The Popularity of Empire Fashions

with the cloth skirts and for a GER
tain style of rather elaborate after
noon dress, figured silks are decid-
eddy in fashions favor. While yelled
effects are to be noticed among foul
ard gowns as in all other materials,
yelling is by no means obligatory,
and for an essentially practical dress
as simple pattern as possible should
be procured and the simpler the mod
lei 1t is copied from the better.
For a three-piece costume tussah
is as popular as ever and the pom
gees and rajahs are equally in de-
mand. 1t is we'll to determine be-
fore purchasing a piece of pongee for
a gown whether or not the silk is
waterproof, or rather will not spot
in the rain, as there are qualities
upon which the tiniest drop of water
will make an immense stain.
For travelling an excellent invest
ment is a coat and skirt of either
black or dark blue mohair Mohair is
excellent for warm weather and as
it sheds dust readily will keep look
ing fresh and trim when a cloth cos
TUNE would be gray with dust. There
are many exceedingly pretty striped,
checked and figured mohairs on the
market this year which will make up
excellently for the late spring suits.

frontier Already 1909 officers of the

tation. This represents responses from
only 81 states, or less than half the
members of the union. Illinois stands
first in the number of officers accept
ing the invitation, 195 being offered.
New York ranks second with 16S, and
the announcement that more accept

RELENTLESS WAR BEGUN.
Mexico City, March 13.-Thoroughly
aroused by the spread of brigandage
and vandalism incident to the revolu-
ton led by Francisco |. Madero, and de-
termined to protect property, the Diaz
government this week will begin to
wage against the lawless element a
pitiless war of determination.
Resurrecting a provision of the Mex
lean constitution not used in Is years,
and acting under its authorization, the
government will set aside for six months
certain personal guarantees. Those de-
tected in the act of highway robbery, Of
raiding a village or farm, or train
wrecking, or cutting telegraph or tele-
phone wires, or even of removing
spike from a railroad track or throw
ing a stone at train. will be summar
irly shot by those making the arrest.

and in these days that term implies
the well dressed woman-has adopted
this style of dress to a conspicuous de-
gree, and certainly she has done so
wisely for the style promises to remain
in vogue for some time to come.
TOUCHES OF COLOR.
Touches of vivid color on a tai
lored costume of darkest blue, green
or brown serge scamp many smart
suits of the moment. Occasionally,
but not often. there is a bit of color
somewhere on the skirt, but as a
rule, narrow collar OF bright-red
velvet or MORE upon a navy blue
revers and cuffs being of the cloth
itself, is considered quite sufficient

that the insurrectos hereafter would
proceed along the same lines, waglng
war of determination, with no quar-
ter given or asked.
Dispatches received yesterday say
that the rebels in the states OF Chihua-
hua and Sonora are displaying the
greatest activity since the hostilities
began. Numerous towns, according to
these reports, are reported to have
destroyed great amounts of railroad
and telegraph lines.
INsURRECToS LOSE AGAIN.
Following the receipts OF corrected
details concerning the battle at Casas
Grandes. a town Of about 500 peo-
pie, $50 miles southwest of FL Paso,
where so men were killed last Mon
day, news reached here of a fight at
noon yesterday at Aqua Prieta, on
the border at across the river from
Douglas, Ariz.
Five hundred insurrectos attacked
300 federal troops, but were repulsed
with total of 35 dead and wounded
on both sides. The fighting was short
and the insurrectos, armed only with
rifles, soon scattered under the fire of
machine gun.
Is AMERICANS KILLED.

report of the casualties at Casas Gran
des says that 10 Americans were kill

and this is perhaps the very latest
I idea from Paris. In the hat the color
may be suggested again in two stiff
little wings standing up straight on
each side, the straw itself being
either black or the shade of the
dress. A hat does not necessarily
match the gown with which it is
worn, and indeed some foreign note
is to be noticed in either hat or coat
of every plain street costume of dark
color.
One of the nandsomest of the new
spring cover-all coats is shown in the
first illustration. 1t was made of
cream cheviot with the collar, oddly
shaped revers and cuffs of kings
blue satin. In the second figure is
shown a most attractive little frock
fashioned from green cotton wolfe
and trimmed with bands of black
satin. The skirt was made with the
center-front panel and fiounce in one
piece. The charmingly simple little
waist was worn over a guimpe Of
Irish crochet
SOFT FABRICS FOR DRAPING.
Satins and soft silks draped in
chiffon, chiffon cloth, mousseline de
sole or marquisette are the favored
com binations for costumes for all
spring festivities; and for gowns
that must be done over to serve
a second term of usefulness, draped
robe effects solve easily what in for
mer years has often proved a dis
tressingly difficult problem.
With satin OF silk frock as foun-
dation it is possible nowadays to
turn out a gown that can take its
place unblushingly among the best in
the outlet, for when an over-dress
is added every line IN the gown can
with ease be made most satisfactor-
lily up-to-date. With most of last
years dresses considerable material
must be taken from each width in
the skirt, and often this material can
be utilized again for satin folds up
on the bodice or to fashion a new
girdle. For a slender figure a chif-
fon overskirt should be draped high
up on the waist with a tightly-ftted
two or three inch girdle. The en-
pire girdle as now adapted is abso-
lutely round. neither lowered in
front nor brought up toward the
shoulder line in back. Needless to
state the fl Iion can be followed by
women of any build, while fo- the
average young girl it is charming.
RECOVERING OLD GOWNS.
To completely. do away with any
possibility of an old gown being rec
ognized, the chiffon or marquisette
covering may be of contrasting col
or with the Foundation or else be
many tones deeper than the satin.
In the girdle should then be folded
the two different shades to empha-
size the colorings more surely.
Foulard gowns are to be every bit
as popular as last year not more
popular for it would be impossible
for any one material to be more
than was the foulard
frock of a year ago. For hot wealth
er, on such occasions when linen or
muslin is impracticable, a foulard
dress will prove indispensable. For
the woman who dwells in city a
shirtwaist frOck OF shower-proof
fouIard will make an Incompatible |
