Thieves Then Break Into Gro

TOOK THEIR Time At IT
Put on Chains and OvercOats

Second Bold Automobile Rob-
berry in Two Days.

Automobile thieves appear to be
busy in Topeka. The Hudson touring
car belonging to H. S. Morgan, of 1885
Harrison street. was stolen last night
from the garage in the rear OF 1O34
Harrison street. The machine was a
six cylinder car, 81 horse power, of 1913
model The factory number of the car
is 45.C44; the Kansas state license tag,
No. 379.
Morgan put the machine in the ga
rage at $3.50 o'clock last night. Ne1gn-
bors heard two men talking by the ga
rage about II o'clock They were speak
ing in an undertone and few minutes
later drove the car out of the garage.
No lights were lit on the machine.
The thieves put on chains before tney
left, showing that they contemplated a
cross country trip. The paddock on the
garage was broken.
few minutes later the Benner gro
Gerry store at Sixth and Clay street, had
$40 worth of gasoline taken. 1t is prob
able that it was taken by the same
parties. Two robes and an overcoat
were left in the car and missing this

to $1,000
At O'Clock this morning, persons in
v-akarusa reported that an automobile
answering the description given by
Morgan passed through the town.
The new Ford machine was stolen in
broad daylight Wednesday in front OF
the Santa Fe offices. Earlier that
morning, Case touring car. belonging
to Kansas City insurance man. was
left in front of the Santa Fe office build
ing after it had been stolen in Kansas
City. One theory advanced Thursday
was that the two fellows seen getting
out Of the Kansas City car early
Wednesday, were the same parties who
went away with the Ford. 1t is posi-

it With well poised lightness and grace,
and with an occasional touch Of deeper
feeling.
Americans are usually grateful to
hear their own composers in the con-

music in his recital Cornelius Van
Welt placed on his program two COM
positions. by Edward Mcdowell, q
descriptive piece. "A Deserted Farm,
and ono of the most charming things
from his pen, ITO Water Lily"
Closing the program was L. Pop
per's "Tarantella," in which the only
real technical display of the evening
was given. 1t was delivered with be-
wildering skill, and it is significant of
the character Of the artist that With
his powers Of execution, he chooses
his programs SO persistently with ref
erence to the musical worth, beauty
and emotional interest of his num-
bers. 1t speaks well for his heritage
Of ideals from the little Netheriaud
nation that has kept its art standat DIS
pure through the centuries. His play
ing sets forth the groces OF warmth
and poetic charm, artistic temperi-
ment, judgment and experiece.
Responding to encores he played
Gossec's "Gavotte," a Debussy num-
Der and a Beethoven Minuet. 1t is to
be regretted that with tho wealth OF
material that he evidently possesses,
he should have answered his last en-
core with so hackneyed a number as
"Traumerei.' 1t gave a fieeting sus-
gestion that the artist was making a
concession to an audience that de-
manded something familiar"

who heard him and those who did not,

not long enough to give its hearers

He opened his program with a
sonata, written by Valentine in the
early years Of the eighteenth century.
His second number was "Elegie," by
Schravezande, a composition of genu-
inc fullness and beauty of tone in its
sustained moments, and in the same
group he played Jerars Polonaise Fan
tastique, a number in bright contrast
to the preceding one, which he en-
dowed with abundant interest.
Following his rendering of Laclair's
"Sarabande," there was a significant
hush before the applause. that was

Roosevelt, after speaking here Thurs

A second gown, on the same general

FASHION NOTES
OF INTEREST

IN a general way, Il may be said that
for all afternoon and morning occa-
sions, the coat suit is the prevailing
costume, although long coats and
coats Of fur are much worn over
gowns Of velvet and of heavy silk, Of
broadcloth, and Of various other ma
teriaIs. Whether or not the military
influence that is in the air, has had
It's effect, the tailored suit is a COM
parativeiy simple creation this season.
The over-elaborate, dressy costume
that has been put forth under such
name during the past few years, is not
conspicuous. While a great deal Of
fur trimming is used and while braid
Of every kind is in evidence, there is
certain air Of simplicity, and that sim
plicity always means handsome and
distinctive result.
At first glance, the thought is that
everything flares, that from being
straight and narrow, we have suddenly
grown voluminous, for In one way or
another, in the coat, in the tunic or In
The skirt breadth, width and ripple
effect Is 20 be found. Bus while this IS
true, q second glance assures recogni-
ton Of the fact that In many instances
women are cIingins to straight lines,
for they are Ioathe to give up all the
slenderness which II has taken years
to achieve. A very handsome coat
suit seen during an afternoon session
was for example, made Of black broad
cloth with narrow skirt and oddly
shaped tunic, and the tunic was laid
in many plaits. Consequently, when
the wearer walked, there was much
flare and breadth, but when she stood,
there were straight lines preserved.
The coat extended only a little below
the waist-line, but hung in straight
lines and was trimmed with collar
and cuffs Of blue fox, while the accom-
panying hat was a real "tricorne" with
crown Of silver brocaded velvet with
lp-turned brim Of plain velvet banded
with fur Of the same sort. An exceed
ingly handsome suit was made Of COM
bined broadcloth and baby lamb vel
vet in a wonderful shade Of mole, the
skirt or as much Of the skirt as could
be seen was made Of the fur velvet

with long iaring tunic Of the cloth
and the coat again was a short one Of
the velvet to match the skirt, with
sleeves Of cloth. for this is a season
Of contrasting sleeves, and these
appear In the coat suits Of more
elaborate sort as well as in the gowns.
Beaver is more conspicuous than it
has been in many years. A very
elegant costume Of green velour de
laine was made with circular skirt
finished with a wide band Of beaver
fur and a coat that hung in straight
lines to below the hips where IL was
finished with a full skirt forming a
deep band at each side and this skirt
was edged with narrow band Of the
beaver, the same fur being used for the
cholSer collar and wide cuffs. CholSers
are unquestionably feature, and that
they are becoming is true. but whether
comfortable or not under mild weather
conditions, must be left for each
wearer to decide for herself. A COS
tune that gives evidence Of the pre-
vailing military effect and at the same
time is far from being severe, was made
Of velours In a really wonderful shade
Of blue with trimming Of opossum
bands. and with real Bradenburgs
closing the simple coat. while above
the fur the tunic was richly embroid-
cred in subdued colors. The skirt in
this instance was narrow and plain,
the tunic full and much Jared, but
open at the sides IN a rather unusual
way, and the fur was approximately
four inches In width and the embroid-
cry above perhaps a little more. The
coat was the almost inevitable one for
suits Of the kind, simple, plain, but
taking straight lines under the arms,
with a band Of fur finishing it at Just
about the hip line, and the choker
and the bands on the sleeves were
also Of fur Fur coats always are
sumptuous and always can be trusted
to appear at the Horse Show, let that
occasion come upon date it may. An
exquisite one that is fairly typical
Of prevailing styles was made Of Per-
sian lamb with trimming of sable, the
body portion being Just loose enough
for comfort with moderately wide
sleeves, but below the waist it spread,
and flafed TO reveal a lining Of rich
white satin brocade. One OF sable
slime made a choker collar. and there

Is Of pailletted net, with plain net
edged with pearl trimming for the
sleeves and the neck finish. The color
is white with crystal and pearl pail
lettes, and there is a big velvet rose
worn az a Earniture. The gown is
one Of the most fashionable that could
be shown, extremely dainty and useful, 4
quite within the reach Of any home
dressmaiSer. The hounces are straight
and gathered, arranged over a two
piece foundation. The little under

The brooades Of the season are mar
velously lovely. They show the richest
colors and many Of them show metal
threads, but while exceedingly rich In
effect, they are soft and pliable. The
third costume Of the group shows one
in combination with lace houucing.
The Aouncing makes a straight, shirred
skirt, over which the draped train is
arranged, and the edges Of the train
meet at the front to give an overslkirt
suggestion. The basque is one Of the
daintiest garments possible, shirred
over a foundation that holds its
gathers to position and with short.
pretty, full sleeves.
Velvet would be handsome in place
Of the brocade, or plain satin, or any
material Of the sort, and chiffon velvet
or charmeuse satin are much used for

were two bands Of equal width on each
sleeve, with a brush finishing each,
and at the low waist-line was arranged
entire skins that formed a belt. Be-
meath the coat was 20 be seen a skirt
Of black velvet, and there was a tiny
little toque Of soft pliable fur with
trimming Of paradise. Almost By It's
side, was seen a costume Of heavy
faille silk in a wonderful shade Of
chestnut brown with trimming Of
brown fox. The skirt was circular,
generously fared and banded with
fur. and the coat was in half length,
with fur at It's lower edges. But in this
instance, In place Of collar was worn
a fur scarf, although bands Of fur fin
ished the close fitting sleeves. The
hat was again a tiny little close-6tting
turban, with two little feathers that
dropped coquettishly at the back Of
the hat, in place OF standing upright.
Beneath the fur coats were worn a
great many dresses in what is known
as the Moyen Age style, and velvet is
unquestionably a favorite for such,
although velvet is often combined with
other materials. A beautiful gown
seen during an evening session, was Of
the favorite faille silk in a rich shade
Of green, with trimming Of skunk, and
the important feature unquestionably
was an overdress or tuhic in the real
Moyen Age style, for it was cut with
round neck and without sleeves, and
was made much after the manner Of the

THE present is a season Of very
marked variety in fabrics EN-
ployed for evening gowns. On
the one baud we see the richest and
the most sumptuous brocades and on
the other the lightest and flmiest
nets and similar materials, but
whether brocade or net. silk or satin.
is chosen, lace Is largely employed
in combination, and there is a very
marked tendency toward the use Of
scintillating beads as trimming. The
beads are employed to finish edges;
they are applied over stamped de-
signs to outline a border or give a
conveutionalized flower effecti and
pailIettes are sewed all over thin ma
terial to produce a superbIy brilliant
result.
In a general way, it is to be noted
that the bodies are to be finished over
the skirts, but for the younger con-
tiugent, at least, the swathing sash or
girdle is much used. and In conbina-
ton with that the finish may be
either over or under, since the edge
Of the waist and the edge Of the skirt
are entirely hidden from sight.
For the dance, skirts are made Of
comfortable length. For the dinner
and the opera. trains are liked but
the favorite train Of the season Is cut
separately and is arranged over the
complete skirt 10 place Of making a
part thereof.
At the extreme left Of the picture lie
shown a young girls dancing frock. 1t
is an extremely dainty creation made
Of pink silk tulle over white lace, and
is trimmed with pink rosebud band
ing. The girdle Is Of charmeuse satin,
also pink. The skirt is a very simple,
very attractive one, the foundation
being in two pieces Of satin with the
lace houncing over it, while the tunic
is straight and gathered. It can be
left plain as in this instance or draped
at the left side. The bodice tells its
own story. II desired for daytime
use, it can be made with yoke and
undersleeves.

skirt is being worn this winter and
founces are especially charming IN
