The Ferd Marx Store

The Ferd Marx store has scored another decided triumph The brilliant autumn and fall opening yesterday proved veri- table revelation to femininity.
 Never before has this popular shop ap preached the wonderful completeness of this unparalleled exhibition and the handsome decorations which greeted the scores of visitors upon entering the main floor where a beautiful display of dress goods including silks and woolen fabrics, laces, embroideries, garnitures, hair goods, veils. gloves. wash goods and mo- tions, to the millinery salon on the sec ond floor made gorgeous display.
 The matchless beauty of the millinery this season was commented upon by the thousands of women who saw the dis play yesterday, and while the most emil nent Paris milliners have sent their crea- tons to us through this medium, some of the choicest models shown were the inspiration of the designers who have been employed by this shop this season.
 ''Captivating,' ''chic'' and Unusually smart" were the expressions passed upon the many creations" seen and the open ing day of their autumn and winter fashions was distinct victory.
 One of the most handsome models shown was from Georgette, fashioned along the lines of the new high-crown turDanS. II was or SlVer net, T1n1Shed at the brim with a band of fur. The trimming was a superb willow plume of Lute brown and white intermingled, and was tastefully arranged.
 Another stunning model was Seal tur- ban which fitted well over the face. A plating of white satin was introduced In the brim and a wreath of white gardenias outlined the crown.
 A Carlier pattern was of black velvet, fashioned after the tam o'shanter crown effect and the brim made of real lace which hung loosely around the face. spray here and there of white clematic and soft bow of black velvet com pleted the chic model
 In the ready-to-wear department one of the most handsome gowns shown was a French model of black marquisette over old blue messaline. The Dutch neck and short sleeves were finished with blue and the bodice was embroidered in Indian bead trimming in white. The over-dress was finished at the knees with a band of the Indian bead trimming and a deep black silk fringe.
 Another handsome model was of black marquisette and gold over kings blue satin. It was elaborately braided in black and touches of gold on the corsage made 1t extremely effective.

There were many callers for the first day or the opening, and there will be more to- day The French room upstairs IS one or the most elegant display rooms in the city with it's mahogany finishing and soft green carpets and tapestries. There was an added charm yesterday when tall potted plants were brought in to beautify the place for the opening, and make a fitting background for the spien- did hats exhibited to the patrons and friends The French trimmed and domes- tic designs were exhibited impartially and vied with each other in beauty or design and coloring.
 One of the handsomest and most be- coming of the Joseph models was a. bronze and gold creation of beaver, vel vet and gold lace. Its trimming of su- perb French plumes in the gold shade gave a gorgeous air to a hat or rare beauty Another from the same salon was deyeloped in black and the new kings blue. It is a tall turban, the high brim of which has a rich blue velvet lining, and dropping over the bell-lfke crown are waving plumes in the rarest shade or blue. A black beaver has the distinction of most of the exclusive new shaped in that 1t has the most becoming droop across the front A bunch of full black willow plumes forms its only trimming. Such hats with the splendid exhibit Of tailored models, garnitured with quills, smart ribbon bows, draperies and plros' leave nothing to be desired and make the display the sum bonum of elegance.

One reason for this is, no doubt, the

where most of the crimes of violence are

NO BLTEFIELDs BLOCKADE.

The question whether a lawful block
ade exists at the Nicaraguan port OF
Blueields should be quite simple and
easily determined. Law and practice on
the subject are unmistakatie, and there
should be no difficulty i'll ascerta3n1ng
whether the conditions essential to va
lidity of the alleged blockade are present
There must be an actual state of war
That doubtless does exist. if factional
bushwhacking is to be dignif1ed with that
name. The declara ton Of blockade must
be made by an actual belligerent, in
either public or civil war. That we may
concede the Madriz government to be.
The third requisite is practical effective
ness That, according to abundant and
authoritative testimony, does not exist.
Pickering 1896 enunciated the prin-
ciple that blockade was valid only when
maintained by q force sufficient to make
attempted entry perilous. Marshall in
1900 declared effectiveness TO be essen
tial, and added that If effectiveness was
temporarily suspended the blockade at
such times became invalid. Madison In
1901 declared that mere liability to
capture by cruisers lowering near port
could not constitute blockade. Monroe
and others q century ago vigorously con-
demned the British attempt to institute
paper blockades, and after the repeal
of Orders in Council and the blockade
of May. 1906, the British government
practically conceded tie illegality of
such "blockades' and thereafter re-
Trained from attempting to establish
them. Clay in 1928 ep1grammatically
summed up the whole matter in the die
tum, "a blockade must execute itself"
1t would be fatuous to pretend that
the blockade" of Bluefelds executes it
self. or is in any reasonable degree eff
fectiye. There is just one little Madriz-
ian cruiser internationally lowering in
the vicinity of that port. It's occasional
presence there does not make entry to
the port perilous. Therefore, an essen
tial condition to valid blockade Is lack
ing, and there is in fact no blockade
which it is incumbent upon any govern
ment to recognize
