities act passed. It was not enough for them that a
principle so long withstood and only lately so sure of defeat had
finally prevailed. That was a triumph for them that in the heat of
opposition they lost sight of. But the fact stands out that New
Jersey has a public utilities commission law, and that law will
never be abrogated. 1t remains for experience to show how it's
features can be improved. And an essential fact is that the tee
phone companies that represent a present great public grievance
are now brought under State official authority, and must submit
to inquistion into their affairs, be subject to checks upon their
acts. and will be obliged to give good reasons for their charges for
service to tn public.

The People 5 Rostrum

week, and who had planned to get a
ried this spring, was told that business
conditions made it necessary to cut
down the staff; they didn't even tell
him the truth. A young girl stenog-
rapher, who was getting So a week, was
also let go for the same alleged rea-
son. The new applicant offered to do
the work of the two discharged en-
ployees for SIS a week, and the fact
that she was little more than a second
rate s~tenographer, who ultimately
proved unequal to the task she under
took, did not help the young man who
had lost his position or the other young
woman who was let out.
This is only one of many similar
| cases, and in some instances men with
families to support are supplanted by
women with no responsibilities h
consent to do the work for a few dol
lars less. The extent to which these
conditions exist can only be realized by
a person who has watched the chang
ing phases of the cases for some years
past, and it can be said with a sin
cerity that permits of no doubt as to
the motive that this state of affairs in
the business world will before long be-
come a problem that must be met and
disposed of in no Uncertain manner,
and reformers, both amateur and pro-
fessional, will find here a fertile field
for their operations.

THE VERDICT IN THE Aids CASE.

m MOMENTOUS vote is to be taken in the New York Senate.
H\ The question will be, Have the charges of bribery against
Senator lothian p. Aids been sustained by the evidence?
A majority OF the members of the Senate are personally in sym
pathy with the accused man. and would be sure to acquit him of
the charges, without regard to the proofs, if they did not fear the
consequences TO the party in the State and to themselves indi
viduaIly in their home districts. Political considerations too often
intervene to shield a guilty man. and sometimes they can be used
to damn him. If il is a question between sacrificing Aids and
making a sacrifice of his friends in the Senate there can be only
one answer-Allds will be the sacrifice. But what the Senate will
finally do in the case is now beyond conjecture. Aids has served
powerful private interests that will be active in his behalf. He
probably has knowledge about the acts of some of his senatorial
associates. the consciousness of which will bind them to his cause.
The Republican State Committee may decide that party policy die
tates an aequittal or a verdict of not proven. So far as the public
is concerned, its mind is pretty well made up as to the truth of
the charges. The question is what the Senate will do.

THE ANNIVERSARY OF SAINT PATRICK.

61Ta HERE were great men among the early pioneers of Chris
tanity, and their names are revered by the Christian world;
but none is cherished with the affection that belongs to the.
name of ST. Patrick. Deep, indeed, was the impression he made
upon the world of humanity in his day when the tradition of his
life and character and deeds can survive in the hearts of men to
this day with such eoquence of feeling. st. Patricks great hold
upon the human affections arose from his intense and unselfsh sym
pathy with humanity. He was at once a religious missionary and
Il reformer. lie saw mulhtudes of people plunged in pagan dark
ness. living in a degraded state. with their aspirations crushed, with
out knowledge and having no future. He dedicated himself to the
great work of redeeming these multitudes from their bondage of
darkness. What wonder that Ireland, redeemed, uplifted and so
richly endowed in her sons and daughters by the labors of st. Pat
rick, adopted him as her patron saint! What wonder that the
humanity of this man appeals so powerfully to all human sym
pathies in every land where his name and fame are known!
