FOR ABOLITION OF POLYGAMY.
Provision in the Philippines Bill
Changed by Senate Committee.

The Senate Philippines committee
yesterday decided that instead of
sbolishing polygamy in the PhilIppins
islands forever" as provided in the
pending Philippine bill, II should he
abolished hereafter" This course was
taken after the committee had listened
TO a solemn warning from Mrs Caro-
line S. Spencer, who recently returned
10 the United States after spending
seven months among the Moros in
Jolo.
Mrs. Spencer told the committee that
serious trouble would result If the
Cnited States undertakes to interfere
! with the polygamous relations of the
Moros at this time. She said that the
; Philippine bill as agreed upon would
be construed move to break nm
existing family ties. and that blood
shed would follow any effort to en-
force the measure. She thought the
prohibition of future polygamous mar
riages feasible. The committee adopt

Unusual Erect In Sash Ribbon.
Something a little out of the ordin.
airy was displayed recently on an
imported model, the idea being SO
simple Is to be easy Of duplication,
says the New York Sun. A wide black
satin sash ribbon encircled the waist
and closed invisibly at one side. At
each side Of the front a pair Of long
eyelets were embroidered in black.
They we're about three inches long
and a space OF about five inches was
loft at the center of the sash between
the eyelets. Similar eyelets were EN-.
broidered at the back.
A strip Of turquoise and silver bro.
cade was slipped through the front
eyelets, bringing the color over the
black in the space between the eyelets
and giving the effect of some rare
jeweled ornament. The ends were
then slipped out through the eyelets
at the back and one end thrown over
the other. The advantage Of this ar.
rangement Is that the inner sash can
be easily changed and variety given
to an otherwise ail.black gown.
