on the outside have concluded that there
is some reason like this which has
caused the constant guard to be kept
on. In fact, even while the Bryant
religious meeting progresses, in the
Administration building Sundays, and
the danger from fire is nothing, guards
for Voliva are parading about the big
structures. The same is true of the
smaller buildings.
Even the men who hold big positions
IN the various buildings take their
turns guarding them, the work being
passed among them so it reaches some
only once in three or four weeks TO act
as guard. Voliva himself never acts as
guard but some men high up in his ad-
ministration are seen performing the
tedious job.
The whole matter goes to show the
feeling of suspicion which prevails in
the unhappy city. It is a case where
Voliva evidently doesn t trust the OPP
position even to the extent that he will
leave his buildings alone for a moment.
He evidently suspects them as possible
thieves, possible incendiaries, etc.
Watchmen have been kept in the
big buildings in the past, under Dowie,
ETC., but never has the system of guard
ing them been carried to the fine point
that it now is.

LONG SWATS WIN FOR kENOSHA
Smith and Betz Both Pitch Good
Games But the Local Pitcher Man
aged To Keep the Hits Scattered
Locals Play Without Erroc.

Kenosha won the first of the series
of base ball games with the Waukegan
team on Sunday afternoon by a score
of to 2 and the showing made by the
two teams seems to indicate that the
Kenosha team will have little trouble
annexing the series. The next game
will be played at Kenosha on Sunday
and the last game of the series at
Waukegan on the afternoon of Labor
Day. A large crowd of Kenosha fans
went to Waukegan and witnessed the
defeat of the Waukegan team. The
local team had the lead in the game
from the start and there never was a
time when Waukegan was dangerous.
a gift to the Waukegan players just to
keep them in line for the next two
games. Smith pitched for Kenosha and
while the Waukegan batters got eight
hits off him he kept them so badly
scattered they failed to give the Wau-
kegan players runs to win In addition
to this the Kenosha team played like
stone wall behind Smith and nothing
got by any of the men. In fact the
Kenosha infeld played with such bril-
lance that the Waukegan hit column
was materially reduced. Betz who
pitched for Waukegan proved to be
some twirler and he allowed the Keno
sha boys but seven hits but they were
long hits, Whyte, Sage and Cleary get
ting two base hits and King who was
playing in his home town came through
with three Dagger which aided ma
terially in the scoring. Kenosha got
two runs in the second and this took
the heart out of the Waukegan bunch.
One more in the fourth and a brace of
two IN the fifth put the game out of
danger. The Waukegan team made
their only runs in the fifth and seventh
innings when the game seemed out of
danger so far as the Kenosha boys were
concerned. The Waukegan fans turned
out in large numbers and it is certain
that big bunch of the fans will come
to Kenosha on next sunday for the
second game of the series. The line up
for the teams on next sunday will be
the same as yesterday.

Census Director Durand Els
Inmates Population, Based
ON Tabulated Returns
SURPRISING GROWTH IN CITIES

Director Durand of the census bureau
estimates the population of the United
States at about 90,000,000. This esti-
mate is BASED on the returns so far
tabulated and does not include the
Philippines. With the latter included
the figures, he says, will be close to
the 100,000,000 mark. The tabulation
is expected to be finished by Nov. 10.
cit is only a rough guess said
Director Durand, "but [ believe the
returns will show there is a population
of 90,0OOO0O in the country, not count
ing the Philippines. 1t may run up to
81 900, 900, but doubt it. If the popu-
lation of the Philippines be included
the figures will be close to the 100000
900 mark.
81 expect the tabulation to be com
pleted by Nov. Is and Immediately af-
terward we will be able to announce
the population of the country.
"The net gain from immigration dur
ing the last ten years has not been 50
large as would be supposed. For ex-
ample immigration from 1901 to 1907
into the United States was only 6,219,-
900 in round numbers. Of this mum
Der 100000 returned to the countries
from which they came, leaving a total
increase in population from immigra
tion during those years of only 1922
000
"The figures for the three years
from 1907 to 1910, show 2,567,OO i'm
migrants came into the United States
and 790,S75 returned. larger proper
tionate increas in total populations from
immigration occurred in the last three
years than in the previous seven years.
'tTaking the ten years net increase,
it will be seen that approximately g.
100000 persons have been added to
the population of the country by i'm
migration since the last census. Pos
sibly 100000 of these have died in
this time.
eve have been surprised at the
population of cities of 100000 and
more, since the figures of many of
these have been announced. The per-
centage of increase since the last cen
sus of these cities is more than 20
per cent.
"Whether or not the country dis
tricts will show such percentage of
increase we do not know yet. Some
believe the rapid rate of increase of
the large cities is caused by population
drawn from the country districts and
when the compilation of these dis
tricts is completed they may show a
much smaller increase than the cities

GUARDS FOR ZION
Voliya Takes No Chance of
Having Independents Put
Anything Over On Him
MEN GUARD vOLivES STORES

A fact of interest and not generally
known IS that Overseer Voliva has a
constant guard in every building he
controls in Zion City.
Day and night, Sundays and holidays,
guard marches about every building,
watching it with great care.
1t is explained that the guards are
kept on SO strictly as a precaution
against fire but ordinarily buildings
don't have to be watched day-times,
Sundays and other times, in fear of
fire, that is, in che average public
building of the average city.
Thus, the question is, why does Voliya
guard his buildings so carefully? Is
he afraid that some Of his enemies will
break into them and cause damage,
steal his private papers, etc.? Those

Anton. Rcdello, Kenosha Italian Arrest
ed in Milwaukee After Chase.

Anton Rodello % years of age, Keno
sha Italian was arrested in Milwaukee
on Monday afternoon under unusual cir
cumstances Rodello was on his way
TO the railway station to come to Keno
sha but as result of the work of
Jack" a faithful dog owned by
Partolman Sullivan of the Milwaukee
police force the Kenosha Italian made
compulsory trip to the House of
Correction and he will stay there for
thirty days.
Rodello had been one of the partici-
pants in fight on the street in Mil
waukee and the fight was not strictly
under the Marquis Of Queensbury rules.
Rodello was about to land Jack johnson
knock out on his opponent when Officer
Sullivan broke into the ring and started
something along different lines. The
two men were punching each other with
great vigor when the officer arrested
and collared Rodello. The crowd dis
persed with the coming of the officer
and the Kenosha Italian being some
thing of an athlete wrenched himself
free from the grip of the officer and
started to run for the station. The
officer followed him but Rodello was
gaining rapidly and it was at this stage
of the game that "Jack' the officer S
dog who had been watching the pro-
ceedings and howled his glee at the
efforts of his master took a nand in
the game. When he saw that the pris
oner was escaping JACK turned a panied
expression at his master and then dart
ed after the fleeing Kenoshan. In a
block the dog had managed to catch the
Italian and giving one leap he made
for the flying coat tails of the fleeing
Italian. In an effort to shake off the
dog Rodello rolled into the street but
the dog had clamped a hold on the
coat tails of the prisoner that nothing
could shake off and he held on until
his master arrived and called the wagon
and Rodello was taken to Jail.
When arraigned in court Rodello
pleaded "Guilty" to the charge against
him and drew thirty day term at the
house of correction. Faithful Jack
went with the prisoner until he saw him
safely behind the bars.

FIND STOLEN HARNESS.
Police Recover Harness stolen From H.
Rolof But Horse Is Still Missing.

The police have secured a clew, but
one of little value for the solution of
the mystery attending the theft of the
horse of Herman Roloff on last Sunday
night One of the sets of harness
stolen from the Relof barn together
with a canvas taken by the thieves
was found under bridge on the Ash
land avenue road just north of the
village of Winthrop Harbor on Satur-
day evening. The harness had been
carefully wrapped in the canvas and it
is thought possible that the thief may,
return for it. The bridge is being
watched by the officials at Winthrop
Harbor. 1t is supposed that the thief
drove south along the Ashland avenue
road and fearing that the extra set
of harness might attract suspicion he
left it under the bridge The police
are doubling their efforts to locate and
arrest the thief.

MANTLE USED IN MANY FORMS
Transparent Wrap Has Caught the
Fancy of Fashion, and ls Surely
Here to Stay.

Chiffon, marquisette, silk wolfe, or
any other material that has not
warmth, but a beautiful transparent
color, Is now used ror outer wraps
that may not be useful If the primary
use of dress be considered, but they
are decidedly beautiful, which is their
own excuse for being.
Nantes of beautiful hues fall like
clouds around the forms of their for
tunate wearers. They are weighted
with heavy fringe, silk or beaded. or
they are adorned with marathon or
heavy oriental embroidery.
The shapes are so varied that were
any attempt made to describe these
mantles there would be no end. Suf-
flee it to say that all lengths, degrees
of fulness, variations of the lower
line and disposition of ends are al
lowable. the individuality of the de-
signer coming into play as the de-
Gliding voice.
The effect Of these transparent
wraps over the filmy evening gowns
of the season is indescribable. Mere
man might ridicule and scorn the idea
of o chiffon cloak, but faunt one Of
these before the sensible creature, and
If he have an appreciation Of the
beautiful he will uphold you In your
choice of lovely accessory.

SOME PARTISAN C0lFFUkEs |
Tendency Now Shows a Less Close
Mass Of Hair Surmounted by
an Aigreete.

We turn to Paris for the prevail
ing couture, and in turning we find
slight but noticeable changes.
The present tendency Is toward q
less close mass of hair to which an
aigrette or plume adds height. This
decoration is here shown worn with
q jeweled band Of ribbon, which may
be gold or silver or color studded
with brilliants or with iridescent
gems, according to the gown.
Particularly appropriate for the
young girl is the wreath of roses worn
with a not-too-fiat couture, but q
simple one. Leaves are often subst-
tuted for the roses and to good effect.
With two winged ends of black vel.
vet, altogether suitable for an older
woman, is that broad band of black
tulle wired along its edges and
studded with jet
And last we recommend for the
more youthful one simple fllet OF
gold or silver gauze, with at each end
q large rose, made of cloth of gold
or silver.
Time was when the young girl
looked overdressed with her hair in
a flllet unless it was very simple
affair, indeed; but fashions have be.
come so much more elaborate that,
with little discrimination, it is quite
possible to single out many simple
enough hair ornaments for the youth
full face.

Girls and Their Figures.

Stiff corsets are unknown in France.
French corsets are always supple and
.bendable, and this accounts much for
the ease OF French figures, which are
never frightened except at the waist,
leaving the bust and hips quite free.
II the figure is frightened in too much
at the bust and hips, 1t gives too
straight a look to the figure and
makes It stiff and uncomfortable
movement being rendered ungraceful
by this stiffness. Let any girl try to
lace her corset only at the waist and
let her select it as soft and light as
possible, and then see If her figure be
not as graceful in shape as the French
figure.
No tight, straight down, even lacing
will ever make a pretty figure. II the
corset cannot be made expressly to
suit the figure, then let it only be
laced in the middle OF the waist Even
then no real corset should be worn by
girls until they are well in their teens
