WINDSOR, June 2S.-Not even the
royalty, the winning Jockeys or the
best thoroughbreds attracted the at
tention during Ascot Week that was
accorded two Southern bellies, Lady
Marlborough, former Louisville, KY,
girl, and Mrs. Cecil Bingham. whose
superb gowns were the cynosure of all
eyes through the gay period
Lady Marlborough, who was Miss
Grace Carr, a sister of Mrs. Bingham,
would be worth a fortune to any Pa
risian modiste, the English society
people are saying, because of her abil-
ity in showing off her clothes and
hats to fascinating advantage.
During the meet she was frequent
ly invited to the royal box, while Mrs.
Bingham was personally compliment
ed by the Queen.
Her costume was entirely of black,
the MORE skirt killed in wide kits
and all around pannier draperies in
voluminous pillows reaching from
the waist almost to the knees. Her
bodice was tight-fitting. with only a
touch Of lace, and there was a single
red rose at the waist.
She carried her usual pagoda para
sol. a fashion started by her two
months ago, but not taken up until
race week She lunched with an in
teresting party, including Lady Ala
stair Innesker (Anne Breese, of New
York;, who wore black charmeuse
draped about the feet, the upper part
of the gown being entirely of fine lace.
Mrs Bingham is now seen every
where with Mrs. George Keppel, the
two having become fast friends dur
ing the past few months.
Lady Marlborough was the greatest

gown was of oyster satin, draped with
rare old black lace in points reaching

Her hat was of the bonnet variety
and weighted with a dozen or more
large roses of the same shades. Her
shoes and stockings were rose color.
She was in the Enclosure with Prince

QUEEN WILL GIVE
BALL To EXHIBIT
MADE HAT
So Delighted With Fancy Dress
Affair She Recently Attended,
She'll Give One Herself.
Special Gable to The American.


LONDON, June 2S.-Queen Mary
was 80 delighted with the Versailles
tete at Albert Hall which she at
tended the other day. that she has
decided to give a big fancy dress ball
herself next year, probably at Buck
ingham Palace.
She wishes all dresses to be of one
period. and this Is rather difficult. for
nearly every period except the pre-
historic has been used. But some one
has a bright idea of a VanDyke ball,
and this for the moment Is favored.
Queen Mary, as a young woman,
was always very fond of dressing up
and liked nothing better than to take
part in amateur theatricals. King
George was rather an obstacle. But
on hearing his wife's eloquent de-
scriptiOn Of the Versailles ball he
yielded to her desire.
The Queen is regaining some Of the
merriment which first endeared her to
the English nation as Princess Mary.
A royal fancy dress ball viii give a
great FLIP to fancy dress.
There have been 30 many Of these
big affairs lately that people are be-
coming rather tired of them, but
there is keen competition already
among London costumers to get the
deal going and carrying out OF the
costumes.
Queen Mary has directly inspired
the fashion Of home made millinery,
which now is much to the fore in the
less go-ahead sections OF society. and
will wear one of her own creations at
the bali. All her matesty's hats are
Of her own designs. and many of
them are partially carried out by her
own fingers. She makes no bones
about her disapproval OF extravagant
sums spent on millinery by many
women Of fashion.

PARIS, June ga tragic sequel
to the Titanic disaster is reported
here. Among the passengers was a
Frenchwoman named Mime. Breyns,
who lived at Bethune. Her husband
a Belgian, aged 3d. read her name
among the list of dead. After time
he sought consolation with another
young woman, with whom he lived at
a place 20 miles from Bethune.
A few days ago he learned that his
wife was among the rescued and that
she was in France searching for him.
This so upset him that he shot and
killed his companion and then fired
two shots at his own head. These
did not prove fatal, and he was on the
point Of hanging himself when the
police appeared and took him to the
hospital.

LONDON, June 2S.-King George

Laureate left vacant by the death
of Alfred Austin, whose muse was less
charming than himself.
The other day in the House OF Com
mons Captain Arthur Lynch, the

Asquith replied $3.50 a year and $3.50
in lieu of the ancient butt of sack"
Two members suggested that the
office of Kings Jester be revived.
Captain Lynch wound up the dis
cussdOn by remarking dryly, as one
who speaks of sack, that 1t seemed to
be wasteful to give a butt of sack for
ha'porth of poetry.

ENTITLED TO POWER
Republican Party Stands for
American Prosperity.
Governor Foss Gives Good Reason for
His Return to the Foid-Organi-
zation Practically Assured of
Power Very Shortly

Eugene N Foss, three times elected
governor of Massachusetts, as a Demo
crat, has returned to the Republican
ranks. Progressive as we'll as Repub-
hcan leaders in congress expect to
see Theodore Roosevelt again a third
term candidate in 1916 and at the reg
ular Republican primaries
Evidently both these ambitious gem
Element, who have given such signal
proofs of their Impotence with the Re-
publican party, have found that when
all is said and done they cannot real
ly get anywhere or do anything with
out it.
Governor Foss put the situation sue
cinctly in his speech before the Essex
Republican club He appeared on the
same platform with Congressman
Gardner and Colonel Benton, Repub-
Hcan candidates to succeed him, adj
dressed his hearers as Fellow Repub-
ncans," and said:
The state and nation need the re-
turn of the Republican party to pow
er, and the Republican party is justly
entitled to success. although its lead
ers in the past have been faithless to
the pledges of the party"
The reason why these ambitious
&enllemen, VINO In their 1mpaCence
and anger have departed from the
Republican party and sought to de-
stroy 1t, are now returning to it lies
in the nature of the Republican party.
The Republican party is not merely
an organized appetite for the political
loaves and fishes. nor fortuitous
combination of personal ambitions al
lied for mutual back-scratching.
The Republican party is a body of
political faith held with conviction
and an instinct of efficiency in the
great business of government. It's
bones and flesh are quiet citizens who
care nothing for public Office or hon.
ors, but who believe in it's principles
with a faith that never fails.
These facts show how absurd is the
proposition to drop the name "Repub-
lican" merely because the party has
been defeated.
The Republican party will live on
because it stands for American pros
perity. the American opportunity and
common sense efficiency in govern
ment, and because men who really
wish to do things in public life sooner
or later learn that only through the
Republican party can they get the
work done.

RooseveItism Not Wanted.

Mr.. Ormsby McHarg has shown that
he can change his political Affiliations
SO readily that he can be regarded as
free from bias. When he asserts, how
ever. that the Republican party will
be reunited with Theodore Roosevelt
as its candidate, he fails to grasp the
true inwardness of Progressive vi
tally.
If Theodore Roosevelt is the Re
publican candidate in 1916 the Pro-
gressive party win be not dead. but
triumphant No longer ago than last
year the distinction was clearly drawn.
So long as there was a chance for the
nomination of Roosevelt by the Chi
cago convention the Republican party
was progressive enough for his sup
porters. 1t was when ii rather strenu-
ously failed to nominate him that it
ceased to be progressive If 1t should
nominate him in 1916 it would resume
tfor Roosevelt) the trus odor of pro-
gressiveness.

Dangerous Tariff Policy.

Although the Democratic senators
would welcome a speedy termination
of the tariff debate, as they are firing
of the prolongation of the special ses-
sion. they are powerless to muzzle the
opponents of the bill and the longer
the debate lasts the stronger does the
opposition to many of the schedules
become. The Illogical and undemo-
cratic course of the senate majority
in insisting on free sugar. when it is
admitted on all sides that sugar is an
ideal revenue producer and that the
removal of the duty will benefit no
one but the sugar trust, is being more
thoroughly understood as the tariff
debate proceeds, and the refusal of
SO many Democrats to speak on the
pending measure indicates rather a
fear of making a poor showing against
the arguments of their opponents
than desire to save time and bring
about final vote at the earliest pos
sible date.
Past tinkering has uniformly prov
en- disastrous to the Democratic party,
and there never was a tariff measure
presented and supported by a Demo
cratic majority in congress which
damaged so many important interests,
and which is, therefore, fraught with
greater danger of disastrous results
at the polls at the congressional cleo
ton next year.-New Orleans Plea
