1911 STYLES OF
BATHING CLOTHES
Chicago Bathers Must Not Expect to
Attract Much Attention This
Season.

CHICAGO, May 10.-Chief of Po-
lice McWeeney drew up code of
morals and dress for the bathing sea-
son of 1911 in Chicago. Here it Is:
Women must not wear mems bath
ing suits.
Skirts must reach below the knees.
Loose boomers reaching below the
knees must be worn.
Boomers must not be worn with
out skirt.
Sleeveless suits must not be worn
by women.

over 16.
Blouses should not be too decollette.
Glove-htting suits for women are
barred.
Harem, hobble and directoire skirts
are forbidden.
Men must wear both shirt and
trunks.
Shapely bathers who looked for
more leniency from McWeeney than
they received from Chief Steward last
year would do well to hear the warn
ing of the new police head before
placing order for their summers COS
tune
"The Steward code goes for this
summer" said McWeeney. "The lid
will be on tight at all the beaches.
Morality will be the watchword all
along the lake. Exposure which
would be permitted in fashionable
ballroom will find no place at the pus

policemen to give post graduate
courses in bathing proprieties.

TRIPLE BROKE
OPENING GAME
One Long Hit Against the Elongated

ATTENDANCE WAS LARGE
Nearly 1000 People Pack the Stands
at the Greatest Opener the Boil

Had.
Tspecial to The Gate City.

KEWANEE, Ill, May 10.-Nearly
1000 fans saw Frank Belt and his
Keokuk Indians go down in defeat be-
fore the Kewanee Boilermakers in the
opening game of the home season
here yesterday by the score of 3 to l.
The game was a thriller for the
large crowd, which included the high
est officials of the National Tube
Company who were in the city on a
tour of inspection.
Prior to the game monster parade
was held Business was practically
suspended, many of the large manu-
featuring concerns of the city clos
Ing their doors In order that employees
could attend the game. The public
schools we're vacant and many chill
dren were given an opportunity Of
getting the baseball fever. It was one
of the biggest days Kewanee has ever
had in its baseball history, and the
opening was all the more suspicious
because of the neat victory. Mayor
Baker pitched the first ball.
The game was almost pitcher $
battle although long triple by Lober
in the fourth with three men on
bases broke up the pastime. 1t was
the only bad inning the enlongated
Pfyl had, but it was the one that car
RED Belts men to the weak end Of
the score. Llewelyn was caught at the
plate in scoring on the play.
Drohan, the Finger who opened at
Keokuk and won 5, to 4, was on the
mound for Kewanee and had the In
dams we'll in hand during most of the
game. He struck out eight men and
held the heavy sluggers to five hits.
Drohan has won three games in six
days and threatens to set new rec
ord for the league if he continues his
burning pace. Score:

Sunday Night Service.
The theme which Dr. Buchholz
chose for Sunday night was The
Meanest Man In Pensacola" The
theme was based upon the historic
incident Of Rahab and the scarlet
thread. which was hung out from the
window of her house. This scarlet
thread was represented as showing
forth three distinct things, first. it
was a sign of her faith in God, then
it was pledge of her safety, and last,
memento Of her gratitude.
1t was this last point which the
minister elaborated and by means of
which he called attention to the mean
est man in Pensacola. Who is the
meanest man? The man who has
been in possession Of health and of
strength, as has been made an object
of Gods mercy, daily recipient OF
His favor. who has heard of God S
wondrous love in the gift of His own
son, and yet who lives as though there
no God, as though He were not the au-
thor of every good and perfect gift,
as though there were no Christ, and
as though there had been no Calvary,
ignoring it all, such one is a meaner
man than he VINO has committed
every crime in the catalogue"
The point was illustrated touchingly
by college student whose own moth
er washed for him, and denied her
self that he might be educated, and
yet on account of her ugliness and
illiteracy was disowned by the son.
This student as been pronounced the
meanest Of men. but the man vic
has denied Christ who died for him
is a far n1eaner man.

was evidently very effective, quar-
