Watches Every Play.
There was not single play during the
game which the President missed. He
watched the progress OF the game with
keen interest and was never at a loss to
understand just what was going on be-
fore him. When Moeller made his single
which won the game for Washington the
chief executives face was wreathed in
smiles.
That he was anxious not to miss sim
gle play was shown when just as the
stood before him, obscuring the view of
the field. He motioned them aside. and
when there was hesitancy on their part
to comply with the request he called to
one of his secret service men and said:
Sloan, have those boys move out of the

men did as they were bid. and when the
way was cleared the President leaned
over and whispered a Thank YOU.

NECKBANDS OF RIBBON
DECORATED WITH MOCK JEWELS,
THEY ARE MOST EFFECTIVE.
With Cheap but Carefully Selected
Stones a Perfect Imitation Of the
More Costly Ornaments May
Well BE Achieved.

Neckbands of velvet ribbon on
which are sewed rhinestones, crystal
or Jet beads are easily made and very
effective.
The popular width for neck veivets
this season Is an inch or tritie mere
and where the rhinestones are Dewed
on to simulate slides the inner side OF
the velvet ribbon is stiffened slightly
with a piece of satin covered collar
bone. In making such a neckband
measure OF an inch and a half on each
side of the front and at this point sew
q closely set row Of tiny brilliants,
which cost as little as ten cents a doz-
an. SO placed and well stinened un-
derneath these simulate the 1eweled
slides Of the more expensive neck
bands.
This leaves center space Of three
inches for special decoration. A good
way Is to festoon, from one upright
to the other, three or four strings
of small beads, letting the lower string
droop below the line Of the velvet
band. Another easy decoration Is to
use a single string Of beads Tor the
the festoon and in the middle attach
a small pendant. A single pear shaped
mock pearl is good for this purpose
and 30 are many Of the inexpensive
pendants Of mock jewels.
Hand made pendants are easily
fashioned by covering with black vel
vet two circles Of cardboard OF about
the thickness Of visiting card. Sew
them together with neat over and
over stitch, drawing the sewing silk
tight enough to sink into the pile
of the velvet. II pearl beads have
been used for the neckband sew small
pearls at intervals around this velvet
circle, threading the beads 80 that
they shall lie out from the circle like
q little frame. Have a center formed
of a jet or pearl cabochon with three
or more radiating lines Of small beads
Such finish for velvet neckband
may be varied almost indefinitely and
the size may range up to the dimen-
sions Of the popular enamel lockets.
Even with a neckband Of black the
pendant may be Of any bright color
with an encircling row Of Jet beads
and a center ornament Of Jet and
rhinestones.
Neckbands of folded black malines
are o novelty and are easily made
along the same lines as the band of
velvet except that the rhinestones or
pearls used to simulate slides should
be sewed to background Of the mar
rowest Of satin o. velvet ribbon and
the necessary boning placed on the
inner side.

FOUND WORKS OF STEVENSON
Manuscripts and Works Of Popular
Writer Unearthed In Samoa and
Hawaii, by an Admirer.

1t is learned that number OF new
and relatively important manuscripts
OF Robert Louis Stevenson have been
discovered in Samoa and In Honolulu
by an ardent admirer Of the great
novelist, who has been for some time
in both Hawaii and Samoa seeking
such writings of the famous Scotsman
as might possibly be found in the pos
session OF some of the many friends
Of Stevenson during his years in the
Pacific.
The result Of this research has been
the finding Of an essay, said to be
highly poetical in character. written
by the novelist after witnessing a vol
cano in action. supposedly either the
famed crater Of Savaii or the pit Of
Kilauea In Hawaii;-a piece of fiction
dealing with South Sea life, and a
number of smaller verse compositions.
Still another manuscript, a blank
verse relation of a wellknown legend
Of Maui. of considerable length, but
unfinished, has also come to light, and
the enthusiastic admirer of Stevenson
feels highly rewarded for his month
of effort.
