DULUTH CLUB MEN ARE
ON THE ANXIOUS SEAT

Duluth, March 1.-The Duluth
Social club is in the limelight. and as
a consequence 1t is rumored that q
number of we'll known men about the
city are anxious as to the effect that it
will have on the question of their be-
Ing able to explain matters at home so
that they may attend the meetings in
the future and indulge in harmless and
amusing pursuits that are supposed to
occur at the club rooms.
Attention was directed toward the
club and its alleged operations when
Jacob Matson, Lake avenue saloon
keeper filed a default judgment for
$3,326.50 in the district court against
John G. Howard. The amount repre-
sents, 1t is alleged, Matson's losses and
the winnings which he did not get after
indulging in game of poker for
money.
Default Judgment. 4.
The papers show that the summons
and complaint were served on Mr..
Howard Feb. S, but that&he did not
make answer within the twenty days
allowed by law, default judgment then
being taken by Whipple & Greene, at
tOrneys for Catson.
Jacob Matson claims that John G.
Howard is in possession of two base
ment rooms in the Torrey building on
Superior street, which he maintains
and operates as a gambling place,
where poker is played for money.
Mr.. Matson claims that number of
persons known as the Duluth Social
club have keys to the place. and that
1t Is resort for the members to play
poker for stakes more substantial than
for drinks and cigars.
1t is alleged in the complaint by Mat
son that John G. Howard is the bank
err" and furnishes meals to the players
while the games are In progress; that
the players are furnished cigars and
drinks paid for in chips which are re-
deemed and paid for by Howard.

RAILROAD PERSONAL DAMAGE BILL
INTRODUCED BY SENATOR GILBERT

Bismarck, March 1.-The following
railroad personal injury bill was in
troduced by Senator Gilbert and pro-
vides an act relating to liability of
common carriers to their employees.
Section 1. That every common car
rier shall be liable to any of its en-
ployes, or in case of the death of an
employe, to his personal representa-
tive. for the benefit of his widow, chill
dren or next of kin, for all damages
which may result from any negligence
Of any of its officers, agents or en-
ployes, or by reason of any defect or
insuficiency due to its negligence in
its cars, engines, appliances track,
roadbed, ways or works.
Section 2. That in all actions here
after brought against any common
carrier to recover damages for per-
sonal injuries to an employee, or where
such injuries have resulted in his
death, the fact that the employee may
have been guilty of contributary neg
ligence shall not bar recovery, where
his contributory negligence was slight
and that Of the employer was gross in

Of Interest to Women

New York, March 1.-One OF the
most striking handkerchief has a fine
dark blue linen center and white
linen border plentifully strewn with
dark blue polka dots. For the most
part, however, the centers are white
and the borders of pink, blue, lavender
or red. The new pink shades seen are
specially popular.
Lace founces and insertions will be
much used for frocks- this spring and
summer. Some of the pieces shown
In the shops are wide enough to make
long trailing skirts, while other lengths
are cut specially for the waists and
sleeves. These lace spitings are made
in both simple and elaborate designs,
some being plain enough for a debut
ante, while others are so decorative
that they will be appropriate for ball
and dinner gowns The patterns in
which these flounces are made are
mostly floral devices, with occasional
scroll or geometric figures to make the
whole more compact and elaborate.
The dressmakers are showing a good
many model frOcks of more or less
simple character, made up in summer
silks, and almost every woman finds
them interesting because her own sum-
mer wardrobe is never complete with
out one or two such serviceable items.
Ordinary pongee in one tone coloring
light or dark blue, in the soft greens
Of the almond type and in the new
browns, Is modish and practical, though
1t will not stand hard wear so sturdily
as will a good foulard or taffeta, at
least 1t will not retain its appearance
of freshness SO long, though In some
qualities 1t wears surprisingly we'll.
With her usual perversity, fashion
has decreed that collars increase in
height and in comfort, too, strange as
that may seem. 1t is. however, easily
explained. Since those little wal
leines," or featherbones, that give the
necessary support, have for some time
reached fairly up to the ears, they
could become no higher, but the change
Is in the transparent covering, which
is made of soft lace, entirely or in
combination with some filmy material.
Instead of being rounded out, as it
formerly was, the collar is made
straight; hence 1t must be little loos-
er, and so it shapes and gives properly
with the neck (therein lies the COM
fort), while the top, which is unstiff-
ened for about half an inch, thus add
ing to the soft becomingness.
Cravats and ties are now exceeding
ly chic and becoming. The most fash
ionable collar of the moment is the
high turnover But the newest feature
Is not so much the collar as the tie.
Ties in every shade and design of
plaids and stripes are seen at all the
fashionable shops. The ties are made

Has q @Rake.Of."

Matson claims that there is a rake
or" or "kitty," set apart for and taken
by Mr.. Howard as the profits of the
games, in addition to the winnings
which he might make on the cards.
1t Is also alleged by Matson that on
divers occasions he entered into poker
games with Howard and other men,
bers of the Duluth Social club, during
the course of which he lost several
sums of money, aggregating $2,262.5O,
which sums he claims that he paid
over to the winners.
Matson claims that game was
started Friday, Jan. II last, which
closed Saturday, Jan. IL, in which he
was the winner to the extent of $3.50,
as represented by chips. He alleges
that when he went to Howard to cash
in, the latter only paid over $3.50, ex-
planning as his reason for not paying
the whole amount that excessive and
injudicious credit had been extended
to one of the members who had failed
to liquidate his Indebtedness" as
consequence of which the banker coulc
not cash all the chips.
Matson claims that he has on sew
eral occasions since Jan. 12 demanded
a settlement of the balance he claims
as his winnings. but that the latter has
refused to pay him.
Judgment was demanded and has
been taken for $2,262.5O. that Matson
claims he lost. and for the 81 $50 which,
he claims he won, but did not get.
One of the interesting features CT
the case Is the bill of particulars, in
which Matson gives the dates and the
amount that he claims to have lost.
The dates begin with Aug. 4, 1906, and
end with Jan. II, 1907. and the amounts
range from $25 to $175.
The Duluth Social club. as shown by
the records in the register of deeds
office, was incorporated Jan. %, 1907,

to fit the collars and to accord with
their style to a large extent. With an
embroidered collar, high turnover,
were shown bows of accordion plated
null and fine linen. These were plain
white or polka dotted in black and COL
ors. These bows were also made of
three pieces of lawn accordion plated
and trimmed with lace, bound together
by knot in the center.
The white embroidered collars in lin
en- are also worn with very large made
up bows of Roman striped silk, with
four-in-hands OF the Roman silk and
Scotch plaids and with quaint small
bows of narrow striped ribbon made
with four loops, no ends and two knots.
There are also plated satin stocks of
white with the lower part of plaid or
striped silk. ending in a four-in-hand
or Windsor tie. Other elaited white
satin stocks have the lower part of
plaid silk, ending in a fiat pair of
crossed ends in front. Again the plaid
silk Is used for the upper part of the
stock, and the lower part is made up
of plain silk, with the crossed tabs or
four-in-hand in front.
Linen coat and skirt costumes are
every bit as smart and as necessary
for complete outfit as they were last
year. There must be one or two white
suits In wardrobe, and certainly as
many more colored ones, for, while
white looks coolest, the colored ones
are most attractive at this time of year,
an dali white has been popular now
and all white has been popular now
for SO long time that all colors are
receiving welcome this season. Both
long and short jackets are worn and
one style seems about as popular as
the other. The short coats are rather
deliberately trimmed, either embroi-
dered or braided all over, or at any
rate have lace collar and cuffs, while
the long ones, or three-quarter
in length, with a fitted or semi-fitted
back are plain. Many of the linen
guimpes and suspender gowns have
jackets to complete the suit, making
a most attractive costume.
There is the so-called shirt-waist
dress in linen that will be so much
worn next summer, but the material
is trimmed with lace and embroidery
and the frock gives little or nothing
to suggest. short waist. Many Of
these morning gowns are made prin-
cess and few empire, but the ma
jority are comparatively simple, made
in two pieces, with a narrow embroi-
dered orsstitched belt or wide ribbon
girdle. There is nearly always trans
parent lace collar and wide cuffs, for
the majority of morning dresses now
have long sleeves, full at the shoulder,
with deep lace or transparent lin
gerie cuff.

LAND BOOM IN EGYPT.
Gold Being Hoarded by Egyptians for
Rainy Day.

Egypt is having a boom, and that
explains in part the old mystery
where all the gold goes to. There
is a crazy land speculation in Cairo,
the cotton crop is increasing at good
prices, the area of arabic land is in
creased by the new Nile dam, rain
is more common from the same cause
And gold is being boarded in the
Oriental way usual when times are
good. A consular report says that
nearly $2O,00O,000 was sent from Lon
don last October, but it has all been
absorbed. The sellers of the cotton
crop have the money boarded in their
houses. The gold-beaters' bazaar is
crowded all the time and it is esti-
mated that each week many pounds
sterling in gold coin are melted or
beaten into bracelets, necklaces and
chains. That gold is always boarded
in Egypt is proved by the fact that
some George III. sovereigns are COM
ing into circulation.

FIGHT DIVORCE EVIL
Wisconsin Ministers Get To-
understanding Old and
New World Statistics.

Milwaukee, March 1. - Ministers
Of protestant denominations in Wis
consin, after commencing the stand Of
the Episcopal church and the Vatican
in reference to divorce, have agreed to
favor more stringent regulations on
subject.
One of the ministers at meeting
held on this subject said the wedding
fee must have less influence with GER
tain ministers who are asked to marry
couples of doubtful character. The
larger individuality in American life is
also ascribed as a reason for the start
ling size Of the divorce records.
Startling statistics were submitted
by Rev. L. H. Keller, who took up the
status of the divorce question in the
United States.
I'm the last twenty years the United
States, with its population of SO.OOO,-
600, has granted 100000 divorces" he
said, while all Europe, with its 34O,-
100000 population, granted but 214,O0O
divorces. Apparently more divorces
occur in families where there are
either few or no children, or where
there are many children. Desertion
of wives is becoming SO frequent as to
demand drastic remedies. Where money
is the standard of life, family ties are
weakened and divorces are frequent
The families of the poor do not Of
ten go to pieces. The strain of our
modern civilization is falling most
heavily upon the families of the great
middle class. who are supposed to be
the strength of our civilization.
From the standpoint of the law. the
tide has turned and is now setting to
better laws and their enforcement.
Most of the states actually throw more
legal safeguards around the city lot,
the farm or any old plug than they do
abou. the home. But we are seeing
things ana turning in the right direc-
tion."
Rev. S. A. Rose. urging What the
Church Should Do" said, first, that it
ought to blush for shame over the pre-
vailing conditions. The Catholic and
Episcopal churches were the only ones
to stand for literal Interpretation If
the scriptures.
Rev. Henry Coleman apparently
doubted the efficacy of stringent di-
vorce laws, citing the immoralities Of
France and the conditions in South
Carolina.
