New MADAME x" Hat

That the stage leads rather than
follows in the matter Of feminine
fashion is indicated by the great popu-
larity Of tho new "Madame x" hat,
perhaps the most popular of all the
spring models Of women's headgear.
This hat, of which great many arc:
now seen inn Salt Lake City, first came
into notice in Paris, when Bisson Y
celebrated drama, MADAME X,"
which Henry w. Savage is to offer at
the Colonial Monday, was first pro-
duced, The hat is worn in the Arst
act by Jacqueline, the heroine Of the
play, and is such a novel eonceit that
the famous milliners of Paris were
working overtime to I'll orders befors
the drama was a week old. OF course,
the vogue OF the Madame Z" hat
was not long in reaching England and
America. and it gives every indication
Of becoming quite as popular as "Ths

journed to 7:3O p. m. A deputa-
ton of citizens waited on the
Council to ask that action be sus-
pended in the matter of recom-
mending liquor licenses to the
County Court until the Council
could satisfy itself that the cleo
ton had been conducted accord
ing to the terms of the Call. and
that no improper means had been
used to influence the result.
The delegation included the
following citizens of Charles
Town: Bishop Gravatt, Rev. ].

Rev. Jno. S. Alfriend, (Rev. DR..
A. Ca Hopkins telephoning his

A Card.

In order that no misapprehen-
sion may exist in the public mind
as to the attitude of the No Lii
cense Committee in the matter of
the election held in Charles Town
on the 4th inst, I desire to say
that this election was not held at
our instance or request, but at the
special instance of the Council of
Charles Town, as will appear from
the language of the Call, and was
to be without prejudice to the
movement in Town and County,
having for its aim a petition to
the County Court. The first and
second clauses of said Call..are as
follows:
1st. That the legal voters of
the Town be requested to give ex-
pressions of their will in this
matter at an election to be held on
Thursday, May 4th, 1911.
End. That this section is taken
without prejudice to the move
ment now on foot in our town and
county having for its aim petit
ton to our Honorable County
Court against the granting of Ii
cense in town and county
IF the result of the Town cleo
ton had been different, we would
have worked just as hard as ever
to make the whole County dry.
