FATAT FALL OF A BRIDGE
Collapses Under a Party of Pupils
with a Professor Watching a Waterfall.
Menominee, Mich., Get. 6. While a
party of twenty-live students of tho
Oconto. Wis., high school was standing on a foot bridge at Oconto, Falls,
Wis., watching the falls the structure
collapsed, hurling the whole party for
ty feet into the stream. William Ballou, aged 14 years, was killed, and Viga Sentll. Hazel Denizen and Frank
Donlevv seriously injured. Professor
Newcomb, the instructor, wa.s badly hurt, and several others were slightly
injured.
The bridge is 200 feet long, but the
water in the stream is only three feet deep, he entire town turned out and
a special train from Oconto brought
doctors and nurses. Most of the in
jured were taken home. Twenty-five other students had left the bridge just
before It fell.
THE INTERNAL FEMIMXE. My Dear Martha: Town Is anything but a Sahara In matters modish. The coming brides are secretive regarding their trousseaux but the wedding robes proper are ex
tremely similar. They are nearly ill princess in effect and by the unanimous adoption of the court train, the bride of today has an eye to some future use of the gown other than packing it
away in sweet lavendar as our grand
mothers were wont to do! The other
important innovation is the ban placed upon shimmering satins and heavy
brocades. Chiffons, plain and embroidered, are decreed as the only
proper material. One robe which has
Just arrived from Paris is of chiffon
wondrously embroidered in an ex
quisite design in silver. The skirt is
composed of three ruffles graduating to
the waist line and each one edged with
rare lace. The waist Moused a trifle
and has cascades of the lace falling over each shoulder which in front are
lost in the wide girdle and in back are
caught like a large rosette and two
ends of the lace fall half way down
the skirt. This is a one-piece dress but
has a wide swathed girdle of chiffon.
One or two of the wedding gowns have
very small puffs of sleeves with long
tight cuffs to the hand made of alter
nating bands of embroidery and lace.
Uy far the handsomest wedding gown I
have seen was a princess chiffon over soft satin messaline. The chiffon was
embroidered in silver from neck to hem in long sprays of maiden hair fern. The deep yoke with Dutch neck.
was of Duchess lace. Elbow sleeves-
as tight as could be were of the lace
with one spray of the silver embroidery
on each arm. The slippers were maae
of a silver cloth and the veil is a
magnificent affair of Duchess lace.
A young widow recently inarneu
abroad wore a striking costume of mauve chiffon embroidered heavily in
arge roses with those very effective
frosted mauve sequens. She wore a large mauve moire hat with low crown
and wide brim. It was trimmed with
a large bunch of shaded silk and velvet
orchid3 and these flowers were also
used as an under-brim trimming. One
of the tall willowy brides is to wear an
Empire but made on the latest im
proved plans of that much abused
model. The lining : tight princess tlaring at the her. The Empire is of
delicate chiffon which hardly looks
strong enough to hold the masses of
marvellous embroidery in silver threads
and sequens reaching as high as the
knees. Tiny tucks at the waist lin
partly hold it into the figure and it is belted high under the arm with bands
of point lace and from a knot of this
lace in the middle of the back, fall ends
to the hem of the train. The uppei
portion has more of the dazzling em
broidery with insets of the point lace.
Aside from wedding preparations the
coming automobile race is tne aa aD-
sorbing topic and many are hunting at
Lenox. So before long we may expect
the social throng to settle down per
manently instead of making but brief
visits to order for the winter, creations
which are expected to ravish ou; senses. Yours, JANE.

THE SENSE OF SMELL.
Gas, According to a. Scientist, Is Its
Fundamental Baals.
Is the sense of smell excited by gases
or particles? According to Dr. John
Altken, an English specialist, gas is the fundamental basis of the sense of smell. In experiments he first investigated musk, of which it is possible to detect by smell a microscopic quantity inconceivably minute, a fact well
known to scientists. Dr. Altken car
ried out his researches upon the cloudy
condensation basis, according to which, if odors are attributable to particles,
the Litter form nuclei of cloudy con
densation in supersaturated air and
thus make their presence visible.
In the case of musk no such nuclei were detected, proving that musk does not give off solid particles, but evapo
rates as a gas or vapor, and that it is gaseous particles from the musk that
act on the sense of smell. Of twenty-
three other odorous substances not one
gave its perfume in solid particles,
nothing but gases or vapors escaping
from them.
Dr. Altken points out that the nos
trils appear to substantiate this theory.
The perfume of snuff, for instance, is a
soft, velvety sensation, while the effect
of the solid is sharp and biting, more
allied to pain than pleasure.

their cigars in the right side of the

Is this: It is natural with all men to

It in his left hand if he is right handed: if he is left handed he holds it in his right hand. In either case the hand be has the most confidence in is free for emergency use.

Tea Table SnierstittBS.
An old superstition is that if the lid is forgotten when the tea is put in the kettle to steep there will be visitors. When a girl receives two spoons with her cup of tea she will be married within the year. Those who help themselves to the milk or cream before putting in the sugar will be crossed in love. A tea leaf Coating on the top of a cup of tea means that the drinker has an admirer. If the tea is stirred quickly and the spoon held upright in the middle of the cup, the lover will call that day If the leaf is attached to the spoon. If, on the contrary, the leaf clings to the side of the cup, he will not come until another dav.
A Pretty Dessert. A dessert that is good to eat as well as to look at is made of a bunch of grapes in wine jelly. Prepare the Jelly, using a little more gelatin than the recipe calls for. The bunch of grapes should be small and perfect. Place it In the mold so that when turned out the stem will be right side up. Next fill the mold about half full of jelly and set it in a pan of ice. As soon as it begins to st put In some loose grapes and. some candied cherries. Pour the remainder of the jelly into the mold and let it stand until it is firm enough to hold the grapes; then set on tha ice to harden.
