nOBBLELESS HOBBLE
Il: IS latest fashion

Chicago, Dec. AT last the hobble
, less hobble has been invented! 1t
looks like a hobble skirt, it feels like
hobble skirt, it costs like a hobble
skirt-but it doesn't hObble.
The successor to the hobble skirt
is a deceptive and dainty bit OF fem
mime wearing apparel which, to the
eye of the merely superficial observer,
would prevent anything more strenu'
GUS than six inch steps, but let a
holdup man, an automobile or an en-
ragged bull give chase to the Wearer
of the new skirt and the mistake will
become apparent at once.
The moment the wearer decided to
put on full head of steam and make
top speed the lower portion OF the
skirt opens up like an accordian and
gives the fullest possible freedom OF
movement.
The new garment was exhibited for
the first time at the closing session
of the National Skirt, Cloak and Suit
Manufacturers association in the Ho'
tel La Sale yesterday afternoon.
1t was worn by numerous models
who showed al The possibilities OF
the deceptive 'rhobble' by hopping,
skipping and jumping about the par
lors OF the hotel for the edification
OF the retail men, who applauded the
invention.
And here's the secret: Down in the
lower extremity of the skirt, where
the deadly hobble formerly was con-
cealed, are hundred of small pleats
that are nearly invisible to the eye.
They are pressed into the skirt with
the tailor's heavy irons and steam.
They are designed that they will re-
main tightly pressed togethed except
when long strides are necessary. Then
| they allow freedom OF movement
and a show of speed never dreamd
of with tn original hObble skirt.
Anoth means of making the same
skirt is to gore it at the bottom. The
chief object, it was explained by the
designers of women's fashions, was
to prevent anything approaching a
| flare at the bottom.
Oother garments shown at the eX'
hibition proved that stright lines were
the thing for the coming season.

tn Bring MURDERERS
Of INDIANS TO trial

Washington, D. c., Dec. 7-Fourteen
| Shoshone Indians are supposed tc
! have been killed and their bodies
, with those of their horses, to have
been buried in two trenches in Elk
county, Nevada. according to a COM
munication sent to the department OF
Justice by r. Barley Lee, prosecuting
attorney for Cassius county, Idaho,
who seeks to have the department aid
in bringing the murderers, who are
said to be white horse thieves, to
justice.
The attorney writes that his in
formers are three Indians, whose
wives and children were among those
Slaughtered by write men, and their
remains concealed and buried" Coin
cident with the reports of the MUIR
der, according to Attorney Lees let
ter, three bad characters disappeared
from the vicinity of the crime, one of
whom brought the first report of a
crime having been committed.
Rumors of the massacre drifted into
Albion, Idaho, last July, according to
Mr.. Lee. Upon investigation an old
wagon and two trenches, hastily cov-
cred, it is said, were found. The
trenches, it is alleged, contained a
number of carcasses, probably those
of horses, and it is supposed that the
bodies of the Indians were beneath
them. 1t was evident, according to
Mr.. Lee, that the horses had been led
to the edge of the trench and shot.
Mr.. Lee, in his letter, says he has
brought the matter to the attention
of the department for the reason that
there has been little activity on the
part of the Nevada officials to bring
the slayers to justice. This condi-
+ ton, he says, has caused feeling of
encouragement among the Indians of
that territory.

TEXAS MAKING
GREAT STRIDES

Washington, D. c., Dec. 1.-THE pop
ulation of Texas is 3,S96,542 according
to the thirteenth census issued to-
night. This is an increase Of S47,S32
or 27.S per cent over 3,04S,71O in
1900.
The increase from 1890 to 1900 was
S13,1S7 or 1874 per cent. Texas, the
largest state in the union in point Of
area made greater progress in it's in
crease in population during the last
ten years than any of the state which
exceed it in the number of inhabitants
and now takes rank as fifth in popu
lation, passing Missouri. Only New
York, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Ohio
surpass Texas in population while
Missouri goes back to seventh place,
having been passed by Massachusetts,
during the past ten years.

DIR, BAKER MADE
PROVISION FOR
HER RELATIVES

Boston, Mass, Dec. 7.-That Mrs.
Mary Baker Glover Eddy, head of the
Christian Science church, left none
of her estate, estimated at nearly two
million dollars, to relatives, was gath
| cred from remark made tonight by
Judge Chord P. Smith, first reader
of the Mother church, who said:
MRS. Eddy's will is not to be read
tomorrow as it contains absolutely
! nothing which would be of interest
to any of the members of the family
He made no statement as to that
portion of the estate which may go
| to the church.
Three years ago at the time of the
suit by her so-called next friends
Mrs. Eddy set aside trust fund OF
$125, 900 for the benefit of three child
rem of her son George w. Glover, in
Lead, S. D., while later in November,
1909 she made complete settlement
with her heirs with the understanding
it was generally believed, that their
should be no contest over her will
At this time the trust fund was in
creased to $175,OO0 and settlement was
made upon other heirs approximating
1925 1000. Since the death of Mrs. Ed
dy, her son, George w. Glover, has sa
that he would not contest the will
Judge Smith, who will have charge
of the funeral services tomorrow, said
tonight that the casket will not be
opened during the services, it being
preferred to remember Mrs. Eddy as
n life.
The body will be clothed entirely
in white before being placed in the
casket, which is also to be of pure
white.
The services will occupy only half
an hour and will be held in the de-
caying room of her Chestnut Hill
home.
Judge Smith will open with read
ing from the Bible, followed by Sc
lection from Science and Health.
All present will be asked to join in
silent prayer after which the Lords
prayer will be repeated in unison.
Mrs. Carol Hoyt Powers, second
reader at the First church, will then
read Mrs. Eddy's favorite hymn, "A
Mothers Evening Prayer" which will
close the services. There will also be
brief reading from the Bible by Judge
Smith at the receiving tomb in Mount
Auburn cemetery.

She Had Courage.

A self possessed young woman who
knew no French strolled into one Of
the larger downtown cafes. She spoke
to the waiter in that decisive tone
which distinguishes the initiated and
glanced over the French bill of fare
with the nonchalant air Of Pa
risienne
'I'll have" she began firmly as she
plunged into the sea Of French dishes
I'll have-let ME see. Oh, yes. III
have some bisque torfbni sultana
roll pommes dc terre and little of
that frontage. And. garcon. you might
as we'll bring me cup of Coffee
The waiter gasped. lie started to
speak. but the young woman froze him
with one Of those icy stares peculiar
to the thoroughly sophisticated.
And the order arrived-two kinds of
ices. boiled potatoes and piece of
cheese But she ate it us If she had
been used to that sort of diet all her
life.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Washington, D. c.. Dec. Indian
appropriation bill carrying total OF

today by Chairman Burke OF the COM
mittee of Indian affaiff rffffsfffrftn
mittee of Indian affairs. The amount
exceeds the formal estimates Of the
interior department by 14,O53. but is
1915 less than total appropriations
FOR Indian service for the curren fiscal
year. The larger items are:
Survey and allotment work, REIN
bursable in part, $125,0O0.
Irrigation system on Indian reserva.
tons and allotments, 100000.
Irrigation projects, reimbursable,
S625,O0O.

purchases of goods and supplies, $685.,
300.
Educational purposes approXimatine
$3.900.OO0.
Provision for treaty stipulation other
than educational, 996,56O.
The bill provides for the capitaliza
ton of annuites in pursuance OF
agreement concluded with the Oneida
tribe of Indians of Wisconsin on Jan
uary 4. 1909 on the basis of 5 pei
cent and requiring an appropriation OF
$4,000.
The result of this capitalization will
be to eliminate the Wisconsin One

nations of New York which appropria
tons hereafter will be reduced an
nually by $1,000.

READING THE FLASHES.
Lighthouses Are Open Books to tho
Experienced Mariner.

Passengers are generally astonished
when on dark night they hear the
ships officer remark to another,
'There's Egg rock" or "Crabtrea
LEDGE or Beaver Tail" as the case
may be. naming some headland o.
shoal along the coast. The landlub-
Der strains his eyes, and far away
there appears from time to time
flash of light, red or white. AS these
flashes seem to the passenger exactly
like those from hundreds of other light
houses, he is astonishcd at the officers
assurance.
1t is really very easy matter to dis
tinguish the American lighthouses and
lightships. of which there are about
1900 along the Atlantic and gulf
coasts if one is possessed Of copy OF
the code issued by the lighthouse
board Every light is known by the
fixed light. the duration Of fash. the
length Of the eclipse or the number OF
flashes shown in groups. No light
! houses within hundred miles Of each
other are ever similar in these par
| ticulars. For instance, one guidepost
| of the sea may flash a white light
every fifteen seconds. never varying
while the next flashes red light every
| five seconds. The third may be an
alternate red and white flash, with In
tervals of ten seconds between the
flashes and so on. The audible fog
signals are identified by the time be-
tween the blasts Of the siren and the
continuance of the blast.
Flashing lights are preferred to fixed
lights for the reason that fixed l1gh'
might be confused with some othe'
light on shore. Only white and rec
lights are considered desirable in light
houses, since it has been found thai
the rays from lights Of other colors
cannot be seen at so great distance
There is but one green light-a fixet
one-on the Atlantic coast.-Harper''
Weekly.
