why Not Throw Park. Open,

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
Why is 1t that the baseball grounds
in the public parks of this city are not
thrown open to the public on Sunday?
Newark has been built up 50 rapidly
in the past decade that now there is
scarcely a vacant lot in which to play
the national game. Most of the work
ingmen are unable to get away from
their shops on any week day. and thus
they are deprived of the opportunity OF
engaging in their favorite sport. The
parks are of no value unless they are
put to practical use, n l am sure that
the majority of our citizens would be
greatly pleased II the Essex County
Park Commission gave their consent to
open our ball parks on the Sabbath.

Cooked his goose as far as his col

DR.. James M. McCosh. when president

presented to him by the alumni, and
Cook had both eyes on her. He kept
his eyes upon her until he concluded
that he didn't like her color. So, one
morning, the COW appeared upon It's
favorite field painted a chaste white.
Just before that happened, a delicious
dinner from Delmonico, Their in his
prime, had appeared at Princeton and
disappeared like snow upon the
deserts dusty face after Cook had
made an investigation. Between these
two events something else had hap
pened that implicated the same prank

was the change in the color of the
faithful brindle COW that ended the
Cook college course.

MACK LEE
Is in Jail Filling His Sentence of Thirty
Days.

On his plea of guilty, as already
known to readers of newspapers, Mack
Lee was fined by Judge Boarnan to pay
$500 and stand committed until paid.
Lee was indicted for embezzlerner1f of
$500. He expressed his regret over this
act and promised to do better Lee be-
ing married recently and of good repute
and being well connected, and this being
his first oTense, Judge Boarman was
moved to leniency.
AS Lee has no means to pay the fine
of $500 after having served thirty days
in jail. he will be enabled to subscribe
to the pauper act, which will relieve him
of the payment of the $500 fine.
Lees mistreatment of the confidence
reposed in him and his finding out
should be warning to all young men.
Always bear in mind that honesty is
the best policy. Honesty at times may
be very trying, when temptation is al
Turing, but better be honest, regardless
of all inconveniences and hardship.
What would not Lee give if he could
recall this act However, being young
man he has the opportunity of re-estab-
fishing himself and being a man.

COLORS mi FABRICS.

The three colors which are used more
thar any others are coronation purple,
empire green and raspberry red. The
foundation of the hat Is nearly always
black. w will have genuine difficulty
getting away from that this year, and
the smart hat of the season is of black
silk beaver with a high round crown, a
narrow rolled brim and a large variety
of huge loops, irregular In length and
width, made of white Alencon tulle or
white crepe Francais
These two materials ars immensely
fashionable, and are worn in a great
variety of ways. but are especially ef-
fective on these silky black hats. One
cannot get away from ratine, ever in
hats, for what are called country
hats are made of 1t in the most en-
gaging manner In America we will
wear these small, e~nveloping affairs for
motoring. They will be admirable for
the girl who goes about in all sorts
of rough weather.

THE WAIST LINE.

The waist line is always a source of
much questioning at the beginning of a
new season, and there have been so
many alarming rumors thereof that 1t
is very comforting to see the same
waistline on most of the new models
there had been rumors of Polaire
Waste, and as usual we had been
warned to go back at a moments no
tice to pulled-in long waists; yet here
we are again with frocks distinctly on
the short-walsted line, with not the
slightest necessity for the normal
woma to pull in. They are not nearly
so high wasted, of course, as we have
had them, but they are sufficiently on
those lines to give the yo%uthfulness
and freedom which we thave learned
to associate with the delightful little
high-waisted frocks OF the last few
seasons.

AFTERNOON GOWNS.


The present vogue for rosewood and
gray, the latter being designed in a soft
smoke tone, will continue well on into
the winter, and some beautiful toilettes
in these pleasantly-subdued tints are
being prepared. Afternoon frocks in
nlnon and velvet combined are among
these, the ninon being of the two shades
in question, while a deep hem of gray
velvet appears at the foot of the gown,
another band of the same being used to
form the lower portion Of the corsage
With these afternoon gowns a special
fancy is that of bordering the edge of
the vest where it meets the material
of the gown Itself with large, smooth
beads the color of the fabric, in some
cases :he beads being shot to represent
the two-color idea.
