Smell Is Favored

A year ago Marshall X. Smell
wanted North 3rd, 4th and 9Th
streets paved from I to X. Other
property owners protested. Then
they all agreed to do it this
spring.
This spring the Methodist
church protested and said 1t
could not build the new church
with the street paving going on.
Others also kicked. But Smell In
sisted this morning and the paw
ing will go ahead.

Barnes Declares Teddy Has Strayed
 After False Gods
Especial from United Press.)

Albany, Feb. 17.-PoIitfcal leaders were greatly interested, today, in the open charge made by William Barnes, IT,, chairman of the Republican State Committee, that Colonel Theodore Roosevelt has ':strayed after false gods" The speech, made early today to the members of the Barnes County organization at it's annual dinner, was taken as an open intimation that, un- less Roosevelt -recants, he cannot get the 'organiza tion' support for his presidential candidacy.
 "No greater error," said Barnes, "could be committed at this time in the interest of the very princip'es to which we adhere than to uphold any man, however deluded he may be, in his endeavor to break down those fundamental principles of individual liberty and constitutional rights which are the foundation of our governm ent and which must be the reality of the Republican party, because, whether for a few hours or weeks, he whom we have honored and who. in the past we have given out votes, has strayed through devotion to false gods from the real principles of the Republican
 NO matter what may be the ap- parent reason, as given in the news papers, we do not forget the great service he has rendered to tn people in tn Gays of the Spanish war and of the inauguration of the Panama Cana'-although we may utterly de- precate what apparently is an unfor- tunate error of judgment"

They should be led out Do tire repast should be placed on the ta- ble after the old time manner. The carving and serving should be done by those at the table ends. Cover the meat and vegetables with plated silver covers, while the soup is serv- ed from a tureen-

 After dinner the writer suggests that basket of favors be distributed red white and blue wrapped in tissue. and that the one who guesSes the relation of the largest number to WashingsOn's life should be given a small priza.
 Her suggestions for the favors were as follows: Picture of his boyhood home opposite fredericksburg a pie ture of a tobacco leaf, he having had reputation as a grower of the best tobacco; picture Of hounds, Of which Washington was so fond; but ton from an old military coat with the figure 2 for his regiment, the 22d Virginia; flag he unfurIed at Cam bridge; picture of boat he crossed the Delaware in; <ENelsOn'' his favOrite horse; Whom can we trust" his ex- clamati when Arnold proved a trai- tor; the ham stolen from his dinner table by the hound Vulcan; flower baskets presented him at Trenton bridge by thirteen young women in honor of victory; notes Of Washington March, composed for his inauguration; Bastille key, presented to him by La fayette.

 Her tailored suit was of ladies cloth made with a very tight skirt. It had a long jacket which was lined with Q white brocaded silk, showing the tin jest figures in black The collar and cuffs of the jacket were of dull mOire- We went into the St. Regis for tea and when she ipped off the jacket satin tailored waist I must have looked it, for without waiting she said, White satin isn't much in harmony with old fashioned ideas Of mourn ing is it?''
 I admitted that it did seem rather a far cry from the arbitrary blackness in which the grief stricken were wont to appear. But as I saw several so- ciety women Of undoubted ''classiness'' wearing mourning of this sort, I want ed to spread the glad tidings- Of course there are no faI-IaIs allowable not even a jabot. For the satin waist must be the severest Of severe craa- tions.
 This doesn't indicate half mourning. but the whole thing" And even white shoes with a combination of dull suede are regarded as typicaIly cor rect.

What To Do And How
Good Form in the Theatre Party-Don't t Disturb the Whole Audience by a Noisy Entrance.

No matter whether your religion de- mands strict observance of Lent or not, you just are a little less gay for the sake of resting up between the win ter and summer social operations, you will find that the semt-formal lunch con followed by a theatre matinee is a diversion allowable and agreeable as well.
 At the pleasantest Iuncheons of this sort, rarely more than six are seated. The theatre box does not accommo- date mors-yithout semblance of over-croWding, and if you have orches- tra seatss a larger number lose sight of each other. It is permissible to wear hats at these luncheons, even when they are given in our homes in stead of in a public dining room.
 A light but dainty repast of the kind women always appreciate Is gener- ally served on a small round nahog- any table, it's gleaming surface not entire-y hidden by center pieces and doilies, rather than the usual table cloth of the formal dinner.
 It is not, however, of the luncheon appointments or it's etiquette that l want to chat with my women friends to-day. It is to warn them against a breach of good breeding that SC many really refined and socially cor rect make in their theatre entrance Of course we all feel friendly and light hearted after the gay little luncheon, and inclined to chatter. l unless the chattering is done when others in the theatre are trying to en- joy the play.
 The late entrance of a noisy party can so thoroughly disturb and upset many who come to ''see the show that they cannot attune themselves to any of the doings on the stage, and are therefore disappointed and cheated out of the pleasure they anticipated. Outside of the evidence of bad form in thus ostentatiously disturbing the early corners, it is dreadfulIy fncon- siderate. Some theatres will not per init those who arrive after the curtain has been rung up to take their seats until an intermission will allow them to do so without disturbing any one. This is really very good plan, if the theater goer does not personally re- are certain iron clad ethics that the really well bred woman always ob- serves in the theatre.
 First she arrives on time. When the play begins she respectfully at tends to the unfolding of the plot. She never. in penetra ting whispers, en- deavors to enlighten those about her as to what is coming next, if perhaps she has seen the play before. She re- moves her hat as soon as she takes her seat and gets fully settled. Thus she does not annoy her neighbors when they are anxious to get the drift of the first words uttered by the actors. mentS she may wish to make, are con Veyed to her friends only when the whole house is talking
 To boil it all down, she is just sim ply Iadylike, which good old fashion ed expression should apply to her con- or 'ne peanut THE HOSTESS.
