In week or so there hung in the
window of Green's place a smart new
coat, 1t was marked:
"Bargain-$25.'
Father saw it. It fitted The price
obviously made it a bargain. He
took it. At the club he was given

laughing and declaring that they
wouldn't have believed it if they had
not seen it," as Rip Van Wrinkle used
to say when his wife forgot to scold.
The son was delighted, and cheerfully
paid the difference in price. a matter
of $25.
But the tale had a sequel. On the
way home the old man met an an.
cient friend, dandified fellow of
about seventy. He saw the overcoat
also and fell in love with it. Said the
old man, his nose for a bargain in

Now I'll never be able to put 1t over

Black and white, it would seem, in
every imaginable combination, is the
paramount feature of the summers
fashions. In heavier materials it is
black and white with the emphasis on
black, and In sheer fabrics 1t is white
and black with white predominant.
The combination in the hands of
those who know how to manage it is
narvelously effective, and something
new and fascinating Is evolved
every day. There never was anything
so cool and crlsp.looking for midsum-
mer wear, and never was anything
more elegant.
Among the most attractive dresses
made in this way there is one having
a skirt of plain white net laid in
double box plaits about the waist. 1t
is bordered at the bottom with band
of black taffeta, and two other bands
are let in the skirt at equal distances
apart. A little taffeta coat with long
sleeves and V-shaped neck is worn
with this skirt. 1t is smartly cut,
with collar high at the back, and
trimmed with many small ball buttons
covered with the silk.
Black and white striped satin made

Glass c directors. these being the
three directors named by the Federal
Reserve Board He is resident of
Round Brook, Somerset county, which
goes into the New York district, and
WILL therefore, become ineligible for
the position in the Philadelphia dis

so eonscientiously followed" de-

in the first degree had been presented
to them.
Judge Martin ordered the release of
Lantinberg on $4,000 bail just after
the killing upon the assertion of
members of the prosecutors staff that
evidence of manslaughter was all
that had developed. AS persons ac-
eused of murder are not let go on
bail, Judge Martin called in Iantin-
berg.
When the concessionaire and his
counsel appeared before Judge Martin
this forenoon, they were told to pre-
sent themselves before Judge Osborne
in the Court of Common Pleas. When
they did so, Judge Osborne said that
he had nothing to say or do in the
matter as no charges we're before
him.

was scheduled, and when this was
told to Judge Osborne he said to
Lantinberg:
"There is nothing l can say to you

Lantinberg and his counsel then
went out.
Around the Court House 1t was said
today that some of the grand jury
resent the instructions given them
by Judge Osborne on Tuesday and
will refuse to change their attitude
in the matter. While no indication of
how they&feel in the matter has come
from them officially, 1t is believed
that Judge Osborne would not have
given the instructions he did on
Tuesday had he not been requested
to do so by the prosecutor or some
member of the prosecutors staff.
Why Judge Martin was ignored in
the matter or whether he was asked
and refused to interfere was another
topic of discussion which occupied
much time. At the police court hear
ing, when Lantinberg was first ar
raigned, the charge entered against
him was manslaughter.
