Dainty Tea Gowns.

The feminine eye cannot fail to be
attracted to the dainty new tea gowns
and boudoir gowns, which were never
more lovely than they are this season.
There Is a distinct revival of the es-
sentially feminine, daintily tinted bou-
doir gowns of flesh.colored georgette
crepe or crepe de chine combined with
a coatee of wide, sheer lace fiOuncing.
Occasionally georgette crepe is used
beneath the flOuncing to give the
coatee little more stability.

Cotton wolfe and swiss organdie are
already pledged to one another and

In other midsummer frocks this season.
Lace is inconstant and Is found In the
company of net and wolfe, Organdie and
crepe or any other of the sheer mate
rials.

arate pieces, and then sewed together
and afterward finished off with silk
cord. The piece of card required for
the bottom Of the basket is covered
on both sides with sateen. The other
six pieces are covered on the inner
sides with sateen, and upon the outer
sides with silk, upon which the design
shown has been worked in silk Of some
strongly contrasting shade Of color.
Dark brown, dark green, or crimson
silk, with pale pink sateen for the
lining and gold cord and gold silk for
the embroidery would all be pretty
and effective combinations of color in
which to carry out this little article.

In the picture there is the union of
white net and fine blue Organdie, In a
beautiful afternoon dress, to bring
home this enchanting blending Of two
transparent fabrics, to our sense of
harmony. The plain net skirt is faced

in net frocks. The buttonless dress
might be considered impossible. A

Marabou Trimming for Sweaters.

No doubt as consequence of the
high and ever higher price Of angora
many of the newest sweaters now show
a trimming of marabou. Especially at
tractive is combination of soft brown

is no reason why the woman who is
clever enough to knit her own sweat
ers should not also be clever enough
to devise marabou trimming from
marabou bought by the yard.

washington, June 22.-Congress is
preparing for an attack in force on
the ramparts of the coal trust.

committee today planned hearings for
regulation of sale, trans

requisition of the country's coal sup

In order to get speedy action it is

federal trade commission full powers
of control over the coal situation.

Prices of coal in many parts of the
United States have reached an exor-

introduced the resolution, said today.
I'm addition to this, large number of
consumers are unable to obtain sup

There is no question but that this

He thought he had come to Topeka

many other people. And SO Daugh-

Dramatic Lecture by Robert Parker
Miles.
Last is best of all the game so
the children say, and you will find
this true Thursday evening, when you
attend the last number OF the Lyceum
course for this season. Do not make
the common mistake of thinking this
a dry lecture, such as you may have
heard, for this will be unique, IN that
is Dramatic notice the difference.
Mr.. Miles experiences as an au-
thor, reformer traveller and reporter
gave him exceptional opportunities
for studying some of the great world
problems, and of meeting many of the
famous world characters who were
helping TO work out those problems.
As star reporter for the New York
Journal he twice went around the
world, writing articles which were
widely ubished-interviewi such
men as Gladstone, Baliour, Bismarck,
King Edward, the German Emporer
and many others. BY virtue of his
great dramatic power he is able to
reproduce on the platform these
celebrities, as "Tallow Dips" and
Sparks, until they live before his
audience. which is held spellbound by
the vivid manner in which he tells
his experiences. He is here. there,
and everywhere about the platform,
illustrating this, illustrating that,

Says Socialist Peace Manifesto Is
cowardIy Apology.

In declining 10 sing the Socialist
Party's recently prepared peace mani
festo John Spargo OF Old Bennington
a prominent member of its national
executive committee, sent yesterday
to Adolph Germer, National secretary,
a letter of bitter dissent. especially to
the eighth paragraph of the manifes-
to, which he denounces as u coward
ly and insincere apology for German
schrecklichkeit'
He characterizes this sentence, 1T
is idle to prate about lawful or law
less methods OF warfare" as having
no place in a Socialist document but
as one iittingly to come from a
militaIist international laws in re-
straint of warfare are a vital and inn
portant part OF civilized society. he
asserts.
Coming on top of our failure he
says ito protest against a reversion
to barbarism in the deportation and
enslavement Of the civilian popula-
ton of conquered territories by Ger
mans. this craven apology for Ger
manys studied and progressive dis
regard of the limitations which cen
turies of effort have placed upon war
and its inhumanities is distressing.
The proclamation reads like speech
by Chancellor Won. Bethmann Holl-
veg.
President Wilson is severing diplo
matte relations with Germany repre-
sents the best judgment OF America
and mankind. If war comes it viii
not be, as this proclamation charges,
because our capitalists have chosen
to make war on frivolous pretexts,
but because Germany deliberately
and for her own purposes forces war
upon us. No great nation in all his
tory ever manifested so much forbear-
ance and restraint in the face of re-
peated unproyoked attacks and inva-
sions of her rights as the United
States has done"
