No one has been suleeted as yet by Dr. Dixon to succeed Mr. Snow, who has handled the technical end of the srreat campaign for im provement of water and drainage conditions which have been such a notable part of the splendid work of ihe State's Commissioner of Health. ■ Dr. Dixon will probably personally di rect that branch of the department I until he makes an appointment, as he is thoroughly familiar with that work j being one of the pioneers of its study in this country. •Mr. Snow is a graduate of Harvard University and .Massachusetts Insti tute of Technology and from IS9O to 1905 was in general engineering prac tice with offices in Boston,. New York ; and Chicago. He was the senior [ member of the firm of Snow & Bar bour and handled construction, drain age, rating and other propositions for States, cities and corporations. One of the notable vorks in which he took a leading part was the abolition of grade crossings in Boston and he was | also one of the engineers on the Bos ton drainage system. He was also in • harge of considerable construction work for several railroads and trollev ompanies, including bridges. After Mr. Snow was selected by Dr. Dixon be was named for Important work by lie New York Public Service Com mission, but remained in this State's ■service. He was one of eight Ameri- j can and European engineers named i for the study of drainage of New \ orlt's harbor four years ago. and lias been actively identified with the State's work of investigation. Mr. Snow has served as a president ■>f the Engineers' Society of Pennsyl vania and is a member of a number <»f learned societies, being likewise a uember of the State Engineers' Com mission. MR MM.

Mr. Qoe- ' let. she said, objected to certain bills >he had incurred, and she had to pay them out of her own funds. Wiliam Drake, the valet of Mr. Goe- : let, deposed that he had asked Mr. Goelet as to his taking orders from Mrs. Goelet. Mr. Goelet had replied "You'll carry out my orders or I will soon get somebody else who will." "I was ordered by .Mr. Goelet," con tinued Drake, "to put on my evening clothes every night and take up a posi tion in the from hall, where 1 was to make out a list of all those who came to visit Mrs. Goelet. I was to report I what Mrs. Goelet wore; whom she went out with and what time and the time she came in and where she went." Depositions of Frieiul> "Mr. Goelet always said that paint ing and singing in which Mrs. Goelet was intensely interested were—non- : sense." deposed Mrs. K. S. Reynolds Hitt, a guest ; t the Goelet home. "He •ailed her 'fool' on numerous occa sions and was always rude to her and to her friends." Mrs. Esther Harrison Rowland de posed: "On one occasion while I was dining there she said she would like t.i> inarch in the suffrage parade. He said, 'if you do (with an oath) I will :>ut you out.' I never heard her sav an angry word to him. He sneered and jeered at her, even while at din ner, and in front of numerous guests " Walter Shirley, a butler, said: W hen Air. Goelet addressed his wife le never looked at her." Nellie Roberts, a maid, deposed that Mr. Goelet said that "any sen ant who served a meal to any une unless b'- knew of it would be discharged. One lime I heard Mr. Goelet tell Mrs. Goe let to go to " Other depositions were readv, but ' be judge said he had heard enough Before her marriage on June 11. 1 fO4, Mrs. Goelet was Miss Elsie Wheien, one ..f the most popular member* of Philadelphia's younger -et and considered at the time the most beautiful girl in the United States. She is descended from one of thi oldest families in ihe city. An anct-s --lor on her father's side was YVillian* Smith, first provost of the Universitv. iler mother, before hW marriage, was Miss Baker. •The Goelet-Wheleii wedding cere mony was performed in St. Mary's ■hurch.

The de signing is superb. The originality and deftness with which the hats have been made have resulted in millinery that is dis tinctive in every sense of the word. It is a great pleasure for us to be able to offer millinery like this. People who come to visit the department take v great interest in the display because there are Jt so many styles to select from and the choosing is K really keen* pleasure. ■r" The very latest and most novel creations of New |HB York and Paris are exemplified in the styles we show and the important feature to women who prefer exclusive millinery is that these styles cannot be seen anywhere <**' e in Harrisburg. \ But not only are the styles individualistic but the quality of the materials is such as you JE. would expect only in hats of a high grade. V>v?| Although our styles are different and distinctive Jtl and qualities high our prices are very moderate# —- The line of untrimmed hats is perhaps the largest w r e liave ever shown. * 'yuF/M The assortment includes everything from the small turban-like af fair to the large smart flat dashing shape that is so much in evi dence in the fashion centers.
