HAT TRIMMINGS ARE RICH

Eastern Ideas Predominate In the New Millinery Decorations of ths Paris Models. Curious and beautiful are the new hat trimmings. At the millinery openings, exclamations of surprise, of joy, of admiration are heard on every side; women are delighted with the quaint touch that is seen on many of the Paris models. Egyptian designs worked out in the' rich East Indian colors are a htvprite, riJode and will be much worn. BrovVas in every shade, with a decided leaning toward the golden tones, describe the keynote on a goodly number of the latest importations. Purples, in every tone from the rich and royal to the palest shade of lavander, find their way into the fall styles. Scarlet and the deep rich red tones are to be popular, while black and white, the favorite combination of many women, will be as much in evidence as ever.

Feathers play an Important part in the new hat trimmings. Curiously enough, there is a decided absence of the willow plume in the newer models. Can it be that these graceful and beautiful feathers are passe, that fashion makers will discard them altogether? To be sure, the broad sweeping picture models are often adorned with long willow plumes, but on the smaller hats—and these are still in fashion this winter —the hackle feathers have taken their place. Garlands of brightcolored flowers will adorn velvet and felt hats. These are made of ribbon* silk, velvet, gold and silver cloth, and crocheted with fine zephyr in all the hard bright tones that are found in the old-fashioned crewel work our grandmothers were so fond of. Tiny blossoms they are, with wired edges and stems of wire covered w’ith wrappings of zephyr. Fur is another note in the trimming of winter hats. Rows of fur. ends of fur tails and little furry heads of animals all go to beautify milady’s headgear. Theater bonnets are trimmed with metal flowers and high-standing algrets of fine metal wire, gold and silver. Osprey feathers and all sorts of upstanding wings and fancy feathers will be seen on the correct models during the coming season.—Philadelphia Ledger.

NEW STYLES OF FOOTWEAR

According to Rumor There Are to Be Many Changes in the Vogue ’ Next Spring. As an indication of the styles of footwear that will be In vogue next spring In Great Britain it may be remarked that ladies’ low shoes will be manufactured without a fastening; and whereas at the present time the whole sole is black, the upper parts will be colored and the lower parts remain black as before, with the exception of the heels, which will be made of wood covered with tinsel, celluloid or canvas and colored attractively, which coloring need not coincide or blend with the lipper part of the shoe, but may appear as a bright colored contrast. \ A demand has arisen, and it is stated to be increasing, for shoes to match the dress. This is naturally favored by shoe manufacturers, as it involves additional purchases. Soft suede and glace kids, dyed heliotrope, cerise, blue and other shades, are expected to form exceedingly fashionable wear in the Coining spring and summer months. '

IMPRISONED MEN SAFELY RESCUED

62 Miners Reached after Hours of Hard Digging. 'CkUGHT BY CAVE-IN IN SHAFT Entombed Men Come Out Into Sunshine to Greet Their Wives and Families—None of Them _ Injured. a Sutter Creek, Cal., Feb. 9.—After a night of hard work by miners from nearby mines the sixty-two miners entombed in thfe Bunker Hill mine by a cave-in in the mouth of the shaft were rescued at noon. None of the men was injured. They were greeted by their wives and daughers as they came out of the shaft with their candles still burning. The men had been caught by a cavein at the mouth of the incline shaft and a force of 140 men worked like beavers all and part of the day to remove the debris. One of the men called through the air pipe that they had climbed to the tunnel and the operations were changed to effect a rescue from this point. The shaft was jammed about 100 feet from the mouth. A loaded skip had broken loose and shot down the incline, tearing away the collar tim-, bers. No food was sent down to the imprisoned men for fear of choking the air pipe.

OROZCO REFUSES OFFICE

Will Not Become Governor of. State of Chihuahua. El Paso, Tex., Feb. 9. —Fasqual Orozco refused the governorship of Chihuahua after the state legislature had selected him, but he protests his loyalty to Madero and is said to have declined the governorship partially because the state legislature declined to endorse Madero, also because he believed the constitutional governor, Abram Gonzales, should first be given a chance to restore order or at least have some say in the matter. Gonzales, who has wired that he was coming to Juarez by way of Eagle Pass and would then go to Chihuahua from Juarez, decided to go on a hand car to Chihuahua to consult with Orozco and the state legislature.
