DECISION UPHELD BY
 COURT OF APPEALS
Judgment Obtained By Postal Tele- graph Company Against Western
 Union Charges Sustained.

Albany, N Y., April 29.-The court of appeals today affirmed an order of the appellate division which in turn affirmed an order of the public ser vice commission at Albany, command ing the Western Union Telegraph company to cease charging the Post al Telegraph-Cable company an ex- tra sum in addition to the regular telegraph toll on te1egrams taken in and transmitted part way by the Postal and then handed over en route by the Postal to the Western Union for further transmission and delivery at exclusive Western Union points. This litigation between the two com panies has been going on for about four years. There were various hear ings before the public service com mission and the final decision of the commission was given in favor of the Postal company.
 Thereupon the Western Union took the matter into the appellate division of the supreme court which affirmed the decision of the public service com mission. The court of appeals now affirms all this and henceforth the Western Union will be allowed to charge only the full toll on messages taken in by the Postal company and directed to points reached by the Western Union and not reached by the Postal.
 c. c. Adams vice president of the Postal company commenting on the decision yesterday afternoon, said that this decision insures keen com petition in telegraphy to all points small as well as large.

 MINISTERS DISCUSSED
Bishop Lawrence Prcsides Over An- nual Convention of Episcopal
 Diocese of Massachusetts.

Boston, April Reconsideration of a pension plan was one of the sub jects to come before the 129th annual convention of the Episcopal diocese of Massachusetts today. Bishop William Lawrence, who presided, was under stood to favor a system proposed by Mcneil Sayre of New Turk, whereby every clergyman in the diocese would receive a sum approximating $500 a year upon reaching the age of 60 years.
 The opening sermon was preached by Rev. Henry B. Bull of this city. A business session followed, with re- ports from various committees, in- cluding that on social service.
 The annual address of Bishop Law renee referred to the liquor problem in these words: Industrial efficiency is driving the drinking man, even the rather moderate drinking man, to the wall. Drink, and that not to excess but habitual gradually disin- tegrates the physical, nerve and moral fibre, and what is more tragic, the sons and daughters reveal the fathers rather loose habits of cocktails and champagne and wl1iskey in weakening bodies and more or less degenerate systems

Everybody dances these days
dance days as well as nights. At lawn
parties as well as balls, and at teas
as well as dinners dancing is sure to
enIiven the entertainment.
So the dancing frock is just as nee
essary a part of the summer ward
robe as it is of the winter outfit and
the summer girl gives just as much
attention to her dancing dresses as
to her outing clothes.
The frock illustrated is made of
white charmeuse, but it would be just
as pretty if white null or Paris lawn
we're substituted for the more ex-
pensive material The underskirt is
short, and it's wide enough to allow
for the glides and slides of the new
dances. The tunic is very simple and
the bodice is simply draped around
the figure, giving the effect of sash.
If made for day wear, short sleeves
and a round neck would be more ap-
propriate than the sleeveless, low
necked gown pictured.
