his body hit Mrs. Lewis in the upper
right thigh.

to the restaurant about 2 am. In
search of another man and en-
countered Mr.. Sherman. An argu-
ment arose when Mr.. Quinn at
tempted to place Mr.. Sherman under
arrest and Mr.. Sherman drew a
knife from his pocket, according TO
the police version Of Mr.. Quinn S
story.
When interviewed by a Star re-
porter at No. IL precinct, Mr.. Quinn
declined to make any statement
other than that Mr.. Sherman drew
a knife on him and that he (Mr.
QUINN did not know Mrs. Lewis.
Witnesses told police that Mrs.

rant to meet a woman cashier there,
stepped up close to the two arguing
men in an effort to overhear what
they were saying.
Visited Precinct Station.
Policeman A. E. Sweeney, one of
the investigators, declared that Mr..
Quinn came by No. Precinct Sta
tion few minutes before the shoot
ing occurred. The policeman said
he showed Mr. Quinn a picture of
a man sought by the deputy mar
shall and told him he had seen this
man at the H street restaurant a
few minutes before.
At the Belmont street address CIV
en- as Mr.. Sherman's the janitor
said that the apartment, in which
Mr.. Sherman was supposed to live,
was rented by man about two
months ago, but he never moved in
Police said the reason Mr.. Quinn
was held for investigation was that
mis- story of the shooting varied from
accounts given by some of the wit
nesses. Detective r. A. williams
was in charge.

Trimming Flatters
Prettiest Neckline
Feminine Sparkle Added to
Dark Dresses.

Stores that set fashions are dis
playing dresses with charming neck
details. Every woman knows that
IT'S the contrasting neck details of a
trock that can make her look pretty
and most women would rather
look pretty than just smart.
Dresses for daytime are trimmed
with beaded revers, embroidered
collars, and contrasting neckline
borders. There are brightly colored
beads, make-believe gems, gold and
jet sequins and beads-all softening
the severity of plain necklines, all
adding a feminine sparkle to simple
dark dresses.
Restraint is used in these touches;
collars and revers are small, band
ings and borders are narrow. A
little sparkle can do a big trick.
Alencon and Venise laces, brightly
colored velveteen or bengaline coll
lars are being used to brighten basic
dresses which are such excellent
folls for the new neckwear. If a
woman wants to look pretty, there
is delicate pink neckwear to give
a fiattering glow. For gaiety and
freshness, there's red. Little red
velveteen or pique touches make
stunning accents on blue, gray or
black basic dresses. Some of these
little collars in red are beaded in
jet scrolls to give a further con-
trast.
For real elegance, the newest and
smartest idea in fattering neckwear
is the beaded deep yoke of fine Alen-
con or corded Venise lace. Charles
Armour, famous American design
er, started this fashion with his SIM
ply draped afternoon dresses, the
set-in beaded lace yokes being the
only trimming. These designs have
started the vogue for separate plas-
irons and yokes of lace which are
elaborately beaded to dress up a
black gown.
For femininity nothing has yet
been devised to equal the softening
effect given by lovely neckwear
which is wisely chosen.

What Is Segregation?

Segregation is the special Amer
lean means of branding Colored
Americans as the interiors Of in
feriors in public status.
"When the white South found it.
self confronted with the federal sta
tus Of equality for Colored people,
the former slaves-equality Of citi-
zenship, of freedom. Of franchise
rights, backed by the national gov
ernment-it selected the denial of
presence and of service in places
opened for public patronage as the
one great way to brand Colored
people as having been a slave race
and make them forever the scorn of
civil society.
"It is a very effective measure.
Colored people are traitors to them
selves to aid and abet tie idea BY
self-segregation."

Whinns of Fashion

Halo bonnet is new millinery
theme.
Long-torso sleek-fitted blouses
are dotted all over with beads or
sequins.
Pumps have been voted high
fashion this season. To add to
their intrigue the newest versions
have little contrivances through
which various bows, swatches of
fur (matched 70 hats) and other
items of ornamentation may be
slipped. A grand idea since it
tunes your footwear to occasion.
Large jeweled medallions sus-
pended on chains so fine they are
almost invisible, is fashions
latest wrinkle. With low-cut
decolletage, the effect Of huge
sparkling ornament with no neck
lace in sight is battling enough
to excite interest and at the same
time adds a high touch of adorn-
ment.
Among evening coats that are
outstanding, delectable types of
satin in delicious" pastels COM
pete with handsome wraps made
of black taffeta. These are
beautifully fitted princess styles
with wide floor-length skirts and
big revers a la directoire, the
absence of trimming giving en-
phasis to the elegance of the
fabric.

Long-Haired Fur-Felts
Stage New Comeback

Often a fashion that has dropped
out of the picture for many a sea-
son stages a revival that makes old
fashion become new fashion. This
is especially true in the case of the
long-hair fur felt nat which is again
becoming popular.
These big picturesque noncha-
liant furry shaggy felts feature high
in the fashion picture" They come
in fascinating colors and all they
need is a quill jauntily positioned
and a deft turn here and there to
the brim to give the dash required.
Amusing, and chic to the utter
most are the new little hats of rae
coon.

CAPES! Fur capes have come out
~ in spectacular array this win
ter. Some are wrist length, while
others go elbow deep. Among the
'little furs" worn separately with
a cloth coat, cunning shoulder capes
are especially chic.
To add to the romance of this in
triguing fur cape vogue come muffs
to match, which together with hats
of the same fur complete very at
tractive ensemble.
Fur capes included in mid-winter
collections are so versatile they in
terpret the casual and sporty or the
regal and stately. They qualify for
not only smart daytime wear but
also for gala night occasions.

ual daytime wear.
Speaking of the popular spotted
furs, stores are showing perfectly

BEAUTY HINTS
EYEBROW BEAUTY
By Nina Temple

Your eyebrows can be made to add
much to the beauty and expressive
ness Of your face. They accent the
eye and to do this should be a shade
darker than the lashes. Also the brows
should be well groomed, that is
brushed well and then the line of the
brow extended if needs be, beyond the
line of the eye. There is something
very finished looking about the face
when the brows have had the care they
are due. Be sure not to neglect the
points of the brows if you
would get every bit of beauty effect
from your make up.
