Felt turbans are new and good-style.

To call them felt turbans, scarce hints at the charm that marks these new hats.
 They are much more than that They are studies in monotone or in contrast. They are tasteful examples of how pretty simple hat can be. They are illustra- tions of grace and color beauty.
 All are draped with vel vet. Some are trimmed with wings or quills, others with fancy ribbon in a contrasting color. But the one-color eff fects will impress most women as the richest.

$2OO, 900 WAGERED ON RESULT OF
 WORLD SERIES
Special from United Press.)


 Pittsburg, Oct. 5.-A1l reserved seats for the first two games of the worlds series between Pittsburg and Detroit have been disposed of, there is nothing left for the fans to do but spend the time until the opening game figuring the "dope" and getting ready for the rush. It is estimated that $200, GOO has been wagefed within the past two days and as the time for the games draws nearer the betting increases. The De- troit fans are evidently very confi- dent as their money has come with out strings attached.
 Aside from the straight betting on the result of the games, freak bets are available everywhere and considerable money has been bet that Wagner will outbat Cobb. Either Babe Adams or ''Vic' Willis will pitch the opening game.
 The Pirate squad is now in excellent shape, Camnitz being out yesterday after a weeks i1lness. Catcher Gib- son left the team last night and start ed for home to rest up before the games.

Boys like them because, they have style, fit well, look good till they are completely, worn out.

HOLY WAR DECLARED.


 Gibraltar. Oct. 5.--A holy war. a war of extermination against the Chris tians. has been declared by the Mo hammedan priests of Morocco with the Riff tribesmen. and to-day thousands of fantatic warriors of the interior tribes are pouring into the native camps that hedge the Spanish troops in Melilla peninsula, according to dis patches received here to-day. Experi- enced officers from the troops of Mulai Hafid have taken charge of the Riff forces and are planning to lead the wild tribeSmen.
 The effect on the Spanish of an at- tack by the fanatics and, courageous natives under competent leaders can be Judged from the success of the Riffs in their past disorganized attempts. The belief is hourly increasing that Mulaid Hafid in his latest move against Spain is backed by German in- huences. The Kaiser is known to be more than. anxious to nullify the treaty of A1geciras and extend Ger man domination over all Morocco. Ger man vessels are known to have landed cargo after cargo of arms and am- munitions at Moroccan ports within the week.
 Aides Of Mulai Hafid have already assumed control of the campaign of Melilla. They are clearing the sphere of hostilities of non-combatants in ex- pectation of a terrific struggle. The Morocco tribes are being sent to the interior where they will be safe in case the natives are forced to retreat from the neighborhood of Melilla Lines of Qualifications are being thrown up by Mu1ai Hafids engineers along the low hills that skirt the Melilla peninsular where the natives have penned up the entire Spanish force.
 The declaration of a holy war is now granted to be the work of Sultan MuIA1 Hafid. His an1iSSarieQ have been at work among the priests ever since the beginning of the Riff trou- ble, urging 9 war of extermination The declaration of holy war will con- centrate the entire available fighting force of the tribes

REBELLION THREATENS
 POWERS
British Cabinet Expected to Take Action in Moroccan
 Troubles Today
France Has Already Had a Finger in the Pie and Ger many Aids Rebels.
Special from United Press !

r London, Oct. 5.-With the British cabinet momentarily expecting to take action in the Morocco trouble today, the Riff rebellion now threatens to precipitate grave international diff eulties. It leaked out today that yes- terday's cabinet meetingE was called for the purpose of considering the sit uation in Morocco with view to safe guarding British interests. The dip- lomattc service has uncovered what it is convinced is the real aspect of the Moroccan rebellion and the result has caused profound alarm.
 British statesmen today insist Spain was forced to proceed with the Riff war by France for the protection of French interests. France, now con- vinced that Spain is practically beat en, is likely to take up the campaign in Morocco. In this event, diplomats say, Spain's Moroccan existence would be at an end as France would crowd the Spanish out of Africa.
 All available facts indicate that Ger many is not idle but is at work try ing to extend her domination of Africa by assisting Sultan Mulai Hafid who is known to be aiding the Riff tribes men with arms and ammunition. The Kaiser's desire for Moroccan territory is well known and it is evident that he is not overlooking such an oppor- tunity to nullify the treaty of Alge- ciras
 England's only hope today seems to be the maintaining of the status quo by going to the assistance of Spain and putting down the rebellion as ex- peditiously as possible. That the cab- met is in favor of such a step is indi- cated by the diplomatic note sent by Spain to the Powers, announcing the intention to permanently occupy the Moroccan coast from Cape Tres F,orcas to Tetuan. This note admittedly has the support of England.
 The cabinet has not yet definitely decided on the position it will take but is holding itself ready to act momen- tarily in the event of positive develop ments indicating aggression by France or Germany

for today in the District Federal
Court had been indefinitely post

tinued: that he and Mr.. Cumming
also of counsel for the road, had sim
NV been notified that the postpone
ment had been ordered and that 1t
would not be necessary for them to
appear in court in Richmond today.
The fact that the hearing or arsn'

postponed. with no date fixed for

indicate that the trouble may be set
