Appropriation Bills and Two Drafts ' !<!;. \\y (Bffered by City of Chicago Art y, t, if- Passed--Defeat for Tax Increase. ^ Springfield.--The extra session of tife Illinois legislature finished all the business that it could transact and took a recess until February 23, 1916. The ostensible purpose of the re­ cess is to have a precautionary ses­ sion ready if any other emergency arises by way ef the supreme court or otherwise. Before recessing, the senate and house calendars were cleared of all bills that had any chance of pas­ sage. The series of bills correctly creat­ ing state offices and making the nec­ essary appropriations therefor, includ­ ing back pay from July 1, 1915, made necessary by the supreme court opin­ ion in the Fergus case, with the single exception of the office of secretary of the state civil service commission, went through. The bill transferring to the control of the attorney general all appointive attorneyships now maintained by sep­ arate boards and departments was passed. One of the Chicago city hall bills, following the expiration of the first fiscal quarter, but only within the original department to which the ap­ propriation was made and then by a two-thirds vote of the city council, also won out. One of the board of local improve­ ment bills from Chicago permits Urn ited borrowing from other municipal funds for the credit of certain local improvement districts, such as the Twelfth stret widening or the Michi­ gan boulevard link project, was passed without an emergency clause. The bill recreating the Illinois centennial celebration commission and the commission to investigate the op­ eration of all public employees' pen sion funds and to pay for the ex­ pense entailed were passed; also the bill rcapprcpriating . an unexpended balance to the Illinois commission at the San Francisco exposition. The Chicago city hall bill which would have added a one and a half mill tax rate to the city; the five-cent Cook county rate increase, and the bill to validate city hall appropria tion of $500,000, declared unconstiiu tional by the supreme court in the Sergei case, were defeated. All primary election amendment bills, including that reducing the num ber of resignations, that affecting the change of date of the general pri maries, and that to determine specific ally the method of electing national convention delegates, failed of action The bill amending the Tice good roads bill, which- would have permit ted bond issues by townships, was beaten. This did not deal with the $2,000,000 Cook county bond issue matter. Governor Dunne's proposition to submit a constitutional amendment tending to permit the governor to slice legislative appropriations when the bills are submitted to him for ap­ proval failed. Governor Dunne is silent as to whether there will be a second spe­ cial session called by him. His rec­ ognized legislative spokesmen say a proclamation will be issued during holiday week which will get the leg­ islators gack to Springfield about January 10. The December term of the supreme oourt begins Monday. There is every probability that it will hand down de cisions which will determine the rest of the technical points involved in the Fergus case. If so, such matters as require new legislation will go into the call. It appears to be a certainty that there will be provisions for an appropriation for the relief of the a|tock raisers affected by the foot-and mouth epidemic and for the validation of the Cook coutny $2,000,000 bond is­ sue. No attempt was made to force through the house city hall bills that hyii met with disaster in the senate last week. The idea apparently had been to make a second attempt when this special session would reconvene on February 23. The Joiiet prison special appropria tion bill got by, but without an emer gency clause. There was a ripping debate, in which the honor system fU tried out on the floor of the house. The bill for funds to take care of the Chicago appellate courts was pasted, also without an emergency clause. Article* •# Incorporation.

The rates was made in opposition to the judg­ ment of the state treasurer, Andrew Russel, who fears that; 46 cents will not be adequate. Following the meeting Governor Dunne made the following Statement in defense of the rate: "The state tax commission at its meeting fixed the tax rate of the state 6f Illinois for the ensuing year at 55 cents, an increase of 7 cents over the 48 cent rate fixed in the year 1914. "The increase in the state tax rate 1b made necessary by the following ex­ traordinary items of expenditure: For foot-and-mouth disease $1,430,600 •Increased appropriations for state school fund 1,000,000 Increased appropriation for state university Increases and expenses occasioned by the special session of the leg­ islature made necessary by the decision of the supreme court in the suit of Fergus et al. vs. Rus­ sel et al..

Every increase in the appropriation of $260,- 000 makes necessary an addition of 1 cent to the tax rate. Centennial Bill Vetoed. Governor Dunne vetoed the special session bill recreating the Illinois cen­ tennial commission and that making a $10,000 appropriation for the com­ mission. He took this action on the advice of Attorney ' General Lucey. who held the creating bill unconstitu­ tional. All of the ether bills passed by the extraordinary session, making good the appropriations held invalid by the supreme court decision in the Fergus case, were signed. Unless some unexpected legal tech­ nicality intervenes, the way is opened to State Auditor Brady and Statfl Treasurer Russel lo pay the salaries and allowances which have been held up by injunction proceedings and court action lor the last five months. This means thai the long list of clerkB subordinate officials and pay roll at taches in a dozen different boards and departments will be able to draw their back salaries and collect their month ly pay regularly. s Governor Dunno also signed the Chicago bill covering the transfer of funds from one account to another in the financial budget, which carried an emergency clause, and the local im provement bill, without an emergency clause, concerning the right of an lm provement district to borrow from some other municipal jund. le itemized statement shows that ttle, 11,293 hogs. 754 shepp, 30 4 • » • • • • • News Nuggets Prom Illinois Disease Cost Heavy. Illinois' total present liabilities for foot-and-mouth disease losses- are $278,635.79, according to figures an nounced from the office of State Vet­ erinarian O. E. Dyson. This represents one-half the value of appraised ani mals. The sum of $200*000 is now available for the payment of these claims. The iti 6,200 cat goats and 9 deer were killed up to No­ vember 24 in the recent campaign of eradication. MCDonough county waB the heaviest sufferer, having lost a to­ tal of 2,718 cattle, 7,180 hogs, 154 sheep and 22 goats.

Cook county claims amount to $44.- 909.19, one-half the appraised value of 923 cattle, 904 swine and 1 Bheep. Other counties present claims as fol­ lows : Bureau county, $32,320 for 34 cattle and 250 swine. DuPage county, $2,766.75 for 88 cat­ tle and 114 swine. Ford county, $212 for 52 swine.

This room has a pale silvery gray wall. But It doesn't shine. The wood­ work is gray, too. And so is the furni­ ture. But the furniture has delicate yellow cane insets. And they give the keynote for the color in the room. The rug is Chinese. Do you know the lovely color of these rugs? They always seem to me quite old--and pre­ cious. This rug is gray and gold and blue. The windows have curtains of the finoat white silk crepe. These are hung to the sills. The window draper­ ies are of the Chinese cretonne, in yel­ low and Ivory, lined with gray silk. The draw curtains, which hide behind these, and which take the place of the ordinary window shades, are of corded blue silk, matching the blue in tha rug. Two of the chairs hs.ve upholstered seats, which are covered In the cre­ tonne, the backs (by which is meant the ret.r upholstery), are covered with a light old-blue velour. But lust wait until 1 come to the lights! On either side of her dressing table this lady has two bags. In these bags the lady keeps her lights--or. at least, two of them. Someone made these bags for her, without so very much trouble, too. First of all, the wire frame mast be made to order. It will cost fifty cents or seventy-five cents, according to the sice. Ih this particular case the wire was covered with yellow silk. Then yellow silk was used for the bag's out­ side. One strip was fulled on the top rim of wire, then pulled down straight and fulled on the middle horizontal wire. Another piece of yellow silk was fulled on to the middle wire and then pulled back to the bottom on a line with where the wall would be, when it is bunched into quite a small spaco All the yellow silk Is covered with white latef.

The upper part of the bag Is garntshed with small silk roses In vart ous shades of blue and yellow. The lowest point is supplied with a heavy tarnished gold tassel ornament. The bag. which, while rounded out semicircularly in the front. Is parallel with the wall in the back, suspends on three wires from a brass hook in the wall. These wires may be, all three, electric wires, in which case three bulk lights may be within the bag, or Just one of the wires need be electric, resulting in the use of one light. All wires are covered with tarnished gold bullion braid. The braid Is twisted Into a decorative bow or rosette as a top finish. Now. can't you Imagine how beauti­ ful these bag lights are when all aglow? Some are made more plainly, without the lace. And of all the col­ ors. 1 think deep rose is the very prettiest. Taffeta Trimming. White taffeta trims some of the ipost successful sheer white frocks, and this silk is often used very lib­ erally in such combinations, without detracting from the simplicity of tb« frock. Little pinked frills of white taffeta are used in profusion on one model of finest white volte. Another sheer frock of net is trimmed in grad­ uated bands of taffeta from hem to hip and has an odd sleeveless little overbasque of taffeta with a full nar­ row peplum below the cord that marks the waist line. COLORS IN SKATING SUITS Striking Combinations Favored--Cor­ duroy and Velveteen Are Most Popular. The vogue for colors continues to be stronger than ever, especially in suits for wear in skating, which, as we have stated ere this. iB expected to be a popular sport this winter, says the Dry Goods Economist. Some of these suits are made of corduroy and velvet een, others of a c- mbination of velvet and cloth. A few novelty suits Just brought out have leather coat and cloth skirt. Striking combinations are favored for skating wear such as a coat of black, navy or dark brown with a skirt in stripes in a plaid or a large check or in some light plain color, such as white, castor. Quaker gray, dark red. plum, purple or army bluer The coats of these suits are usually made very short. Some are In boi effect, others Uare. and some have the fullness in the peplum. The skirts are very short, are nade with a decided far* aud are often trimmed with bands gf iur around the bottom. Promotes Dujesfion.CheerfuH ness nnd Rest.

The flounced skirts are charming In thin black, whether two, three or five tiered or comnOB<>d of rnw| of little ruffles. A rival of these models Is the petal pointed skirt which, at first plain edged, now often has its points outlined with a narrow frill, sometimes plaited, sometimes gath­ ered. A charming version of this idea was seen a few days since. At first sight It seemed to be composed of haphazard points and frills, but there was really a definite plf>n In the ar­ rangement. There were three tulle skirts, one over. the other; cut Into different shapes, the two top opes edged with ruffles. Their placing ts very clever, and the dainty widening at the hips was insured by a bit of haircloth--orin braid it is, now called --which was placed under the tulle. Flannels for Wool. Outin? and canton flannels are tak­ ing the place of woolens to quite an extent, for It Is not the fact of Its be­ ing wool that gives warmth, but that the fuzziness of the wool holds the air. that great non-conductor of heat and cold. One must not think that because a material Is a mixture of cotton and something else it is necessarily a poor investment. A suiting made of cotton and a good quality of wool would look and wear better than a suiting sold for the same price made entirely of woe.1, for the latter would necessarily be made of such an inferior grade ot wool that It would soon become shape­ less. Chantllly Veila Worn. Veils this year have rome into their own. They not only drop from the top of the high-crowned bats and fall to the Bboulders, but on the wide- brimmed hats, in a number of in­ stances. the veil is finished with a broad band of black velvet, which may either be drawn in around the throat or allowed to bang, as is found becom­ ing Meshes, as a rule, are very light over the face with a delicate dotted design or a border. This is true even of the Chantllly veils, which will be worn extensively, as wel^ as the sim­ pler net meshes. Sleeveless Gowns Passe. Evening dresses are sleeved! Some­ times the sleeves are mere wisps, 'tis true, but yet they cover to an extent milady's pretty sboulders and makes them even prettier for the veiling. K few evening dresses will be sleeveless, but they will be the exception. The 1860 drop shoulder Is also forcing it­ self upon fashionable notice, and a few extreme evening gowns show its charming llnea. Substitute for Fur. v»- A curious and effective substitute for fur Invented by an American de­ signer is a cloth made of angora yarn crocheted into a fabric such as is often used for babies' caps. In soft gray this makes very effective band­ ing. and the model for which It was first designed, a smoky gray Russian costume of heavy, soft silk, with high collar, cuffs, wide coat band and sev­ eral narrower skirt bands, ts exceed­ ingly good looking and original.

It seems that all the gypsum used in the construction of the San Diego fair buildings and 80 per cent of that used for the San Francisco fair came from the quarries near Nephi. Utah. It la now well known that gypsum is one of the oldest building materials. It was used extensively in the building of the pyramids and very largely in the construction of the monumental archi tectural edittces reared by the Greeks and the Romans. The product of gypsum used in the fair buildings is known aa "staff" and was cast to imitate the famous Koman travertine. Of its beauty a thousand writers have written.

We were convinced that coffee caused his suf­ fering. so he returned to Postum, con­ vinced that coffee was an enemy, in­ stead of a friend, and he is troubled no more by insomnia. "I have gained 8 pounds In weight, and my nerves have ceased to quivi r. It seems so easy now to quit coffee that caused our aches and ails and take up Postum." Name gives by Postum Co..
