 She searched in her purse for the card which Holladay had given her as he and Reginald Moraunt walked away from Mrs. Selden's steps.

A SUIT YEAR" FOR
WOMEN OF FASHION
NEVER WAS THIS STYLE OF APP
PAREL SO POPULAR. TO WEAR
CAPES IN THE SUMMER.

With spring now fairly oper
women are fiocking to the stores
morning, noon and night Style ex
perts who have been watching the
fashion situation closely predict al
unusual array of feminine appare
this season.
Women generally are giving frs
consideration to suits, which buyers
attribute to the unusually mild wealth
er during January and February.
Shoulder Wraps for Summer.
Next in significance to the tremen
dous demand for spring and summer
suits is the continued popularity OF
capes and doImans. Contrary TO al
predictions, this style of wrap viii
hold its own throughout the summer
months. The latest cape models in
trOduce charming innovations in the
way of pockets, collars and arrange,
ment Of buttons. These garments
have won popularity because women
have grown weary Of the regulation
coat with convertible collar and reg
ulation belt and pockets.
Easter apparel will not be conspic-
uously gay in color, it is believed, as
90 per cent. of suits and wraps are
fashioned from navy blue fabrics
Touches of color will be introduced
however, by bright colored vests
lowered hats and gay bags and para
soils.
One of the dress accessories which
gives a touch of richness to the
spring costume is the fur scarf worn
close about the throat. These neck
pieces are fashioned from single
skins in many cases, the most pOpu-
lar furs being Russian KoIinsky
mink, Siberian squirrel, mole, Hud-
son seal, taUpe fox and fitch.
Suits Overshadow Dresses.
Due to the unusual demand for
suits finished with such adorable
touches of fur, dresses are not at
| tracing as much attention as usual
in early April. However, the shops
cry occasion which milady is sure to
want a little later in the season
There are serges and wool jerseys for
practicable wear, with simple models
in satin and taffeta and more elabo-
| rate gowns in beaded and figured
georgette for afternoon wear.
And, of course, everyone is eager
to know whether skirts will remain
narrow and long as the season adj
vances. Models shown in the South
are very conservative, both as to
width and length, in comparison to
skirts worn in New York. 1t is UNI
likely that extremely narrow skirts
will be worn here, and some critic
rions predict that short models in
separate skirts will be decidedly
wider.

WOMAN AND DOG

BARBARA SCHAEFER CLOTHED
IN MEMS RAGS STUFFED
WITH MANY BILLS.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-The strange
life of Barbara Schaefer ended yes
terday morning in her strange house
at 303 Morris avenue, Newark. Even
the tireman and policemen who broke
open the house to find her dead be-
side her black and tan terrier, both
suffocated, shivered at the weird sur
rOundings. The woman lay on the
floor dressed in rags of mems cloth
ing, though room in the upper part
of the house was almost filled with
boxes in each of which was a care
fully folded woman's gown. Every
pocket of the ragged things she wore
held comfortable roll Of bills. Yet
two chairs, a table and two stoves
were the only sticks of furniture in
the three-story house.
The fremen entered to extinguish
small fire. 1t had already gained
such Roadway that one of the wo-
mans shoes had been burned from
her foot. The kitchen in which she
lay was piled high on all sides with
newspapers, until there was barely
room to move about
The police were devoting their eff
forts to locate the woman's brother,
Richard E. Schaefer, a retired brick
dealer. They learned that he was a
member of the National Turnevrein
and that he came to the Morris ave-
nue. house every Sunday night for
years to take a bath. He always
brought with him his own towel and
soap, He did not appear last Sunday.
the neighbors said, and the police so
far have not been able to locate him.
Miss Schaefer, who was about so
years old, had not left the house in
two years, according to the neighbors.
They said that she sometimes called
children and sent them to buy provis-
ions for her. One Of the rooms on
the ground floor was plentifully
stocked with eatables.
