FOR WOMEN ONLY LOVER OF FINE HORSES RS. CLARENCE WATSON, wife of the new United States senator from West Virginia, is, like her husband, an enthusiastic admirer of good horses, and they own some remarkabiy fine animals, which were entered at the recent horse show in Washington. These horses also will be entered in the London show,and Mr. and Mrs. ‘Watson will be in England at that time and will attend the coronation of King George. AN A A A AR AN NEEDLEWORK INEN 1s perhaps more used than any other material when em- broidery is to be done for art, household purposes and wearing ap- parel. Much as we use linen nowadays, for our table, our beds and our bodles, it is not a new medium for embroldery. It is ages old, as for centuries linen embroidery has been a domestic in- dustry in foreign lands. This old work 18 now being copied widely and the special work belong- Ing to different lands 1s easlly recog- nized. Thus the old Spanish, Italian and Greek embroidery on the linen was chiefly done in one color—a pur- ple red. A great variety of colors mixed with gold and silver thread is characteristic of Oriental work. A similar richness of coloring, but generally without the gold and silver touches, marks the Hungarian, Slav, and Swedish peasant work. OIld blue red and yellow are the predominating tones. Much of the Italian embroidery of the sixteenth and seventeenth cen- turies was done on very fine linen sometimes In colors, but more often in white, with intricate stitchery and much cut and openwork. The modern girl, however, rarely has patience for this exquisite stitchery of the olden times. Her work is more splashy and less beautiful. For this reason the quality of the linens used today are changed, the threads being round and coarser, so they can easily be counted to make easier the copying of the design. The old embroideries, especially the Ital- ian ones, were done on very fine linen. In choosing a linen to embroider it should, be hand-bleached, and without much dressing. The threads should be round, especially if any drawn- work is to be combined with the em- broidery. There are special art lin- ens for fancy work which are quite distinct from the linens used for sheets and pillow cases. Unless you are sure you can detect cotton threads and imperfect weaving, it is well to leave the selection of your linen for an elaborate piece of embroidery to a saleswoman in the art needlework department. She will gladly advise you the best grade for your special purposes. Linen embreldery may be classed under two heads—that where threads are counted, for the material accord- ing to a pattern done on checked pa- per, as in all cross-stitch work. Slav embroideries and various kind of can- vas work; the other where the pat- tern 18 drawn on the material and the embroidery worked without regard to the threads of the niaterial, as in Eng- lish embroidery, satin stitch, Kensing- ton, Chinese and Madeira embroi- derles. No linen embroidery covers the en- tire ground of the material, but leaves spaces of the linen for a background to the design. There are interesting Imported lin- ens to be found in most establish- ments that are adapted to both kinds of linen embroidery. Besides the Irish linen there are Spanish, Silesian and Algerian linens for small stitches and flne work, while the coarser lin- ens of Cuba, Ceylon and Batavia are used for bolder effects and coarser stitchery, and Russian linens and the different kinds of canvas gives stitches of any desired size. Most of these can be found in white cream and ecru, and many of the so- called art linens come in varied tones of any given shade. Though the old-time embrolderies were rarely done on cotton goods we think nothing of putting handsome stitchery on cotton materials sheer and opaque. It 1s better, however, to make such embroidery sketchy, as the material is not worth fine work. Unfrayed Scallops, Some housekeepers object to the buttonholed scallop on embroldery, be- cause it frays In washing. This can be overconmie in several ways. The surest Is to buttonhole a second time over the purled edge, when the scal- lop has been worked and cut out. Another method is to run the out- line of the scallop with machine stitching before buttonholing. Or In cutting leave a narrow margin and turn back under the scallop and hem to the material. It these are too much trouble, at least wash the linen before cutting out. The material shrinks and is much less likely to fray. Where the entire plece is not washed, the embroidered edge can be dipped in lukewarm wa- ter for a few minutes, then ironed dry and later cut out close to the purled edge. New Trimming Features. Masses of foliage in the color of the hat, plied over the crown. Buckles, carbochons and other orna ments made of lace Tuscan and studded with corals or turquoises. Butterflies and fans formed by wide, pleated satin ribbon. Heavy cord-shirred effects in ribbon garnitures of all kinds. Fancy brim facings of layers of vari- colored net or chiffon. Wide, flat ostrich trimming bands overlaid with roses. Handsome brim bands of braid, jew- eled or jet embroidered, White for all occasions is to be worn this spring and summer. All kinds of laces are in use—heavy ones and the daintiest and filmiest. Poke bonnets are again in favor and the severe jockey cap is a novelty. High, small turbans are trimmed with cabochons of garden flowers on the side. Shorter sleeves are looked for in the models that : : to be worn in the com- ing summer. Higher and higher mount the toques, higher and higher soar the feathery adornments. There is a combination of French knots and colored beads seen on the new waists that is attractive. As for embroidery, French knots are distintily the thing, whole patterns be- ing worked out in them. @om brulses. NEWEST COLORS AND WEAVES Softness Is Likely to the Strong Polint of Each—Stripes and Halr Lines Liked. Apart from a few eccentricities which feminine good taste will soon banish, fashion this season is bringing us some charming creations among the new materials, such as, for in- stance, the reversible covert coating, one side of which is striped and the other plain. Sflky cashmeres in very soft tones will also be offered to us—gray, terra cotta, blue, etc. These cashmeres also have one side glossy and one striped. This stripe is generally black and white, though sometimes a dark color, such as navy, brown or violet, re- places the black. Among these double- faced materials which will be very popular, and which lend themselves to such multiple and charming com- binations, navy blue lined with khaki, gray or plaid of an indistinct pattern, will be Very successful. Very chic also are the fine striped materials— black and whites lined with orange or cerise, or plain black lined with mole or Parma violet, or black with fine hair lines in azure, green or mauve, which have an elegance quite their own. ‘We can imagine nothing which adds more to the slender appearance so much sought after than these stripes and hair lines. Our tailor-mades in these materials will be simple and har- monious, straight without exaggera- tion. The plain revers will be lined with fancy material, as also will the turned-back hem of the skirt. Walking Skirts. Enter the tweed skirt that s short, well fitted, pocketed and rain and dust defying. It is & practical walking skirt for moufitain climbers, for “shirtwaist girls,” for city business women. There are many styles to copy when making it. The circular skirt is always good if you are able to prevent sag- ging at the back seam. This can be done by sewing a tape with the edges the full length of the back seam. The two-plece skirt with the seams at ‘the sides is very satisfactory. Then there is the circular form, with | plecing at the center line of both back and front. A deep hem is stitched with eight or ten hows of stitching; a little pocket with a buttoned flap is added, and & narrow stitched belt of the same ma- terfal finishes the eminently practical garment. lNEW STYLE FOR FOULARI A good many contrasts of coloring and actual pattern, too, are notable in an absolutely di- verse design being often interwoven in the one length of material, while sev- eral model gowns combine spotted foulard and plain twill silk or fine face cloth. So one has quite sufficient— and Parislan—precedent for bringing together the plain and spotted blue foulards, and, for further introducing —in the manner suggested by the sketch—graduated bands and flatly folded rosettes of black satin, a col- lar of the finest lawn, and a little frilled band to match, being other accessories of the corsage. Immense Wrist Ba New wrist bags of black velvet car- rled at Nice, by smart women are of an immense size—really larger than anything of the sort ever seen before. Walking, they would seem a real bur den; sitting in one’s carriage, laid on the lap, they are highly ornamental. Flat, and mounted with velvet-covered fittings, they are susupended from a chain of fine cut steel; so slender, it seems quite inadequate to thelr size; cut steel is woven into the velvet in a deep border and old Gothic designs, trimming both sides alike.—Vogue. Starching Linens. For linen articles, table linen, dre er scarfs, or sheer linen waists add a tablespoonful of starch to two gal- lons water, and they will iron with a stiffness like new; remember always to iron linen on wrong side first. Wash starch vessel in hot suds, never cold water; use pleces old underwear with 8 few buttons on to save finger nally THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER G0ODS OF CROOKS TRACED TO DUMAS (Continued from Page 1.) this time, although he says it will be shown that he was guilty of no intentional wrong doing. How The Deal Was Arranged. The detectives declare that when Dr. Dumas learned that the Smyth building had been for sale at Pup- osky for some time and had not been sold, he made the proposition to burn it for the insurance money and that he would see to it that the build- ing was destroyed for $300 and that the $200 check was part payment and that he was to receive $100 in cash. It is presumed that Smyth was in harmony with the detectives as it] is known that the $100 was in mar- ked bills. It is believed Smyth has received threats against his life and for this reason does not wish to make his connection in the case clear. Arrests Temporarily Delayed. Promised arrests of business men in Bemidji and Cass Lake have been postponed, probably until after the sworn statement of - Fred Hunter, now serving a seven year term at Stillwater, has been obtained by Joseph Fielding, in charge of the Pinkerton detectives on the case now in Stillwater and Assistant Fire Marshal Sam Fullerton who left here last night for St. Paul. Mr. Fullerton will join Mr. Fielding at Stillwater today. It is said that the Hunter statement will be another strong link in the chain which has been wound around Dr. Dumas. “It is merey a question of when is the proper time to proceed,” said Mr. Fullerton, last night. “The promised arrests will be made as there is sufficient evidence, in the estimation of the detectives, to bring about conviction. There is no special hurry about locking up these men.” Ten Watched By Detectives This is taken to mean that no less than ten persons who conduct places of business in Bem‘dji and Cass Lake, are under constan: sur- veillance by detectives. As u matter of fact the detectives assert thut al- though the public may begin to think that they have had quite a sensation, that the real news in connection with the carnival of crime has not been sprung and that when the names of all the persons involved are published—and the detectives say that they will be—the public will receive a new and violent shock even greater than the one caused by the arrest of Mayor Dumas. Prisoner Here in Bad Shape. the captured Puposky robber is in serious condition as the result- of wounds received from duck shot in the battle Saturday morning in Pup- osky. Last evening he became so weak and his wounds so painful that Dr. Earl H. Marcum removed sev- eral shots from the bandit’s shat- tered legs. His ultimate recovery is by no means certain. Dumag Points Out “Mike” Davis. Another sidelight and not without its value as important evidence came to light when a Bemidji business man who objects to having his name print- ed, told of being in company with Dr. 1uras on Wednesda of last week, the day the mayor ic ir-- Sun.ed w0 hu.e revealed to his «wa federates the y'an for the robuesy During the evening the doctor was in the company of this man and to- gether they went to the Commercial Club rooms on Third street and while sitting near the window, “Mike” Davis passed along across the street, Dr. Dumas waving his hand at the notorious safe cracker, Davis returning the wave. Dr. Dumas then said to his companion: “See that man across the street? Well, that is “Mike” Davis, one of the best and most expert safe blow- ers and one of the most desperate criminals in the United States. I know him well. I told him that he must not pull off anything at Cass Lake while I was mayor there.” Tried to Hire Automobile. Persons who refused to give their names telephoned on Friday evening of last week—the night of the Pup- osky robbery—to the Bemidji garage, inquiring for an automobile that would carry eight persons “on a long, fast trip.” They were infor- ed that no such machine was at hand but one was ready for quick service that would carry six pas- sengers. The man at the other end of the telephone insisted that he must have a machine tnat would carry at least seven persons. Any amount of money, “anywhere within reason” was offered for such a machine. When told that it was impossible to supply such a car, the applicant offered “any price you name just so “you give us a fast, safe auto.”” The talker offered to send the money to the garage at once but when he found that it was impossible to get the machine, he rung off. He failed to give any name and at times seemed to confer with some companions near by. Bean will be given a preliminary hearing in court here as soon as his physical condition will permit. BORDER TOWNS. Many That Are Partly In One State and Partly In Another, A number of towns and villages in the United States are situated on state boundary lines, The names of some of these are formed on the model of what Lewis Carroll called *“portmanteau” words. Delmar and Marydell, for ex- ample, are on the line between Mary- land and Delaware. Pen Mar s on the Pennsylvania and Maryland line. Mo- ark is named from Missouri (Mo.) and Arkansas (Ark.). Texarkana is partly in Texas and partly in Arkansas. 1N ana Is on or near the Indiana line. State Line, which i half in Connectl- cut and half in New York, with nu- merous instances of the sort in other states, s a self explanatory name. Other border towns whose names do not indicate their position are Port Chester (New York and Connecticut), Blackstone (Massachusetts and Rhode Island), Westerly (Rhode Island and Connecticut), Kansas City (Missouri and Kansas), Guthrle and Fulton (each partly in Kentucky and partly in Tennessee), Harrison and Union City (in Indiana and Ohio), and Great Falls (New Hampshire and Maine). What is virtually one town on the border boundary of Tennessee and Virginia is legally known as Bristol on the Ten- nessee side and Goodson on the Vir- ginia side. A number of smaller towns might be added to the list.—New York Tribune. Peace at Last. Mr. Hoon—Scrappington and his wife have parted. Mrs. Hoon—Good gra- cious! What 1s the trouble? Mr. Hoon —There isn’t any trouble now. They have parted.—Smart Set. No Doubt In His Mind. Young Bachelor—1 often wonder if 1 | am making enough money to get mar- rled on.
