DRESDEN HATS,

This is the only style allowed in the trimming
of round hats, and the rule also applies to the
Dutch bonnets which are such fascinating
little bits of loveineSs that they will not soon
go out of fashion, for evening wear at least.
The correct hat for service, however, is a

MINISTER TERRELL TALKS
About Forcing the Passage Of the Dar'
daaelles
The Subject of Dispatch Boats Has Not
So Much as Been Mentioned Since
February Last

CONSTANTINOPLE Oct. H.-Hon.
"A. w. Terrell, the United States minis
ter to Turkey, has given to the Asocia-
ted Press the first explicit and author
ICED statement from an official source
regarding the admission Of the Ban
croft in the Levant directly irefuting the
wild, unfounded statements circulated
in the United States and telegraphed
here that the Bancroft was instructed
to proceed through the Dandanelles and
to Constantinople in spite of whatever
protests might be offered b the Turk
ish authorities.
When the attention of Mr.. Terrell was
called to this story he said with empha-
sis: 1.-The report that the Bancroft will
under instructions force the Dardanelles
is too ridiculous for serious notice. The
fact of the matter is that have not
applied for the entry of dispatch boat
to Constantinople since February. The
statement that I have abandoned or
withdrawn application is entirely'with-
out foundation.
Il have not even mentioned the sub
ject of dispatch boat to the Porte since
February.
1.-The relations between Turkey and
the United States are cordial. No Amer
fcan has been sacrificed during the mas
sacres and it is improbable that the
United States will depart from it's ira
ditional policy of meddling in the do
mestic affairs of Turkey"

THE ARAGO WRECK
Vessel and Cargo Gone-None Of the
Bodies Recovered

+ 'MARSHFIELD, Ore, Oct. 21.-
Wreckage of every description lines the
beach near the scene of the wrecked
steamer Arago. She is fast imbedding
herself in the sand and only twenty feet
OF the top of her masts are visible at low
water
A patrol of the beach for several miles
at different hours of the day failed to dis
cover any of the bodies of the unfor-
tunate victims of yesterdays disaster,
and it is believed that they have been
buried in the sand beneath the rolling
surf and will never be recovered. The
patrolman of the life-saving station re-
ports the body of drowned man fas-
tened in the rigging this morning. The
object, which was observed from the
jetty. could be seen after each swell,
and it was soon recognized as the out
line Of man hanging head downward,
with his feet fouled in the ropes of the
forward rigging. The sea was too
rough to allow the lifeboat to go out
and make an investigation.
The surviving crew is quartered at
Empire City, awaiting the departure of
the steamer Homer for San Francisco.

cipal witness, related the story of his
relations with Mrs. Coonradt. He swore

told that Mrs. Coonradt had some mon

broached the question of matrimony
to him. but that he had never for an

A COFFEE PILL

Take a pill from your pocket, drop it
in a cup of hot water and in the twink
ling of an eye have coffee as black as
your hat and as strong as team of
Percherons.
That sounds like an apochryphal tale,
but it is true. This new preparation Of
caffeine, which is to- do away with all
the boiling and clarifying and fuss which
make the coffee barely worth while, has
just been discovered by two German
chemists. If their expectations are re-
allied. the making of coffee will be
simply the matter of compound pei
let containing the coffee ingredients,
along with the milk and sugar.
This is only one of the almost in
credible triumphs of German chemis-
try which has already produced OUT
nine which cannot be distinguished 40
far as therapeutic quality goes, from the
