special Correspondence OF Ihe star.
NEW YORK, July 31.-The fashion
for stripes has gone SO far that we mo-
mentarily expect them to appear in
underwear. No garment is safe from
them.
When the American public gets hold
of style that it likes there is no tell
ing to what lengths it will be carried.
1t is often doomed, unfortunately. by
this very zealousness. 1t is not in hu
man nature to continue to like and use
a vivid style that makes every one
seem to have the same opinion con-
corning dress.
There are certain elements of fash
ion that never tire people because
they are fundamental. A blue serge
frock or suit, for instance, goes steadi-
ly on through the decades as a possess
sion of Importance. Rarely does any
caprice of fashion Guido it. And rarely
does any other fashion contribute more
to the smartness of woman's appear
ance. She feels safe and sane in blue
serge or gabardine in a sea of uncer-
tainty, in a maelstrom of conflicting
currents.
The price for blue serge has neither
lowered nor risen through the years to
any appreciable extent for this reason.
One pays good price for it today, as
when it first loomed above the horizon
as a steady companion.
One might say the same in olden days
of the favoritism shown to broadcloth,
and in still more ancient times to gros-
grain silk, yet neither of these fabrics
has any especial standing among the
fashionables today Will blue serges
also become has been? If there is
a glimmering thought of this, then let
US cling to it while we may.

are universal this summer IN all de-
partments of dress and, naturally, they
appear frequently in the striped ma
terials, but no one avoids vivid color as
it was rumored that they would do.
True, they do not exploit it in large
sections; they concentrate it in minor
matters, but the ensemble is colorful.
At any gathering Of women the eye
is met by blaze of brillancy, and it
takes most of the time to pick out the
why's and wherefores of it; after a
while one finds that it is in waist
coats, in sweaters and in various kinds
of girdles: whether or not the fashion
for colored boleros and hip sashes
comes about through peasant or Turk
sh influence. no one in power will tell:
probably they don't know; certainly
they don't care.
There are those who prefer the flow
cred cretonne to the striped awning
cloth for a touch of color. and others
who, quite tired of all the so-called
garden effects prefer q good quality
of silk or satin for these colorful ac-
cessories. The sketch shows the use of
a heavy, durable weave of silk in black
and white stripping which is made into
La neatly fitted bolero edged with large
pearl buttons that are not intended as
fasteners, a sleeveless affair that car
res a Louis XIV collar without revers,
and wide sash that encircles the hips
in the way made familiar by fancy
dress costumes.
AS for sashes, they are amboyant. Of
that there is no doubt in the mind of
the spectator, but in the summer time
they are not as Objectionable as in
winter. About that we need not worry.
for I cannot see how the fashion can
last that long, can you?
The Shirt Sleeve Effect.
In all departments of dress there is
an evident desire to make women look
as though they had removed their
coats, but had forgotten to take off
their waistcoats. All blouses of any re-
pute have long sleeves, even though
rumor had it that American women
would never accept them in hot wealth
er, and the majority of blouses carry
sleeveless garments of some kind over
them.

''Pearce" Declares Frank
Holt Was His Partner
By Associated Press

New Orleans, La, July 12.-The let
ter received by newspaper here last
night signed "Pearce" declared the
writer intended to kill ]. P. Morgan
and Cir Ceoil Spring-Rice the British
Am mbassador, and finish the work OF
Eric Muenter, who committed suicide
several days ago after wounding Mr..
Morgan 1t warned persons who had
friends or relatives aboard the Brit
ish steamships Howth Head and Baron
Napier, which sailed from New Or
leans July 8, with mules for the Brit
ish army, to watch for reports from
those vessels. The letter says:
Holt (Muenter) was my partner
and I glory in the thought of his COM
radeship. We worked together ever
since this cursed war began. Holt is
gone but I am still here, and l am
going to carry on the work the two
of us began. I am going to carry on
the work with redoubled fury.
THE statement that Holt intended
to wreck libraries and other such pub
lie buildings is lie. The Capitol is
the only building that we planned to
wreck and we partly succeeded in our
plan. But what we did plan and what
| am going to carry out, is the just
idea to stop this country from con-
tributing to the damnable, hellish,
barbaric slaughter across the ocean.
British mule ships are daily leav-
ing New Orleans laden with livestock
for the enemies of Germany, just as
ships laden with guns and ammuni-
ton to slaughter Germans are almost
daily leaving New York. Therefore,
this city furnishes a promising field
for the work that lies before. I sue
ceeded in blowing but one British ship
leaving this port-I may succeed in
destroying ten-but am going to
carry out this work and whatever I
achieve will be satisfactory to me.
And then I will be ready for Morgan
and after get through with Morgan.

We're held to-day in st. Patrick's

requiem was celebrated by Bishop
Thomas F. Hickey, of Rochester.
Long before the services opened the
street in front of the Cathedral was
crowded The body of the Archbishop,
clad in full Episcopal vestments. rested
on a catafalque in the chancel. The
casket was draped in black and at
the conclusion of the mass the pail
was removed so that those who wished
might view the body
A delegation of 100 priests and a
number of laymen from Chicago at
tended as we'll as priests from Buffalo,
eastern cities and Canada, memb bers of
sisterhoods and delegations from
various Catholic societies.

Very Rev. NJ. ]. Fitzsimmons, admins
traitor of the Chicago archdiocese,

will be ready to share my pals fate,

I will be ready to share my pals fate,
I consider it a glorious fate.
And Sir Cecil Spring Rice. Do you
want to know whom Muenter Ras
after when he went to Glen Cove?
Morgan? Partly. The real reason
for going to Glen Cove was Sir Cecil
Spring Rice. We
have trailed Spring Rice for weeks
and we are going to get him yet.
This country considers Muenter a
barbarian-a crank. I knew him in
Germany, I knew him in America He
destroyed property and took lives
when he knew that good would follow,
never otherwise. He taught me his
principles. his ideals and as l said be-
fore, glory in his leadership of the
past. He stood ready to risk his own
life to save other lives that he con-
sidered worthy. why, at the time the
Lusitania sailed on her fateful voyage,
do you know who 1t was that warned
Vanderbilt and the rest not to sail
on her? 1t was Eric Muentcr. He
knew what was going to befall this
British liner. He not only sent mes
sages to a large number of people
that he knew were going to sail on
the ship, but he personally appealed to
Charles Frohman not to make the voy-
age.
Just as Muenter appealed to Froh-
HndH, NdnuerDlIt, and the others not
to sail on the Lusitanfa so I now ap-
peal to worthy Americans in this coun-
try not to sail on the British mule
ships leaving this port.
Remember I am Muenter's pupil and
very very seldom has Muenter failed.
Muenter's methods are my methods.
! am working with enough explosives
to wreck this whole town. l have a
program to follow: British ships,
Morgan, Sir Cecil Spring Rice, and
then oblivion. Halle failed completely,
Muenter succeeded partly. I am going
to succeed completely. I am but one
among millions. but have Muenters
backing and-I have dynamite.
If there be any one among the
readers of this. that doubts these
words, let him wait and watch; the
early part of next week will witness
the completion of Muenters plans:
that is, the beginning of the compile
ton. If YOU will look up the records
you will discover the names of two of
His Majesty's ships that have just left
port-perhaps never to return. One of
them is called Howth Head, the other
Baron Napier. Have you relatives on
either of these ships? If you have, I
feel sorry for you If you are an
