Organizes in High Favor.

Some Of the lovellest frOcks
of the summer are Of Organdie.
Organdle lends itself we'll to the
billowy effects In fashion and
yards and yards Of the crisp,
sheer fabric go into ruffles,
fOunces, pufings and shlrrings
for the new Organdie dresses.
An Organdle frock for a young
girl has a skirt eight yards
around, tucked from hem to belt
by hand; the bodice Is also
tucked across to match and the
sleeves are little puffs with
shand-hemmed rhffies. The conn
plete effect is delightfully."- girl
lsh and charming. There Is
youthfulness also In a second
Organdie frOck, a model with
rows Of shlrring around the
hips. Only a slender, girlish fig
ure could stand this very bout
FAINT frOck. with It's full, gath

AS a result of this confused Condi-
tion it is difficult to encounter any cit
izen willing to admit he possesses
gold money, for fear that it will be
confiscated. Passengers en- route south

the de facto government has purchas-

CHAIRMAN HAY FAILS
TO PLACE JUDGE CARSON
Place In Judge Advocate Generals
Department Is Given to Mai.

Efforts Of Chairman Hay Of +h.
House military committee to insur. IN.
appointment Of his friend, Judge Car
son of Virginia and the Philippines n
a lieutenant colonelcy in the 1uds. ad-
vocate generals department of tbe
army apparently have failed for tbe
time Being. Not long ago there w.s
a vacancy in that grade in the tpaee
advocate generals department, to which
Judge Carson was eligible under tb.
terms Of the special legislation in his
case. President Wilson failed how
ever, to avail himself of the prixi,ey.
of appointing the civilian to the
vacancy and, instead, directed the pro-
motion Of Maj. Walter A. Bethel of the
judge advocate generals department to
the higher grade. The nomination of
Maj. Bethel was sent to the Senate
and yesterday that body confirmed it
In case another vacancy occurs in the
grade of lieutenant colonel in the law
department of the army Judge Carson
Will be eligible for the appointment
within the discretion of the President
1t is held at the War Department that
the legislation in favor of Judge Car
son merely authorized the appointment
Of the person described. but not. named
but did not make it mandatory! There
are but three lieutenant colonels in the
judge advocate generals department
and no prospects of a vacancy occurring
in a regular way for a long time.
