Before-Sandals to BE the Vogue in

There has never been a time when

Then again, the chic tailor made

The newest conceits are in patent
leather with little chunks of co1ored
velvet to match the costume and the

BRIDGE DINNER INVITATIONS.

The invitations to a bridge dinner

you like, we will play bridge after

REDLANDS HOUSE
BURNS TO GROUND

The home of A. c. Coburn, Sr., on
the Redlands, was burned to the
ground this afternoon at o'clock in
spite OF the efforts of about 30 bridge
workers and others, who ran from
the new Main Street bridge near by
and tried to put out the flames. The
house, with all OF the contents eX-
cepting little bedding. was de-
stroyed and it is thought that the
fire started from an overheated cook
stove.
The house is located in a grove of
trees at the south end of the new
bridge. Workmen, busy on the iron
work of the structure, discovered the
flames from their perches, and ran
to the dwelling and worked hard to
eXtinguish the fire. They We're able
to drag a little furniture and some
bedding from the three rooms; but
very little of value was saved. The
home is now smouldering ruins.
Mr.. Coburn was in this city when
the fire occurred, and did not learn
of it until the building was destroyed.
His wife was not home at the time
of the fire.
The loss is placed at about $500.

HISTORY Of
INCOME TAX

Washington, D. c., Jan. 4.-The
provision authorizing an income tax
as now made part of the federal
constitution will be known as the
sixteenth amendment" and reads
as follows:
Article NVl-The congress shall
have power to lay and collect taxes
on incomes, from whatever source
derived, without apportionment
among the states, and without re-
gard to any census or enumeration.
The change in the fundamental
law of the land marks a new epoch in
the American tax system. For the
first time congress is given specific
authority by a provision of the fed
eral constitution to levy an income
tax. All previous efforts for a tax of
this kind have been without the ex-

ST. Louis, Sept. A rural visitor

three inches tall and imbued with a
belated Labor day spirit and several
other kinds of spirits came to st. Louis
yesterday. Like most other strangers
here he went out for a stroll before
train time. When he became tired he
walked into one of the most fashion
able hotels near Forest park and
sprawled himself out for rest in a
rocker in the center of the lobby By
and by the clerk asked him for whom
he was waiting and the stranger re-
piled For a train
The clerk explained that trains did
not pass the hotel and asked a police
man to direct the ruralite to Union
station. An hour later guests at an
other large hotel saw the stranger walk
into their midst. remove his shoes and
settle down for a quiet Sleep Again a
policeman was called and again the
stranger replied he was waiting for a
train This time the officer accom-
panied him a street car to Union
station At the depot. the stranger,
still blisfully ignorant Of his mistakes,
remarked to the officer, Fine lot of

San Francisco, Sept. 4.-Charles
Crafty, one of the most distinguished
of American scuIptors, has been Sc
lected to model an heroic statue, the
Pioneer Mother, which is to be the
central exhibit of the fine arts de-
partment of the Panama-Pacific eX-
position. The design will idealize the
spirit of the brave women who first
crossed the plains to the western
shores of America. At the close of
the exposition the monument will be
presented by the Pioneer Mother Mon
ument association of California to the
city of San Francisco and will prob
ably be installed permanently i'll the
new civic center of the city.
The sculptor's first conception of
this memorial is that it will consist
of a heroic group with central
ymbolic figure of woman, and
children, typifying the future. The
past with all it's. wealth of romance
and the present with its happy frui
ton from the seeds planted by the
pioneer mother will be represented
by sculpture panels placed inserts
on the pedestal. 1t is expected that
when completed the design will be
one of the most important and ar
tistic pieces of monumental sculpture
In the United States, fulfilling the
ideals of the monument association
and of the sculptor a fitting memo
rial to those brave women who, in
early days. endured both privation
and hardship in reaching California
and in the American settlement and
civilization of the state.

TANGO IS APPROVED.
Dancing Masters Place Ban ON Turkey
Trot and Grizzly.

Bridgeport, Conn, Sept. 4.-Of all
the speed" dances which have been
analyzed by the International Asso-
citation of Masters of Dancing, which
yesterday began a three days session
here, the tango" the Hesitation
waltz, the 'thitchy koo'' and the
peacock glide" are all right if danced
with decorum.
This is the opinion laid down after
first consideration of the steps in
these dances. P. H. Kelly of Holyoke,
Mass, secretary of the association,
declared the turkey trot,'' the horse
trot'' and the grizzly bear were vul-
gar. I'VE will never recognize then, -
he said 1.-The dancing is from the
hips up instead of from the hips down,
as is proper. 1t is not so much what
the turkey trotters' do with their
feet. That does not count It's the
position which tends to vulgarity."
The association during its session
will unity the steps of the approved
dances in order to teach them cor
repf!V
