THE SEMIAVEEKLY TRIBUNE. NORTH PLATTE, NEBRASKA. DEADLOCK 15 ENDED OLD BRITISH WARSHIP COMES FOR CARGO One of the Many Taffeta Gowns for Midsummer PRESIDENT ANNOUNCES RECESS APPOINTMENTS. IN WILL SOON BEGIN DUTIES Loomls and Allen Both Well Known Bryan Men Selected Flynn and McCune Chosen. This dress of royal blue taffeta Is one of the best and most attractive that have appeared among a groat number of models employing this silk. It Is of that soft variety called chiffon taffeta, and Is the coolest and crisp est of gowns for midsummer, outside the world of wash fabrics. The skirt has a plain-fitted yoke ex tending to the hips, to which the body is sewed. This latter Is made of the silk laid in close, single box plaits and is finished with a two and one-half inch hem at the bottom. Three rows of stitching, set close together, and parallel to each other, sow the plaits down at the top to the yoke and make a neat finish. The hem is also ma chine stitched. The coat is cut with a -plain yoke also. The lower edge of the yoko is cut in shallow curves with an incon spicuous point at each side on tho bust. The point reappears in the cen ter of tho back. Reversing tho order of things in tho skirt, tho yoko over laps tho plaits in the Jackat and but two rows of stitching are used in join ing it to tho body. A rolling collar and turned-back cuffs, as plain as can be, take care of tho finishing of neck and sleeves. A plain bolt made over a crinolino foundation, three inches wide, Is tacked to tho jacket a littlo below the normal waist line. It is or Attractive Hats That Not much that Is now may bo said about the hats for littlo girls, since mothers have been almost of one mind In selecting bonnot-liko shapes for tho fair littlo faces of their daughters. Uut hero Is something new in a soft hat of ribbon, and also a remodeled hat with braid brim and laco crown, which the homo milliner will enjoy making for ber own or for some other small lady. The first hat is made of satin ribbon, m a light color, about four incheB in width. Hardly two yards of It are aeeded, a littlo over a yard for ono length and about three-quarters for tho second for a child of live to six years. Tho longer length of ribbon is to bo shirred over a cord on ono edgo and gathered on tho other. Tho shorter length Is gathered cn ono edgo and lolned to tho gathered edge of the longer ribbon by a piping covered with a narrow bias band of satin or with a narrow ribbon. Tho remaining edgo Is to bo gathered up with threo shirred pintucks in a group near it. Tho gath ering thread at tho edgo is drawn up to form the top of tho cap. Ready-made ruchlng"ln a double fold and a plaited frill of narrow laco are sowed In about the face. Tiny roses of chiffon, or ribbon, or little millinery flowers are sot about tho edgo and tho hat Is finished ready for lining. Tho lining is to bo cut from thin silk, or mull, matching tho ribbon. It is made namented with three ball buttons at tho front. They are forms covered with tho silk, and two of them are used on the cuffs In the manner shown In tho picture. White ball buttons of composition aro effectively used on gowns of blue or black taffeta and might bo substituted for those that aro silk-covered, to add snap to this trim suit. The neck is much Improved by a collar of whito poplin, or one of organ die, which rolls over tho coat collar and fulfills its mission of placing whito near the throat and face. A hat of malines and velvet, with tin flowers and small feather cockade at tho front, and a purse of 'dark blue leather, banded wuu wmio, aro accessories that add tono to a dress that Is distinguished by very niottPF iipslcnlnc. It seems very sim ple but tho best of talent is required to achieve simplicity and distinction at the same time. Graceful Finish. Corlse, turquoise aud violet are shades which are relieving the somber ness of many gowns, and on so many of tho evening dresses for young people tho garlands of small flowers make a graceful finish either on flounces or above them. Mamma Can Make In two pieces a circle at the center and a straight band hemmed on ono edgo and gathered into tho circle ou tho other. The hat with braid brim has a small crown made of a circular piece of laco gathered about tho edgo and sewed to it A frill of lace, not quito so wldo as tho brim, Is sewed to tho base of tho crown and falls over tho brim. Fi nally a collar is made by covering a strip of crinoline with silk in a light color, and covering this again with a band of laco. This Is set on tho brim over tho crown and tacked down. Small satin covered button molds aro sowed about tho crown at Intervals and a little bow, with hanging end, is mado of narrow satin ribbon and set on to tho brim at each side. Chooso soft thin ribbons of high lus ter for children's millinery and vary tho width nccordlng to tho size of tho little ono's head. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Water Lily Hats. Luclle, tho dressmaker, says that water lilies aro coming Into fashion as a trimming for white hatH, which aro going to be so much favored this summer. And certainly thoy have this in their favor that they glvo an im pression of coolness, more especially if they bo worn with a dress which combines white and leaf green. Washington.

Scrambling to his feet and without regaining his lint, which had rolled to tho curb, tho avonuo merchant turned to tho driver of tho littlo pulling machine and exclaimed in his excitement: "I ' beg pardon, Blr!" and weut hastily on his way.
