dresses of diaphanous textures, and laces,
to be lighter than the gown fabric, need
to be of cobwebby weight and sparkling
lightness.
And they are. Imagine the finest cob
web glistening with dewdrops that catch
and reflect the light in a thousand scin-
tiIlating points, and you have an examP,S
of one of the modern lace houncings for
evening gowns. One of these net dent-
founcings is made up of paillettes Of pale
blue, sewn to the net to form the back
ground, and the lscelike design is traced
by crystal beads. The demi-houneings.
which are half skirt depth, are the very
thing for the lamp shade tunics, that ar<
wired along the edge to make them stand
out, and the flouncings, half that width,
are used for the skirt ruffles.
Metal laces, too, promise to have q
great vogue, judging By the Paris impor-
tations that have arrived in New York
so far. One Of these lovely patterns looks
like nothing so much in the world as
frozen lace. The mesh of silver thread,
very open, more ike a guipure than .
tulle, has a hand run pattern of round
crystal beads.
Perhaps the most striking effect in these
metal laces are the dull metal meshes and
designs outlined by lame" Lame" is a
very brilliant glistening silver or gold
thread that looks like polished wire, but
is rs flexible as the rest of the lace, Of
course. The mesh is generally craquels

closer mesh. One lovely Callot gown has
one of these lame Iaces used as a second

Lace Flouncings for TUNES and
Ruffles.

ACES of all kinds are very fashion
able. While real laces, classic in de-
sign, will always have the respect
due them, they are at best used in small
quantities to-day, excepting by wealthy
women, for 1t would take a small fortune
to trim one of the up to date dresses with
them
Fashion, however. does not demand real
lace for the new autumn and winter
models. Laces are initiated marvelIously
to-day, even to the uneven threads. Chan
lilly demi-houncing that, genuine, would
be worth $75 yard is $3.50 in the imita-
ton. Besides, other ideas in lace have
come in vogue. Ruffles, flounces, tunics

4 EELVET certainly holds first place in
" autumn millinery, though plush and
ratine are also used. Most hats are
made over frames, even those sold un-
trimmed, and the shapes are particularly
becoming, as the head enters well into
the crown. A barrette is used to raise
the hat up to a becoming angle on the

fashionable millinery, tete de nesre brown

Evening hair ornaments are as pict-
uresque as possible, often with a bar
barrie touch that borders on the theatrical.
Little feather palms have rhinestone
stems and ornaments. Caps made of
crystal and colored wooden beads have

the ears.

like shape we are accustomed to. Fur
enters into millinery unusually early in
the season. worsted flowers, painted
flowers and some silk and velvet roses
are seen on the rather individual hats.
Though there are fewer very smaH hat
models, the average Paris hat being a
medium size, some of the very small hats
have shaped ruffles standing on their
upper brims and encircling the crown,
that makes the tiny hat look much larger.
Chin straps belong to the poke or mush-
room shapes. These look lovely with a
young, oval face, but like bonnet strings
on a square jawed woman.

BASEBALL-ALL THE
Boxing Bill Has Chance to Pass
PaIzer Latest Comeback"

In spite of the blot cast on boxing
by the PeIkey-McCarty fight there is
a fair chance for the fight bill now
before the Illinois legislature to pass.
1t has gone to third reading in the
House and is ready to be called up
for passage any time. In the Senate
action has been withheld until the
House makes move.
2 ALI of the Harrison Democrats will
support the measure, as a provision
has been put in it which the mayor
demanded, and with which he will
sanction it. Unlike the laws in other
states, the plan here is to have two
commissions to handle the sport, one
for the state and one for Chicago.
The later feature was demanded by
Mayor Harrison.
Al PaIzer, the Iowa white hope,
says he will try to come back. This
may be surprising news, as Al, in the.
opinion of many, never showed he
was there" The man who was
licked by Luther McCarty has gone
to Mt. Clemens, Mich, where he is
taking the baths in an effort to get
out of his system lot of dope" and
medicine that was fed to him to over
come malaria. In a short while he
will return to his Iowa farm, which
will be converted into a training
camp. After some preparation Palzer
is going after matches with Sam
Langford and McVey, two mighty
husky smokes in the punch-sWap-
ping line.
If Palzer is ever to amount to any
thing in the fight game he must have
the teaching of some experienced,
clever veteran who has been through
the mill Jim Corbett would be an
ideal tutor for Palzer, but Corbett is
too busy to undertake the job.

James Sanford Lavender, Cub
pitcher, is to have another chance to
make good on the West Side. Waiv-
ers have not been asked on him and
Jim says he is far from ready to quit.
Lavender has his own excuse for his
lack Of effectiveness. Frank Chance
is to blame.
This is the way Lavender explains
the situation: He says that when he
was working in the International
League he did his most deadly work
with a slow ball, using speed and
curves only when in a tight place.
According to Lavender, Chance did
not approve of the weary watt and
instructed him to put something on
the pill. ,'
Then, says Lavender, 1 had to learn
al over again. He claims he tried
his slow ball toward the end Of the
game in Muscatine Monday, and got
by with it. Therefore, he believes he
can still hang up string of victories
if allowed to use his own Judgment.
We hope Lavender is right, as he is
a Hkeable fellow, and one of the most

M'VILLE EDITOR
ACCUSES GRONEA

Neville, N. D, Feb. 24-The Journal
edited by Harry NJ. Case, makes some
sensational charges AGAINST U. S.
Sen. A. ), Gronna. The 1912 congress
sional directory showed that Senator
Gronna had two messengers credited
to. North Dakota, one of whom was
Lillian M. Gronna, at $1,440 per year,
and T. e. Metcalf, at $1,000 per year.
Miss Gronna is the daughter of the
senator. ....
The Journal says it's editor does not
know what she did to earn the $1,440,
but Editor Case insists that T. e.
Metcalf, who is editor of The Observer
at Lakota, has not been at Washing
ton and has not performed any duties
as messenger or otherwise in that
city for the $1,000 for which he was
paid by the federal government. In
addition, 1t ig claimed that Metcalf
has a clerkship in the state legisla-
ture while drawing $1,000 per year as
a messenger in Washington.
Because of the bitterness of Nell
son county politics, the exposures by
Editor Case have attracted a lot OF
attention and the supporters of Sen
ator Gronna are urging him to send
some kind Of an explanation that Will
Offset the charges made by Case.

TELLS DETAILS OF
grim TRAGEDY

Fessenden Free Press: a true story
OF the tragedy at Wellsburg, the new
station on the Great Northern north of
Manfred, was brought in last evening
IN kunkel who were called to the scene
by the circumstance of the case, and
who assisted at an inquest over the
body of the dead man yesterday.
Luther McCarty. the unfortunate vic
tim, and o. T. Jorgenson, his partner,
had a contract to paint the railway
depots and We're brought up in their
living car from Viking Wednesday
about noon. the local freight switch
ing the car off at Wellsburg. AS told
by the surviving painter, they had
been drinking all day and they were
asleep when they got to Wellsburg,
The car was locked by a combination
lock similar to those used on safes.
McCarty attempted to light or revive
he fire in the stove and being unsuc-
cessful he applied some gasoline, pour
ing it into the stove from a basin of
some kind. This failed to start the
fire so he put some more on, and a
third application not only started the
fire in the stove, but seemed to light
the entire interior of the car, which
was lined with tar paper.
Jorgenson tried to open the door,
but being confused he was unable to
work the combination, and when al
most sufocated- f. with smoke, which
was very dense from the tar paper and
gasoline fumes, he made for the end
OF the car ana barely CrdWleu out
through the hole there. McCarty tried
to get through the side door, which
had an aperture for a window, but
failed and presumably was overcome
with the smoke before he could find
the hole through which Jorgenson got
out.
The agent at the depot was on the
scene shortly after, but he nor Jorgen-
son were able to open the car quick
enough to rescue the imprisoned mar
although they were soon able to dis
tinguish his form through the flames
after the sides of the car had fallen.
His body was burned beyond recogni-
ton; in fact so badly consumed that
1t could not be recognized as a human
form; legs. arms, and head being burn
ed up and only the charred runk re-
naming.
In the absence of the coroner from
the county the nearest justice of the
peace, John Fryer, of Fran township,
conducted the inquest and S. T. Lille
mon, NJ. T. Olson and S. Severson as
coroner's jury, rendered a verdict in
above, generating Jorgenson of any
criminal intent in the matter.
J~orgenson's hair was slightly singed,
and he testified hat he and McCarty
both attempted to smother the flames
with blankets, but that the heat and
smoke was too intense.
McCarty's home is not known, though
q wire was sent to Galata, Mont.
where he and Jorgenson had worked
for some time. The remain of the
cremated man were boxed and will be
held for a few days before burial wait
ing developments as to relatives.

City n of his visit to the missionary
board to make his report. In closing
DIR. King talked of the heavenly Wis
ion that would be given to the men
who a served the Master during
their life on earth and he drew a word
picture of the heavenly home that
greatly affected the entire great
congregation. 1t was one of the great
est efforts of the two weeks mission
airy campaign in the city. AT the
close of the address Mrs. H. H.
Wheelock sang in a most pleasing
manner Just AS / Am With Out One
Plea, and after this was done many
signed the pledge cards which signi-
fed that they would give of their
substance and work for the mission
airy cause.
The Meeting of Women.
In the neighborhood of 400 women
assembled in the M. e. church yester-
day afternoon and listened to a fine
address by Mrs. Bradt, who has been
n of the big factors of the meet
ings and she spoke of the vision which
came to the women in foreign lands.
She said that under the religion Of
Confucius and Mohammed the women
were we'll nigh soulless, but that under
the religion of Jesus Christ they had
come into the light. She urged great
er activity in the work of the women's
missionary societies and gave one of
the best addresses that were heard
during the two weeks of the campaign.
Dr.. King also made a short talk to
the women at the afternoon meet
ing.

First M. e. church and his lecture
throughout was illustrated, He show
ed the horrible state of affairs that
exist in a country that is without the
teachings of the christian religion, as
well as the splendid effects that fol-
lowed after the missionaries had been
working there. He said that he was
not invited to Fargo to show h
people the beauties of the tropic couh
tries, but rather to show the state of
affairs in the countries without Christ
and he said that the people of America
owe what they have to the teaching
of christianity. The pictures showed
the manner of living In India, how
the people were huddIed into one room
and were filthy to a marked degree.
He talked Of the lives led by the
heather women and said that at n
age of IL and IA children were born
to them. If the husband dies the wife

Afternoon for Men.
At the mems meeting in the after
noon the speakers were DIR. King and
DR.. Bradt and they each gave excel
lent talks. The splendid glee club of
the Fargo college was present and
gave several selections that were
heartily appreciated. w. l.. Stock
well was the presiding officer at the
meeting and Rev. Mr.. Herman of
Moorhead made the opening prayer in
an effective manner DR.. King gave
some of the ideas he had formed from
his trip around the world and stated
that he had travelled 10000 miles and
had been in thirty two different coun-
tries and had visited over 1000 mis-
sions, He said the great conviction
that he had formed from his trip was
the need of thousands of more mis-
sionaries, and that he believed that
the greater number of these must come
from America and another conviction
was the need of the world wide mis-
sionary compaign, and he said that
religion brings all blessing to man
kind. The meeting closed with an 'ad-
dress by DIR. Bradt and he spoke of
the Kind of a Church Men Like, and
said it was the active church. He
also said that a missionary church
was always one that was pleasant to
attend. He congratulated the people
on the great success of the meetings
and spoke of the great hospitality that
had been extended to the party during
their stay in Fargo.
II. III. Wheelock who had been
chairman of the committee having
the meetings in charge made his re-
port and stated that 1t was a low esti-
mate to say that $1,000 people had
attended the meetings and he felt sure
that all had been benefited thereby
and he asked the men present to as
sist in defraying the expenses of the
meeting.
1t is believed that the meetings will
do a power of good and win be the
means of increasing the membership
of the missionary societies in all of
the churches.

Narrow Escape.

Enderlin, N. D., Feb. 24-Brake-
mann Gene Callahan had a most won
derful escape from a very serious if
not fatal accident. He vas coupling
cars at Cathay on a bridge and in
some unknown manner caught his
foot and fell to the ice eighteen feet
below. His companions rushed to his
rescue, expecting to find a badly
mangled form, but aside from a bad
cut over the right eye and n on
the nose there were no visible in
juries. He was hurried to Darlington
where he received temporary aid and
the next day brought home. After a
careful examination DR.. Labbitt re-
ported that no bones were broken.
However, Genes whole body is more
or less bruised and it will be some
time before he will be able to resume
his work. He is a most fortunate
young man that the accident result
ed no more seriously.
