WATER TANGO LATEST FAD
IN THEIR BATHING SUITS COUP
LES TROT TO MUSIC.
At Fashionable Resorts Some Dane
ers Do Not Leave Ocean, But Jig
In and Down in Water.


NEW YORK.-The water tango
has struck the beaches about New
York. Down at Manhattan, Bright
on and Coney Island any afternoon
these days, when the hotel bands
begin to play any one of tifty-seVen
varieties of half-time, beach bathers
and sea bathers alike seize the near
est partner and begin to trot or to
Boston or to castlewalk.
The sight is curious if scarcely
beautiful, says Nixola Gouley-Smith
in the Every World. Young women
in dripping bathing suits with wisps
of hair streaking from under caps
do not suggest Venus rising from the
sea, even though we know that If
Venus were to rise anywhere from
the Battery to Coney Island this sum-
mer she would fall automatically in
to the Hesitation Glide.
For weeks the guests at country
and seashore hotels have counted no
day well spent which did not begin
with a dance on the piazza after
breakfast, and some day soon it will
be considered the correct thing to
warm up for breakfast with trot.
But the water tango is the newest
of all. There are those who do not
leave the ocean to dance, but Jig up
and down in the water. The more
enterprising, however, rush to the
frmer footing of the sand beach and
trot till their bathing suits are dry
or till the orchestra takes a rest.
Apparently there is no age limit
for turkey trotters. No one is too
old and no one is too young. You
see charming young girls trotting
with a grace and absence of self-con-
seriousness that few grown women
possess. You see old women with
white hair Bostoning with the best
of them, and until you do it your
self you don't understand it. You
look at it and you ask: rs it pos
sible that an immortal soul can
amuse itself by inventing crazy ways
of getting about a room when it's so
much pleasanter and cooler to sit
right where you are and let the wait
err do the turkey trotting?"
You think, too, of the Chinese am
bassador who saw the beauty and
chivalry of England dancing together
for the first time and inquired Won
deringly of the man who took him,
why don't they make the servants
do it?'

BOIL WEEVIL NEARS GEORGIA
Pest Is Only Thirty Miles Away, and
State EntOmolOgist May Quar-
antine Three Counties.

ATLANTA.-"W will have to
quarantine three counties in Georgia
for boil weevil against the rest of the
state before the end of the present
season. we are afraid" said State
Entomologist e. L. Worsham today
According to Mr.. Worsham the boil
weevil, which has been making such
great ravages on the cotton crop in
Alabama, is within thirty miles of
the Georgia line, and the department
expects the boil weevil to invade
three counties in Georgia before the
first frost.
The legislature, which has just ad-
iourned, placed in the hands of the
state entomologist the question OF
quarantining, and the entomologist
has lifted the quarantine against cot
ton lint and cotton seed hulls, which,
as has been proven, do not transmit
the boil weevil, but will enforce a
strict quarantine against cotton seed
from all infected points.

HE'S GONE BACK TO NATURE
4 Maine Chap Is in the Woods With
out Clothing or Implements of
of Civilization.

Joseph Knowles, a Boston painter,
is now in the Maine woods without
clothing, matches or any implements
such as are in use in civilization.
Some time ago he announced that he
intended to go back to nature" for
two months and prove that man can
exist in perfectly wild" state,
starting out on an equal footing with
wild beasts so far as other than nat
ural weapons are concerned. The
experiment IS unique and, therefore,
interesting, but it isn't likely that
mankind IS a general thing is going
TO give up street cars, automobiles,
tie movies, 13-inch guns and the like
merely because somebody demon
strates that those things are not nee
essities like air and water and food.

PRICE THAT MUST Be PAID
A SLAVERY APPRECIATED ONLY
BY OWNERS OF JEWELS.
Fashionable Women Sne0 Costly
Gems On Highway as They Might
Handkerchiefs OR Trinkets.

Gems On Highway as They Might
Handkerchief or TrinketS.
If a man had a hundred silk hats
or 200 pairs of shoes he might be
careless of them. Perhaps he or his
valet would mislay a few. 1t is pos
sible that of the profusion some one
deeming himself in need of hats or
shoes would help himself
When milady has jewels to the var
ue of 100000 it is plain that she
must stand guard over them herself
or entrust them to the care of an
other. In the last mentioned case if
the entire family and II of the p
servants chance to be away from
home, as vas the situation at a Mar
ragansett pier robbery recently, it
may easily be seen that the custo-
dianship is imperfect, TO say the least
of it.
Ownership of jewels by the bas-
ketful impose either slavery to the
treasure or a trustfulness of others
that may not be justified, but its
most common result is carelessness
in their keeping. To judge from the
lost advertisements in the news
papers never a day passes in New
York that women do not shed costly
gems on the highways as they might
handkerchiefs or fans All this is
the result in most instances of an
abundance which predisposes the
owners to negligence and reckless
ness.
A more important consideration,
however, is the temptation which in
other directions such Indifference
throws in the way of those who are
weak and criminal By mere mat
tention at the opera, the restaurant
or the dance to drop an ornament
that might embellish a crown wo-
man over-supplied in chat respect
harms no one but herself. Similar
heedlessness elsewhere encourages
theft and burglary and possibly muir
der. Bondage to a Jewel casket is
not agreeable to most people, but to
a certain extent it is the price that
must be paid for the responsibility of
possession.

MILADY IN TIGHT SKIRTS
FROCKS WILL BE SLIT AND THIN,
But THEY'LL BE DRAPED.
Tango Skirt in Evidence, and Besides
There Is the Butterfly Wrap and
the I-Don't-See-You Gown.


NEW YORK.-Hamlet without
Hamlet. or you can have your cake
and eat it. will be the motif of mad
ame's garb next fall. There will be
Sits without any opening, shadow
skirts without any view. It will be
season of compromises.
These things are all evident at the
annual style review of the Garment
Manufacturers Association, says a
Chicago dispatch to the World. And
the DEGREES are authoritative, for it
is the assertion of the garment man
ufacturers that the fashions for
majority of American women are ere
ated by it.
Skirts will be just as tight and just
as thin and just as slit. 1t is only
that they won't look that way. The
sensible American woman, according
to one leading designer, wants the
graceful. smart effect of the narrow,
slit skirts, but she wants it less SEN
sational.
The I-Don't-See-YOu Gown.
For which reason ingenious de-
signers have advised gown with
rows of ruff1es or founces running
around the bottom. The skirt is slit
and of the transparent texture that
the dictates of fashion demand, but
the thick circles of fiouncing fill up
the gap and make the whole thing as
impregnable to vision as Chinese
wall. Smartness-and modesty.
What more will any woman want?
Beyond this there won't be much
change. The narrow skirt with
straight lines will prevail. There
will be much more fullness around
the hips, however, and skirts will be
somewhat longer. Drapings also will
be popular
Freedom is allowed in the choice
of colors, and no one shade will be
much more popular than any other.
If there is any preference it is in !
various shades of green. The same
freedom is noticed in materials. II
there is any preference in the latter
it is toward sobriety, the Bulgarians
being somewhat more subdued and |
the combinations of cloth less hectic. !
Among the novelties is what is
called a tango skirt This is built !
along the architectural lines of coat
shirt-that is, it buttons around in
stead of going on over the head. 1t
has the advantage Of providing an
elastic slit, sliding scale of frank /
ness. The wearer can leave as many /.
of the lower buttons unbuttoned as
she chooses.
Furs Are to Be COlOred.
Colored furs will be distinctive
note in winter wear. Cloaks Of new
and varied materials, worn with fur
hats and fur collars, will be most
conspicuous.
Evening gowns will have the same
general tendency, although there will
be more room for originality of treat
ment. One of the novelties is what
is known as the butterfly wrap. Here
is a technical description:
Coral colored brocaded faille, cut
from one piece, draped to give the
butterfly effect A most unusual col
lar effect is obtained by large bow
made of moleskin. The wrap is worn
over the notwithstanding gown IN
coral colored crepe meteor and chif-
fon trimmed with rhinestones.

Walker Defeats Negro.

After an almost unprecedented
battle with the civil service commits
sion Representative Walker has sue
ceeded in having a white man APP
pointed as fireman of the federal
building at Waycross. Several weeks
ago when a civil service examination
was held John D. Linville, white
man, and a negro named Pandy pass
ed the test. Linville testified that he
was without physical blemish, though
three fingers are missing from one
of his hands. This was reported to
the commission by a political enemy,
and Linville was declared ineligible.
So determined was Mr.. Walker that
the negro should not be appointed
that he made a fight out of all pro
portion to the size of the job, which
pays $50 a month Today he was
promised by President McIlhenny OF
the commission that Linvilla would
get the appointment.

Paint?

There are two good reasons for
painting often-enough or even too
often. One. to. look prosperous;
two, to be so.
Nothing does one more credit or
gives one more credit than paint,
supplemented of course by what
goes with it; and paint costs moth
ing.
True, the first cost is SIS or Sc
gallon put-on; but it saves more
than that in the property; saves
it from slow going-down-not al
ways slow-it drops with a jump
when water gets in on wood and
iron
Dry wood and iron cost nothing,
kept dry by paint.
Better paint when it needs it..
Paint never goes-down in the sense
of being more profitable next year.
