draperies, and many are made
with plain narrow underskirt5 of
no greater width than prevailed
last year, but the draperies and
trimmings now used completely
change the effect, though none

Pufings and Flounces
of lace or material are all greatly
employed, but are all limp and
fioppy as possible,
Sashes are very much in style
and are in many cases made of
the full width silk or satin, drawn
tight about the figure so that the
sash forms all there is of the
waist except the yoke and
sleeves. There is only one wide
end with these that falls down
the middle of the back within a
foot of the bottom of the skirt,
and has a heavy fringe as a fin

skirts, with or without a match
ing short coat, are the last word
for the luxuriously fitted summer
wardrobe and one piece dresses
of the same material are also
used. For more general wear
skirts of wash corduroy and pique
are made up on plain tailored
lines with nothing in the way of
trimming but pearl or crochet
buttons at the left front flap
where these skirts fasten.
Summer Coats.
For the long dust coat that
completely covers a dainty gown
many stylish models are shown
in rough pongee silks, serges and
the ubiquitous taffetas in plain
and changeable tints.
Some of the handsomest have
long collars and cuffs of Macrame
lace, which is admirably suited
for such trimmings. Smart wraps
of the Turkish towellings that go
under many different names are
prettiest and most practical in
ecru tints.

Fussy Frocks and Sum-
mer Coats.

The dainty fussy SUNNI r
frocks in which most women de-
light are especially pretty this
season. Pannier lines have
brought out the fowered designs
in the materials to be made up
after the new old fashion. New
because the 1912 pannier clings
closely to the figure, extends
we'll down toward the foot of the
skirt, and adds not a whit to the
expanse at the hips, so you see
it is really novelty in it's class
and likely to be much more gen.
orally becoming than the old
Vatican style.
Silk and Cotton
combinations are a feature of the
new models. Very many are half
of silk, for the under dress will
be of summer taffeta IN white,
with a narrow panel front edged
with narrow pIeated ruchings

es of the silk. Over this is drap-
ed, pannier fashion, soft null
printed in a wide border of pink
roses, waist of the same, finished
with a wide collar of white tuck
ed (mull edged) with a ruffle of
Valenciennes lace. The belt of
black ribbon velvet closed in

dered materials in floral designs

of color are a feature of such
gowns, and Such patterns come
out best over a white petticoat

On the first actual test of strength be-
tween the Roosevelt boomers and the
supporters Of President Taft for renom-
nation the Taft forces won smashing
victory. This occurred at Coalgate, Okla,
yesterday, when the republican conven-
ton Of the fourth congressional district
Endorsed Taft by vote of 11S to 30.
1t was a straightaway contest between
the Roosevelt and Taft factions and a
clear showdown. The Roosevelt people
were organized under the leadership OF
Edward Perry, chairman of the district
committee, while James A. Harris led the
administration forces.
Some Rough Rider features introduced
by the Roosevelt side failed to impress
the gathering. Before the convention

statement on the Wilson-Harvey incl
| dent which said. in part:
THE recent break between Gov. VIII
son and Col. Harvey illustrates the i'm
possibility Of cooperation between men
who look at public questions from differ
ent points of view. Col. Harvey became
a supporter of Mr.. Wilson when he was
selected as the democratic candidate for
ued his support when Gov. Wilson began
to be discussed as candidate for the
presidency. OF course, 1t Is absurd for
Col. Harvey's friends to talk about his
bringing Gov. Wilson out No man or
paper could have made Gov. Wilson
available as a candidate if he himself
had not attracted attention. 1t would
have been impossible for Col. Harvey to
have prevented a discussion. of GOV.
Wilson's availability.
at must pain Gov. Wilson to break
with his old friends, but the breaks must
necessarily come unless he turns back or
they go forward. A man is known by
the company he keeps and he cannot
keep company with those going in oppo-
site directions. Gov Wilson must pre-
pare himself for other desertions-they
will distress him, but there. is abundant

Not One Dissenting Voice.

No dissenting voice was raised while
the measure was before the Senate yes
terday afternoon, and the ease with which
it passed the upper house put smiles on
the countenances of some of those who
have known of the years of effort to
have Congress act on the universal trans
fer measure.
Shortly before O'Clock yesterday after
noon Representative Sims of Tennessee,
who has been active in the fight for uni
versal transfers in the District for years,
walked into the Senate chamber. Sen
ator Gallinger saw him, greeted him
pleasantly. and at the end of a whispered
conference both laughed heartily. Sen
ator Gallinger walked over to his desk
and in few minutes asked that the
Senate take up the universal transfer
bill There was no objection, and the
Senate fingered over it just long enough
for the clerk to read the bill and the
committee amendments and for the Vice
President to put the formal motions.

Satisfactory to Senator Works.

Senator Works had announced that he
would make a fight for the citizens con-
ference bill on the floor of the Senate, If
necessary, but the Gallinger-C Commission
ers, bill had been SO amended in the
committee as to be practically satisfac-
tory to him. So he made no attempt to
change 1t OF to press the citizens con-
ference bill.
The bill provides that within thirty
days after its passage the street rail-
ways in the District shall issue free re-
ciprocal transfers from the lines of one
company to those of another, provided
that said companies shall have the right
to stipulate that such transfers shall be
used only in continuation of a trip IN
one general direction within the District
of Columbia to prevent passengers from
travelling from one point to another and
return on one fare: and provided. further.
that the existing system of transfers en-
the lines, respectively. of the Cayital
Traction Company and the Washington
Railway and Electric Company shall be
continued and made permanent"
These provisos differ from those in the
original bill, and were framed, through
amendments recommended by the Senate
District committee, to allow the issuance
of transfer on transfer, providing
the passenger continues to ride in the
same general direction.
