ONLY SIX GOWNS.
Serious Airship Trouble for Lady Wilkins. 30LB OF LUGGAGE ALLOWED. (Received 1.30 p.m.) LONDON, May 3. Lady Wilkins, wife of the worldfamous Australian explorer, Sir Hubert Wilkins, being limited to 301b of luggage when she goes to America on the German airship Hindenburg, had to choose her wardrobe most carefully, taking six evening gowns of pleated chiffon in the Grecian style, which roll up like a ribbon.
Sir Hubert and his wife will return to London from America in June to enable Sir Hubert to be present while a submarine is being built for his contemplated Antarctic trip.
