New Arrival
A new arrival among coats fore
shadows no radical change In the
styles which are expected to prevail
with the coming of fall. Except for a
little additional length It might he
plnssed as a model designed for spring.
It envelops the llgure us completely,
with a collar high enough to more
than cover the neck, ample width and
n length of skirt that Is only six
inches shorter than the dress worn
tinder It. There are big patch pockets
and a rather narrow belt that extends
vonly across the front of the coat. Tho
coats of spring fastened at the waist
line, however, while this one extends
Its line of buttons half way or more
down the front.
The model pictured Is shown In tan,
blue, mustard color, brown, and In
Indistinct mixture. It Is bordered at
tho bottom with a band of black satin,
As Worn by Conservative Brides.
If the bride Is one of those who
likes to bo conservative In tho styles
selected for her gown nnd veil she
may wear tho veil as shown In tho
picture. The wreath Is arranged In
the fashion of a coronet nnd tho veil
envelops tho llgure. Other styles
may come and go, but this one goes
on forever. Perhaps that Is because
tho wreath suggests a crown and be
cause the arrangement of It Is almost
universally becoming.
' For the bride who decides that
(something new suits her personality
(better, or Is better suited to the sort
'of wedding she elects to have, there
Jure many piquant and novel ways for
mounting the wedding veil. In nearly
all of them little caps of lace support
the tulle, hut there are caps of tulle,
caps of pearl heads, or even hats of
tulle, from which the veil, always am
ple, floats about the llgure. Ono of
the prettiest drapes hns a llttlo olose
flttlng cap of flne lace like a "IJaby
Stuart" cnp. The veil Is draped over
this so that a short length of It falls
,over the face, barely reaching to the
chin. It Is caught to the lace cap at
,cach side by small sprays of orange
blossoms and there Is a slender half
wreath of them brought from ono sldo
Among Coats.
and tho cuffs and collar nre of tho
same material. Tho cuffs are notice
ably smaller than those on coats of
the current season, nnd tho raglnn
sleeves promise a continuance of tho
vogue for them which has been so
useful to designers. It has helped,
them In getting the required Hare, In
making variety In models, nnd assures
easy adjustment In the garment.
The cont pictured Is of a kind that
will prove useful to the motorist and
serve for almost any wear. If ono(
must choose at this between-seasons
time It Is a model worth copying. In,
fact such a coat may be relied upon
for several seasons' wear without ap
pearing old-fashioned. The materials
used In It arc lasting nnd tho style!
selected for good stuffs should be con
servative enough to Inst as long as
they do.
to tho other across tho back. The
long veil nt tho back falls from this
wreath to tho end of the train.
Another drapo which brides of this
summer favor employs a hand about?
the brows and head as a support for
the veil. This band may bo of white
satin or of cloth-of-sllver or of some
small blossom set close nnfl flat to It.
Tho veil Is lnld In close high plaits
extending across tho back from tem
ple to temple. They nre graduated In
height so that they are tallest nt the
center of the back. The very short
veil over tho faco Is tho newest ofl
all. with Its supporting cap of lace.
Hut whatever stylo the bride may se
lect after experimenting with several,
sho has tho comforting assurance that
nothing else in tho world Is qulto so
becoming as a wedding veil.

Norfolk, Va Bearing a masBago from
Emperor William to President Wil
son, running tho gauntlet of Innumer
able dangers from mines, sea-sweep-era
and enemy war ships, and bringing
a cargo of dyo-stuffs, chemicals and
mall, tho Gorman under-sea merchant
man, tho Doutchland, quietly slipped
Into Chesapeako bay at 1:4G last Sun
day morning.
It was tho comnlotlon of a 4.000
mllo sea vvyage, the. longest and most
hftxardoua over attempted by any sub
marine.
Tho Deutschland carries, mounted
In Us conning tower, two small guns,
of about three-Inch calibre. No tor
podo tubes aro visible. It Is capable
of submerging In less than two mln
utcs. On tho surface of tho water tho
Bubmerslblo has a speed of from two
to threo knots an hour more than
tho average merchant steamer.
According to Captain Frederick
Cocklo, n Norfolk pilot and tho first
American pilot to board tho Deutsch
land, the crew wore regulation uni
forms of German merchant seamen.
No flag was displayed when tho
Doutschland first appeared off tho
capos. Later, when inside tho bay,
tho Gorman merchantman ensign wbb
raised. Captain Cocko said tho com
mander of tho Doutschland wns ex
tremely frank In stating his mission
lo tho United Stntes, that of institut
ing an under-sea merchantman export
and import business between tho
United States and Germany.
Tho Doutschland left a German port
on Juno 2.1, nnd although it encoun
fercd a number of merchant ships and
bno war ship, tho commander said' ho
easily escaped detection by submerg
ing. Ho declared that the entire voy
ago was uneventful.
Apparently the vssel Is In perfect
condition nftor her long voyage. She
came up tho bay with six or eight feet
of free board showing, with conning
tower Btandlng high above. On each
eldo of her bow Is painted "Deutsch
land," and on her stern "Deutschland
Bremen." Tho boat Is consigned to A. Schu
macher & Co., Baltimore agents of
tho North German Lloyd lino nnd Its
:argo ttf tho Eastern Forwarding com
pany, a concern said to have been or
ganized within tho last few weeks
especially to handlo the business of
underwater liners.
Tho Deutschland Is not a converted
war craft, but a brand now commerco
carrier owned In Bremen and sent
hero on a purely commercial mission,
according to Henry G. Jlilken, tha
senior member of tho Schumacher con
cern. Sho belongs to tho Ozean
Rhoderel, Ltd. (Ocean Navigation
Co., Ltd.), and was launched at Kiel
In March.
Tho novel project was conceived
about nine months ago, Mr. Hilkon
said, by F. A. Lohmnnn, head of a
Bremen exporting and Importing con
corn, who organized tho Ocoan Navi
gation Co. Mr. Lohmnnn is the son
of a former director general of the
North German Lloyd Steamship Co.,
nnd has Important German commer
cial interests associated with him.
The undersea linor, Mr. Hllken un
derstands, is about 315 feet long and
thirty feet beam and is propelled by
two great dolsel oil engines. Sho Is aa
large, if not larger, than nny of the
Gorman naval submarines, and car
ries 750' tons dead weight of cargo.
"Afost of the information thnt was
nent to me," he said, "Is probably
carefully tucked away in a pigeon
hole of tho Brltlnh admiralty olllce,
but I do not caro now. Tho Deutsch
land Is here, nevertheless."
Mr. Hllken Is an American nnd hla
firm has been in business operating
Bhlps under tho American flag Blnco
1824. Carl A. Lucderltz, tho German
consul, is a member of tho firm.
To whom tho Deutschland's enrgo
is consigned Mr. Hllken said ho did
not know, but he believed It was go
ing to a number of concerns badly In
need of dyestuffs.
"This project was conceived," ho
said, "by German commercial Inter
ests, who wanted to reopen trado
with tho United States. We need
some of Gerniany'a commodities and
Germany needs some of ours. It Is a
puroly commercial proposition."
