GINA OPERATORS.

Charleston, w. Va.-The Senate
committee investigating the West

ong the examination of witnesses in

tine, of New Jersey, who yesterday
lclashed with Quinn Morton, an oper-
ator on Paint Creek and the attor-
neys for the operators, became mat
ter of concern today.
The operators and lawyers declare
that MARITIME has been unfair in the
examination of witnesses and is pre-
| JUDGED in his attitude toward the op-
orators.
| A statement purporting to come
from MARITIME and reproduced in fac
simile in his hand writing by news
paper aroused considerable discus
sion. The statement said that MARITIME
would "Rather sweep a street than
earn his money as the West Virginia
coal operators do.
John A. Greene, superintendent OF
the mine where the strike broke out
first was witness and said that
guards were not placed on Paint

RED THE PROMINENT COLOR
 IN PARISIAN MILLINERY

Red enters into the scheme of great many of the Spring models. Now it is red braid sewn up with black or dark blue, two or three of each alternately; now a red brim and a black crown or vice versa. Dark straw shapes often have the brim bound top and bottom with cerise vel vet. The same system is also applied to white tagal- Shapes entirely made of any shade of bagate11e are much fancied in small sizes A small polo in medium shade of this color is simply trimmed with a big bow of white taffeta, set in front and so ar ranged that the loops are on the right and the two ends on the left. A boat shaped hat has a brin of red picot straw and the crown draped with navy blue satin, to which is attach ed new sort of aigrette, made of narrow bows of dark blue on one side and red on the other.
 Red is also found in combination with green, gray and Perenche. Green promises to be a fashionable color for straws in all the CaIviIle shades;- and also in old gold tinged decidedly with green.
 A pretty little hat, something of the po1o-shape but with the brim merely rolled over, is built of green braid of a medium depth with a fold of taga1 of a lighter shade laid round the CTOWAF W1LL1L LAe TOl10Q AL tached to the back is a large butter fly bow of very wide taffeta ribbon striped in the two. shades.
 This fashion of using straw in fold ed bands as a trimming is new. Some of the brimless hats with high crowns are encircled by a wide band of straw arranged in several plaits. one above the other. In neither case are the plaits pressed flat.
 Among the decorations in use are formal roses and rosettes made of narrow bands of raffia twisted round

FOLLOWING OLD FRENCH TRAILS

It may seem a far cry from those rough. lawless coureurs de bois to the mobile but orderly people of that val ley to-day. But after an experience of last summer the distance does not seem so great.
 Here is a journal of three days ia that valley.
 In Ibe morning Of an August day was gathering some last data from the library Of one of the greatest though one of the newest universities in the world-a two hours journey from where the coureur de bois, Jean Nicolet, in his robe of damask, first looked over the edge of the basin, a place where not many years ago saw sitting in silk academic robes learned men gathered from the ends of the earth. In the afternoon I travelled over that most famous and first of the French portages, the Fox-Wfs- consin portage, and in the evening I walked on into the night along the Wisconsin, that might see the river az the explorers saw it. At midnight I took a palace car'' with such con- veuiences as even Louis the Great did not have at Versailles, and woke we'll up the Mississippi. spent the day at another great state university and at dusk set off by the actual trails Of the French coureurs de bois eon1y by wheels instead O6 on fOOt), first through the woods and along rivers above Green bay to the Saulte Ste.

PADS AND FASHIONS

Entire dresses are made of crepe printed in small or floral patterns on light or dark grounds.
 Ratine with a woven or flet bor- der is one of the favored noveIry Ia- brics of the season.
 Printed bengaline silks, corded or plain, are much worn as trimming on spring tailored suits
 Black silk matelasse is one of the best materials for the matronly wom- ans afternoon coat.
 The broad belts-usually crushed are one of the principal features of >he new afternoon gowns.
 A great many of the new dress trimmings are of net with bright col pred embroidery in silk.
 A few Greek effects in gowns are used as an intense contrast to the present wave of orientalism.
 Dancing frocks escape the ground by two inches. Other evening gowns are made with slight trains.
 Brown with rose which has the faintest hint in it of the same color is one of the new combinations.
 The new small poke hats and bon nets turn up in the back in a way that suggests the shepherdess style.
 At present there is a fancy for painted stockings. Other new stock ings are copied from the new veil ings.

RIBBONS FOR MILLINERY TRIM

Ribbons play an important part in the summer millinery, not a. few of the larger models showing streaners and under brina. ribbon trimmings. Faille, velvet broeaded, picot- edged. moire ribbons, and those having de- signs in the high Bulgarian colorings are given equal prominence. Many of the new ribbons show a fancy bor- dered design on one side only. Alto gether the coming season is full of promise, and it is safe to say that the market has never afforded a more in teresting or attractive line than at this time.
