effect upon the character and morals of women and of men than the Christian ideal which St Paul laid down for women Jane Olcott stated in a newspaper interview A man or a woman should be free to give love whenever It is natural Love is volatile and when it goes I believe it Js unmoral for man and wife even to appear to live together except for the sake of their children In that case each should be free to bestow love elsewhere by mutual agreement Marie Jenney Howe another woman suffragist has given this as an article of her belief We are sick of being specialized to sex we do not put any fence

Lawrence tried to sneak up and cap ture him but the peeper heard his approach and fled Stop or Ill shoot yelled Mr Lawrence The fugitive put on more speed Then Mr Lawrence took careful aim and pulled the trigger The peeper was about 60 feet away The effect of the shot was remarkable The peeper uttered a yell that was heard over half of Patchogue turned to the right and cleared a 6 foot hedge in

statement urged him to tell them the name of his assailant My Business His Reply La Monti with the semblance of a smile twisting the corners of his mouth shook his head My business he whispered I will attend to him if I live At the hospital It was said that the chances were against his ever having the opportunity of attending to him Bodyguard Shot Year Ago It was just a year ago on Saturday that La Monti was last concerned in a shooting aflair Enemies were on his trail and following it so strongly at that time that he hired a gunman for a bodyguard As he was driving up Fifth avenue near lOSth street the bodyguard was shot and killed and he himself escaped a like fate by whipping his horses and making away at top speed He would never tell who he thought murdered his employe Detectives Olsen and Cassetti are working on this case The police are sure there Is no connection between the two cases One they regard as a plain feud affair the other they believe would lead to the heart of the

Certainly no one could accuse her of being the queen of fashion yet she created a good impression even though she was not dressed in Paris cuts and clothes Queen Mary showed her indifference to Paris colors too for she wore pale blue and lilac on more than one occasion The day of her arrival she drove along the Avenue Dubois decked out in sky blue taffeta a blue hat to match and a feather boa of lilac Her1 Hats Rather Large Her majestys flats were all rather large and set high on her head All of us thought she would have looked better with a tiny little hat and a dress say of navy blue combined with daintily flowered taffeta but no doubt the Queen of England thinks that queens should wear the lightest and most perishable shades no matter whether they be fashionable or not By being a leader in styles the leaders of countries do a good turn to tradespeople by setting the wheels of industry in motion for as a matter of course all the subjects who can afford it will attempt to be as modish and follow In the wake of the queen But evidently Queen Mary of England wants to set an example of economy to the great middle and lower classes In England and she may be right I am told that her dress measured fully 2 yards around the hem so the queen does not adopt the toothpick skirt cut Long Full Capes Magnificent weather prevailed in Pans before and after the arrival of the sovereigns and the trees and sunshine make one think that all nature is en fete The cool air brought out wraps of all sorts and surely the long full capes are picturesque and graceful There must be many a yard of material in these new capes Some are longer at the sides than In the front and back falling over the arms in full plaits or in gathers and the effect Is stunning No matter how much goods is used however the fashionable wrap falls off from the neck It Is astonishing how much women with these capes thrown over them do resemble the officer of Germapy or Italy the small hat that is more or less of a cap the arrangement of the aigrette or the spike quill at a distance the effect Is exactly that of an officer In his full dress uniform with his paletot thrown over his shoulders With the real masculine waistcoat or vest the Watch fob has arrived The fob Is worn at the side Just as a man wears his but the elegante pins hers on not havihg the comfort of a pocket to stick the watch In A dainty style that is becoming and quaint ia the piece of narrow black ribbon velvet passed about the neck with a locket or some kind of a trinket depending in front The velvet is fastened tight high under the chin and thus seems to fill a bare place left by the low pointed collar of the corsage or blouse As a trimming for Jackets or to finish off the neck of taffeta frocks organdie and pique are

were a real desire to get at the truth and listen to arguments pro and con senators who are with the President would remain In the chamber and let us question them in an effort to disclose the exact facts and get at the merits of the case The manner of debating of Senators Root and Lodge is typical of the policy adopted in this debate Early in the session Mr Lodge delivered his oration on the Presidents side declining to be interrupted Last week Senator Root spoke for five hours declining In the same fashion to be interrupted Both these senators men of influence and ability who ought to be
