SKIRTS TIGHTER THAN EVER
Are slit to Alo the Wearers Some
Freedom Of Movement.

London, March 6.-According to a
London fashion expert who has just
returned from Paris, the dressmak-
ers of that city are proposing not
merely to revive the hobbe skirt,
but TO make it tighter than ever, so
that women Will be almost unable to
walk in it. This London expert
says:
1.-The SIX rts ! saw in Paris were so
tight around the legs that the wear
ers could scarcely walk. The dress
es are frightfully ugly. In some
cases they are draped up some inch
es in front or on the side to allow the
feet some little movement, and are
arranged with folds of the material
in drapings around the thigh and tap
ering TO the ankles.
THE draped hobble is more insid-
ious than the plain hobble skirt. 1t
has deceived everybody because the
fashion prophecies led women TO be
lieve that the hobble skirt was dead;
that folds and draperies were coming
in, and, therefore, that skirts were
bound to be fuller, and that more
material would be used. The extra
material, however, is used in draping
the bodice and around the hips and
leaves but wispiness OF. skirt
around the ankles.
in very many cases skirts are so
narrow even in tailor-made costumes,
that they must be split in Directoire
fashion up to the knee, or even
above, either at the side or in front.
in many cases buttons and button
holes allow the wearer TO determine
how long the slit shall be-"
almost all the new Partisan
skirts are slit-they must be-" said

French capital

GO KILL ANOTHER, SAYS JUDGE
Sharp Criticism Of Jury's Verdict in
Chauffer's Trial

New York, March Judge Foster
sharply criticised a jury yesterday
when 1t returned a verdict of not
guilty in the trial of Leon Gerard,
taxicab chauffer, charged with re-
sponsibility for the death Of Mrs.
Mary Benham Dithridge. a cousin of
District Attorney Whitman, on April
is, 1912.
Gerard, you can go home now"
said Judge Foster when the verdict
was announced. Now you can get
another taxicab and kill somebody
else. The jury has given you per-
mission
you evidently think" continued
Judge Foster, turning to the jury,
that it is all right for drunken men
to drive motor cars and kill people.
Your state of mind must be similar
to what is described as the peace of
heaven'-it passeth all understand
ing"
Gerard's defense was that the night
was rainy and the pavements wet and
that he did not see Mrs. Dithridge un-
I'll the taxicab was upon her.
He admitted having taken two
drinks OF whiskey.
