' J J Mrs. J. B. Craighead who has been the guest of her daughter, Mrs. Miles Bland, , in Pittsburg has returned home.

Easter morning breakfast favors are more than ever novel this season and s the entertainments are generally participated in by the . children the greatest ingenuity Is expended in developing designs showing all the familiar domestic animals harnessed with bright ribbons and wearing wreaths of flowers." The pure white woolly lamb is particularly. popular at present and is utilized to draw basket chariots laden with flowers and fruits and confectionery. One of these designs shows a miniature victoria of lacquer, with a flower top, , driven by a liveried coachman and drawn by four white swans. Fairies play an important role in the favors designed especially for children's parties and many of them are really doll works of art with rolling eyes and movable limbs that. work by inward mechanism, and with
frocks and wings sewn with imitation gems. They dance on flower candy boxes. JS d Of course a number of hostesses will entertain with Easter luncheons and there Is no reason why the Easter entertainer should find herself perplexed in providing novel and pretty souvenirs for the day's entertainment. All she has to do is to make up her mind what to choose out of the array of Easter novelties offered and to decide upon whether her luncheon or party is to be altogether grave or gay. On the counters in the shoos devoted to seasonable souvenirs she will find something to fit every condition of mind and purse, and she can have a different souvenir for every guest and every course without using up all the attractive ones to be had. Jl Ji Jl The Metropolitan opera house of New York, has announced the engagement of Madame Nordica for next year. J Jl Jl The Juniors of Shortridge high school, Indianapolis, will give their annual "prom" this evening.

Within the next five years an en
largement to the Y. M. C. A. building
will be necessary, according to officers of the association. Realizing this,
they already have plans under consideration for the necessary addition. It
is probable that the boy's department
will be taken entirely out of the present building and a structure erected on the site now occupied by St. Mary's school to accommodate this department.
A Desirable Move. In all of the more modern association buildings the boy's department and the senior departments are entirely separate from each other. When they are combined as they are here, there are certain restrictions which have to be made on the older members. It is because of this fact that the officials will not make any arrangements for a smoking room for the older members. There are no rooms which could be used for this purpose with any degree of privacy. The example offered by a number of men sitting around a room smoking would not be a very good standard for the association, according to the officials. There are several other restrictions whieh have to be made under present circumstances which would be eliminated if the younger members were in an entirely separate building. The St. Mary's school building site is considered to be the best. It adjoins the association building and the
new building would no doubt be connected to the present structure, so
that access could be had to the gym
nasium and the basement. The erection of a building large enough to accommodate the needs of the boy's de
partment would not demand a large
outlay of money, it is believed.

New York. April 6. The Spring; Hat, with a cargo of cherries, apple blossoms, costly velvet trimmings and some real hair, was sunk in the North
river yesterday noon after collision in midstream with the tugboat Irene. The Irene was able to make her pier under ber own 6 team, but the rope fender at her cut-water was badly mussed. No lives wfre lost.
The Spring Hat was crossing the
river on the Jersey Central ferry-boat Elizabeth. Her owner was on the lower deck forward, giving her complexion a breeze bath. The light airs suddenly increased to a quarter gale and got under the immense overhanging of the Spring Hat. The pressure
was too great for the moorings. Three
hatpins bent upward like straws, thereby releasing the great structures above, to be the plaything of the ele
ments. The pins remained sticking up like the quills of a porcupine.
The Spring Hat was carried rapid
ly aft and bumped into the side of the Elizabeth, but as it was a glanc
ing blow, the ferry-boat sustained no damage, although the passengers were startled by the Jar. The Hat became unmanageable "almost as soon as it hit the water, bottom up. The cargo of cherries shifted and the hair rolls, which should have stayed with the pins, became water soaked and caused a dangerous list to port. Captain Hassan of the Irene, who was coming down stream, saw that a collision was inevitable, but rang for full speed astern and threw over his
wneei. materially lessening me mow. As it was. the sharp bow of the tugboat cut clear through the overhanging and pierced the hull of the Spring Hat After making sure that there was nobody aboard the Hat the tugboat and the skipper backed slowly out of the hole he had made. The Spring Hat went down by the brim. The lost craft was of French register, three feet over all. of about the same beam and drew at her trial trip about 25. There was no insurance on hat or hair.

The Gown She Wanted.
A pompous colored woman waddled Into the cloak department of a Cleveland store. "Can I direct you, madam?" inquired one of the managers. "Yes. sah. Ah wants the gown de-paht-ment." "What kind of gowns, madam?" further Inquired the official. "Why, women's gowns, of eo'se." re plied the customer disgustedly. "Tall think Ah wants a gown fo' a man? "But. madam." explained the manager, "you see. we have different kinds of gowns. There are tailor made gowns, evening gowns and nightgowns.' "No. sah." put In the woman promptly, "Ah don' want no tailab made gowns or nightgowns or early In the evenln' gowns. What Ah wants is Jes a plain gown to do wssbin in. Ah wants a ca-Ico wrapper. That's what Ah wants." The Two Highwaymen. X long- have had a quarrel set with Time, Because he robbed me. Every dar ef life Was wrested from me after bitter strife.

Just Like the Nobility. An old English nurse had a very pretty daughter. The girl met a millionaire broker at a week, end party. The man proposed, and they were marriedan excellent match. A friend saw the mother a short time after the wedding. "Molly has done well, hasn't she?" she said. "She has that, ma'am," said the old woman. "Her husband is very rich. Isn't he?" "Ilifb! Save us. yes. Ye should see. - ma'am, Moll's brougham, her coachman and footman, her motor car and her diamonds and pearls. Oh. she lives high-r.uite like the nobility and gentry, ma'am: Why, she strips for dinner.'"
