the design could be used for one of the pretty silk and wool crepes that are so much worn or for any similar ma terial, to become adapted to quite different occasions, or it could be made of white linen of white pique or of white galatea with the neck and sleeve edges scalloped in color, to be just as charming and dainty as possible. One of the inter- esting features of the present fashions is the way in which the simplest de- sign is utilizedboth for the plainest and for the handsomest materials, and the rule applies to children's fashions as to those Ot the grownups. A great many mothers use only washable fab- rics at all seasons but there is wide variety to he found among them, while the simple crepes. challies and the like are very charm- ing in color and design. Rosebud challis with trim- ming of pink bands would make a very pretty little frock. Blue galatea with white bands would make a very ser. viceable one. Both would be equally smart, or, if com binations are liked, the blouse could be of white while the skirt and trimming are of color.

Smith SNIFFS A RODENT
In The BEGGING BILL
Fears Begging Trust is Be.
hind Measure

Washington, D. c., June 2.-Senator
Heke Smith secured the passage by
the senate yesterday of a resolu-
ton requiring the treasury depart
ment to find out what goods would
be affected by the passage of the
House bill excluding from importation
into the United States of any foreign
goods into whose manufacture en-
tered any prison, pauper or convict
labor.
He and Representative Adamson
called at the white house before going
to the treasury department in person
to inquire about the matter there.
Senator Smith charges that this bill
which was passed through the house
at the instigation of labor leaders, was
framed and engineered really by the
cotton bagglng trust, whose headquaI-
tiers, he says, are in St. Louis. He be-
lieves the enforcement of such a law
would exclude all foreign cotton bag
ging from this country, and put the
cotton farmers of the South in the
hands of the bagging trust.
High prices for bagging last year
are cited by Senator Smith as an il
Illustration of this possibility, as he
says very little foreign bagging came
in then, since it was held back in the
expectation that it would come in duty
free, as it can do under the new ia
riff law.

SACRIFICE THEIR lives TO
SAVE FOUR COMPANIONS
Three Young Men, Unable to Swim, Plunge Into DCIaW
River in Order That Small Boat Might Z
Be LightCDGd

Philadelphia, June 2.-Sacrificing
their lives that the lives of four COM
panions, two of them girls, might be
saved, three young men, none of whom
could swim, leaped into the Delaware
river from a sinking rowboat late yes
terday and were drowned. The story
of their heroism was told today by tn :
survivors. The dead are John Mou-
check, Raymond Tinney and John
Murphy. The saved are George Ger
man, Sarah German, Mary German
and John Neville.
Tinney and Sarah German are en-
gagged to be married. Accompanied by
the other members of the party, they
visited the Jersey side of the river yes
terday in a large row boat They
were more than 100 yards from shore
when it was noticed that the craft
was filing. Despite the efforts of the
, seven occupants to bail the boat with
their caps it soon became evident that
unless the load was lightened the boat
would sink before shore could be
reached.
None of the party could swim, but
all of the men volunteered to jump
/ out. Sarah German begged the Tinney
boy not to risk it, but he was the
