There have been rumors to the Of
feet that the present extravagsnt

rows of stiff puffs aud braiis which
may be bought by ebe yard were
to be discarded and that a return
to something resembling nature was
again to prevail. The truth of this
rumor would seem to be effectually
disproved by the new French hats,
which, with their towering crowns,
surmounted by veritable flower gar

preserve any sort of balance call inn

1neSe latest creations or the
French modistes are of the Gains

to their effectiveness with the EN-

also the so-called "Huguenot Bon

turned up sharply on one side and

aloft. The Charlotte Eorday"

The genuine Japanese kimonos are

workmanship and celoring. One
somewhat modified model which we
have recently seen in one of the
large shops makes ascharmIpg negli-

in pale blue or pink, semiAftted,
with bands of Dresden lowered silk
around the neck, down the front AMI
on the loose sleeves, and braided
silken cord confining it at the waist

Many of the new gowns are made
with waistcoat, and for this pur-
pose are used very beautiful trim
mings among which are conspicuous
the embroideries in Persian tints and
designs, rich with gold aHd silver

these little vests are made from Gre

new gowns, fashioned of these same
embroideries and heavy laces.

POOR FARMS OF THE STATE
DO NOT PROVE PROFITABLE,
Few of Them Are self-supporting as
iM Demonstrated by the Fig
ures at Hand.

Reports to the board of state chart
ties from the ninety-two counties au-
ditors of the state show that while
all of the county poor asylums in the
state have farms of varying size. few
are f-supporting.
The maintenance of the county poor
asylums for the year 1907 amounted to
$446, 431.2S; new buildings and ex
traordinary improvements cost an ad-
ditional s14S.624.42, bringing the total
expenditure to $565.O557O The sale of
farm products brought into the county
treasures total Of $s5,53455, making
the net expense of the institutions
$500, 521.15.
The county auditors report a further
expenditure of $207,471.S4 on account
of the dependent children and the
township trustees spent $227.304.71 for
outdoor relief of the poor. This makes
grand total of $1.029. s31.75, and con-
stitutes the principal items of expense
incurred by the counties and townships
| on account Of the poor during the year
1907.

LABOR NEWS

The comm ercial telegraphers are said
to be preparing for another strike.
Resolutions were adopted at recent
meetings of Chicago locals favoring a
general strike, to go into effect June
1, unless demands presented before the
strike Of last August are granted in
full
federation of all the union men
employed in the shops of the Canadian
Pacific and the Canadian Northern rail-
roads has just been completed. They
will fight the reductions in the new
wage schedule. Similar action, it is
said, may be taken by all of the Ameri-
can railroads, and may mark the be-
ginning of a struggle between the
unions and the railways.
The Pennsylvania Cigarmakers' Blue
Label League has started a printing
office for the purpose of turning out
blue label advertising matter. All
kinds of label advertising matter will
be handled and the profits, if there
are any, will go for an organization
fund to be used among the Pennsyl-
vania cigarmakers.
In San Francisco there is a move
ment to organize all the laborers of
the several departments of the munich
pality into new union. The men of
the fire department have asked the
labor council for information upon the
subject of forming a union, to work
on lines similar to the various unions
affiliated with the council
1t is reported by the unions in New
York City, affiliated with the American
Federation Of Labor that they have de-
cided, at the request Of the Interna-
tional Brotherhood of Bookbinders, to
make a demand on the city officials
that the books for the different
branches of the New York public Ii
brary be bound by union men who are
American citizens.
The labor union movement in Can
ada, where many of the unions are
closely allied with those in the United
States, has gained much ground in re-
cent years. In 1907 there were 232 Ia
Dor organizations formed in Canada,
while So organizations were dissolved,
making a net increase of ia organiza-
lions during the year.

The Hot Springs team got the jump
on the others and has been leading the
Arkansas league.
If any one thought that Connie Mack
was getting a dead one when he took
over Jimmy Collins he had better start

Pitcher Elmer Steele will surely help
Manager Kittredge and his Scranton

Another happy smile for Manager
Jimmy McAleer of ST. Louis. Jack
Powell has the true ring of pitcher
this spring.
1t takes real money to run a minor
league ball club. The owners of a
South Atlantic team say they lost
$4,000 last year and so far this season
they are in debt $1,000 and owe a sal
airy list of $3.50 more.

is trying out a youngster by the name
of Wilhelm, who is doing nice work
Wilhelm is doing nice work all right,
but he is youngster like Jake Beck

James Kroupa of Indiana Harbor,
and John Kamradt of Hammond were
wined and dined and toasted last night
at banquet prepared in their honor

Lemon, superintendent of the local
branch of the Chicago, Lake Shore &
South Bend interurban.
The event was a celebration follow
ing the famous walk of Kroupa and
kamradt from the Harbor to Gary on
the occasion of the democratic conven-
ton and barbecue and the friends and
the host of the principals in the walk
ing match overwhelmed the latter with
honors. The defeated pedestrian was
the recipient Of as many compliments
as was the victor and the seconds came
in for their share. All parties present
did full justice to the elaborate menu
that was temptingly set forth upon the
festive board.

The banquet took place at the Lake
Shore hotel at o'clock, after the din
Ing room had been cleared of the usual
dinner guests and the company had the
apartment all to themselves. There
were covers for twenty and the table
was made as attractive as possible with
an abundance of red and white carna-
tons Mr.. Lemon made the most
charming and gracious of hosts. and
all paid him the compliment of saying
that in such capacity the street rail
road man was at his best.
Program of TOasts.
There was an informal and i'm
promptu toast program and every guest
at the board had something to say that
was entertaining and to the point. Be
sides the speeches there was music, ev-
cry person present who had an "ac.
complishment" being urged to do g
stunt. Mr.. Kamradt made nice talk
in which he thanked his host for the
entertainment offered and declared ht
was always ready to walk with any
body of his weight, any distance. This
was regarded as in the nature of g

that another match may be pulled of

pals in the near future

The authorities learned today that
Mrs. Guinness was in the habit of
purchasing her supply of quick lime

skeletons of three adults were taken
from one of the holes in the barn yard.
In each case the victim was beheaded
and the legs and arms separated from
the trunk. Marks of an ak or meat

other signs of the instrument The
gunnysacks in which the remains were
buried were the only things which

All of the bones were found less than
