name of Irwin HartzelI. HartzelI
rode away from his home near Lud-
low on Saturday morning about Z
O'Clock, and started for ConneIPs y
ranch. where he was to brand some
calves. Not returning in the even
ing, his wife suspected something
must be wrong. and upon inquiry
learned that he had never reached
his destination. Sunday 2came and
he had not returned. and by this
time the whole neighborhood was
aroused and parties started out in
all directions to search for him.
When found he was within forty
rods of his own house and was lying
in a"draw." over which it is thought
the horse had stumbled to its death.
The sun was streaming Upon him
and the horse was already in state
of putrefaction, being covered with
swarms of flies. Strange to say.
Mr.. Hart4ell had received no broken
bones, and the bruises on his body
do not appear to be severe. 1t is
evident that he struck upon his head,
although no wound appears, and
that rendered him unconscious, in
which condition. he had lain for
nearly four days before being found.

the physician in attendance states
that he now stands a good chance of
complete recovery.

The Hats that Men Will
Wear this Fall
BY CHARLES w. GALLOWAY.

This one Is SO arranged that the loops
stand out from the hat instead of be-
ing pressed fat.
When the time comes for the stiff
hat, some slight notifications from
the style Of last Winter will appear.
One Of these will be the hat with the
oval crown and another with a fat
ened crown, or square crown, as some
call it.
There will also be worn during the
early Fall some cloth hats. While
these may not be worn extensively,
they are looked upon by many, es-
pecially the younger element as a
between the close of the straw hat and
the felt hat seasons. Mixed goods will
be the favorites in cloth hats.
The tendency toward narrow brims
and high crowns continues, and the
lar. The curved brim will be favored
in stiff hats.
Despite the general tendency toward
the narrow brim and high crowns, q
stiff hat with dimensions Of 41Ax2 with
a wide band will be presented for the
wearer's approval this Fall.
Velours are expected to prove
highly popular this winter. Notwith-
standing predictions from time to time
that velours were loosing their place as
a popular winter hat, it is now con-
fidently asserted that they will be
fully as popular, If not more 50, than
during previous seasons. The Ameri-
can made velour is referred to
because they can be produced and sold
at q popular price with the distinctive
ly American style. They are to be
had in fourteen different cOlOrs. It is
even considered possible that as the
season advances the demand may ex-
coed the supply. They are called by
some the winter panama and make
a remarkably fine "overcoat hat"
Flat and slightly curled brims with
welt edges will prove popular shapes
in soft hats.
There will be apparent a tendency
toward the larger shapes, with high
crown and full tip, in soft hats, making
it possible for the double crease, de-
scribed In an earlier paragraph, to
have the proper effect.
The silk hat for dress wear will
taper toward the top.
In ONE parts where the weather is
severe in the Winter, caps will be
worn to some extent. In Metropolitan
centers this will be in a less degree
than In suburban localities, where their
use extends through q short season.
Larger shapes In caps. are predicted for
the Forthcoming Winter.

to the handkerchief, the better. Tbs
may be taken to indicate fairly the
trend in handkerchiefs. It is believed
that the fancy patterns will be strong
ly in use with the best dressers. Very
little jewelry will suffice to give the
mark Of the fashionable man. With
plenty Of color protruding from the
mans attire, supplied by his haber-
dashery, jeweIry is not necessary to
complete the effect. The scarf pin and
the slender watch chain suffice. Good
taste in making the combinations is
the essential thing to be lastly and
stylishly attired, and as the accessories
supply, the variety, here Is where
thoughtfulness is required, that when
the various articles Of attire are worn,
they always blend into an effect that
is pleasing,

it is said that silk hose are principally
in demand, with the finer Isle and
mercerized in second place. Some
white hose will be worn by the younger
element, who took up the fad during
the past summer. The leading gloves
will be grey, mocha and tan capes.
Suede kazan and chamois will also
be favored. Plain and embroidered
backs will rival each other and there
is apparently nc reason to believe that
either will lead. For evening wear
white silk gloves are the thing. The
one button glove continues to be the
favorite in America.
The tendency towards lighter weight
underwear has been growing for some
seasons, and it is now said to have
eliminated in the lighter stuffs being
used extensively by a large percentage
of the people. It is a peculiar fact,
yet true, that in the West and Middle
West, about $3.50 Of the men wear
union suits, while in the East just the
reverse, $3.50 wear two piece suits. The
closed O. e closed crotch is the
favorite. While lightweight under
wear may be said to be popular, the
demand for the athletic kind, to the
exclusion of other styles. The kind

sleeves Of the knitted variety, which
fits snugly, is favored by many.

plain bright colors. These in every
possible weave will be shown. An
economic condition is responsible for
this. A strike in the silk mills has
had the effect of putting plain colors
again into general use for neckwear.
The variety Of colorings will be almost
endless. The natter blue is toned to
both lighter and deeper standings.
There will be various standings of pea
Ecock blue and green, sapphire blue and
green, champagne and new peach blow.
There will also be a new shade of moss
green, toning to an olive. One Of the
most attractive new shades is between
a wine and magenta, especially adapted
to mems neckwear. One special weave
is a peau de sole, with a Luesine finish.
Another weave which Is coming to the
front Is a plain color dull satin, also
with a Luesine finish. Crepe failles

tain Of an excellent run, early this
Fall. One a be, had at prices varying
from So to $3.50 and 1t is said that a
line Is, in process of preparation that
will sell at $1.50. OF the plated varie-
ties there are some others that are sure
to be popular. One is a combination,
as a shirt with cuffs and front of
different material than the body, Is
called. This n not only has plated
front, but also plated cuffs, and the
body Is Of a French novelty in a con-
trasting color. According to some au-
thorities, stiff front shirts will again
come into vogue. IN some quarters
they have been favored and it is ex-
pected by many that this style will be
more popular as the season advances.
Worn with a vest, q stiff bosom shirt
presents a smooth, clean front that no
plated or negligee can possibly present.
Those who do not look with favor
upon the stiff front shirt will, during
the forthcoming season, cling to the
plated varieties, Of which there are
an endless array to be. had. -,
Madras and Percales are the favorite
materials. OF the better grade Madras
the French novelties are very much
sought after. Striped patterns lead.
This Is In line with the vogue for
which silk shirts Of the past season
were responsible. OF silks it may be
said that they win not be a great fac
tor this Fall, because they are essen
TALLY a summer shirt, and another;

reason Is a scarcity Of silks. The
stripes Of this Fall are even louder
than those Of past seasons, in fact, all
haberdashery Is louder. The reason
for this is that we have a somber suit
season. With men wearing the palmer
clothes, the haberdashery may be more
colorful, though not violent. Such
colors as rose, pink, hello, appear In
most showings for Fall. The small
opening in the vest permits a range of
colorings and fancy patterns which a
larger one might forbid. Gross stripes
appear in many of the patterns. Re-
verting again to the plated shirts, it
ought to be said in that connection
that in many Of these shirts made for
Fall, the plaits do not run down to
the waist or below the waist. This is
to prevent bullying when the wearer
sits down, and as he. will wear a vest,
the fact that the plaits stop a little
below half the distance from the neck
to the waist is unseen. For full dress,
the fine plaits will not be worn, though
they may be worn with perfect pro-
priety with the Tuxedo coat. With
the full dress a white pique shirt,
plated and with embroidered figures,
will, it is said, be the favorite. ~ -.

as the one which has had such a reign

Ae8s&s each one of which Will be
SzSS@aRAsFHS equally as authoritative as
the other. Several shades and colors
will appear In soft hats. Among them
will be varia tons Of greys, blues, some
browns and greens, their popularity
rating in about the order famed The
last mentioned color, which has been a
popular color, is apparently declining.
It is O peculiar fact that green In any
kind Of mems apparel has never re-
manned with us long. It's mission
seems to be that Of appearing once in
q while, adding a little novelty to the
mems apparel for a time and then al
most If not wholly disappearing.
Nevertheless, green Is not to be wholly
eliminated from the Fall lines OF the
hatmakers and from the showings Of
the hat shops. They are expected to
retain favor well into another season.
Blue Is expected to be a leader this
Fall, probably because blue is a popu-
lar suit color for the forthcoming sea-
son. Greys, pearls and mixtures are
said to be no less popular than they
have been. A new shade known as
Chine mixture, which may be described
as a pearl mixture, has put in its
appearance. This and the darker
shades Of grey will be looked upon
with great favor, both by the young
man and the man Of middle age. In
the mixed colors, the cloth, velvet and
satin finishes are called for.
On this subject Of soft felt hats, it
may be added that the telescope will
be given a different crush. Instead of
the usual telescope crush, the hat will
be creased In the center on the order
Of a fedora first. Then, to get the
proper effect, the thumb and one finger
are inserted in the center Of the crease
and separated, thus breaking the sides
outward.
The popular vogue in hat bands will
be to match the color of the hat
though there will be some grey hats
worn by good dressers with black
bands on them. It is also expected that
velvet hat bands will be popular with
the young man. These made their ap-
pearance during the past season, but
as the straw hat season interviewed,
they did not have an opportunity to bid
for favor. They look exceedingly good
and hatters are preparing for an ex-
ceptionally good business on them. The
bow in the back will be much worn
and a one which may be described
az a "full bow" has made it's appear
ance and will bid for mems approval.
