TRANSPARENT EFFECTS STILL
FASHIONABLE FOR EVENING WEAR
HintE Is a gown far

which haw been de
signed by an artist for
the Btout woman. It
almost seemed as It

pcaro spoke would hnvo
to bo encaried In taf
fetas when tho spring
evening gowns made
tholr first appearance,
because they all fol
lowed what 1 call
'debutante lines" tho
full, fluffy llnea of tho
hlgh-walstpd costumo.
Thcso flower-trimmed
gowns practically cx
eluded the Btout
woman, becnuso 'ss h e
couldn't possibly wear
a Victorian modol.
Black began to moke
lto appearance early In
tho summer as a most
acceptable solution of
tho problem, and Its
Instant popularity In
sured. Ita Success. Tho
Stout womnn enn wear
It and look well It
shows tho lines of her
figure to the best ad
vantage, without ac
centuating them. To
day's Illustration is a
charming gown of black
silk net over a clmr
meuso foundation and
trimmed with cut jet
ornaments. The bodice
Is a sort of Jupe culottu
6f tho Jet, with nn ex
tremely decolleto front,
veiled In net. This Is
held at (he throat by a
blnqk velvet bandeau,
Outlined by a dainty
wrcafh of pink roses.
Tho sleeves rench all
the way to tho wrist,
and are made of n
single thickness of the
hot.
The tfldrt Is a marvel
of well-managed dra

two tunics of vnrylng

trimmed with nn edg

he was talking about It; "you can slip

even think of entering. You can dig

true. Then It thoy are, you can have
the honor of showing all the garden

will be honor enough for a lifetime."
Tommy pooh-poohed the Idea, but he
couldn't stop thinking of itl You know
yourself that when once you get Into
your head thq Idea that perhaps you all
alone can do a wonderful thing, some
thing nobody else can do, you can't stop
thinking about It all In a minute.
That was the way with Tommy Tittle
mouse. Kvery time Sirs. Tommy spoke about
that cellar door, he replied, "Oh, pshaw!
You still talking about that I" Uut as
a matter of fact, he himself thought ot
little else.
In the day time, when he could spare
a minute from bis many duties, he crept
over to the door and eyed It carefully.
And tho more he looked at It the more
desirable did exploring behind Its dark
covering' become.
In the night time when Mrs. Tommy
was sleeping the sleep of the ombltlon

door and puisled his head about how to
dig behind It.
At last he made a great resolution.
H would slip out some dark, da,rk night,
and orawt through crack In the brick

NEGRO POET'S WIDOW TO DEVOTE
HERSELF TO SUFFRAGE CAUSE
Mrs. Paul Lawrence Dunbar Saya Pennsylvania Should Have
Granted Women Vote Long Ago Will Work in Negro
Communities With Aid of Prominent Philanthropists.
MRS. PAUL LAWRENCE DUNBAR,
widow of the famous negro poet, who
arrived In this city recently after a tour
throughout the country, said, in an Inter
view, that "It is not to the credit of the
women of this State that the tried and
proved principle of equal franchise la
still being debated at this late day,"
Th rforta of suffrage workers hero
are commendable," she said, "but the vote
should have been granted before now,"
A believer in the cause for many years.
Mrs. Dunbar has been active n the move
ment since last June. Since that time she
has been educating Negro women In the
merits of female suffrage. Before decid
ing to deYOte all of her time to the propa
ganda, Mrs. Dunbar lectured on literary
topics in schools, colleges una puDiia hails,
Paul Lawrence Dunbar died In 1809, His
temperament, understanding of Negro
traditions and his ability to picture the
hopes and life ot hLa race won for him a
national reputation- Mrs. Dunbar profited
by the farno of her husband, but her own
contributions to literature have prompted
favorable critletspi from various sources
She is a woman of unusual beauty and a
brlllllant conversationalist Some of her
work are "The Goddasi of Bt Roque, '
"Masterpiece ot Negro Eloquence" and
"Short Stories of Life In New Orleans"
Recognizing the Importance of the
olergy In Negro communities, Mrs. Dunbar
expects to work tq some estent through
the ohurchfcs and church organizations.

arrived and was Introduced to mo. He
Is a charming man, nnd works at tiie

M Cochet to his friend, "and I have Just

With great difficulty we persuaded M
Mader to Bpeok of tho affair at all. It
is much too hideous to discuss," said he,
"and I should prefer to speak of other
things!"
However, after somo perBUaelon, he con
sented to give his experiences.
"I told that Gorman officer nnd his men
that I could not believe they would cdminlt
such a orlme," ho Bald, "and that tho sen
tence wns unjust, for not one Inhabitant
hud fired on thorn. Wo are quite Inno

hove always told us to net paolflcnlly to

punish you for having committed nn act
so criminal. Great mlsfortuno will follow

"Ho retired, mndamo," said M. Madcr,
"to commit with hla commander, nnd we
remained In that lino of death while the
moon roso over tho field. We thought each
moment our last! Tho strain was terrible
and I felt suddenly faint with horror nt
approaching death.
"After a time tho captain returned on
his horse. 'You may go,' he said. And
we stood thcru overwhelmed with sur
prise nnd relief. Whon I was sufficiently
rocovcred I begged him to sparo the town
but he refuted. Ho said that the othor
men might no, but I was to stay with him
for a while.
"It seemed that ho wanted mo to act ns
guldo to tho house of tho Mnyor, whom
ho considered responsible for tho poison
ing of tho water. Ho mado mo drink tho
water, too, first out of n great bucket.
then out of n pond nnd then from a pump!
Just to show him that ho was mistaken
nnd that the water was not poisoned I
drank quantities and explained that tho
citizens of Sonlls would not dream of do
ing anvthlng so dreadful as to poison tho
watorl
"I wns accompanied all through tho
town by Geimnns, who smashed ovcry
door and window wo passed!"
Thus spoke M. Madcr, a simple, kindly
soul of the best French type.
A Florida Sunset
There's a throad of silver through the

A splash of crimson and gold;
And the tropic twilight Is closo at hand
As tho day grows old, grows old.
A shred of gray laco 'mid tho shimmering

Tho sun's last rays havo spun,
As It clings and blends with the velvet of

And the day Is done. Is done.
