I l new novelty French prints, so delight- I f f II I
10Nt.r the fashion events of
prlnfc, not the least Interesting
to the feminine world is ihe ar-
rlvl of Uie new parasols. Kaon year
brlntrs something distinctly individual
Itn these dainty and useful little acces
sories to the feminllne costume, and
women che world over are early on
'the qui vlve for the nrst announcement
of what the proper thing In parasols
fand sunshades is going to be whether
Ithe tendency will be toward the se
'verely plain In color and material, or
'toward the pretty fluffs and fripperies
of the beruffled and bcrlbboned
styles.
This year's parasols will be a com
promise between the two extremes.
Exaggerated ruffled effects will not be
seen, nor will the severely plain styles
be in favor. Strips of embroidery, with
openwork, or borders of gay colors, al
ternating with ploka dots In bright
hues, will rt"ileve the severity of the
untrimmed shades, and tiny ruffles of
narrow, tine lace, placed close together
and bordering the edge all around, to a
depth of from three uo five inches, .will
represent the more elaborate types,
combined with charmingly blended
tones in the finest of silken and nov
elty materials.
Some of the most exquisite color ef
fects ever devised tor parasol patterns
re being ehown this year. All the
lresden tones and the most delicate
of Oriental blendings are to be, found
In the beautiful silken prints of French
design and weave that are now on dis
play at the leading local dealers. Sev
eral of the styles in parasols that are
announced as the "leaders" for the
coming .season, chosen from the stock
of an exclusive shop, are shown here
with. "It is going to be almost exclusively
a white-und-black and a champagne
shade season," predicted the manager
of one shop. "The white and black
effects come In greater variety than
ever before, with all manner of pat
terns tn stripes, checks and dots, and
by the champagne shades I mean those
of . tan. champagne or pongee color
- background; bright splashes of color
will enliven these, either In border
trimmings Or In large dots, or the
new square block effects. Of course
there will be, aside from the simple
styles, the very dressy and elaborate
.parasols, which com this year la the
new novelty French prints, so delight
ful to the eye, even so disastrous
to the pocketbook."
One of the novelties that will be of
strong appeal throughout the coming
season Is the new "Yokohama" para
sol or shade, a type of which Is shown
In the central picture. No. o. This
shade Is almost flat in effect, with
many fine ribs of bamboo, and comes
In a wide variety ef gay combinations,
all the way from the pretty pongee
with a border of white openwork em
broidery and border stripe of dainty
robin's egg blue to the gay and festive
effects tn red.
The new square block novelty pat
tern, which will probably rival theh
polkadot materials this season, is
shown In No. 9. which Is of champagne
colored silk, with squares and border
of rich brown. An idea of the black
and white tendency Is given by pic
tures 2 and i. The pin-stripe effect
In black and white, shown In No. 4, Is
heralded as one of the smartest pat
terns. No. 6 shows a pretty little
shadeof npngee, with embroidered red
dots and a three-inch border of red
silk. This type of shade is varied with
dainty 'linings of silk in delicate tones.
The white linen parasol, which, not
to be so much in vogue as in former
seasons, will still be popular, and is
being shewn In daintier and more elab
orate patterns than ever. No. 3 shows
a shade of white linen of all-embroidery,
with dainty openwork border.
Very little idea of the extreme dain
tiness and attractiveness of the para
sol shown in Ne. 1 can be had from
the picture. The beautifully blended
tones and the dainty rufflea of narrow
lace about the border are things that
escape the camera and defy reproduc
tion. The broad Dresden stripe whioh
forms more than half the pattern of
this shade Is found In nearly all the
styles of elaborate parasol, and the
exquisite Dresden blendings are prin
cipally employed In the delicate French
print patterns, which are not really
prints at all. but a cunning weave of
Ingeniously tinted silken thread. The
effect Is much like that of skillfully
hand-painted silk. These are to he had
for use with milady's elaborate gowns
in any desired tone, and at as high a
figure as one may care to stipulate.
HITS RACE TRACK ONLY
Poker Clubs la Washington Not
. Bart by New Law.
OREGON IAN NEWS BCRKATJ. Wash
ington April 26 While Congress has
been unwilling to make Washing
ton a "dry"town. It has decreed that
there shall be no more gambling In the
District of Columbia. The prohibition
question has been put over for later con
sideration, in the expectation that the
wave will have subsided before another
Congress convenes. The unfortunate
thing about prohrbitlon and gambling in
the District of Columbia Is that the resi
dents of the District have no voice what
ever in legislation. Congress has full
power to say whether there shall be
prohibition or whether liquor shall con
tinue to be sold: it has the same abso
lute power to regulate gambling.
While It la no doubt true that the Dis
trict would have voted to dose down
gambling, just as Congress has done, it
is not likely that the citlsena of Wash
ington and the remainder of the District
would vote for prohibition that la a ma
jority of them.
'The enactment of an anti-gambling law
will put a stop to horseracing in the Dis
trict: the Bennings tract has probably
seen its last meet, but aside from that.
the District will not feel the effects of
the anti-gambling law. There are no
recognized gambling houses In Washing
ton or In the suburbs; there is no gaming
of any sort, other than baseball, football
and the like. There are, of course, quiet
poker games, and there always will be,
especially during sessions of Congress,
for even an. act of Congress cannot sup
press that National game, if it Is played
on the quiet.
In one of the swell apartment-houses
of Washington a party of Senators and!
Representatives maintain a regular potter
club, and not a few of the members of
that club voted for the antl-gambllng
bill. But no one supposes that this club
will suspend, now that Congress has
voted against gambling. "No more will
othe? private assemblages cease. But
gambling In the open will not be at
tempted. As a matter of fact all sorts
of gambling, except betting at the race
track, has been prohibited by police reg
ulation; now it is prohibited by law, and
racing goes with poker, etc.
So, the anti-gambling law. Instead of
putting the lid down on Washington,
.merely makes the lid more secure, for
Washington is not and has not been a
wide-open town. Eliminate the race
track and an utter stranger never could
find his way to a poker game, unless he
was vouched for.

"EVIL EYE" AIDS ROBBER
Aged Woman Falls Victim to Strange
Delusion In Paris. .
PARIS. April 25. (Special.) An eld.
erly lady was haunted by the Idea that
some day an evil eye would cause her
terrible mischief, and her anticipation
has just been fulfilled. She had taken
a sum of $400 out of her bank and
$2000 worth of securities, when, as she
was leaving the establishment, she saw
a young man of rather unprepossessing
appearance staring at her and finally
he followed her. She quickly took a
rar, but. to her surprise, found htm
sitting opposite her and still looking
at her with an "evil eye." When she
left the tram she again saw that he
was pursuing her, and, what was
worse, seemed to keep his terrible eye
on her all the time. So frightened was
she that she actually ran to her house,
but on reaching the entrance she waa
completely overcome and fell down in
a swoon. -
When she recovered she found that
all her money was gone, together with
the securities. It was only then that
Ehe thought of calling a policeman, but
the young man with the "evil eye" had
long ago gone away with his booty.
Ue had enough consideration for bar.
The digryty and elegance of these garments combined
with their surprisingly low cost will make them first
choice of every woman of discerning taste who ap
preciates right economy in shopping.

Makes Abject Apology.
BERLIN. April 25. (Special.) Privy
Councillor Paasche, Vice-President ef the
Imperial Legislature, formally apologized
In the Reichstag the other day for an
attack he made on the War Minister
during the first reading of the military
estimates. Referring to the - "Zukunft"
revelations, he had declared that the
military authorities were endeavoring to
shield officers of noble birth from the
consequence of their perverse crimes. As
Herr Paasche happens to be a Majnr
of the Landwehr the Minister of War
exercised his military authority to exact
a humiliating retraction from him.
