SEEK FORTUNE OF
 THE GYPSY QUEEN

Waterbury, June 15-At the time of the death of Queen" Tryphena McNei1l of the McNein tribe of gyp sies in this city, in April of last year, it was supposed that she had large sums of money. Great quantities of it were reported to have been found in an old trunk at the gypsy camp. The guardian of the Queens minor daughter, Gladys McNein, recently appointed at Perth Amboy, N. J., to take the place as such of Samuel Me Neill, husband of the deceased con sort, is now endeavoring to locate all this wealth.
 In their search for the elusive coin Perth Amboy attorneys have now come to Waterbury and retained At torney U. G. Church to represent them in this city. A general garnish- ment of all local banks in which it is thought that Samuel McNeil may have deposited the money is now be- ing made.
 Gladys McNein, the daughter, re- gently renounced the life of a gypsy and made known her desire to obtain an education and live life of refine ment and comfort.
 A few days after the Queens body was removed from this city to New Jersey for burial, King Samuel made his appearance at the receiving tell CTS window at one of the local banks and put a stocking full of money be- fore the bank clerks eyes that a1- most caused the clerk to cry for help. Bills of all denominations, ranging from ones to f1fties and century notes were in the roll and some of them dated back to the Civil War. It was reported at the time that there was close to $20,0O0 in the roll, but this report is said to have been exagger- ated to some extent. Queen Tryphena made the entire fortune in telling for tunes.
 According to reports from New Jersey, King Samuel N1cNei11 isn't of the same thrifty nature as his queen. Last week the New Jersey lawyers came to Waterbury and found out where some of the money was on de- posit and immediately took steps to prevent the father from drawing any more money from the bank. There was still a balance of the McNeill account at the bank, the lawyers learned.

THERE Is no more obstinate
prejudice in the world than that

knowledge there has never been a
time when adverse criticism. in fact
wholesale COMBINATIONS, have been
more ruthlessly flung at fashions
than is the case at present. This
seems decidedly unfair to me. Why,
because some designers choose 20
rush into extremes and inartistic ex-
pressions, condemn without due con-
sideration the possibilities OF a
vogue?
Women have suddenly arrived at
the conclusion that bouffant draper
les distort the figure and rob 1t OF
it's natural grace of line. This is
largely true, but this sudden outcry
against crinolines and panniers
seems ridiculous when we consider
that every other fashionable woman
has elected to wear them and en-
couraged the couturiers to use yards
Of horsenair wadding, and feather
bono hoops to distend her frock a
few inches further than the most ex-
treme model.
Then suddenly her sense OF The
esthetic received shock as her
much-crinolined sister waddled past
and she saw herself as "ithers" saw
her.
Straightway she went on a, ram
page and demanded that her cot'
turier design frocks whose graceful
lines would enhance the charms oil
her person. She fatty refused to be
ridiculous any longer, forgetting that
she had once worn balloon sleeves,

Of the human form quite as much.
Aeeentuating Natural Beauty.
But the designers have risen to the
occasion and a new silhouette Is the
result. The newest creations of thor
sartorial art are gowns whose Chief
charm lies in the graceful draping Of
the materials. to accentuate, the
natural beauty of the feminine form.
In some Of the handsomest designs
the draperies start from the Shout,
ders and fall in long, sweeping lines
TO the feet, while in others the waist

les. are hung from this point. The
