On the return of Judge Whitcher 10 Globe, alter gong to Phoenx where he tried to secure a hearing for Superintendent Harper. of the state reform school efore the board of control and defended Harper at his examining trial in Tombstone, ne gave 10 the Globe Recor,f the follow ing story ct his interview with Gov ernor Hunt:
 Hunt Comments on Case"
 Harper ought to be hanged"
 ''lf l had been at the industrial school when Harper fiogged the boys would have made them strip him and lay on his back lash for every blow he struck"
 ftarp,ar doesn't deserve a square deal; he doesn't deserve anything.
 T understand they have made d foolish move at Tombstone and l am going to smother it."
 T will see to it that Harper is not given any further hearing"
 Governor Hunt was suddenly con yerted to a belief in capital punish ment, according to his own state menu when the case of A. l.. Harper, since deposed as superintendent Of the Benson Industrial School" was first brought to his attention. The governor declared that Harper ought 10 be hanged for whipping the ues. perate and armed crew of grown men, led by a self-cJnfessed burglar, who menaced the safety of Mrs. Harper when, in the absence of the super. intendent, they started a mutiny il connection with a plot to escape from the school.
 When the Harper case came tC public attention earlier in the month Judge c. F. Whitcher, attorney foI Mir Harper, went 10 Phoenix to rep. resent his client at the hearing he supposed would be held by the board of control On August 13 he called on Governor Hunt in his office and demanded that Mir. HarRar be given a full, free, open and impartial inyes. tigation. The governor not only Ie. fused to grant such a hearing but declared that the superintendent of the Industrial Schoo.' would be dis. missed and that the report Of Secre tary Osburn ml uld be adopted as the findings of the board of control
 A number of persons were seated in the outer office of the governor suite at the time Of the interview between Hunt and the lawyer and they heard the whole dialogue througt a door which the governor insisted should remain open.
 Asks for Square Deal.

Even in the lingerie, one sees the craze for disphanous, filmy effects In the exclusive shops. there are combinations and night dresses of chiffon, and null and aecordian- plaited net. Sometimes the lower part of the garment is of semitrans- parent material such as fine batiste or null. but from the waistIine up. there is nothing but the finest of lace and insertion.
 Nor does this craze stop there. The onetime sensible, practical un- dervest of gauge or Swiss ribbed ntuff, or Italian silk is masquerading in a most transparent brocaded silk gauge. that Is as sheer as a veil.
 And there are the dearest of ehif- ion and tulle underbodices like 7S52. trimmed with tueks and ribbon, and chiffon rosebuds, to be worn over the combination, and under the trans parent blouse of lace or chiffon. There is little shaping to the top of these underbodices, as the ribbon is threaded through beading to hold it in to the figure. and there must be some fulness to give a soft look. The shOuIueI StIdps are oA IloDOh
 Women there are. however, the more conservative sort, who do not accept the transparent underwear, but they do like the new crepe de chine lingerie, which is made in white, and delicate tones of blue, pink and yellow. In white 1t would be pretty fer the unGerbocice, with any color ribbon you please for trim mings. The closing is at. the back and you can have this in seven sizes, | 32 to A. For the 36-inch size l yard Se-inch material will be needed with 11-2 yards beading. and 3 1-2 yards ribbon.
 The underbodice is combined with a houfgored pecticoat f740, which
 can be made up quite plain. or as il

one side, where, after the guests had
all assembled, Miss Fulghum was es-
corted, to small arm chair, entirely
draped in lavender and twined with
w1staria- A pretty and most appro-
pirate sentiment was the manner in
which the gifts were presented. Miss
Fulghum is one of the most gifted vio-
linists in Pensacola and the box of this
instrument, which is also a favorite
with the hostess, covered with Law
ender and adorned with wistaria
blooms, was used to hold the shower
little Elizabeth Maura bringing it in
and presenting it to Miss F'ulghum
The guest of honor wore a gown
which was in exquisite harmony with
the surroundings. 1t was fashioned
of lavender crepe de chine gracefully
draped and embroidered in yioIets
With this she wore a most becoming
hat of lavender straw trimmed in
lilacs.
The lavender color scheme in the
drawing room changed to yellow and
white in the dining room where Shasta
daisies were used in profusion to bank
the mantel and buffet and adorn the
table. In the Harris home are many
exquisite pieces of decorated china,
the work of the young artist and her
distinguished kinsman, the late Will
liam Lycette, and these added mate
rally to the decorative scheme used.
The punch bowl, which has a lovely
realistic design is one of the priced
pieces in Miss Harris collection and
gold and white monogram china was
most effective with the daisies. In the
reception hail. q bright note of GRIM
son was added The archway was
festooned with garlands of wild honey
suckle and June blossoms were placed
in every available nook and corner.
The refreshments. which We're en-
joyed in the drawing room in a single
course, carried out very prettily the
lavendar color scheme there. Chicken
salad in heart shaped timbales, with
potato chips and cheese straws, heart
shaped and tied with lavender ribbon,
frozen tea and small cakes, frosted in
white and adorned with violets. were
served.
Miss Harris party was one of the
prettiest yet given for Miss Fu1ghum
and her hospitality, the gracious ex-
of a courtesy paid the friend
at which marriage she will be one of
the attendants.
