PERSIAN VELOUR POPULAR NOW IN PARIS CREATIONS

PARIS, Jan 13.-Paris designers continue to turn toward the Orient for their inspiration.
 One of the newest materials which they have brought forth is Persian velours, silk velvet as soft as the downiest feather that e'er dropped from Q songster and imprinted with gorgeous designs interwoven with threads of gold and silver. This, by the way, is feat worth noticing, this weaving threads of gold into the velvet, all the time preserving it's remarkable suppleness.
 There are exquisite patterns of flowers and geometric designs in softest colors which blend together and make one think of old Persian fairy tales.
 Very seldom is the entire robe made of one printed piece. A mere heighten the effect and bring out the rich coloring. One of the lead ing dressmakers is making stun- ming Persian velvet in green, open ing upon a black background fo paradise velours The bodice is en- tirely plain and sleeveless. The skirts, which is full and graceful, is bordered with kolinsky, which forms the sole trimming. This is one great advantage of this material it needs no garniture. The pattern is sufficient
 A handsome rose-colored pattern has a large draped sash in beige, ending in a little train. Another in brown has a plain brown bodice and a fur band around the waist. For evening wear it makes a charming coat united with large bands of black velvet The fullness is given by many tiny gathers about the shoulders topped off by skunk collar.

He lived on the home place, was considered the soul of honor, took pride in the birth and rearing of the children and when Mir.

He was a member of the United Order of Good Shepherds, which Is one of the largest of the negro organizations. When he be- came i'll recently his home folks car ried him to St. Vincents. where he was given every attention that money and devotion could provide.

 Get the tcxis first" was Commits sioner w. F. Cloe's statement, T ob- ject to the old jitney automobiles being used. They will make too much confusion. My department will
 W. F. Spencer and R. T. Quinn. att torneys, representing tho DirminsA nam IT terurban Taxicab Service cor poration, asked that llcenses be granted. They made formal spplica- tion. MT. Quinn stated that 45 ot the former jitney men had organized the company. intending to give bona fide taxicab service and that they would abide by the ordinances cover ing such business and aid in seeing to it there is no violation by Jitneys. Mir. Quinn said the new taxicab con cern would carRe tie same rates as ether taxic&b service. possibly lit- tie lower. The new concern has rented the old Alabama garage at $20O a month for use as headquar- ters.
 MT. Spencer said in reply to MT. Cloe's comment that the $25,oo0 paid capital of the company was repre- sented by the rolling stock; that 1t was a new business made up of poor men and new taxis would be bought when the old ones had worn out. MT. Quinn had said earlier in the dis- cussion that the company was in touch with a manufacturer of taxi cabs and a representative of the manufacturer had been in Btrming- ham to look over the situation.

He said the application for a license should be checked with the ordinance. If 1t meets it's re- quirements. Mir. Wynn said, he saw no reason why the permits should not be granted
 MT. Quinn said the new company would fight the jitneys if they at power to keep the jitneys out of business
 Commissioner Cloe was very du- bious about the granting of the per init "If we find the taxicabs clut- tering the streets, as l have seen them in other cities. it will be neceS- sary tc pass an ordinance keeping them in buildings subject to call. h. reference with traffic will result in the offering of an ordinance to keep them off the streets"
 Commissioner W. L. Harrison said that If the new company operated straight taxi business, going on rec ord not to operate jitneys, he had nothing to add to the discussion, but, the jity has expressed itself about jitneys and the city will carry out to the fullest the will of the peo- pie.
 The subject was referred to Com missioner Cloe and City Attorney Wynn for investigation.
