ILATEST IN
• LINGERIE
NEW YORK, Dec. IB.—Clouds
aren’t the only things that have silver
linings these days. No indeedy, not if
you have noticed the shiny new lin
gerie. Made of cloth of gold and cloth
of silver it is and if you own an under
bodice or a combination of this pre
cious sheen you can feel positively
that you are up to the last scratch of
fashion. And you probably do too.
Petticoats of these shimmering fabrics
are dreams of moonbeams and sun
beams elaborately incrusted with gold
| and silver lace as well. In days of
old kings thought they were going
some when they donned suits of gold
and silver armour but fashion’s queens
have certainly gone a few steps fur
' ther today when they affect lingerie
d’or and d’argent.
Entire gowns for evening wear of
these precious mettalized fabrics are
! as beautiful as they are popular and
j Mary Nash in “The Man Who Came
j Back’’ is showing a stunning example
j of a silver cloth, one inset with silver
lace.
Cloth of gold and cloth of silver
slippers have of course become al
most too common for words and ai'e
! bound soon to be only worn by the
poor and pasee considerng the con
stantly soaring price of calf skin.
Hats, large and cartwheelish, of
gold and silver lace, are much in evi
dence on heads that show also a sus
piciously copper glint. For you really
have to be on your metal these days
and have the metal on you even if it
means resorting to the help of henna.
Boudoir caps of gold and silver lace
and gold and silver tissue also prove
that not only plumbing, raidiators,
munitions and machines may boast
metal caps.
Alas, ho vever, they don’t act quite
the sam^ way and a tired and temper
mental lady may never hope to let all
steam simply by doffing her boudoir
cap of gold.
All gold and silver cloth evening
wraps with cape collars and cuffs of
fur are gorgeous enough to make King
Henry the Eighth and his famous
Field of the Cloth of Gold like a
piker.
| Fairy fans of gold and silver gauze
j and gold and silver cobweb lace flutter
j and twinkle under the artificial lights
ii.ro „o many silvery dew drops or
golden fire flies. /
One particularly bright, shining and
novel fan I discovered in an artistic
new shop the other day. It is of hum
ble paper origin but all beautifully
covered with gold leaf, sticks and all.
A Chinese hieroglyphic done in a
bright blue, green and purple breaks
the golden monotony of one of its
folds and dangling from its sticks is
a silken cold of matching color, gay
with beads and finished with a festive
Chinese tassel or a handy finger ring
of jade wherewith to anchor its flut
tering beauty ready to its fair own
er’s hand.
The new Oriental, Medieval and Byz
antine tea gowns and negligees that
now have such a royal vogue are of
course replete with gold and slver tis
sues, laces and galloons.
Because of these present precious
fabris, these many metalized modes,
divers are the poor swains who go
questing the golden girl a la Richard
Le Galienne who are bound to be
stung. They will find seeming golden
girls on every hand and silver queens
as well. But let them beware and re
member that a gold wash and a silver
plate has a time limit of wear. In
the majority of cases the twenty-two
caret finish is only gown and lingerie
deep, the golden or the copper tress
has a henna or peroxide base and base
deceit it is. Let the wary wooer be
not dazzled by the outer shell but let
him first test his precious pet in the
crucible of love and find if her heart
be of gold as well and if she has a
sterling character.

(Seward Post)
Attorney L. V. Ray, who returned
from Anchorage Monday- night, states
that all of the cases pending against
men at Anchorage on the charge of
gambling were dismissed after the
jury disagreed in the case of Reed
and Dahl.
Owing to the fact that all property
where gambling is conducted is liable
to be declared forfeited by the gov
ernment, the owners who had been ar
rested retained Ray to defend them.
“The entire matter was nothing
more or less than a controversy be
tween the department of the interior
and department of justice,” said Ray.
1 “It is difficult to prevent gambling
Ibetween individuals and people rath
| er resent orders prohibiting them
! from shaking dice for a cigar. If we
j are to live under a blue law regime it
| would also be necessary to stop pool
games and bowling where the loser
i pays.
“I found that there are several pro
i fessional gamblers at Anchorage. It
j is a notorious fact that a gambler
| will quit when ordered. In this in
i stance it seems that the former dep
j uty marshal relegated too many du
ties to his subordinates and did not
, see that his orders were carried out.
1 The department of the interior in
i stead of keeping after the department
of justice for results employed its
own special agents.
j “These stool pigeons secured the
! evidence on which arrests were made.
| The jury disagreed after hearing their
| evidence in the case of Reed and Dahl.
1 assured the officials that a disagree
ment might be expected in future ca
ses, at the same time pointing out
that the arrests had produced the de
sired effect; to-wit, the professional
gamblers had agreed to quit. So
rather than go to trial at added ex
pense the cases were dismissed.”
Ray stated that he had aroused the
ire of officials of the land department
of the railroad by scoring them for ar
resting men for gambling after their
own gamble in selling lots there on
guarantee of making it a harbor. He
also scored them for going too far in
their efforts to regulate the personal
and private conduct of residents in
their town. The trial was held in
Moose hall and several hundred peo
ple heard the arguments in the case.
LIQUOR DESTROYED BY
UNITED STATES MARSHAL
—
(Seward Gateway)
The liquor seized by the govern
ment authorities at Anchorage was
destroyed today on the beach by Unit
ed States Deputy Marshal Evans, act
ing on instructions from Marshal
Brenneman. The liquor destroyed
amounted to 218 cases of whiskey and
beer all told. Mr. Evans waited un
til he received word from the marshal
before selling or disposing in any oth
er way of the stock. The sale of it
was to have taken place last week,
but protests, begun by the Gateway
and acted upon by the Woman’s club,
caused the authorities to change
their minds. Quite a few people went
to the beach near the old powder
house to witness the work. Mr. Ev
ans, assisted by William Weaver and
Mike Johnson, smashed the bottles de
liberately one by one and in bunches.
