OVERALL ALL THROUGH, WRITES BILL LAflGE; BROWN OUTLAW

Orval Overall is done as a major league pitcher, according to a letter received yesterday by Han Johnson from 'Bill-' Lange, dated from the coast. Reports that Orvie would never be

seen in a Cubs' uniform again have!

been numerous ever sine the close of the season, but there are fans who have thought that the big fellow might not have intended to convey that he was out of major league ball when he declared he was through with the West Siders. Larige, however, sings Overall's swan song, , for he declares in his screed to

the American league president that that injury which the big twirlev receivtd ,

in a recent game in his pitching arm put that already weak member completely out of business as far as fast company was concerned. Unless "Three Fingered0 Brown has obtained permission to play ball on the coast he may find himself in a peck of trouble when he reports to the Cubs next spring. Players subject themselves to a fine under the rules of or

higher. The reason is easily found in the gradual extermination of fur-bearing animals throughout the world. i Seal has not the prestige it enjoyed last winter, yet there are many handsome long coats of French seal, the Ftnuine sea lbeing- no wtoo costly to be worn except by the extra vagent few. Caracul Is still a favorite among the less expensive coat furs and moleskin Is in ' high favor, an dbelng as pliable as velvet or plush, affords the furriers opportunity for the exhibition of skilful workmanship. . Combination of furs Is a salient feature of the season's modes In both the small furs and the coats and it Is

rather exceptional to find a handsome coat all in one kind of fur. certain ermine evening coats and the rare sable coats, to who'se beauty noo ther fur could add, being the most noteworthy exceptions. lloletkin is combined with seal, wlt'a ermine, with the dyed fox of soft taupe tone, wtyh skunk, with white fox. Black caracul Is relieved by any and all of the dark long haired furs, by opossum, chinchilla and ermine. Seal finds a lovely contrast In ermine, but is trimmed with the long haired furs too. Even the ermine coat sometimes has a huge cofar of black fox or white fox, though it is most effective when used alone.

Chinchilla is becoming: rarer every I year and before long will probably be j beyond the means of any but the very

I rich. Fine sables, silver fox, seal,

ermine, breitschwanz and other furs are all Increasing In price as they become rarer. Each year the makers of fashion take up some one of the less expensive furs and make it a fad in order that the average woman may find in the modishness of a fur she can buy some compensation for the. fact that

capes and large pockets are in vogue,

pockets, and the wearer can rejoice In a delightful warmth as well. Some models- show a fastening at the right side, most of them, however, button at the left. Contrasting collars and cuffs of white on colors or bright colors on neutral shades are the mode. Some wraps or coats are cut on straight lines and others have odd little seams and deviations from the straight models. Little panels are Inset, the line of the waist Is clearly suggested on some, and belts are very much In

evidence. Large revers are the feat- I

urts, and the pointed or round shaped collars at the back promise to decorate successfully the favorite garment. Frills and flounces play an Important part In the styles of today. Even

on the most subdued models flounces appear on house gowns of all kinds. For afternoon and evening wear they are. particularly popular. Bodices that suggest the Seconde Empire styles are trimmed with pleatings that form a basque marking the waist. A few are showing a resurrection of the accordion pleating. FLORENCE FAIRBANKS.
