SENSATIONS TO
THE TRIAL Mrs. Abbie T. Hoxie Has Sued Her Husband for Divorce Following Scandal. GROUNDS FOR COMPLAINT. BATHING SUIT EPISODE AND TELEPHONE CONVERSATION ARE BROUGHT FORTH IN THE DOCUMENTTRIAL WILL BE IN MAY. Portsmouth, X. II., March 3 There in to bo a reopening of the sensational Hoxie-Walker case. Unsuccessful in ber JoO.OOO alienation suit against the beautiful and wealthy Mrs. Mary J Walker, of Elyria, Ohio, widow of Arthur W. Walker, the New England lumber king, Mrs. Abbie T. Hoxie has sued her husband, Joseph Hoxie, the artist, for divorce. She filed ber petition yesterday and recounts all of the lurid charges made in the alienation suit. She pays partic Uar attention to the "necklace" phono conversation, and swears that she heard Mrs. Walker over the phone say to her husband: "Don't you want to come over and fan me, dear, I've nothing on but my necklace and earrings." She insists that such a conversation leads to the presumption that her husband and Mrs. Walker were intimate. She also recalls the bathing suit episode and adds lo it by alleging that her husband met the butler and his friend while they were carrying Mrs. Walker home, and that Hoxie helped Mrs. Walker into the. house and then helped her off with the damaged bathing suit and bloomers. Mrs. Hoxie also goes over all the "phone kisses," with exclamations of "Dearie, dearie, dearie," and conversations, and winds up by charging that "the defendant was unfaithful to the plaintiff daily and sometimes oftener, and that in each and; every case the co-respondent was . Mrs. Mary F. Walker. The case will com up for trial In May. It is likely to exceed the alienation suit in sensations. SIX GIRLSPR0P0SE Made an Attack on the Heart Of an Illinois Confirmed Bachelor.

This rose perfume, which is peculiarly narcotic, is made of the sweetest wild roses to be found in the south of France.

Here there is a lady of the court whose nostril is unusually keen and whose taste in perfumes Is perfect. And to her is given the final testing of the scent She puts a little on her handkerchief, presses it to' her nostrils, holds the handkerchief away six inches from her nose, and takes a deep inhalation.

Sometime ago we announced in the columns of this paper that she would send free treatment to every woman who suffered from female diseases or piles. More than a milion women have accepted this generous offer, and as Mrs. Miller is still receiving requests from thousands of women from all parts of tne world, who have not yet used the remedy, she has decided to continue the offer for awhile longer, at least.

It is especially prepared for the speedy and permanent, cure of leuchorrhoea or whitish discharges, ulceration, displacements or falling of the wotnb- profuse, scanty or painful perioas. uterine or ovarian Tumors or growths .also pains in the head, back and bowels, bearing down feelings, nervousness, creeping feeling up the spine, melancholy, desire to try, hot flashes, weariness and piles from any cause, or no matter of how long standing.

UTILE THINGS OF LINGERIE PETTICOAT ECONOMY. In making lingerie petticoats the flounce is gathered and stitched to length of beading the width of the foundation skirt. Then stitch another leneah of beading on foundation skirt vhere ton of flounce will come. Then lace the two headings together. They can't be separated on wash day, saving time and strength. BOWS, NOT ROSETTES. For the woman who makes her own neckwear the following fashion note from Paris will be suggestive: The smart girl now wears a wide ribbon bow pinned to the comers of her collar instead of the little rosettes that have been worn. They are pinned on by means of a riding crop or whit) pin or a jewel decorated feather measuring from five to six inches in length. a PETTICOAT HINT. If annoyed by the dust-holding qualities of the ordinary petticoat ruffle, as well as by the rapidity with which it wears out, try cutting the next one in circular form. Use two yards of yard-wide taffeta, cut in two circles a yard in diameter, I then cut a similar circle from the cen- ; ter of each, leaving a ruffle a foot in 1 width. Cut open the circular ruffles on a j straight edge and join the tw-o pieces : with felled seams. HAIR ORNAMENTS. Pretty hair ornaments are extremely popular, especially with the younger contingent.

INTEREST TO WOMEN they will further enhance her charms. Feathers, aigrettes and butterflies may be all right for the matron, but for herself she chooses a half wreath formed of tiny flowers, and she places it coquettishly in her fluffy hair and goes forth to conquer. She attaches a knot of ribbon where it will do the most good, ami perhaps there is a rosette at either end. The hair ornament is now a recognized feature of the evening costume, and a woman does not consider her toilette completed until she adjusts the particular flower or feather that is to finish off her coiffure. Much taste is shown in the arrangement of these hair ornaments, and some very attractne ones have been seen lately. The illustrations show a few of the most popular styles. Any clever girl can make up her own ornaments with a few deft twists of ribbon and a cluster of rosebuds or' other small, dainty blossoms. " For the little boys nothing is prettier than the blouse suite, and these allow- of almost infinite variety and charm. Just now black and velvet and velveteen with the big sailor collar scalloped with white silk, and worn with a white shield, is much liked. Dark blue velvet and velveteen are always handsome, and, for the very tiny boys, white ribbed silk Is charming to ; the extreme. Again, the black suits can be worn with all white eollars either of pique or of silk, with the result that even while style and cut re-, main thp sam there need be nothing i more like monotony in the tiny boy's costumes than is fouud in his sister's.! For the older boys the Tuxedo is the accepted costume, but it can be made of velvet, velveteen or cloth, as pre-j
