FASHION HINTS.

A pretty and sensible fashion is the
trimming of walking suits with fur.
Rrmine is used as a lining and revert
and cuffs will be bodered with mink
or other short haired skins.
Embroidered bands will decorate
some of the smart hats. with chenille
for the principal trimming.

forget that what seems of little i'm
portance to US may be of the most
vital Importance to the character
forming before u.s.
Obedience should be taught, but we
should never undertake to teach it in
the spirit of vengeance. We should
punish only when extremely neces-
sary. and then with .ove and firmness
and after careful thought.
Until children are six or seven years
old they should have twelve hours
sleep every night, and IN addition to
this the infants should have nap Of

PONGEE FOR SEASON WEAR.
The use of pongee is becoming rath.
er fad. and many dainty little gar
ments are fashioned Of this beautiful
material, says the Newark Advertiser.
Many house gowns and jackets Law
ishly trimmed with pongee colorei
lace are shown at the local stores. and
separate waists and skirts constitute
some OF the wearing apparel. For the
opera pongee coats are just the thing,
and one may imagine that they are
not expensive, but many Of them rate
as high as the most elaborate wraps.
A new fad is to stud them with stones,
and amber is perhaps the most popular
on account Of the color. Pongee is a
color which will combine with almost
any color or shade, and amethysts
are very often used instead of amber.
One handsome model was seen of pom
gee trimmed with a deep violet lace,
which. of course, had been dyed to
match the stones. Although the de-
scription sounds rather freakish, new
ertheless the effect is most stunning.
Other gorgeous affairs are also fash
Toned of pongee and colored lace, and
much chiffon is used after it has been
colored to match the pongee.
Z WOMEN OF OTHER COUNTRIES.
1t is said that the Dowager EN-
press of China. that lady of most un-
certain temper, is magnificent in her
taste. and hates all poor specimens
OF flowers. She is said to constantly
scold her gardeners because the colos-
sal chrysantfle mums they raise do mot
appear to her to be large enough. and
she has also expressed her displeas-
ure that all trees could not be made
to produce flowers and fruit at the
same time. as do orange and lemon
trees.
Without inviting discussion of this
thorny question 1 may say" writes
Labouchere. that my own opinion is
surprising anybody wants it-that
husbands rights are what ne can get.
My view of wife's rights are the
same. Whether it is wise for either
party to get all that he or she can.
is question of expediency. to be de-
cided according to circumstances and
individual inclination. The governing
principle of the situation is that when
two people ride the same horse one
must ride behind. The question, there
fore, whenever a conflict of rights
arises, is whether the front seat is
worth fighting about, and, if so, how
long and how hard"

WHEAT PRICES ARE RISING
September Option Advances Four Cents

Greatly Excited

Chicago, Aug. 1S.-September wheat
sold at S1.09 on the Chicago board OF
trade during the day, 3% to cents
over the previous days close. Deem
Der advanced cents to $1.10. These
prices marked new record far above
all previous SO called high points.
Intense excitement attended the trad
ing. The market closed within half
Of top figures for the day in September
and one cent for December.
Reports of more alarming outlook
for the wheat crop in the Northwestern
states and Canada seemed to turn
nearly every individual in the pit into
frantic buyer. Cables were bullish
and there were indications of large for

:
/ st. Petersburg, Aug. 1S.--Thes an.
nouncement of the mikado's offer to
allow 8non-combatants to leave Port
Arthur, coupled with the demand for
the surrender of the garrison; causes
q revulsion of feeling here. The orig
inal report that non-combatants would
be Il permitted to depart before the
Estorming operations began was re-
Egarded as q humane and considerate
act. The war Office Id without official
combination OF the summons served
upon General Stoessel, but not the
slightest idea exists In military circles
that he will yield, 30 long as food and
ammunition hold out, without fight,
even to protect defenseless women
and other noncompliance from the
horrors of bombardment.
General StOessel, as an independ-
ent commander, would have perfect
right under the Russian military reg
ulations, to- surrender at discretion -
said a. member Of the general stan to
the correspondent of the Associated
Press, "but 1T may safely be assumed
that man of Stoessel's temper will
not create new precedent in Russian
history, Our military annals do not
show single case where commander
yielded fortress upon the demand OF
the enemy In order to avoid q fight.

ceptton TO the Russian doctrine that
foodstuffs are contrapand, takes po-
sition against the right of Russia to
sink neutral merchantmen and de-
mands compensation in the case of the
knight Commander. With regard to
foodstufts consigned to an enemy's
ports the communication maintains
that proof that they are intended for
belligerent military or naval force
is necessary in order that they may
be considered contraband. 1t illus
trates in this contention the case of
the flour on board the Arabia, which
was consigned to a British firm at
Yokohama and which was declared
contraband by the Vladivostok prize
court, Great Britain contends that the
Russian doctrine ia equivalent to q
declaration that all foodstuffs con.
signed to an enemy's port are uncon.
ditionally contraband. The British
note. argues the question at length
against the right to sink neutral ships
as being contrary to international law
and usage.
Although the communications OF
both governments are couched in
friendly terms they make the posi-
tions of the United States and Great
Britain quite clear and emphatic.

QUESTION OF CONTRABAND
America and Great Britain Raise Question
of Food AS Contraband and Both Pro-
test To Russia. ~ ~%

st. Petersburg, Aug. 1s.-The United
states and Great Britain have formally
raised the question of foodstuffs as
contraband of war, except when di.
rectly proved that they are destined
Tor belligerents' armies or navies.
While acting on parallel lines the
United States and Great Britain are
proceeding independently. The Amer.
lean case was presented through Am.
bassador Mccormick and follows the
lines of the American declaration at
the time of the Spanish war; It is in
the form of a protest against the con.
fiscation of -four on board the Arabia
The general American contention re
garding coal, naptha, etc., as set forth
in Secretary Hays note of June 10 are
also placed before the Russian gov.
eminent.
Great Britain followed by raising
not only the question of foodstuffs as
contraband but the legality of the
sinking Of neutral vessels. The
protest was presented through Am
bassador Hardinge. The views are
practically those embodied in the
kings speech at the proroging of par

Japs Fought Russians at Long Range
on Aug. 10.

OF aug. ~.
st. Petersburg, Aug. 1S.-Further in
teresting details of the sea battle of
Aug. 10, received at the admiralty from
Captain Matousevith of the CZarevitch
now at Tsingtu, show that it was a
long range fight and the Russians sail
ing in close formation were placed at
disadvantage not only because of
the superiority of the Japanese num-
bers but owing to the fact that after
encompassing Admiral Withoft's semi
circle they were enabled to pour in a
remarkably deadly fire on the fleeing
ships. Captain Matousevitch says the
Japanese kept at distance of eight
and never less than five miles. The
efforts of the Russians to close with
the Japanese and sink some of their
vessels by ramming them or gunfire.
even at the cost of themselves going
to the bottom, were consequently un-
successful. The japanese would not
permit the Russians to approach, but
the rain of projectiles never ceased.
The twelve-inch shell which glanced
off the Czarevitch's forward turret and
blew up the bridge on which the late
Admiral Without and his staff were
standing was fred at range of eight
miles.

PREPARE FOR LONG STRUGGLE.
Striking Packinghouse Employees Givs
Up Hope Of Peace.

Chicago. Aug. 18.-It seems appar-
ent that the labor leaders have given
up all immediate hope of peace
through any action of the packers and
are making financial preparations for
long struggle. 1t was said to be i'm
probable that any attempt would be
made to extend the strike to unions
not already involved. One chief rea-
son for this is that the unions not
already out are said to be not anxious
to strike, but the reason the strikers
give is that the more men that are on
strike the smaller will be the contri-
buttons to the benefit fund.
Strike sympathizers inaugurated a
revival of rioting during the day. Two
houses containing groups of nonunion
men were attacked by mobs, strike
breakers elsewhere were assaulted,
the attorney of one of the packing
companies was menaced by a rock
thrower and in general the day was
made stormy.
Mack Fray and John Bartholomew,
stock raisers from Cantril, a., were
mistaken for strike breakers during
the afternoon, dragged from a street
| car and beaten beyond recognition.
Trays nose was broken.

Chicago, Aug. 1S.-Three suburban

railroad at Forty-eighth street and
Colorado avenue during the afternoon
Four persons were killed outright,
it is reported, four others are expected
were seriously injured. The electric
cars were bound for the Hawthorne
race tracks and were dashing along
at top speed. 1t is said that the mo-
torman did not heed or hear the az
preaching passenger train until almost
directly upon the tracks. When he ap
piled the brakes it was too late.

DAVIS FORMALLY NOTIFIED
COMMITTEE CALLS ON DEMO.
CRATIC VICE PREsIoEN.
TlAL NOMINEE.

White Sulphur Springs, w. Va,
Aug. 1s.-Henry Gassoway Davis was
formally notified during the day that
he is the nominee of the Democratic
party for vice president Of the United
States. Mr.. Davis accepted the nomi-
nation in brief speech, reviewing the
political situation, echoing the senti-
ments of Judge Parker on the money
question and expressing the determina-
ton to be successful in the campaign.
Representative John Sharp Williams
of Mississippi, chairman of the Motif
cation committee Of the st. Louis con-
vention, delivered the notification ad-
dress.
The ceremonies were held on the
lawn of the White Sulphur Springs
hotel, which affords a natural amphi-
theater, the ground sloping up from
the speakers stand on all sides and
sheltered by huge, spreading oaks. The
day was an ideal one from every
standpoint. An early morning fog had
been dissipated by the sun and the
air was still and crisp.
Hundreds of enthusiastic Democrats
had assembled from the Virginias and
bordering states and heavy trainloads
brought others from distance. Sturdy
mountaineers came on horseback, on
foot and in wagons, with their fami.
lies. The ceremonies were marked
with the utmost simplicity. The IA:
NOUS "Stonewell Brigade band" OF
staunton, Va, organized by General
Jackson, played stirring airs. A pretty
incident occurred at the conclusion OF
the ceremonies when a delegation OF
seventeen ladies from Atlanta, Ga.
headed by Mrs. WI. Peel, all bearing
the Georgia state flag, came forward
to congratulate the candidate, These
same ladies rendered Judge Parker q
reception in Atlanta last June.
Chairman Thomas Taggart of the ma
tional committee, who had planned to
attend the ceremonies, wired that II
would be impossible for him to get *

mont was the only representative q

Farmers in Minnesota were said to be

WILL MAKE NO APOLOGY.
Japan Claims Russia Violated Chinese
Neutrality.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 18.-Informa-
ton received in st. Petersburg fore
shadows that Japan will decline to re-
store the Ryeshitelni or make any rep
aration and that on the contrary she
will contend that Russia, in sending
the destroyer to Chefoo on an impor-
tant military mission, herself was re-
sponsible for the violation of China's
neutnality, which Japan, at the open
ing of the war, promised to respect to
the extent which Russia did. Never
theless, it; is understood that Great
Britain, as the ally of Japan, has ad-
vised her to apologize. It is believed
that Japan realizes that this course
will please the Western powers, but
that she will not follow it because it
would mean loss of prestige in China.
where concession has always been
translated to mean weakness.
China has replied to Russia's rep.
reservations regarding the Ryeshitelni,
but her reply is couched in general
terms protesting friendship and the
desire to preserve the strictest neu.
trality. 1t expresses disapproval OF
Admiral sah's inability to protect the
Ryeshitelni and represents that he
SOOA%all INC }pfeCiWsIlouS pOSSlU1es Uus
could not prevent the night attack
The reply also says that one of the
Japanese destroyers was overhauled
as she was leaving the harbor and
that protest was lodged against her
action, in view of which the Japanese
captain promised to- return but did
not do SO. The reply does not say
the Ryeshitelni's restitution was de-
manded.

Toxic, Aug. 1S.-Six hundred and
one of the crew of the Russian ar
mored cruiser Rurik, sunk in the en-
gagement Sunday with the Japanese
squadron commanded by Admiral
Kamimura, have been landed at Sas-
ebo. One man died and III of the
survivors are wounded, many of them
seriously and a number MORALLY. The
number of officers rescued has not
been determined, as all the survivors
were naked when captured, having
stripped off their clothing before the
cruiser sank Thus it is impossible to
distinguish the officers from the other
men as the former are concealing their
rank.
A supplementary report of Admiral
Togo's casualties on Aug 10 increases
the total of killed and wounded to
225.
