The result In Vermont is not sur.
prising, in view OF the unparalleled
efforts made by the Republicans and
the quiet campaign conducted by the
Democrats. The administration con
centrated all it's forces and resources
upon that state, holding in the last
week 200 meetings. The candidate
for vice president, the secretary OF
war, the speaker OF the house OF rep.
resentatives, senator's OF the United
States and representatives In con-
2ress, assisted by a host OF lesser
lights, made urgent appeals to the
Republican farmers to 60 to the,
polls. Moreover, it was proclaimed
throughout the state that the presi-
dent had promised the candidate for
governor to attend his inauguration
In case be obtained a majority OF
10000.
In view OF these efforts, never made
by any party in a September election
1t is remarkable that the admins

H. G. DAVIS GIVES $4,000
The Campaign Contribution Of
the Democratic Candidate

Cumberland, Md, Sept. 10.-It was
sscertained to-day from a most relia
BILE source at ElKins that Henry G.
Davis, Democratic nominee for Vice
President, and his brother, Colonel
Thomas B. Davis OF Keyser, W. Va,
a millionaire several times, who was
the Democratic candidate for con.
gress In the second districtiour years
ago, have each contributed $4,000
to the Democratic candidates cam.
paign fund for all purposes. This
will be the limit OF their contribu.
ton.
1t has always been believed by per.
sons knowing the Davises intimately
that ex Senator Davis would not he
a heavy contributor His daughters
Mrs. Elkins, wife Of Senator Elkins,
who dislikes the fact that his aged
father-in law has been burdened with
campaign responsibilities, and Mrs.
Arthur Lee are opposed to their
father putting large sums In the
campaign. They are known to have
so expressed themselves. His only
son, John 7. Davis, now Ill with ty-
phoid fever, objects to his father
making large contributions. Four
years ago John L. Davis spent large
sums In four counties, hoping to aid
bis uncle IN bis race for congress, but
no results were obtained. Colonel
Davis was defeated by a large vote.
Since then the Davises have had little
faith in spending money for politics
Col. Davis is now Ill at his home In

). Lspsey, q st. Louis capitalist
who was In Kansas City last week
81 went there on business and was
compelled to remain about the hotel
several days. 1 became acquainted
with the secretary Of a newly organ
lied oil company. He wanted me to
take $500 worth OF stock In the en-.
terprise. When l demurred he insisted
on my going to the bank to inter.
view the president, who was also
president Of the new oil company.
There the president asserted that
$500 worth OF oil stock was worth
$500 at any time at his bank.
"Will you place that proposition
In writing?" l asked.
Certainly" replied the president.
Inen you may issue 1910 worth
ui stock to me-"
That night the president OF the
bank came to the hotel and elaborat.
I'D on the wonderful oil prospects and
' anted ME to interest my friends in
IS. Louis. The following morning l
entered the bank bright and early,
threw down my oil stock and written
agreement and demanded $500 which

president did a little quiet kicking.
That was the quickest turn I ever
made In q stock deal"

short talk on Agriculture" ex
Senator Davis referred to this q,

Nearly all who worked and fought
for independence and liberty were
tillers Of the soil; nearly all of the
early presidents had been farmers;
the majority OF successful men oil
to day have come from the farms;
farmers as class are a liberty loving
people, he said. Mr. Davis continued:
agriculture started England upon
the high road to prosperity, and the
commercial supremacy which 1t has
maintained in the world for 500
years. Agricultural products fed us
at home and pay our foreign debts.
Retween GO and roper cent OF all our
exports ore from thefarm. Our gov
ernment expends annually for the
war department 12l million dollars
and for agriculture s million dollars
over twenty times more for war
than for agriculture, and the farmer
pays larger share of taxes than
any other occupation.
When | was a member OF the United
States Senate made a speech calling
attention to the neglect OF the agri-
cultural interest by the national
government, and upon my motion

Two hundred years ago, says the
Saturday Review, London was com
paratiyely small city of 100000 inhabi-
tants. the rough and ill-kept main
roads to which had been but slightly
improved since Tudor times. The ghast
" spectacle of many of the trees on the
Southwark road bending under their
burden of hanged men had indeed been
slightly modified, but none the less the
decomposng heads of traitors still
filed the atmosphere about London
bridge and Temple Bar with myriads
of baneful microbes.
Our immediate forbears were evil

and smells. They were accustomed 70
see men sitting in the pillory pelted
with rotten eggs and probably included
among their immediate circle not few
who had been deprived of their noses
and ears for expressing too freely their
opinions. political and religious.
The Grains were in appalling condi-
ton. 1'he innumerable churchyards
were SO full of collins that they often
projected through the turf Bear and
bull batting, dog fights and boxing
matches were attended even by royalty
as late as 1920. and five years later all
the "dandies" in London were paying
high prices to stand IN carts around
Tyburn to behold % of their fellow
creatures hanged FOR misdemeanors
which in our time would be punished

the looped and curled braidings were Of
cord width. AT times. too, the curlicues
are pu. right next to plain braidings, as
when the top row Of six rows on skirt
Is the only one in twists and loops.
Again the whole lot of braiding is on
the same plan, and this seems the more
tasteful way. A tailor suit OF blue sicii-
ian trimmed with blue braid appears b
to-day's initial picture, and is sugges-
tive Of the stylish tricks in braiding.
Many of the etlns that now are appear
ing so plentifnlly are ornamented show
lily with wide braids, and in very few OF
them does an entirely simple design suf-
fee.
The lightness and softness OF the new
ly stylish fabrics constitute a bid for
shirrings and tuckings. and these, with
kindred treatments. are resorted to on
wholesale scale. Then with lavish sup
ply of self-ruchings or like trimmings for
the remaining establishment, and the
whole suggests that the material had
been tortured in every conceivable way.
When besides such treatment there is a
host of stylish trimmings, the guess that
the coming summers dresses will not be
chargeable with simplicity becomes a
safe one. Sample dress-ups for warmer
days fill the rest OF the artists contribu-
ton. In the first of these pictures are
sketched a gown of tucked light gray
wolfe. with wrap of gFsS silk trimmed
With embroidered pieatings of the silk
and with black silk cord; reception
gown of light fuchsia louisine and gui-
pure, and black figured net dress made
over white silk and trimmed with shir-
rings and white embroidered silk founces.
In the succeeding picture the artist
shows a rose celored taffeta- trimmed
with pipings of darker rose shade. a

mendous size is one result of this ten
dcncy and sleeves whose snug tops are
in one with the bodice billow out enor-
msusly from the elbow downward, their
complexities being only family echoed in
other portions of the gown. For though
the sleeve may be very ornate, it may
not stand alone as it did two seasons
ago, hut must be in harmony with the
rest
While dressmakers are as insistent as
ever on making the tops Of their patrons
droop gracefully from neck or there
abouts to about the elbow, they are
ready with relieving compromises on the
severe forms of this fashion for women
whose natural outlines are not well suit
ed to it. Already so many of these COM
promises are seen, both among model
gowns and on stylish women, that they
constitute hint that the rule for shout
der slope is relaxing. This should not be
taken too much to heart, however, for
tho slope is 81 general and is so finely
suggestive of those bygone days women
are copying. that it is sure to last in
stylishness until summer is over. Mean
while the compromise forms serve just
the purpose for which they were intend
ed in giving a chance to women whose
shoulders are lacking in beauty of out
line. A numerous form includes. cape
finish for the shoulder. This no longer
takes the cpaulette shape it threatened
not long ago to take, but is Of cape pro-
| portions. Thus. while making a posi-
| tive break in the line from elbow to

that his own lack of scruple, in any

an act of private virtue. but had pat
