NITE'S NEW YORK FASHIONS
Forecast of Spring StyIes-Slkirts are of More Graceful WtdtK-Soft F'a- bricS Favored.

Every day the New York stores are increasing their stocks of pretty things designed for early spring wear. While these styles cannot be termed
 authoritative, they are new enough to forecast what will be worn this coming summer. I predict prettier
 season than the summer of 1913.
 The awkwardly' tight skirts have
 given way to a graceful width. They
 are in those fabrics that our moth
 CTS used to call Cashmeres and Hen
 riettas. These are used as the key
 stone of the smart gowns that show
 overskirts and bodices of lace and
 little. cutaway coats of the same ma
 teria1 as the skirts. When the colors
 are good such as the new blues with
 cream lace Or white cashmere with
 black lace overdreeses the style is
 something to be followed.
 Of course this design is not accept
 able for the business girl or the wom-
 an who is obliged to go around at all hours and in all weather. Therefore
 to them commend the new tailor
 gowns which are very smart with the
 long cut-a-away tail backs, closely re- semb1ing the evening coat of the man
 who always dresses for dinner.
 With only two large buttons, the abrupt cut from +he front on these coats allows a generous glimpse of the shirt waist beneath, and the general effect is decidedly pleasing. AS you can buy one of these we'll made at tractive suits for $9, there is no ex- cuse for going about in a dowdy last years style.

woMAN's WAYS.

Many of the new lace collars are bib-1ike in their design, running to point, perhaps, below the bust, but so wide across the front and up on the shoulders and around the neck that, if it were not taken for their extreme ly dainty texture, they would cer- tainly be taken for bibs.
 The white crepe waist, srnartlyn tail ored, and made with set-in sleeve, is about as comfortable and good-look- ing a waist as the ''tailored'' girl could ask, for.
 Those buckled straight, plain linen collars are ideal as finish for the blouse or shirt which is a. part of the riding habit. They are newer than the familiar stock and have a. smart look.-Reformer

THE FAvoRITE ROOM.

Most houses of the slightest preten- sion have a. fa.vorite room. It need neither be the SmarteSt, the largest nor the best furnished, but is possess ed of attractions that are entirely in- dependent of the painter or uphol- sterer- It may be that it's windows look out upon a garden or stretch of lawn that is much beloved, or that from one or more of the windows the finest view to be had from any part of the house is afforded.
 Or 1t may be that the size and shape of the room permit every member of the family, when all the family is every other one present-able to see and hear and to be seen and heard, Again, it may happen that every chair in the room was selected indi- and make comfortable an occupant, so that in time the collection of chairs in the room represents a selection from the standpoint of comfort.
 Then it often happens that a room is a 6avorite for some indednable req son. Naturally every member of the at morning, noon or night that there is opportunity to enjoy it.
 Sometimes it is small reception room that enjoys the distinction; of sky parlor, big, roomy and inviting. In some houses it is a. custom to put one room aside for nondescript uses, and this apartm ent sometimes proves to be the favorite. It is neither libra ry, dining room nor boudoir, but par takes of the nature of all of them, says the Philadelphia. Ledger.
 It will have a piano in it, there will be a. good number of books in it and there will be a writing table. In the favorite room sociability controls the atmosphere. And that is what, after all, makes the favorite room-its at mosphere.

One Manager Thinks the World Pennant Will De pend Strictly on Work of the Infields, and II e Dopes Athletics to Win
TAssocrArED PRESS DIsPATCH1

NEW YORK, oct. 3.-A well known big league club manager said recently that in his opinion more games were won and lost on the infield than in any other department of baseball. Few will contradict the assertion, and it is quite likely that victory will hang to a con- siderable extent upon the work of the Giant and Athletic infields during the coming worlds series between the New York and Philadelphia clubs The Ath- Ietics' $1OO,00O infield is one that com mands respect and admiration in base ball circles, but it is not worrying Giants if their statements are to be be- lieved. McGraw has not tried to put 2 financial figure on his four infield CTS. but he is known to be as well sat isfed with his combination as a man can be Still the fact remains that all the figures available on the worlds series of 1911 and the seasons plays this year point to the Athletics infield quartet composed of McInnis, Collins, Baker and H. Barry as superior to Doyle, Herzog, Shafer and Fletcher considered as a whole. Tn the cOmbin ation which helped defeat the Giants two years ago, McInnis had no part. being on the bench with an arm which had just gained strength after being broken. Harry Davis. the veteran who took his place, proved a most accept able substitute but with McInnis on the initial bag as he will be when the present series opens the Athletics in- field is certain to be stronger than in 1911
 Shafer has held down third for the Giants in place of Herzog most of the season and will possibly alternate with Herzog, according to the style of pitch CT to be faced.
 Aside from the shifts and substitu- tions, the lineup will be the same as two years ago when the Athletics won the worlds championship with four games out of six
 This being the case the figures avail able should prove the best means of affording a comparison between the Continued on Page Two)

Special to The Republican,

CHICAGO, oct. 3-The october grand jury will make an investigation of the circumstances surrounding the divorce which Mrs. Grace Ciuggenheim- Wahl obtained from William Guggen- helm, the millionaire shelter man, in 1901
 Mrs. Guggenheim, who less than a year ago tried unsuccessfuIly to have her divorce set aside, recently had a long conference with States Attorney Hoyne and obtained his consent to have the next grand jury take up the matter with a view to indictments for fraud. One New York and two Chica- go attorneys are the ones Mrs. Gug- genheim declares made all the plans for the alleged fake" divorce.
 According to Mrs. Guggenheim, she went from New York to Chicago in 1901 taking with her an imitation trunk. Sne remained in the Windy City 24 hours, but during that time divorce proceedings were started. In March of the same year she says she came back to Chicago for short time and secured her divorce. The Illinois law provides that no one can secure a divorce in this state without first hay ing been a citizen of the state one year.
 When Mrs Guggenheim sought to have her divorce annulled early in the present year she was unsuccessful, the court holding that she had let the mat ter go too long.

 WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 5.-A happy group of legislators, members of his cabinet and friends tonight, en- circled the president as smiling he sat down and slowly affixed his signature to the Underwood Simmons tariff bill with gold pens presenting to Represen- tative Underwood the pen with which he had written the word ''Woodrow" and the one with which he completed the name to Senator simmons.
 In an impressive silence, the presf- dent delivered in easy. natural tones. an extemporaneous speech that brought prolonged applause.
 "Gentlemen, I feel peculiarly pIeased,' the president said, with what 1 have just done by taking part in the completion of a great piece of business My pleasure is very hard to express in words which are adequate to express my feeling; because feeling as I have, that we have done the rank and file of this country 8 great ser vice.
 "It is hard to speak of these things without seeming to go off into cam paign elOquence, but that is not my feeling. It is one of very profound gratitude that, working with splendid men as those who carried this thing through with studious attention and doing justice to all around, I should have had a part in serving the people of this country as we have been striv- ing to serve them ever since l can re- member
 T had the accomplishment of some thing like this at heart since I was a boy and I know men standing around me who can say the same thing-who have been waiting to see those things done it was necessary to do in order that there might be justice in the United States
 And so in the solemn moment that brings such business to a conclusion I hope I will not be thought to be de- manding too much of myself or my col league when I say that this, great as it is, is the accomplishment of only half the journey.
 "We have set the business of this country free from those conditions that made monopoly not only possible, but in a sense easy and natural. But there is no use taking away the conditions of monopoly if we do not take away also the power to create monopoly and financial, rather than merely conner cial and economic power
 "The power to control guide and di- rect the credits of a country is the power to say who shall and who shall not build up the industries of the coun- try, which direction they shall build and which shall not be built We are now about to take a second step, which will be the final step in setting this country free. That is what we shall do in the currency bill, which the house has already passed and which I have the utmost confidence the senate will pass much sooner than some pessi- mistic individuals believe"
 Concluding his speech, he said. T was quoting the other day, those lines from Shakespeare's Henry ". which have always appealed to me: If it is a sin to covet honor, then am I the most offending soul alive And I am happey to say that I dc
