Gorgeous Display of Gold and Silver Cloths and Other Rich Materials Points to No Lessening of Prosperity Here. By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. From a bride's dress to a widow's bathing sult, from the gown behind march to take Constantinople via the) tne testable to the gown behind the gun, from a handsdn-pockets sporting costume to a jewel-crusted evening frock with two trains, runs the sartorial scale at New York's firat great Fashion Fete, which ends to-night at the Hotel Ritz-Carlton. It has set the fashions for the world, this collection of more than a hundred costumes prepared by our foremost designers and approved by a jury of seven of the best dressed women in society—Mrs. Arthur Scott Burden, Mrs. James B. Eustis, Mrs. J. Gordon Douglas, Mre. Ernest Iselin, Mrs. W. K. Vanderbilt jr, Mra. Ogden L. Mills and Mre. Harry Payne Whitney. There is proof aplenty that New York artists in dress need no longer fear to sign their masterpieces, that beauti- ASAE *ful clothes created in this city need not be labelled “Imported” before they are offered to customers, ‘Whatever question the well dressed Woman may ask about the modes of the future is answered at the Fashion Fete, for toilettes to suit every oc- casion and the wardrobes of matd, wife or widow are on exhibition.

On evening gowns many touches of fur are to be found, but comparative- ly little lace, Silk and @atin flowers are less used than formerly, appear- ing mostly in the form of sprays which catch up skirt draperies. In a few instances tiny bouquets of rosebuds are placed around the decol- letege, or used to powder the skirt or outline its hem, ADVIS! MOTHERS TO BEGIN DIETING AT ONCE, ‘The full-skirted evening frock has descended upon the debutante, to whom, of all feminine creatures, it is most becoming, but her mother may atill find draped dinner and dancing gowns with the populer straight ail- houegte.

In certain instances these draper- jes are of the same shade as the gown, but more frequently they ap- pear in a contrasting tint. Thus a vivid stain of color is secured for frocks of plain black or white. At the Fashion Fete a conservative black dinner dress was made really striking by a loose curtain of burnt orange chiffon dropped from the shoulders to the hem.

A rather elaborate evening gown was in three parts, Over the under- skirt of Wilhelm blue net, with its fishtail train, was worn a black net tunic, embroldered in jet, ending in a high pointed girdle. The draped and sleeveless bodice of white net was embroidered in crystal beads and this gown showed unmistakably the prin- cess silhouette, Applause greeted another compli- cated model, developed in purple chif- fon, embroidered with gold and edged with fur, which was draped diagon- ally over white chiffon, the draperies caught together with a spray of grapes and autumn leaves ‘reaching from waist to knee. More simple but fully as charming was an evening wired. An evening gown of Wil- ied nearly to the knee fishtail train wae frequently used, also the tongu a slimmer variant of the fishtail and in one instance made of fur.

One of the evening gowns that at- tracted attention for its originality was of white and silver hrocade, with @ lace stomacher embroidered in seed Pearls, The brocade skirt was caught up in front with a band of silver beads, to show a double ruffle of em- broidered lace underskirt, and in the back the skirt fell over in a four-inch ruffle just below the waist line. This costume had a wired court train and the decolletege fell off the shoulders in @ manner reminiscent of the s: ties, There were tiny sleeves of puffed chiffon. SOME STRIKING DESIGNS IN TEA . GOWNS SHOWN, Among the prettiest tea gowns was one that displayed a pink chiffon tunic, ite kimono sleeves edged with mink, falling over a straight, short and moderately narrow akirt of white satin, Tiny silver bows were ar- ranged in a row down the front of this skirt. Another tea gown called “Night” was all black and gold, draped rather than fitted to the wearer, ‘A tailored sult of champagne silk corduroy showed a coat with a long, equare-cornered fur-edged panel at the back, reaching nearly to the skirt hem. On either side was a much shorter panel, also fur-edged, and in front two very short pointed panels crossed, A black etreet gown was shirred at the waistline, above and below which passed two narrow rows of fur in a girdle effect, A most at- tractive sports costume Included a loose coat of white lambswool, reach- ing barely to the hips, with a mink collar, a white corduroy skirt and an orange vest, Another tallored suit of gray velvet was confined at the nat- ural waistline by a pink velvet sash, garnished with gold cords, Red spate were worn with a walking sult of cloth. especially de- dress of cloth of silver over white satin, with pearl-colored chiffon draperies hung from the shoulders.

Then near dusk last night Mra. von Krebs saw the murderer lurking near her home at No. 704 Ninth avenue, waiting for her to appear. Sick with fear, she ran to the West Forty-seventh street station and cried out for protection. “Von Krebs is waiting to kill me!" she moaned. “He is tho man who killed Mre.
