After the opening at the Fox
and the Metropolitan theaterS
last night, with movies and pic
lures of all descriptions being
taken of the debutantes. and
other persons of note. the
younger crowd. and even some
of the mothers. gathered at
the Mayflower to help Mrs. Hag
ner with her decorations for
the Halloween ball, which will
take place there tonight.
It was quite a sight. the
contrast between those who had
come earlier. who we're hard
at work with coats off. and
old clothes. and the late ar
rivals in full evening dress.
Even that seemed to make no
difference. for one and all were
down on their hands and knees
.. or up StepladderS screaming
to each other for tools, etc.
The decorations will be most
effective. the boxes being fes-
tooned with autumn leaves and
a sort of trellis draped in the
same manner over the orches-
ira. From the chandeliers hung
streamers of black and orange
crepe paper, huge pumpkins,
witches and the like are much
in evidence.
If the ball tonight has as
much pep as was shown in the
preparations for it . it should
be a gala event.

Washington F dshions
By WILMA LAVILLE
# notable =

This is a season of notable
revivals. Revivals of fashions IN
hats, in jackets, muffs, tippets,
bustles. colors and fabrics.
Everything has been brought
back from the last century ex-
cept the silhouette. Though we
may impose the details, trim
mings and colors Of that age,
we still cling to our long, Slen-
der lines. The combination is a
happy one, however, for the
trappings Of the Victorian era,
and the Second Empire fit very
well into our own rather ele-
CANT life and age.
Gowns Go Romantic
And revivals aren't restricted
to top clothes and day clothes.
NegligeeS and lingerie too hark
back to a more romantic era.
Puffed sleeves, fitted lines, and
other feminine touches diStin-
guish negligeeS. RuffleS, bows OF
velvet, roSebudS and many other
things equally dainty are worn
on lingerie. But perhaps the
best opportunity of all is af-
forded in nightgownS. They can
choose whatever lines they like,
and as much trimming. Yoke
tops are their natural right.
Berthas, cap sleeves, empire
waistlineS and other such lady
like gestures are as much at
home on a nightgown as on an
evening gown.
"Pompadour" Nightie
A good example of the new
femininity in nightgownS is
seen in the "pompadour" gown
we have sketched today. 1t is
in "pompadour" blue, a pale
powdery color, and the centers
of the rosebudS are a pale pink,
entirely French in their COM
bination. The bertha collar and
round neck are unusual, but the
distinguishing feature is the
hustle effect in the back, made
by the ruffles that mount from
the lower section to the waist
line. The sash also contributes
to the period" look, for it fits
the gown closely at high waist
line, and makes for a slender,
romantic line.
Of Practical Fabric =.
This gown is Of French silk
crepe, and it also comes in tea
rose with centerS of blue in the
roses about the bertha. It is
so dainty and precious" that
you might be afraid you wouldn't
really want to wear it, but be of
good cheer on that point. for
the price is modest in spite Of
the new and attractive features.

ASSAULT CHARGE MODIFIED
 BY AN ANCHORAGE JURY
Anchorage Times.)

The trial of Oscar Kajander, charged with assault with danger ous weapon, was concluded in District Court. yesterday and turned over to the jury during the late afternoon. After having been out a short time the jury brought in verdict of guilty of simple assault.
 4. The defendant was employed as a guard in the federal jail at .Naknek, small settlement in the Bristol Bay district. It was testified by witnesses for the prosecution that Deputy U. s. Marshal Reed had found the defend- ant asleep, while on duty at the jail and had requested him to go home. The defendant, who admitted that he had taken few drinks at a dance the previous night and more the morning after, resented the action of his chief, according to the evideace, and later, armed with shotgun, threatened the life of the deputy. Reed tried to per- suade the defendant to put the gun down. and finally fired several shots from his revolver to frighten the guard into submission. Finally it was sseen by the deputy that the guards gun was damned in some way so that it could not be discharged. He then charged the guard and beat him over &the.sshead with the revolver, after which heewas placed under arrest.
 at WAS felt lfy the .jury that the
 guard, in his condition of mind, might
 have shot the deputy had the shotgun been in working order, but in view of
