MILLERS ARE "AGIN"
RECIPROCITY PLAN
Niagara Falls, X. Y., June 14.
Meeting cn the border line between
the United States and Canada, the
millers of the country today hurled
defiance and hurd words at the states,
men of both countries who are seek
ing to bring about reciprocity. The
meeting is under the auspices of the
National Millers' Federation and hub
attracted leading mllers from every
part of the country.
"The federation stands for recip
rocal relations between the United
States and Canada," said Secretary
Gootzmann of Chicago, "providing
they are made equitable. The mil
lers oppose free flour because the
cost of manufacture is less in the
Dominion than on this side of the
border. Lower wages are paid by
Canadian millers and much of their
manufacturing is done by water
power."
THE
ALEXA
DDI DEFT. STORE
XEW YORK FASHIONS.
Recently returned from the land of
"has beens" are striped Bilks In a
great variety of designs. . Some have
pluln stripes of strong color; others
show a delicately flowered stripe In
contract to a pale tinted one, and oth
ers have Irregular stripes In the old
dashloned "chine" effects separated
by narrow black lines. These when
worn with little coats of black silk
or satin are charming. Pale yellow
silk striped Irregularly with fine
clustered black lines is one of the fa
vored patterns for afternoon frocks,
und the skirts of such gowns are f ul-
kr than tailored skirts.
Some of the newest i-kirts measure
us much as three yurds about the hem
which is a vast improvement upon
the models that have obtained for the
past few months.
Lace Is used much less in the or
namentutlon of gowns than plain
white linen and English embroidery,
but a hint of this was given in the
last of these letters. When lace is
used, it Is generally employed as an
underdress, seen d'nily through a
transparency. Gowns made en entire
ly of white English embroidery, done
In an excessively open design and
worn over a slip of black satin, have
become extraordinarily chic. Belted
with black velvet ribbon or with a
long fringed sash of black silk, they
are quite devoid of color, except In
the accessories of parasol, stockings,
etc.
A French dressmaker famous for
the beauty of her lingerie frocks used
quantities of the finest possible tucks
set in lengthwise rows. In the nar
rowest bands, often measuring less
than half an Inch across and framed
In narrow rows of fancy open stitch
ing, they form wide borders on the
skirts and perhaps compose the en
tire corsage. Wider bands, perhaps
measuring several inches framed in
luce entredeaux. alternate with bands
of plain colored batiste on white ba
tiste gowns.
One sees a good many of the belted
coats and through the accepted cor
seting and silhouette prevents even
a. belted garment from giving trim,
small waisted linet, it Is rather re
freshing to see occasionally a coat
that' does not altogether obliterate
the curves of the body as do so many
of the short loose coats.
A fancy for making whole frocks
or blouses of Engluiso or eyelet em
broidery trimmed in plain material
has brought out many distressing de
velopments of this idea in cheap
coarse materials, but in fine lingerie
stuffs combined with plain linen or
even plain linen the results are often
admirable. One of the pretiest little
tub frocks that has been seen this
season lias its body of bug linen
embroidered all over In openwork de
sign. A deep band of plain bug lin
en forms the lower half of the skirt
and narrow bands run up from It to
the shoulders on each side of the
front and back. The short sleeves
are chiefly of plain sheer linen with
emboldery running out over them a
little from the shoulders, and cuffs of
the embroidery. A narrow girdle and
primp bow of black velvet defines the
high waist line. Frocks somewhat
similar to this, or at leant of the same
general character are shown In all the
light colors and in white, and there
are effective models too in white with
the embroidery done In color and
with the plain material either of the
while or the color.
White serges with relieving notes
of black are to be seen everywhere,
and white serges with broad sailor
collars of green, cerise, purple and
lavender are among the unique mod
els offered for country club, seashore
and casino wear. They ae strikingly
smart and If one chooses to subdue
the brilliant color of the collar and
cuffs by ovcrcuffs and revers of
sheerest white or cream colored hem
stitched batiste, the effect Is still more
meauttful. White braid is used In
great quantities upon serge frocks of
all kinds, but it Is of very plain variety.

Bay City, Mich. Moses Grebe of
Penrce, Neb., Is in this city' to search
for a hidden fortune thnt, he deelnrs,
was left by his nephew, John C. Mil
ler, a resident of this city, who died
several months ago.
Miller lived alone and practiced the
usual habits of a hermit. It was Ren.
erally believed that he had consider
able wealth In mortgages, stocks and
other securities, estimates ranging all
the way from $10,000 to $100,000.
But after his death nothing was found
that indicated a fortune the estate
totaling under $300. Of this Grebe
received $1.19, with 5 cents for the
money order deducted.
Shortly after Miller's death a local
attorney was employed by relatives

Southampton, England, Juno 14.
Enthusiastic crowds assembled about
the new ueep dock here and cheered
wildly as the monster White Star
liner Olympic, the largest and finest
vessel In the world, steamed awny on
her maiden voyage to New York.
The giant ship will attempt to make a
record-breaking trip across the At
lantic. The Olympic has 4a, 000 tons reg-I.-ter
and Is 827 feet long and 92 1-2
foot beam, being considerably larger
In all respects than. the Lusltanla and
Mauretanla, of the C'unard line, which
have heretofore held the record am
ong the vessels of the world for size
and speed. The Olympic has a sister
vessel In the Titanic, which was
launched at Belfast two weeks ago,
and which will be ready to put In
the Southnmpton-Xew York service
late this year.
The Olympic Is not only the largest
but Is also the most magnificently
furnished annd equipped vessel af
loat. Swimming pools, a tennis court,
a bowling alley and Turkish and el
ectric bath establishments are am
ong the Innovations for the comfort
and entertainment of the passengers.
The Olympic and Titanic, having
eclipsed the Mauretanla and Luslta
nla, will soon be themselves sur
passed. The Hamburg-American
mammoth turbine Imperator, now
building for the Hamburg-New York
service, will be 890 feet long, or seven
and one-half feet longer than the
Olympic and Titanic, and slightly
larger In other respects. Last month
the German company placed orders
for a sister ship for the Imperator. If
remains to be seen whether the new
vessel will be able to lower the trans
Atlantic record of the Mauretanla,
which traversed the distance between
Queenstown and New York in the re
markable time of four days, ten
hours and forty-one minutes. The
Mauretanla has just made her bun
dredth Atlantic crossing.
