SERGE A GOOD MATERIAL

Almost all Of the new styles are de-
veloped in serge, and not only in the
good old standby navy blue, but in brown,
white and pretty red tone. The all
white serge suits are appropriate for
dancing school and have the advantage
of being wearable during the summer.

This does not necessarily infer that

All Of the much talked about styles
of the winter were represented at the
horse show by some social authority
the minaret tunc sticking boldly out
like lampshade, the jaunty zouave
Jacket, which hovers between n bolero
and an Eton, the peg top skirts. the
dyed furs and the saucy turbans with
farng mounts. The furs were sumptu-
Gus in the extreme. Probably the most
costly garment was the Russian sable
coat worn by Mrs Alfred Vanderbilt.

one of the new fioppy sailor shapes.

NO coRSETS OR HATS FOR
THIS SUFFRAGETTE
Washington, March 11.-Elizabeth
Freeman, the British militant suffra-
get who drove to fame in the little
yellow wagon" with General Rosalie
Jones army, doesn't wear any sort
of prefix on her name. Also she
doesn't wear hats or corsets and
prides herself on one-piece gowns of
her own design. She is as eager to
reform woman's dress as to change
her political status.
1.-THE tyranny of clothes is one of
the first shackies that woman must
sunder," declares this bundle of fem
mine dynamics.
"But she doesn't need the vote to
do that, does she?" Elizabeth was
asked. t..
f'Noman needs the vote to learn
how 20 think" came the answer
quick as flash, "and until she does
know how to think she will not dis
card the silly absurdities of fashion"
And as for her own mentality, well,
just start Elizabeth Freeman on the
subject of English militancy and
presently you'll be startled to find
yourself agreeing that little dyna-
mite before breakfast in premier's
house is a proper pastime, that
smashing windows is a creditable
performance, and that burning the
alter or two for the cause" is mere
ly an after-dinner pleasantly.

SENECA HAS A BAD FIRE.
Ten-Cent Stores Stock Totally De-
StrOyed-O. II. Bacon Also Loses.

Seneca, Dec. 23.-Special: Seneca
was visited by fire last Friday
night that, at first, threatened the
entire business block, and but for
the fact that it came early in the
night, before the citiZesn had retired,
the fire would have made such head"
way as to be beyond control. The
Ten-Cent Store, just opened by w.
A. Holland, was found to be on fire,
in the rear Of the building, and its
contents were totally destroyed. The
stock next door, owned by O. f. Ba-
con, was damaged by water and
smoke, the extent of which is not
known. Mr. Hollands stock was
insured, also the building, owned by
G.. w. Gignilliat. The heroic work
done by citizens is expressed in the
fact that the flames were under con-
troll before further damage was
done.
Mrs. G.. B. Smith and Miss May
Hamilton have arrived in Seneca to
spend Christmas with their parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. w. o. Hamilton.
