against Ordinary A. " Simms, Of this
county. for $4,000 forfeiture. The or
binary in return threatens to institute

bition law who was represented by
Colonel Morgan. The man was con-
victed of the charge. and is now sery-
ing his sentence on the county chain

merit in it.
On account Of the ordinarys failure
to do so. Mr. Morgan has entered suit

ployed an attorney to fight the suit

Fashionable Women Wearing
Hats, Stockings and Even
Shoes of That Material.

The latest sartorial surprise in Paris
is the lace sheath skirt with Turkish
trousers.
One of Americas largest lace import
ers has just returned from an extended
tour of continental fashion centers
with $4,000 worth of Bohemian lace.
Lace will be the dominant mate
rial for the attire of fashionable women
next season" he said THE French
resorts are filled with women wearing
gowns of that material. and in some
cases the fad has become so popular
that it is by no means an uncommon
sight to see women attired in lace
stockings, shoes made of lace uppers'
lace hats and lace gowns
"Pannier skirts. still the mode, as
well as the new pleated skirts, are be-
ing manufactured entirely of lace, and
the sheath skirt, that some modtstes
said would not live another season, Is
stlll in demand. The effect when 1t is
made of lace is startling. Lace stock
ings in countless colors are also fash
ionable. and 1 think will be liked in
America, although l would not care to
predict the reception lace shoes will
receive here.
bohemian made lace is in great de-
mand so much so that l brought with
me all ! could get. as i was afraid
many orders given would never be
filed. English laces have taken back
seat in the fashionable world at pres
ent and the Nottingham makers are
forced to initiate continental laces.
Irish lace is not in demand"

Moose Convention
To Be Held Secretly

CHICAGO, July 27-The first ward
conventions to name delegates to the
third party state convention in Illinois
will be held in Cook county tonight
The meetings will be semi secret. In
stead of publishing a list of the places
where the conventions will be held, a
list of men who will know where they
are to be held some time before they
are actually called to order was given
out today The reason for the secrecy
according to leaders Of the new party,
is the fear that ward politicians allied
with Governor Deneen and the regular
Republican machine would pack the
gatherings and name delegates who
would start trouble when the new state
convention endeavors to proceed with
the nomination of a third state ticket

broke into the bedroom and opened lire.

man, was in bed. The men fired as
struck him. Then the men fled

that the men were not burglars. They
believe that they were assassins. and
that the shooting was a deliberate at
tempt to annihilate the entire family

INCOME TAX BILL
IS PASSED BY
SENATE
Measure, Nearly Same as
Passed House, Will Soon Be
Up to President Taft.

WASHINGTON, July 27-The SEN
ate Yesterday passed the excise bill.
This is in reality an income tax bill,
Ievying tax of one per cent a year on
the incomes in excess of $4,000 on all
corporations and persons.
Attached to this bill were two riders
one repeating the Canadian reciproc-
itv act, the other establishing a tariff
commission.
These amendments carry the entire
bill back to the house, which had all
ready passed the main measure. 1t is
expected that the house will accept the
two amendments, and thus send the
measure to the president for his sigma
ture.
Thus congress is nearer establishing
a real income tax than it has been
since the supreme court in 1893 held
such a measure to be unconstitutional
The senate's vote on the measure
yesterday was decisive. 81 to 49, Pas
sage of the bill was made possible by
a coalition of the Democratic and the
progressive Republican senators.

Hoke Smith Leads
Fight for Measure.

The fight for the measure was led by
Senator Hoke Smith, of Georgia. who
opened the debate with two-hour
speech. He stated that he personally
favored a straight personal income tax,
and was supported in his opinion by
the fact that "a states have already
adopted the amendment to the consti-
tuition of the United States authorizing
congress to lay such a tax. But he
said the Democrats generally believed
it to be safer to accomplish the same
result by merely extending the exist
ing corporation income tax to individ-
uals
Under the provisions of this measure
the man with an income of $4,000 a
year, or less, is exempt from taxation
Those whose yearly net income ex-
ceeds $4,000 must pay one per cent on
the amount in excess of that sum- For
instance, if John Doe enjoys an in
come Of $500 a year, his tax paid to
the Federal government would be $25
one per cent OF the excess over So, 600
If John D. Rockefeller's income is S25.-
100000 as has been estimated, his tax
would be $249,950.
1t has been computed that the bill
passed by the senate yesterday will
raise an annual revenue of $50 100000.
