GREAT VARIETY OF BUTTONS
Each Feature Of Fashion Has . De-
Sign to Correspond With
the Costume Worn.

An inspection of the most recent
importations and domestic products In
buttons will disclose the fact that
for nearly every pronounced feature
in fashions a corresponding button is
worked out either in color, in desjgn,
or both.
The oval, semispherical and mound
ed surface buttons are quite pr0mi.
nent among the newer showings. IL
tho ball effects black and white
checks are very numerous and the
mound.shaped buttons Of metal in
clude several novelty lines in ham,

fectly round or oval, most Of these
have a dattened appearance. In the
same shape acorns, worked out in
gilt, gunmetal, nickel and other I'm.
ishes, are being offered in varying
sizes.
Crochet and passementerie buttons
are two Of the styles thai conform
with fashion indications.

WESTERN LAND OF ROMANCE
Mexico 10 Rspists With Stories o.
chlvalry; Devotion and the a.
ventures Of Love.

II Cervantes smiled SPANS chivalry
away he failed to carry his influence
into Mexico. That country has always
been a land Of romance. The people
there have chung to the habits which
grew out Of their old Spanish ancestry
and their climatic environment. They
still have their midday siesta. their
1east days and holidays. spend their
money freely and dress poorly. The
present insurrection is full of episodes
that would happen probably In no
other country of the world. Out Of
them the imagination of Hugo, a
Dumas or a Scott might build many
romance of love and adventure. For
In Mexico love and fighting still go
together. as they used to do in the
days Of medieval knight errantry.
A striking and at the same time
somewhat pathetic illustration Of this
was the long journey over the desert
to the town of Juarez undertaken by
a number Of women, wives. mothers
and sweethearts Of the soldiers 1t the
front. Accompanied by children, dogs,
cats and goats, they travelled more
than 200 miles to be near the soldier
boys. for whom Mexican women feel
so romantic an attachment.
The women had been left behind in
chihuahua when two battalions of
Mexican infantry were sent to the bor-
der. Impatient at the absence of those
they loved, they got a pushcart. loaded
1t with such necessary articles as it
would hold and propelled it over the
dreary wastes and around the burned
bridges. taking their turn in squads at
pushing the cart. The journey occu-
pied two weeks, food being obtained at
a few settlements which lay along
the route. Each of these women might
make a heroine of romance, for they
knew neither fear nor fatigue where
love was concerned.
But the romance Of the Mexican
insurrection has not been confined to
the women. A few days ago Gen. Cuel-
lar. chief of STAFF to President Diaz.
who defeated Francisco Madero's army
at Casas Grandes, but lost an arm in
the engagement, telephoned his condo
lence to Madero on the reported
death Of the insurgent leaders father.
It is said, too. the Madero's son sent q
message of regret to Cuellar on the
latters loss of his arm. The two had
once been school fellows together. All
this is very picturesque and romantic.
But the present Is a practical age and
impulse and emotionalism need q
strong hand for guide.

New York-"Do you see these?"
remarked man who raises mush-
rooms, as he pointed to a pile of
mushrooms. well, happen to know
that those mushrooms came out of a
coal mine in Pennsylvania
Seems funny, doesn't it, that mush-
rooms and coal should come from the
same place, but the fact is that quite
a few mushrooms are taken out of the
mines now. Occasionally they help
to glut the market, too.
"Of course. as everybody knows,
two essentials are a proper fertilizer
carefully applied and an even tenn
perature. Some bright person who
knew something about mushrooms
discovered that when it came to grow
ing them artificially the dark cham

ordinary cellar, and that you could
raise mushrooms at less cost In them.

are lots of places in the Pennsylvania
coal mines which can be used for
growing mushrooms, and before long

quite a factor in the market, l be-
lieve
The largest part Of New York's
supply Of mushrooms comes from
Pennsylvania anyway and some of the
large growers are located In the coal
regions, hence it Is not strange that
should be taken up there.
Nowadays the profit in raising
mushrooms for the market is not
what 1t used to be. Formerly the
mushroom grower could easily get 81
a pound for them and was always
sure of getting his crop taken as fast
as it matured. Four thousands pounds
OF mushrooms might be called a fair
crop for the man who makes q bust

able it was then.
1.-THE number Of mushroom raisers
has increased tremendously in the last
few years, with the result that last
week. for example, you could buy the
best mushrooms for Is cents a pound
The mushroom market is uncertain
because it isn't regulated at all. There
are no seasons for mushrooms and no
combination of growers. Hence al
times the market is glutted With
them, while at other times the amount
brought in is small and the price goes
up.

HORSTMAN DISCHARGED
BY THE GRAND JURY
The Opening Session of United States
Court.

The United States grand jury yes
terday submitted its first report, the
first announcement concerning which
was that the charge against VIII
liam J. G. Horstman charged with
embezzlement had been ignored. This
announcement was received generally
with satisfaction.
Horstman was the money order
clerk at the postOffice until about
three months ago when he informed
Postmaster McClintock that he was
short in his accounts. He gave the
amount of the shortage, something
more than $500. He stated that he
had expected money by the first of
the following month to make good
the shortage. His revelation was
made in advance of that time prob
ably by reason of the fact that In
spectors Dutton and Golden had en-
tered upon an inspection Of the ac-
counts of the office
In going over the accounts Of the
money order department they found
the shortage a little less than Horst
man had given it. He had made an
error against himself 1t was regard

not falsified his accounts. Within
the time he had expected his money
