THE JAPANESE VICTORY.

The Japanese have made short work
OF the Chinese. II the reports are to be
relied upon. The battle at Ping Yang
has been a decisive one and Is said to
have settled the result of the war. The
loss OF the Chinese Is set down as six
teen thousand killed, wounded and
prisoners. Practically, Corea Is in the
hands of the Japanese. But the report
that the war Is virtually over may be
taken with allowance. There are great
many people In China. and the Emperor
is not likely to recognize the fact that
he can be beaten.
The cry in Japan now Is ION to
Pekin," and the Ping Yang victory
will, of course. Increase the advantage
the japanese naturally have over their
adversaries in fighting spirit and con
fidence. But a great many more Celes-
tlals will have to be taught that they
are mortal before the war ends, and 1t is
not likely to end until some of the
great powers step in and bring about a
peace

THE SARATOGA POw-wow.

The Republican Convention which
meets at Saratoga to-day is, for a Re-
publican Convention, a very lively and
spirited affair AS the action Of the
Convention will be known tomorrow. It
Is not worth while making calculations
on the result to-day. But the gene raj
impression seems to be that Platts or
ders. made known several days ago, will
be obeyed. and that the slate he has
written in the back room of the United
States Express offices on Broadway will
be carried out. Everybody seems to
think with Mr. Depew that II would not
be kind TO step In and smash 1t at the
eleventh our.
Yet 1t Is funny to read the opinions Of
the leaders. as expressed to The Word"
Mr.. Platt thinks that Notwithstanding
"the large number OF candidates" the
Convention will make no mistake in Its
nominations"--as II the Convention really
had voice In the matter.
Mr.. Fassett, with his fighting "togs"
on. does not see where Mr.. Morton has
nominating strength" Hamilton Fish
holds his tongue about Governor, but de-
clares that Senator Saxton will be nom
mated for Lieutenant Governor.
Senator saxton is silent on the Morton
Issue. but says he has Cheerful assur-
ances" from several sections Of the State
that he will have the second place on the
ticket.
George w. Aldrlch. OF Monroe, says:
II am quite confident that l shall be
nominated for Leutenant-G Governor"
Meantime. Plat carries his slate safe

BABY CAUSED THESE SUITS.
E. Clarence Haight's Daughter
Was /" Raised" in an Incubator.
The Owner, Lessee and Baby's Papa
at Law Over Its Rental.

Baby Haight came into the world
three months before she was expected,
her frail mother died and her own vital
spark was famed into a living flame by
science, and as result OF Baby's i'm
portunity at the gates of life two law
suits are on the City Court docket.
Baby's devoted father, f. Clarence
Haight the millionaire, Of 2s4 Madison
avenue. has been sued by w. f. Ford,
who procured the incubator in which
Baby was raised" for $3.50, and the w.
f. Ford Surgical Instrument Company
has in turn been sued by the maker and
owner of the machine for 1926.
The baby was born Feb. 26 She
weighed less than two pounds, and 1t
seemed like an impossibility to raise"
her. But some one suggested an incu-
bator, and Mr.. Haight employed the w.
+. Ford Surgical Instrument Company,
Of 3l5 Fifth avenue, to obtain one. He
found just the appliance needed at w.
G. Robinson's. 3l5 East Twenty-siXth
street, where all sorts Of remarkable
things, useful in the most critical cases
OF life and death, are made.
So Baby Haight began life three
months ahead of time, lying In the
downy bed of the incubator. where she
was kept so cosy and warm that she
never realized that she had arrived too
soon. She grew and grew. She got
plump and pretty, and at the end of
lis days she was really somebody.
Now she has been In the world almost
seven months. though whether she will
celebrate Feb. % as her birthday, or
will look upon the day she came out of
her incubator as the beginning of her
earth-life, is a question to be deter
mined by and by. But she Is a plump,
brlght-eyed, rosy-cheeked young lady
now-that nobody can deny
Il. Clarence Haight Ia "dreadfully
proud Of his little daughter. but when
papers were served on him in a suit
brought in City Court by w. f. Ford
for $500 for the use of the incubator for
lis days at S. day, he was dunn
founded.
Mr.. Haight offered 800 to William G.
Robinson. the maker and owner of the
incubator, for its use, but Mr.. Robinson
shifted at that figure.
why" said Mr.. Robinson, my incu-
bator saved that precious baby's life.
Mr.. Haight is a millionaire, and can
afford to pay for such luxuries. My
charge Is So day rental"
Consequently Mr.. Robinson sued the
w. f. Ford Surgical Instrument Com
pany for $2S6, and thereupon the latter
sued Mr.. Haight.
The Haights are out OF town, but 1t is
believed that the suits will be settled.

Autumn Fashions.

Turquoise blue. in slight touches of
velvet or satin, makes an effective
bodice garniture for dull leaf brown cos

Simple smart tailor gowns composed
OF light melton" cloths or "cheviot'

fast coming season.
Changeable mirror velvet will be pop

woollen costumes and for fine millinery.
Millinery laces have the design outlined
with tiny pailletes or spangles.
Long panel fronts OF a different ma

seen on the sides or in the back of the
skirts.
White gloves have returned to favor

shows pattern toilets and costumes to
buyers. In Paris a good model gets$2O a
month. three meals a day and Is dressed
by the firm in whatever style her en-
ployer fancies. The great Ducet keeps
six models of different types OF beauty,
but all tall. slender and well-poised
women. Positions of this sort are very
desirable, easy to get and hard to keep,
for as soon as the perfect figure begins
to lose the delicate lines a successor is
under consideration. The history of the
models OF Paris is curious and interest
ing. 1t is not unusual for pretty bonnie
