Friday, Sept." 22, 1911. THE THIES. 9 BRAID TRIMMED BLACK PLUSH TOP COAT 7 "1 With a wrap like this a woman Is prepared for any emergency which may call her outside her own door, for the coat may quickly be slipped over a silk or mohair frock and, with the addition of a smart hat and nice gloves, she looks well enough to be seen anywhere. The coat, lined with mauve brocaded satis and fastening in military fanhion with silk frogs and looping, is of exceptionally good style. With it is worn a plush-faced and banded rolling brimmed sailor of black satin relieved by white dove breasts applied flatly against the crown.

PADS AND FASHIONS New York. Sept. 32. The. first installments of autumn models have arrived from Paris and those who had expected to see some radical departures In style with the opening of the new season, are disappointed.

That does not mean that there are no novelties: to be found among the new importa- tlons. There is no lack of them, butt although some -of "them are rather weird the majority of them are quite rational, modifying the characteristics of the summer fashion, without depart ing entirely from its main features. Among the imported models shown at the fashionable shops there are many interesting and attractive specimens of tailored' suit. Serges, chev iots, tweeds, homespuns, satins, broadcloths and various boucle and zlbeline finished woolens are to be found. For hard service nothing beats a severely tailored suit of tweed or homespun, and In the Imported materials of this type then are beautiful colorings.

One of the handsomest models of that class seen was a mixed brown tweed, a beautiful dark Havana brown flecked with warmer and deeper browns, perfectly tailored in the complicated fashion which tailored severity Implies now, but absolutely without trimming save for the handsome tortoise shell buttons, which were used with some lavishness. The coat, about thirty-twp Inches in length, had rather large collar, and the sections in which it was cut gave a suggestion of high waistline in the1 back, though not in front. The sleeves were long and moderately close, the skirt of rational walking length and straight of line, yet with plaits let in under the edges of the straight front and back panels. Buttons play an important role on the full tailored coustumes and separate coats and the buttons supplied for such use are uncommonly handsome and effective. All of the modish colors are represented in them, the brighter tones usually in combination with black or some very dark shade.

A black or dark blue or deep brown button may have a band of brilliant color In very high relief against Its center or may be trimmed narrowly with bright color. Big bail or bullet buttons made in flnelycut crystal or dark tones are flattened on top and hollowed out so, that they are merely thick shells. In an extremely deep purple such buttons were on a good looking Paquln model of -deep blue double faced cloth, the reverse face being fine stripe of deep purple and black. The importer showed the same buttons and samiliar material in dark blues and blue. A tendency, to audacity in touches of relieving color shows throughout the ranks of the imported tailored costumes where these are not of the extremely severe kind, and some of the color schemes introduced are really qiiite startling.

So" extreme has this fad been lately that there has been a feeling against it during the last of the summer season, but in the new costumes ione sees touches of surprising color flaming against dark or neutral backgrounds. Purple seems to be extremely It predominates wherever millinery or dress goods are exhibited, but in the tailored suits there are many purples that have no tint of the bright or striking deep, rich, soft shades, in plain cloths or in tweeds and other mixed effects where the purple is toned down even more by flecks of white or black or gray or dark blue. Tunic lines of one kind and another are much in evidence among the tailored costumes, with the lower part of the skirt below the simulated or real tunic either in the same material as the tunic, itself in contrasting material. A tunic skirt opening down the middle or left front and sloping-'away to reveal an inverted of underskirt at the bottom Is used with many slight variations, and black'-satin frequently forms the underskirt, even when the suit material is one or the soft woolly cheviots or ratines. Apron tunics with underskirts showing around the botton and for the whole or part of the length on the sides are 'popular, too.

Among the strictly tailored costumes this arrangement is seen more often in connection with striped stuffs than with contrasting materials, the underskirt being defined by the direction of the stripe. Stripes have had a long and prq-nounced season of favor abroad and it seems likely that their popularity with the more fastidious public is waning, yet there are some good striped models from authoritative sources and there seems to be a decided liking for the plain monotone cloths faced in fine stripes and for stripes used as trimming. Although it is too early to predict for a certainty just what fabrics will be the favorites during the coming season, no woman will go wrong as to style if she provides herself with a satin gown. Judging from the new importations of soft, lustrous satins that have recently come to our largest shops, and following the demand made for these shimmering, clinging materials, soft in tone and infinitely soft In texture, we shall see costumes made of it ranging from the severely tailored street suit on through the line of simple afternoon frocks up to the most elaborate of opera and ball gowns. Not only is satin to be used in the building of gowns, but it will occupy a place In the entire outfit of milady's wardrobe.

Satin petticoats, some plain. with only a scant ruffle or two to relieve them, others trimmed with lace and embroidery that generation ago would have been considered quite elegant enough for the trimming of the handsomest party dress, will be worn. Satin or scant bloomers, will match the color of the gown. Princess slips of satin, for wear under the robe of. lace and embroidery; satin trimmings of Infinite variety; satin wraps embellished with gold embroidery and Jeweled lace and dainty Jewel-studded slippers of satin, will be in vogue.

Hats of satin, caps of satin and lace, designed for the theater; satin scarfs and satin muffs will all be seen in varying styles. Though not a new fabric, the wonderfully soft, fine weave and exquisite colorings found in these new satins that have Just reached us from abroad make the material one to be desired abovtall others for the foundation, if. not the whole, of the lovely costumes designed for the season. There is a definite return to the vogue for bordered materials in dressmaking, and some delightful effects may. be obtained from the beautiful things just coming into the shops.

Skirts, especially on lingerie dresses, are showing more fullness. A sheer linen frock was richly embroidered in white and wts trimmed with bands of emerald green mousseline de sole at the edde of skirt and sleeves. A green silk sash denned the waist. There Is some danger that the narrow French heel will supplant the safer pnd more sensible Cuban heel in fashionable footwear. FLORENCE FAIRBANKS.

22. There has been some talk here about an Insurgent republican banquet In this city some time the coming fall, but up to this time no definite anouncement has been made. According to the story, it is the intention to make the banquet a state wide affair, to be attended by the leading progressive republicans of -fhe state, but it Is probable that, if the banquet is held speakers also wllL be present from other states. The names of Senator LaFollette and Senator Cummins have been mentioned as two that might be invited to attend. A few days ago It was said that the banquet might be held on the re turn of former Senator Beverldge from i-Kurpce.

-Bgyprtdgfe JiaavagantiXhaaiiEa-. mer in Europe with his family, and he is due to arrive back home the first week in October. It has been suggest ed. that if the banquet Is to be held at all it would be fitting to have it as a "welcome home" for Beverldge. It is known that this plan is being considered by some of the insurgent leaders, but whether it will be carried out is not yet known.

Similar banquets are being held in other states by the progressive wing of the party, and some of the members believe that one should be held sue cessfully in this state, where the in surgent idea Is strong. One objection that has been heard to the banquet plan is that it would look very much like a part of the LaFollette campaign plan and -that this would make it unpopular in this state. Just how strong LaFollette is in Indiana as a presi dential possibility nobody can tell, but it is not believed here that as a can didate for the nomination for presi dent he would get very far in this state. Undoubtedly LaFollette has many admirers in Indiana, many ot whom would be glad to see him made president, but this does not seem to be the time for LaFollette to win the nom iation. In fact, there does not seem to be much of anything to it this year but Taft.

There is no question about Taft having the solid support of the Indiana delegation at the next nation al eonvention. He has not done or accomplished everything that some members of the party hoped for, but it is conceded that he is so strong as a candidates that they could not any good by fighting him for re-nomina tion. -So, if the insurget banquet is held it will probably be more for the purpose of influencing the policy of the party in the coming rampalg than In the. interest of any candidate for a nomination. In this connection State Chairman Lee.

who was quoted recently with criticising resident. Taft for his course of action at the recent special session of congress, said, a day or two ago: "Personally 1 shall support President Taft for re-nominatlon. I believe President Taft is sincere. No doubt he is trying to make a record for the party, and his errors ar certainly mistakes in judgment. While there are some sections of the state where the Taft opposition Is marked.

Indiana as a whole is for Taft, and I do not believe there will be a contest in the election of delegates to the national convention. "Do you regard Indiana as a reactionary or a progressive state?" Mr. Lee asked. "I certainly believe that Indiana Is progressive," he answered. "There has been on drect issue before the people in the last two or three years by which it could be determined definitely whether Indiana was a progressive state.

The liquor issue has been injected into each campaign and the people have not had opportunity to express their sentiments independently. The liquor question ought to be determined at a special election, when it could not he made the plaything of party politicians. It has no place in a party campaign, and it was a -mistake in the first place to believe it should be made an issue In 1908." Lee said he had found in his eight weeks of travel over the state in the interest of his candidacy for re election as state chairman, that for mer Governor J. Frank Hanly. who forced the county option bill on a spe cial session of the general assembly, is the most discredited politician in the state.

He said Hanly is the center of more hostile criticism than any other man or thing that contributed to the defeat of the republicans in 1907 and again in 1910. Mr. Lee says he believes he will be re-elected state chairman, although a strong effort will be made by the old guard to defeat him. He says, however, that under the rules of the political game he is entitled to re-election. because a state chairman )in an off year has always been allowed to hold the job during a presidential campaign.

Therefore, he declares that he will consider any effort to defeat him as an evidence of bad faith on the part of the other crowd. "The opposition that has been stirred up against me is really no opposi tlon Hp me personally, but to former Senator-Beverldge, whom I am sup posed to represent. As a mtater of fact I have heard from Mr. Beverldge but twice since he went to Europe, and both times I received short notes say ing that he was having a pleasant time In the Alps. He did not discuss poll tics or make a single suggestion about what he wanted done toward the re organization of the party." However, that Beverldge wilt take" a prominent part in" the re-organization of the party- next Januarv is i ore shadowed by a statement made by one of his closest political friends.

Former Senator Beveridge "has more friends In Indiana than any other two men in public life." he said. "Those persons who belive he is dead politl cany win wake up during the next campaign to find that he is a very live issue in the re-organization of the state committee. Beveridge will return to Indiana early in October and he will take an active part in the next campaign. The latest gossip in regard to the next democratic national committee man from Indiana indicates that Tom Taggart, Governor Marshall and Steve Fleming will all have to look out or they will have an opponent in the race that may give them some trouble. He is Mont M.

Hathaway of Winamac. It It seems to be practically certain that Congressman Dixon of the Fourth dis trict will be elected national commit teeman to succeed Tom Taggart, however, and this will be entirely satisfactory to Taggart, because Dixon has been a Taggart man; to Marshall, be cause Dixon is a. Marshall man, and to Fleming because Dixon is just the kind of man that Fleming likes. Hathaway has written letters to Indiana mem bers of congress, and some of them have told him that they would have supported him if they, had known ear lier of his candidacy. Taggart said that he would not be a candidate for re-election, and he has been taken at his word.

It has been started on good authority that the two factions of democrats In the state have agreed on Dixon as Taggar's successor. Dixon represents a rock-ribbed democratic district, is dean of the Indiana delegation and a member of the ways and means committee of the house. Hathaway, it is understood, wanted to be national coirimitteeman from In diana in order to gain an advantage in the election of a secretary of the na tionat committee. He wants to be the secretary. The secretary may or may not be elected from among the nation al committeemen, but it is generally conceded that a place on the comrrKt tee is a long step toward election as secretary.

Urey Woodson of Kentucky is now the secretary of the nationa committee. The national committeman Is elected by the delegates to the state convention Just before the convention convenes.
