HIPPODROME HAPPENINGS.

There's a new woman's club in
New York.
1t has been f1ourishing a week and
vas christened 1.-THE What Club"
The president is Mildred Flora,
one Of the prima donnas in Under
Many Flags" the current spectacle
at the New York Hippodrome. Geor-
gia Russell is financial secretary
and Lillian Robb is the regu-
lar secretary. The chairman of
the entertainment committee is
Oracle Williams and other mem
bers of this committee are Julia
CoWen, Eva Bateman, Sylvia Kraft,
Vivian Gillette, Sophie Tucker and
Tessie Morris.
Just to show that they can do
everything from voting to running
a good fellow club these girlies (all
members, of course, of the great
ballet of 1.-THE Flowers of All Ma
tions') with their fellow singers
and dancers invited all their men
friends to a beefsteak party Saturday
evening at the Yorkville Casino. 1t
was the first function of the club and
everybody present in the wee small
hours" voted 1t the best little COM
ing out party of any body Of suff-
ragists thus far produced in Goth
am village.
This from the box Office boys:
Will you give me two admissions
and two reserved seats?
The gentlemen having come from
out the undiscovered provinces"
thought the school entertainment
idea prevailed as to tickets.
He got his seats and later return
ed to the box Office for the Advance
Sale" and remarked:
"Say son, that's what l give a dol
lar for over yonder (showing the seat
checks) and it's a mile and a half
off. If l give you fifty cents more
can l get a quarter of a mile near
err"
Just one gentleman's impression
of the size Of the Hippodrome.

VALUE OF CONTRASTING COAT
Garment Makes for Real Economy In
That II VIII Serve for Many
Different Costumes.

An economy Is found in tho con-
trasting coat. The sAme skirt tailor
built and perfectly cut has been made
TO serve with three or four coats. says
the Indianapolis News.
Take the favorite black and white
stripe. for example. This may be
worn with a coat to match and by way
of change with a neat, short coat OF
black habit cloth lined with braid,
while q ssucy little Jacket Of scarlet
silk will quite transform the toilet.
The changes may be rung in the same
fashion with the ubiquitous navy
serge.
The survival of this idea is indi-
Gated in the coming evening styles,
and ono can see how In this case 1t
may be = very real economy. since 1t
often happens that an evening bodice
is unpresentahls, while the skirt Is
still In good condition Tho Idea OF a
blouse for evening wear being now
hopelessly cld-fashioned 1t Is not easy
to d much with q skirt, and yet we do
not caro- to see 1t hanging in the
cramped space OF the wardrobe. Into
this dilemma, the taneta coat intro
duces itself with complete success,
and the old evening frock becomes
faahionably transformed.

SPILL GARBAGE
ABOUT STREETS
Mayor Says Three Men
Needed on Wagons.

AS the result of numerous COM
plants about the wholesale splitting
of garbage on streets by collectors,
Acting Mayor Garretson will order
Graham and McKeon, the garbage
contractors, to make improvements.
He will probably suggest hat ar adj
ditional man, making three in all, be
placed on each wagon, thus affording
two for lifting receptacles with gar
bage and n to receive the same.
Mr.. Garretson says he has received
many complaints about garbage lit
tering streets. AS he was talking to
the reporters today a man entered
with a complaint about the same and
pointed to a quantity of ashes spilled
in front of the executives residence.
Mr.. Garretson says he believes the
trouble is that garbage has become
heavier than usual at this time by the
extensive use of coal, which makes
ashes, and he contends there should
be two instead of one man to life the
receptacles and contents aboard
wagons.
