The end is not yet in Servia. A
strong portion of the Army is in favor
of the present dynasty, and the Aus
trlan influence may be thrown that
way. This will mean a civil war with
secret assistance from two great pow
ers and some of the smaller ones. The
Turk will look on and smile and no
doubt throw a curse at the Christian
dogs whom he will be delighted to see
cutting each others threats. Bishmil-
lah' may they all fry in Jehannum,
may they be delivered over to the pow
ers Of Eblis, and may the sons of dom
keys sit upon the graves of all their
ancestors!

MISS ROOSEVELT WON'T
PAY FOR THE FR0CK
Daughter of President Did
Not Wear Gown and
Declines to Settle

Washington. Dec. 1.-THE bearing Of
this tale "laysin the application on it,
as Cap'h Cutie used to say.
Four young women, including Miss
Roosevelt. daughter OF the President,
think the story is humorons. A dress
maker thinks II IS tragic.
Miss Roosevelt aud MSS Carolyn Pos
'tlethwaite were to be bridesmaids at
the McCauley- -Tuckernlan wedding.
They had their frocks made like the
frocks of the other brtdssmaids-pink
ones with thingumbobs on them. Then
Miss Roosevelt's uncle died. and Miss
Postlethwaite was III andlneither could
be a bridesmaid.
All this happened the DAY before the
wedding. There was "a st'ent scurry to
get other bridesmaids, ard bridesmaids
who could wear the pink ftocks intend
ed for Miss Roosevelt and Miss Postle-
thwaite. for there was no time to make
new ones. Two girl substitutes OF the
same figure We're found, Miss Alice
Gordon Tucker ana Mias Florence Field
They wore the frocl7ss and the we'd
ding was soytui. although it lacked the
presence Of the first daughter of the
land.
That was some tine ago. Now the
dressmakor wants her pay for the pink
frocks. Miss Roosevelt and Miss Pos
tlethwaite say they cant possibly pay
for the frooSs. because they didn't weaI
them and never have.
Miss Tucker and Mise Field say they
shall not pay, because they didn't or.
der the frocks and they were not made
for them. ~
Meantime a highly respected dress.
