New Tailored Street Models Have Re.
ceived Stamp Of Approval for
Coming Season.

Devoting the entire line shown for
the fall to tailored models in poiret
twill, one manufacturer has a wide
assortment Of street frocks that al
ready have had successful response
in the market. Depending strictly ON
tailored lines for their effect, these
dresses have but little trimming and
it is applied with careful attention to
detail and artistry. Ia most every
case the models are created to fill the
needs Of the smart walking dress and
the practical frock that can be worn
indoors and out with due considera-
ton of the fall weather.
The colors are navy and seal brown,
besides black. Almost all the models
are developed In the two shades used
by this house. with corresponding
touches of color In embroidery and
bead effects. The models are inn
ported designs and feature Jenny
necks, Poiret necks and the y-neck
with an insert Of the same material.
In almost every model there is at
least suggestion of the uneven hem
line and the draped effect.
One model that is rather unique
was developed in Poiret twill with
bands of red and black imported en-
broidery. The essential feature Of
the frock is the fact that it can be
worn with hanging panel from the
shoulder, or the panel turned up pre-
sents blouse effect on the back, with
the band of embroidery forming
standing collar. The shoulder panel
lined with canton satin, when turned

PETTIcoATs AGAIN IN STYLE
Interest in the Garment ls Stimulated
by Fact That Outer Skirt ls
to Be Longer.

The increased skirt length, which Is
an assured fact for fall and winter,
has served to stimulate interest in the
.petticoat. This garment, which to a
large extent has been taboo in favor
Of boomers during the last few sea-
sons, seems destined to have run Of
favor again.
Among the undergarment novelties
recently seen. one that is distinctly
practical, as well as novel, is step-in
chemise, with plated petticoat section
both back and front.
.Corsets continue to be light of
weight, both as to fabric and boning,
with short tops and as much elastic as
possible used SO that they give to and

JeWelry is New Fad
Craze for Necklaces, Pendants,
Bracelets, Earrings.
Buyers Arc Enthusiastic Regarding
Bright Future They sec In Store
for Decorations.

The craze for new types of jeweiry,
particularly for necklaces, pendants,
bracelets, brooches, earrings and head
dresses, is steadily increasing, states
fashion correspondent In the New
York Tribune. Combinations Of pearls,
brilliants and platinum, pearls and
onyx and the use Of semi-precious
stones, such as lapis, jade and colored
crystal In sets that are especially de-
signed TO- accompany certain costumes,
are having wide vogue. Manufac-
turers Of imitation jewelry are has
tening to copy these new designs
brought out by the leading jewelers.
and launched by the most exclusive
dressmakers and their smart clientele
Several American buyers returning
from abroad expressed great enthusi-
asm regarding the bright future which
they consider Is in store for novelty
jewelry, especially pieces in black and
white effects, such as in combination
Of crystal and onyx and Jet and pearls.
Crystal, jet and pearls are frequently
combined, especially in necklaces. The
combination of these three is exceed
ingly pleasing, the whiteness of the
crystal offsetting the blackness Of
the Jet.
There are necklaces formed Of long,
twisted chains Of fine pearls finished
with tassel which has as the last
bead an onyx somewhat larger than
the last pearl, the whole being held by
an onyx slide. Others consist Of a
tassel Of pearls having an onyx top,
which is suspended on a long black
silk cord Still others have silver and
marcasite tops and small pearls set
between links of silver for the chain.
Plaque pendants or cabochons,
which are suspended from silk cords
or narrow velvet ribbons, are made
from crystal or from onyx set in steel
frames having a small motif of either
enamel or stones. These are distinctly
reminiscent of the. Second Empire
period. Other cabochons are Of crystal
set in frame of steel and decorated
with motif Of marcasite. 5

effects will take kindly to crystal

that, when he lay there by the rivu-
let, he had actually heard the last
words uttered by the sheriff; that Cha
cherre had committed the murder In
that moment-a nOiseless, deadly stab
That Hammond could or would have
done it he knew was absurd.
They found the murdered man lying
among the bushes. He had been
stabbed under the fifth rib-the knife
had gone direct to the heart. Cha
cherre announced that he had Ham
mond's knife as evidence and Gramont
merely nodded his head.
Lifting the body between them,
they bore 1t back to the barn.
"Now," said Gramont, quickly, "Tm
off for Houma-if don't miss my
roadi You men will be right alongf''
I'm jiffy," said Chacherre promptly.
Gramont climbed into his car and
drove away. He had no fear Of any
thing happening to Hammond; the
evidence against the latter was damn
ing, and with three men to swear him
into a hangman's moose, they would
bring him to Jail safe enough.
"a clever devil, that Chacherre r.
he thought, grin,ly. ''We're up against
a gang, beyond any doubt. Now, If
they don't suspect me-"
He turned in at the Ledanois gate,
knowing himself to be beyond sight or
hearing of the Gumberts place. He
drove the car away from the house,
and into the thick of the densest
bush-growth that he could find, where
it was well concealed from sight.
Then, on foot, he made his way along
the bank of the bayou until he had
come to the rivulet where oil showed.
Here he paused, concealing himself
and gaining a place where he could
get view Of the Gumberts land. He
saw Chacherre and Hammond there be
side the body of the sheriff the other
two men were swinging open the barn
door. They disappeared inside. and
moment later Gramont heard the
whirr Of an engine starting. A car
backed into the yard and halted.
The three men lifted the body Of the
sheriff into the tonneau. Chacherre
took the wheel. Hammond being bun
died in beside him. The other two men
climbed in beside the body. rifles IN
hand. Chacherre started the car to-
ward the road.
"All finer' thought Gramont with a
thrill Of exultation. They've cleared
out and left the place to me-and
want look at that place"
Suddenly, as he stood there, he re-
membered the slight plump" that he
had heard during that interminable
silence which had followed the CON
versation between the sheriff and Ben
| Chacherre. It was a sound as though
something had fallen near him In the
soggy ground.
The remembrance startled him
strangely. He visualized an excited
murderer standing beside his victim

renee which must have seized the man

Whatever had happened. Hammond
had evidently not been easily cap
tured. His countenance was some
what battered, and the one captor who
wore a collar was bleeding copiously
from cut cheek. The three turned
as Gramont's car drove up, and Ham
mond gave an ejaculation Of relief.

armed captors In an ugly tone. Hurry

must have caused him to do some
thing In that moment which In cool

Gramont turned toward the little
marshy spot where he had lain listen

ground, needless that the water soaked
into his boots. And, after minute, a
low exclamation of satisfaction broke
from him as he found what he sought.

'em. They claim done it"
"A dead mani" repeated Gramont,
and looked at the three. "What do
you mean?"
"Give him the spiel, Chacherre,"
srowled one Of them. Ben Chacherre
stepped forward, his bold eyes fas-
tened on those Of Gramont with look
of defiance.
1.-THE sheriff was here some time
ago, looking for stolen boat" he
said, "and went of toward the Leda-
nois place. We were following, in Or
der to help him search. when we came
upon this man standing in the bushes,
over the body of the sheriff. A knife
was in his hand and the sheriff had
been stabbed to death. He drew pis-
toi and shot one Of us"
.Gramont was staggered for a mo-
ment. "Wait" he exclaimed. "Ham-
mond. how much Of this is true?"
''What I'm tellin' you, cap'n," an
swered Hammond, doggedly. 81 found
a man layin' there and was looking at
him when these guys jumped me.
shot that fellow in the arm, all right,
then they grabbed my gun and got me
down. That's ALL"
The sheriff murdered!
Into the mind Of Gramont leaped
that brief conversation which he had
overheard between Ben Chacherre and
the sheriff: the strange. unnatural ST.
lence which had concluded that
broken-off conversation. He stared
from Hammond to the others, speech
less for the moment, yet with hot
words rising impetuously in him.
Now he noticed that Chacherre and
his two companions were watching
him very intently. and were slightly
circling out. He sensed an acqualnt-
ance among all these men. He saw
that the wounded man had finished his
bandaging, and was now holding his
unwounded hand In his pocket, bulk
lily, menaclDgly
Danger flashed upon Gramont-
flashed upon him wildly and with
startling clearness. He realized that
anything was possible in this isolated
spot--this spot where murder had so
lately been consummated! He checked
on his very lips what he had been
about to blurt forth; at this instant,
Hammond voiced the thought in his
mind.

feur. angrily.

hung the words in sneer, but with a
covert glance at Gramont. "This fell

handed Gramont, quietly.
