Heart of Chicago.
The question. is often asked by those
who have never seen Lincoln J. Car-
ter’s new play “The Heart of Ch1cago” l
but who have heard of the approaching j
engine scene, “Is it accomplished by
the use of the new animated picture ‘
a machines, such as the Vitascope,'Cine- ‘
matograph, etc,'?” It is not. The
engine and other apparatus is as real
as stage limitations, iron, wood and
steel can make it. As to how it is
made to appear to come frog miles
away, all the time being Sin plain View,
as Rudyard Kipling would say “That’s
another story.” It- is the inventor’s
secret. Will be seen at Hoyt’s Monday

GOWN WITH POINTED FLOUNCE FROM HARPBR'S BAZAR
Gown With Pointed Flounce.
The circular flounced skirts of French
gowns promise to be very popular,
since they are sheathlike at the top,
with a lower circular flare, which gives
a pretty fan effect without much-full:
ness to impede in walking. These
flounces rise gracefully toward the
back, where they sweep outward from a
tiny cluster of gathers below the waist-
band. '
The simpler forms 'of these skirt
models are used for crash, pique, and
other heavy cotton materials, as well
as fOr silks and wools, while more elab-
orate costumes are composed of several
wide flounces, or‘ of a succession of nar-
row ones, or, again. of a series gradua—
ted in- width, often reaching to the
waiSt. ' p ' l -
A Paris fOulard gown of dainty sim-
plicity, with polka-dots of black on' a
background of the new tone of silver
blue, is attractive. The polka-dot re-
turns this year‘ as a noyelty and in
most fascinating combinations of color,
the black appearing in a profusion of
effects, apparently in accordance with
what Paris calls a ‘fblack seasOn.”
The flounces of this skirt are especial-
-ly graceful, rippling in airy curves
from the pointed apron in front ‘to ,a‘
slight Watteau' effect behind, which is
framed by the broad velvet ribbon
sash.
Circular flounces are not difficult to
make by amateur dress-makers, al-
though they require some care and pa-
tience. If the corresponding divisions
of ruffle and skirt are pinned exactly
in place, before basting, as indicated
in the pattern-of this gown furnished
by Harper’s Bazar, there is little dan-
gerof stretching the edge of the ruffle
in putting together.
In this model the iiounoes are at-

tached to a seven gored foundation
skirt, which may serve besides for-a
plain ,foulard, cotton, or wool skirt, as
well as for a drop skirt. This seven,
gored model is one of the meet popular
for general use. It follows the average
width at the present moment——three
and three*quarter yards at the foot, the
bottom flounce having sufficient extra
width to flare easily.
. The bodice of this gown is very-be-
comingly designed, with tucks at the
- neck, and shoulder caps QUh‘lH one
The addition of anarrow cirn
with it.
cular ruflle to these caps furnishes a
graceful top to the plain tight sleeves
which fashion now demands. A little
rippled frill trims the sleeve 'at. the
hand. Skirt, cox-Sage, and sleeve are.
boardered with \rows of , the new ser-'
2' pentine black velvet ribbon—a Paris
novelty of the season. A wide draped
collar of black velvet, always so en-
h‘ancingito the complexion, completes
the bodice. Quantity of material-—
foulard for entire costume, eighteen
yards, silkor Satin for waist-lining and
drop skirt, fourteen yards; velvet rib-
bon, two pieces. ‘
