was attracted by two well-dressed

The very latest novelty in coats
worn to-day by the fashionable wom
an who follows the mode to the slight
est variation Is the minaret coat. It’s
t\ie newest thing from Paris, where
the popularity of an Oriental play
made the minaret gown.
The effect when It is worn with a
minaret gown is especially pleasing.
The minaret part the lamp shade
part, to quote a mere man who had
to pay a bill incurred by his \\ ife for
one pf the new coats—is more flaring
in the coat than in the gown.
This attribute of the latest outer
garment for women is especially
pleasing to folk of artistic tempera
ment For instance, niadame enters
a room in one of the new minaret
coats. The flare is wide and large.
Then she removes the outer coat, ana
appears in a smaller minaret—that
is to say. a gown. The very effect of
changing from a large minaret to a
small is very striking Then, too,
the gown is often indeed, generally,
of different shade and coloring. Thus
a woman by a mere taking off of her
wrap gets all the advantages that
come to a stage production when the
scene is changed In very truth,
niadame alters the setting of her
beauty, though keeping the same
general, harmonious and artistic
unity.
The coat shown in the picture is
mftde of seal and is trimmed with
a dyed fur of lesser value.

By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK. Dec. 3.—The railroad
group took the leadership in an upturn
at the opening of the stock market to
day. The tone was also helped by views
of traders who held that President Wil
son's message as a "bullish document.”
The basis of this view' was that this
country would not become involved over
Mexico In any sort of complications,
which might cause "hard times."
Reports that dividend action may be
taken soon by the directors of the New
York, New Haven and Hartford caused
that stock to advance 1 point. Other
advances among the railroad issues
were: Reading. % ; Canadian Pacific. %,
Union Pacific, %; Erie. %; Pennsylvania
%. and Lehigh Valley. %.
Amalgamated Copper advanced % and
similar gains were recorded by United
States Steel common and Chino Copper
Southern Pacific declined 1 point. Buy
ing of Erie was based on rumors that
other interests will enter control of the
line.
The curb was steady.

GRAIN
CHICAGO, Dec. 3.—There were frac
tional recessions in the grain market at
the 1 opening to-day. Besides the de
clines in values in foreign countries, the
weather in America was better and a
larger movement of gram is looked for in
consequence. Northwestern receipts
were smaller. Wheat was down % to
%c.
Corn was % lower and oats were un
changed to % lower
Provisions were easier
GRAIN NOTES.
The Chicago Inter Ocean says "Sen
timent was mainly bullish on wheat last
night and the market had many friends,
who are disposed to buy on breaks, blit
they do not look for a big advance in
the near future.
“Com traders attribute the strength
in their market to the aggressiveness
of the local crowd, who oversell on weak
spots and run in on every showing of
strength. It is not expected that there
will be a large movement, while the
weather continues had and the bulls
think they have the best of it."
