TURN TO THE RIBBON MODEL
Plateau Hat Suffering From overpop-
uIsrlty, and Is Gradually Being
Discarded.

Like all fashions easy 90 copy, the
plateau hat Is already suffering from
overpopularity. In those districts
where cheapness is essential the little
mIiliner is turning out plateau hats in
the poorest quality Of straw, 1t Is true,
and with the most impossible flowers
at few dollars each. As the death
knell OF the plateau hat has thus been
rung, the more exclusive houses are
turning their attention TO the ribbon
model, hat which needs the master

brtm.
From France the new ribbon hats
are arriving their plated crowns OF
rich MORE. adorned with fantastic yet
beautiful bows, being arranged IN the
most artistic colors and in the most
Intricate manner.
One model made entirely of blue
MORE ribbon about an inch wide has a
four-cornered brim edged with an up
standing fold OF gold lace, and loops of
the ribbon are perched gracefully on
the crown.

TIME FOR PAYMENT
OF TAXES EXTENDED
Lists To Be Compiled After jan
uary 81, and Offered For
Sale March 10.

The time limit for the payment Of
delinquent taxes on real estate has been
extended to January q. During the last
few years January 10 was the last day
on which taxes could be paid. After
January 81 the names Of delinquents
will be prepared in lists, and after ad-
vertisement the property will be offered
for sale at auction.
Real estate taxes were due and paya-
BILE in May. After June a penalty of
per cent a month accrued. BY the pay
ment of the taxes plus the penalty be-
fore January 81. owners will not only
save the property from tax sale, but
will avoid the publication Of their
names In the list of delinquents. The
sale will begin March 10 and continue
until March II.
The property is sold by auction to the
highest bidder, and II no bids are offered
is sold to the District. c. c. Rogers,
Collector Of Taxes, today called atten-
ton to the feature of the law by which
the District acquires the property, snd
which he declares is defective. The
principal defect in the present law, It Is
declared, is that a tax lien cannot be
enforced by the District.
The District now holds many tax liens,
but Is powerless to go further in the
way Of collecting taxes for the reason
that the District cannot go into court to
have the matter adjudicated.

broadly intimated that the Secretary OF

debts and to enhance his own oppor-
tunities.
