The men Of Topeka are not accus-
toned to attending afternoon parties,
and whenever they are invited to such
affairs. the unfailing question il what
to wear. Their wives are usually more
agitated than they are about Il. ana
anxious women have asked I don't

men should dress for the tea-dance
Saturday afternoon. The hostesses. Miss
Wear and Miss KO0ntz, have decreed
that the men are to wear their busi-
ness suits and that they may go from
their offices to the party. The women
will wear afternoon gowns and will
probably be rather simply dressed in
keeping with the clothes the men are
expected to appear In.
All the newest dances are to be per-
formed by the two young people from
Kansas City. They are society people
of that place who are now doing dam
cling professionally at the fashionable

Taylor, brother of the latter, and
Oscar Larson, husband of a woman
living downstairs in the house, were
in police court today. Larson had

and besides had to pay fine OF

wife, but had accused w. c. Taylor
of undue familiarity with her. When
he went to the house last night

were strangers, Larson's advance

Fine Work Is Being Done On
Roadway In Direction
Of Tracy
kaie Auioisis Made The Trip
Yesterday; Pleased With
Work Done

Nearly two hundred miles were
covered by the Mankato automobilists
yesterday in their trip to Tracy and
return over the Black and Yellow
trail. The trail for about half the
way shows the result OF much intel
ligent work. and the latter part OF
the way toward Tracy Is being i'm
proved according TO the state en-
gineers specifications, and work Is
In progress. The highway Is to be
very wide and will be much like a
city street when completed. All
culyerts and bridges are being build
OF concrete, and the road is to be
very we'll drained at the sides.
All stages of work were In pro
gress from Springfield to Tracy, and
the tourists did not make very good
time from the fact that three or
four crews OF road makers were
working along the highway and
there had been much grading and
gravel hauling dohe. Four or FIVE
culverts and small bridges were out
so that the drivers took to the ditch
es at the sides OF the road in order
TO pass. But with all of this incon-
venience no accident occurred and
everyone went through the entire
trip without a mishap.
First Stop at New Ulm.
The first stop made was at New
Ulm, and because the people at
New Ulm did not expect the party
until ten o'clock or after, there was
some delay in making the speeches.
A crowd OF about two hundred peo-
pie gathered soon though and lis
tened to several good road talks.
Judge Lorin Cray presided and @.
A. Ottomeyer, president of the New
Ulm Commercial club gave the ad-
dress of welcome. Mayor A. D. Frit.
sche also spoke telling how essen
tial roads were to farmers and
business men as well. Dr. Fritche
said that he had travelled far enough
