TOR evening wear. there are rib
bons with metal embroideries on
4 satin that are superb and. for
various purposes, there are taffeta rib
bons with the little picot edge that is
always pretty and attractive Velvet
plays its part and moire velvet rib
bons are shown among novelties in
Bulgarian colors and designs printed
on a background Of the uncut velvet
that is always rich and handsome.
Already there is evidence that much
ribbon will be used in millinery and
the younger contingent, at least. will
wear sashes galore. Ribbons, too. can
be most effectively used for trimmings.
for the little waistcoats and for bands
and panels.
As yet, coats that are such in
fact as well as n name are those
Of greater interest. 1t will be neces-
sary for really warm weather to
approach before the tiny little jackets
that extend only to the waist line
will take any definite place but the
sharply cut away, one-button coats
that give the Napoleon suggestion
are exceedingly handsome and will
be extensively used for spring trous-
seau and the making up of advance
spring suits. Russian blouses also
continue all their favor and are essen
tally practical as well as fashionable
garments. Frequently. they are made
of material in contrast to the gown or
skirt and. often when the lattrr is
quiet in tone. some Of the lowered.
brocaded or other richly eolored fab
rics are used.

MO one of the pretty Easter Gus
~ toms appeals more keenly to
us than the showing of beau
tiful flowers in the open parks, and, in
spite of the early date, we look for
potted blooms in all their splendor and
perfection. The costumes to be worn
to the display are sure TO take a
variety of forms, but coat suits AMI
street dresses are conspicuous favorites
Undoubtedly, they will appear in silk
and wool in equal numbers, but some
Of the most striking shown combine
plain silk with mofre and brocaded silk
with broadcloth.
Never have we known a more Won
derful showing Of color in costumes
and trimming, and, for the early sea-
ION at least, the beautiful Nell ros,
nay be looked for as relief for cos
tunes of darker colors, while favorite
tones for street wear will include blue
in its infinite variety. the lovely wis
taria shade, a peculiar gray known as
sand, mustard at its best and the rich
copper and Besnard red, too, that ar.
always superb touched with black.
Black and white combinations will
be fashionable, and a great many
black suits will be worn with trim
ming Of Persian or Bulgarian silk to
Iive the note Of lighter color and
pring brightness

thar the simple one in refer style. For
the boys suits are used galatea and
linen, white and blue. and French
eingham of blue with collar and cuffs Of
white for the really warm days; the
sailors own serge, either in white or
blue, for the cooler ones Goats for
little girls are made from serge and
from broadcloth, from eponge and
from cheviot, from whipcord and from
heavy ribbed silk. and all these ma
terials are as attractive as they are
fashionable.
n TANY Of the new silks and rib
V bons are woven in Bulgarian
Ava colors even when the design
does not distinctly belong to Bulgaria.
A most effective little top coat to be
slipped on over any gown is made
of dark blue serge with lining Of one
of these silks that is soft and pliable
as can be. The coat is Of the sort that
is turned over to form the collar and
just that little bit of brightness on the.
blue ground is charming. Ribbons arc
expected to play a really important
part in spring fashions New ones
give evidence Of almost every i'm
portant movement that the last few
months have brought forth. There are
ribbons in Cubist designs making their
bow the latest arc craze and there are
ribbons in wonderfully subtle Oriental
effects. There are ribbons showing
figures Of velvet brocaded upon soft
satin. There are ribbons that show
genuine Jouy patterns in lovely faded
tones. There are Roman ribbons and
Scotch ribbons and there are won
derful Pompadour ribbons that are
real Joy.

Y YOUNG girls will wear a great
many dresses made with sim
= pie blouses and skirts that give
the tunic suggestion. The one illus
trated is made of charmeuse satin with
collar Of MORE and frills of lace. 1t is
exceedingly handsome in an altogether
youthful way and, az little chemisette
always can be added when the low
neck is not becoming. it is very gen
orally useful. A rather different effect
could be produced in the same model
by making the skirt under and below
the trimming portion Of one material
with the upper portion Of the skirt
and the blouse Of another. Crepe de
Chine would be pretty over satin. or
embroidered or figured material over
plain; or, a very up-to-date dress
could be made by using charmeuse or
crepe de Chine in a quiet tone, such as
mole, and making the collar Of the Bull
garian silk that is so much liked for
touches.
livery variation Of the cutaway
effect is fashionable for the
- spring. The serge suit illus
trated shows an exceedingly smart
coat with very new and distinctive
skirt. This skirt is made with front
and back panels that are extended to
make the lower portions and with side
portions that lap onto the lower por-
tion, so giving the over skirt idea,
while there is very little material and
very little weight The coat with its
little vest is most attractive. In the
illustration. this vest is made to match
the revers but it would be quite as
smart made from one Of the Oriental
silks. while such treatment always
adds touch of. bright color.

NOTWITHSTANDING the fact

A NOTWITHSTANDING the fact
M that Easter comes extremely
l early this year. it marks the
opening Of the spring season and
while we may not be able to welcome
the day with fresh toilettes, they will
be in demand very shortly thereafter
and just such designs as the ones
illustrated will be needed. The season
is one of infinite charm and infinite
variety. The coat suit. which is an
absolute necessity, will take many
interesting forms and what is known
as the street dress will be extensively
worn. Fabrics are mostly of silk,
cotton and mixtures of silk and WOOL
All wool, for the nonce, takes second
place. Everything that has a crepe
finish. moire effects, ratine or eponge,
and soft dull finished satins are all in
the height of style. Poplins are to
be much worn. Bedford cord is exceed
ingly smart and serge weaves are found
in silks as well as the wool that must
be used for every day occasions
The Washington herald., 1913-03-16

COMBINATIONS Of materials are
to be noted upon a great many
of the handsomest costumes
displayed. Satin with moire is especi-
ally well liked and the coat and skirt
illustrated seem peculiarly well adapted
thereto. The Empire line Of the coat
and the three-quarter sleeves are i'm
portant and smart features and the.
skirt that gives a tunic effect by
means of trimming is important. The
same costume would be handsome in
Bedford cord with satin. or in eponge
with any plain finished fabric.

OVERLOADED BILL DOOMED
Public Building Measure Too Big by
Millions.

The omnibus public buildings bill,
passed by the house and carrying a
total of almost s26,OO0,OOO, was report
ed to the United States senate.
A total of S20,O00,000 has been added
by the senate committee, making an
appropriation bill of nearly SS6,000,-
900. Its ultimate fate is problematical,
although some house Democrats go so
far as to say that the measure will
never become a law.
While few hold to the belief that
the conference of the two houses will
be able to reach an agreement the
majority expect it to fail and point out
that President Taft will veto it on the
grounds of extravaganza.
OF the additions made by the SEN
ate committee a total of 100000 is
for the states OF Pennsylvania, Ohio
and West Virginia, distributed as fol-
lows:
Postoffices at Ridgway, Pa, $4,000;
Phoenixville, Pa, $4,000; State Col
lege, Pa, SIS, 900; addition to the post
office at Cory, Pa, $4,000; building
at Ashland o., 100000; Sandu7ky, o.,
$15O,OOO; additions at Dephos, o.,
$1,000; Martinsburg, W. Va, $4,000;
Hagerstown, Md, 100000, and Hunt
ington, w. Va, $l50000.

by bullets. Each of the prisoners
was hit by many bullets.
After Cardenas had taken the bodies
to the penitentiary he returned to the
palace and informed President Huerta
as to what had happened. The presi-
dent directed his chief of staff to send
for the cabinet ministers. The presi-
dent and the cabinet conferred and
then the newspaper men were sum-
moned to the palace. This was two
hours and half after the murder.
1t is whispered about the capital
that the execution of Madero and Of
Suarez had been determined upon by
the Huerta government because of the
belief that the country could never be
pacified with Madero alive. Many peo-
pie expect that the government will
punish Major Cardenas and his men
in order to express official disapproval
and to appease public dissatisfaction.
1t is insistently rumored that Ma
dero's guards had orders to shoot him
and Suarez before arriving at the
penitentiary.

WALKSFOR HOURS ONSTUMPS
Victim Of Accident Found In Snow
With Feet Cut OF.

Walking erect at times on the bleed
ing and mangled stumps of his legs
and at other times era Wing around in
the snow, Adam Lyons, aged thirty
seven, of McGees Mills, near Punxsu-
tawney, Pa, endured nine hours
OF frightful suffering after being hit
by a freight train. Both OF Lyons
legs were cut off about three inches
above the ankles.
When found by a section crew
Lyons was standing erect on his
stumps, mumbling an incoherent plea
for help and for water to quench his
thirst. He was found more than 200
yards from the spot where he had
been struck by the train. According to
several members of the section crew
the injured man must have been
moving around all night, as the snow
was covered with trails of blood and
had been tramped down over con-
siderable area.

CONSERVATISM PREVAILS
Dun's Review Finds, However, That
Business Distribution Is Liberal.

Dun's Review Finds, However, That
Business Distribution Is Liberal.
Dun's Review OF Trade says this
week:
"in volume of distribution business
continues on a very liberal scale, al
though the spirit of conservatism
which has characterized the situation
for so long a time still continues.
While there is a notable absence Of
speculative activity, the principal
trades and industries show steady
expansion as compared with the cor
responding period a year ago, although
in certain lines and especially in
some localities, there has been lately
some slowing down in the business
advance
The heavy railroad purchases Of
equipment continue to constitute the
chief feature of the iron and steel in
dustry."

SEVEN MEN SENT TO DEATH
Rope Breaks and Cars on Incline
Track Topple over.

Seven men were killed and nine
others injured seriously when rope
holding a train of cars on an incline
at the Derry pa works of the Amer
ican Window Glass company parted
and the cars rolled off the track.
There were FIVE cars in the train and
about forty men seated in the cars
when the train left the quarry to go to
the stone crusher, mile and half
distant. The cars are held by rope.
The first car jumped from the track
and was followed by the other cars
and their human freight. The train
ald the men were piled in a mass, 1t

Assasslnations Shock Washington.

Official Washington was most deep
ly shocked to hear of the killing of
Francisco Madero and Pine Suarez,
deposed president and vice president
of Mexico, in the streets in Mexico
City
The word came from President Taft,
however, that the Staying of Madero
and Suarez, deplorable as the admin
istration regarded it, afforded no
basis for any change in the attitude
of the United States regarding the
Mexican situation.
Although the United States govern
ment had expressed to the Huerta
government in Mexico its earnest hope
that Madero would not be executed by
any summary or illegal process, this
expression OF views was not made in
the form of a demand for the preserya-
tion of Madero's life.
That the Mexican government will
be severely censured by public opin-
ion in the United States for permitting
MdueIO " Dt hlllcu NIllO q PlloOhOii ,
even though itself not in plot for his
death, was predicted Just as the ex-
ecution of GustaYos Madero alienated
from the new goTernmentpih Mexico
much of the sympathy which it had
enjoyed in Washington, so the killing
of Madero and Suarez, 1t is declared,
will lower Mexico even further in the
opinion of the United States.
1t is recognized that it is no real
concern of the United States what
Mexico does with her public men and
that the killing of Madero does not
Justify the adoption of any strong
measures by the United States, yet
on the other hand it is believed his
death will do much to prepare public
opinion for Intervention in Mexican
affairs at some future time.

OFFERED BR|bE
TO FREE THAW
katteaWan Superintendent Says
He Turned Down $4,000
AYERS LAWYER TEMPTED HIM
Or. Russell Thinks John Anhut is
Name of Man Who Approached Him.
Startling Story Told at Inquiry.

bribe of $4,000 to release Harry
X. Thaw from the Matteawan State
Hospital For the Insane was offered
to DR.. j. X. Russell, superintendent
of the institution, last November ac-
cording to his own testimony before
the 5ulzer committee OF inquiry hold
ing hearings in Albany, n. Y.
This was the result of a charge that
w. F. Clark, friend of Governor Sui
2er and secretary OF the probe COM
mittee, had tried to influence Dr. Rus
sell and DR.. James May, the president
OF the state hospital commission, TO
give Harry Thaw his freedom
Thaw can only be released upon
supreme court order or through GER
titicate signed by DR., Russell that he
has recovered his mental balance. 1t
is this certificate Of recovery which
DR.. Russell said an attempt was made
to bribe him to give.
DR.. Russell stated that in an up
town hotel the offer by a lawyer Of
500 900 to release Thaw was made. He
could not recall the name of the hotel.
The offer was made last November
after the last attempt to release Thaw
proved unsuccessful. Later he said
he thought" the man who attempted
to bribe him was named John Anhut.
Asked how he had known this law
yer, Dr. Russell said he had met him
before at White Plains, where he sat
near Thaw during the hearing. He
asserted that he did not accept the
money from the lawyer.
DR.. James May, president OF the
hospital commission, corroborated in
detail the testimony OF DR.. Russell.
He said Secretary Clark had informed
him that Governor Sulzer was desirous
of having Thaw discharged.
w. F. Clark vehemently denied the
assertions OF DR.. Russell and pointed
out to the committee that he had gone
to Matteawan in the capacity of a
newspaperman eager to get the facts
of the story of attempted bribery.
John H. Delaney, one of the mem
bers of the probe committee, and Mr..
Clark stated that Jewish lawyer OF
New York had $25,OOO to give DR.. Rus
sell and that $4,000 had been giveY
to DR.. Russell on condition that Thaw
would be released before the end OF
December last.
The story goes on that when Cover.
nor Sulzer assumed office in January
Thaw had not been released and that
DR.. Russell returned $1,000 to the
Thaws through Detective Hoffman OF
Poughkeepsie, according to Mr., Clark.
