POLICE AND STRIKERS IN
BATTLE AT BIRMINGHAM
Industrial War So Serious That
Parliament Decides Not
to Adjourn.

LONDON, Aug. is.-The fight be-
tween the railroad companies and the
striking union employees is on in dead
earnest today. Thousands have Gbeyed
the strike order, and other thouss nds
have continued at work, The COM
panies are operating their principal
trains under modified schedules.
Sharp hand-to-hand fighting be-
tween the police and strikers occurred
at Birmingham this afternoon during
attempts to restock the wholesale meat
Wagons were unloaded at the railway
depot, but as soon as they appeared
On the street they were charged upon
oy strikers and upset. The only agons
that got through were those moved
after the arrival of strong police re-
Inducements. The train service is In
a chaotic state.
The government and the Board of
Trade are continuing their efforts
toward peace, but the old deadlock
between LOe unions anu tIle IIldndBeTS
appears to haYe reasserted itself to-
day. The managers had prolonged
meeting with the members of the
Board of Trade but as far as could be
learned the railroad companies de-
clined to bulge from their stand of
making no further concession beyond
submitting the dispute to the royal
commission suggested by the govern
uent.
The chief cities of England are armed
camps The stations, workshops, sig
nal posts, tunnels and bridges are
guarded by soldiers. Clerks have been
pressed into service to aid the nom
strikers in moving the trains. Despite
the efforts of the companies freight
traffic Is demoralized and the shortage
of food supplies threatens a famine at
some points. There has been rioting
at Birmingham, Derby, Sheffield and
at Llanelly, Wales.
The government views the industrial
war as so grave that Parliament did
not adjourn as had been expected to-
day, but will continue, prepared to
adept any emergency legislation the
moment 1t is necessary.

FiIet Lace Covers.

Every woman Is proud to own one or
more soft cushion covers made from fine
handkerchief linen and squares Of filet
lace.
Nothing gives more distinction to a
tearoom couch than the addition of one
of these cushions. Spreads tor the bed

teflais, which. If bought, would be quite
beyond the average woman's pocketbook
Inc hlet squares can be bought for lit
Tie price They show classic designs
woven IN solid. and often several different
designs are used in the making of a bod
spread. The work is done somewhat on
the order Of old-fashioned patchwork,
only it is much easier
STRIPS or linen are seWed between the
squares. The work is done on the ma
chine If you are busy woman; but if
there is time to spare do it by hand
rolling the edges.
A wide border of linen with a filet
lace edge makes the handsomest cover;
but a hem all the way around. having the
corners inferred, is very good taste
Pillow covers or shams match the bed
covers, and covers for the couch cushions
correspond, but are made from smaller
filet squares. Slip on over a colored silk
lining. Such a set would be a JOY to
the heart of any housekeeper and yet
can be had with small expense of time.

THE DAILY CHIT-CHAT.
By Ruth Cameron.

THE correctness with which man
pronounces, an old college professor
used to tell all his classes, is the hall
mark of his culture and education"
How do you think you would stand &C
cording to that criterion?
It seems to me that very few people
would be 100 point folks by that test.
Perhaps you think my remarks are UNI
duly sweeping and unnecessarily harsh.
Perhaps you think that you, for instance,
do not very often make a mistake in
pronunciation.
b Now before you pat yourself on the
back, my friend. let me ask you how you
pronounce a few words like address, In
quiry. alias. interesting, aspirant, grlev-
Gus. harass, illustrate, precedence, re-

words in the dictionary and If you have
them all right / humbly beg your par

OF course, the common words winch
could hardly be pronounced in more than
one way most of us get right. Only
children and distinctly ignorant people
make errors in these. But there are
many words which are commonly pro
nounced two or three ways and yet "hlch
should properly be pronounced only one
way. When a man pronounces all these
words properly he has certainly earned
his window in the Hall OF Culture
But how few people do.
OF course, it would be almost Impossible
to sit down and corral these words all
at once and learn to pronounce them

But one can make an effort to notice
different recommendations In the course OF
conversation and then hunt out the right
one and make 1t ones own
That's the hardest way, but, ike most
hardest ways, it's the only sure one.
II isn't safe to adopt pronunciation
because YOU hear some one you think Is
well educated using 1t. Many people
who ought to know better cling firmly to
faulty pronunciations
Nor is it safe to adopt a pronunciation
because 1t sounds "high-broW. You are
very apt to get caught this way. For In

Cleaning Black Silk.

One of the cleaning processes for black
silk that is far from being widely known
is the coffee method. 1t is as follows.
Boil some coffee until there is no further
aroma arising therefrom. Lay the silk
article that is to be sponged on q table or
board and sponge on the side that is to
show. After the sponging is thoroughly
done turn on the wrong side and iron
with a fairly hot iron, preferably one
that is kept at a constant heat, such as
the gas or electric iron variety, though
the other will do If rapid changes are
essary. say minute intervals This will
remove the spots far oftener than the
malt liquor process that has long been in
fashion, and not only will this give tone
to the black material. but make the ar
ticles texture appear new. Let dry
slightly before ironing.
