Bronx, appealed tearfully to Magis-
trate Murphy in the Morrisania court

DAINTY COSTUME MUCH LIKED
Worthily Engaged Attention of
Fashionable Women.

The little wrap known as the man

an enthusiasm not surprising when the
beauty of the models is seen. They
are combinations of lovely line and
color and in the supple MORE, benga-
line, silk tapestries and brocades they
give decided decorative note to an
afternoon or evening costume.
The short bolero with a position
back is one Of the favorites, although
longer mantelets give more protection
and for that reason should appeal to
women who desire utility as we'll as
beauty.

SUMMER HATS LARGE
SMALL HEApoEAR NOT TO BE A
FEATURE OF SEASON.
Advance Designs Shown Are Pictur-
esque In the Extreme-Flat Trim
ming Is to Be the Prevailing
Rule for Coming Fashions.

Now that the milliners are begin
ming to show their befiowered ana
;acy midsummer models, the woman
who feared that the vogue Tor the
small headgear of spring would be
carried over into the summer, hnds
that such is not to be the case. me
midsummer hats are large, gracerul
and picturesque, to accompany the
prevailing styles in summer frocks'
Stiff brims are not factor IN the
newest designs. On the contrary, the
more flexible, even fioppy, the brlm OF
the midsummer hat, the more VIII II

brim should droop at the front ana
back, rather than at the sides. Inc
wide-brimmed models, fatty trimmed
with their low crowns enclrcled Dy
flower wreaths, are reminiscent or the
quaint hats worn by the grandmoth-
ers of this generation in their girl
hood days.
Flat trimming is the rule on large
hats. Grace, rather than audaclty,
seems to be the ideal of the modlsh
milliner and, therefore, one sees
fewer of the outstanding Numidie and
aigrette trimmings so popular this
spring. They are replaced by flow
ers. plated tulle, swathed lace and
softly knotted ribbon, the traditional
adornment Of the midsummer nat.
Roses have come into their own
again and the big, rose wreathed hat
Is evidently going to be feature OF
the summer. A charming model OF
this sort has been sent over from
Paris to add it's quota of grace to

Of fine black hemp, with rather low

Fate of klaine Fisherman Who

of that October afternoon"
1t was Frank Oleson, a fisherman
of Rockland, Ne, who spoke. He
was telling a little group of oilskin
clad fishermen about tragedy of 1885
when he and Charlie Freeman sailed
out of Tenants Harbor, Me-, one Oc-
tober morning Oleson brought the lit
tie sloop Alpine back the next morn
ing alone. Freeman mad fallen over
board in the midst of school OF dog
fish, which had eaten him alive be-
fore the eyes of his helpless compan-
panion.
They were bound for the fishing
grounds of Martinicus island. Freeman
had taken along a shotgun. When
five miles from Criehaven a bunch
of coots. flying low, came skimming
along Freeman fired into them, and
three or four dropped. The Alpine was
brought up into the wind, and with her
mainsail and jib Tapping the gunner
jumped into the dory and started to
pick up his game.
There was shout, a splash, and
Freeman was struggling in the water
In reaching over the side of the dory
he had lost his balance and fallen into
the choppy sea. In moment the hun
CRY, sharkish dogs were after him.
The opening paragraph tells all there
is to tell
Many stories are related to show
the ferocity of the dogfish. 1t was not
more than a dozen years ago that two
New York yachtsmen we're lolling
along in a sloop yacht in Penobscot
bay one July afternoon. One of the
yachtsman, a physician named Bow
ker, decided to take a plunge. He
stripped and dived off the bow of the
sloop, intending to pull himself into
the tender trailing behind as it passed
him. He had scarcely hit the water
before he let out a yell. He just
managed to catch the gunwale of the
rowboat when his companion reach
ed him and hauled him in. Three ugly
wounds showed in his legs where the
voracious dogfish had bitten out
Chunks. He was taken into Rockland
where a physician treated him for
several weeks before he was out of
danger.
That the determination or at least
the thinning out of the dogfish is prac-
ticable has been demonstrated Thirty
five years ago the old Gloucester
schooner Water Lily. according to
Fred Lewis of Portland, who was a
member of the, crew, sailed from the
Massachusetts port in command of
Capt. George E. Robinson on an ex-
perimental trip.
The Water Lily proceeded to Kettle
Bottom, about Is miles of Orr's Island.
On the first day the high line dory
from a. m to 8 p. m. had caught
1900 dogfsh. From the total dogfish
catch on the first day 2S5 buckets of

Lining for Transparent Waists.

The ways in which color is com
bined with white in waists and lin
gerie frocks are endless and generally
most attractive. Cheruit is to be
thanked for giving us the fesh-col-
ored net lining Of transparent waists.
This faint undertone of rose is very
alluring. One finds it not only in
the thin waists, but also in wraps and
blouses of exceedingly soft white
satin. These are lined with warm
tone OF pink chiffon, which shows
through the folds of the satin In a
delicate flush which is indescribably
lovely.

VARIED STYLES AND SHAPES
Display of Buttons Is Such That the
Most Fastidious May Have Wide
Choice of Selection.

BrilIiancy marks the display of but
tons in the shops, and the shapes and
styles displayed are many.
The Roman pearl buttons are ap-
propriate trimming for the blouse OF
soft satin finished materials, as are
those of baroque pearl with rhine
stone centers. Many new buttons are
odd in shape, and those having black
backing are very snowy. Amber is
used combined with both pearls and
rhinestones, and both these combina-
tions and red buttons, of which there
are so many varieties seen, look well
on the shepherd checks and plain ma
terials
All sorts of fabric buttons are being
used, even the old-fashioned serge
covered buttons. There is demand
for the button covered with hand
made lace for use on lingerie gowns.
The buttons are practical as well as
dainty, for they are washable. They
are made over bone foundations, an
improvement over the wooden molds
formerly used. Buttons crocheted
with a novel knot stitch save a bright
floral decoration in the center. Upon
the suit of eponge weave self-covered
buttons will be much used. Pretty
touch is given to the darker suitings
by attaching the buttons of crystal
or bone with heavy silk floss of some
bright color.
