g ERGE with wide vale or heavy
- whipcord or any Of the fancy cord
ed weaves in fabrics used in making
gown like that shown here will de-
velop a costume as chic as any the
season has offered, although in a de-
sign SO simple that it is distinguished.
BY comparison with the fiounced or.
more properly, TERED skirts, and the
much fused up but pretty jackets
which the present mode parades in
endless variety, this dress is uncom-
promisingly simple. Yet it follows the
mode and will be singled out as one of
the most attractive exponents of it.
The same style is pretty in taffeta
silk, in satin and in plain cloths. But
the last do not prove so easy to hang
In the lines pictured in this illustra-
ton. There must be certain degree
of stiffness in the weave for the best
results.
This gown, like all the other sue
cessful ones, hangs upon the figure in
the easiest manner. The skirt is mar
rowed at the bottom by gathering the
body into a wide band at the lower
edge. The band, in this case, is of the
same material as the rest of the skirt,

although with a sparing use of the
striped trimming elsewhere it might
be made of the stripe, with fine effect.
The plain blouse, open at the front,
has fairly long skirt of the fabric of
the gown. 1t terminates in wide bor-
der of Roman striped ribbon with a
panel let in at the front which extends
up on the bodice to the bust line. There
is vest of white net and flaring collar
which turns back from the neck all
around. 1t is supported with fine
wires that hold it in shape, and fin
ished with a narrow binding of rib
bon.
The overskirt is shaped to lengthen
at the sides and back and is turned up
across the back, showing the reverse
side of the striped border across half
it's width. The sleeves are long with
the upper part wide at the arms eye
and gradually narrowing to the elbow.
Below this they are narrowed to the
arm with no room to spare.
Altogether this gown and hat may
be classed among those that possess
distinction Black colonial pumps and
black silk hose clothe the feet

to the low coil In the coiffure with.
out hat the hair Is drawn back from
the face in lines that lift instead of
the coil. In this coiffure, too, the
coil is higher
This latter arrangement of the front
hair, loosely waved about the face
and drawn back. is used with a
French twist at the back of the head
terminating in coil and puffs at the
top. But the hair is very loosely
drawn up at the back, with fullness
enough to fill in between the hat brim
and the head. Bandeau trimmings
and underbrim bows are cleverly ar.
ranged to help out in this matter OF
filling in.
Another noteworthy feature of the
adaptation of hat to hair is evidenced
In the use of malines matching the
hair in color. Facings of shirred ma.
line on the underbrims of hats, II
made in the color of the hair, are
wonderfully effective.
In all the new coiffures the hair Is
waved and the ears are almost en-.
tirely covered. And the hair is
brought forward on the cheek when
the coiffure is designed for youthful
wearers. Sometimes wave is
combed forward and adjusted by
means of invisible pins. Sometimes a
lock is curled into wiry ringlet and
plastered down with bandoline, as in
the coiffure shown here, and rarely 8
cluster of short ringlets is flattened
and fastened down with invisible pins
which hold them in place.

TELLS OF SINKING
 OF BRITISH SHIPS

New York, Oct. 2-First hand tales of the sinking of the Houston line steamer Hyades (British) outside Per nambuco on August Is. by the Ger man cruiser Dresden, reached New York today with the arrival here Of the steamer Hylas from Liverpool Among the crew of the Hylas were several sailors who had been aboard the Hyades when she was captured by the Dresden.
 These sailors said that while the Hyades was in port at Pernambuco the time of her departure was made known to the Dresden which was waiting outside although out of sight When the Hyades reached the open sea she was stopped by the Dresden. A prize crew was sent aboard and the Hyades' crew taken or. After the prize crew had removed from the Hyades what they thought most de- sirable, the Dresden,s guns sent the Hyades to the bottom.

ANTWERP ATTACK
 SHOW OF FORCE ]?

London, Oct. 2-In describing the attack of the Germans on Antwerp, the correspondent of the Daily Tele- graph, wiring from that city under date of Thursday at noon, says:
 From the top Of a gas tank at Hoboken tthree miles southwest Of Antwerp) last night was witnessed a, scene of sombre grandeur. The line of attack on the city was defined in the clear night air very sharply by flashes of the enerny's great siege guns. Similarly, the line of defense was shown in points of light which stabbed the night from the Belgian forts. It was almost possible. occas- ionally, to see the effect Of the falling shells
 tsThe artillery duels continued throughout the night. The German fire seemed to Joe directed chiefly to- ward emptying the outlying villages and every road into Antwerp was choked with refugees.
 There is no doubt that many alarm ing reports of the German operations will creep across the frontier to HoI- land. We cannot give definite infor- prohibition against news which might be useful to the enemy but 1t can be said with official sanction that the position, while calling for the utmost vigilance and effort, is not alarming.
 The Belgians have suffered in quarters while in others they have in flicted loss. The general balance in spires ionfidence.
 ssAIl scouting officers agree, how ever, that the German attack is mere Iy demonstration which is not in tended to be pushed home. No Bel gian aviators have uncovered any great masses of German infantry"

London, Oct. 2Tz1ough all reports Seem to agree that the German right 5 in Trance has been sent back. the cautious tone Of the brief official statements indicates that the battle of zthe Aisne is far from decided and the British public find a sentimental Indian contingent on French soil and the bull teFrfer-ltke resistance Of the .Antwerpians who headed by their King seek to cheek the German be- sfegers.

 From the east through various sources comes news of the Russian assault on Cracow and it's vicinity where two and a half million Ger mans and Austrians are said to be Concentrated.
 So many conflicting reports have been received concerning the Russian advance through Galfcia- however, that the public Is inclined to await further details
