Harmful Styles In Woman's Dress.

ElaT SkflSo II
The following extract is clipped from
a recent editorial in the Ladies Home
Journal, and pity it's, It's true" That
mems position of Difference toward
women is changing admits Of no ques-
ton. 1t Is noticeable on every hand.
But let women quietly ponder and
ask why is it," and they will find
that the insidious loss Of respect IS
based on the little things that men
have always associated with them and
that women are losing sight of-the
feminine f~oolishnesses that are sadly
growing on modern girls and women.
Small In themselves, yes, but now 1t
Is one small thing, and then 1t is an
other, and after awhile the whole
mess of small things becomes a for
midable mass, and gradually the est-
nation that has received a succession
Of constant little jars is found to have
become weakened. Believe it or not
as women may, that is where the two
sexes stand today in America, and it
is a position neither pleasant nor de-
sirable. Women are pulling them
selves down slowly, but none the less
surely, in the eyes of men by their
growing tendency to place the empha-
sis on the things that are not worth
while. The women who represent the
best of American w~omanhood recog-
nize this condition and deplore it just
as much as do the men, and 1t is a
grievous pity that the sensible portion
of American women have not more in
iuence on that larger majority of the
sex who are today playing with their
greatest source Of protection, the re-
spect of men.

CAPTAIN Kids Grave.

Most children know the story Of
Captain Kidd. the pirate who sailed
and sailed" but few children, or
grown folks, for that matter, know
that there is a grave in the quaint old
city Of Savannah that is said to be
the resting place Of this bold sailor
man" The tombstone was erected in
the night, and no one seems to know
anything about it except the legend
concerning 1t. There is no inscription
on it; nothing but a circling serpent
on all four sides.

robbery as metive for the murder
of Mrs. Alice Burnham, her daughter
Alice, aged and her son, John, aged
3 years, and Mr.. and Mrs. Henry F.
Wayne, found dead in their homes
yesterday, authorities here hold the
theory that the crime was committed
by some enemy of one, if not both, of
the families.
The two families, who lived in ad.
joining houses, were murdered with
an axe while they were sleeping in
their beds, indications pointing to the
crime having been committed Sun

GAR WRECKS A ROMANCE
Forces Brother to Give Up Sweetheart
and Her Face to Be MARRIED.

anu dSC " DC "diTSus
st. Petersburg, Sept. Git is re-
ported that the most beautiful face
in all Russia has been hopelessly
marred by command of the car, in
l.rder that tie Grand Duke Michael,
the cars only brother, might be re-
stored to the honors which he for
feited through his infatuation for the
face.
The story is replete with romance,
intrigue and statecraft in which the
car, the grand duke and the beauti-
full Ekatarina, girl of high social
standing but not of the royal blood,
play the principal roles. When the
grand dukes infatuation with Ekat-
arina first became known to the czar
he was very much incensed. Soon
afterward Ekatarina married a rich
Moscow banker, Mamontoff, and the
affair with Michael passed from the
indulgent brother to the province of
the holy synod, chief authority of the
orthodox church. Mamontoff is the
richest man in Moscow, the town of
Russian millionaires, where Ekatar-
mas parents likewise are leaders in
society.
Mamontoff quickly developed the
jealous temperament of an Othello,
and watched his wife like a Turk.
Love making between Michael and
Ekatarina was reduced to the ex-
change of burning letters, but when
spies delivered one of the dukes mis-
sives to the banker, he gave an ex-
plosion of wrath that startled Mos
COW society.
Mamontoff was not only jealous,
but brutal. Winding Ekatarina' S
blond tresses around his arm, he drag
ged her on the floor of her boudoir
demanding all letters that the grand
duke had sent her before and after
the marriage. When he got them, aft
err many denials, attended by tears
and protestations, he beat her like
mujk," and threw her out of doors
The matter was taken to the czar and
patched up. One night, however
Mamontoff returned Unexpectedly and
found the grand duke in his wife's
boudoir He assaulted his imperial
highness with bitter words.
Taking Ekatarina in his arms
Michael ran into the street, followed
by the banker.

and lash her through the streets Of
Moscow, according to the old Gus

you will do nothing of the kline
replied the grand duke, 'and the holy
synod will give you a divorce"
And a divorce the banker obtained
Michael then wed Ekatarina morgan
atically. This coming to the cars
knowledge, the girl was sent to Holy
Trinity cloister. Her lovely hair, eye
brows and eyelashes were cut off, ant
the duke was sent to Orel.

Montreal, Sept. 21.-Canada is hold
ing today the heaviest vote in it's his
tory, to register it's decision as to
whether the government and recipro-
city are to be endorsed or defeated.
In all the ten provinces polling
booths We're opened at o'clock and
will close at o'clock this afternoon.
The Australian ballot system prevails
throughout the dominion. Even in the
smallest constituencies an hour will
be required for the counting of the
votes, so no result will be known be-
fore 6 o'clock. AS many rulings are
very large and their population is
widely scattered, results in them will
not be learned until after midnight.
However, unless the decision is very
close, enough constituencies probably
will have been heard from before 10
O'Clock to indicate accurately the
general result.
Today's vote is being taken in PA
of the 221 constituencies. Seven are
not voting. Three of these counties
gave their decision on nomination day
week ago, returning government sup.
porters by reclamation. In the re.
naming four, owing to wilderness con.
ditions which retard official election,
voting has been deferred two weeks
When the polls were opened this
morning there were crowds at every
booth waiting to vote. Both sides
