TN THE long story Of spring and
L summer suits there are so many
interesting chapters dealing with suits
Of unusual character, that the fashion
reporter Is apt to forget those that are
plain and unpretentious. But these
are most useful and most important.
While anyone may manage to get
along without an elaborate or formal
suit-if she must-the palmer street
suit is essential and merits study, es-
pecially as 1t contrives to be as smart
as its dressier kindred. and by more
subtle means. 1t has arrived, In the
company Of others more pretentious,
for summer time and all Of them en-
tice the fashion writer to begin over
again In writing the story Of suits.
Among formal suits there are those
that consist of one-piece dress with
coat to match, In which q bodice Of
foulard or crepe de chine or other
material Is Joined to q cloth skirt
The colors In the silk body suggest

Commissioner Wilbert Black said
Saturday some of the public markets
are heavy expense to the city without
comforting any benefits upon the
public. The st. John market, with
only four stalls, is in such a dan
gerous condition that it will be de-

The Pennsylvania State Highway
Department announces that the long
detour on the Lincoln Highway by
which traffic has been sent from Cham
bersburg through Greencastle and
Waynesboro to. Gettysburg has been
lifted, so far as passenger cars are
concerned. 1t is replaced by two hort
er detours. The first is between Fay
etteville and Caledonia, is fourteen
miles long and is closed to trucks. The
second, in the vicinity of Meningitis
town, Adams County, is four miles long
trucks must continue to use the de-
tour through Greencastle and Waynes-
boro.
The department has thrown open the
eighteen-mile concrete highway be-
tween York and New Freedom at the
Maryland line. This affords o rapid
connection to Baltimore.
Another detour removed is that of
the route in York County from Shrews-
bury south to the Maryland line.
Commenting on the criticism of the
Boston Post Road entering Greenwich,
Orrin G. Lawrence, of Jersey City,
writes to The Tribune: eff this is en-
titled to three lines, Tuxedo Park,
N. Y, ought to have column. Never
again!" This is another example of a
wealthy community that does not ap-
pear interested in the main through
highway.
"And, by the way, Port Chester's main
street is still very bad. They are, as
ever, depending upon the statement
that it is state highway which needs
repairing, as an excuse"

Black Hand Warns
Varotta, Fiaschetti
They Will Be Slain
Message in Italian Berates
Father of Murdered Boy
for Withholding Money;
Another Arrest Is Made

Salvatore Varotta, father of fiye-
year-old Giuseppe Varotta, who was
kidnapped May and whose body was
found in the Hudson River, June H..
yesterday received Black Hand letter
In which his life was threatened. The
writer also threatened to kill Detective
Sergeant Michael Fiaschetti, who has
had charge of the Police Departments
investigation of the Varotta case.
The message, typewriter in Italian
on smudgy, crumpled paper, was re-
celved in the mail at the Varotta home.
at 354 East Thirteenth Street. in the
morning. Varotta took it Immediately
to Police Headquarters and it's con-
tents were revealed by Detective Fla
schetti.
The letter read:
"Mr. Varotta, beware. You didn't
put up the money. We will kill you
like we killed your son. Tell Fiaschetti
he will never find the man who threw
the boy overheard. Tell Fiaschetti
some night he will get what you're
going to get Goodbye. You may cry,
but you're going to get the worst of it,
o111S1A l1A1NO
Varotta, it was said, showed no per-
turbation as he presented the document
to Detective Fiaschetti, and said that
he had no further fear of Black Hand
threats. Detectives were convinced,
however, that if the author of the letter
was not among those who actually
participated in the kidnapping he is ia
miliar with all details of the crime and
associated in some way with little Gui-
seppe's abductors.
The threat against the life of Detec-
tive Fiaschetti is the second that has
been made as a result of the detectives
activity in the Varotta case.
Vincenzo Troia, ffty-two years old,
of 515 East Fourteenth Street, was ar
rested yesterday at the Tombs prison
in connection with the Varotta kidnap-
ing and murder.
Troia's brother, Salvatore, was ar
rested short time ago on charge of
having two revolvers in his possession.
Fiaschetti and Detective Trezza sug-
gested that he get Vincenzo to visit
him. They welcomed Vincenzo as Vim
cenzo greeted Salvatore.
Vincenzo Troia and Varotta formerly
were in the automobile repair business
at SOB East Sixteenth Street. Their
first weeks business amounted to s38.

Jenny.

rail just below Jenny. "Winsome
Bluebird lived here last year. Whv

Thousands of Ghosts Walk ait Convention

Thousands Of Spiritualists attended
the informal opening OF the twenty
fifth annual convention OF the General
Assembly of Spiritualists at the Wal
dorf last night. Two hundred and four
teen of the convention delegates ap-
peared in both body and spirit, while
the rest of the vast assembly, accord
ing to the claim Of the visible, appeared
in spirit only.
c. f. Ender, private secretary to John
Slater, medium, said that regardless
OF the doubt of the world and courts
concerning the outcome of the Still
man divorce case, Mr.. Slater could, if
he so desired, give an advance verdict
tie also declared that the mystery con-
corning the whereabouts of Florence
Lawlor Leeds could be solved in ter
seconds by Mr.. Slater in the event OF
the latter desiring to unlimber such
information.
Other things such as the outcome of
the Dempsey Carpenter fight, the kid
napers of Giuseppe Varotta and recent
twisters may be included in the series
OF revelations, it was said

urer; J. l.. Hoard, Mathew Stephenson,
the Rev. John r. White and Frederick
w. Constantine, of the assembly, were
among the officers who gave informal
talks last night. The address of well
come was made by the president and
the response by William II. Burr.
A message given to all "seen and I'M
seen delegates" declared that thousands
of spiritualists were in attendance at
the convention, although their bodies
were not to be seen.
"Of these thousands" the message
read, Earthly business may prevent
their appearance in the body, but it is
known they will make every effort to
keep in touch with the proceedings, and
keen faith in the transference CT
thought may permit their lowering
about and taking an unseen part in the
convention"
The convention is to be formally
opened at $3.50 o'clock this morning
with the reading of officers reports for
the last year. A musical program with
several addresses will feature the eve
ning's program, after which John Slater
will give his first spirit message.
Mr.. Slater, who is soon to sail for
Europe, is head of the spiritualist camp
at Lilydale. An admission Of 81 and
81 so will be levied.

Troia, he alleges, chased him out of
the shop and would have attacked him,
only for the interference Of police
man.
Varotta then broke his partnership,
but was unable, he says, to get back
the 500 he had invested. According
to detectives, Troia became angry be-
cause of the break and said: you'll
pay for this some time"

Occasional Chairs

Occasional Chairs
which have a thousand uses
that chairs in sets cannot
hope to have.
BELMAlSON, our bu-
reau Of Interior Decorating,
has reproduced and adapted
from old models a group of
occasional chairs that are at
once more unusual and more
adaptable than chairs in sets.
Although various in form.
line and tone, they are so
harmonious and so welI-bred
In themselves that any one Of
them makes a charming ac-
cent in the country house.
From $l7 to SIS.
The chair illustrated is
cane-seated, Of painted wood
in grotto blue with carved
ornaments in gold. Its
lovely deeply curved back
offers exactly the right sup
port when one IS at a card
table or a writing desk.
This chair adds an anesting
and agreeable note Of con-
tast in a living-room or a
boudoir.
Little Spanish walnut
chairs with mulberry linen
upholstered seats are ornate
in their carved low backs,
but very dainty in effect.
A charming rose maple
American Colonial chair
with rush seat is inviting in
its simplicity.
A carved walnut chair of the
Italian Directoire period is sub
stantial but graceful. capable of
filling no end of uses.
Laddcr-back mahogany Chip
pendale chairs, upholstered in rose
damask, have the advantage of
being as good for dining-room use
