NATURALLY. when the trees have
been stripped of their jackets,
il is the time to button our furs
over our little frocks. Button" Is
used advisedly, by the way, for that is
the note on many of the seasons pelt-
xies. Huge fur buttons are pushed
or pulled through buttonholes or Sits
sn scarf ends. Buttons are also used
for ornaments; the predominance Of
this model of trimming has made
itself evident in the fur field
The long coat is still very import
ant. It is in seal musquash general
". and is liked by the Parisians be-
cause OF it's practical value When
the furriers gave their initial show
ing in August they did not empha-
size the combination sets that have
taken Paris by storm within the last
few weeks. There are exquisite al
with all kinds of fur. AS a result,
fur is made to show in two pieces
a hat and scarf or a hat and muff-
instead Of one, as formerly.
Brocades, supple velvets and the
ubiquitiOus black satin are used with
beaver, ermine, seal. coney and
skunk.
Fur appears on hats also. Indeed,
the milliner is making successful use
Of odds and ends OF fur, and the for
tunate wearers are profiting by it.

cut exactly the same as the velvet.
Sew the lining and velvet separ-
ately, joining them only at the open
edges. Before joining tack a piece
of whalebone along the edge where
the flap folds over. The design is
embroidered both on the flap and the
front portion of the bag before it
is made up.
After joining the lining and velvet,
sew a row of cord all around the
edge. allowing two yards of cord to
be doubled and fastened to the flap
corners to slip the arm through when
carrying the bag. The flap is
fastened over with a fiat glove snap
A variety of materials and designs
can be used for these handy bags
Silk, satin, tapestry, cloth and velvet
are, however, the most popular
fabrics. All are embroidered or
ornamented in some artistic manner,
and the up-to-date woman will have
one to match every costume she
wears.

Old WOOL

ONT you who crochet and knit
often have odd lengths of wool
~ of various colors left over, so
small you can do nothing with them ?
Well, here is a way to get rid of them
and to make things worth while in
the bargain.
Tie the pieces together haphazard,
but keeping the same weights to-
gether- Take long needlefuls and
work in the shell stitch such articles
as hug me tights. tea cozies, cushion
covers, bed throws, etc. according to
the weight and amount of wool you
have.

HANDBAGS

FANCY handbags held by a long

are to buy a bag that matches the cos
tune: but don't let that disturb you,
for they are not hard to make if you

your black velvet suit, for example,
can be made of velvet, embroidered

The envelope bag is pretty and
easy to make. It can be made from

lining, three yards of heavy gold
cord and enough gold-colored floss

design you may fancy
First cut paper pattern 1 4 inches
long and 10 inches wide. Four
inches from one end mark a dotted
line all the way across; measure two
inches above this and mark another
Measure two inches from each
edge of the top of the paper and
draw a line to the lower edge.
Then find the center of the top edge,
and from there mark a line to each
edge of the top cross line. Now
cut along these lines, making
pointed flap and also cut along the
lines drawn from the bottom corners
to the top, and fold over on the

You have then the shape of the

Now fold the pattern over on the

 finally agreed to meet him."
 With these words in todays chap ter of his autobiography in the San Francisco Bulletin, Abraham Ruef signaliZes the momentous decision which set him upon the road to a prison cell
 Thus was l first placed in touch with Phil Crimmins," he says, who afterwards, with Martin Kelly, be- came political boss of the Republi can party in San Francisco"
 Ruef had been importuned to meet Crimmins by "Old Bill Hig- gins" whom he describes as the formidable boss of whom l had heard so much; he who controlled conventions, named and owned pub lie officers, and who, according to report, had corrupted everythine with which he came in contact" He tells of meeting Higgins after the convention at which Ruef believed he had broken the slate. Higgins quickly disillusioned him:
 "I was in the convention the other night and l admired your cour- age. I suppose you think you broke the slate, don't you?" he said.
 "I replied, It looked like it.
 Nonsense, said he. I broke it myself. l did it as personal trib- ute to you. l sent orders to change enough votes to let you win out.
 He did not see him again for two years. He visited him and consented to meet Crimmins, who was adroit and loyal, but who need ed man of education to corporate with him."

HARCOURT WAS NASTY
 so BROKE HIS WINDOW

LONDON, May 2l. - The trial at the Old Bailey sessions Of Mrs. Elm. incline Pankhurst, leader of the mil itant suffragettes, and Mir. and Mrs. Pethick Lawrence, joint editors of Votes for Women, on the charge of conspiracy and of melting their fol lowers to the malicious damage of property, will be concluded tomor- row
 The defendants occupied the time of the court today addressing the jury.
 Mrs. Pankhurst pleaded that the offense which had brought a wo- man, no longer young, into this dock," was political not criminal It was wrong, she said, to treat them as criminals. They were not act ing for selfice nor a personal ad- vantage. The government expect ed, Mrs. Pankhurst declared, to make clean sweep of the political LII diHS ol tHc "OHeU ; SOCIAL move ments by the present proceedings, but it would never be able to crush the women's movement"
 The only witness today was Dr. Ethel Smythe, who avered that the only person who had melted her to militancy was Lewis Harcourt, sec retary of state for the colonies. His remarks about the American wife and woman suffrage, the witness said, was like red flag to bull
 He said" Dr. Smythe continued, 'I should not object to women hay ing the vote if they all were as in telligent and as we'll balanced and altogether as admirable as my own wife" That is the most impudent thing I ever heard and as fatuous as if he had the pick of the basket The window I broke was Lewis Hareourts and I got two months imprisonment for that act"

SOCIETY WOMEN END FOR
 SENSATION OF DEATH

ST. PETERSBURG, May %. - Di mitri Arcybaszeff, who succeeded Maxim Gorky in popular favor. has been imprisoned for his latest book, 'Etiudy," it's glaring immortality be. ing too much for the local censor,
 All his books, of which "Sacha" is the best known outside of Rus sia, are remarkable for sympathetic treatment of sin in every possible form and conception No modern writer has raised vice to such pedestal
 The police also credit Arcy baszeff with being the founder and presi- dent of the notorious suicide league lately started in this city and now boasting of branches throughout the empire. It's members are pledged never to commit suicide for mere reasons ot love, jealousy, poverty
 
 sheer love of self-destruction and the sensation it brings.
 Members meet once a month and draw lots from silver urn which contains one blank. He or she who draws the blank must commit sui eide within twentyfour hours Prizes are given for suggestions for suicide, but shooting is tabooed as vulgar and ordinary poisons are for bidden.

morning. The Taft delegation from Texas was seated by the credentials committee, they having been left over from the all-night session for consideration today All the con tests were disposed of and the plat form committee completed its labors at 12:30.
 The committee, by a majority of one. voted down Governor Hadley's motion for the incorporation of a direct primaries plank in the Nation al platform, and after a prolonged contest decided upon a plank for the revision of the tariff downward The Roosevelt members refused to be the minority on platform
 The Taft platform will probably include several progressive blanks. as safeguard against the proposed Progressive party. For the first time since the convention opened, Mrs Theodore Roosevelt failed today to attend the convention.
 CHICAGO, June 22. The per manent organization was effected this afternoon with Elihu Root as permanent chairman. The platform was presented and adopted and con tains promises of reduction of the tariff and other concessions to the Progressiyes.
 Colonel Roosevelt issued a formal statement withdrawing from the con- vention, after perfecting plans to form new party. He advised his followers in the convention to re- main, but to refrain from voting, and ctn tnl hn them from their promises to him He declared that any man who was nominated by the present conven- tion would be the beneficiary of fraud
 Governor Johnson withdrew from the convention with Roosevelt, but at his request the California dele gation remained to carry out the Roosevelt plan of not bolting but not voting.
 PHILADELPHIA, June 22 A movement is on foot to hold Roosevelt convention in this city, at which a new political party will be born, with Theodore Roosevelt as it's leader and the candidate for the presidency. The convention will probably be held a week from next Tuesday.
 The report of the credentials com mittee, seating the Ohio contested delegates as well as 72 other Taft delegates. was adopted by the con vention last night.
 Roosevelt issued orders that his name must not be presented to the convention today. His present plans are to hold a separate convention now or after the Democratic con yention it Baltimore, and be nomin- ated on an independent ticket or by an Independent organization. A movement for the formation of the National Progressive Party was start ed today.
 CHICAGO, June P. For 3S continuous hours, the committee on credentials were in session consider ing the matter of contested seats. At the end of that time they decided to make no change in the decision Of the National committee on contests and the delegates seated for Taft maintain their seats Every dis puted delegation, save that of Texas was disposed of, and the original result was unchanged
 k. k. Mccormick, of the Illinois delegation, the lone member from Illinois, who failed to temporarily bolt the committee, has prepared charges against President Taft ill which he alleges that the Taft con tested delegations and member of the National committee formed coalition in the convention ill be- half of the contested delegates.
