Armies Stuck In Mud

MUKDEN, Oct. Is (via Picking, Oct I'D.
-Desultory cannonading is heard, but
there is not likely to be any important
fighting today, as both armies are stuck in
the mud.
The horse ridden by the correspondent
of the Associated Press was belly-deep in
water this morning for several miles along
the road from the vicinity of the battle
field to Mukden.
The Russian achievements along the
railway yesterday were not sufficient to
enable them to maintain their position
along the line where yesterdays fight be-
gan and the Russian forces are now in
the plain ten miles north of the point
where they attacked the Japanese Oct. g..
They are fighting hard and stubbornly,
but are in retreat.
One newly arrived Russian corps gave
a good account of itself. The Japanese
successfully enfiladed three places where
the Russians had made heroic but fruit
less stand all during the past week
On account of the prowess of the Japa-
neSe in the mountains the chief interest
will now center there unless the japanese
should persist in their efforts to insert
wedge in the center Of the Russian
lines.

only been supplementing from the trenches
the work of the artillery, Is now. scat
tered all the way to Mukden, and is fire.

Judging from many Of the gowns
shown at some recent openings, it would
seem as if the toilets to be worn at the
theater during the coming winter would
be unusually dressy affairs.
The dresses that were designated as
"theater gowns WERE almost without
exception, light in color, of soft, airy ma
terials, and most deliberately trimmed, so
that the appearance Of a theater, if the
majority of the women were gowned in
such lovely costumes would be greatly
enhanced.
These gowns, of course, require long
evening coats, which would add an addi-
tional touch of elegance to the ensemble,
as nothing is more becoming or sets off
gown better than smart cloak half
thrown off the shoulders,
Chameleon taffetas, messalines and
chiffon velours in the fascinating opal or
mother of pearl colors are beautiful ma
terials for such gowns, over which cloaks
made of the new raw silk weaves with an
irregularly crinkled crepe-lil1e surface
might be worn.
The lovely gown illustrated is an ex-
eellent model for an elaborate theater
gown, or for reception, home or in
formal dinner gown. 1t is made of mes
saline in the latest of blueish pink tones
over rose pink taffeta yelled with nile

green chiffon, which imparts an exquisite
opal coloring to the gown.
The three skirts are cut on the same
lines, which is nine gored model the
only difference being that the outer skirt
is fuller than either the taffeta or chiffon
lining, and is finished with one deep
graduated f1ounce, while the foundation
skirts are edged with several narrow
ruf1es. The fiounce. as well as the upper
part of the messaline skirt, is embroider-
ed with an all-over design of morning
glories, worked in the soft green's and
delicate pinks and lavenders of the nat
ural flowers, and heading the fiounce is a
lace insertion surrounded by embroider-
ed wreaths of green leaves.
Directly in front and over either hip
are sewed open lace insertions through
which are drawn wide rose-colored chif-
fon taffeta ribbons ending in rosettes in
the way shown.
The bodice fastens at the back and is
simply made with full front, beautifully
embroidered. and elbow sleeves finished
with double ruff1es. It's trimming con-
sists merely of a pointed lace stock and
lace insertions running from the stock
over the shoulder and down the sleeve,
through which pink ribbon is run to cor
respond to that on the skirt, and the
crush belt is Of the same pliable pink
ribbon.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS

Marie: Please to tell your women
readers what it is necessary for them
to do in order to be properly regis
tered to vote upon the free text book
amendment. What questions will they
be asked? IF.
Upon the day advertised for regis
tration you must present yourself at
the voting booth of your precinct just
as upon election day, and there you
must answer certain questions before
your name is enrolled as a voter. You
will be asked your name, date Of BIRTH
how long you have lived in the United
States, in ST. Paul, and in the precinct
in which you reside. You will also be
asked If you can read and write, and
whether you are white or black. You
will not find it very difficult to answer
these questions, and those women who
desire to vote need not be deferred
from doing so by the fear that they
will be conspicuous, for many women
are going to vote this year on the sub
ject of free text books.
