City Council May Not Take Sum-
mer Recess-Meeting Called
for Tomorrow.

Alexandria. Va. July 21.-Judging
from present Indications, 1t looks as
IL Alexandria's City Council will break
all precedents this summer by not TAX
ing a recess.
Another meeting of that body will be
held next Tuesday night, and. judging
| from the volume of important business
which will come before the city IA
theirs. II would look as II there is suf-
ficient business to warrant a continu-
ance during August. In former years
an adjournment was usually taken in
July.
At the meeting Tuesday night the
new set of health laws again will come
up for consideration before the lower
board. 1t is expected. The laws were
only recently amended by a conference
committee. which is expected to make
its report.
The street committee will also re-
port favoring the use of asphalt blocks
for the Improvement Of four squares
in Washington Street between Queen
and Duke Streets, instead of vitrifed
brick.
City Councilman Marshall will ask
the council to regulate the salary OF
Col Theodore H. Ficklin. principal OF
Washington Public School for Boys.
The city school board recently reduced
the salary of Col. Ficklin from 1880
to $1,000 a year.
During the present week City Auditor
E F. Price will furnish the Police De-
partment with a list of those who have
paid dog licenses. The list contains only
$50 names against $40 last year. which
is regarded as a big decrease. in view Of
the fact that 1t is pointed on that there
are fully 1000 dogs in the city.
Within a short time after the list is
in the hands of the police the latter will
begin a crusade against the owners of
all unlicensed dogs, and those who have
failed to pay the required license of $3.50
will be cited into court. and a fine i'm
posed in accordance with the law. The
time limit for taking out licenses eX-
pired July !.
The police during August will have the
dog wagon placed on the street. and all
stray CANNES will be gathered in and
carried to the city pound.
The Emerson Steam Pump Company.
whose plant is located in Fairfax County.

War Fought Over Money.
Litigation over the fortune. which rep
resents the estate of Paul Wertz, has
lasted for 80 years without result Wars
have been fought over It between Hol-
land and Germany. and several times war
has been averted by a compromise. The
three nations. Austria, Germany and Hol-
land. have formed a money alliance
and will be represented by their ablest
lawyers in the fight against the Chicago
woman and her lawyers.
Paul Wertz received the fortune

No Settlement Reached.
Five lawsuits have been started at
various times by heirs of Paul Wertz
to recover. but so numerous were the
heirs in America and Germany that no
settlement was reached.
Then the wertz Family Association Of
America was formed. DR.. Won Velsen,
an heir. a jurist OF Dusseldorf. Germany.
was retained to fight the case.
The last suit was tried in 1872, and
failed because the place of the death
Of Paul Wertz had not been proved. 1t

LACE FRILLING FOR ,
THE PICTURE HAT
May Be Used with Picturesque
Effect.

A picturesque method of trimming a
large leghorn picture hat Is by using
soft taffeta or lace frilling and equally
soft ribbon.
FrilIing can be bought by the yard.
and that used on hat should be two
inches wide, killed to very narrow
banding.
Sew one row of the frilling to the
under edge of the brim, using a tiny
stitch underneath and a very tiny stitch
to catch II to the straw.
These stitches may be concealed by
using the slip stitch. passing the needle
through the banding iengthwise and
then running II in a slanung manner
through the straw.
Make a fat rosette OF frtlling by
whipping II on to the edges Of a circle
OF buckram. three inches in diameter,
and then gathering another strip so il
will form a circle and attach 1t to the
center of the buckram foundation.
To Conceal stitches.
To conceal your stitches here you can
sew on some beads or a pretty crystal
button directly in the center.
A crownband of ribbon matching the
frilling. II IL be of silk, or of some
dainty light shade. II you are using lace
frilling. is folded around the crown and
over the joining point the rosette is
sewed. This may be placed on the side.
but Is usually more becoming when
placed in the center OF the front. where
it balances the hat better.
Rose pink frills or pale green are
pretty on a cream-coiored leghorn hat.
Any of the delicate shades of violet or
blue are good; but when choosing these
shades take care that they suit your
complexion or the good effect will be
lost. as the frilling on the edge comes
very close to the face.
Point d'esprit with a narrow lace edge
is charming for this purpose. and the
new shadow lsces look extremely we'll
This makes a simple pretty picture hat
that can be worn with almost any gown.

When Pressing,

II you desire to press dress trimmed
with buttons or a placket fastened with
hooks and eyes, this suggestion may help
you.
Place a heavy bath towel. folded sew
eral times, upon the ironing board.
Arrange your dress. buttons down, and
over it place a damp cloth.
Iron over this and you will not be able
to detect marks or smooth. glossy spots
caused by the buttons.

Using Old Bedspreads.

The sides and end OF a bedspread otter
become worn and frayed, while the center
remains perfectly good. A splendid idea
is to cut the center part up into bath
towels for the children. who will find
them much softer than the usual Turkish
towel Use Turkish towel as a pattern
for the size in cutting. and then hem the
sides and ends by hand, as the material
will be too clumsy for the machine.
