The kimono is made with sleeves
and body portion in one and can be
cut either with or without the seam
at centre back. In either case it is
known as the one-piece style, the
seam being used only to avoid piec-
ing at undesirable places when the
material is not wide enough to cut
satisfactorily on the fold.

The New French Skirts.

There is a rumor in the world of
fashion that skirts r to be narrow
and skinny. The latest French skirt
is cut with a narrow front seam, and
this extends above the waist, where
it is closely fitted to the figure, the
side seams being similarly shaped
and fitted. The back has a pleat,
which also defines the waist. This
corselet style of skirt is most becom-
ing to tall, slim women. AS it is cut
to give an impression of narrowness,
it is seldom lined, and very little un-
derclothing is worn

sleeves are of moderate fulness and

that it deals with every calling and

GOT CART
BEFORE
HORSE

IL was a matter of trying to get
the cart before the horse" when
the question of bids for the purchase
of an additional horse and cart for
the street department came up for
consideration before the old council
during its dying moments, when It
was found that only one bid had
been received. and that was for a
dump-cart, but none for horse.
The bid for cart was from Pohle
& Bishop, which offered to furnish a
cart of the first-class. according TO
illustration, for SEQ, and for the
second class $55. The bid was re-
ferred TO the new committee on
streets.

New City Council InaDgnrates
First Meeting With lire
some Wrangle on
Old Subject

Warren bitulithic" and "bitumin-
Gus macadam" pavement were the
magic words or term familiar to the
eyes and ears of the Salem public,
which were responsible for the pre-
cipitation of spirited debate upon
the street Improvement bugaboo
and gave the new members a taste
of what is In store for them, and is
only one Of the multitude of troubles
to be endured In the strenuous life
of an alderman.
The question was brought up
through a resolution offered by AL
derman Gesner, calling for the pave
ment of Commercial street from the
south line of Trade street to the
north line of Union street, with obi
luminous macadam" pavement. This
was followed by other resolutions of
like character; two from Alderman
Stockton to the effect that congress
be asked to make an appropriation
to improve Court and State streets,
adjacent the federal building, and
that the state legislature be asked to
appropriate money for the improve
ment of these streets adjacent to the
state house, and another from Alder
man Gesner for the improvement of
| m apalnl
Church streets.
All of the latter resolutions were
adopted without comment. but the
Commercial street resolution ran up
against snag in its downward
course of flight in the sluggish cur
rent of municipal legislation, and
dropped anchor in the harbor OF the
committee on streets and public
property for repairs.
There was q disposition on the
part OF some members to amend the
resolution to read Center street In
stead OF Union. and this question
brought out another long-wlnded dis
cussion until. driven to a state OF
! desperation, Alderman Goode moved
to amend the amendment to pave the
street from South Mill creek to tn,
concrete bridge.
"The motion Is indefinite as tC
points" chlrped up Alderman Ges
ner, "and Is therefore out of order
This put a quietus on the pro
posed amendment to the amendment
and the discussion drifted to splr
tied diseration upon the points OF the

= took advantage OF the opportunity e
e tell what they knew and what the,
; didn't know about street improve
ment, and the resolution finally wen
to the committee on streets for con
sderation.
This was not accomplished, how
ever, until Alderman Bayne came tC
the front with a vigorous protest
against such harum-scarum. catch
, as-catch-can legislation, and In
stalled his patent 'pell-mell gait
upon the highway of the council pro
ceedlngs and called a halt. He an
chored his gate so securely that the
proceedings received a violent sci
back, and that settled the business
at least for the time being.

STEAMSHIP OWNERS DEFY THE STRIKERS Serve Weeks Notice Upon Longshoremen; No Increase 1000 SYMpATHIZERS QUIT Twelve Big Liners Are Due By To- night-Loneshorem Say They
 Are Powerless In Unload
 ing Freight.
1000 SYMPATHIZERS QUIT

New York, May 10.-The resident heads of the steamship companies included in the International Mercantile Marine com pany assumed the aggressive today, when following the conference they served mo- tice upon the striking longshoremen that unless the latter returned to work within a week their places will be permanently filled by other men. At the meeting of steamship officials they reaffirmed their determination not to yield to the demand for higher wages.
 Patrick Connor, president of the Long, shoremens Union Protective association, said: Full victory for the strikers within twenty-four hours"
 The Longshoremen met at their Man. haitian headquarters tonight and later MT. Connor said that the strikers were of one mind to stay out until their demands were conceded.
 Twelve big liners are due here within the next forty-eight hours, and seven ocean going steamships are scheduled to depart in the same period. Connor de- clared that the lines would be powerless to cope with such a congestion and must meet the stevedores' demands.
 The strikers talked today of making an appeal to the fremen and engineers of the tugs which carry strike breakers to and from the piers to come to their as- sistance, but they are bound by their H. cense from the government The strikers were somewhat encouraged today when 200 employees of the Fall River line went out. One thousand lumber handlers, em- ployed by fourteen lumber companies. also struck today. demanding an increase from $2 50 to $3 for a day of ten hours. The lumber handlers organization is sl branch of the International Longshore- mems union.

OIL FIELD STRIKE OFF.
"Open Shop" Runs and Many Strikers

Beaumont, Tex. May 10.-A special dis patch from Saratoga says the strike in the oil fields is off and the men are re- turning to work.
 As a result of the settlement of the strike in the southeast Texas oil fields all "open shop" prevails at Spindle Top, Saratoga and Batson. At the two former places nearly all of the old men have been reinstated. At Batson the operators state that they had already filled all but a few of the positions and that the strikers will have to wait for vacancies. The Guffey company states that no dis crimination will be shown against the strikers in filling vacancies on their works, but that an "open shop" will here after be the rule at all points.

 became aware that a man named Charles II. Mover had been in the penitentiary at Joliet. Operatives were at once set to work to collect evidence as to the identity of the convict, C. H. Mover, for the purpose of introducing It at the trial of the president of the Western Feder- ation of Miners in a certain contingency. No evidence on the subject can be intro duced, except that an attempt Is made to show good character. If this be done at the trial of Mover, witnesses will be on hand to show that the president of the Western Federation of Miners is the man who served term in Joliet peniten- tiary for burglary. If Mover was at work In the Black Hills in 1886 and can pro- duce proof to show that fact the jury will have before them for decision the question of the preponderance of evi- dence.
