The costume Illustrated would lie a pleasing model for such a dreBS. and later on It could he used for an afternoon stilt. It may he mado with or with out the panel In front, and such materials as lightweight broadcloth und serge, cashmere, Henrietta, and mohair, as well as the heavyweight silks, would ha attractive and serv iceable. Any one who lias done sewing for lei-self will readily see that the design Is so simple that It can ho copied suc cessfully even by the most Inexperi enced, and where so much of the dainti ness of a costume depends on the ma terial selected there Is no need of choos ing more than a simple design to ac complish the de sired effect This Is a thor oughly practical and simple costume and would he espe cially attractive de veloped In n dark wistaria broadcloth. Huttons covered with satin to match in color would give u dainty finish to tue panel, and the collar and cuffs can be of the satin fine ly tucked. The belt should also be of the satin draped In soft folds and either fastened under a dainty how or ro sette or arranged under tho panel la front. For a more dressy costume this would be charming carried out In smoke gray crepe de chlno. The princess panel can be decorated with a pretty floral de sign lu heavy silk floss. The neck and sleeves can be lln- lulled with embroid ered collar and cuffs or lace dyed to match the color of tho material.

WITHYCOMBE WILL TRY AGAIN FOR GOVERNORSHIP James Witliycombe, of Corvallls. Republican nominee fur governor lu ln;, is going to try It again. Al ready, two years before the next elec tion, he Is holding his ear to the ground and Is considering the call or the people. Mr. Witliycombe was a Portland visitor yesterday, and, so the story goes, opened the Pandora's box or his political ambitions while here In conversation with K. E. Williams. National Republican committeeman ror Oregon. At that time, so It Is reported, Mr. Withycomhe said he was receiving urgent and insistent requests rrom friends throughout the state In large numbers urging him to be a candidate and that he was considering the proposition.. Previous to this, also, Mr. Wittiy- combe had intimated that he would get Into the race again when the time came, several times, nowever, since his defeat In June, 190B, lie has been emphatic in his contention that he was out or politics ror good, tteceni utterances, though, show that Mr. Wlthycomljo still desires to be gov ernor, and that he will attempt to realize his ambition at the first op portunity. I he probable candidacy or Mr. Wlthycombe adds one more to the al ready long list of prominent men who have their eyes on the place. Up in Eastern Oregon Judge Stephen A. owell, of Pendleton, is reputed to be a possible candidate. Superinten dent of Public Instruction Ackerman is also a candidate. J. W. Bailey, state dairy and food commissioner, has hlB eye on the job, so his friends say, though Mr. llalley heniself will not admit it. District Attorney Cam eron is also training his forces on the stntehouse at Salem. Judge L. H. Webster is talked of as a possibil ity. Then In addition there are per haps a dozen other men who either are being urged to train ror the race or who are urging that they should do so. It Is a certainty that there will be plenty of men to fill the place when the time comes for the people to decide who will bo governor. Journal. THIRTY-SEVENTH CHICAGO FIRE ANNIVERSARY Chicago, 111., Oct. !). Today was the thirty-seventh anniversary of the great Chicago fire, one of the most disastrous conflagrations In the his tory of modern times. The event is not generally celebrated, but several societies, among them the Old Set tlors and Pioneers, always hold an niversary meetings to exchange rem iniscences of the exciting events that followed the act of Mrs. O'Leary's famous cow in kicking over the burn ing kerosene lamp in its stable on DeKoven street. Tho great Chicago fire burned about twenty-four hours and during that time destroyed within a district about four miles long and one mile wide, 1 8,000 buildings, Including the most pretentious structures In the business section, blotted out about 100 Uvea and altogether destroyed property to the value of $200,000-000.

Or.. Oct. 8. The coun cil of LaGrande last night floated a block of bonds totaling 1 60,000, bearing 5 per cent Interest, to John Nuveen & Co., of Chicago, at par. The proceeds will he used to con struct a gravity water system that will bring water for domestic, and municipal purposes from Beaver creek, 18 miles away. It Is an act that has been tried De fore, but failed. Now, after two years of constant effort, the coun cil has accepted a bid which means that the city will In less than a year have a water supply equal from the standpoint of purity and sanitation to any In the state. longer lu vogue and artificial pad ding for bust and hips no longer In demand. Instead the long slralghl lines nnd curvuless slhoueettes of tho Dlreclolre and of tho Empire are sovereign. The extreme models of the present stylo are. undoubtedly, becoming to the lull, slim and curve less women, with long necks and wninll hips, but for women or more general development they are almost Impossible, or nil her quite so. The renson Is quite obvious; It Is easier 1o supply lacking development by Ju dicious padding than to eliminate the natural tissue Hint refuses to til Into the straight lines or I he prevail ing style. It Is this fact which prom ises to cut sliort I lie life of the new fashion. The new style skirts are so revo lutionary In cut and so difficult lo iidjust to Hie rigure, even lo one that Is naturally slim and graceful, that the American dressmakers have not vyet mastered Its Intricacies. It will In come time before they will be able to become used to I lie peculiarities of the cut and lo adapt themselves, at the same time to the modifications made necessary by the Individual tasle and physical development of their patrons. The short walking skirt presents greater dltflciiltlc than the long, trailing skirt, owing to the provall lt.it circular cut and It Is safe to say that many of Hie new short skirts will be hopelessly unbecoming to the average rlcure. I hev are glovetu tlii over t'.ie hip-' "-l plain lu the back, much like tV- :vlo of a few years ago. r'oitun tely there are Home variations which atrord some reller, clever tricks or goring, plaits Introduced skillfully on the sides be low the hips, etc.. which make It possible to d)iit these skirts In a fairly becoming way. A perfectly flat hark Hue In fashionable to adjust these skirts hi fairly becoming way A perfectly flat back line Is fashion able In conjunction with slender and narr.-w bios. Hut for a woman with ample ami well accentuated hip, it would he absurd to attempt the Mraluht back lln As II l. tk -rtf4vlf narrow loaf illrt tlrh vn 94rt lo or the ImpoAci f4rh uwtUW Is too extreme to be n-p;l ttot rentnitlon by an if whelming tnajoiny ot the women few of l tn-m will be n-ttn. lint ore ample mudels are turned out a Judicious use of scarfs and similar mentis of accentuating; tho long ver tical lines of the Dlrectolre style. These scurfs, of which a large vnr lety may bo seen In the fashionable shops, nro In satin finished silk or In liberty, with ends bordered with netted fringe, tassels, heavy embroid ery or merely cut Into a sharp point and knotted about two Inches above the hem. Tho acarf or medium length may be draped across the shoulders and drape the top of the raised skirt line, the ends almost Joining under the left arm and rai ling over Hie hip at front nnd back. Among : lie new gowns of recent Importation are some black lace gowns, cousplctoua not only for the glorious coloring of the materials tinder them, but for the artistic com bination of modes, such as Japanese and Grecian, in company with the newer version of the lllreclolre. This latter Is Introduced In the lung, cling ing tunic skirt, while the oriental tendency confines ltseir to the bod ice. A gorgeous costiinie of thai kind seen recently at a fashionable function, was of filet net (rluttned with matching bands mounted over cerise chiffon taffeta. lllack silk drop ornaments dangled from every available point nnd huge ornaments or the same construction trimmed the front or Hie bodice. The sleeves were extremely long and without ful ness at the top, tin net being slilrred fncts. Not only Is silk brocade em ployed In the lining of these wraps, but It Is used In- largo patterns for their outside, the tinsel threads em ployed In their weaving adding to Its brilliancy and giving additional rea son ror the Increasing popularity of fringes which appear on many of the latest nnd handsomest wraps Im ported from abroad. After several years of comparative retirement, sealskin is to bo fashion able a md n this winter. Hut the In sane craze for sealskin coats In for mer years, which led almost to the extinction of the fur-bearing Heals, has made sealskin so costly that at present It is tar beyond the means of the ordinary woman. Only the very richest women will he able to afford a genuine sealskin coat this winter, as Ihey will be from five to sven elghths length, requiting a great deal of material. As to fabrics the silk-covered hat undoubtedly leads this season, and the old fashioned ribbed or ottoman silk Is greatly In evidence, which alone ndds to the weight of the hat. Heavers are In vogue, the old-fashioned satin covered frames are in again mid yet ninny felt hats are also shorn, lu coinhlunttiui with heavy silk trimmings. Velvet huts seem to have gone completely out of style. Extreme styles, suggesting the Merry Widow, seetn almost to touch the shoulder, tine of the most notable rcuturcs In Hie trimming of hats this season are the large wings and feathered bandeaux, or I'ocahontas effect that encircle the crowns and In some Instances droop over tin back of the brim.
