The Ever Changing Waist Lire.

Consider the mental agility IL takes
to keep up with ones waist line. One
goes to bed at night In the sweet assur
ance that II will be under the arms fol-
the next two or three months at any
rate. and awakes to learn from the
headlines in the morning papers that
waist line is positively at the knees
There is absolutely no use in prognos
ticating anything about 1t any longer
That the waist line occurred at the
waist was an axiom accepted as un
questionably as that the earth revolves
on Its axis, but in these days of higher
criticism is likely to be anywhere. II

MINISTER TO CHILE
 TO BE WITHDRAWN
State Department at Washington Tired of leterminable Delays in Settlement
 of $l,OOO,OOO Alsop Claim.

Washington, Fov. lS.-The AL sop claim against Chile for more than a million dollars which has been pending for B yearshas as- sumed critical stage. Mir. Dawson, the American minister to Chile, is now on his way to Washington and it is not improba ble that if the Chilean govern ment does not consent to a final settlement of the claim within the next few days or agree to protocol for reference to the Hague, the American legation in Santiago will be closed and the archives placed in the hands of the American consul for safe keeping. Intimation to this eff feet has been given to Minister Cruz representing the Chilean government at Washington.
 This action on the part of the State Department is not to be taken as formal severence of dip. lomatic relations and it is not probable that Chile will withdraw her minister from Washington. No ultimatum has been given Chile but this governments pur- pose in withdrawing diplomatic representatives from that coun. try is in the way of a forceful protest against the intermineable delays which have characterized the policy of the Chilean govern ment.
 What further action may be taken by the government at Washington will depend upon the course taken by the Chileans but it is not thought probable that Chile will willingly continue to be exhibited before the world as a country which makes every possible effort to avoid the pay ment of admittedly just debts.

Norwood in. formed Treasurer Yates Morton is the treasurer of the University Board of Trustees and has been in possession of the office all the time. He says Morton was in the office at the time of the elec- tion and under the law he is per mitted to hold the office until his successor is elected and has qual- flied. Attorney Gen. Norwood says Morton is not only de jure, but also de facto treasurer. He says the suit has no bearing on this question.
