DON'T BE FOOLED

The issues of the municipal cam paign stand forth with unusual clarity for it may be truthfully stated that there is but one point wherein the Tax Payers party presents an original issue. and that is the stand for the wide open" town and the re-estab- lishment of the houses of i'll fame on Seventh avenue.
 The cry of economy comes with very poor grace from the Tax Payers party. The last time the Tax Payers held the reins of government. during The Shea administration, they expend- ed more than sSO,OOO and left a debt Of S2,952.57 for the present council to assume. The present council say ed more than $11,OOO in public expend itures and yet conducted the towns affairs on a decreased revenue of more than s6.5OO than of the preced- ing year.
 The credit of proposing a reduction of the expenses of the public school also belongs solely to the Citizens party, for Secretary Miller of the school board embodied the recOmmen dations for salary reductions agge- gating $500 in a report made to the council March 21
 Now, however, the Tax Payers party has adopted these issues and are seeking office on a platform of which every plank but one is composed of promises to do what the Citizens party has already done,
 The one issue where the parties differ is on the disposal of the re stricted district. The present council closed Seventh avenue to prostitution in response to a widely signed peti- ton from property owners and vOt- CTS. and if the candidates of the party are elected to office they propose thar this street shall remain closed to this form of vice.
 The platform of the Citizens party pledges this in emphatic language; while, on the other hand, the Tax Payers party, make an opposite stand their main issue in verbal arguments. yet absolutely refrain from making mention of it in their platform.
 At the Tax Payers convention one of the speakers stated that what was needed was a system to get the money" Che did not say who the money was to be gotten for) and "descried the efforts of a few mar row ebested hypocrites who had hurt the town and decreased municipal revenues,
 Later, published statement over his name, William Britt, stated it is the consent of the nominees to locate the colony somewhere, and not have it scattered all over town as it is today. If no other location could possibly be found than around Seventh avenue. I believe the col uny's' presence there could be shield ed from public eyes as well as on any other street
 This is the sheerest eQuiyocation, for doubtless mo other location could possibly be found" and in all lfkli- hood an ostensibl attempt would be made to shield the colony from public eyes on Seventh avenue" Just what means would be taken to shield

With record of having turned thou

sides doing a capacity business in the
majority of the minor coast cities;
the Sells-Floto Shows come back for
their regular season of joy making on
Thursday. September L.
/ This is the first circus to arrive this
/ season. But this year comes the an
nouncement that the price of admis-
/ sion has been cut in half, or in other
words, the people can see the big show
for twenty-five cents.
| The circus is the most ancient form
OF amusement. Wonderful structures
were built by the ancients to satisfy
this particular passion and strange to
say, although almost every other form
| of entertainment that the human mind
has been capable of inventing. has
come and gone during the years which
have interviewed from the Circus Max
linus to that of today, the tented show
has never lost its attraction for young
and old alike
The Sells-Floto people make an Of
fer to the public, which has never been
duplicated in the history of the world.
When we realize that the operating
cost of this circus runs over the $4,000
mark per day and that the average
theatrical attraction rarely costs that
much per week, also considering the
difference in price charged at the box
office of the theatre and the % cents
charged for admission to the great
Sells-Floto Shows; we must concede
that the circus people have taken
time by the forelock and are manufac-
turing history on their own account.
The verdict has been left to the great
American public. What their answer
has been is shown by the reports COM
ing from the great coast cities above
mentioned.

LONDON, Aug. 27.-The name of
Tennyson signed to poem in cur

the passing of the poet laureate. His
son, the present Lord Tennyson, is
poet, even if only minor one. Lord
Tennyson has served his country as
governor of South Australia. He con-

nal of the Royal Colonial Institute,

coLoRs RICH, NOT GAUDY
Hats and Gowns This Winter Will be
Brilliant.

Brilliant.
NEW YORK, Aug. FIT is safe to
conclude after seeing the newest hats
and gowns shown in the shops that
the colors for the coming season are
to be wonderfully rich and beautiful
and that they will at the same time
always escape gaudiness.
Even the gold that is used in ev-
cry imaginable form is not allowed to
produce effects that are too snowy,
for there are many ways in which
its brilliance can be toned down. Gold
laces are made to disappear under
transparent veilings whenever and
wherever it is believed desirable, and
many of the nets, galloons and braids
are woven with an intermixture of
fine black threads.
Fabrics of silver or stell threads
need to be combined with warmer
tone, which is often successfully sup
piled by gold. In one of the autumn
hat models the GOODNESS of draped
gown of eXQuisitely fine dull steel lace
is relieved by the brown of little
band of skunk fur, and there are in
Vulnerable other enchanting color COM
binations in the fastest headgear. One
of the most striking of these was
seen in a little clOche of violet silk
procaded in black and gold, which
was trimmed with large rosettes Of
pale blue and rose shot taffeta. A
quilting of gold gauze as an outer edge
for the rosettes made a connecting
link between the hat and its garniture
: decorative band for another of
the small hats had for a foundation
royal blue satin, which yelled with
an exceedingly fine net of gold and
black. Over this was a coarse, string
colored lace and conventional spray
of leaves and flowers done in black
and gold braid completed this allur-
ing arrangement of material and col
ors.
