The Injured.

Mrs. Henry Martell, mother Of the
five children already mentioned.
Young child Of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
Martell.
The affair was the worst of the kind
that has ever occurred in this vicinity
and has shocked the people OF Bethel
and Rochester, where the family were
well known. The mother and young
child, who were so badly burned, the
latter being on the dangerous list.
are being cared for at the home of
neighboF. Mr.. Packard.
The building which housed the ten
people was an old shed made into quar-
ters that passed for home but which
were most primitive, there being
large living room on the first floor and
two rooms upstairs. The building was
made over from a shed when the house
on the farm was burned some time ago
The Martell family had occupied il
for about year There was only
one door, that located in the rear OF
the shed, so that when the flames
broke out early this morning there
was little or no chance Of escape
The fire probably started when Mr..
Martell used gasoline instead Of kero
sene to build fire shortly after :
o'clock This is not positively known,
but it is said that he kept two cans,
one of which contained gasoline and
the other kerosene. The oil caused the
flames to spread rapidly and within
short time the building was enveloped
in flames. MIR Martell, the father of
the family, was able to get out as he
was dressed and he assisted others of
be family to get out, although Mrs.
Nartell and one child oi the two chill
lren who escaped were badly burned.
Mr.. Martell. sr., who lost his life. was
father Of Henry Martell.
The barn which was located near
he old building used for house was
not burned but Mr. Martell drove out
his seven cows and other stock
rom that structure. The injured mem
,ers of the household are being cared

sketch. The one from Maurice
Mayer, in Paris, in black and blue
Georgette crepe, expresses a SIM
plicity that is most attractive. The
upper part of the sleeve, as well as
the front and back portions of the
dress, are of the black crepe, while
the lower part is blue.
Very striking are the flowing
sleeves of crimson crepe recently in
PRODUCED into black frocks. Many
OF them are in japanese effect. Some
of the new Canton crepe dresses
have long kimono sleeves of the
black material which are slit and
pieces of bright red silk or chiffon
inserted.
Nine. Jenny, of Paris, one of
the first advocates of the long flow
ing sleeve, is doing even more in
teresting things in this line for au-
tumn than she did last spring and
we may expect many surprises from
her still later on.

were much in evidence at the French
races, the latter, worn with the arm
bare and short gauntlet gloves, usu-
ally in fancy style, having elaboraf
stitching and gauntlet trimmings.
The sleeveless dress with matching
cape has found considerable favor in
this country.
There is no doubt but that a revol-
ution in sleeves is practically upon
US. Before styles in these are defn-
itely settled we may expect to see
queer things done to them in an
effort to find out what will prevail.
Nothing could offer more fat con-
tradiction to a dress with sleeves
that are large, flowing and of con-

lar gray shade and, in a measure,
will take the place Of gray squirrel
for collars which, while very becom-
ing, long since ceased to be exclusive.
A Model Inspired by
The Maid of Orleans
SOME new French models showing
perforated serge are sketched
to-day. At the center of this page
Is dress from Agnes developed in
serge with very elaborate perfo-
rated design. 1t is not difficult to
imagine where the designer got her
inspiration for the placing of this
trimming. 1t comes from the ar
NOR worn by a famous warrior
maiden. Its maker has been quite
frank in announcing the source from
which she CLEANED her idea by nam
ing the model Jeanne dare.
While perforated trimming is the

most novel ornamentation for serges,
it is not by any means the only one.
Those in the summer who make
models intended to be carried over
into the autumn apparently have
exerted themselves to offer as much
variety as possible. On one of
Drecoll's best serges royal blue du-
vetyn marked off into squares with
a simple red embroidery is used as
an ornamentation.
Another eminent maker poses long
aprons of fringe on simple blue
serge frocks having straight bodices,
while still another house makes
much of coat dresses in this material

trasting color than froek absolute
iy devoid of arm covering.
And this is only one of the many
versities that we may expect in
the next few months. There is a
s. ng feeling, however, for the long
flowing sleeve, and it would seem a
safe thing to pin ones faith to at
the present time, especially since it
accords perfectly with the longer
lines in dress.

A Wealth of Sleeve
Or None at All
THROUGH all the lines in course
Of preparation for autumn runs
the tendency toward long, flowing
sleeves. In fact, quite a fad has
sprung up for the large sleeve usu-
ally in a color that contrasts with
the dress. Jenny has several sue
cessful models Of this character.
Ever SO many dresses in dull black
show sleeves in startling colors.
In direct contrast to these frocks
is the sleeveless dress. Both types

Unabated Popularity Of
Red and Brown

60 great is the faith pinned to req
and brown for the coming season
that many remarkable shades with
entirely new names have been
brought out. Among the red tones
there is Vionnet, verging on the rust
tones; flammant, a clear vivid nue.
and many other beautiful shades
There is, too, a new blue green
known as sea foam.
Judging from the shipments OF
beautiful silks being received from
France there is to be considerapie(
competition in tie silk business>
which cannot fail to have sflinu
lating effect on that industry IN TINS
country. Of course, production u
France is not yet on pre-war pass
but is steadily increasing.
In the French fabrics consider
able interest centers around mous
effects. This does not necessary
mean what We have always knoWnS
MORE silk, although many OF tness
are being used. Very beautiful ana
subtle effects of the old-time waterea
silks are introduced into satins, the
MORE appearance being produced
in the weave rather than in the nm
ish. So deity is this done and So
very elusive is the MORE effect tns'
a most unusual and charming ehee'
is produced.
Other silks show this idea re-
vcrsed and a MORE may have
against its lustrcus background
vague pattern in satin finish. jap
anese motifs are much favored iof
these latter designs.

Autumn Silks

from very dull finished crepy
silks? Evidently, if we are to
judge by the display of new silks
for fall which, while adherjry
largely to the creepy weaves. are Of
a Slight more lustrous inish. Tss
wouli indicate that by easy stages
we are TO be won over again to silks
with shry surfaces, out does not
mean tnat silks Of the Canton and
crepe de Chine weaves have been
vanquished. They are much 700 well
liked for that. 1t simply means that
we shall have others equally fashion,
able from which to choose and that
the higher luster will share the pop
ularity Of the dull finish.
There is firm belief among
manufacturers and dcessmakers
that satin crepes viii De the lead
ing silks for autumn. Among these
are various semi-lustrous silks
that retain the creepy weave but at
the same time have slightly shiny
surface.
The Silk Worm Achieves
Some Novel Effects
ONE Of the strong features for
fall is Kittens Ear Faille-a
! variation from the Canton weave ii
that it has more luster and ribbed
appearance while retaining pebble
suggestion on its surface It is
silk of considerable elegance with
beautiful dull luster. It in no
way resembles the old-fashioned
faille, which was so heavy that
drapery could not be considered in
connection with it. This new silk
is soft and lends itself TO every sort
of drapery.
Two soft satin crepes which will
be extensively used are Samovari
Satin Crepe and Paulette Char
meuse. The former has a shiny
right side and a Canton back, max
ing it reversible, as are many of the
new silks.
Very beautiful for evening dress
es and even for handsome negligees
and tea gowns is Kittens Ear Bro
cade, with a creepy satin back
ground and beautiful patterns bro
caded in self tones. The brocade is
usually in large conventional de-
signs.
It is gratifying to know that the
practical knitted silks are to be as
much in evidence this autumn as
ever. Denisette is an extremely sat
isfactory knitted silk in that it will
not sag or stretch and does not
crush. Almost any sort of frock
may be made from it, as it comes in
light as we'll as dark SHADES.

Perforated SerQes Sponsored By Paris
Embers Of Summer

a This season lntereSI al
n ways centers on clothes made
of serge. During the last few
years Paris designers have adopted
serge to surprising extent. There
is nothing tremendously interesting
in the fabric itself. and there is
many a woman who never would
consider serge dress for her ward
robe. Nevertheless, It is the back
hone of the cloth family in this
country as we'll as in England.
The French dressmaker is quite
as quick to take a tip from the
American woman as she is to follow
the suggestions of her Paris Glen
tele. The snartly dressed American
women, arriving in such numbers in
Paris early this summer, made
decided impression on the fashions
for autumn. Their choice unoues.
tionably is reflected in the crystal
lization of fall ideas about what
women shall wear.
Designers worked early in the
summer on serEes and brought out
models showing remarkable novelty
in the way of trimming, and through
the interest created in them have
made serge clothes almost a mid
summer madness in Paris.
Beige and Gray
Glimpsed Through Black
A MONG the serge novelties ID
both dresses and wraps are
models having elaborate perforated
designs with holes as big as q nickel,
through which is revealed a gleam-
ing satin lining. Obviously these
large perforations in serge make il
comfortable for summer wear.
The dress with wrap to match con-
tinues to be great vogue In models
of cloth, as well as in Grape de chine.
They are most interesting when
made in two colors, one the lining
and the other the outside. Black
usually is chosen and there is
marked tendency to use soft beige
and gray as the lining; beige when
a fur like sable is chosen for the
collar, and gray when silver fox,
squirrel OF chinchilla is used.
Novelty in the early autumn
clothes lies in ideas such as this.
Without actually making any radical
change in silhouette considerable va
riety has been introduced in the wav
OF ornamentation and the details
which make a costume out of the or
binary. 1t would have been much
easier to produce models showing a
marked change in outline, as all
history Of costume Is rich in de-
signs from which to draw.
Diversity in Trimming
Marks New Dresses
THERE is much more inspiration
to be had in silhouette than in in
teresting trimmings, but the reason
underlying the lack of change in out
line is that women in general prefer
the silhouette that has been followed
for the last few years. Consequently
it would be very stupid to endeavor
to force any other. Real cleverness
is shown in making the types which
have proved SO we'll liked moro in
teresting in the way Of trimming.
Serge dresses more than those of
any other fabric are much improved
by suitable trimmings and the per-
forated trimming is a welcome de-
parture from braids which, while
well suited to the fabric, have been
used 80 long that a braid trimmed
serge dress has deteriorated into lit
tie moro than a uniform. AS for the
