NOBLEWOMEN IN
SHARP PEN OOEL
Lady Paget. American Girl, and
Countess of Aberdeen Clash
Over Turkey Trot Episode.
DUBLIN. Sept. 20. —The Countess of
Aberdeen and Lady Arthur Paget have
had a duel with sharp-pointed Jtens
But the daughter of Dudley CouttS. the
banker, first Lord Tweedmeuth, and the
daughter of the late Paran Stevens, of
New York, met with the exquisite po
liteness of the old duelists.
Lady Paget was Minnie Stevens, of
New York. While Lady Paget con
tributes most liberally to charities she
never has devoted much of her time to
them. She is as popular in’ society In
Dublin, Paris and London as in New
York.
There had been no love lost between
the fair combatants. The Countess of
Aberdeen wrote Lady Paget not long
ago asking her to take an active part in
that fine charity, the Woman's Na
tional Health association.
Turkey Trot Causes Trouble.
Lady Paget replied with a subscrip
tion, but regretted deeply that her
lameness caused by an accident 1n an
elevator would prevent her taking any
further part in the work. Lady Aber
deen had another pet scheme, the
“Rankers club,” and she tried hard but
vainly to interest Lady Paget in that
also. «
Lady Paget gave a ball tn the com
modious rooms of the Royal "hospital
here during horse show week recently,
and there was some joyous, but grace
ful. dancing. Then Lord and I.ady
Aberdeen gave a ball at the Viceregal
Lodge, which is always a very solemn
function, indeed, for, since the viceroy
directly represents the king, a ball at
the Viceregal lx>dge is equivalent to a
court function at Buckingham palace.
But its solemnity was shattered by
some misguided guest who insisted <,:«
dancing a modified turkey trot. Fur
ther, these persons violated all Vice
regal etiquette by applauding and de
manding encores of the popular num
bers.
Rumor had ft that soma American
friends of Lady Paget who had been
her house guests during the horse show
week were those who had danced
strange dances and noisily demanded
more of them.
Certain It Wasn’t Americans.
It reached the ears of Irfidy Paget
The whisper fired her American blood
and she wrote to Lady Aberdeen an
extremely pointed and extremely polite
letter. She assured the Vicereine that
It was simply impossible that any
American—more than impossible that
one of her friends—should have vio
lated etiquette: should have indulged
In even a modified turkey trot or ap
plauded as if he or she were In a music
hall.
And the apology, the amende honor
able. came quickly. Ijidy Aberdeen
sent a reply to Lady Paget which any
body but Lady Paget would cal) '■gra
cious.*'
"1 never gave any credence to ru
mor,” wrote Lady Aberdeen. “My ex
perience has been that, in matters of
etiquette, Americans spare no pains to
acquaint themselves with the correct
procedure of what 1, for one, have al
ways strongly deprecated—has contrib
uted to the sad deterioration,of man
ners among some of our younger folk."

RIOTING MARKS CAR
STRIKE IN SUPERIOR;
MAY ASK FOR TROOPS
SUPERIOR, WTB., Sept. 20—Follow
ing rioting last night by 10,000 persons
in which street cars were demolished
and police and strike-breakers Injured,
city and county officials today are con
ferring and a request for troops is ex
pected. The riot grew out of the local
street car strike.
The rioting followed a parade by the
strikers. As the parade reached the
downtown section a street car manned
by strike-breakers came Into view. A
volley of stones broke every window in
the car. The motorman and conductor
regained at. ’..heir posts for a few mo
ments, then sought refuge under the
seats.
The police automobile was hurried to
the scene. Stones were hurled at it.
The wind shield was broken and the
occupants of the car bruised.
When the auto withdrew the cat was
demolished. Rioting continued until
after midnight. Other cars were de
molished, tracks were torn up at sev
eral points, and an unsuccessful as
sault was made on the car bams.
PISTOL DROPS FROM
POCKET OF A JUROR;
REPORT STIRS COURT
HAZLEHURST, GA. Sept. 20.-A
short time after a traverse jury retired
to the jury room here today to reach
a verdict in a case a loud report came
from the room.
Superior Court Judge c. R. Conyers
directed a bailiff to make an investiga
tion. The bailiff entered the room and
found that a. pistol had dropped from
the pocket of one of the jurors and
was discharged, not striking any one or
doing any other damage further than
giving the twelve jurors a genuine
fright. He returned to the court room
still “searching” for the origin of the
sharp report, and it is doubtful if the
judge has learned the facts yet.

The Ribbons
That You Young Folk and the Grown=Ups
Will Want This Season
The ribbon department, is a live, active
part of the store —to those in charge it is just as
important as if the reputation of the whole store
were to stand or fall by their efforts.
And this season its importance is augmented
by the prevailing fashions. More ribbons will be
used, rich girdles and sashes for the grown-ups,
these in brocaded satins and shimmering messa
lines and beautiful moires. They are all here
abreast of the times, perhaps pointing the way of
the styles that will develop as the season loses
its youth.
But aside from having the ribbons that you
wan, there are saleswomen skilled in tying the bows
and in making the sashes that are now the vogue.
I his service is yours and at no extra cost.
Here are some of the ribbons of more value
and beauty than price.
Taffeta and Moire Ribbons at 21c— Compare them,
please, with the usual 25c grades. These are five inches wide
and may be had in black, white and colors.
Moire and Messaline Ribbons at 25c— Five and six
inches wide in pink, light blue, navy, red, brown, Nile, laven
der and black and white; splendid for hair bows and rosettes.
Moire Ribbons at 39c— The good, heavy quality most
suitable for children’s school wear and for hat trimmings.
The New Brocade Ribbons— Beautifully, richly pat
terned, in light shades—pink, blue, light green and white. The
sash width is 49c a yard. The hair bow, 29c. Other brocade
ribbons, those that came from France, that show the most gor
geous and wonderful patterns, are priced in the sash widths at
75c. 85c and SI.OO, and in the hair bow width at 45c and 65c a
yard.

Bring Your Hands to the Glove Counter
The New Kid Gloves Are Ready
In the Variety and Abundance That Mean
Glove-Satisfaction to the Women of Atlanta!
Glove-satisfaction for all the women of Atlanta!
Do you realize what that really means? How
hands differ, not to mention how gloves differ and
which are the worthy ones?
We do—and we have made every preparation
to fit every size and shape of hand that you can
bring to us with gloves that are best.
We might write long and earnestly kid
gloves—and about real kid-skin and how it differs
from what is too generally known as kid-skin; about
the deceptions that are practiced in the name of real
kid, and the upshot of it all would be that the aver
age woman must depend largely upon the honesty
and integrity of the store.
The kid glove business is much a matter of trust.
Perhaps that is one reason why we are superscrupu
lous in our attitude towards our customers and so
very careful and exacting in our attitude toward the
.makers. <
•"•“e/.*.- . i .. » i. . . ... . • . . . » • •• u’ - i j hj . f
That is why there is not an iota of difference
here between a true statement and 3 “commercially"
true statement of glove facts; that is why you can
-not buy here a lamb-skin as a kid-skin glove. ■ Also,
that is why you are sure of full value---of gloves that
outwear their prices.
However,we urge that you let our saleswomen fit
your gloves. They are experienced and capable.
And the first fitting of a glove has much to do with
its wear and looks.
Here are the gloves that we know:
At SI.OO The Solitaire, the best SI.OO glove. It is of
soft lamb-skin and outwears the so-called real
kid $1 gloves. It has Paris-point stitching and
may be had in black, white and all colors.
At SSI 2 S The Colbert, a heavy and soft cape-skin glove,
■ * in black, tan, grey, black and white. I
At SSI SO rhe Navarre, a two-clasp kid glove, in black,
2VL white and colors.
At SSI SO P re adnaught, a very smart P K. seam
glove, in black, white, tan, grey and buff, with
white or self stitching. Pearl clasps.
At $2.00 Lrefousse kid gloves, than which there is none
better, in black, white and colors. Also at this
price are the 1 refousse P. K. seam gloves, in
black, white, tan, grey and buff, with white or
self stitching.
At SS'S OO Tn r fousse twelve-button kid gloves, black, |
Ml white, tan and buff. Also the Trefousse six- f
teen-button black and white suede gloves. |
At SSS SO r refousse sixteen-button kid gloves, in all $
street and evening shades. Also the heavy and
cape-skin gloves with spear-point stitching, in
tan; sixteen-button length.
At S 4 rif) Trefousse twenty-button glace kid gloves, in
black, white, buff, light blue and rose.
