MEDICAL ASSOCIATION
FL0URISnINC NICELY
Profitable Meeting was Held
Last Evening.
Doctors are Deeply Interested
in Some Pending
Legislation.

The Marion County Medical Asso-
citation held very important meet
ing, Tuesday evening and considered
medical legislation, matter which
lis attracting the attention OF ply
sicians and surgeons throughout the
country. Drs. Lewis, Weeks and

ISOLATION some time ago to attend
the meeting OF the. medical commit
tee OF the Ohio legislature reported
the committee to be much in favor
'of the various bills now pending be-

Americans Planned a kaid
on q Foreign Camp.
they LOST THEIR JOBS
And Bla med the Foreigner
for the Deal.
Courage Failed the Majority Of tn
Men and Waiting Foreigners were
Denied the Pleasure Of a Fight.

For time Tuesday evening II
Seemed probable that Marion would
be the scene OF 4 pitched battle be-
tween American and foreign laborers.
The difficulty was over, the dis
charge of the entire force OF American
laborers at the Erie ice house and
the employment OF Italians and
Hungarians- Fourteen Americans
|were given their walking papers
while eighteen dark visaged foreign
ers were allowed to take their places
at a decrease OF salary, amounting to
but little. Consequently for time
vt seemed that 1t would be serious
trouble.
The leaders of the home force ar
ranged to quietly visit the camp OF
the foreigners late in the evening
and warn them that 1t was time fol
them to leave the city. Apparently
because of lack OF courage, but few
were willing to undertake the task
and It was a small band that assem-
bled before the hut OF the foreign
,ers.
The Italians had apparently been
warned OF the possible trouble and
We're ready for their enemies. They
state that with rush they pushed
forward. when they perceived what
they thought TO be their combatants.
The local men fled hastily upon see
ing the foreigners armed with the
tools used In their ordinary labor.
No trouble had resulted after the af-
fair was over. but uupon seeing an
American today. the husky Italian
ispits fire.
Residents. who had heard OF the
Impending danger had gathered to
watch the battle but few had cour-
age to endure the bad weather until
the fracas came to an issue.
1t Is not believed that any future
action will be taken by the Amer
leans. They are out OF work and
have little hope OF securing employ
ment for some time. and according
Ito the Erie officials the persons, who
ARE known To be the leaders in the
dissention will not be employed in
the future. iJsgcang g

Straw and Linen Hats.

OUTING hats. though a separate de-
~ partment in millinery. are neverthe
less involved in great variety of style
and shapes. Fashionable hatters lead off
in the sale of such hats. and the custom
with many is to go to them for that
smart headgear wear with utmost con-
fidence.
A shape that has taken with the young
contingent is made of an ivory white.

brim, and has rather a small. low crown.
of velvet or the woven ribbon Sort that
comes for the purpose. There is no bow
or fastening observed upon some bands.
This wide brim is turned down mod
erately so that it gives shade to the eyes.
which the popular smaller sailor hat
failed to do. PanamaS are in various
shapes. and in tint pure white. or in the
more yellowish tones. Scarfs, with or
without wings or quilts. are decidedly in
favor for their trimming. the scarf ends
in some cases being longer than usual.
Large pompons. in bunch clusters, or
single and double ones, are. with broad
and fetching quilts. the desirable trim
ming styles. Stitched and starched cotton
and linen hats do very we'll for occasions,
and are very pretty in themselves. but
will not stand much wear. and for that
reason are unfit for long Journeys.
For motoring, straw turbans are the
most practical. as they may be kept on
the head very steadily. in spite of high
winds, and are better adapted to the fit
ting on of the contrivanceS for keeping
out dust as well as giving very good, trig
lines for yelling purposes.
