PYTHIAN KNIGHTS
Just Walk Into Official Salaries With
an Ak

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. 25.-The
election Of officers Of tnei Supreme Lodge,
knights of Pythias, did not take place this
morning. It Is usual to elect officers the
third day Of the biennial session, but It was
occupied by Investigations that are going
on. There were stormy times in the lodge
rooms this morning. Appointments which
usually went through with a whirl at
former meetings were either referred or
voted down, and there was a strong deter
mination on the part of those opposed to
the present supreme officers to track close
to Pythian laws In everything. This morn
ing a resolution was introduced that Will
cut the expenses Of the meeting of the
Supreme Lodge half in two and will make
this session the cheapest ever held with so
many Representatives.
A resolution requiring reports from the
officers as to supplies furnished and de-
claring that in the future such purchases
must be made by competitive bids
was introduced and considered. An
inquiry was also made as to the present
conditions Of the claim held by the Su-
preme Lodge against the City National
Bank of Fort Worth, Texas.
A resolution to abolish the supreme tri-
bunal on the score of its cost was de-
feated.
An attempt will be made to reduce the
number of members of the supreme as
sembly uniform ranks, and q warm fight is
expected over it.
The session this afternoon was the re-
port Of the estimate of the Finance Com
mittee. The committee went at the salar-
les with an axe and chopped everything
in sight. The committee recommended that
the per diem of the supreme representa-
tives be reduced from IS per day and FIVE
cents mile each way to 50 a day and 8
cents a mile actually Travelled.
The encampment Is nearing Its end. This
afternoon the Uniform rank encampment

feature Of the business Of the United Ty-
pothetae of America convention today was
the hearing of George w. Harris, chair
man Of special committee Of the Interna-

Milwaukee for the purpose Of advocating
before the convention the proposition for

vote of the union It was decided to enforce
the short hour work day. though the time
has not yet been fixed. The short day had
been agftated since 1887. and the union
thought 1t a good proposition for both the
United Typothetae and the union. In cities
where the scale Of wages was high the
union would be willing to accept reduce
ton, but where the pay was low no changes
would be made. The fixing Of the scale In
the different cities would be left to the

VIENNA, Aug. 25-Austrian sugar man
ufacturers are beginning to fear that after
peace between Spain and the United
States has been concluded the United
States wifi admit Cuban sugar duty free,
in which case Cuba in a few years Will be
able to supply all the sugar America needs,
thus involving serious loss to Austria
and Germany. In this case 1t is being asked
whether American concessions to Austrian

dad Put Him to Flight.
AS Mr.. Bildad wiped his mouth with
his napkin and pushed back from the sup
per table he sighed a sigh of contentment
"Mrs. Bildad, 1 see that the Spanish
torpedo tlotilla has arrived on our side of
the water. That means war;
what is a torpedo 1lotilla?' asked Mrs.
Bildad as she poured another cup of tea.
"a torpedo l%lotilla, my dear, is a fleet of
torpedo boats"
"Well, what are we to dop"
"What are we to do, Mrs. Bildad? There
Is but one thing for us to dove must
dispatch our torpedo boat destroyers
against them"
"Now, what on earth is a torpedo boat
destroyer, Mr.. Bildad?"
A shade of annoyance passed over the
face Of Mr.. Bildad. He gazed at tho wife
Of his bosom haughtily.
"Mrs Bildad, such ignorance is mex
cusable. A torpedo boat destroyer is Il de-
troyer of torpedo boats. 1t seems to me
that any one with a grain of sense would
know that much"
Mrs. Bildad may have been hurt by this
remark, but if she was she kept the fact
concealed. She dropped another lump Of
sugar into her CUP and remarked:
II suppose, then, that when we send
our torpedo boat destroyers out, Spain will
send her destroyer of torpedo boat de-
stroyers, which will call out our destroy
ers of destroyers of torpedo boat ~destroyers'
If this does not settle it and Spain sends
out her %destroyers of destroyers of destroy
ers of torpedo boat d%estroyers, all we ear
do Is to send out our destroyers of the de-
stroyers Of the destroyers that are to de-
stroy the %destroyers of torpedo boat de-
stroyers."
"What on earth, Mrs. Bildad''-
"Yes," interrupted Mrs. Bildad as she
scooped from the bottom of her cup the
sugar that had not dissolved, "war is a
horrible thing, but II we must send our
destroyers of the destroyers Of the des''-
But Mr.. Bildad kicked the cat across the
room, grabbed his hat and rushed out the
door, falling to give the wife of his bosom
the customary goodby kiss.
"That's just like a man." unused Mrs.
Bildad. "They cavil at us women for not
knowing all about public affairs, and
when we show that we are posted they get
mad"
Then Mrs. Bildad proceeded to gather

SUM GOWNS.
Stiffness and Rigidity Banished In Favor
of Clinging Styles.


Horizontal stripes of all widths are much
worn this season. They are woven cross
wise in many cases, while in many others
goods with lengthwise stripes are made up
crosswise. The arrangement of horizontal
stripes On a skirt, when they are of a pro-
nounced character, is by no means an easy
task, since the lines are apt to Join awk-
wardly at the seams. When the skirt can
not be cut all in one piece, it is a good
plan to have only three breadths, a front
breadth and two wide ones, which are cut
slightly bias where they join the front and
are sufficiently large and curved to form
the sides and back of the skirt. Another
way of doing is to have a number of
breadths, each breadth bias on both edges,
the stripes matching so as to form points
at the seams.
Godets are still sometimes mentioned by
fashion writer's, but the thing itself, the
stiff, organ pipe godet, is entirely gone
out and is not seen at all. Every bit of
rigidity has been banished from skirt and
sleeves, and not an inch of haircloth is to
