Experiments are being carried out in
the Austrian Army with a new portable
oven for field and transport purposes. The
oven at present in use is very unwieldly
and heavy article and has to be trans
ported in sections. The new oven, how
ever, may be carried intact upon a cart
and if necessary can be utilized for bak
ing purposes while on the march.

r. history of clothes from the
year 1901 to the year 1901 it
is easy to see that while diff
ferent phases have repeated them
selves from time to time, the fashions
of to-day combine the beauties of the
various stages of the past, omitting
the eccentricities. The graceful, cling
ing skirt of the beginning of the last
century, almost the same bolero, find
copy in the gown of 1900. The grace
full fclu of 1888 serves as model for
our day while the voluminous skirts
are happily passed by. Though expen-
siye. it was not yet the crinoline. but
the petticoat that was responsible for
this particular feature. 1t Is said that
the skirts widened themselves to bal
ance the width of the shoulders for
this was the time of the pelerlne.
Sleeves, too, were larger, of necessity.
Early in the '30's was an interesting
epoch in the manners Of the mere man,
for then he was settling down to the
simplicity of the present-day attire and
dispensing with his elegant knee
breecnes-this, however, only after
struggle between the practical and the
ornate that had lasted since the close
of the eighteenth century.
BY 1S42 all gowns were trailing
again. This was the time of the lace
mitten and of the odd little parasols
with long fringes and double handles.
By 1860 the tide had turned, the skirts
were wide and the shoulders narrow.
By '6S the cripoline had ceased to ex-
ist, and the revulsion from width re-
suited by about 1876 in the peculiarly
monstrous costume of that day. In
the crinoline our grandmothers could
scarcely sit DOWN. In '76 their daugh-

Appeal for Protection.

TACOMA, Wash, Oct ia rebellion
against the alleged tyranny of the sailor
boarding house masters is in progress
| Several of the captains of ships now in
the harbor have appealed to the chamber
of commerce and two or three have writ
ten to the owners of the vessels of which
j they are masters and asking advice. The
| shippers complain that their men are
, stolen from them as soon they arrive
in port and that they are then subjected
to eXtortion yby the boarding-hous men
in order to secure a crew.
The trouble is similar to that which
prevailed at Portland last year. All of
the firms on the Sound which employ
sailors. 1t is said, work in harmony and
it is useless to attempt to defeat them
If the captain is in need of a crew he
must pay the price demanded. This has
always been the rule. but the masters
now claim that the boarding house men
are becoming more and more tyrannical
The charge for furnishing sailors is now
$40 per man. This the masters declare Is
beyond reason, and has led to concerted
action to force the clearinghouse men
TO be more reasonable
So many complaints have been made
to the chamber of commerce that the
board of trustees last night decided to
take some action. President Mohr was
authorized to appoint a committee of
five TO investigate the methods of the
boarding-house men and endeavor to find
some way in which peace may be restor-
ed. Tacoma has always been a popular
port with the captains of the grain fleet
nearly all of whom like to load here in
preference to Portland or San Francisco
The towage charges are cheaper and the

captains are well founded It is feared by
the chamber of commerce that an injury

Captain Carl Pohle of the North Ger
man Lloyd Company recently completed
176 round transatlantic trips, traversing
sos, $40 miles, this being a record among
transatlantic captains. Captain Pohle
is a typical specimen of the hardy mari
ners whom the North German Lloyd has
contributed to Germany's commercial
marine in its modern era of development.
There are now many captains in the
British. Danish and German services who
have scored the hundredth round trip
as captains between Europe and Amer
ica, but Captain Pohle. who has been
celebrated in verse by George Francis
Train, has become, by his long and hon

of the great German shipping company,
which numbers over six t--ousand men.
The officers and sailors of it's fleet are
mostly recruited, when mere boys, from
the provinces on the coast of the German
North Sea. and only after long appren-
ticeship to seamanship and a severe
course of theoretical studies and exam
nations in practical navigation is the
grade of captain attained.

ON THE WAY TO ST. PAUL
MOTHER BERNARDINE BRINGING
FORTY-FIVE POSTULANTs
Party Sailed Yesterday ON the
Oceanic-Locally the News of
Their Coming Is Not
Confirmed.

A dispatch from Liverpool yesterday
stated that the steamship Oceanic mad
sailed for New York With ferty-fiYe Irish
women postulants on board in charge Of
Mother Bernardine, Of the Order Of St.
Joseph, st. Paul.
AT attempt was made yesterday to as
certain the accuracy of the report, but
the nuns at st. Josephs would have little
or nothing to say of the postulants. Sis
ter Francis Joseph, mother of the pos
tulants at St. Joseph's academy, was
disturbed somewhat when shown the tel
egram. In regard to it she said: 1T g
exactly what We don't want known in
St. Paul. and that was all that she
would say in regard to the matter. She
did say, however, that she knew that
Mother Bernardine had been in Europe.
At ST. Joseph's hospital the sister in
charge stated that to her knowledge
Mother Bernardine was to bring no pos
tulants with her and that the telegram
was the first she had seen or heard of
the matter. Why the sisters are so de-
sireus of keeping the affair secret is
not known.
st. Joseph's convent and academy is
the ruling house in community of over
thirty institutions hospitals, orphanages
and academies. 1t is understood that the
postulants will be brought there to Eerve
their noyitiate terms. A reception Of
the nuns will take place in December,
but whether they will take the veil at
that time or not is not known.

POPE WORKING HARD.
EMPLOYEES OF CITY ENGINEERS
BANK EXAMINER
REPORT ALMOST COMPLETED
Long-Expected Announcement Is
Likely to BE Made on Monday
still Searching for the
Missing Pay Rolls.

Working like a Turk is the way one
employe of the city engineers Office ex-
pressed himself yesterday in speaking of
the activity of Bank Examiner Pope and
his assistants in the investigation of the
engineering department.
Every member of his staff" continued
the employe, '.has, I understand, been
put to work on the mystery, but what
they hope to unearth no one knows but
Mr.. Pope. He hasn't taken us into his
confidence
At the request of Mr.. Pope yesterday
Frank Werner, special police messenger,
was placed at the service of Mr.. Pope
and was furnished with a large number
of Subpoenas for former and present en-
ployes of the engineering department.
No law could be found to require ac-
quiescenee with Mr.. Pope's request, but
City Engineer Claussen and Corporation
Attorney Markham agreed that it was
proper to give Mr.. Pope all the assist
ance they could, and the officer was de-
tailed accordingly.
The eight missing pay rolls seem to be
the basis OF the present activity, Mr..
Pope evidently desiring to substantiate
the claims made by those who, it is
claimed, are responsible for alleged dis
erepancies.
Bookkeeper Gehan has been pressed
into service and is doing all in his power
to place Mr.. Pope in possession of the
information desired. He worked last
night on the books and also visited Mr..
Pope's Office at the capitol. 1t is ex-
pected that Mr. Pope will have his re-
port ready for next Monday, but he is
not positive. He refuses to outline its
contents.
