Experience Valuable.
Speaking OF Senator Plat, the for
mer President OF the United States
said that he conferred with him on
matters legislative. administrative and
political. because he considered the
Senator's wide experience was yalu-
able. and because he realized that the
organization controlled the legislature
and that the Senator controlled the
organization.

was apt to be an issue between me
and the State Senate IL was advisable
TO go where the power lay. and not to

the bidding OF Mr.. Platt I consulted
Mr.. Platt on all important matters
that came up"
Explained Statement.
The Colonel was asked many ques-
lions about the correspondence which
passed between him and Senator Platt
and which was read during his cross
examination. He tried TO explain to
the jury statements made in CORE
spendence about the franchise tax:
about Barren Island: about appoint
ments; about the architect Trow-
bridge and the chance he wanted to
bid upon government work: about the
breakfast meetings with the senator
and about the disagreement over the
denomination of Governor Hughes
He corrected his testimony about his
campaign fund OF 1904: he claimed as
his own campaign speech in which he
said things about Mr. Barnes.
Tomorrow may be his last day upon
the stand His own counsel said to

THREE iNoUIsITIvE SCOTS.
And How They Happened to Originate
the Jute Industry.

And How They Happened to Originate
the Jute Industry.
James Logic, who is supposed to
know more about jute than any one
else In America, tells in a very in.
teresting way how jute came to be
known to Europe and the west:
'In 1910, ON Saturday afternoon
three Dundee fax spinners were walk
ing to their beautiful residences In
Broughty Ferry, about four miles east
Of Dundee, on the banks of the Tay,
and as usual strolled along the docks
At that time there were several Clip
per line sailing vessels trading With
Dundee in Indian products, principally
grain, linseed, ETC., and on this par
tcular Saturday one of these vessels
was discharging her miscellaneous
cargo, and these canny Scots observed
a fibre in some quantity on the dock
and made inquiry as to what 1t was.
"They were told it was some Indian
product that had been obtained In
Bengal. and was suitable for the dun
mage Of ships. They examined the
fibre a little more carefully and all
thought 1t would be possible to spin
the fibre on their fax machinery. The
result was that Monday morning they
made bee line for the agents of the
ship and asked what they were goins
to do with this waste material.
"They got the reply, We propose
dumping it into the river and when
they expressed wish to experiment
with it they were told they could cart
it away from the dock and were well
come to it If they paid the carriage.
Thus the jute industry started-tor the
fiber turned out to be nothing less than
what we know commercially today as
'jute.' '"-Exchange.

None Complete Without Connected
Rings of coIored Paper.
AS no tree is complete without
chains. several of them should be made
for trimming. The length of each de-
pends entirely on what use is to be
made Of it, so the sizes of the squares
must be governed by the need. In max.
Ing these rings square of paper should
be folded into book by laying the
front edges over on the back ones and
then doubling them again into shutters
Keep on folding and making these
shutters by bringing each edge to the
center crease until the strips are not
more than an eighth Of an inch In
width. Then cut along each crease.
This will give enough pieces to make
six or eight rings from a five inch
square paper. A bit Of paste is put on
one end Of one Of these strips. and a
ring Is made. Through this ring anoth-
er piece is slipped and one end is past
ed to the other. In this way the chain
is made any length desired. II com

red or blue and silver, such q chain is
beautiful.

NEW YORK FASHION
LETTER
Special Correspondence to the Sauk Centre Herald

Christmas is in the air! We are
reminded of its nearness at every
street corner; even the most matter
of-fact among US must feel its spirit
and anticipate it's cheer. Safe and
sane Christmas shopping has been
preached for ages, but, nevertheless,
each year sees the same crowd in the
shops and hears the same question on
every side, what shall I give for
Christmas ?" 1t is easily answered
this year if the intended recipient is
feminine. There are all sorts of wear
;ables that may be laid at the dainty
maids door on Christmas morning to
be received with little exclamations of
delight.
If one has time to tarry moment
or two at the main entrance of one OF
the big shops on one of these busy
afternoons, they will have a revela-
ton in clothes. Serge rules in the
matter of suits and simple frocks;
furs are much in evidence and never
have we had a season when they were
so becoming and so much within the
reach Of all pocketbooks. There are
wide soft collars and cuffs; small
round muffs, and any number of other
accessories which may be made at
home if desired and added to the suit
of serge to enhance its charm and
style. Scarcely suit or frock, pass
ing in and out on it's Christmas mis-
sion, but shows this touch of fur;
braid, too, is having its day on tunic
and coat; one cannot but remark the
wonderful variety in collars and
sleeves. The majority of the suits
show the high collar, and many of the
dresses too, although on GOTTEN Gimp
ses beneath top-coat, and suit-coat, a
dainty, sheer blouse of crepe de
Chine or crepe Georgette with open
throat, dainty in its softness. The
flare is the thing on collars, cuffs,
tunics, coat edges, and skirt hens.
On many of the ripping coats and
skirts, tape holds the ripples grace
fully in place; this tape is arranged
around the lower edge of the lining
and is in the same color; oftimes too
a narrow taffeta or picot-edged rib
bon is used instead of tape.
There is the leg-o'-mutton, the
gauntlet sleeve, in many variations,
the bell-sleeve, the angel sleeve, and
the sleeve gathered at armhole and
wrist. 1t is quite novelty, the sleeve
gathered into the armhole; and it is
true to its old time inspiration, even
to the slight puff at the shoulder.
One of the most graceful sleeves of
all is the gauntlet with wide, tight
fitting cuff, flaring slightly over the
hand. The ugliest hand in the world
must gain in grace with such a cuff.
The full gathered sleeves are partic-
ularly graceful and pretty in the tran
sparent fabrics now so much favored
for sleevs in al sorts of frocks.
The serge coat dress is a general
favorite for shopping and street wear.
A particularly chic model is made
with long, pointed tunic, gauntlet
sleeve, high collar and novel sur
plice closing. Blue serge trimmed
with small braid-covered buttons and
loops and a wide band of Hercules
braid edging the tunic is the most at
tractive combination.
We have always admired the grace
and delightfully."- feminine note in the
