THE NEW YOKE.

One Of the most important parts
of woman's gown is the net yoke
or guimpe. -et few women are able
to make net yoke fit and set prop
erly. Women DO not realize. either,
that styles change in materials for
Jokes and undersleeves just as they
do in fabrics for dresses.
This season fine white cotton net,
silk net, point d'esprit. shadow net. and
tucked chiffon are the accepted materi-
ais for this purpose.

wedding Announcements.

Observation-Disclosures cards need
no acknowledgment, though carefully
courteous persons leave cards. or call on
the brides parents within two weeks
after receiving the formal notification Of
the marriage. Not infrequentiy the
friends OF the newly welded pair answer
an announcement card by brief note OF
congratulation addressed to the bride or
bridegroom. This can be done when the
friend lives at a distance from the scene
of the marriage.

Irish Lace Motifs.

AIice-The Irish lace motifs may be
made Into medallions. These Irish lace
medaIlions are used very much as a
waist decoration, and are generally in
combination with some hand en-
broidery.
The motifs are stitched 70 any firm
foundation. gtin linen or camb-ice VIII
do, and the shape OF the medallion Is
marked on the cambria with a rsncl.
FIJI in around the motif with any
crochet ground. and finish the edges with
crocheted scallop.
The medallions are placed on the waist.
one in the center front, one on either
Side. and a little above the csnter me-
dallion. A smaller one Is placed on each
sleeve.
II you cannot make the crocheted
ground. use coarse net as the back
ground for the motifs.
A little vine design may be drawn
around the medallions and embroidered
in satin stitch. or the medallions alone
will be sufficient decoration.
Fine white linen or null is the best
material to use for this kind Of waist.

Two Bandits Are Captured.

Craig-Dynamite was used in the
capture of two notorious outlaws who
have terroriZed three counties in Colo
rado and Wyoming for more than a
week, and have stolen scores of horses
belonging TO ranchers. Wounded al
most TO death, the men held out for
seven hours in a mountain cabin, fcrty
miles northeast OF here, and defied a
posse of forty men, led by three sher-
IFS, until they were told that unless
they surrendered they would be blown
to atoms by dynamite. which had been
gmuggled under the foundation of the
building. The outlaws were within
striking distance OF timber, and when
they saw the fuse of the dynamite
sticks they made a dash for the trees
and liberty, but were intercepted by
members of the posse.

Washington.-Au attempt was made
on the life OF President Taft when
someone sent to the White House an
internal machine addressed 10 the
chief executive. Had the machine gone
of, probably everyone in the office OF
the secretary to the President would
have been killed. AS it was, Sherman
Allen, the assistant secretary, was
hurt, and he only slightly. He re-
ce!ved a burn en- the hand when he
smothered the burning fuse which
greeted him when he opened the box
containing the machine,
Secret Service men were promptly
notified of the affair and the machine
turned over TO them for examination
When they had finished they reported
that the machine contained six pounds
Of highly explosive dynamite. power
ful enough to have destroyed the exec
utive offices.
There is little chance OF such an at
tempt on the life OF the chief eXecu-
tive proving successful. for PresdeT-.
Taft never opens any of his mail or
express packages, every one OF them
passing through the hands OF one or
two secretaries.
Sherman Allen found the package
containing the Internal machine on his
desk when he reached the White
House Wednesday morning. When he
opened it and saw a burning fuse he
was quick to act, smothering the fuse
with his bare hand. As a consequence
he received a slight burn, but saved
his life and that of all his fellow
workers.
The matter was quickly hushed up,
only few persons knowing anything
about it. The Secret Service will at
once begin an investigation with
view to finding out who sent the ma
chine
This is not the first time an attempt
has been made on the life of the Pres
dent by means of an Internal machine,
but it is the first time one has come so
near going off in the office OF the
President.
Just how the Internal machine got
into the desk of Assistant Secretary
Allen, whose duty it is 10 open all mail,
has not yet been determined. All that
Allen knows is that he found the
small neat-looking package addressed
TO the President of the United States.
on his desk; that he never for mo-
ment thought Of the possibility that
there was anything wrong with it, and
that he opened it as he does all other
mail.
After removing the outer wrapper
he found a small box with sliding
cover This he slid back only to re.
veal fuse which had been ignited
by the movement Of the cover. Quick
er than the thought, he grasped the
fuse and jerked it cut, at the same
time smotheriug the fire in the palm
OF his hand
