Novelties Of Neekwssr.

Among novelties in nselcwsar f. a
stock Of black satin with a bow at
the front. In a measure, IL -
a revival since stocks have been
worn in previous years but the
element Of novelty in this preseut
exploitation is to be found in the
shaping Of the collars that accompany
the stocks. Some have points Of
moderate width but there b q ten
dency toward the wide ones that ez-
tend well over the shoulders. We will
not come TO the entirely closed neci1s at
once, however, and collars with velvet
bands that can be worn about the
throat in combination with open
blouses make pretty feature. They
are made of fine thin material, net
or lace or organdie, and are wired to
roll away from the face beconingly
though they stand closely against the
neck at the back. There is plain
neck-band Of velvet ribbon with q
pump bow at the front

For the Autumn Bride.

In November the question Of the
bridal costume IL always Of interest
and the all-important gown is sure 20
be influenced by prevailing tendencies.
The past week has seen many and the
next week will SEQ more. A new and
as interesting a costume az any noted
is made with the new haring, circular
train and Aounced skirt. Il is daintily
trimmed, suggestive of the youth Of
the bride whom it is to grace and at
the same time has just a simple dignity
that always should be found IN the
marriage garment. The round skirt
Of soft satin is Aounced to the waist
with silk tulle, the edges of which are
finished with picot or cut hemstitchinH,
The bodice is a quaint little basque Of
charmeuse satin with collar high az
the back aud slightly open at the
front where there is a pretty Ittle
half-low chemisette Of the tulle, and
there are long mosquitaire sleeves Of
the tulle which fall over the hands.
The train Is attached over the shoul-
ders and Is of satin. BY some mar
velous manipulation of cut IL wideus
and flares with careful graduation
until 1t is broad and beautiful as It
falls upon the floor, and it takes the
folds and the lines that only the cir
cular cut achieves. Over it the tulle
veil will fall in soft, full folds, and
this veil is to be arranged over the
head after the manner Of a quaint cap.
The bridesmaids are TO wear the new
tunic or Moyen Age overdress that Is
beautifully simple in cut and both
dignifed and graceful in line. For
this particular wedding the over
dresses are to be made Of white tulle
trimmed with bands Of the net
heavily pailletted with rose-colored
sequins, and these bands are arranged
over the lower edges Of the tunic,
over the V-shaped neck edges and
again over the hips. The under-Slips
are of rose-colored chaTmeuse but
with long full sleeves of the white net,
and the over-garment Is cut with the
characteristic big loose arm-holes that
are edged beads. Both the brides
costume and those Of her attendant
are charming in line, graceful In cut
and beautiful and digni6ed after q
simple manner. The wedding Il eX-
pected to be one Of the most attractive
of the week.

LATEST FASHION NOTES
from the FASHION CENTERS
By MAY MANTON

CIV THAT shall we do withuot
w Parish has become al
most a continuous cry,
yet the answer Is being made on all
sides. We must work and we must
study. We must learn to consider the
sources of fashions as well as the
present demand. We must develop
the art sense as applied to clothing
if we are really to succeed. We must
get away from the purely commercial.
We must study b' aury as well as de-
mand, and if need be we must educate
public taste, but let no one doubt that
we are able to do all these. From
present indications it is probable that
we shall have many of the French de-
signers with us, for a time at least,
and their presence will help us to
achieve the result. We have grown
perhaps a little too dependent on
foreign sources of inspiration. While
we hope and we trust that the great
cities across the sea will return to their
normal conditions before many
months, our own opportunity is never
theless at hand and it is being met
with eagerness, and enthusiasm is
being evinced in many ways. Next
week there will open here in New York
an exhibition of gowns made from
American materials and designed by
American dressmakers. The fact that
this exhibition is sponsored by a
society Of women who are known not
alone for their exquisite taste in dress
but also for their interest in public
affairs renders It of special interest.
When the movement starts from such
sources and Is so efectually mothered,
it must have success. At the moment
we are amply supplied with designs
and suggestions. but other seasons
are coming, and the movement to pre-
pare for them in advance assuredly is
one to be met with welcome and
enthusiasm.

Single Flower, New Fad.

The gown with trained skirt shown
here gives an illustration of the way
IN which fur and fabrics are combined.
The material itself is one of the beauti-
iul crepe satins in ivory white, while
the trimming portions are of net COW
cred over with pearl beads and crystal
sequins; the banding is of soft fox
fur, and the single bright flower gives
a note Of brilliant color. AS a matter
OF course the model could be copied
IN color, and there are many wonderful
shades of rose and blue and violet to h.
found this season, besides the MANY
tones that seem to answer to no mar.
ticular name, yet are marvelously beau
tiful. But white always has a charm
Of its own and the deep red rose against

LimitIess Variety Of Styles.

For the early season we may say
that there is almost limitless variety.
If any one doubts that the draped
gown and the tunic gown and the
faring skirt are all equally fashion
able, let her attend one Of the new
plays and be convinced, for the people
on the stage act as a mirror Of the
latest fashions, and it is interesting
to note that all these variations are
to be found. In the much-talked Of
"Pygmalion," Mrs. Campbell wears
a draped skirt that Is most graceful
in effect and surely emphasizes the
suitability of that toilette for the
dressy afternoon affair, for the dinner,
and occasions of the sort. In another
popular play is to be found one of the
long tunic dresses that bark back TO
Queen d 'Agovert, however much they
may be varied or changed. In another
act of the same "Pygmalion" Mrs.
Campbell appears in a costume Of
white silk crepe that shows a skirt
that is plated to about knee depth,
with deep yoke, and a little bolero
jacket of black net that e richly en-
broidered with silver and brilliants.
We may be quaint and interesting, we
may be picturesque in effect, we may
be simple and severe after the style OF
the Moyen Age, or we may be frankly
modern and conservative and show
only a moderate flare in the cut of
our skirts and still be up to date.

For the Dance.

For dancing nothing is better liked
than an accordion-plaited skirt, and
as matter of course it requires a
material of light weight, but light
weight materials include chiffon, crepe
de chine. nessaline, net and host of
others. The model that is shown
here combines crepe meteore with vel
vet while the under portion of the
blouse is made Of double net and the
material treated in that way is Just
thick enough not to be unpleasantIy
transparent, while it gives a dainty
effect. The velvet, let it be added is
of the military sort that Grapes per-
fectly while it affords a rich and lus-
trous surface. Since skirts of the sort
are always plated by machine such
a gown is an easy one to make at the
same time that it is sure to be sue
cessful and becoming, for there is that
about the graceful plating that rem
ders it adaptable to all figures.

THE present
is a season
of much
interest for many
reasons but
there Is perhaps
no feature that
is more appeal
ing than the use
Of wonderfully
beautiful fabrics.
Dyers and weav-
ers appear al
most to have
outdone them
selves, a n d
materials alone
from a really
ia sci ating
study, while the
way in which
they are used
is picturesque
and fascinating
in the extreme.
Silks are mar
velously soft
and lustrous,
whatever their
weave, eve n
poplins, m DIRE
effects and bro
cades are so
pliable that they
can be draped
and made full
with perfect
success. Velvets
of the military
order, with
beautiful rich
surface are yet
soft enough to
be treated after
the manner of
chiffon material.

His Mother Says She Gives Him Father Johns Medi-

Read His Story

During recent interview. MT. Jo- seph Mercier, of 253 Walker street, Lowell, Mass, said to the writer: My little boy, Clifford, now seven years old, has taken Father Johns Medicine whenever he had a cold or cough, ever since he was two years old, and it has never failed to give good results. We find that the medi- cine stops the wheezing, and he used to cough badly at night and he does not do it when we give him Father Johns Medicine. We believe that Father Johns Medicine gives him in- creased weight and strength, and we know that while taking it he always gains in weight. We would not be without it in the house, and strongly recommend Father Johns Medicine to mothers of children who are weak and run down."

 It is a matter of sincere regret to me that I cannot be present at what I am sure will prove to be a most interesting and profitable conference.
 You ask me. inasmuch as I cannot be with you in person, to write you my views on the question you are to discuss today and this I am glad to do though I am not at all sure that l correctly understand the meaning of the question.
 As you give it to me it is divided into two parts:
 First. To what extent is mem- Der of a press association entitled to a monopoly of news in a commu- nifty?
 Not "Entitled' to Monopoly.
 My answer to this is that no mem Der of any press association can un- der any. conceivable set of conditions be entitled to a monopoly of news in community.
 The question answers itself
 As matter of fact no such monop- oly exists and as an equal matter of fact no such monopoly could exist.
 The news of the world like the news of the vicinity Is open to all , It is utterly impossible to monopo- lize it.

Charleston, w. Va. May 12,-After an alleged personal encounter with Gov. Henry D. Hatfield, his brother in-law. Charles H. Bronson, a member of the West Virginia public service commission, rendered his resignation yesterday to take effect at once.

 Report of Balloting.@
 The report of the balloting was as follows, arranged according to the mem bership vote

mem bers votinga461.
 First Five Elected.


 First Five Elected.
 The first five named were elected and, as will be seen. tne result would have been the same had there been no bond vote.
 For myself I may say that I can see no evidence in receiving 400 out of 461 votes cast that the will of the ajority is being 'trampled in the dust by the bond holders. T
 It is significant also of the width and depth of MT. Irwin's error in this matter that MT. Weiss of Duluth who was reelected is not bond holder at all and neither is Mir. Nor gan of Hutchinson, Kansas who was elected for his first term.
 I will leave to the representations of the other news services the heavy task of proving to you that The As sociated Press has. no monopoly of the news.
 Second Question Unanswered. Coming to the second question "Should not the competitor or sucn a and receive the same news service at a reasonable cost and with the priv ilege of having the nrst cost to him rebated over a term of years?" do not know what is meant by having the privilege of having the first cost to him rebated over a term of years" and so cannot attempt an answer.
 AS to the first part Of the question I think that a competitor has as much right to demand and receive the same news servlce as he would to demand and receive the use of another papers presses, composing room. edi- tors reporters, and every other facil- ity.
 Just as much right and no more And that is absolutely no right at all.

 Resignation Not Accepted.
