Second Floor. i Luxurious Velvet and Velveteen Dresses and Wraps for Women No other garment fabric approaches velvet and velour in richness, beauty and elegance. Their popularity is perennial. This year promises a greater demand than ever, und the superb garments that have been produced both here and abroad well deserve exceptional favor.

We have purchased lavishly, both at home and abroad. We have hundreds of styles, in velour and plush wraps, hundreds of styles in velvet and velveteen dresses. Not hundreds of one style, made of the smallest quantity and the poorest quality of fabrics, to make a big 6how for a little price. But carefully selected and satisfactory fabrics, each dress carefully copied from a rich imported model, by the best manufacturing tailors in this country each dress representing the very best taste. Most of the wraps are imported all are made in the most refined style.

Prices of the Dresses range from au attractive Eton jacket suit of velveteen, at $36. to an elegant silk velvet costume at $225. Wraps range from 30-inch Double-breasted Coats of velour du nord, lined with peau de cygne, at $22.50, up to the richest imported Velour Wraps at $140. While stocks are comprehensive from one end of the line to the other, we are especially proud of the superb velvet and velveteen suits and coats at the popular prices. Here, most emphatically, is shown the decisive superiority of fabrics, in Wanamaker garments; and every woman well knows how important that is to the beauty and durability of the garment.

Saratoga Springs, October 26 Argument on tbe demurrer to tbe oomplaint in tbe case ot S. of Saratoga Springs, a stockholder and policy bolder ot the Equitable Lite Assurance Society ot the United States, who suns on behalf ot herself and all persons situated similarly with herself against the Equitable Life Assurance Society, and James Hazen Hyde, of New York, Impleaded with' others, will beheld at a special term of Supreme Court, to be held in this village on Saturday, October 28. Tbe action Is brought by Mrs. Young to recover for waste of funds of the society, caused by tbe negligence of the Individual defendants to account for and restore such wasted funds to tbe treasury of the defendant society.

To this complaint Hyde bas demurred, on the ground that: "Tbe complaint does not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action; that the court has no Jurisdiction, because an accounting is demanded which will Interfere with tbe prosecution of the business of the defendant society, and plaintiff Is not a Judgment creditor; nor bas the action been brought by the attorney general, upon bis application or motion, or after bis approval upon a request in writing from the superintendent of insurance; that in so far as the oomplaint undertakes to state a cause of action In favor of the policy bolder of the society, the plaintiff has no legal capacity to sue, because not within the provisions of section E6 ot. the Insurance law, it appears that sha la not a Judgment creditor, and the action not having been brought by the attorney general upon his application or upon his own motion; that the causes of action have been improperly united." In his brief urging that the demurrer be disallowed. Senator Edgar T. Brackett, counsel for Mrs, Young, attacks section 66 ot the insurance law. As to the action he says: 1 "Tbe relief asked in the case is that the ,5,000 Yds.

"Under tbe tacts alleged lh tbe complaint It is a matter of indifference to tbe plaintiff whether the surplus of the defendant society belongs to the stockholders or to tbe policy holders. Sbo sustains both relationships to Halloween Favors A barn dance, under the auspices of the Children of Mary, connected with the Church of tbe Sacred Heart, Adelphi street and Park avenue, was given In the school hall last night. The event was for the benefit of the church and was gotten up by the sisters connected with tbe Sacred Heart, assisted by Miss Anna Carroll. The large hall was dressed fantastically with products of the farm, consisting of beads ot wheat, strings of turnips and other vegetables, on backgrounds of autumn leaves, and a liberal display of tbe national colors. Tbe committee consisted of Misses Anna Carroll, Mary Woods, Susie Bohag, Mary Lamb, Catharine Cahill, Catharine Eccy, LJziie Hincs, Mary Judge, Catharine Uavenagh, Jennie Nelson, Anna Skelly and Jennie McLaughlin.

The members of the committee were dressed In white gowns and gingham aprons and white caps. There were many costumes fresh from the farms of the "North country," some of the swains coming to town with rakes and other Implements of the old homestead. Blue Jeans and flannel shirts were In keeping with the calico gowns of the lasses. Tho event was well patronized. Father Nash, pastor of the Sacred Heart Church, mingled with the young people for a time.

This successful priest is very popular with the young people of his church. Other events similar to that of last night will be enjoyed during the winter. The young people are very sealous in the work of building up tbt affairs of the large parish. KNICKERBOCKERS IN FARCE. rcnnkins.

The Dramatic Corps of the Knickerbocker Field Club of Tennis Court, Flatbusn, presented the three-act farce "Are You. a Mason?" In the auditorium of the clubhouse last night.

The many amusing situations ot tbe play were fully realized, but not overdrawn, and the members of the cast were well repaid for their efforts by tbo evident appreciation of the audience. Tbe principal roles were taken by Madeline Brush and Bessie R. Brown, and Walter Moore, Robert Kellogg and J.
