But the petticoat of today bears little resemblance to its nineteenth century ancestors, which were worn by the dozen in- stead of singly, and which were garnished by -horsehair and bro- cade, and made stiffly of starched muslin. A hint of a ruffle is evident on some of the new models, but the modern petticoat is a simple, form-fitting garment, distinguish- ed for the most part by good de- sign, and materials that can be quickly and easily freshened in a goap and water bath. This passion for petticoats be- conservatively enough early in the nineteenth century, when the average woman wore a mere three layers over her lace-trim- med pantalettes. One of them was invariably padded from waist to knee and contained inserts of whalebone and horsehair cloth. As skirts grew wider, the num- ber of petticoats needed to extend them gradually increased. Layer upon layer of starched and re- ruffled petticoats were worn over the heavier foundation garments, For many years, a woman's social status was largely determined by the number of petticoats she wore. ' When the crinoline gave way first to the bustle, and then to a simpler outer skirt, a single petti- coat became the order of the day. Skirts that trailed to the ground and had to be lifted to make then became Smart women soon acquired a special technique of "carrying" the skirt, revealing glimpses of the pettitoat.

The short length coat, in many cases is sup- plied with an alternative full- length overcoat, very acceptable to the motoring or sporting wo- man. One such model in brown- ish Cumberland tweed hag an orl- ginal note in patches of rounded fur on the pockets, and the same flat brown carcul makes the roll collar which reaches to the bot- tom of the coat. Flat furs are the mode of the moment. The wide belt of suede fastens at the waist- line. Nothing is complete without the belt. If it does not appear on the coat it is transferred to the frock beneath, and it may be as wide as six inches. In a cossack ensemble of the latest violet blue the beltless long coat, tailored to fit the figure and with a wide-revered collar of gray Persian paw, has an accom- panying frock in lighter weight tweed which sports the belt threaded through a slot of the tweed at one side of the waist. Watch Sleeves and Collars Sleeves and collars on the ear- ly 'autumn models are worth watching and show a complete change of policy on the part of the designer. Sleeves may be quite narrow and unadorned from shoulder to wrist; some may be tight to the elbow and pouched above, and others are furtrim- med in all sorts of ways. Ior in- stance, the upper part of the sleeve is sometimes made entire- ly of broadtail, or broadtail cloth, ortthere can be just a sin- gle band of fur at the wrist, or again a triangular strip of fur at the cuff may be continued as far as the elbow. Double collars of fur standing away from the neck and reaching to the ear are a fea- ture of the present-day coats and still newer are the wide reveres London, waist where the coat is held tight to the figure often with only a single big button. MORE TROUBLE AT KINGSTON PEN. "Nipped in the Bud" Kingston, Sept. 2.--The Whig Standard yesterday said: "For the past few days rumors have been in circulation of grave troutle narrowly averted at the Kingston Penitentiary, and there was even talk of a projected general jail delivery that was nipped in the bud just a day or 80 previous to the time set for its consummation, When high officials were approached on the subject by the Whig-Standard, seeking to obtain verification or denial of the humors, these men refused absolutely to dis- cuss the matter and - were as silent as the grave itself. "Despite the silence, however, the Whig-Standard persisted -in its efforts to learn the truth or untruth of the rumors and as a consequence of these independent efforts it learned that for several days last week an investigation into the whole affair was con- ducted by Brig.-Gen. Hughes, Superintendent of Penitentiaries, and that the result of this in- vestigation is the shocking dis- closure that under the leader- ship of the famous or infamous 'Two-gun' O'Brien, a mutiny and general jail delivery were plan- ned in the penitentiary, and that as a consequence of this the five ring-leaders are now in solitary confinement, to safeguard against any further danger from that source. Ugly Weapons in Readiness "Superintendent Hughes him- self, when questioned on the matter, declined absolutely to be interviewed, or to discuss it, while Warden Ponsford, over the telephone said: 'There has been no disturbance in this in- stitution since ("Red") Ryan ran away." Despite this silence on the part of Superintendent Hughes and this statement on (the part of Warden Ponsford, jue Whig-Standard is assured of fur which reach almost to the | General Jail Delivery Just | WHAT NEW YORK IS WEARING By Annabelle Worthington Tllustrated Dressmaking Lesson Furnished with Every Pattern An entirely new sleeve treat- ment brings distinction to this model, whose graceful skirt adds a peplum frill, emphasizing the flat slimness of the hips.

Not only that, but as further proof of this proposed mutiny, it is stated, that some eight or ten murderous daggers and stilettos of from a foot to a foot and one- half in length, several of them two-edged, and as sharp as raz- ors, were discovered in the machine shop; and, that' it was with these that . the five ring- leaders were to be armed and undertake the preliminary steps leading to the general jail reliv- ery. "As it happened, one inmate of the penitentiary chanced to overhear the plot being hatched, and realizing that it meant bloodshed and murder, he re- ported the matter to one of the officials with the result that the whole plot was uncovered and the concealed weapons dis- covered." BONES THOSE OF IMMIGRANTS Remains Found at. Ux- bridge Not Those of Soldiers Oakville.-- Skeletons recently unearthed on a farm near Ux- bridge were those of Irish im- migrants and not of soldiers as at first believed, in the opinion of! Joel MacKinder, Pine Ave, here. Mr. MacKinder was great- ly interested in the find because his mother had known some members of the families who left Ireland for new homes in Can- ada about 1845-46 following the disastrous potato famine in their own land. Twenty-one sailing ghips car- ried whole families with the household goods, horses and conveyances across the ocean toward their new homes. On board were between 12,000 and 20,000 souls from the counties of King's, Queen's and Tipperary near Dublin. It was more than six weeks before the flotilla of boats landed near Montreal. Typhus, or ship's fever, broke out in the convent where the men, women and children were housed, killing 300 or 400 of their number. They were buried in a great pit nearby. Doctors were puzzled at the outbreak and thought it had been brought on by the water which they had been drinking on board ship. By forced marches the great cavalcade made their way up the north shore of the St. Lawrence river through country which vas best described as a howling wildernes The disease continued to take its toll and at. every place the dead were tumbled into the pit. Uxbridge, were found, is been the last party came into muddy York, and their long trek. "My mother knew these families in Ireland she came out to Canada after years. when I was small some of these same immigrants visited my mother in Trafalgar township," Mr. MacKinder ex- plained. "They told her this ill-fated trip and she by additmnal information through her correspondence with friends in Ireland. passed the information on to me." Mr. MacKinder scoffs at the possibility of -Brock's men hav- ing been buried near Uxbridge. "There is nothing in history to back up that theory," he said. "The fighting was confined to the settlements where there was something to fight for. And the soldiers were certainly buried a more decent manner than that. These unfortunate people had the clothes removed from their bodies before they were buried and the clothing was handed on to the survivors.r That was a fatal mistake. If the clothing had been burned the disease would have been brought under control. Soldiers buried in their uniforms."
