dacy ia Telegram to Portland.
Stirring anew the fracas over the
love letters which recently startled
his constituency in Oregon, A. W. Lar
ferty. member of congress, informs the
Portland Journal thusly:
"Washington, Aug. 11. I shall sue
the Oregonlan Publishing company for
malicious libel Immediately upon my
return home. Last Wednesday's arti
cle in the Oregonlan stating that I had
been taken Into custody ia 1908 for in
sulting a married woman is absolutely
false. The Oregonlan knew it to bo
false. - .

the 'general delivery' lady it was writ
ten under such circumstances as not
to be an afront and the Oregonlan
kaew it. I did not afterward call the
lady upon the phone except by her In
vitation. , -: ; : ;
Challenges Proof.
"If it can be proved that I was ever
arrested in my life upon any charge 1
will resign from office. I made that
challenge In' the campaign and I re
peat it now. :
"As to the Kubel "affair here fn
Washington Papa Kubel did not threa
ten me to mV face, but did so only by
letter. : ' f. ' ' , .
"I immediately replied-to his letter
daring him to call at my office and
carry out his cowardly threat. The
Washington papers published my re
ply to Kubel, but the Oregonlan was
not fair enough to do so."
A letter heretofore unpublished in
Portland shows, how strongly Mr. Laf
ferty made his 'denial that he wrote
the letter to Miss Kubel, the Wash
ington school girl, when he was first
accused of writing It. : The letter was
In his own handwriting, and he has
since so admitted". . But when Kubel
first accused him, Lafferty sat down
and wrote the following,- which he
personally delivered to the girl's fath
er,,, thereby shifting the blame to his
1 clerks': ; ,, , i -A v
What Lafferty .Wrote.
' "Mr. S. J, Kubel Dear Sir: You

FADS AND FASHIONS.
New York, Aug. 15. Although the
women In Paris have taken up the lit
tle coat with enthusiasm, as one of
the most charming' features of this I
summer's fashions. It Is a remarkable
fact that these little coats have found
but few friends In this country so fa
It la true, some of the importing hous
es here are displaying a few charming
models of such coats and here and
there one may see a woman wearing
one, butin Paris they are all the rage
and deservedly so.
The prominent French designers,
who have shown some of the hand
somest models of such coats do not
wish the little coats to be considered
separate coats. , For that reason they
repeat the color or trimming of the
coat somewhere abovit the frock, very
lightly perhaps, very 'unobtrusively,
but firmly enough to Ilnk.the compon
ent parts of the ' costume into T one
homogeneous whole. Yet, this is not
always the case, and the thrifty and
clever woman may make her piquant
little coat' do duty with more than one
costume if she so wishes.
Broderle anglaiseja a popular ma
terial for the short coat, and in linen
or llnon, as the French call the tflne
nandkerchief linen to distinguish It
from Toile, which Is our .linen, with
revers and trimming of silk or velvet
or plain linen. It works out very
charmingly. Where worn with a sheer
lingerie frock Into whose trimming a
little of the broderie Anglalse enters,
such a coat is very pretty, but its use
is by no means limited to association
with the "sheer white lingerie stuffs.
This open work embroidery is usual
in handsome quality upon everything
from silk muBlIn to satin and serge.
Used under sheer semi-transparent
mater'als of color or black this popu
lar embroidery is to be seen on all
kinds of frocks, its bold openwork de
sign showing charmingly through the
cloudy veilings. Bands of the open
work embroidery trim silk, marqui
sette, chiffon, tulle, linen, and every
material, and it Is combined with the
finest and the heaviest of laces. i
' Short coats are formed of lace as
well as of embroidery, though the lace
Is more often used in combination
with embroidery than alone, and the
c.oat, entirely of lace, seldom has teh
cachet of the little silk coat. Big col
lars of lace or embroidered muslin al
most hide some of the little silk coats.
A short ffeta costume, with a coat
of the taffeta, bordered in bouillonees
and sporting a big fichu of flat, over

as well as some very delightful results
With the lowering of the modish waist
ue this girdled arrangement natur-
auy assumes a Russiun blouse char
acter, and this has given rise to a ru-
mor that the Russian blouse will be
here again in the autumn. ' At all
events, belted coats of one kind or an
other are fairly sure to find a place
among fall modes

cause of the narrowness and plainness
or skirts at the back. Many women,
however, dislike the front lacing cor
sets. New corsets are very low at i
the top, to give a low-busted fljure,
but at the lower edge the material is
built down to keep the hips in sub
jection. Ths very newest notion in lingtrle
Is the nightgown embroidered in col
or, and some of these little gowns are
exceedingly dainty. ' The ribbon, run
through the embroidered . eyelets,
of course, matches the embroidery In

bargains are to be picked up now in
graceful fichus and the one-Bided coat
frills which are so smart.
The sailor collar, made of . sheer
lawn or organldle with an inch-wide
hem At, the edge, is a. pretty addition
to' cotton" frocks of dalntj coloring,
and these collars are matched by
cuffs which suggest the deeply hem
med organdie cuffs worn by a widow.
The regulation four-in-hand tie in
all the new colors of silk and other
materials is worn with the linen col
lar and strictly tailored shirtwaist
this season. These ties are also tied
with a loose knot caught by a colored
silk ring.- Color is used to quite an
extent in tailored neckwear In vari
ous touches, either in the trimming or
In the material. There are also many
pretty novelties in bow form.
Silk and satin bows in combination
with white lace are popular. Black
satin and white satin, or Batln of color
and lace are in many attractive forms.
Novelties In the form of flowers and
fruit are worn at the baBe of the- high
collar to give an effective touch of
color. Black velvet oi the favored
foundation for these little novelties
and the flowers or fruit of ribbon are
attached to it or are arranged in dan
gling form. . ,
Tailored stocks and Jabots are made
from both white and colored handker
chiefs, to be worn with a colored col
lar or a collar with a touch of color
match the Jabot. Cut off a small cor
ner from each handkerchief to make. a
tiny bow at the top. Use the three-
cornered sections of both handker
chiefs to form ends of the Jabots,
Small hats, with the sugar loaf mod
el as the leader, are expected to be
fashionable this autumn.

REALLY STRANGE TARN.
A
Good Success Marks luitiul Hunting

Before the grouse law had been out
six hours, County Assesor Dave Clark
unravels a grouse yarn which has
spurred nimrods to increased action in
iha maA t .i., ...
, ul mac Dis menus can vouch
tor his sobriety,. Mr. Clark has placed
himself in a position to be called a
nature, fakir, and other cognomens
nt0 Prevarlcator'
Listen to what
"This morning while coming to La
' ?rande from nly Cove home wlth a
I Inn A Lni.lAH V t
load of berries I experienced a stranea
incident with frightened grouse . It
may have been by winning smile or
the barking of my gasoline burner
that attracted the grouse to me; yet
this I cannot say for sure, but verily,
up with three grouse flying toward Lu
Grande in frantic fear as though some
ruthless hunter had scared them from
their feeding grounds, where, unsus
pecting of the fact that the grouse
law was out the birds had been caught
unawares. This in itself was not
strange, but when the birds lighted
on the tarpaulin covering my berry
boxes, I turned in surprise. There
were three of them and each seemed
pleased to see me, I found at least
that they were relieved if not satisfied
with the conditions. After flobbing
about, acquainting themselves with
the new environments, they soon set
tled down and caught the oscllatlon of
the automobile and It was not until I
got inside the city limits that they
were scared away. They spied a shot-
gun crowd far down Adams avenue
and squawking a hasty adieu, they
left me. No, I didn't attempt to shoot
any of them. I might have done so
but for the fact I firmly believed they
would follow me Into the stewing pot,
and I am Btlli Bure they had that in
tention until they saw the gunmen."
as a nttiirg peroration to this
strange fable,. Mr. "Clark assured his
listeners he had Imbibed onlf in cool
ing waters that flow In Mill creek.
When last seen Mr. Clark was still
musing on the incident, his legs hook
ed over the corner of a table, and hU
briar working like a charm.

tended for all the hunters. Manv were
able to bag the limit before going to
work this morning, among them beine

Al Andrews' and Ted Buehler had
the limit bag at 7 o'clock this morning.
other parties reported fully as enod
