The Newest
Embroidery
Designs


The style of work, Familiarity
known to our mothers and
grandmothers as English en-
broidery or stiletto work, is
now revived and there is moth
ing more exclusive or up-to-
date at the present time.
The designs are simply rich,
attractive and fascinating.
Another newly revived en-
broidery, now very popular,
derives its name Mountmellick
from town in Ireland, where
the work originated in a CON
vent and has reached high per-
lection. 1t is durable, rich and
effective.
Hardanger is another effect
i've and fascinating form of
embroidery. It originated in
the Morse town of Hardanger
and is especially rich and
quaint.
A splendid assortment of all
three of the above mentioned
embroideries now on display

KosEKI FLED.

After the departure of the guests, in
just what manner was not known to
the police at a late hour Koseki dis
appeared. The appearance of his room
at Iwilei indicated that he had not
gone thither after the tragedy. Off

others were sent out to scour the city.
Miyamoto, Saito and another Japa-
nese were taken to the Station House
and are being held for investigation.
There were blood stains upon the
sleeve of Miyamoto's kimono. but he
explains these as having probably ad-
hered to the same when he examined
the body of his friend.
A queer thing is that when the police
found the body a beer bottle had been
placed lnder Suyemoto's neck The
arms were lying at full length and
close to his body. The man lay partly
on his side and looked as if he had
died without a struggle.

BLOODY SOCKS FOUND.
About L o'clock this morning Detec-

the guests. He also delivered to the
station clerk a pair OF heavy gray
Originality socks, covered with mud
and smeared here and there with blood.
Furuta had notified the police that on
returning to his room, which is about
500 feet away from the place where the
tragedy occurred. he had found the
socks and pair of underdrawers ly-
ing on the floor in a heap. He identified
them instantly as belonging to Koseki.
Furuta stated that after the first fight
he and two or three others left. leaving
Kosel<i, among others, in the room.
He then went to visit a friend. On
returning to his room later he found
the tell-ta1e evidences OF Kosekfs

showed blood stains. It was evident
that Koseki wished to divert suspicion
from himself and fasten it upon F'u

Furuta stated that beer bottles were
used in the fight between Kosek and
Suyemoto.

the season is not yet closed. We live in
days of big sums, big things, big disasters,
and it is difficult to judge such calamities

The vicksburg at chemulpo.

1t Is really unnecessary to wait for Com
mander MarshalTs full report as to his
treatment of the survivors of the Russian
cruiser Variag in order to deny the Rus
sian charges against him emphatically and
confidently. That any American naval COM
mander would refuse or fail to succor the
wounded or drowning crew of the warship

ceivable, and that the Russian government,
with which we are at peace, saw fit to pro-
test against the conduct of the Vicksburg

fault. which is by no means creditable to
that power. During the war with Spain
our naval officers proved themselves worthy
of the worlds highest regard in this matter
OF succoring their enemies. When Cervera s
ships were smashed off Santiago the work
of rescue by the American naval forces was
of kind to win the heartiest praise of the
Spaniards themselves. No time was lost
after a ship struck her flag in the dispatch
ing of boats to- her aid In the light of that
spectacle, which has been widely exploited
throughout Europe. it was preposterous for
any Russian official to venture the sugges-
ton that the Vicksburg's commander lent
no hand in the helping Of the Variag's crew.
The fact now appears to be that he was
among the first to offer this assistance.

Russian Criticism of America.

Russian criticism of the United States is
pretty sharp and probably will continue
so. Well, the United States can stand 1t.
The world knows the story. We have in
jured Russia in nothing. She has injured US
in several things. She misled us, as she
did everybody else. about Manchuria. Her
real purposes there were concealed from
US at the start, just as they were from the
other powers. We relied upon the assur-
ance that she would retire from Manchuria
according to promise, although there was
the prediction freely made in Several quar-
tiers that she was there to stay unless dis
logged by force. AS we had no thought of
using force We could but await develop
