THE TIE WILL BE KEYNOTE FOR
MAN'S CLOTHING.
GREEN AND PURPLE SHADES
Men's Trousers Will Not be Pegtop
Again How Philadelphia Tailors
are Trying to Make the Fashions for
This Country.
The tlo will govern the clothes of
the well-dressed man this spring and
summer. It Is the keynote of his
dress , it must be a light tie , ranging
In color from gray through green to
, . , ( < * ' 'Xy purple and arrange the rest of his cos-
1 i tumo to harmonize with It. Even his
socks must bo of the same hue ns his
tlo.
Ills hat will bo cither of soft felt
or straw. If felt he will find that to
be Inconspicuously dressed ho must
wear a light gray or some other shade
J. which will satisfy the demand for
. light colors , with a telescoped crown
J.i. and slightly crimped brim. In the
\\i. \ \ slraws the plain sailor of smooth
. . straw will predominate , although In
the east rough weaves promise to bo
popular. The pauama continues In
favor and will bo of standard shapes.
A considerable drop In the price of
first class Panamas promises to make
this hat more widely worn than over.
Other soft straws , such as the Leg
horn , are also encroaching ou Iho fa
vor of Ihe pauama. Black will bo
practically the only color In derbies.
The collar will bo Iho low double
style which prevailed last summer at
all Informal occasions. For more elab
orate costuming the wing collar Is
proper. This collar Is now recognized
for wear with tuxedos although It has
failed to make good with formal evenIng -
Ing dress.
The tlo will bo the keynote of the
costume. Tints of green and purple
will predominate , and the gray and
"Alice" or "Longworth" blue will en
joy considerable popularity. Wide
four-in-hands will prevail. Shaped
string ties will also be correct. Gray
nscots will como to the fore on all oc
casions which demand a frock coat.
The coat will bo long and either single -
glo or double-breasted. The notice
able features are the long lapel and
low opening , showing Ihe lop of the
vest , slight shaping at the waist line
and slight spring to the skirts. The
deep vent either In the center or at.
the sides will bo used somewhat The
shoulders will not bo so broad as for
merly. The walstcoal will be single-
breasted and cut rather low. Fancy
vests will bo worn In the west.
Trousers will bo full but straight.
The spring hip and pegtop effect are
relegated to Ihe past. There will belittle
little , If any difference In width from
the thigh to the ankle. On outing
trousers the cuff will bo employed but
it will not be so prevalent as in for
mer years.
j Shotes will be both black and tan
/ , * " with a tendency to the dull finishes of
' , the leather. In high shoes buttons
will be the rage , and some of Ihe
younger set promise to hold with the
button half shoe , but the more effec
tive lace fastening will bo the favorite
In Oxfords.
Hosiery will be in solid colors and
materials. Dotted and striped socks
will be on the market with the open
work goods but are losing In popular
ity slowly. Gauze is the most proper
thing. The colors In hosiery will de
pend upon the shade of the tie.
The overcoat will be light gray ,
broad In the shoulder , slightly shaped
In the waist and daring jn the skirts ,
which fall a little below the knee. It
will button even lower than the coat
and with a deep vent In the back of
the coat Is the most distinctive gar
ment of the year. The plain box crav-
anotto remains In favor as a raincoat
and will bo worn very much. The top
coat will liold Its own.
GAY CLOTHES FOR MAN.
Philadelphia Tailors to Lead Revolt
Against the Sombre and Sedate.

petus the Associated Merchant Tail
ors of Philadelphia are conducting an

of a Broad street hotel. To show how
much greater Is the merit of the "New
American styles" over the English
creations , about fifty London suits are
exhibited alongside those made hero.
The English suits are all upon the
general lines that have prevailed for
half a century stiff , somber and un
compromising. If this exhibition
brings the success that Its promoters
expect , the Philadelphia tailors Intend
to become the fashion setters for the
nation.
In one case every button Is a hand-
carved dog's head , and In another
golden half eagles are used. In the
wide variety displayed there IB a four-
buttoned white waistcoat and another
of buff , all ablossom with green flour
do Us.
Braid Is a strong feature of the
dross suit It Is of cording and ruim
on all the seams of the coat and Irons
ITS. The coat Is lined with gray ullk
! of a shade slightly darker than the
outer material.

Sioux flty , In. , March 13. Though
75 years of llfo have powdered with
while ( ho head and bent the shoul
ders of C. W. Perry , of Emerson , Nob. ,
hlH heart IH UK young as ever , and
while In Sioux City today ho wait hunt
ing for a matrimonial agency In the
hopes of getting a wlfo. Ho declares
he ban $ ISO ( ) In cold ciiHh , doeH not
care where he liven , and would do bin
hoHt to please the woman who would
honor him by becoming his wlfo.
Perry seems to bo a man on whom
the cares of llfo Hit lightly. He IIOH
a distinctly humorous face , likes a
joke and IH extremely desirous of hav
ing a woman to share bin laugh.
Unmindful of the Cold.
In splto of hlH yearn , Perry IH as
halo and hearty as a man of ' 10. When
other people wore huddling up In their
ovprcoats today Perry was braving
the winlry blasts like n buck moose ,
lie looked the typical frontiersman.
Ho worn a broad-brimmed Hlockman'H
hat , had a handkerchief knotted round
his neck , cowpiinchor fashion , and
sported cattlemen's gloves.
He came to Sioux City llils morning
from Emerson , Neb. , and wlillo trans
acting business In one of Ihi ! HtoreH
took a fancy to a letter carrier who
ontoroil Iho store on his round.
"Say , follor , " said Perry , beckoning
with a linger.
"Hullo , old wild and wooly , " said
the letter carrier. "What d'yo want ?
A letter from your banker or one. from
your bcHt girl ? Wo keep all kinds on
tap hero. "
Tackles Mall Carrier.
"I want a wife , " said Perry , with n
serious face.
"You do ? Whoso ? Ha ! Ha ! IIn ! "
chortled the mall carrier , laughing at
his own Joke.
"Don'l get too gay , young man , "
said Perry , frowning.
"Well , I'll bo . Say , you're a
sport , you are. "
"Should say I am. Boys to hum call
mo Commodore Porry. I'm true blue
kind , I nm. "
"Well I should say. Are you HO-
rloiis about the wlfo ? I know one or
two husbands that would like to get
rid of tholrfi. How would that do ? "
"Aw ! You're too fresh for a young
'un. You're so sharp , wonder you
don't cut yourself. You're a hollow
ground razor , Hint's what you aro.
You don't need no grindstone. Go
away , young man ; you make mo tired. "
Nothing Doing Anywhere.
After leaving the store Perry wandered -
dored round the town , taking side
glances under the hats of Hie femin
inity In the hopes that one of them
might bo stricken with a midden and
everlasting passion for him. His
hopes , however , we dashed to the
ground.
"What kind of a town Is this ? " ho
demanded. "Not oven a matrimonial
agency about the place. Guess people
are too busy looking Horlous to think
of getting married.
"Say , I want a wlfo and want one
badly. I am 75 years of ago , but I
ain't no dern rheumatic , so you might
ns well quit helping rno to walk. " Ho
addressed his remarks to a Tribune
reported who accosted him.
No Church Member Wanted.
"Look hero , do you know of a wo
man who wants a husband ? If you
do , I'm the man. I'm tired of living
alone and cooking my own grub an'
cookln" It bad , too ; so I want a woman
to kinder chum with. I don't care for
one who pnls a long face 'coz the
kettle has blled over. I want one who
Is congenial , who can laugh. I've an
old fiddle and $1,800 in cash nn' want
to take llfo easy. Now the woman I
want must like music and take a joke.
What's the use of always being
grouchy , that's what I say. Why , wo
can have all kinds of fun , mo playing
the flddlo and she sitting acrost from
mo , knitting or sowing or some such
thing. "
"How old must the woman bo ? "
"I don't care how old she Is. But
say , feller , she must not belong to any
church. No , sir ; I don't want any
wife of inlno to belong to a church. I
like to enjoy my joke , I do , and take
a laugh now and then. I don't want a
long face all the time. "
Perry has been a resident of Emerson -
son , Nob. , for the last forty years and
has often visited Sioux City , where
ho does his trading. Ho declared ho
was willing to llvo wherever his wlfo
elects.

out a gro.it deal of the commodity.
The Hiigar factory iiucHllon has
again become of InloroHl. in the Norlh
I'lalto country. LIIHI siiinuior the
Standard licet Sugar company through
Mr. Loavllt , ItH agent , entered Into a
contract to erect a factory here , say
n report from there , for operation In
the fall of 1900 , and contracts wore
entered Into with farmers to ralso
(5,000 ( acres of heels for three years.
The American Beet Sugar company
saw nt oncn that If the Standard com
pany erected a factory hero the Grand
Island factory would get no boots from
thin locality , whence It has been draw
ing a largo part of Its supply during
Iho liiHt three years. The agents of
Iho American company got In their
work very effectively with a number
of the farmers who had contracted to
grow beets for the Standard and suc
ceeded In getting a sulllclont number
of them to cancel their contracts with
Iho Standard company. As soon as
that was done the Standard company
announced that no sugar factory would
bo built hero this year. Then the
agents of both Iho American and the
Standard companies reduced the price
of boots hero from ? 5 to $ ' 1.50 per ton
and started In to obtain contracts lo
supply their respective factories at
Grand Island and at Ames. Now Gu-
genhelmor has an agent hero with a
proposition that ho will complete a
million-dollar factory hero for opera
tion this fall If the citizens here will
put In ? 7.ri,000 worth of land nt cur-
rout prices and take stock In the com
pany for the same and ho guarantees
to pay | 5 per ton for all boots , and a
10 per cent dividend to the stockhold
ers. The matter
Is being worked up
and the probabilities are that they
will have a factory In splto of the
American and Standard companies.
