East BuilclliiR. great Summer Grand Prix "is run, winding up at last at Dieppe. Then the world of fashion returns to don its first Fall gowns at the Autumn meeting at Longchamps. Day after day our people viewed all that the greatest European couturiers had produced for the gowning of the best dressed women of the world during this series of occasions when money is lavishly spent to make each woman a picture of surprising brilliance each day that she appears. Nowhere else in the world are so many lavishly dressed women to be seen by the public eye as during these brilliant days of the circuit races of the Jockey Club of France.

"Here go the famous Paris couturiers to see what other masters of dress have produced, and to watch the trend of fashion: to catch inspiration for future effort. Side by side with them were the representatives of the house of Wanamaker. seeing all that the world had done, to be ready to plan and select with fullest knowledge among the new things that Paris was to show in the coining weeks. But Paris was slow. "Weeks passed, and little that was new was to be seen.

American buyers one by one drifted away home, accepting what they could find rinding little that wtts new. Only W'anmnaker's could afford to wait. Fashions are never fixed until the Wanamaker Exhibition is made; and no haste should disappoint our American public, who look to Wanamaker's for the world's best when the occasion is announced. September loomed up just ahead; with our expert still waiting. When, lo, the garden of fashion burst suddenly into bloom the richest and most beautiful that even we had ever seen.

True, there were many proud names delinquent many that gave lustre to our previous showings who must be passed by this year self confessed as lacking in their usual inspiration; but doubtless to bloom again later on, as before.

The board of governors of the Seward Republican Club did not carry out its intention last night to have High Private E. J. Ehrenberg expelled from the club. Just as the secretary finished reading the report favoring the expulsion of Mr. Ehrenberg, the high private sprung an injunction on the club.

His enemies were startled and one or two of them were openly wrathy, but this only increased the measure of the high private's joy. He sat on a front seat and the happiest looking member present. The injunction which restrains the club from Hxpclliug Air. Ehrenberg was granted yesterday afternoon, by Judge William D. Dickey of the Supreme Court.

It is returnable next Tuesday morning, at 10:30 o'clock. The injunction was granted upon affidavits of the high private and President Samuel H. Cragg of the club. president Cragg is the sole member of the board of governors talcing the side of Mr. Ehrenberg.

His affidavit, alleging an unfair trial and prejudice against the high private, created a sensation and caused Edward H. M. Roehr, counsel of the board of governors, to break forth. Mr. Roehr said that the sworn allegations of President Cragg were unmitigated falsehoods.

Mr. Roehr is one of the members of the club, active in the "railroading" of Mr. Ehrenberg via the "lightning express," according to the high private's friends. Lawyer Louis Ehrenberg. son of the member accused of having grossly insulted Staie Quarantine Commissioner Frederick M.

Schroeder. secured the injunction and served it upon President Cragg at last night's meeting. The board of governors hail just made its report recommending Mr. Ehrenberg's dismissal. President Cragg had in his pocket a minority report, but he did not read it.

as all proceedings were off as soon as the injunction was filed. Mr. Ehrenbers': allegations show that he is a member of the club in good standing and is about to be illegally expelled. He alleges a prejudice cxi. ts against him and that he was given an unfair trial after the board of governors had held an ex parte investigation and decided that he should be expelled.

President Grass's affidavit is much more important than Mr. Ehrenberg's, since it was Mr. Crags who presided over the meetings of the board of governors at which it was decided to expel Mr. Ehrenberg. Mr.

Cragg alleges that there was an ex parte hearing of Mr. Sehroeder's charges September at which the board, after consulting with Mr. Schroeder, decided that Mr. Ehrenberg should be expelled. Deponent believes that the members of the board are prejudiced and biased against the accused member.

The trial of Ehrenberg on the 22d of September bv the board of. governors is characterized hv President Cragg as farcical and as manifestly unjust and unfair. The allegation that riled Lawyer Roehr was as follows: "That the accused was denied the right of cross examination, that one Edward H. M. Roehr, one of the directors, acted Cotton Shirt Waists For Cold Weather Wear.

One of the allegations that may have weight in court, is that Ehrenberg was tried pursuant to the bylaws adopted for temporary use on September 3.

The closing alteration of Mr. Cragg is that at a meeting of the board Monday night. Edward H.

M. Roehr and the other members of the board asked Mr. Schroeder what his wishes were in regard to the disposition of the charges, saying that they were eager to do what he wished. Presiden Cragg's minority report is just as riling to the friends of Schroeder. who are about as numerous as the membership qf the club, as is his affidavit.

His report concludes with this sentence: "If it ho ihe intention of this club punish this defendant, for his idosyncrasies let it not use this charge as a subterfuge."

"Wilbur Lawrence tells this story: "1 suppose I may as well tell the whole truth about this affair. I was 'one of the highwaymen, and Ames Chamberlain and Lewis A. Campbell were the ether two. Campbell, because of his experience in the Philippines as a soldier for Uncle Sam, was chosen leader. "At 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon Clinton W.

Wisner telephoned from Goshen that as the Pioneer coach was about to leave on its last trip to Warwick for the season, a hold up with all the Dcadwood trimmings would be in order. "Accordingly, Campbell, Chamberlain and I dressed up in corduroy trousers, flannel shirts and black masks, armed ourselves with seven revolvers of large caliber and a Filipino bolo and mounted our horses.

Co RECEPTION FOR DR. EDWARDS. STORE NOTES. The members of the Richard Wagner Maennerchor have lost their president, J. H.

Ranch having tendered his resignation at a meeting held last night. at Bossong's Hall. Some months ago, when Dennis Winter, the former president, was askod to resign, J. H. Rauch was elected president.

He had served before and the members were congratulating themselves on having won Mr. Rauch again. Mr. Rauch, however, felt slighted, it is alleged, when in arranging the concert to be given at Palm Garden, November 2. the majority of the members voted in favor of giving to another member of the society the contract for the orchestra music, despite the fact that the president's son had asked the same'prlce.

Henry Christmas, vice president, will take charre of the president's duties and Franz Bossong. treasurer, will officiate as trustee. A successor will be elected at the general meeting liext January. Ad. Bomhandt, president of the Will iamsburgh Saengerbund and extraordinary member of the Wagnerians, was asked last uight to preside at the regular meeting.

The resignation of Mr. Rauch was accepted, and a decision in regard to joining the Slgel monument movement was postponed until after the concert or musical and dramatic entertainment that will be given November 2 by Plans P. Renard. musical director, and G. Emmet, Alfred Semm, John Huclt and Joseph Heilig.

Deep flounces of Irish lace over plaited chiffon trim a coat of chinchilla; the shawl collar is also edged with conceptions always kern in check by a refined art. The collection of costumes contributed by Drecoll of Vienna, the Austrian court dressmaker, is among the most notable. Two gowns which immediately attract the attention are in Empire style.

The first is an exact reproduction of the gown worn by Queen Louise in the famous painting representing her descending a broad staircase. The fabric is a white taffeta, strewn with bunches of grapes in pale blue velvet; bordering the skirt is a narrow band of blue velvet embroidered in turquoises, pearls and steel beads; corresponding with this is an Empire bust girdle edged with a fringe of pearls; the long transparent sleeves are of tulle, shirred at the shoulder and wrist and falling very full at the elbow; from between the shoulders at. the back falls a long tulle scarf spangled in gold. Fair Empress Josephine is represented by a costume copied from one once worn by her. It is of white chiffon elaborately embroidered in gold, pearls and nllt green silk arranged in floral and medallion effect; the full sleeves are of tulle, caught at the elbow with a large embroidered medallion; a brilliant touch of color is given by a large bunch of pink and yellow roses and foliage at the left side of the corsage.

A belle of 1S30 seems to come to life in a gown (also by Drecoll) of silver gray Loulsine silk. A deep bertha of cream lace is embroidered lightly in gold, and the same touch of gold is repeated in the belt; the entire trimming consists of intermingled festoons of grey eilk cord and ruching, finished with tassels. The brawn and green of nature mingle harmoniously in a dinner gown of tucked chiffon, inset with lace and made over apple green taffeta; vqry full elbow sleeves are in double flounce effect; the yoke is heavilv embroidered in gold beads and a broad "girdle and bottom flounce are embroidered in gold thread. This gown is a design of Drecoll. White cloth, both for gowns and coats, is a dominant note in the fashions of' tie season and Francis emphasizes this in an exquisite collection of costumes and wraps.

Exceedingly beautiful is a long evening cloak of white cloth, strewn all over with leaves and grapes of white panne velvet; the flowing sleeves are very full and the collar and fronts are faced with the lace and there are deep cuffs of white silk and lace. The Millinery Display. In millinery no less than in costumes there is a brilliant display. Conspicuous among the many handsome models are those composed of ermine fur. A box turban of this beautiful fur has for its only garniture two large jet cabochons at the back.

Madame Core contributes a turban with sealskin crown and brim of eiderdown; a cluster of tails falling at the back. A modish collar matches this hat. A set composed of hat. pelerine and muff, is of sable, pleated white chiffon and knots of brown velvet, artis tic allv combined. The muff is huge and finished with deep frills of chiffon.

From Virot comes a light blue beaver cloth turban edged with rosettes of knotted blue ribbon and decorated at the side with three pompons ol light blue coque feathers. Soft shades of green are the motif of a hat bearing the name of Carlier. It is of sage green taffeta braid; medallions of lace adorn the brim and an applique of pink and green the crown; a large bunch of grapes and foliage in shades of green trims the side. A varied and exceedingly attractive collection of black hats calls for special mention. Many of these arc of lace and chiffon trimmed with ropes of jet heads: in some the entire brim Is composed of jet beads.

Louis strikes a picturesque note in a large hat of black lace, the brim finished with a band of black velvet; for sole trimming is a black Chantilly scarf caught in a large bow. terminating in long ends and fastened on the crown with two large jet ornaments.

esteemed pastor ot the historic Franklin Avenue Presbyterian this City, was tendered a social fareweiyby the members the church and congregation on Tuesday evening. The pastoral relation was dissolved by the Presbytery at its regular meeting on September 22. The large company which gathered in the lecture room of the church included many, former members, with some personal friends of the pastor, among whom were the Rev. Jay N. Taft Ph.D., and Mrs.

Taft, whose presence was enjoyed by all. The meeting was called to order by P. A. Vincent of the Western National Bank, present treasurer of the church and member of the board of trustees. Mr.

Vincent won frequent applause by his open, ing address, in the course of which he warmly eulogized the retiring minister, both as preacher and pastor, declaring that the pastor's resignation had caused the people universal regret. At the conclusion of his remarks he presented, on behalf of the church, a set of resolutions, handsomely engrossed and signed by the officers of the church. The resolutions contained, among other sentiments, these words: "We, the officers and congregation of the Franklin Avenue Presbyterian Church, having learned with regret of his proposed removal from us, unanimously desire to place on record this testimonial of our appreciation of his unselfish devotion and self denying ministry, which has so endeared him to all our hearts. We sincerely pray that God's richest blessing may follow him to his new sphere of labor and that very many years of successful work for the Master may be his." At this poin the sliding doors between the lecture room and the primary class room were thrown back, revealing a large and costly sectional bookcase, made of golden oak, with eleven dust proof compartments. This was accompanied by a purse of money, which, with the bookcase, was presented to the pastor by Miss Wright, on behalf of the members of the church, and who, in a few choice words, spoke of every one's affection for the pastor and their earnest lshes for his future health and happiness.

Before resuming her seat she also presented to the pastor and Mrs. Edwards a valuable china ice cream set, as the gift of friends in the neighborhood, not members of the church. To each of these presentations Dr. Edwards made a suitable and feeling response, stating that he would ever highly prize the sentiments of his people as expressed in the resolutions and What a great exhibition is to art lovers an opening at Wanamakcr's.

That these may be as exquisitely wrought through the medium of shimmering silks and rich velvets, soft gauze and lace and gleaming jewels as with the paints was never more strikingly exemplified than in the present exhibition of costumes and millinery by foreign and home designers. Each model is a picture in itself a study before which rapturous groups of women stand transfixed. Ono of the newest designs of this famous artist tailor is a Prince Albert costume. It Is of white zibeline, having a long, tightl fitliug coat, the trimming of which consists of rows of stitching in white and gold braid; a satin bev; at the terminates in huge tassels.

A group of gowns from Doeuilict shows that this artist has also sought his inspiration in Nature. Many of the cos times carry out the idea of some one ilcwer, as a dainty forf et me rot frock of light blue c'litlon. with trimming composed entirely of sprays of forget me nots a pastel link, adorned with garlands pink roses, and a dainty white chtfton studded marguerites. Most striking of this flower collection is an ivy leaf dress of white chiffon with all over applique of black velvet and jet ivy leaves. Among the exquisite creations which' show the ingenuity of Beer, are two gowns, one of pale pink and the other a delicate blue, their filmy white draperies forming a pretty contrast.

One of the famous old court beauties might well have graced this gown by Beer of blue and white brocade moircd with silver; on the skirt bottom is traced a gracor ful pattern in tiny blue and white chiffon ruching; from a silver girdle falls a scarf of blue chiffon and the low cut. bodice of lace and brocade is richly embroidered in silver; the long full sleeves are of blue chUTon.

Dr. Edwards leaves his church to take up literary and educational work. ABRAHAM'S TOMB TO DAY. Ibrahim Pasha, the conqueror of Palestine and the dictator of Egypt, endeavored' to approach the cenotaph of Isaac seventy five or eighty years ago he was smitten 'with paralysis.
