ment, but Chief Lewis will resume his

official position today pending the hearing of an application for a new trial. ' Captain Marner has been generally regarded as a good and efficient officer.

New York, Slay 17. With the approach of warm weather lingerie blouses and smartly tailored shirtwaists of tub materials are commanding more and more attention. This, however, does not mean that the interest in costume blouses is on the decline.

Albert Lewis. (Special to Thb Times.) East Chicago, Ind., May 17. Chief of Police Albert Lewis, outside of expressing surprise at the outcome. of his trial before Judge Reiter yesterday, had little to say. He said he had entered an application for a rehearing of his case, and pending the outcome of the arguments in that connection, he did not care to talk. . ' Yesterday Captain John Marner held down the position of acting chief, but today Chief Lewis resumed his leadership of the department pending the outcome ,of the arguments for a new trial. The news of Chief Lewis' displace

ment was received with varying sentiments throughout East Chicago and Indiana Harbor. There are some who express satisfaction over the outcome of the ouster proceedings, while- others regard it with regret. There is a disposition among the chief's friends to the belief that be has not been given a fair deal, and to sympathize with him accordingly. The "little big chief" has a great many friends in the Twin Cities, right or wrong, and these are anxious for him to be given 4- new trial. "I cannot understand it," said Mr. Lewis this morning. "Somehow or other a few days ago, I could not get the least bit excited over the case. I had no idea it would go against me. Yes. I have made application for a new trial. I am not prepared to say right now what course I will pursue if the hearing is denied me." Before leaving for

wear it for innumerable purposes, but when she orders her tailored or semitailored costume she will order a blouse to match and will confess that, however lovely the lingerie blouse worn with such a suit, she does not feel herself quite dressed tn It, It is true, there are some half and half affairs this spring upon which she may compromise if she will. The ide i of combining silk, chiffon or silk muslin matching a suit Vn color with fine

white lingerie material has appealed to some designers and has bfien worked out verv happily in some cases.

The veiling of openwork or other em

broidery on linen or batiste, with colored chiffon," is of course familiar, but

the new idea it shown in a charming

model fashioned of dark blue mounsellne de solo below the bust line, while

the upper part of the blouse was of fine white linen embroidered In openwork design and trimmed, with frills of the openwork embroidery and with little bands of the dark blue mousseline fine

ly tucked crosswise.

Another blouse of dark etamine over white had an oddly shaped yoke and clAiAa nf Am hrnl A co hatlftt A ami

mere txiv vauuus muncis in nun. wi.n shallow yokes of lingerie stuff continued down the outside of the sleeve In a band and sometimes, as in som: charming models seen, running down the front of the blouse as well. Deep cape collors. sailor collars, Dutch collars of embroidered batiste or linen appear upon" many of the colored blouses in silk or nheer materials and some exceedingly good looking models are of silk, chiffon, silk mousseline or etamine combined with white or cream batiste embroidered in color matching the silli. There has been a ullght reaction in favor. of soft, sheer but not transparent silken blouse stuffs this spring, and one finds more pretty things than usual in the fine crepes, radiums, etc., but when all is said and done chiffon, etamine and mousseline de soie are tha materials most often . chosen for the

smart costume blouse. Jumper arrangements in these materials which may be worn over lace, lingerie or net gulmpoa are offered in very pretty styles and are labor saving devices, though aside perhaps from some original touch in embroidery the . Jumper seldom has much individuality and one gets heartily tired of the beaded embroidery effocts. For practical wear Is recommended an overblouse of chifTon matching the suit and rising quite tc the base of the throat; so that only a close high collar or a litle Dutch collar of lace or lingerie is in evidence, and the question of guimpe cleaning becomes less puzzling. Under sleeves or cuffs to

match the collo are usually adde,' but J If these can 'be "made adjustable, so

much the better, s. The overblouses may be trimmed handsomely with hand, urnbroidery or: merely have an attractive line of trimming finishing neck and sleeves. ' Blouses quite as simple and a little newer but too youthful in air to be suitable for all wearers have no guimpe and are finished at the neck by sailor collars of white or contrasting color chiffon, hemstitched on the edges and usually falling over an under collor of the blouse material. A good, simple

overblouse of chiffon or mousseline de soie is made on the usual lines, with kimono .sleeves, and . has for its only trimming wide bands of fine transverse tucking running from shoulder to girdle, crossing front and back and continued down the shoulder lines and the outside of the sleeves. Never have striped materials been used to a greater extent than at thi3 season. They- are employed in all kinds ef materials ad in most cases with very happyjresults. Probably the black-and-white effects are the most noticeable in fabrics for suits or silk dresses. In tweeds the stripes are not decided, and this new weave is much more satisfactory for tailored --suits. Serges with pin stripes are emphasized in the openings of manyof the Paris couturiers. The white serge suit, with a fine stripe in, either black or bJue, is frequently trimmed with satin to match the color. It is one of .the fabrics for dressy suits or for cool summer days, Scd . recommends itself to bueta front

this fact, that it can be continued into the next season. With black-and-white striped material there is now used by the leading modietes a touch of cerise. The vogue for this i very decided, and on hats, gowns or baws of black and white thU brilliant cherry color is generally seen. Silks in black and white are shown in every shop. For linings, for entire dresses, for underslips in frocks, the black and white patterns are displayed. They "lose nothing of their pattern when veiled, but can be softened down by the open meshes of tunics and drapery. In skirts, the stripes will be used

in different ways. A band of the material emphaEi2ing the horizontal line will be adjusted at the deep hem. The trips on a -circular skirt will be cut to meet in a point at the center seam. Panels using the vertical lines can be adjusted at the back. When the idea is used wilh-discretion the wearer cannot help butVrofit. The lines of the figure should determine the disposition of the stripes V ' "" 7 ; ...

On hats there is a decided use of

Some Plant in the "Moon" and Others Plant in the "Hert."

"With the approach of the planting time every owner or renter of ground Is anxious to plant or sow the seed of whatever crop he hopes to reap Just at the most auspicious time to insure an abundant yield. There is a sign, a natural sign, for the time to plant almost everything that grows. Most of them are based upon the experience and the observation of the older class of farmers and most of them have at least a strong dash of truth. There is, however, another class of signs, in which much more faith is put than many people'imagine. These are the ancient signs of the sodiac, and the condition of the moon. Over the country today' there are farmers and gardners who would almost as soon think of planting their

truck in the midst of winter as of

planting it when the "sign was wrong." The impression that the moon does have a very direct and consequential effect on vegetation is so widely dif-
