Pongee and kindred alike In the natural taste toav ' &" aviw "and mere Important piaoe'on fashion's list, and 'many smart ooAt, and skirt . models , and three-ploce models are shown In this material, '' From the severely tailored coat and skirt of pongee, which promises to be popular, to the elaborate model,' lavishly braided in self-tone soutache or embroidered In self tone and made up with one of the fantas tic little kimono coats, all grades of dressi ness (hideous word!) are represented In these pongee costumes, and though pongee, rajah, shantung, eta, are made up In all colors the natural hue Is the favorite with authoritative markers. Mohair is practical to a deigree that Is a a fault In the eyes of the ultra fashionable, and In' dark hues. It Is scorned by these same fashionable folk, though no material in tho world makes a more satisfactory frock for summer traveling. The new mohairs are, however, astonishingly soft and are shown In a great variety of shades and of one tone designs, and In the very light colors they are undeniably attractive. Recognlting this fact some smart tailors are making up severe coat and skirt cos tumes of mohair In light pastel blue, rose, banana yellow, stiver gray, lilac, eto. One tailor has had much success with a model of this sort, whose skirt is kilted and whose half length, eeml-fltUng coat has big white pearl buttons and coat collar and cuffs of whits linen, line striped In black. In light blue and In pale lavander this suit Is excellent, and quite as good Is a somewhat similar model whose coat Is a little shorter, whose light hued material Is a one-tens check mohair Instead of plain mohair, and whose collar and cuffs are of hand embroidered white linen Instead of stripe. Variations of the Tea. Without excepting even the luncheon for a few congenlals, the tea holds first place In the favor of those who would entertain or be entertained nowadays. It seems like a broad statement, but a glance over the soolety chronicles will confirm It. A tea, however, does not necessarily mean a re ception or anything approaching It In elaborateness, still all such functions are properly classed as teas, for the term Is so comprehensive as to Include everything from the gathering of a few friends for a ohat and a cup of tea to the elaborate re ception to present an out-of-town guest, a debutante or even a celebrity. In Us possibilities the teas are unrivaled, particularly the smaller, less formal af fairs at that season when a grate fire, a few lighted candles and a scattering of flowers, may supplement the gathering. There Is a cosiness and charm about a tea table, with Its singing kettle and dainty appointments, that nothing can rival, and no woman could ask a better advantage than to preside there and dispense Its sim ple hospitality. Some dainty sandwiches and cake, with a tew confections If desired, Is the only accompaniment necessary to the tea or coffee. The guests serve them selves and each other, though some host esses prefer the assistance of a friend or two. The wraps, If they are In season, should be removed, but the hat may be worn with propriety It desired. For the more formal tea a man, or for the less formal occasion a maid or an as sisting friend, stands outside the drawing room door asking the names of the guests as they come downstairs, and announcing It for the benefit Cf the hostess, who usu all receives Just Inside. An assisting woman frequently serves In this office, relieving the reception of any stiffness For the more pretentious teas the dining room Is employed, with Its attractively decorated table and sandwiches, salad. Ires, cake and bonbons, tea, coffee and bouillon, are served by three or four waiters, aa the occasion demanda It may be added that small napkins may be ussd. but are not necessary. HINTS FOR THE GARDENER Some EnrrftftioDi at to How to Plant and Foster Growth. CARE OF GARDEN BED AND WINDOW BOXES Selection and Planting; of Seeds, Watering; and Carina for Plants ad Other Usefal Inform nation. The Clvlo Improvement league of Omaha offers the following timely suggestions and directions for the planting and care of seeds In gardens and window boxes: The seeds can be planted In your garden as directed on the packet, or some csn be planted the last of March In a Vox filled with four or five Inches of fine, rich soil. Put the box In a sunny place and sprinkle every day to keep the roots from getting dry. If very cold cover the box at night. About May 1, when the plants are a few Inches high, transplant on a wet day to the garden. Cypress vine, hyacinth bean, morning glories and nasturtiums should be planted in the garden, as they are difficult to transplant. Any box six or eight Inches deep which you can fasten to the window will answer for planting, but It Is best to have one aa long as your window Is wide, six or eight Inches deep and twelve or fifteen Inches wide. Fill with fine, rich soil and fasten to the sunniest window, or such boxes can be placed on a fence Instead of near the window. Plant morning glories on the side nearest the house, training them upward on strings. Climbing nasturtiums should be planted near the outside to hang down over the box. In the middle of the box plant calllopsis, slnnias, marigolds, petunias or pinks. Thin out the plants so that they are four or five Inches apart Do not forget to water every day, as they dry out very quickly. The soil should be kept moist to the bottom of the box. Where to Make Yonr Flower Beds. Select the sunniest part of your yard, but avoid a place where the dripping from the roof will fall on the bed. Best effects are produced by planting all of one variety in one place. Dig up the flower bed as early In spring as possible. Dig deep a full foot. Some rich earth, well rotted manure or leaf mold from the woods mixed In will give you better flowers. Rake the bed every few days so as to break up all the lumps on the surface or rub the soli between your hands so as to make It fine on the surface. How to Water. 1 Until the seeds are well up, the soil must bo kept moist by sprinkling every day lf S necessary. Watch that the soil does not get dry, for lf it does the little plants wid dry up and die. When the plants are two or three inches high a .good, thorough watering every two or three days is bet ter than sprinkling every day. Water only In the morning and evening. If crowded the plants will not do well. When the plants are two or three Inches high pull up enough to give each plant plenty of room. (See seed packet.) Do this on a cloudy day when the noil la moist. The plants you pull up can be planted in another bed or given to some friends.. , An old kitchen fork or small, flat.' thin stick can be used In transplanting the small plants, taking up a little soil with each plant. The plants will flower longer If not al lowed to go to seed. If you wish to save seeds allow only a few flowers to remain. The more you pick the more you will have. Your rooms will look prettier and brighter if you put fresh flowers In them every day or two. You may know of someone who Is side who would enjoy some of your flowers. Things to Remember. Dig deep and make the soil fine on the surface. Keep pulling out the weeds all summer. Sprinkle the seeds every day. Then water the bed thoroughly every few days during the whole summer. Pick your flowers every day. Keep your garden neat. Flowers require attention all summer. By attending to theee things you will have flowers all summer. (For vegetables, see seed packet.) Glycerine Tees. Olycerlne and oatmeal made Into a paste with rosewater makes a splendid face loUon to remove the affects of cold wind. As an addition to the bath, glycer ine scented with rose perfume will Impart a dulghtful freshness and delicacy to the skin, the propoftlon being four ouncee of glycerine to one gallon of water EVir cough or oold a tablespoon of glycerine in a cup or hot milk will give Instant relief. Two parts of glycerine to one part of powdered willow charcoal will also help In case of a severe cough. Housekeepers' Exchange. Wash petticoats will last twice as long If a piece of tape be stitched flat around the bottom. To clean galvanised water buckets take coal oil, nib them well all over with a rag or brush. Will make them look like new. After having the hands In lye water wash them In clear water. Then wash in vinegar snd do not wipe. This stops the smarting and leaves the hands soft. To clean brass or copper, dip cloth In vinegar and then in common table salt and rub article to be cleaned. Pour boiling water ovw It and wipe dry. A folded newspaper placed on the tray to the gas stove under the burners catches all the dirt and saves cleaning the tray. Can be changed every day. If folded llat there is no danger of its catching fire. To make cut glass shine brilliantly, wash with bruuh in warm water and soap, dip in alcohol and lay in Jeweler's sawdust until dry, then brush with soft, dry brush. A carpet stained with Ink can be cleaned by sque.exing lemon Juice on the spot and covering with salt. Let it remain thus for several hours and wash with a flannel rag wrung out of warm water and a little am monia. To have cucumbers nice and crisp slice Into glass Jars, put on top and set next to the Ice. In this way they do not scent the Ice box and may be prepared early, and not at the last moment when everything Is confusion. A dainty handkerchief may be made from a man s large size handkerchief, cut Into quartera Kaoh quarter will have two sides to be hemstitched to correspond with the opposite sides. With the addition of tiny Fiench knots In these hems (colored thread If desired and a lace edge, one will be well repaid for a few busy moments by four costly little articles with little expense.

NO CONSPIRACY SHOWN, DECLARES RWYER Holds Defeadanta Acted Wlthla the Law When They Advanced Mosey to Homesteaders forlmproTements. United States District Attorney Goes be gan the opening argument for the govern ment In the land trial at I o'clock Wednes day afternoon. His argument was a dean, lucid review of the vast volume of testi mony which he undertook to show proved the charge of conspiracy and subornation of perjury, as well as the motive back of all of the alleged fraudulent land entries to obtain possession of public lands for private uses. Mr. Goes spoke for an hour and twenty minutes, and was followed by Mr. D. O. Dwyer of riattsmouth of counsel for the defense. Mr. Dwyer's argument was along the line that the defendants In this case had not been shown by any evidence thus far pro duced to have entered into any agreement or conspiracy with anyone to defraud the government out of an acre of land. He held that no construction of law could con vict these men of a crime In locating home steaders, or In agreeing to pay the ex penses of homesteaders during the time they held the land or advancing money to them for Improvements on the lands that they might make final proof, had there been any violation of law, but on the other hand was In full compliance with the rulings of the land office. Mr. Dwyer concluded his argument at ( o'clock, and Mr. Qurley will take up the closing argument for the de fense Thursday moruing. Mr. Rush will close for the government. By agreement, the argument Is limited to three hours to the aide. Character Wltaesses Testify. No Important evidence was Introduced during the afternoon hearing In the land trial aside from the testimony of the good character of the defendants. Those testify ing were Supreme Court Commissioner N. D. Jackson of Nellgh, Frances A. White of Omaha, Captain H. El Palmer, Judge Paul Jesson of Nebraska City, Peter Thor ssn of Gordon, Postmaster J. H. Crowder of Gordon, Judge W. II. Westover of Sher idan county, Judge H. O. T ravers of Cass county, H. D. Wheeler of Plattsmouth and Dr. W. B. McDowell of Merrlman. J. D. Scott of Rushville, court reporter for that district, was called to the stand to Impeach the evidence of I. D. Hull re lating to the statement that Hull bad Im puted to Huntington that all old soldier filings were to be placed with different ranchmen In Sheridan county. The witness reported the preliminary hearing of Hull before the United States commissioner at Rushville, when the cases were being flrt Investigated. James K. Reld of Hay Springs, second vice president of the Maverick Loan and Trust company, testified briefly as to his being at Gordon on October S, t, IS and IS, 1904. and the. conversation had with the old soldier entrymen at those times, and that Fred Hoyt was not present at the first of these conferences, nor did he par ticipate in the last conference. The defense announced that it rested at t:46 o'clock. With the opening of court Wednesday morning Ami B. Todd was again on the stand. He entered a general and specifics drnlal of being In any conspiracy with Ilarlett Richards, W. O. Comstock, Thomas M. Huntington. Fted Hoyt. C. O. Jameson, F. M. Wolcott. James K. Reld and Aqullla Triplet!, directly or Indirectly for the purpose of defrauding the govern ment out of land, or for suborning per jury in the matter of alleged fraudulent land Clings in furtherance of any such conspiracy. The cross-examination of Mr. Todd was brief and related simply to the contract he had with Bartlett Richards in locating soldiers and soldiers widows' filings within the Spade ranch enclosure, which was but a reiteration of his evidence in chief Tues day afternoon. He was asked by Mr. Rush, relative to certain letters that were taken from him by the secret service officers at Denver, which brought forth a spirited rejoinder from Mr. Gurley: "I object to this Injustice on the part of Mr. Rush. No letters were taken from Mr. Todd. He gave these letters up freely and voluntarily." Hoyt Testlfl.es Same Way. Fred Hoyt, vice president of the Maverick Loan and Trust company of Gordon, the third of the defendants tn the present case, was the last important witness. His testi mony was In effect that he had no Interest whatever In locating entrymen within the Spade ranch enclosure, nor was he directly or indirectly interested In any of the Richards and Comstock transactions. He had few if any business relations with any of the defendants In the present or previous ' Pereonal knowledge ihii i competitive age and poeeeteor in the front A vast fund of personal knowledge is reaDy essential to the acluevement of the highest excellence in any field of human effort.
