to Be Enforced.
MANY FAMILIES BANISHED
Effort Made to Secure an Extension
Of Time.
PREMIER CANNOT INTERFERE
Says Law Against Illegal Residence
Is Clear-No Resort to
Compulsion.

ST. PETERSBURG, May 21.-While the
expulsion of Jews declared to be living
without the pale has not yet actually be-
gun, thousands of them will be compelled
to leave the various cities where they
are residing within a month. To the edict
banishing $50 families from kiev mas
been added an order eXpelling the Jews
from ,Kursk Tula, Tambov, kharkov,
Yekaterinoslav and several other cities
The number of families who are to be eX-
pelIed from, these latter places range
from ) to 100.
Appeal for Delay.
Numbers OF those who are ordered eX-
pelied have telegraphed NJ. Friedman, the
Jewish member of the duma, to secure a
suspension of the order or at any rate
longer delay in the order of expulsion. SO
that thew NAV arrange their affairs. Nj.
Friedman transmitted the request to Pre-
mier Stolypin, who told him that he could
not interfere. the law was clear he
advised NJ Friedman, however, TO appeal
to the senate in individual cases where
doubt existed as to the legality of eXpul-
sion and in particularly distressing cases.
Claim Legal Residence.
1t is reported that in Yekaterinoslav
province there are five families who have
been residing there since 1882 and who,
when they asserted that they were legal

der guard like ordinary prisoners unless
they left Immediately.
There have been no forclble eXpulslonS
reported from Kiev, and no general
measures for the expulsion of Jews from
Moscow are contemplated, so far as is
ascertainable.

KNOX PLAN ADOPTED
Successful Mediation Between

BOUNDARY LINE DISPUTE
King of Spain, Named as Arbitrator,

BOUNDARY LINE DISPUTE
SUGGESTS DIRECT SOLUTION

| The success of Secretary Knox's plan
| OF mediation in the boundary dispute be-
| tween Peru and Ecuador is assured. The
| Ecuadorean minister yesterday called al
| the State Department under instructions
| from his government and informed Sec
retary Knox that his government ac-
cepted with thanks the offer of media tion
by the United States, Brazil and Argen-
tina in the settlement Of the matters in
dispute between his country and Peru.
| Peru had already indicated her pur-
pose to accept the proposition, and moth
| ing now, in diplomatic way, remains to
| be done prior to the withdrawal of the
| armies of the two countries from the
| border line.
/ Unusual Condition Arises.
most unusual condition has arisen,
however. by the action of the King of
Spain, to whom was referred the ques-
tions in dispute for arbitration. A tele-
gram just received at the State Depart
ment states that the Ecuadorean govern
ment has informed the American legation
at Quito that the Spanish foreign office
had by note informed that government,
as we'll as that of Peru, through their re-
spectative representatives in Madriu. that
his majesty the King of Spain would
withhold pronouncing a decision on the
boundary question in order to give the
two countries concerned a free hand to
procure direct settlement OF their diff
ferences.
This decision of the King of Spain
mades mediation the part of the
United States, Brazil and Argentina i'm
perative, as under the joint note from
these three governments it was stated
that in case no award was made or in
case serious difficulties should subse-
quently arise the three governments
would undertake a satisfactory solution
by mediation.
His Individual Judgment.
At the State Department, it is said, the
action of the King of Spain in deciding
to indefinitely postpone his judgment
was not Influenced in the least by either
of the medating governments, as they
had not concerned themselves in any
way whatever with the kings course in
the matter.
1t is assumed at the State Department
that the two armies facing each other
on the border line will be Immediately
Withdrawn and that soon thereafter the
three mediating governments will take
up the question of adjusting the bound
airy controversy, but what the exact
procedure will be has not yet been de-
termined upon.

An epic quest it was of elder years,
For tabled gardens or for good red gold.
The trail men stroye in iron days of old.
Today the steam god thunders through

Who offer wares. keen colored, like their

Rebuke the softness of the modern man.
No menace now the deserts mood of

Still westward lies a green and golden

The wilderness. and where of yore the

Tortured the toilers into dateless tombs.

ping of the collar is a matter for pro-
fessionals or very clever amateurs.
The yoke properly finished, it is not
a difficult undertaking to supply the
subyoke. The yoke proper is the base
on which to build the subyoke. This
latter is generally of ace or net. Shad-
ow lace is new, and Persian lace is
much used. Gold fish net is excellent.
To drape it successfully a fitted lining
should be Used for the bodice. This
is allowed TO extend from collar to
belt. and on it the yoke proper is hn-
ished. The subyoke is arranged over
this perfect fitting lining on a dress
form. The upper line OF the subyoke
is usually finished with piping, a cord
or a fold to make a perfect joining.

BE SWEET AND N

IF things don't go t. suit you,
l. What use to frown and sigh?
You can't frown back the sunshine
That's missing from the sky
Nor frown away the winter
In wishing 1t were spring.
The wisest thing to do. my friend,
Is just keep sweet and sing.
A SONG will make ones burden
"A. Seem lighter, while a sigh
Adds to the load we carry.
We can't tell how or why.
We only know it does 1t
And hat the lit and swing
OF cheerful song make happy heart.
So just keep sweet and sing.
nON'T fret and fume and worry
~ And make things worse, say I,
Since we can't help what's happened.
So laugh away the sigh
And trust that on the morrow
The clouds will all take wing,
Believing God knows what is best.
So just keep sweet and sing.

H PLANETS.
They All, With Their Satellites, Ex.
hibit Phases Like the Moon.


We are likely to regard the moon as
the only thing In the heavens that ex.
hibits phases such as the quarter, the
half and the full. AS a matter of fact,
all planets and their satellites exhibit
separately such phases. and most Of
them can be easily seen with a small
power telescope. Thus Mars and We
nus, which are comparatively close to
the earth, show through the telescope
at times a beautiful crescent, at others
a half planet fully as brilliant, consid-
ering the distance, rs does u satellite.
AT times also the planets suffer eclipse,
just as the earth. the moon and the
sum-. and these eclipses are foretold
with as great accuracy.
AS to just what causes the phases,
say of the moon. is easy to comprehend
by a homely analogy. If n stands in
a corner of a room, places a globe OF
some description in the next orner and
a light in the third corner the phenom-
enon of the half moon is seen. The
light, representing the sun. shines OF
course on half the globe representing
the moon. but the observer in the cor
ner sees only half of the surface to-
ward him illuminated. If now the light
be placed behind the observer and a
little above his head a full moon win
be seen, the sum-" however, shining
on the same area of surface as BEFORE
merely allowing this time a view from
the 'earth'' of the whole amount Of
illumination. All the phases can be
demonstrated in this manner by nov
ing the moon directly outward from
its corner.
One of the greatest discoveries OF SCI
ence is due to observation of the
eclipses of Jupiter's moons. 1t was
found that when the earth was in the
part of It's orbit nearest to Jupiter
these eclipses occurred sixteen minutes
earlier than when it was In the far
thermost part. whereas by all rules of
astronomy they should have occurred
at the same minute each time. 1t was
deduced from this that light was not
instantaneous and consequently took
sixteen minutes to raverse the diam-
eter of the earth's orbit, a distance OF
about 200, 100000 miles. thus giving to
light a velocity of 10000 miles a Sec
ond, which was accurately shown later
by other experiments.-St. Louis Re-

ONE PIECE HOUSE GOWN.
Prevailing Fad Is One of the Most
Convenient Garments Ever Devised.

Prevailing Fad Is One of the Most
Convenient Garments Ever Devised.
Although the ole piece gown for
street wear has not been received with
the popularity which was predicted for
it, 1t has attained Il considerable vogue
for house year. The everyday house
frock is really Il matter OF much I'M
portance. As a matter of fact. we
have advanced Il good deal since 1t was
sufficient to make Il house costume of
a cloth skirt and Il shirt waist. 1t
took the woman world rather more
than a decade to discover the truth of
the matter in this shirt waist and
skirt business. 1t was supposed popu-
larry to be the q convenient house
year possible. Now. however. a differ
ent opinion prevails.
1t is the fad now to find in the one
piece house gown the most convenient
garment ever devised. As it is devel-
oped today it is made without a boned
lining. 1t Is held in place by Il three
inch fitted girdle of betting. There is
a body lining of soft china silk. which
keeps the cloth from rubbing against
the skin. The skirt is quite short. fire.
quently very short. and the neck is
finished with a wide Peter Pan collar
of lace or embroidery. Those who
cannot make up their minds to part
with the stock have chemisettes and
lower sleeves made of lace. net or
null. These are mounted on a thin
white muslin waist which is fitted. but
not boned. Never make the mistake
of believing that a chemisette a be
pinned into a frock so that it will be
satisfactory.
The blouse part of this frock is
or small plaits. The fastening is usu-
ally in the back. except in the case of
the frocks that are fastened at the
left side of the front. The sleeves are
made long and are entirely of the ma
terial or have a lower half sleeve of
tucked net or other contrasting mate
rial.
The skirt is cut with a slightly high
waist and is Joined to the blouse un-
der a fitted band of the material or a
girdle of soft satin sloping upward un-
der the arms toward the middle of the
back.
The fabrics used in the construction
of these little costumes are legion. but
the favorites are soft wooden mate
rails. worsteds. shepherds plaids and
foulards. They may be trimmed in a
variety of ways. bands of embroidery,
braid or pipings In silk or satin all be-
ing used. The yokes are of silk, net.
chiffon cloth or lace. as may be pre-
ferred.
The yoke has come to stay. The rea-
son it has obtained such a hold on the
affections of womankind is because in
some form or another it seems to be
necessary to enable most women to
appear at their best. Heavy or dark
materials carried up to the face line
are almost always unbecoming. They
may sometimes be worn that way on
aceauptQta-yagary- OF the-mede-h but
everybody is glad when they give place
to the universally becoming yoke.

and what is known as the subyoke. !.
