during this season with the picturesque note found in the sash of vivid color and in touches of the kind. The newest and smartest costumes show color on white and white accessories on color and both treatments allow of exceedingly beautiful and picturesque effects. For the handsome tailor made of street wear, faring Byron and Medici collars of white satin and white moire make the latest fancy while, for white costumes, shashes and girdles are of the brightest, most vivid hues.
 Crepe de chine has come to be one of the general standbyes. It not alone cleanses perfectly, it can be washed come forth in good condition and crepe de chine is exploited for the simple gowns as well as the more elaborate ones. An afternoon costume of the really practical sort Is made of the material finished with hand en-
 
 broidery and is really beautiful in an altogether useful way. The skirt is straight and narrow with over it one of the new long tunics softly full and open at the front while the bodice is crossed in surplice fashion. the front hems and the turned back cuffs of the short kimono sleeves being finished with dainty little embroidery while the faring pointed collar is embroidered batiste and the wide girdle is of Roman striped ribbon. A visiting costume of the same material Is made with skirt showing simulated tunic and sleeveless Eton coat while the blouse is of white null, the hems, the flatrolled-over collar and the cuffs, all finished with ', embroidery. There is a rather wide waistcoat belt of white kid and the whole effect is exceedingly smart and exceedingly beautiful.

Afternoon gowns are so uniformly made with half low necks that the graduation frocks are excep- tionally pretty this year and excep- tionally dainty in effect This one of taffeta makes good example ard there are others again of net and of simple lace and of crepe de hire and often of one material combired with another. Crepe seems especially well liked for the long tunics and very beautiful gown is made with narrow plain skirt over which is a long box plaited tunic while the bodice is con- bined with soft shadow lace
 For general summer wear, hand kerchief linen is being much exploited and crepe de chine is made up into gowns of all possible sorts. Ore of the prettiest of the white linen gowns that has been seen is made with plain skirt opened at the front and finished with a rather wide hem above which is fold of equal width, and beth tn, hem and the fold are finished at the upper edges with hem-stitching. There is long accordion plaited tunic, the edges of which are scalloped and bound, and this tunic as well as the skirt opens at the front while it is effectively trimmed at its edges with crocheted buttons. The bodice is made with the fashionable straight shoulder yoke below which 1t is laid in tiny pin tucks, and it is finished with the long sleeves that are the latest cry from Paris and with a soft rolling collar that is scalloped to match tke tunic. All sorts of plaitings are tc Ee used Accordion plaits. narrow fat plaits. small box plaits and bounc edges are greatly liked. Undoubtedly we shall see great deal of white WI

|. HERE is something in the warmth EI of the sunshine that brings the
 thought of summer costumes perslstently to the mind. That fact together with the graduation season means somewhat unusual display of attractive white costumes, both those that are adapted to the special func- tioDs of the time and those that will be available throughout the summer. | An exceedingly interesting item of news and one that is sure to be well come IS the fact that organdie is being extensively used. It always was and always will be one of the daintiest and 1oveliest fabrics made but it has. nevertheless, been disregarded by fashion for period of time ard. while its revival does not enhance its beauty. 1t means that that beauty may be en- ]oyed to the full As a matter of course, other fabrics are used. The lime crepes and voies retain their favor. White taffeta is being made into the most fascinating costumes, crepe de chine IS pronounced favorite and as the summer will see every kind of lace used. graduation costumes show the material in its simpler forms as we'll Lace, indeed, promises to be almost craze and lace founcirg, lacc frills and lace garnitures of all sorts are met. As matter of course, hand some lace always gives a rich and elaborate effect and lace costumes are many, but perhaps one of the most notable features of the organdies and the like is the simplicity of treatment. IA really fascinating graduation gown IS made of fine white organdie, the Nentire skirt succession of overlapping lfiounces, there being eight in all and !of graduated width. Each of the !f1ounces is edged with narrow white sTibbon. Otherwise the skirt is un- trimmed. The bodice is made with soft surplice fronts, dropping shoul- iders and beruffled elbow sleeves, and ithere is high Medici collar, bat the finnish of ribbon on all the edges is the fonly trimming to be found. Tn spite lof the fact that lace is such a pro- lnounced favorite for entire gowns and flor hounces, it is little used upon lOrgandie and either such ribbon finish has the one mentioned or hand en- |broidery is preferred for tho gradua- tion costumes at least, although Valenciennes lac. which always seems to belong to lingerie materials by natural selection is allowed. A very lovely gown, for example, is made with narrow under skirt of organdie over which are two shaped tunics, one of Nalenciennes lace and ore of organdie, while the bodice combines the two materials. .
 Taffeta of the soft, supple kind
 makes lovely gowns both for school
 md college functions and for general
 ummer wear. A charming one
 adapted to both uses combines it wit!

To maze the outline stitch, take short stitches, keeping the needle toward the right and work upward. Make the French knots by bringing the threaded needle up through the goods, wind the thread around the needle several times and then, tightly holding the thread in the left hand, insert the needle near the starting point and slowly draw the thread through.

 tcrially, as well as from the standpoint of the horses. and we look to them to establish certain features of the season. It is evident that d great many striped materials and great many figured materials are to be worn in combination with plain fabrics, and frills and rufles galore will un- questlonably make a really important as well as exceedingly interesting fca ture of the summer. It is a long time since we have been so feminine. and II is a real luxury to be as befrilled and dainty as a real womaD's instinct calls for. .
 Such a wonderful variety of tunics too, are to be found, and such delight fully quaint and picturesque effects as are obtained from the contracts of colors as well as of materials. In many of the latest costumes there IS to be found what might be called success sion of tunics or overskirts. and in others again founced skirts are to be seen, while side by side with such effects we meet the trimmest kird of coat suits and separate wraps of such prac- tical sort that they are the delight of the motor enthu- sidst and the woman who travels the season through. What is known as the Bal macaan coat is in the height of style and will do service throughout the season. It is so loose and ample that 1t
 will not crush the daintiest gown and is genuinely pro-
 tective, while its smartness is . unquestioned
 trills and ruffles are always
 essentially youthful in effect, / and the young girls dresses 4 are bewitching, for every MA kind of ruche and similar S trimming is used in their
 making, and ribbors play an
 important part, and we all know that ribbons are per-
 fectly adapted to the girls

UNITED STATES MAY MAINTAIN ORDER IN
 CHINA DURING WAR

Washington, July 31.-Responsibility for the maintenance of order in China in the event of general European conflict. ob- servers here believe will fall largely upon the United States At present the inter- national guard, including American ma rines and soldiers, approximate 5000 of flcers and men. Of these forces 335 Amer ican marines under command of Major Dion Williams are guarding the legation at Peking, While 1900 infantrymen with a machine gun platoon are at Tien-Tsin,
 under command of Col. John C. F. Tilson.
 It was suggested tonight that if a gen eral European war came foreign troops other than those of the United States
 and possibly Japan might be withdrawn
 to augment home forces and to prevent complications in-China. It is thought l however, that the present American | forces would be sufficient to guaranteC order and insure undisturbed traffic or the railroad between Tien-Tsin and Pek | ing.

RAOUL VILLAIN, ALLEGED AS- SASSIN, RESCUED FROM AN GERED POPULACE BY POLICE. GOVERNMENT DENOUNCES MURDER

Paris, July 31.-Jean Leon Jaures, the noted socialist leader, was sssnssinated tonight while dining in n small restau- rant near the Bourse. The assassin was arrested, but refused to disclose his identity. Later he wns identified as RaouI Villain, 20 years old. and said tu be the son of clerk of the civil court at Rheims.
 Louis Malvy, minister of interior, on learning of the crime, left the meeting of the council and ordered precautions to be taken to prevent demonstrations.
 M, Jaures was seated at table near an open window, facing the Rue Montmar- tre chatting with several socialist depu- ties and the editor of the l. Humanite. As though by prearrangement. the curtain covering the window was lightly brushed aside and a hand holding a revolver was thrust through.
 Before NJ. Jaures could move ne re- ceived two bullets in the back of the

 Police Rescue Assassin
 The reports of the shots startled the diners and passersby and the assassin was seized. In his pocket was another loaded revolver. The police rescued him from the crowd which shouted death to the assassin.
 The body of the noted deputy was placed in city conveyance which, sur rounded by weeping comrades and friends, proceeded to his home, followed by a detachment of republican guards. There were shouts of .'vive Jaures" by the crowd and later demonstration in front of the office of LHumanite and in the horlevards when the newc came general ly known.
 M. Jaures had returned here yesterday from Brussels, where ne attended the international socialist conference to pro- test against the war and since his arrival had delivered an address on the subject His campaign against hostilities is thought possibly to have had some con nection with his murder
 One of the witnesses to the shooting said the assassin of M. Jaures declared after he fred
 "I did it because Jaures fought the three first years (the three years military law) he fought France.
 The government tonight took official notice of the crime by ordering a proc .lamation, signed by Premier Viviani, post ed on the walls of Paris. It denounces the murder of M. Jaures and counsels the people not to throw the city into dis order.

PRESIDENT WILSON
 WILL CONFER WITH
 THE RAILROAD MEN
Will Try and Prevent, if Possible, Strike of Engi- neerS on 9S Western
 Railroads

Washington. July 3I.-Determined to prevent. if possible, the strike of 55,0o0 engineers and fremen on 9S western rail- roads, expected Friday. August :, unless the employers and employees can be brought together, President Wilson to- night held a long conference with Judge William l.. Chambers and Judge Martin A. Knapp of the federal board of me- diation and conciliation preparatory to meetings he is to hold tomorrow with representatives of the railroad managers and workmen.
 The President will appeal directly 10 the employers and employees to settle their differences without a strike. He will tell them that because of the war in Europe and the necessity of moving the large crops in the west, strike at this time would be disast to the coun- try.
 Representatives of the managers and of the employees are to see the President separately. He will talk to the managers at ? o'clock tomorrow aftrnoon and the employees at 5 o'clock. Later it is expect ed both sides will confer again with members of the mediation board.
 Judge Chambers and Judge Knapp told the President tonight of their fruitless efforts to bring the two sides together during the negotiations at Chicago. It is understood the members of the board believe the only way to settle the differ ences Is by arbitra ton under the New lands law.
 The President was informed that more than 31,00o,000 persons live along the rail- roads affected by the threatened strike and that many thousands in addition to the railroad employees will be thrown out of work if the strike is called.
