Autumn styles That win Stun


 The summer girl who for the past two or three months has been pic- turesquely dressed Isn't going in for in conspicuousness as temperature de- nlands chance a-plenty for securing striking effects, and simplicity and de- murity will be as far away from her scheming as they ever were. One of the autumn summers is put in the ae- companying picture. This gown had a skirt of white wool stuff in two deep fiounces, and its blouse waist was gath cred, fastened at the side and had a short circular basque.

It was recently announced that fine complexions could be made by an ap- plication of the X-ray. Professor Elihu Thomson, the electrician, says this is not true, and that to prevent serious physical injury the ray must be used at some distance from the body, with an exposure of not more than from fif- teen to thirty minutes. Not long ago he tested the power of the ray on his little finger, held close to the tube for twelve minutes. Richness and irrita- tion quickly followed, the nail fell off later and the flesh looked like it had been scalded. The scar still remains, at the end of eight weeks. Enough is known of the ray to warrant the rule that it shall be handled only by the ex- pert.

Score another, and a big one, for the bicycle A London physician, Dr. Mar cet, announces his reasons for thinking that asthma may be relieved or cured if the patient will ride a bicycle. His theory is that training of the respira- tion" should have an effect like that of practicing climbing on those who suffer from mountain sickness. In practice he cites the case of an asthmatic per- son who took to very moderate bicycle riding, and now finds the attacks much fewer, while "the tightness and wheez- ing which occurred every night have disappeared"

STAND BY ENGINEERS.
British Trades Unions Will Help Their
Striking Brethren.

British Trades Unions Will Help Their
Striking Brethren.
BIRMINGHAM, Eng, Sept. S.-The
Union congress resumed its sessions,
with President Stevens in the chair.
The latter in his annual address said the
engineers strike was an instance of one
of the best organized and most powerful
combinations in the world being in the
throes of a great struggle with a pow.
erful combination of capital. It was
certain, he added, that the struggle
would be prolonged, and that the engi.
neers would have to appeal for help to
the trades unionists throughout the
country. That help, the president con-
tinued, must be given, for under no
circumstances could they allow the en-
gineers to be defeated. (Great cheer
ing.)
The delegates then unanimously and
enthusiastically adopted a special reso.
luton pledging moral and financial
support to the striking miners.
Mr.. Pickard, M. p, president Of the
Miners Federation Of Great Britain, in
supporting the motion, said that all
trade unionists should tender eight
hour notices, and "sink or swim" with
the engineers.

STILL SOMEWHAT SkEPTICAL.

Government Otficials Say 1t is a Queer
Variety of Yellow Fever.
WASHINGTON, Sept. Sin addition to
Dr. Guiteras, Doctors Murray and Car
ter, also yellow fever experts, have been
ordered by the Marine hospital authori-
ties to the scene of the epidemic at
Ocean Springs.
The officials at the surgeon generals
Office are quite anxious that DR.. Cult
eras should be on the ground as soon as
possible, as they think SO much of his
opinion in yellow fever cases as to be
guided entirely by it in their action.
So far their advices are confirmatory Of
the press reports that the epidemic is of
the nature of yellow fever. Still it is
evident that even yet they are not en-
tirely confident of the correctness of the
reports received. They say that if the
disease is yellow fever, it is very strange
that out IF 600 cases, there should have
been only IL deaths.
The treasury department has pro.
cured 200 tents from the war depart
ment for use at the permanent yellow
fever detention camp, which has been
established at Waynesboro, Ga. There
are no fever patients there, but the
camp has been established as pre-
cautionary measure.

EXCITEMENT ABATES.

New Orleans People Encouraged by the
Absence of New Cases.
New ORLEANS, Sept. SIT was con.
siderably after midnight when the
board of health Office was closed for a
few hours, and the tired physicians
went home to snatch a few hours Of
rest. Up to that time, although the
widest publicity had been given to the
Gelpi case, and the desire of the board
was known that every suspicious case
should be promptly reported, no news
was received at the Office to lead to the
belief that there existed single case Of
yellow fever in New Orleans.
DR.. H. A. Cant of Water Valley,
member o. the state board of health,
has taken charge of the situation at
Ocean Springs and will spare neither
pains nor money in an effort to stamp
out the prevailing fever. He is of the
opinion that with care and good man.
agement this can be done in very few
days. All houses where fever has been
or may be, will be thoroughly looked
after, and the sick will be isolated.
The excitement has quieted down
considerably, and the people, now that
the first scare is over, see that things
are no worse than they have been all
along; and, in fact, are better as there
has been but one new case reported in
the past "a hours. and there are but
three so-called suspicious cases among
the fever patients in the town.

It Provides for the Guaranty of
Interest on Both Old and
New Loans.
This Step to Be Followed by the
Prompt Evacuation of

Turkish governments note announcing
appointment of an Ottoman gov.

Ain the Turkish troops in Crete.
A dispatch from London says: The
correspondent of the Times at Constan-

note from Count Muravieff, the Rus
sian mininister for foreign affairs, in.
timating that Great Britain was respon.
sible for the ''incalculable evils from
which Greece and Turkey are suffering
through the delay in the conclusion Of
peace between the two countries, )"
the Marquis of Salisbury submitted
fresh proposals for the settle
ment of the permanent peace be-
tween Turkey and Greece, namely
he constitution of an international
commission, representing the six
powers, under whose control Greece
shall pay her revenues guaranteeing the
interest to the holders of old bonds and
to the holders of the bonds of the in.
dcmnity loan, this step to be followed
by the prompt evacuation of Thessaly
by the Turkish troops.
A dispatch from Vienna said the
Politische correspondent announced
yhat Greece had abandoned her opposi-
tion to the demands of Germany re.
garding the control of Greek finances,
and there is possibility therefore that
the Marquis of Salitbury's latest pro.
posals would lead to settlement of the
matters in dispute between Greece and

no mean proportions and the utter fail

complish its object. When the news
that the evictions were to be attempted
spread, the whole vicinity about Finley

p. m. 20 deputies from Washington,

H. Wetherill, reached Finleyville,
where they were met by large crowd

deputy was armed with Winchester

deputies received rough treatment.
They were gradually forced back and

bricks, and an occasional shot was fired.

night reached a climax when the dep.

By this time, 1000 men, women anu

LONDON, Sept. S.-The Marquis of
salisbury's latest proposal for the set.
Element of terms OF peace between
Turkey and Greece is generally re-
garded as a victory of German diplo-

out for, namely: The control of the
Greek revenue interest of all the credit
ors of Greece, as we'll as for the security
of the loan to Greece for the purpose of
