The Simple Wedding.

The quiet wedding seems to be far
more usual now. No longer is it con-
sidered an alarming symptom of eccen-
tricity to be married without bridesmaids

Man has always quailed before such a
catalogue. but woman appears to have
reveled in it. but the general fashion for
simplicity involves the simple wedding.

course dinner and bridesmaids are join

There are still, of course, many elab-
crate weddings, but they are not by any
means so usual as they used to be-par-

at the most fashionable" churches the
number of quiet weddings increases
steadily. The typical wedding of the day
is little gathering of relatives.

BY ELIZABETH LEE.

While i never advocated the attempt
at homemade furniture. such as getting
chair worth $50 from an old barrel.
I do think the fashion of covering old.
worn articles of furniture with pretty
fabrics is well worth while.
There are scores of women who know
how to handle a hammer and tacks.
notwithstanding all jokes TO the con-
; trary. and any one Of these handy"
women could effect a complete trans

pense by using pretty cretonne to cover
Up every bit of wood. This method of
tscking the cretonne on will appeal to
those amateur house decorators who
hate TO wait for each coat of enamel to
dry before they can see the full result
OF their labors
Tables fitted with plain square legs. as
mission styles or the shaped tables that
come with bedroom SETS lend themselves
exceedingly well to the fabric treatment.
The tiny headed upholstery lacks are
used, taking the gilt or the black iae-
oording as the material is light or dark.
Both top and legs are smoothly cover
ed and narrow fringe, ball or other
wise, is the finish around the edge of the
table top.
Bureaus are covered IN the same fash
ion. top, sides, drawers, and all. New
handles will probably be needed but
as the holes are already there to re-
ceive them these are easily adjusted.
Dainty lace mats are used on the top
OF the bureau instead OF the usual cover.
The covering for the frame Of the mir
ror is shirred instead of being tackled
on plain, and this makes the work less
difficult, when the lines are. curved

The strip of material is cut wide

GREAT BRITAIN Is MUM
ON PANAMA CANAL BILL

London. July Il.-AsIde from an admis-
sion that negotiations between the For
eign Office and the State Department of
the United States relative to the passage
OF the Panama Canal administration bill
had been begun. no official statement
came from the British government to-
day. The utmost reticence is being main
tanned.
The private secretary to Sir Edward
Grey. British Foreign Minister. informed
the Washington Herald's correspondent
to-day that in view OF the delicate state
OF affairs II was deemed advisable to
make no statement OF any kind. Nego-
tiations are still going on. however. he
said
Great Britain desires the United States
government TO hold up the passage OF
the Panama Canal administration bill
until an opportunity can be given Great
Britain to furnish the United States a
bill of particulars supporting the con-
tention that several clauses in the Pan
anna Canal administration bill are HARM

ests.

ACUTE SITUATION
OYER BRITAIN'S
CANAL ATTITUDE
Continued from Pare One.

the free use Of the canal lies In the
| declaration Of the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty of 1901 in regard to the use OF
the Panama Canal. This treaty. which
Is the last word on the subject be-
| tween the United States and Great Bril-
tain, recites that:
The canal shall be free and open to
the vessels of commerce and war OF
| all nations observing these rules. on
terms OF entire equality. SO that there
shall be no discrimination against any
| such nation. or Its citizens or subjects.
! in respect to the condition or charges
of traffic or otherwise"
The British view. according to OBJ
jections made known yesterday, holds
that to grant American ships free pas
sage. either by noncollection of tolls
or by refunding OF tolls collected, d.
rectly or indirectly, Is a violation of
the treaty. The opposing view Is that
the treaty will not be violated by such
treatment OF American ships. Those
holding this view declare that the trea-
ty simply guarantees to England that
there shall be no discrimination by the
United States against English ships in
favor of German ships. or vice versa,
or as to the ships Of any other nation.
England agrees that the canal is ours.
say persons supporting this view: why,
then. they ask, Is not our title clear to
do exactly as we please with our own
canal.
U. s. Has Clear Title.
The Presid ,nt's view and that OF Sec
rotary Stimson. who as head of the
War Department, is in charge OF the
canal at this time, is that the United
States has an absolutely clear legal
right to Permit American ships to pass
through the canal upon whatever terms
II sees fit to impose, regardless of the
conditions under which foreign ships
may be allowed to use the canal Yet
Secretary Sumson holds that it is not
az this time advisable, as a matter of
policy. TO grant American ships use of
the canal without charge
The Spanish government. IL is stated,
has already arranged to pay the tolls
charged against any OF its vessels using
the Panama Canal. Thus. il is argued.
American ships will, IL made to pay
canal tolls. be competing with a subsi-
died rival through an American owned
canal.
Secretary Stimson is of opinion that
this matter and meet Great Britain
squarely upon the issue.
On the other hand, Senator Burton, a
member Of the Committee on Foreign
Relations, to-day expressed himself on
the subject as follows:
Il am opposed to the exemption be-
cause Il is contrary at least to the spirit
and. indeed. the letter of the treaty.
The expense Of building the canal is
enormous, and il is fair that the people
OF the whole country should receive a re-
turn in the way of tolls Our ships have
a monopoly OF the domestic trade. and
question IL the shipper would gain any
benefit from the exemption
from tolls Of American ships
