Are We at War.

The magnitude of the labor
strike and the immense indus
trial losses occasioned might
we'll justify the question wheth.
err we are in 4 state Of war.
A few days ago two men sat
down to d little council in the
city of New York;. Pierpont
Morgan, a private citizen, hav-
ing controlCof immense indus
trial assets, and Mr.. William j.
Shaffer, another private citizen,
having behind him $4,000 stall
wart men. Although neither
was vested with authority by
the people of the land and both
are private citizens in the most
complete sense of the term. yet
they sat down to reach de-
cision not within the power of
emperiors or presidents. An EN-.
peror might we'll hesitate before
he would throw the industrial
interests of his country in to
confusion. A president would
be restrained by traditions and
law against taking such a de-
cisive step. Yet these two
private citizens, sitting peace.
fully across from each other, by
a single relative and defiance,
have thrown $4,000 men out OF
work. AS a consequence IN
vested interests are losing
their profits and the families of
laboring men are losing the
support and comfort that can
only be gained by working
every day in the year,
Is it wise that such power
should be lodged in the hands
of any two men: The trainers
of our government evidently
thought otherwise. They re
fused to place the power of war
even in the hands of the chief
executive of the nation. They
threw such safeguards around
a declaration of war that it re
quires not only presidential
but congressional action anC
the sanction Of the people be
hind that Yet what is forbid
den to the government is airily
undertaken by private individ

Enterprising James Shaw.

James Shaw, the owner of

has an option on Stillwell's is
land located in the river about
one mile above the bridge which
spans the Mississippi at this
place. If the purchase is made
Mr.. Shaw will establish a pleas.
ure resort on the island. He
will have the grounds cleared of
all underbrush. leaving only the
larger trees for shade, and a
dancing Pavilion, rcfreshment
stand and comfortable seats
will be erected. a gasoline
engine will be put&in to pump
water to be used for sprinkling
the grass and other purposes.
In fact Mr.. Shaw proposes to
make the place an ideal summer
resort.
In the event that the deal is
Consummated the Davenport
will make regular trips on Sun
day and evenings whenever SO
desired by citizens of Hannibal.
There will be no charge for the
use of the park, but a small
sum will be charged for trans
portation on the Davenport tC
and from the island.
1t is believed that such "a re-
sort, if properly conducted
would prove a paying invest.
ment, and no one questions Mr..
Shaw's ability TO do so. If the
arrangements are made the
work of clearing the ground
will be commenced this fall and
the other improvements will bt
made in the early part of neXt
spring, so that the park will be
in readiness for picnics, etc, be
fore the warm weather arrives

Was Pretty But Oh My

The prettiest and nattiest
bathing suit at Manhattan
Beach was worn by Edith Yer
ringtou, the prima donna of the
Burgomaster company. That
is, it was the prettiest before
she got it wet. 1t was new
white suit. bought for the occa.
sion for a $50 bill. 1t was trim
med with gold braid and at,
tracted more attention than
any suit seen at Winthrop in
many seasons.
None of the male onlookerS
could Judge of the beauty or fit
of the costume after it got wet.
One of the girls nearest the
prima donna after her first
plunge in the water sdw some
thing which made her shrek
loud enough to drown score Of
factory whistles.
Then she called all the girls
within sound Of her voice and
made them form circle around
the shrinking form of the prima
donna. Then she went for i
barrel with both er DIS knocked
out, slipped it over the prima
donna's head and in that man
ner got her up the beach to the
bath house and away from tbs
vulgar gaze of the boys.
When the girl was asked fo
the particulars about the prim'
donna's mishap she said:
Poor, dear Edith! She was
frightfully cheated at the store
in which she bought the bath
ing suit, When il got wet i
was just like so much mosquit,
netting. You could see RICH
through it. NV, it was awful.

Fall Gowns.

~ WV VI
is Willing away the sultry days
of midsummer in the sheerest
of gowns. unmindful of aught
save the combination Of mus.
Inns and laces, yet the makers
OF the modes are already antic-
ipating with keen the array in
which the summer belle will
make her return to the severity
of fall costumes and what orna.
meutation will be used to re-
lleve the tailor made type and
beautify the more elaborate
gowns.
The shops are already show
ing small buckles as one Of the
leading garnitures for fall
costuming, following the idea
in vogue abroad These slide
buckles are in plain gilt, silver,
rhinestones, cut steel and gun
metal. They vary in size and
in shape are circular and
square.
The lacing eyelet, too, gives
promise also of becoming a
favored form of embellishments
for autumn gowns. In form it
looks just a shoe. lacing hook;
it is fastened underneath, and
is intended to be used in a
double row, form which the
cord of the dress laces from
side to side. 1t is made in gun
metal, silver and gilt in two
sizes, large and small.
A larger lacing eyelet has a
fat rounded top, running in
size from half an inch in
diameter TO an inch and a
quarter. A consecutive circle
leaves circular opening in the
center. On a very short stem
the under part of this eyelet is
sewed to the dress, the part alb
owe slipping through a verti
cal opening in the goods. This
eyelet is also arranged in rows
on the dress, lacing from side
to side.

contrasting combination will
be the crocheted eyelets OF bull

for use on cloth gowns. They
have already made their APP
pearance in black and in white

being a quarter of an inch il
diameter and the largest one

A white silk waist was seer
in one of the shops in which
the crocheted ring had beer
utilized to produce a trimming
of attractive style. The ma
terial was white louisine. There
was double cluster of tucki

front showed a shirred vest o
