waistcoat makes not the slightest
pretension to fit. Made of white

ply of pockets, and fastened with
pearl buttons, it looks precisely like
the generous waistcoats worn by our
great grandfathers.

but is appliqued on to the dress, or
the coat itself. This fake waistcoat
Is grown out of all resemblance to
the traditional feminine vestee. It
reaches out to the shoulders at the
top and extends twelve or fourteen
inches below the Waistline. 1t is
generally in brilliant bOrcaded silk
contrasting sharply with the dark
material of the suit upon which it is
applied.
Much more attractive and really
graceful are some of the big loose
waistcoats in white corded silk, with
very wide revers and collar which
are worn outside the coat itself. In
one of these striking costumes the
waistcoat is confined by a belt. over

extends in two deep rounded points.
This one does not button, the revers
crossing each other and fastening
under the belt. But in most instances
these garments afford a chance for a
good deal of originality in the selec-
ton of buttons and other ornamental
trimmings.
These extremely ample white waist
coats. which are especially good with
long cutaway coats that do not fasten
in front, have not gained much of a
following in this country as yet. They
are too new. But they are sure to

dressing the part.

JUNE PROMISES
MUCH BUILDING
New Inspector Issues Sew
eral Permits in -Four Days
and This is Taken to In
dictate Almost Unpreced-
ented Activity

In the four days up to last evening
that Howard b Claflin has been
building inspector of the city of
Phoenix, nine permits have been re-
quested and eight granted for build
ings, improvements or removals. The
one refused was for a proposed $50
600 structure which did not seem to
comply with the exact requirements
Of the city building laws and the
granting of which was temporarily
held up until some minor changes
may be made in the plans.
The most important permit issued
during the four days was that for
the erection on North Central avenue,
opposite the Central school building
Of a three story, brick and stone
store and office building. to be erect
ed by /. \. Amirault, as contractor
for f. NJ Mognett, president of the
Maricopa Creamery company. The
building will cover a space of so feet
ed brick with steel columns.
The first floor will be devoted to
stores which will be offered for lease
while the upper stores will be de-
voted to the most modern office
rooms in the city. Work is to be
commenced at once and is to be
rushed to completion.
Another permit granted was for
the erection of a one story concrete
foundation, brick structure to be
utilized as bottIing works The
building is TO be erected by r NJ
Tuclley, formerly connected with the
Arizona Auction and Development
company at APP East jefferson street.
1t is estimated that the cost of the
building will not be less than $1,000.
Another permit granted was that
authorizing the removal of the Plaza
theater belonging to Hart Brothers,
from its present location. the store
on East Washington now occupied by
Hans Herlick as a liquor store Her
lick will shortly remove to the new
Dennis building. upon which he holds
a long term lease. while the building
now occupied by the thcater will be
soon torn down to make room for the
kerrick building soon to rise as the
home of the New York store
While Inspector Claflin was sworn
in on Monday no permits were issued
on that day owing to the fact that
the new inspector and the retiring
official were busily engaged in maxi
ing the transfer Of the effects of the
office. For the month of June when
it i generally expected that there
viii be n lull in building matters it
is considered that the first few days
give promise Of June being a record
month.

SUMMER FAIR
IS UNDER WAY
The Farmers Institute
Committee Believes 1t
Will Be Even More Sue
cessful Than 1t Was
Last Year

Arrangements are going forward
rapidly for the second summer fair
OF the farmers institute under the
direction Of the fair committee. The
exact date of it has not been set but
it will probably be about July 10. The
members of the committee believe
that il will be even more successful
than that of last year and that was
surprisingly successful, not only in
the range and quality of the exhibits
bur III the Improvement of the
methods of agriculture in the valley.
The expenses Of the fair were
borne for the most part by contrlbu-
lions for the prizes which were not
costly but were none the less treas
ured BY those who won them. The
committee secured from the board OF
supervisors an appropriation which
was not to exceed 5000. 1t was ex-
planned to the board that the money
be left in the hands of the board to
be PAID out on vouchers approved by
the committee. 1t was found that
when the bills were settled a large
part Of the appropriation had not
been exhausted. This appropriation,
it should be stated was a part of tbe
sum which the board is allowed TN
der the law for advertising purposes.
The time fixed for holding the fair
is ''betWixt and between" That is
the early crops are just beginning
to go out and the late crops are be-
ginning to come in. Thus there was
a variety of exhibits which surprised
even the farmers. They did not
know that so many things and of
such an eXc:llent quality were be
ing raised in the valley. The fair
will probably be held at the same
place this year that it was last, on
the sidewalk on the Washington
street side Of the city hall plaza.
The most valuable feature of the
fair was the opportunity it afforded
farmers for exchanging notes; it be
came a clearing house of the best
methods of farming employed in the
valley and as a result better methods
were generally employed. There has
been less discing and more deep
blowing and consequently, better
crops At the next fair it is eX
pected that the valley farmers will
learn more from each other than they
did a year ago. Another result was
the increased interest in raising prize
products as the agricultural exhibit
from this county at the state fair
proved.

FADS AND FASHIONS

NEW YORK, June 4.-The extra
ordinary variety of styles from which
one may choose this season, whatever
comes nearest to fitting the tempera-
ment as well as ones figure, is pos
itiveIy astonishing. Many Of the
STYLES are exceedingly charming if
worn by the right persons, others are
more odd than beautiful and can be
worn successfully only by few wo-
men and finally there are few
styles which, even under the most
favorable conditions, are simply hid
~eous. The Oriental note is particu-
l&rly conspicuous at the present time.
The gorgeous effects borrowed from
Persian and East Indian costumes
are holding their own in the face of
the approaching summer. when they
might reasonably be expected to dis
appear.
Beads and bugles and pearls and
rhinestones are used in ornamenting
the most elaborate summer evening
costumes quite as much as they were
during the winter. Wonderful chif-
fons and tulles embroidered in these
brilliant effects are still to be seen,
while pearls are used on many of the
simpler frocks.
Elaborate lingerie dresses this sea
scr are almost exclusively of en-
broidered batiste combined with real
laces of the heavier varieties such as
coarse filet, Cluny, Venise and Allen
con. or they are of net with shadow
lace or other fine Weaves combined
with the embroidered batiste. Eng
lIsh eyelet embroidery, which early in
the season appeared to have suffered
a setback, has been coming into
favor again in Paris and here. 1t is
now shown more frequently in batiste
than in linen and is deliberately en-
broidered as well as "eyeletted.'
Among the most striking novelties
OF the season are waistcoats, which
appear in many extremely odd and
not always artistic variations There
is the ''gilet Prud homme,'' for eX-
ample, which has created quite a
sensation in Paris. A vest of the
most ample dimensions is this par

UNCLE SANS GREAT SEAL

Every American is familiar
with the great seal of the United
States-the design of an eagle
with ]outstretched wings bearing
in its beak a scrLll with the words
"E Plurbus Unum." but few know
that there is a e side to the
seal, which, though never used is
Just as officially part CT the great
seal as the side bearing the eagle.
All seals we're originally made
with two sides like a coin. Soft
wax was placed on both the face
and back of the document to be
witnessed by the seal. The diverse
or head impression was made in
the upper wax; the reverse or tail
impression on the under.
The reverse side of the great
seal of the United States mas for
its design a truncated pyramid of
masonry. Immediately above it is
a sleepy looking eye framed in a
triangle which is surmounted by a
sunburst. Above is the motto
''Annuit Coeptis" On the base of
the pyramid is the date l776 writ
ten in Roman numerals. The pyra-
mid is set in a field ~sparsely COW
cred with plants. Below the field
and following the curve Of the cir
cular rim there winds a scroll bear
ing the word"No vus Ordn Seclor-
um."
1t was designated by Charles
Thomson secretary of the Continen-
tai congress in 1882. The complet-
ed pyramid signifies growing
strength and duration he wrote
to Congress concerning the design

Providence in favor of the Ameri-
can cause. The date underneath
that of the declaration of Independ-
ence and the words under it signify

era. which commences from that

The design was criticised so
severely by art critics and others
as being unworthy of a great ma
ton that it was never used official
Iy.
Nevertheless it was adopted by
congress as a part of the great seal
ard as such it must remain until
that adoption is repealed.-New
