'xtraordinary Display of Semi-Reddy Robes
Including Lace Robes, Embroidered Robes, Lingerie
Robes, Linen Robes, Point D’Esprit Robes
The semi-ready robes, so much shown by the leading quality stores the
country over this spring, have made a decided hit everywhere. • They save all
the worry of planning and more than half the trouble of making. There are
I few stores in the South that have a more satisfactory display of these ready jto-
make garments than we are now offering the ladies of Albany. As each design
is different there is infinite variety and that exclusiveness which is essential in
i a costume of this kind is assured.
We have selected this line with greatest care and have secured robes of
■, superior pattern, finish and beauty. We do not believe, that you could find any-
; where a line from which a satisfactory selection would be a matter of so little trouble.
Lace and Point D’Esprit Robes. A splendid
assortment. Suitable for evening and dinner dresses.
By liiaking over different colored linings in the fall'may
be made to do pouble duty. These robes are semi-ready
and all the patterns are pretty and exclusive. Shown
in white and cream. The Point D’Esprit robes are
trimmed elaborately with ruchings, Val. lace and medal
lions, These robes are priced with characteristic rea
sonableness.
Spangle Robes. Semi-ready spangle robes are •

robe of the correct dresser is not complete if a spangle
robe is not included, and here’s a rare opportunity to
select a spangle costume that will be the acme of ele
gance and style. Fi>r dinners, receptions, theatres and
all dressy occasions a spangle robe is appropriate.
These robes have a beauty and attractiveness that make
them extremely becoming to most women. The prices
are much lower than the qualities would suggest.
Printed Net Robes in Dolly Varden designs are
something entirely new and decidedly beautiful this sea-
ion. Shown in old rose and heliotrope, beautifully
trimmed with ruchings.
AGENTS BUTTERICK PATTERNS.
Wash Blond Robes. Another of this season’s
popular creations in ready-to-make dresses. The line
includes robes of white, pink and blue, trimmed with
ruchings and lace. We also show some beautiful black
figured net robes, with elaborate trimmings of ruchings
aftd taffeta discs in effective designs.
Embroidered Robes. Extremely popular this
season and, therefore, holding a prominent place in this
display, are the exquisite embroideried robes. The large
line includes robes of eyelet, Swiss and blind embroid
ered patterns, and is especially strong on linen robes,
of which a great number of elegant and exclusive de
signs are offered. All are priced in the usual H., J. &
Co. way.
Lingerie Robes. Lingerie effects are vastly more
popular than ever this season, and it must have been
just such effects as we are now showing that won so
. many devotees to this style. Certainly, these robes of
soft clinging material, trimmed with round thread lace,
medallions, and the new puffins, are about as beautiful
as you could imagine. ,A11 the patterns that are shown
are new and excluive, beautiful and strikingly ef
fective.

Spe-.ial to The Herald.
Atlanta, Ga„ April 2.—Angered at
the sight of trolley cars, Charles
Chambers, a white man, who resides
In the rear of the Exposition Cotton
Mills, startod out Saturday night to
annihilate the rolling stock of the
Georgia Railway and Electric Com

ing some bricks, he built up a pile of
ammunition In the middle of the street
car tracks on Marietta street, near
Jones avenue. When the first trolley
arrived after the arrangements had
been innde, Chambers let fly. The In
itial brick struck the electric head
light nud demolished It. The next
narrowly missed the motorman' and
crashed through a window into the
car. Other bricks followed fast and
furious, and It looked for a time as If
every pane of glass In the car would

Inspector, the conductor and the mo-
torman rushed Chambers, overpowered
him, and turned the struggling man
over to a policeman. He was given a

Promises that Senator Depew would

the reason that hopes of his family for
a complete restoration of his health
have been disappointed. He is still in
retirement on the Elliot P. Shepard

left Washington.
In the “ villa,” as the house Is
known, extreme measures have been
taken to check the rapid decline Into
which It has seemed for several
months he has been falling. Every
■pleasant day lately he has been taken
for a ride in an automobile, and sev

the neighborhood as companions.
Except for caretakers, Senator De
pew is practically alone on the 200-
acre estate.

BLOODLETTING.
t Still Resorted to by Doctors In
Certain EiuersrencieM.
Bloodletting, oi* “venesection," ae It
Is known scientifically, was once the
common rbmedy for nearly every form
of ailment. Washington died of it. In
the opinion of modern medical authori
ties, and soon after his time there was
a reaction against veueseciion. Better
medicinal agents accomplished what
ever benefits were'attributed to this he
roic treatment, and a better knowledge
of physiology condemned the practice.
Venesection, however, Is still em
ployed in certain emergencies by the
most advanced practitioners. A Ger
man physician has made an exteiislve
study of the, subject, with clinical ex
periments, and reaches the conclusion
that iu certain cases where the heart
and lungs are engorged with blood
venesection Is permissible because of
the speedy relief it gives, ofteu after
other resources have failed.
Deadly toxins are also present In the
blood In some diseases,) and venesection,
deduces them’. ;Tbe lost fluid is replaced
with an injection of salt solution.
Bloodletting affords relief to the livid
sufferer from' a distended heart when
every breath is-a struggle, but its use
has been reduced to an exact science,
and it Is regarded In medicine as a
final resort for giving ease in a com
paratively restricted group of ailments.

HAD ROUGH TIME.
Sequal to the Airing of an Interesting
Case In Police Court.
Special to The Herald.
Atlanta, Ga„ April 2,-As a result
of the hearing In police court Satur
day afternoon of the charge against
Fannie May Parker, the pretty 14-year-
old girl who mysteriously disappeared
from her home more than a week ago,
and who was found by a detective, a
bloody fight took place at the home
o/ the girl, SO Connally street, between
H. Stovall Simpson, of 123 Crew street,
brother-in-law of the girl, and John A.
Parker, of 80 Connally street, the girl’s
brother. Simpson struck Parker In
the head with a brick, seriously In
juring him. Simpson said he acted in
self-defense. He said Parker was
making at him with a knife. Simpson
went to police barracks and gave him
self up. He and Parker will be given
hearing in police court this after
noon. The fight came about as a re
sult of a statement by Simpson in po
lice court during the trial of Fannie
May Parker. Her brother declared he
did not want the girl placed In a re
form school. Simpson told the re
corder to pay no attention to Parker,
as he was drunk. This angered Par
ker, and when the two met later at
the home of the girl, the combat start
ed. The girl was ordered sent to the
reform school in Cincinnati.

Keep clean, keep well and dress well.
Cleanliness and health are attractive.
The world Is a great respecter of good
clothes.
The Greene and Gaynor trial at Sa
vannah has entered upon its thirteenth
week.
One now begins to hear a good deal
about the street sprinkling program to
be followed during the coming sum
mer. ^ r .‘
There will, in the natural order of
things, be more traffic on the streets
during the present year than there was
last, and in consequence there will be
greater demand for keeping the dust
laid.
But anyone who is observant knows
that it will be impossible to sprinkle
any greater area of streets with the
one sprinkler which the city now owns
than was sprinkled last year, and if
the service Is to be extended it will
become necessary to purchase another
sprinkler.
This is a subject which has already
been discussed in an informal manner
by the city fathers, and the suggestion
has been made that it will perhaps be
possible to arrange to utilize an extra
pair of mules which it Is proposed to
buy for use of the street department,
for the double purpose of drawing
scavenger carts and operating an ex
tra street sprinkler at certain hours
of the day.
At any rate, it is not doubted that
If they can see their way clear to dp
it, the city fathers will make provis
ion during the summer for sprinkling
the streets in a manner satisfactory
to all who are interested.
