CHANGE IN SLEEVE STYLES
Are Distinctly Shorter, and the Pos
SCISSORS of Pretty Arms Accord
ingIy Pleased.

After the long sleeves of other
days. it is to be hailed with joy by the
possessors of pretty arms that short
ones are here. They extend to the
elbow, or halfway between elbow and
wrist, but the stamp of this season
is in the length.
There is, of course. the long sleeve
for those who insist upon a certain
individuality in costume; but this
style is not the long unbroken line to
which we have been accustomed.
There must be suggestion of the
short length given by bands across
the arm, or by deep cuffs and puffs.
Trimming can be used in plaques or
horizontal lines to cut the long arm
line into the divisions that are en-
phasized in the spring fashions.
Ruffles of pleating and lace are used
edge the short sieeves-in fact. the
'ulness that is evidenced in other
ines of dresa is felt in the sleeve con-
tructior.

REFORMERS LAMBLASTED
Calls Head of National Bureau the
Worst CRATER and Fakir Who
Ever Visited Akron.

Akron, O.-Dr. Wilbur F. Curtis,
head of the National Reform bu-
reau of Washington, was called the
worst CRATER and fakir who ever Wis
tied the city by Mayor w. T. Sawyer
at a public conference with Crafts and
a delegation from the Mems Fedora
tion of clubs when the reformers de-
manded a stricter enforcement of the
laws.
Crafts called the mayor liar, per-
jurer and violator of his oath and de-
clared that his police court is a
farce, that illegal houses are protect
ed and that gambling is wide open.
In a written reply Mayor Sawyer
later declared Crafts to be no gentle
man, that he made his statements for
cheap publicity and sordid gain and
that he is a professional moral wave
promoter at so much wave.

FIXING OVER THE PARAS0L

Fix up last seasons parasol In ad-
vance, and listen now to a note or
the season before you venture on this
timely renovation.
Fringe to match or to harmonic Is
the fresh touch to be added in lmlta-
ton of the newest.
It is the Misunderstanding twisted
silk fringe, ranging in width from one
to three and half inches and having
fussy little gimp border, which
there is no effort to conceal.
After the parasol has been cleaned
with a soft brush or sponge dipped in
gasoline (do 1t in the open air) and al
lowed to dry, still wide open, the
fringe is basted upon the edge and
sewed by hand with silk to match.
All of the work is done upon the
open parasol.
Some slight embroidery, like a row
of polka dots, may be done where
fringe joins the parasol. They are
put on in the fat Japanese stitch
and If of a contrasting color there
should not be chosen a note that Is
too strikingly different.
The conspicuous parasol is not nee
essarily the most beautiful.

ETNA ERUPTION INCREASES
Fifteen Craters Are Sending Forth
Huge Streams of LaVa-vil-
lagos Are Ruined.

Rome.-The eruption of Mount Etna
is increasing in violence hourly. Fif-
teen new craters, opening laterally,
are sending forth blue and gold
flames, burning cinders and melted
lava, accompanied by terrific earth
quake shocks and violent explosions.
A black and scarlet stream of lava,
1000 feet wide and seven miles long,
is flowing down the mountain side at
the rate of % yards an hour, doing
enormous damage. Nicolosi, a small
but prosperous town two hours climb
from Catania, appears to be doomed.
Borello and Belpasso, their suburbs,
are entirely deserted, the inhabitants
and the shepherds streaming down to
Catania.
No loss of life has been reported as
yet, but the property damage is Inn
mense. Entire villages are ruined
financially.

OHIO NEWS ITEMS
DEATH is CAUSED BY ERROR
Gunpowder Kills Cleveland Man Is-
norant of Compound Sent Him
for Pulverizing.

Cleveland, O.-Not knowing that
a chemical compound sent him
by a friend was gunpowder, Patrick
Dowd, AZ, attempted to pulverize 1t In
a mortar at the Grasselli chemical
works, and was almost instantly killed
in an explosion which followed. The
death of Dowd was the result OF
mistake in the transmission of a mes
sage from Charles Vilm, through two
other men. to the dead man.
Vilm, who has grocery and
butcher shop, wanted some pulverized
gunpowder to cure a delivery horse OF
skin disease. He went to a store
and purchased granulated powder.
As he formerly worked in the Gras-
selli chemical works, he decided to
have Dowd pulverize the powder for
his use. George Bowers, II, neigh
Dor, was asked by Vilm to take the
package to his father. who works at
the Grasselli plant, who, in turn, was
to deliver it to Dowd. Whether Vilm
told him that the package contained
gunpowder is not known. Vilm says
he did, While the BOY states thaL ne
didn't know what was in the bag, and
gave it to his father simply with the
request that he have Dowd pulverize
it for Vilm.
The father gave Dowd the package,
saying that Vilm wanted it pulverized.
Having a few minutes to spare, Dowd
took the powder into laboratory, a
small frame structure set apart from
the main building of the Grasselli con-
cern. Dowd was alone when he start
ed to work. A few minutes later en-
ployes about the main building heard
loud explosion, accompanied by a
sound of breaking glass. Six of them
ran to the laboratory, out of which a
sitting smoke was pouring, and found
Dowd lying on the floor.

MAN SLAIN IN TRAIN BRAWL
Passenger Dies After Leaving the Car
Fellow Traveller Held
for Murder.

Alliance. O.-Frank Woodfiil was
arrested here on the charge OF
killing Frank Champers in a fight on
board a Wheeling & Lake Erie pas
senger train on the way from Canton
to Del Roy Woodfill was riding in
the smoking car which was crowded
with passengers. Many of them, he
says, were drinking and fighting. He
charges that Champers called him an
ugly name and asserts that he then
struck Champers. Woodfill left the
train at Del Roy.
When Carrollton was reached, the
conductor found Champers dazed in
the vestibule of a coach. He was as
sisted off the train and started for his
home. Champers was found dead on
a board pile at the, edge of his yard
in Carrollton. An investigation
showed the man had met death from
a blow that fractured his skull. Wood
fill was arrested in this city where he
had secured work. He was taken to
Carrollton by Sheriff Arbaugh.

DENOUNCES 'STANDPATTERS;
James r. Garfield Declares Party 10y
atty Does Not Mean Blind Adher-
ence to Old Traditions.

Cleveland, ON bitter denunci-
alton of the "standpatters" and
their policies James r. Garfield, in an
address before the Tippecanoe club
here, sounded note of warning to
the Republican party. When the
party fails to be progressive said
Mr.. Garfield, "its usefulness begins to
wane."
Theodore Roosevelts name was not
mentioned by the former secretary OF
the interior and neither President
Taft nor the Ohio gubernatorial situa-
ton was touched upon in his speech.
Mr.. Garfield told of the dangers of the
"standpatters' position and declared
that party loyalty does not mean blind
adherence to old traditions. I'VE can
not deceive ourselves with the idea
that the people will be satisfied with
the mere repetition of promises; they
demand and are entitled to action,
he declared.

Columbus, O.-Legislation providing
for scientific investigation of
Ohio canals will be recommended by
the senate public works committee. A

structing a barge canal or canals and
abandoning the property as water
ways. An appropriation of 100000 to
$4,000 will be provided.
The committee here considered bills
for this purpose by Senators Huff

! HAT STAND EASY TO MAKE
Contrivance That viii Add Much to
Comfort of Life In the Summer
Cottage.

For the summer cottage there are
many new contrivances to make liv.
ing more comfortable. Among them
is a long rod on stand and with a
soft cushion on the top, intended as a
resting place for big straw hat.
These new hat stands are not at
all the kind one sees at the milliners.
Far from it. They are really quite or.
nate in their way, bound with soft
cretonne or printed sateen, whichever
best goes with the hangings of the
room, while the cushions at the top
are covered and edged with lace
ruffles.
Sometimes the whole stand is GOV.
cred with brocaded satin, trimmed
with gold lace and hung with those
French ribbon flowers. Or again
white linen is used and the cushion
top is embroidered. Like everything
else, they may be as costly as one
could wish and they add greatly to the
femininity of the dress closet.

CARELESS BOY CAUSES FIRE
lgnites 8enzine While Filling Cigar
LIghter-severaI Persons Are Miss
inq-Ten Bodies Recovered -
Woman Jumps to Her Death.

Chicago.-Fire Friday wrecked the
six-story building Of the L. Fish Furni-
ture Company at the corner of Wabash
avenue and Nineteenth street, and IL
persons at least and may be IS, died
in the flames.
Ethel Lichtenstein, stenograapher,
plunged to her death from sixth
story window; ten bodies have been
taken from the ruins, and a number
of employees are missing, and, It
is feared, are dead.
1t was a fire of remarkable fierce
ness, marked by unusual horror and
remarkable escapes. The fire depart
ment was bitterly criticised for slow
ness in responding to the first alarm,
and still more fatal slowness in try
ing to reach the men and women en-
Gagged by flames on the sixth floor.
These charges were denied by Chief
Horan, who pointed out that the build
ing had no fire escape in front and
only one in the rear.
The financial loss is put at 100000.
There we're forty or fifty employees
in the building when report of an
explosion was heard, followed almost
instantly by puff of smoke and some
ones wild cry of Fire"
In the general Offices and mailing
department on the sixth floor were 20
men and women preparing for the
days work. At the first alarm some
rushed for the stairways, while 9TH
ers delayed to lock up the office
books. This delay, it Is believed
caused the death of a number.
Before the first firemen could run
Lichtenstein appeared at the sixth
story window facing In Wabash ave
nue.. She climbed out on the window
sill while fremen shouted not to jump
and women in the crowd of spectators
shrieked in horror.
The girl hesitated a moment; there
was burst of smoke from below her
and then she jumped to her death.
What befell those who are nov
listed as missing, in the few minutes
of horror after the alarm reached
them, may never be known. The ont
or two who did escape from the sixth
floor were saved by remarkable goot
luck and the presence of mind of EN-
ployes on the first floor of the build
ing.

GOES TO DENY He is DEAD
Toledo Man Returns from Canada to
Tell Mother Her Identification
Of Body Was Wrong.

Toledo, O.-Few have had the eX-
perience of reading their own obitu-
ary. Such a one is Walter Shean of
Toledo, who came all the way from
Cobalt, Ont, to deny that he is dead.
Last November, a man was found
dead in bed in a Detroit rooming
house. The body was evidently that
of bricklayer. That's Walter Shean's
trade. The body was that of a man
of about 45. That's Walter Shean's
age. Then there were the height,
the hair, the eyes and certain scars.
The body was identified at Detroit by
Shean's mother and other relatives,
1t was brought to Toledo for burial.

Cleaning HANDBAGS.

The handbag or satchel of undressed
kid. when soiled by usage, need not
necessarily be turned over to the pro.
fessional cleaner. The secret of restor-
alton is piece of sandpaper rubbed
over the surface. A very fine grade
of sandpaper is required. When this
is used with care the effect is magical
and no injury to the material accrues.
Many kinds of feathers without pol.
ished surfaces-for example, suede.
undressed and oOze calfskin-can be
cleaned thus.

URGE NATIONAL LABOR PARTY
President Gompers and Other Leaders
Afraid that Unions Will be
Banished from Country.

Washington, D. C.-The formation
of a national labor party in the
United States similar to the party of
that name in England is the plan Of
some of the officials of the American
Federation of Labor, the executive
council of which is in session in Wash.
ington. An alliance with the Farm
ers' Union is being planned by the
leaders of the two organizations.
President Gompers and several
other members of the council are urg-
ing the formation of a national labor
party. They contend that, following
events in which labor has figured in
the last three years, it will be but
short time until organized labor is
banished from this country.

more in demand and the higher in
price is it.
Thus, as geese are fattened in the
Italian Tyrol and in France to pre-
pare the pate de fois gras, so in the
Igorrote country the dog is famished
to the point OF starvation so as to
keep it thin, poor and with bones bare.

mai tough 1t thus serves as chew
ing cud, like unto dry or strong beef
in America.
So hundreds and hundreds of dogs
of every stripe and color, kind and
bred. yoked together as may be seen
oxen in America, are brought by their
owners to the market.
Here the sellers bargain and trade,
always to the point of getting the
most for the thinnest dog, which is ap-
parently the toughest. The women
sit in silence, a virtue of the Igorrote
woman, or in soft tones bargain bits
Of cloth and smoke big black cigars
as they trade and prattle. The women
keep the money of the house.
In the distance just beyond Is the
settlement of more than a thousand
years OF existence which Prof. Fred
erick Starr of Chicago has attractive
ly described. Here the natives have
had for years and years the practice
and creed of trial marriage, just as
shown in the Balkans, in one OF the
Russian provinces. Here can be seen
in system and discipline the trial
marriage of which George Meredith
wrote. Others who lately have sur
feited our yearning on this point could
have learned much from this exam
pie.
These people say that the Chinese
Malay of thousand years ago taught
them this method, and that 1t came
from Israel and Greece. The method
is this: The woman chooses the man
the man can bid, but he cannot force
his acceptance. If the woman is salts
fed, she keeps him, and then he doe'
no work. II children come he con
tributes, but in nowise maintains thu
household. Should she conclude to re
ject him, he must go elsewhere, bu
before departing she takes every yes
tige of money or property he ever pos
sessed. Should he try to hide any o
it the disclosure of such fact deprive
him of the hope of any other womal
proposing to him.
The children are at the sole dispos
ton of the mother. Never but by he
consent can a child go to the father
or but by the child running away an
swearing on the ak to take the neI
mother. Then the real mother cuts
out of her heart by gashing her breas
with knife.
IL is reported that not more tha
ten out of 500 trial marriages resul
in any disadvantage to either col
tracing party or to children. In mos
instances the marriage following tn
, trial has proved eminently satisfa,
, tory. The husband has been CAREFUL
a supported and has no complaint wit
. the manner in which his affairs are d
!. rected by his wife. If he works as
). pastime it is quickly disclosed that
is only for his amusement or for o.
n tanning a little provision with whic
: he can obtain a new wife or be in d
!. mand by new applicant in event
the death of his spouse-or his d
} vorcing her for failure to suppo
n him.

Distinguished Clergyman Refuses to
Declare Book Is Inerrant
and lnfaIlible.

l do not believe that the Bible is
inerrant and infallible. 1t never
claims for itself to be inerrant and in
faIlible. and ] decline to claim for it
what 1t does not claim for itself. One
of my correspondents asks me wheth-
er we shall teach our children that
the Bible is like the Arabian Nights. %
My answer is, we. should teach our
children that the Bible is a collection
of literature which contains some his
tory. some law. some poetry and
drama fiction. We should teach our
children the difference between fact
and truth. and enable them to see
clearly that fiction may be and often
is as valuable vehicle for truth a.
fact.
Thus. as the value of the story oi
the prodigal son does not depend upon
the question whether there ever were
such father and two such boys. &c
