They Watch for Bargains and Seem About as Much at Ease in the Big Stores as Do Their Wives and Sis ters. Do you know (this is for our own sex and is strictly confidential) that men are becoming experienced shop pers, that some of them search for bargain announcements as persistently as do women, and that it is the ex ceptional man nowadays who feels be wildered when he enters one of the dry goods stores In St. Paul? We didn't know until a saleswoman assured us of the fact the other day when we were trying to match a sam ple of "Vat" lace. 'Of course," said the girl who imparted the informa tion, "1 don't get these shoppers often. The only men customers I get are those who live in 'the suburbs and whose wives have entrusted them with the task of matching a piece of lace. But the girls in the other departments declare that the number of men cus tomers is constantly increasing, and that they are for the most part bach elors. You see, they have flats or suites of rooms to be fitted up, and I suppose they like to do that sort of thing themselves. You just ask Miss Blank over there. She'll tell you about men customers." So we stopped at the "notions" counter and interviewed Miss Blank. "Vps, indeed." she said promptly; "we have any number of men customers «ho come in to buy little things for their rooms or their apartments. Do they ask our advice? Not a bit of it. Ten years ago they did, but today they me just as independent as the woman shoppers. No, I've never seen any of than at our "crush" bargain sales— it would be dreadful if they came, for I suppose, like the women, they'd leave their manners at horne —but they al ways seem to know whc-n an article is being marked down." The information given by these saleswomen offers proof indisputable that the "new" man as well as the "new" woman has arrived. How are we going to like him? This Is really the important question. And, by the way, we pause right here to declare that we have no patience with those women who, in various magazines, are constantly discussing the kind of wom en men approve of. What really counts is the kind of man women approve of. He counts, indeed, very much. But about the shopper. We're really glad to hear that the department store no longer represents a labyrinth to him, and that he can purchase a spool of thread without the assistance of a woman friend. Unless he gets "fussy" mid unless his bargain hunting be comea too persistent, there is no rea son why he should not be encouraged In his independence. One person, at least, promises not to raise her eye brows superciliously when she meets a brother shopper at a nine o'clock eilk sale, and that is MAINLY ABODT PEOPLE A very quiet wedding occurred last evening at the residence of Mrs. E.

But Miss Darlington was interested keenly and stood up with binocular leveled at the horses. The long lines of her pongee coat and a floating tan veil could be seen from every part of the parking space. When the Palm Beach season was lagging last winter Mrs. Henry M. Flagler gave a costume ball and told a few persons that one of the guests would be "the prettiest girl in Ameri ca." The statement aroused great In terest. The -prettiest girl" was Miss Darlington, and In her eighteenth cen tury brocade she was a great success. Friends of Mrs. Flagler said her as sertion had . been proved. At Palm Beach the Pittsburg girl became friendly with the Duchess of Man chester and the Countess de Castellane. Mrs. Flagler is devoted to the young girl. Miss Darlington has dark brown hair and an Ivory white skin. Her brown eyes are deep set and expres sive. Wrist bags of the old pouch style have passed. The flat leather satchels seem to be approved, and it is surpris ing to see how many vivid red bags, with huge brass initials, are used by women of refinement. Beaded bags are in good taste, and in the high-class shops these articles are at fancy prices. Mrs. Gouverneur Kortright carries a bag with black and white glass beads. It is of reticule shape apd swings on a silken cord. This bag was carried by Mrs. Kortrighfs grandmother.

To the tune of the footman's horn the Charles Baudouine coach may be seen rolling along the old Boston post road, Milton road and other pictur esque ways in Westchester county. The Baudouires are coaching enthusiasts, and their neighbors are wondering how long the fad will last at the rate of a coach ride every day. It is seldom the black and yellow coach has any one except Mr. and Mrs. Baudouine aboard. They have a skeleton coach as well, and Mr. Baudouine handles the ribbons with skill now, although earlier in the season a groom sat near him in case the four horses should "cut up." The Baudouines belong to the Orien ta Point set. It is said residents of Larchmont are as luxurious as the Newporters, but Larchmont affairs do not receive so much publicity. The Baudouines and Mr. and Mrs. Jackson Gouraud are the leaders of the "spend ing set." Mrs. Gouraud was Miss Amy Crocker. A story is told about a Larch mont woman who was struggling for social recognition. Her chief asset was a large bank account. She gave an elaborate dinner, costing many thou sands of dollars. She sat up nights thinking over plans and !found an orig inal one. Her guests Sttt at a table that represented Larchmont harbor. The yacht of each guest was imitated in sugar and almond paste, and they were wonders of the confectioners' art. The harbor was a huge mirror. The women guests received for souvenirs fantail pigeons. After the dinner ten negroes performed a cake walk. With all this display and although the hostess tried hard enough, the facts of this costly dinner did not become public. Lady Kathleen Lindsey, the Irish woman who has done something to en liven the waning season at Newport, is showing great skill on horseback. She rides to the Monmouth hounds and soon will go to Westbury for the au tumn fox hunts. Lady Kathleen is the daughter of the Earl of Carrick. Her husband is plain Capt. Lindsey. Be sides her feats in the saddle. Lady Kathleen has other claims to distinc tion. While, not actually pretty, she has a fascinating manner, and West bury folks are falling over one another to play host to the earl's daughter. She and the captain probably will visit William C. Whitney in Hempstead. His stables will be at the disposal of the titled horsewoman. ITEMS FROM EVERYWHERE Instead of a dazzling summer cam paign led by the sister, Lady Curzon of Kedlestone, the Leiters had a rather stupid time at Bar Harbor, except for a gay fortnight engineered by their brother "Joe." Many entertainments were given in the Maine resort with out the presence of the Chicago girls. The Leiters were in seclusion most of the time. The two sisters sailed yes terday for Liverpool. They will rent a house for the winter in London. The Leiters are devoted to English ways, and the Middle Western twang the girls had ten years ago has given away to a British pronounciation. Moreover, in London the Leiters have an excel lent position, and Miss Daisy, who is more interesting than Miss Nannie, is said to be one of the most popular young women mere. Contrary to all expectations, neitner sister has been married. After Miss Mary Leiter was married to Curzon, a most advantageous match, it was reasonable to suppose the remaining sisters, who were good looking if not beautiful, also would .marry into the nobility. Lady Cunfojß extended a powerful helping hand*. a,nd the Letters went everywhere. Prince Frances of Teck and Miss Daisy >vere seen to gether so frequently »lw was selected by gossips as the futup-ejprincess. But that active campaign is a thing of the past. Both sisters axe nearing the thirty-year mark, and ii* the last two years the gossips have .ceased troub ling themselves about the Chicago maids. Is it possible either intends to remain unmarried? As they have had many offers, it does peem as if they do not choose to take tjh^nces. A woman was saying the other day that Bar Harbor was the most snobbish spot on the bosom of Mother Earth. "I think," she said, "some of those society-mad matrons -would cut their own mothers unless the mothers were in the 'set.' " The line is drawn rigidly, and one either Is included in all the fashionable parties or is classified as "a hotel person." Formerly Bar Har bor was a blissfully democratic place, where folk went in for a good time and forgot the conventions and "Who's who?" But when certain fashionable we men of New York and Philadelphia settled there as summer colonists there followed an invasion of struggling women who hoped to scrape up a sum mer acquaintance, and in this way get a town footing. These eager ones are responsible for the present tone of Bar Harbor. A yarn is told about a mon eyed young fellow from Chicago, who was slipping into the right set when some Chicago friends appeared at the Hotel Malvern. Although he knew mother and daughter well in the West he passed them in the corridors with out a smile of recognition. He con tinued this caddish attitude all sum mer.

One of the advantages of this handsome velvet is that it is so heavy the wearer might dispense with a wrap on the coldest day. When combined with fur, chiffon velvet is one of the most modish frib rics on the market. It is a pity stamped velvets were doomed because they became common. About two years ago these velvets were shown in a wonderful assortment. The stamped velvets "caught on" at once. Imitators found they could reproduce these velvets cheaply, in fact, some were sold at 69 cents a yard, and the woman who had paid seven times this sum for material for her carriage robe feit impelled to give away her unfash ionable gown. Cruched velvets are al ways good and many women will re turn to gun metal gray and pure blacks. Fashion decrees that these vel vet robes be trimmed with fur and net lace, as formerly. Mi*s Roosevelt's New Fad. WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 5.-Miss Alice Roosevelt apparently has for saken the automobile fad and taken to tandem driving. She never drove a tandem until this afternoon, when she swept along the city streets, round corners, and up to the White house door, with all the ease and nonchalance of an old-time horsewoman. Miss Roosevelt when she first came to the White house was only a daring rider on a level highway. Since then she has learned jumping, and now she can take the president's highest hurdle She has followed the hounds, always coming: in near the lead. She can drive a four-horse coach team with grace, and she runs an automobile in a manner to take your breath away. She Is daring and jaunty about it all, but never reckless. Miss Roosevelt's companion of the afternoon and the owner of the jaunty turnout is one of her friends in the diplomatic set. Poems Worth Reading j NO ESCAPE.

DEPARTMENT TO INSPECT COLLECTOR'S PRESENTS Report That Officials at Porto Rico Were Favored to Be Investigated. WASHINGTON, D. C, Oct. s.—The treasury department is about to con duct a further investigation into charges that Collector of Customs A. R. Cruzen at San Juan, Porto Rico, had accepted presents of more or less value from certain large importers and ship agents and an inspector will be sent to the island for that purpose. The charges were investigated and made the subject of a report last February by Special Agent Leslie Cullom, in which he said that the collector did not deny that he had received certain presents, but did- deny he made any request or demand for them. The collector in his defense declared that the inspector's report was badly col ored, but he acknowledged receiving some presents, asserting, however, that none of them were of a character on which duty had not been paid. Mr. Cruzen recently has spent a month in the United States and has returned or will shortly return to Porto Rico. He was appointed from Nebraska. SAM PARKS IS DECLARED TO BE ALL IN Buchanan Says Famous Walking Delegate Is Through. KANSAS CITY, life, Oct. 5— Presi dent Buchanan, former Vice President Butler, Secretary-Treasurer Johns ton, James Coakley and William Burke, members of the executive board of the Iron Workers union, left for home to night. The executive board met lr,st night, but it is expected that the board will meet in New York within two weeks. Before Sam Parks left for New York Saturday night, he saidfc "When I came here I said there would be a strike called on the East river bridge. Since they want Buchanan, that goes." President Buchanan said tonight: "As the head of the international order, I say there will be no strike of bridge men on the East river bridge. I can rally to my support 3.700 men in New York city today. Sam Parks has dug his own grave and he will be repudiated by his own people. "For the first time I will express my self on certain events of the convention. In the first place, I think a great mis take was made in seating New York No. 2. It had been suspended at the request of better element of the union. I was urged repeatedly to take such action, but did not do so until the matter was brought up in the executive board meeting, not withstanding what the Parks people may way. After reviewing the situation I said I believed it my duty to suspend that lo cal. There was no protest and accord ingly I did so. Had the convention been in possession of all the facts, perhaps its action would have been different. A com mittee of the better element was to come from New York and present its side. The majority of the delegates from the first believed No. 2 should be represented, and when it became evident that this was to be the sense of the convention, the other delegation was wired not to come. The unseating of Parks here, however, would have hastened what is now bound, to come, his elimination as a power in the labor circles of New York. The fight will now be carried on vi the East, but the result will be the same. "As to Parks' declarakion that he has tied my hands by electing an executive board favorable to him. that is nonsense. I know I have the support of four out of six, not counting my own vote." r".

From earliest boyhood I was accustomed to fancy myself a military hero, a distinguished purist, artist, clergyman, but my fa vorite dream was to be Immensely rich and known as a great philan thropist. There was but one person to whom I ever told my dreams, my little playmate, Jennie Davey, who, as a child, was much pleased with them, but she had no sooner given up her doll than she gave up interest in my dreams. Indeed, at sixteen she said to me: "Vail, you'll never amount to anything in the world. Instead of giv ing away money lavishly you'll be beg ging it from others." This speech was a blow to me. It should have taught me to stop dream ing and bestir myself. Had I not been from my birth a besotted dream er doubtless it would have helped me. As it was it stimulated me to take the only action a dreamer is capable of. I read of the gold fields of Colorado, and when I was twenty-one and paid v legacy of $500 that had been left me by my aunt I departed for the golden state. When I reached the goal I hud sot out for. Colorado, I went to a hotel, where I met a man who sold me a claim for what money I had left, which I discovered soon after was worthless. Then I dreamed that I would find a fortune prospecting, and wandered about with a pick on my shoulder, which I had no time to put into the earth, because I was constantly lost In a dream as to what I would do with the proceeds of my bonanza mine when I should find it. The consequence was that I was one day picked up by a prospector in a state of rags and star vation. He was nearly as ragged as I and completely discouraged. However, he took me to his camp and gave me something to eat, and after supper I wove for him a chain of circumstances which would end in fabulous wealth for him. The next day he went to work with renewed vigor, permitting me to remain with him for the sake of my stimulating dreams. Every evening I would weave a new fancy, sending him out the next day with new vigor. The result was that one'day he struck a bonanza. "I'd never 'a done It but for you," he said, and when he organized a company to work his mine he gave me half his stock and left me the other half in his will. Then something happened that had never entered my dreams for him —he was killed, while blasting. That gave me three-quarters of the stock of the biggest paying mine in Colorado. I hadn't time to operate it myself. I was too busy dreaming how I would surprise the folks at home. So I left It PREPARING FOR LIVELY STEEL WAR IN CANADA American Corporations Ready to Cut Prices Over the Border. OTTAWA Can.. Oct. 4.—lt is stated that the United States Steel corporation threatens to flood the Canadian market and then slaughter prices. In corrobora tion it is pointed out that the war be tween the American Steel and Wire com pany, a connection of the Steel trust, and the Canadian manufacturers of wire rods is just about beginning, and promises to be lively. The American Steel and Wire company recently advanced the price of rod.s to such a figure that Canadian manufactur ers were forced to buy in the British market or from the small concerns in the United States. As a retaliatory step the American Steel and Wire company planned to flood Canada with its wire and wire nails at slaughter prices.

Oct. 5—A conven tion of Armenians, representing forty-two Armenian colonies of the United States andlCanada. met in this city tonight and I adopted a memorial and appeal.urotestir.2 in charge of the directors and started eastward. Of course, it would have spoiled al! my dreams to go back and at once an nounce myself a gold king. To make a fine climax, I dressed myself In the rags that I had on when good luck struck me, and one day stood before the house where Jennie lived. She was going to the well for water, and. see ing what she thought a hungry-looking tramp on the road, said: "Wait and I'll give you a nice piece of bread." When she returned with the water, and saw me, I thought she was going to topple over. "For heaven's sake. Vail," she said, "where did you come from? And is this what your dreams have brought you to?" "Jennie," I said, "what would you think if I were to tell you that I'd been prospecting In Colorado and found a big mine and had come home to make you and your mother and your father and all your brothers and sis ters rich?" "Oh, Vail!" she said. with team starting to her eyes. "Since you've been away. I've hoped that you would get your dreams knocked out of you. You are the best fellow, the loveliest fellow in the world, and but for " "Jennie," I Interrupted, "have you dreamed that I would redeem myselt and come back, and you and I would enjoy the fruits of my industry to gether?" She made no reply to this, but I knew by a fresh outburst of tears that she had been doing that very thing. "Well, sweetheart," I went on, "I've dreamed that I've got a big mine and it's turning out $700 a day " "Oh, Vail!" She sat down on the porch and bur ied her face In her hands. "Jennie, dear" —I went to her and put my arms around her, while with the other hand I took hers away from her weeping eyes—"H.s true, every word of It," and pulled out a fat roll of bills, every one a hundred dollars, she looked at me in horror, thinking I'd stolen It. "Listen to me, Jennie. There's no faculty that may not be useful, even dreaming. I was starving in these clothes when I met a man who pos sessed what I do not—energy—and I what he did not —a fancy capable of lifting him out of a despondency that that would have conquered when oth erwise he was fated to make a mar velous success. He gave me my por tion, and, dying, left me his." I married Jennie and became a phil anthropist, dispensing funds through her, for I am too busy with my dreams to attend to the practical results of the ones.
