Miss Chandler cut down her opponents
lead of three holes when she took advantage
Of Mrs Fox's three puts on the fourth
green. This advantage was lost on the
next hCde when Miss Chandler sliced into
the rough and required six TO reach the
green on the sixth hole Miss Chandler
lost great opportunity when she smothered
an iron shot into trap above the green
after Mrs. Fox managed to just reach the
edge of the green on her third shot ,
Then came the two holes where the RUM
ner-up gave a fash of the play that defeated
Miss Caverly yesterday. TSking advantage
of the champions mistakes, Miss Chandler
annexed the seventh and eighth skied
drive landed in the creek guarding the
ninth green and the rally was over. Mrs.
Fox drove into trap to the jeff OF the
green and played a miracle out that stop

Miss Chandler had great chance to cap
ture the tenth when she pitched a fine third
TO the green. Mrs. Fox had topped her
third. but the ball banged against the face
Of the bunker and skidded Over to the
edge of the green. Then Miss Chandler
scattered three puts all over the green, and
became 4 down once more. The eleventh
was won 10y the champion when her second
shot died about ten feet from the hole and
Miss Chandler sCudded her third across
the green.
on tine next hole the loser topped her
third try into the rank underground and
was slipping fast and on the thirteenth
the match was brought to a finish when
Miss Chandler failed to get out of the shal.
low trap to the left of the green on her
second shot when Mrs Fox was dead for a

and the gallery burst into applause as the
veteran golfer ran down the putt that gave
her the title for the fifth time She first
became champion fifteen years ago when
she had her name engraved on the cup

In whatever direction your face be
turned, whether to the skating fields
or toward the land where the palms
grow, or midway between, fashion de-
crees that you shall carry bags to
match your millinery. And if you
stay at home, not one but several bags
will be required to see you through
the everyday affairs of life in the ap-
proved way. There is a bag for every
thing, and bags within bags, and no
telling just what they all contain.
Each one has reason for its exist
ence besides the all-important one of
complying with the mode.
Three aspirants for the favor Of
discriminating women are shown in
the picture. AT the left a bag of vel
vet and fur is part of a smart skating
set, with Il cap of the same materials
and short fur neckpiece. In this
bag velvet is gathered on to wide
band of fur to form the top, and it is
drawn up by narrow satin ribbon which
forms loops for carrying it.
At the left bag made of plush is
shaped so that the handle slips over
the wrist. The opening is closed by a
narrow band of the plush which slips
up or down as required. An ornament

just sparkling enough to express Joy,

In the center of the group Palm
Beach set is shown for those who
turn their backs upon the ice and
snow to bask in Southern sun and
wear marvellous sports clothes. The
soft hat and bag are made of blue and
gold faille silk, sewed with blue and

sells. These tassels are fastened to
the hat and bag with snap fasteners.
Why? Because the hat and bag are
reversible and may be worn with the

Whichever way, the blue and gold tas-
sells make them complete.

bottom of the overskirt reach only
little below the top of these fiounces.
and are defined by spangles. Except
for small pannier drapery at each
side the overskirt hangs in straight
lines from the waist. For short
figure this drapery would better be
dispensed with.
An underbodice of net is gathered
by two rows of shirring into a round
neck and has elbow sleeves finished
with silver-run lace. The satin over
bodice is merely n length of the ma
terial drawn about the figure and

rows of spangles define its lower
edge.
About the top of the satin bodice

ribbon proves that 1t is the unexpect-

TAX0F 100000 ASKED
FROM BENEFicIARIES OF JOHN II.
HARsEck ESTATE.
Sues in New York on Property
Valued at SIS 1000 900.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Boulder, Colo.-Suit against the ben
eficiaries of the will of the late John
H. Harbeck, Colorado and New York
multimillionaire, to recover approx
mately 100000 alleged to be due this
state as inheritance tax, was filed in
New York by Leslie Hubbard, state in
heritance tax commissioner.
Hubbard claims to have affidavits
by which he can prove that Harbeck
was a resident Of Colorado at the time
of his death, Nov. 8, 1910. II he es-
tablishes this point the bulk of the es-
tate will come under the laws Of this
state. When Harbeck died the estate
was appraised at 1904 .02O.s7. Many
OF the stocks have since become war
brides, and it is estimated that the es-
tate will now reach $15.O00.00O in
value.
William H. Harbeck, nephew; Mrs.
Kate Harbeck, the widow; Albert 8.
Carr James, as beneficiaries, are made
defendants in the suit filed by Hub
bard. The specific amount asked is
SCI. .o37.53, and interest at 6 per cent
since Harbeck's death.
Mr. and Mrs. Harbeck lived in Boul-
der for ten years.
1t was presumed that most of Har-
beck's fortune was New York proper
ty. About a year ago it was learned
that it consisted principally Of stocks
and bonds and WAS, hence. assessable
under the Colorado inheritance law.

eral Farrar last February, at which
time Walter Appel of Denver was ap-
