Affairs In road financing in New York,
most engineers and nnauciers agree.
In 1865 tho towns II Morrieania, West
Farms and Yonkers wero authorized to
issue tto.000 worth OF per cent bonds,
payable only at tho rate of $1,000 worth
4 year. for road building This seemed
all right hut Tho uoat year some one
amended the law SO that Instead OF Ia
allowed TO issue bonds FOR 'suoh sums
AS may bo necessary"
Morr,san'a and West Farms irma-
d,atelv put out together s39O5OO worth
Of thssn per cent bonds. About one
third Of ,hcm were to mature IN 1850
aud the rest wont mature until the year

being covered by shining meshwork Of silver in lace-like design.
 Another marvel of design and manufac- ture which will be quite ideal for deeply swathed sash is so curiously patterned with broad stripes as to be really almost sug- gestive of flag!
 And verify, 1t is worthy to be adopted and waved aloft as the Flag of Fashion.
 For in it black gives place to vivid carna- ton pink, and this again to mandarin yell low; while, after dividing line of black, there comes a broad banding of real tur- quose blue, gleam of the green of emer- aids being also introduced, and each and every lovely color being so closely inter- woven with gold that they simmer and glow with every movement, till at last there blazes out a great stripe of brilliant gold tinsel which runs the whole length of the fabric across those other stripes which take so many different directions and sometimes form sort of half square.

being typieal collection of contrasts.
 For though as regards their outer color ings a somewhat subdued scheme of repres- sion may and will be, the hallmark of Fashion, we must needs break out into a riot of shadings somewhere so much have we grown to love brightness during the color orgies of the last two or three seasons
 And so it is that the Things and the sashes and other such additions and details are so designed as to amply satisfy our re. qurements in this direction, and, what IS more, to display themselves in an equally attractive aspect in whatever way they may be arranged
 There Is, for instance, one glorious me tallic brocade in the brightest sapphire blue so lnterwoven with silver as just to show haunting simmer every now and again through it's clustering roses of dull gold and purple and pink But, reverse it. and the suggestion becomes definite and decorative reality, the whole beautiful blue background

The Gate That Is Sealed Against the Prnce of Peace"

YF a Holy War results from the
 present conflict in Europe, one
 of the principal objects of the Christian nations will be to wrest the Holy City from the possession of the Turks.
 One of the most sacred spots in the Holy City is the Golden Gate, To- cated on the east of Jerusalem, and shown in the accompanying illus tration.
 It was through this Gate that Christ entered Jerusalem riding on an ass over branches strewn in the road by . multitude crying. Blessed is He that cometh in tie name of the Lord!"
 Long ago, the Moslems sealed up the Golden Gate, believing that as the Saviour had entered Jerusalem through it before, He would use it again on His return.
 III ulieT flSSdu Olg0L or Jeru- salem' an interesting account of the Golden Gate is given. After describ- ing other gates on the eastern side of Jerusalem, this well-known writer says:
 Next followeth the Golden Gate (not mentioned in Scripture but merely depending on human au- thority), so called because gilt all over, vulgar beholders (who carry no touchstones in their eyes) &C., counting all massy gold which is richly gilded. Roman authors add. that when our Saviour, in an humble but solemn equipage, rode on an ass colt to the temple, this gate opened unto him of its own accord, a pretty proportionable fiction. For, if the iron gate opened to Peter, disciple, no less than a Golden Gate could offer entrance to Christ, his Master, Only here's the differences: We re- ceive the one as recorded in Scrip. ture, and refuse the other as not re.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-09-20

ported therein, especially our Saviour having so fair an occasion to make mention thereof. For when the Pharisees questioned Him for not silencing the children's hosannahs, and when He returned, that If they would immediately cry out how would immediately cry out" how easy had it been for Him to add that the very walls of the city had ale ready opened their mouths (their gates) to receive Him.
 But whatever doubt there may be as to the Golden Gate having opened of its own accord to receive the Master, there is no doubt at all that His entry into Jerusalem was through this portal. Hence, the per- formancs of the Turks in sealing it up."
 The Mount of Olives, also seen in the accompanying illustration, has undergone many changes since sacred times. There are few olive trees there, but they seem out of place, for the hill has long since been en- cumbered with modern buildings. A Russian tower has been erected in the vicinity of the Golden Gate.
 The Garden of Gethsemane lools like some modern adjunct to a. country villa. Franciscan fathers have shored up some of the more venerable olive trees, and iron rail- lngs and wire netting here and there give the sacred region pronounced Please keep of the grass" aspect, which IS somewhat incongruous.
 Describing the new Jerusalem. Robert Kitchens, the novelist, re- centlye declared: "I see before me various pallors: whites. yelows. vel low grays, yellow browns, pinky reds. pale dust, pale mud, pale puddles. Whitehead men in yellow, moving With an air of combined defiance and surreptitious servifity along roads that look suburban. between large, light. colored, new houses"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-09-20

Which matches the cloak of the same ma terial. The wrap is heavily trimmed with blue-gray fox furs
 The charming little toque is one of the new feather tocques which were about to become the rage in Paris. It is made LID of the entire body of the green parrot with outspread wings, shot in blue and green The head of the bird is low at the back of the neck.
 This use of the feather toque was one of the signs of season in which even more brilliant fashions than last seasons were to prevail.
 Taffetas, by the way, had been granted further lease of life--ins black for evening wear, and navy blue for daytime occasions
 Molre of the specially supple texture which is now the most necessary quality of every fabric, is also to be noted down among the 'surviyals,' though it will be very frequently just relegated to the lining of coats and cloaks, more especially when it Is patterned with stripes in such daringly entrusted colors as sapphire blue damask rose and emerald green all gathered to- gether on black ground. An even more imposing array of colors in Roman stripes on black or dark blue moire grounds will also figure as Things and trimmings-black, Cobalt blue, Indian red, beige and pale gold

"v HE war, dreadful as it is, will have it's 4 measure of opportunity for America.
 There are no fashions now in Paris, nor will there be any this season
 Paris will be again, and Paris fashions will be again, no matter how the great strug- gle ends. But in this suspended season is an opportunity for the American woman There is no reason why she should not ere ate national school of fashions while she is free, for a time, of suggestions from the boulevards.
 These new models of mine I call Ameri- can fashions, because they are some of those I designed after the gates of Paris had closed.

MORRIS MOVEMENT
FOR BAR OPP OSED
Democratic State Chairman Favors
"Wet" Club, but Starts
Democratic Row

An interesting aftermath of the re-
quests made of liquor dealers by DEM
ocratic State Chairman Roland s.
Morris for cash for the Democratic
campaign fund has come from Phila-
delphia, where it appears from news
papers that the recommendation OF
Morris and some friends that bar be
reopened in a club has caused a row.
The Philadelphia Record of to-day
says: "A special meeting of the DEM
ocratic Club has been called at the
request of twenty-five members for
tonight to protest against the renom-
ination of State Chairman Roland S.
Morris, Harry ID. Wescott and e. B.
Seymour, Jr., that the bar be re-
opened. Messrs. Morris, Wescott and
Seymour were recently appointed u
committee to devise means to finance
the club. In opposing the wet move
ment of the Morris committee, Presi-
dent Hosllins has written to members,
in part as follows: The audit just
completed of the eight months that
liquor was sold in the club shows an
average monthly loss of forty to fifty
dollars. 1t added no strength to tho
club, drove many good members out,
