ternational Association Of Machinists. Mr..
Roderick returned from Garrett, Ind, to-
day and held a short conference with the
Baltimore & Ohio officials. The conference
adjourned until later without reaching an
agreement. TIL piecework system has
been in operation in the shops at Garrett,
but the company's attempt to extend the

Must Have Harmony.

Nothing will so calm the people and pro-
duee harmony between the church and the
government as the certainty given by con-
tract that the friars shall leave at a fixed
date, shall not return and shall not exer-
else any influence from Manila over the
priests in the parishes. In view Of these
facts II is hoped the vatican will accept
the propositions.
The note ends with calling the attention
OF the vatican to the clause regarding re-
ligious teachings in the public schools, say
ing that Judge Taft's Instructions prevent
further discussion Of the matter. 1t also
calls the attention Of Cardinal Rampolla
to the sixteenth section Of the general Law
for the Philippine schools, a copy Of which
is enclosed.
The note is accompanied by the kind OF

Get a Taffeta Coat.

Apropos OF summer costumes. here Is
a piece of advice given by one of our
best modistes: Count among your
wardrobe a taffeta coat. Taffeta coats
are not new. admit, but they are go
ing to be in vogue for some time yet.
and a really handsome one will be in
the end satisfactory investment. The
smartest coats are three quarter length
and are lined either with black or white
taffeta. Lace is used for trimming and
this is responsible for the fabulous
sums asked for many of the coats.
Even the canvas coats lined with tat
feta mount up astonishingly in price.
in many cases s125, $3.50, and even $500
being demanded.
Canvas and yelling coats are only q
passing fad, however, but the taffeta
ones will be worn for many months to
come, so good quality of silk made up
into some smart style will prove worth
the money expended.

1t was in the knotted fringe OF tho old

capture might never have occurred.
In 1864. when Gen. Jubal A. Early
made his demonstration against Wash

the Capital. The advisabili,y of a home
guard was suggested. and the employees
OF the Treasury Department took the
initiative in the movement. From that
department there was soon organized a
fun regiment. II was christened the
Treasury Guard. and Treasurer F. E.
Spinner became its colonel Every aft

AS to styles in wells, it seems to me
that they change of:ener than any other

one has to continually keep buying new
