PRETTYFANCY WEAR
CORSET COVER EASILY MADE IN IDLE HOUR.
Model ls Simple and Involves Little
 Lahor-"Leftovers" Can Be Used x for the Material-Few Is -s ia..tseams Necessary.


 The corset cover that saves sewing on insertion, then beading, and then lace, should be welcomed, and one Is here shown that any girl could make up for herself and use the yard left from a thin lawn or batiste waist. The model is greatly in demand because it is So simple and involves so little labor. The girl who is stout and dreads to put anything extra around her hips, need not put on the little peplin which is really only to protect the corset below the waist line. In the summer when white skirts are worn this is not necessary.
 The garment Is made in two pieces, joined in bias seam at the back. and to make one like the picture here in medium size would require 1H yards of flouncing about IS or IS inches wide. If you want the skirt portion. 1t will take one-half yard of plain ma terial This will give any girl nice piece of fancy work to do on the piaz- "a or lawn, as there are so few seams

to guarantee the integrity of Korea 7 Developments in the far east in re- cent years are held by diplomats to have absolved this country from, it's obligation. Korea has itself made treaties with Japan which the nations must recognize, the United States as we'll as others. It is always a sad spectacle to witness the struggles of
 a people to preserve their ancient
 liberties says an exchange. But then
 spectacle is not new for us. Early in the nineteenth century the liberals of Europe looked for the intervention of !. this country at the time of the dis
 memberment of Poland. More recent
 ly the Boer cause appeals to our sym'' pathies as the champion of the rights
 of man. But while posing as an asy-
 lum for the politically oppressed the
 American republic has never set up as the physical champion of oppressed peoples of the old world. Otherwise
 we would long ago have interposed
 against the atrocities of Turkey, the
 oppression in Russia and above ali the cruelties of the Belgian Kongo
 rule. China was Korea's natural
 protector as against Japanese ag-
 gression, and Russia stood next. The
 defeat of China by Japan in 1895 was the beginning of the end. Ten years after Russia recognized by the treaty of Portsmouth Japan's right to ex-
 ercise protectorate over Korea. The 1 moral side of the case remains to be
 developed Japan claims to be en-
 gagged in a laudable and benefcent en- terprise in Korea. And she now has a
 free hand except as the natives them-
 selves put up fight of resistance.

The scarcity of timber throughout the United States and Europe is prob ably the chief reason why skilled tlm- bermen from all parts of the world are gathering in the Pacific northwest. It is not unusual to meet men whc have made their millions out of the development of the timber resources of Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi, joining with those from Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin in acqulr- ing timber holdings here and the lnil- Hons that have been transferred from the older states to the northwest ill such purchases have had much to do with making Oregon and Washing ton independent of Wall street in their development.

For some years the reliance of the railroads has been the United States courts, the United States senate, and the state senates, and now public opinion has had its effect on some of the judges and the real equities of the people are being considered. The same public opinion is bound to pro duce a reform spasm in the votes of some of the republican members oi the United States senate and already the state senators in several states have been falling over each other to be the first to declare for reduced rates. Now there is danger in this political management of railroads, and sensible people must turn their faces against those politicians who for political effect are ready to har- ass the railroads instead of, being fair and just toot them and the people alike. The puhaicr want tao reasonable rates, good accommodations and safe transit for passengers and goods. No one but the very radical desire confs' cation and no sensible person desires rates so low that would tend to pre- vent a fair return on the money in vested.

 Instead of government ownership what is needed is the divorce of railroads from politics. %

Salt water. fairly strong. used regu- larly several times day. will wonder fully strengthen the muscles of the eyes. It acts as tonic upon every part of the under lid and the cornea, and penetrates deep even into the re cesses of the tear gland.

The bureau of census has just pub lished bulletin on the manufacture of musical instruments. There were 625 establishments engaged in this in.
 dustry in 1905. They employed 3s,- 220 wage earners, reported an aggre- gate capital of s72.225,3Te, and manu.
 factured products to the value of s66,- 574.340. Five years before, when the census of 1900 was taken, the num- Der of establishments reported for this industry was 619; total number of wage earners, 23,T14: the aggre- gate capital, s47,7O6, ,5s2; and the value of products, s4A41s,o7s. Comparison of the figures for these two ceususes shows that there was an increase in the five year interval C1900 to 1909 of $25. .155382, or 56.6 per cent, in the value of products; SPA, 51s,T9T, CT 51.l per cent, in the amount of capital employed: and Ii, ,5O6, or 4s5 per cent, in the number of wage earners. The establishments in the meantime tn- creased by only six, or about per cent This comparatively small in- crease in the number of establishments is more or less characteristic of all lines of industry in recent years, be- ing indicative of the tendency toward production on a large scale or of com
 binations. It is evident from an in- spection of the figures published in this bulletin that the musical instru
 ment industry made much greater progress in the five years between 1900 and 1905 than It did in the ten years between 1890 and 1900. Taking the value of the products as furnish ing, perhaps. the best indication of growth, it will be found that this item shows an advance from s36.se6- 16e In 1890 to $44.41s,eTs in 1s0
 which was an increase of only f.. 550So9. or POS per cent as compared with the remarkable increase of oyer s25.OooO0O. or 56.6 per cent, in the i've years between 1900 and 1905

Returns from East-Grades Dis

At the meeting of the executive com

ternoon, at the office of the secretary,
DR.. Hebard, President Gramm of the
board of trustees and President Tisdel
of the faculty were directed to pro
coed to an inspection of dormitories at
similar institutions before having
plans for the dormitory to be built
here drawn. They will go to the state
universities of Nebraska, Illinois and
Iowa and perhaps Wisconsin and Mich.
igan before returning. The new build.
ing is to serve the double purpose OF
a dormitory n home for the social
science department, and it is the de-
sire of the committee to secure the
very best arrangement possible under
the circumstances. Nothing has been
done looking to the drafting Of the
plans, and nothing will be until the
return of the two presidents.

MAY coMPLIcATE MATTERS.
Possibility Of Twin Heirs to the Thron,
Of spain Discussed.

Paris. March GA dispatch from
Madrid to the Eclair says that in court
circles there are indications that the
queen will probably present twins to
the world. If this we're to happen it
would raise interesting legal, medical
and political questions, besides being
unique in royal history. This would
be especially the las should the twins
be boys. Disputes, it is thought, would
be certain. The present Spanish law
declares that the first born of twins is
the older and therefore has the right
Of succession. The old Spanish rule
reversed this order and modern medi'
cal opinion the Eclair says, supports
the older law, which declares that the
older child in the case of twins is the
last to be born.

District Attorney Completes Cross-Ex-

Tries New Line of Questioning
Thaw Was of Unsound Mind at
Time of Marriage, but Knew What
He Mas Doing at That Time.

New York, March 6.-The way was
cleared this morning for taking the
testimony of Mrs. William Thaw at
the trial of her son, Harry X. Thaw,
for the murder of Stanford White.
District Attorney Jerome concluded
his long cross-examination of DR..
Charles G. Wagner, one of the alien
lists for the defense, and the expert
was finally excused just before the
luncheon recess. Thaw's counsel then
stated that the defendants mother
would testify this afternoon.
Insanity and Intoxication.
Jerome today took a new tack in his
cross-examination of DR.. Wagner, and
asked if, in the acts surrounding the
killing of White, there was anything to
enable the witness to d%ifferentiate be-
tween insanity and i~ntoxication. Wag-
ner declared there was nothing what
ever to indicate intoxication, but much
to indicate insanity.
Insane at Wedding.
DR.. Wagner further testified that
Thaw was of unsound mind when he
married, but had sufficient intelligence
to know what he was doing.

Mrs. William Thaw was the first
witness called after luncheon. She
said she noticed a change in her sor

Testimony Read to Jury.
Mrs. Thaw, after recovering from
her first breakdown, seemed about to
weep again and could o proceed.
Justice Fitzgerald relieved the situa-
ton by ordering her testimony up to
that time read to the jury. 1t had
been given in a voice too low for the
jury to hear.
Allowed to Repeat Conversations.
Justice Fitzgerald overruled Je-
rome's objection to Mrs. Thaw telling
the conversations with her son in 1904.
She then related Harry's statements to
her about White, in effect c~orroborat-
ing the testimony given by Evelyn

Mrs. Thaw said she laid down as a

PICTURESQUE SCENE
To ADVERTISE DANCE.
Yesterday afternoon about a thou
sand people gathered on our streets to
witness a genuine old-time frontier
scene, says the Cody Stockgrower. At
just 5 o'clock in the afternoon a heavy
Concord coach turned into Sheridan
avenue drawn by four horses on the
dead run, and followed by a horde of
painted blood-thirsty Sioux, yelling a
fierce wal cry and shooting at the &C.
cupants Of the coach. The driver and
guard were soon shot down by the
savages, and the mail and passengers
duly robbed, all of which was done to
advertise the Red Mems dance in the
evening.
