A Neat seam.
9-24-26d25w

On extremely fine material II is
easy to make a neat seam by first
whipping the two edges together
with very fine thread, letting the
needle fold under the raw edges as
you whip it over and over the goods.
Next turn the goods and make very
narrow seam. This is frequently
done with chiffon or materials that
slip when sewed on the machine.

ICELAND AN OLD REPUBLIC

Plueky Fight Of a Wonderful People to

Iceland, which soon Is to become an
Independent state in the united Danish
empire, furnishes n remarkable exam.
pie of the effect that climate and con.
ditions have upon mankind. During
q thousand years Iceland cold, un-
Inviting and all but sterile island in
the north Atlantic OCEAN. has been an
outpost of civilization, and during
much Of that time its inhabitants have
led the rest Of mankind in the march
of progress toward an ideal form Of
government. 1t was the haven to
which the oppressed IN Norway fed
ten centuries ago. Its barren shores
offered livelihood only TO those with
energy and thrift who could wrest 1t
from the sea or the fringe of unpro-
ductive acres between the coast and
the snow capped mountains of the in
terror. The mere struggle for exist
ence and the necessity for thrift de-
veloped in the people traits that made
them models the rest of mankind
would have done well to copy during
the middle ages.
The people Of Iceland organized a
republic nearly 1000 years ago. They
adopted q constitution and were gov
crned by chosen representatives when
most of the world was being overrun
by the armies of tyrants. They had
trial by jury nearly 300 years before
the Magma Charta was granted to the
people of England They embraced
Christianity more than 900 years ago
and long before the European fore
fathers of the most of lis had ceased
TO pay homage to pagan gods. With
the dawn of Christianity they took up
the art of writing and developed n
wonderfully rich literature OF eddas
and sagas, the undying glory Of n re-
markable people. They cherished per.
sonal liberty and tEeir freedom as II
people. Their laws relating to the
duties and privileges of citizens, the
care of the poor and other problems of
self government were centuries in ad-
vance of the times, and some of them
have not been improved upon since.
The little republic was engulfcd in
the wars that involved the Mortimer
and after 300 years of success became
a dependency Of Norway and later Of
Denmark. The people, however, new
er lost those sterling qualities that had
prompted their ancestors to establish
a republic on the desolate island. Dur
Ing all the succeeding centuries, when
life was an unceasing struggle, the
Icelanders never were quite subducd
in spirit. Denmark granted to the
people of the island home rule, and
now 1t is practically agreed to have

CUBS PRESIDENT is
ON THE ANXIOUS SEAT
Commission Has Suspended Many of
The Players and Axe is Due to
Fall Again.

President Murphy of the cubs APP
peared in his office today in the Corn
Exchange Bank Building, wondering
If he had ball club left. The national
baseball commission has been welding
the axe right and left among players
who contested with the semi-pro out
laws" and the contamination has
spread hither and yon.
Early in the day the commission an
nounced from Cincinnati that practically
the whole Washington and Minneapo-
lis teams had been declared ineligible
on account of their players engaging
in games with the Logan Squares.
The fact that Dutch" Schaefer of De-
troit played in game with the Wash
ingtons on Saturday and on Sunday
played in the cubs-tigers' game at the
West Side Park would render the whole
mess of champios ineligible.
The white sox will probably hear of
their ineligibility within a few days,
as they played against the Logan
Squares Saturday and Sunday.

M'FARLAND IS INJURED
Lightweight to Face Cross Tomorrow
With Laceratcd Vfsage.

Stratford, Conn. Oct. 19.-An Ill fate
seems to be camping on the trail of
Packie Mcfarland in his preparation
for his six-round mill with Leach Cross
before the Paramount Athletic club of
New York on Wednesday night. An
injury sustained in boxing with Joe
Thomas, the coast heavy weight, came
within an ace of causing a second

the boxers, Mcfarland butted into

off his gloves and succeeded in staunch-
ing the flow of blood until surgeon
performed a professional job on the

would be forced to seek a postpone

gamely refused to wait. An injury to
his ankle while doing road work in
training for bout with Cross sched-
uled for an earlier date compelled Nc
Farland to call off that engagement

GIANTS SPLIT UP NEAT SUM
Moneys Given by Brush and Taken In
at Benefit Divided.

New York, Oct. 19.-There is at least
one consolation for the giants They
did not win the National league base
ball pennant, carrying with 1t a large
amount of money in the play-off series
with the American league champions,
but they did win an amount of money
figuring in the thousands for their gall
liant fight for the National league flag.
This amount is said by those who
ought to know to reach at least s14, 900.
OF this $4,000, to be divided among
the players, the greater share of which
will go to those who compose the reg
ular team, $4,000 was donated by
John T. Brush. president of the New
York National league club. as the club
receipts from the play-off of the tie
between the giants and the Chicago
cubs. To this amount was added the
receipts from an exhibition given for
the benefit at the Academy of Music
last night.
There will be no game between the
Detroit tigers. The New York players
would like to have such a game and
John T. Brush today gave his permits
sion to the men under contract to the
New York club to play the American
league champions. But after canvas
sing the New York players who could
be kept together, it was decided to call
the game off.

BUSY TIME IN PROSPECT
FOR LIGHTWEIGHT CLASS.
Cross and Mcfarland to Have Bout in
the East This Week.

New York, Oct. 1S.-This will be an
active week for the lightweights in the
east Packie Mcfarland is to meet
Leach Cross Wednesday evening and
owen Moran is now trying to take the
place of Joe Cans, who is not likely
to meet Tommy Murphy next Friday
evening. Moran wants a try at the
Harlem boxer.
Dick Hyland has been firing chal-
lenges at all men of his weight and
every aspiring man of the same avoir-
dupois is trying to break into the
limelight If Mcfarland outpoints
Cross, as it is generally thought he
will do, he will have no lack of bouts
here.
Terry McGovern has again been
heard from. Although he showed by
his work in the lightweight division
that he is only the shadow of the Ter
rible Terry of yore, he wants to have
another chance in the ring. Joe
Humphreys is urging his claims for a
bout. owen Moran has practically de-
cided to move up into the lightweight
ranks, as more money is in sight
there He can still make 127 comfort
ably.

HEARD BY RUDE.

Gary must be place of some i'm
portance when Taft decided to talk
here instead of Chicago.
Mr.. Gompers nearly got himself in
trouble with the unions in Gary. He
worked his voice overtime.
The new skating rink is one of the
most popular places in town.
Mr. Corey rode right in and turned
around and rode right out again.
Mr.. Taft will be with us on Saturday
night. Gary republicans are already
preparing a warm reception for the
judge.
Prairie fires made Gary look almost
as bad as Chicago with its Illinois
Central
The first furnace in the steel mills
was lighted on Saturday and all in
dfcations point to the opening of the
big industry in a short time.
Crown Pointers are just as anxious
as ever to be connected to Gary by an
interurban, but enthusiasm on the part
of the promoters is below par.
The Garyites who went on the fish
ing trip to Kuntz lake speak very
we'll of the trip and time. but in re-
CARDS to the fish? Not even a mos
quito bite.
Although the Gary regular football
team did not show up very strong in
their game on Sunday, it was their first
attempt and they promise to make a
better showing against Lowell next
Sunday
Local republicans who attended the
rally and barbecue at the county seat
last Saturday speak in the highest
terms of the treatment they received
in the hands of the Young Mems Re
publican club at that place.
All Gary is wondering whether the
two ends of the tunnel will meet or
whether they win pass without rec
ognition.
Taft will not follow Gompers' style
in his speech next Saturday night.
Neither will he deliver his speech from
an express wagon.
Whether Mabelle came with Corey it
could not be learned. At all events
she was not seen hanging round the

White Flyer" set new marks at Elm
Ridge today in the five-mile free-for-
all automobile race which had been
postponed from yesterday on account
of darkness. Baker made the five miles
in Asp. His fastest mile was done in
0:56 2-5. Second place went to Gus
Seyfried in a White thirty horse power
stock car The Buick racer took third,
and Frank Woodward's PLAIN fourth.
The cars got away together. The
Buick spurted and led the first three
quarters of a mile. when the White
Flyer" went rapidly to the front. to
continue in the lead for the rest of the
race. Seyfried took things easy, trail
ing the Buick until the last mile, when
he put on an extra ounce of steam
and left the Buick in third place.

KICKED GLOOM HOOOOO
Gives Midway Squad Fair
Chance of Disposing of
MinnesOtans.

Coach A. A. Stage arose in his
might yesterday and kicked the gloom
hoodoo" over the Marshall field fence.
Then he began his preparations for the
Minnesota football game on October 81
with no signs of distress over the
closeness of Saturdays Il to maroon
victory over Illinois
Instead of starting the grind in bear
ish mood, Stage announced that he was
distinctly satisfied with his team He
pronounced the back field fully up to
ment in the line before the gopher
battle. He also frowned on some of
the rooters who affected to feel down
cast over the outlook
According to the director there are
no dark clouds hanging over Marshall
field. even though Minnesota may be
stronger than last year and out for
the maroon scalp. He gave the Mid
way team a fair chance to dispose of
DR.. Williams eleven with the added
development they will get in the next
two weeks.
Looks For Strong Line.
Coach Stage is sure his forward wall
will be a much different structure
when the gophers invade Chicago's
camp. The addition of Louis Falk to
the line and the return of Worthwine
to the ranks of the forwards are two
factors counted on to place the maroons
In far stronger shape than they ap-
peared against Illini.
