MAY MANTON'S FASHION
 NOTES.

THE study of the individual is
 absolutely essential to really
 beautiful dressing is one axiom of the great designer-M. Poriet, that every woman may well take to heart and never was 1t more neces- sary to remember its truth than at this present time. All the world Is looking to the Orient because of many conditions and fashion, as a matter of course, follows the genral trend. Undoubtedly rich colors will be much used. Sumptuous materials are being. much exploited. All brilliant and jewelled effects are being used. Beads are everywhere. Is 1t any wonder that there is need to stop and think before ordering a costume under such conditions? Dealers are clever. They show these wonderful creations against a background of quiet gray or some such neutral tone and each stands out vividly. Unless one Is on the outlook, 1t is a little difficult to remember that, transported into the home or into the ordinary drawing room, the result will be quite different.
Arizona republican., 1913-10-24

bination, for the black enhances the blue in a marvellous way. Since we arc to wear combinations, 1t Is well to consider color effects, for good con trasts are charming, but it is quite possible to make those that are crude and only disagreeable.
 Almost as a matter of course, serge is a favorite, for serge is one of the standbys that never can be overlooked. It makes one of the most durable and practical of all materials for girls
Arizona republican., 1913-10-24

this season almost every costume IS closed at the front; but no woman thinks of beginning a season without shirt waists. They are like the bread and butter of the daily diet, not to be dispensed with, whatever of fancy costumes must be done without We will wear them of washable satin and of tub silks and we will wear them of linen, soft finished piquG and madras. For the colder weather. fine washable fannels are admirable and much liked,
Arizona republican., 1913-10-24

but it hardly need be said that tub silks are the smartest of all materials that are so made are in great demand. The belts and gir6les that make the necessary finish give pretty touch, and they allow a note of color that is so important, for even the darkest, most serviceable dress can be worn with a bright colored belt and tie. Rolling collars make the rule, but the sleeves are long and finished with soft, folded over cuffs or plain straight
Arizona republican., 1913-10-24

U De really comfortable one must
 wear pretty garments, for nc
 woman Is at ease when she does not feel herself becomingly attired Here are graceful and attractive neg ligees and a comfortable home gown
 In addition to being smart, they are all so simple that they can be made almost in the traditional 'jiffy." Never was there better opportunity offered, for fashionable fabrics are marvellously beautiful, and the simple
Arizona republican., 1913-10-24

of the figures is shown a gown of that material in the tango shade with trim ming of black brocaded velvet.
 Drapery, when used, is slight for simple costumes, but there is a ten dency toward massing 1t at the front. To be really fashionable, the waist must be as broad as the shoulders and the hip line must disappear, and every thing that tends toward bringing about that result is in vogue.
Arizona republican., 1913-10-24
IVES there a woman who does

Y IVES there a woman who does not respond with enthusiasm
 to the procession of new and pretty costumes? This autumn we may be really charming in the truest sense, really graceful and attractive, if only we will choose our garments we'll. for La Mode has treated us with great generosity and there is spread before us variety of attractive models and so many new fabrics as well as the familiar ones in new Colors and design that the season seems almost over weighted with opportunity. Silk has become an established favorite for general wear, for silk today means something soft and pliable, not over elaborate but light in weight, soft in texture delightful to wear and alto gether agreeable. Manufacturers are putting out certain silk and wool mix lures also that are really fascinating, and there seems almost no limit in designs, such as brocaded and broche effects, plaids, stripes and the like. Young girls always like plaids and they are always becoming.
 fDLAID costumes or plaid skirts worn with shirt waists are
 exceedingly smart. To be in the very height of fashion there must be a wide belt. The plaids of the season are unusually interesting, and there is plaid 6ponge that is quite new. The younger contingent likes the designs that show bright tones, but green and blue mixtures and quieter colors are apt to be preferred by the more mature; but the only determining factor should be becoming ness. What one woman at forty wears with success IS absurd upon another. The effect upon the individual is the only true test.
 Apparently no blouse Is to be finished with a high neck. If the round neck and square neck are not becoming, we will wear chemisettes, but the blouse must be slightly open to be smart. Trimming materials, or ma terials that are adapted to trimming use, are marvels of beauty, and there are color effects to be obtained that would delight an artists eye. Among new shades is tango red, which is really a sort of modified and beautihed terra cotta. It is marvelIously beautiful trimmed with black, and the color seems to suit the moire velvet that is such a pronounced favorite. On one
Arizona republican., 1913-10-24

DERHAPS there is no more beau-
 tiful fabric among the many A shown than silk and wool crepe in broche effect. One of the gowns in this picture shows that material with trimming of satin, and the contrast of crepe surface with the rich satin is exquisite. The color of the gown is one of the grayish blues that will have great favor throughout the season and the trimming is black It would be hard to find more beautiful com
Arizona republican., 1913-10-24

A MONO other explorations, we "A have had Parisian models shown
 in setting of Persian garden. All the wonderful color effects were harmonious but scarcely one of the colors would have been beautiful in contrast with others likely to be met at any great function or against the background of the ordinary ball room. Again the models that are chosen to exploit these costumes are selected with great care.

NHE Empire line Is a very gener-
 orally becoming one and this
 season it is exceedingly smart. To be really fashionable. almost every costume must show touch of bright color, and often the house gown is made in quiet tone to be trimmed with figured or lowered silk, of which there is an almost limitless variety.

For the breakfast jackets, the soft wool chal- lies, the handsome French Henriettas and the new silk and wool poplins are really ideal; for kimonos there are materials so fascinating that one would like to own an indefinite number The lowered crtpes and the challies woven in Japanese design are especially attractive, but plain colors are more becoming to many women, and very lovely effects can be obtained by using simple aIbatross with bands of plain silk or lowered or figured ribbon, for ribbons this season are a study in themselves, and they show the most beautiful coIors and designs.

WILSON CHAMPIONS nltORM
SPECIAL INTERESTS FIGHTING
TARIFF BILL, SAYS PRESIDENT.
Continues His Fight for Jury Reform
and Constitutional Re-
Revision.

Jersey City. n. j., May 5.-Presi-
dent Wilson interpreted the fight in
New Jersey for jury reform and con-
stitutional revision as a par. of the
struggle Of the American people to
obtain, through the Democratic party,
ejual justice to all and special priv.
lege to none.
Though he made no reference to
legislative policies pending In Wash
ington, the president indicated that
the protests being voiced against the
tariff bin were those of the special in
terests and not the masses.
Some of my fellow citizens and
some of their colleagues in Washing
ton city" he said, now think that
they are hearing the voice of the
people of the United States when they
are only hearing the part that has be-
come vocal by moving down to Wash
ington and insisting upon its special
interests"
The president had spent a strenu-
Gus day, fighting throughout for the
reform which he came to New Jersey
TO advocate.

APPLAUSE GREETS PRESIDENT
Politics From Control
of Old Machine.

Newark, n. j., May 3.-President
Wilson battled hard in two speeches
at Newark and Elizabeth to wrest
New Jersey politics from what he
termed a resumption of control by
Jim Nugent and the old political ma
chine"
Great crowds, frequent Interruptions
of applause, and demonstrations OF
approval. greeted the president when
he put on his wal paint" as he de-
scribed it, and campaigned in earnest
to have the power OF drawing juries
taken from the sheriffs and placed in
the hands of pon-partisan commits
sions. He also pleaded for the call
ing of a constitutional convention and
pointed out that u was no longer re-
garded as a radical procedure to
change constitutions in the United
States.
His two speeches were filled with
satirical characterizations of what he
called the "old gang in New Jersey"
but he made II clear that his fight, for
apparently a locai issue, was made for
the people of the aation.

TWO "WHITE SLAVE" ARRESTS
Milwaukee Police Believe Exposure
Of Criminal Gang Will Be
Made.

Milwaukee, Wis, May 3.-Govern-
ment secret service men and Milwau-
kee police arrested two girls, Rosa
Cucuzza and Angela Gusselli, as the
first step toward undermining an ex.
tensive white slavery and criminal
gang which is thought to be working
in the Third ward.
1t is alleged that the two girls were
brought here from Paterson, N. j.,
after being imported from Italy by a
gang of white slavers.
Chief Jansen, of the Milwaukee po-
lice department, said that he thought
he had gotten at the bottom of the
seven murders which have taken place
in the Third ward during the last
year and that he expected develop
ments would ncove the greatest
gang of desperate criminals working
in the country at the present time.

LONE BANDIT ROBS A TRAIN
BOARDS AT STATIONS AND LINES
UP ALL IN SIGHT.
Passenger who Resists Dangerously
Wounded-About $1,000 Is
Taken.

Kansas City, Mo-, May "a lone
robber who boarded the Kansas City
Southern passenger train, No. 5, at the
station here lined up and robbed the
passengers soon after the train left
here securing $1,100 in money and
jewelry. To rob the millionaire, Jesse
M. Short, was the real object it later
developed.
When Short was commanded to
throw up his hands he drew a pistol
and began firing at the robbers. One
of the men returned the fire and
Short soon fell, badly wounded. The
robber also was hit by a bullet and
he and his companion, fearing the
resistance by the passengers was to
become general, jumped from the
train and ran.
Physicians attending Short at a
local hospital say he will recover I'M
less unforeseen complications arise.
