ALL BUSY
Senators All Busy At
Washington in Various
Committee Rooms

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 29.-
Committee meetings were in order
today for senator's, members of the
more important committees arriving
early at the capitol 10 acquaint them
selves with the mass of matter that
has been piled up since congress con
vened and which has remained prac-
tically untouched. The fact that when
the senate adjourned yesterday it was
not to meet again until Monday gave
an opportunity to prepare for the Sc
rious business of the session which
had been prevented by factional con-
test over the committee assignments
in the Republican ranks.
The house again had the free list
bill before it. An effort was made
yesterday to follow the lead of the
senate and adjourn until Monday but
the effort was frowned on by the
Democratic leaders because of the in
creasing number of members who have
announced their intention of speaking
on the measure. Representative Ham
mond Of Minnesota, today made one
o: the principal speeches in advocacy
Of the bill.

REAL
HOT STUFF
GOV. ShafrOth Hands The
Legislature a Well
Merited Roast

The following is part OF lengthy
message sent, by the governor this
week, to the members of the Eigh-
teenth General assembly. In it he
certainly shows that ne realizes the
conditions existing and the package he
hands out is a most appropriate one.
"The Eighteenth General assembly
has been in session for one hundred
and thirteen days; and yet not one
platform pledge has been placed by
this legislature upon the statute
books. Is there any excuse for this
failure.
"The pledges were made in the con-
vention of 1908. The same platform
was reaffirmed in the convention of
1910, after thorough discussion, by
the unanimous vote of every county,
but one, of this state. We were elect
ed upon these solemn obligations. Are
the people going to be deceived again?
Are we to affirm the perfdious say
ing that platforms are made to get
in on, but not to stand onf Are
we ready to repudiate our agency of
the people, and again demonstrate
that representative government is a
failure? He who thinks that such a
betrayal can be made without cen
sure and condemnation little under
stands the trend of events now taking
place in all parts of the United States
in behalf of the rule of the people.
Abraham Lincoln once said: You
can fool all of the people sometimes;
you can fool some Of the people all
the time; but you can't fool all of the
people all of the time
81 warn you now that an avalanche
Of public sentiment is coming. as sure
as right is right, against those who
who refuse to redeem their contracts
of honor.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN F. SHAFROTH,
Governor"

Senate Gets Down TO
Real Work and Passes
Twenty-Five Bills

DENVER, April 29.-Besides the
Allen tunnel bill, which went through
with flying colors and votes to spare,
the senate passed twenty-five meas
ures on third reading yesterday aft
einoon. 1t is the best days work the
body has done since the session began
ll6 days ago. The same industry must
also be used from now until next
Tuesday in order to clean up the spe-
cial order of calendar bills which are
forty-four in number, on second and
third reading.
One of the surprises was the num-
her Of votes mustered for the Moffat
tunnel bill and friends of the meas
ure declared that, had it gone over
another day, the total would probably
have been even more than 81. Only
twelve senators registered themselves
against it on roll call. Senator Crow
ley and Tucker were absent. The for
mer, SO it is understood, would have
been found with the tunnel forces.
Senator Tucker (Republican) would
have opposed.

KEEPER KILLED by ELEPHANT.

DIXON, Mo, April 29.-Hundreds
of persons yesterday saw an infuri-
ated elephant hurl its trainer into the
ali and then, after crushing him with
IT. weight. repeatedly pierce the body
with its tusks. The tragedy came
while James Hildebrand, the trainer,
was endeavoring TO put the animal
which belonged to a wild west show
into a car.
Aildebrand was adjusting the chains
which bound the animal To it's mate
and without a warning. the elephant
became enraged and wrapping its
trunk around the trainers body lifted
him high in the air and dashed him
t, the ground. 1t is believed that he
was killed instantly.
With its rage still unsatisfied the
elephant began kneading the trainers
body with its fore feet and then drag
ged the body thirty feet along the
railroad tracks in the yards and re
peatedly thrust its tusks into it.
Th'sAeheS VI thc oho" ~, uiiSe ran
to the rescue with pitch forks and
,sirove the elephant from its victims,
but the animal was not subdued until
its sides were streaming with blood
from the gads. Immediately after
the tragedy the elephant was shot.
Hildebrand had been its trainer for
years, and had frequently slept beside
the elephant.

FADs AND FASHIONS.

NEW YORK, April 29.-During the
past few months the large shops have
made great display of tailored cos
tunes in medium weight materials and
recently they have added many charm
ing models Of still lighter tailored and
semi-tailored costumes OF silk for
spring wear. 1t is always well, If
possible, To have two tailored suits for
the summer season; one a practical
plainly tailored suit for rough wear,
outing purposes, etc, the other OF
dressier character. An attempt to
combine the two is seldom successful,
but many women now do awey with
the dressy tailored coat and skirt and
Llcuse, or three-piece costume, sIbsli-
tuting for il a smart one-picce short
frock to be worn with separate coat.
Some extremely pretty models are
now appearing in the exclusive shopR.
They are in changeable taffetaa with
etamine or chiffon in combination, ind
while there has for some time past
been a prejudice against tafFeta the
most autocratic makers are certainly
taking 1t up. The texture and finish
of the newest taffetas are really love-
ly and the colorings, particularly the
changeable effects, are beautiful

NEW CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO

NEW YORK, April Stockhol,.
ers of the Chesapeake and Ohio rail
way met today to give their approval
to the directors proposal for an issue
of $125, 100000 of per cent 20 year
mortgage bonds. Part of the new

and in beautiful colorings. Very dark
biue and rather vivid rreen are
good in this changeable silk A soft
brown combines well vith an old blue,
a rose with violet, gray with rose
on deep golden yellow. Another idea
developed successfully in changeable
eolorings is the froclf of changeable
etamine trimmed in soft ruches of
fringed ehangeable taffeta and with
little coat of the taffeta to match.
II may be remarked here that ruches
are evidently finding considerable ia
vor and one sees them trimming all
kinds of frocks. One of the most ar
tistic and charming models shown in
one of the shops was an exquisite fine
fancy net in the yellowed tone of old
lace, made very simple with a beauti-
ful fichu of old lace and fringed ruches
of silk in soft yellowish brown for
the only trimming.
Coat and frock costumes Of grena-
dine or etamine and silk, with loose
unlined coats in the semi-transparent
material trimmed in the silk, are
shown in some of the most attractive
designs, and there are aerviceable lit
tie costumes in the plain charmeuse,
meteore and other satin surface silks.
the foulards, surah, silk serges, etc.
Good linen coat and skirt models ad-
mirable in design, cut and finish, may
be bought at prices surprisingly rea-
sonable even at very smart and ex-
elusive shops. Almost every ultra
modish shop has some specialties in
this line and in the simple one-piece
linen and other tub frocks, which they
have made up to meet the demand for
such things among their valued pat
rons and to keep these patrons from
resorting to the big shops; and there
are speciality shops where chic models
of this kind are sold in great variety
and at remarkably low prices.
For some reason or other the de-
signers of women's fashions are max
ing frantic efforts to popularize the
trouser or harem skirt In Paris the
women seem to have taken fancy
to the new style and they seem de-
termined to give it at least trial.

sponse to the appeal of the National
Association for the Study and Pre-

The prominent makers of women q
dresses are turning out large numbers
of these skirts and. realizing that
some redeeming feature must be in
uoduced in these skirts to make them
attractive. the designers have concab-
trated their efforts upon beauty OF
material. soft and supple, artistically
designed and showing the most exquis-
ite workmanship. In spite of these
efforts. and the prediction Of pron,-
inent designer that trouser skirts
would be worn generally year hence.
the sensible. refined women of good
taste are not showing any inclina
tion to adopt the trouser skirt.
Bonnets are worn great deal at
the present time and prominent mil
linera say that they will be In fash
ion throughout the summer and prob
ably in the fall. The type of bonnet
one sees most often on the street Ia
built up in rough straw, has round
crown quite covering the head down
to the neck in the back and slight.
ly projecting poke brim and is trim
med with big bow set low in the
back, and perhaps by come little prim
nosegay or single flower posed near
the edge of the brim in front. The
brim may be lined with contrasting
color or with self color.
But, II must not be imagined that
all bonnets are built upon the same
simple and conservative lines. Some
of them are extremely audacious and
many Of them, unfortunately unspeak
ably vulgar and ugly. Even the cen
servatives and really pretty models
are not suitable for all women. They
are becoming and even attractive en-
a young and slender girl, but lJok
perfectly hideous and ubsurd upon
short and fat women who have pass
ed the period of their youth
There are strings upon a good many
of the bonnets, though they are the
exception rather than the rule and
they are usually tied well At the left
side. Occasionally, however. one sees
strings knotted demurely under the
chin. and ribbon trimming the bonn.t
may perhaps be knotted on the out
side OF the brim at the left side and
fall in loops and ends down over
the shoulder, without passing under
the chin at all.
