VARIETY IN VANITY BOXES
Some In Parasol Handles, Others In
the Heads Of Hat Pins, and
All Are Pretty.

Ingenuity lavishes itself upon the
vanity box which woman has come to
regard a necessity. Every season
sees It in new and more cleverly de-
vised forms.
The newest development are the
parasol top and the hatpin vanity
box. At the top Of the metal handle
of the parasol circular lid opens
and discloses powder puff and box,
and mirror set into the cover.
The immense hatpins in vogue sug
gested the possibility of accommo-
dating powder box and mirror. Many
of the big ball heads or the highly
arched disk heads carry these little
toilet necessaries.
Locket powder boxes come in all
sizes from little ones an inch and a
half long to those measuring three
inches. They are worn like an ordi-
nary locket on chain about the neck.
Or bangle from bracelets or from this

Round FrllI at Neck.

The fiat, round plated frill han
usurped the place of the round, fat
lace collar. 1t is not becoming, as a
rule, but that makes no difference to
the votaries Of fashion. This frill In
made of very sheer material laid In
fiat plants which spring out about an
inch from the edge. This edge In
nearly always finished with lace.
The collar is intended to be worn
with a slightly low neck or whits
blouse in the same way that ths
Peter Pan and Dutch collars have
been applied.
The small frill goes straight around
the neckband and fastens with large
cabochon, from which hang uneven
tabs Of black velvet or satin ribbon.
Few girls can wear this even round
line at the neck, for the human face
requires a dip at the front OF the
neck no matter how 1t is obtained.
Therefore II girl wants to be fash
ionable and wear one of these frilled
collars and look well in 1t she should
dip It down to show her neck.

The Rose Muff.

The well-dressed women of Paris
and Vienna have come to the conclu.
sion that 1t Is no longer necessary to
wear gloves In the summer months.
They have discovered that gloves.
whether kid, silk, suede. twill or
Danish leather are not only uncomfort-
able In the hot season, but are preju-
dicial to health. So In June, July, Au-
gust and September the hands must
be left quite gloveless, not even mitts
being fashionable.
The no gloves idea has been well
coined by votaries of tennis, golf, cro-
quet and rowing. To cover the hands
while at these sports has been a great
mistake, they argue.
While gloves are discarded 1t is not
intended that the hands of the woman
In a ballroom or theater shall be
exposed. They are to be placed in a
more agreeable prison in the form of q
rose muff.
The rose muff is made of wire SO
fashioned that flowers, more particu-
larly roses, can be inserted. It is al
most as long and as broad as the or
binary winter muff. The roses placed
in It remain fresh for six hours. The
introduction of this portable rosary
has been voted a success. Several
were seen at fashionable race meet
ings at Auteuil and Longchamps and
attracted admiration.
Naturally the rose mum is not alto
gether cheap. but It is pretty.

Road OPERATOR WHO died
FOUR YEARS Ago.
Coon After Her Husbands Death She
Married Young Miner = Divorced

seclusion At Yerkes' Mansion, Final
ly Going To New York.

New York, April Mrs. Mary AIDE
laide Yerkes, widow of the late Charles
r Yerkes, died at her home in this city
tonight.
It was about "a years ago that she,
as Mary Adelaide Moore, the daughter
of druggist, was married to Charles T..
yerkes. a multimillionalre railroad CD.
orator of Chicago. 1t was 10 years
later that the couple separated.
Upon the death of her husband, four
wears ago, she received, it is said, more
than 100000 as her portion of his
estate, and within a few months she
was married to Wilson Miner, New
York playwright, much younger than
she. 1t was barely a week later that
they separated and divorce proceedings
ensued, which she won.
The circumstances surrounding the
brief, but violent courtship and sudden
marriage of Miner and the matronlv
Mrs. Yerkes, and the briefness of the
HONEYMOON, were made sensations of the
day. Miner brought a crowd of re-
porters to the house where his bride
and himself were stopping and she APP
peared on the balcony to please him.
When the rupture came another series
of sensational reports were scattered
broadcast.
After Mrs. Yerkes' divorce from Miz-
ner she returned to live in the seclusion
of the Yerkes mansion until it was sold
by the executors and then she moved
to the Madison avenue house, in which
she died
She had been in failing health since
last November. She seemed to unable
to regain her strength and five weeks
ago took to her bed with heart affection.
At the deathbed when the end came
were Mrs. Yerkes' three sisters, Mrs.
Harry Sanderson and Mrs. E. Stockton
of Philadelphia, and Mrs. Charles Sims
of New York. When it was seen that
the end was near, three brothers who
live in Philadelphia were telegraphed
for.

TAFT TELLS JONES WHY

Senator Jones, at invitation of the
president, called at the White House
Saturday and discussed the Mexican
situation and the causes leading up
to the mobilization of troops along the
southern boundary. President Taft, in
confidence, showed Senator Jones the
official record on which he based his
order concentrating troops along the
Mexican line, and showed him fully his
reasons for taking such drastic step.
Senator Jones, after getting this ex-
planatlon, expressed the opinion that
the president was entirely justified in
the course he had taken.
Senator Jones went so far as to say
mat Mexico was the only country in
