A complaint on behalf of Gallatin,
county seat of Daviess county, was
filed with the public service commits
sion by Mayor Penn Lane and the
Gallatin Commercial Club against the
Rock Island Railroad. An order is
asked to require the Rock Island to
stop all of its fast trains there for
passengers.
There has been complaint at Gala
tin for several years because none of
the fast Rock Island trains made the
stop. The matter was partially ad-
justed when the road agreed to one
fast train each way daily, but now
that order has been annulled. The
compliments insist that Gallatin fur.
nishes the road with sufficient bust
ness to justify the stopping of all
trains.

Afternoon Suits That Are Correct Exponents of Accepted Mode
Airy Headwear for Summer.

Two afternoon suits, n of silk pop
lin and one of taffeta, proclaim them
selves correct opponents of the ac-
cepted mode, but each has something
unusual and chic to boast of.
In the suit of bronze taffeta at the
right 1t is the clever use of shirrings
that gives it its bit of distinction. The
skirt is extra full and is shaped into
the waist with parallel rows of shir-
rings set close together. This man
agement of the skirt is familiar
enough, but the same idea introduced
in the coat is unusual. A short yoke
