THE “WOLVES” YESTERDAY Manager Brouthers of the Local Sallie Team Well Satis fied With Practice Received in Game. Yesterday's baseball game between the local Sallie team and the champions of the City League of last year, turned out to be quite interesting to the fans as well as to the players. The “Wolves were defeated by the score of nine to two. This game was not without its sen sations babrie. the Augusta team's first baseman, caused great comment when he sensationally averted being trapped while attempting to come in home. The only bad part of the game was when Broughton was accidentally hit in the back of the head with the sphere and rendered helpless for a few minutes. The batteries for the “Woilves” were as follows: Rainey, Kahrs and Muller as the pitchers, and Wolf as the backstop For the Augusta club Bruner and Stor.e In the pitching box and Fuesse and Wheat behind the bat. Manager Brouthers was fairly well sttisfied with the practice* gained from the "Wolves" in yesterday's game and stated that he is now ready to go after the scalp of Manager Hamilton's Com ers (Columbia), who will play Augusta three straight games, starting Monday snd ending Wednesday.

THE CASE OF JENNIE BRICE By MARY ROBERTS RINEHART THE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA. GA. And Still the Mystery Grows Deeper ATTRACTIVE TAFFETAS - AND AGAIN TAFFETAS Skirts Continue Narrow at tho Heels Despite Pleats and Ac centuated Drapery. Season able Material for Little Folks. New York.— Seasons are no longer divided; now winter merges Into spring and spring Into summer before we realize that the change lias taken place. We hasten to catch up, won dering how it is possible we could have been caught napping when the stores are showing such a various array are showing such a various array of week. The shops, realizing the insistent demand for taffeta, hate availed them selves of llie opportunity of supplying it in all Its phases, widths and quali ties. The demand has hern so great that even America has forced Ihe rec ognition of France tty the fine quality of the American taffeta, and many of the leuding French couturiers have bought large quantities from our man ufacturers, creating an entirely new stale of affairs. ITp to a very recent time the French and Italian mills have excelled us by far. Moire taffeta Is even more attractive than flic plain-fabric, lor it lias an ad ditional sheen which is alluring. An attractive feature of taffeta frocks is that they really need lint very little trimming. Except for a little lare at Ihe neck, many of the prettiest of tho Parisian frocks depend entirely upon the cut and draping. Among Ihe new fabrics, which in clude cotton duvetyne, novelty eponge and golflne, there i« another material closely allied to the last-mentioned material. It is called golf cord. It has a crepe background, with a chenile cord woven so that It stands up on Hie goods as though it might have been put on after the material has been woven Tho gown which 1 chose for my first illustration is developed in this charming matorlul in Japanese blue. The surplice waist fronts have long ends attached which tie in the hark at a high or low line, according to line most becoming. A dainty frill of organdy finishes tho nock. Tho tunics of the skirt are edged with a narrow hox-plrated frill of plain blue The hat worn with this dresH is made entirely of hlue-and white striped silk. The high-standing how snd roll of the narrow brim are Us particularly smart features Somber-colored frocks arc enlivened by collars anil girdles of some striking hut hurinonlous contrasting silk or rib- A Frock of Japanese Blue Golf Cord With Pleated Frill* of Bilk to Edge the Double Tunic. bon. An example of Ihls method of making a gown attractive Is shown In my other Illustration, which shows a ■mart taupe serge bolero suit. The short coat shows the blouse at the waistline, and at the neck the collar of the waist rolls out upon the collar of purple-and-white checked silk. The cuffs and wide sash girdle are also of this same silk. The charming tri corne which completes Ihls costume is made of purple-and-whtte straw, with black-and-white fancy feathers standing up stiffly at each indentation. A strife goes on between the pleated skirt and the draped skirt. At present the drapery seems to have scored the greatest number of points They are divided into two types; one has I lie wide drapery at the hips, while the other shows the drapery in the back which simulates the bustle. The skirts continue In both cases narrow at the ankles, and the only plain ones are those of the tailored va riety. Bleated skirls are being seen, especially below tunics and panniers. They are so closely knife or accordion pleated Unit they ding tightly and do not chungu the silhouette, but they have the advantage over the other tight skirts in that they yield graceful ly to every step. The waistline Is a feature of great Importance For dresses It Is more often seen normal or high, but on coats It. Is apt to continue low, with broad belts. Each dressmaker of great repu tation strives to establish her own apr ticular Idea. For Instance, l'a<iuln uses a high waistline -and It is a line, never by any chance can It lie called any thing else while Cherult, another French dressmaker of International reuptatlon, hides the waistline under a surplice girdle or a narrow belt of the same material as the gown. Pre met. favors the loose wulst and Call'd the extremely long-waieted moyen-age frocks. With the breath of spring in the air thoughts of mothers are naturally turning toward the >ty garments for the younger gens*, anon. Shops are showing the usual dispay of si ring fabrles, and among them Is golflne, which I have spoken of before. It was created by that greatest of weav ers Rodler, who has given %> the fash ionable world such fabrics as velour de laine, ratine, ami that unusually charming fabric duvetyne, which cap tured Paris and then America by its soft beauty If not by Its serviceability. Golflne will probably lie used a great deal this season for older people, and as a matter of course for children. It resembles cotton corduroy. There are also numerous weaves of liner; which hold a strong place in young people's wardrobes, where serviceability as well as beauty is a consideration. Ma terials are being used which have a THREE daintt flowered design resembling the Dolly Yartlon materials of our mother's day. when ihe same long-shouldered effect was so popular night hero I must not forget to say that at a re cent opening in raids, given by an es tablished dressmaking firm, panta lettes were n feature! ■ (' A- f ■ f f TjH | Taupe Berge with Purple or White Sill Make* a Charming Bolero Suit Hheer linen Is a very dainty matorlnl for the little girl's "best" frock, for parties and dancing school. These are especially pretty trimmed with Irish crochet and hand embroidery. Irish crochet Is also being used for taf feta frocks for the little girl, of pink, white und blue.
