The NaZimOva Vampire gown
is going to be offered as the very
last word in sartorial drapery by
at least two Tacoma stores on
New Years day.
There is another name given
the gown which may suit Tacoma
tastes better-The Limit!
The gown was first sprung by
Nine. Nazimova at her wedding
"breakfast" ten days ago, and 1t
so upset Charley Frohman, her
manager, who was present, that
he insisted that the star wear
it in her play.
The next day four of the swag-
ger women's toggery shops on
Fifth avenue had it and it was
selling like hot-cakes at $3.50 per
cake.
Within "a hours more two
wholesale gown makers had sales
men headed to the four points of
the commercial compass with a
full line of samples of the Vam-
pire in all shades-and
Lo!
One of the Vampire emissaries
arrived in Tacoma last night and
the wierd creation will be on in
spection along about New Years
at two local shops.
This gown is made of woven
cloth of gold, with black oak
leaves. 1t is cut very high in the
neck, with long sleeves. 1t is
made over blush green. This
gown is cut absolutely straight,
with an extremely long Y in front
of neck line. Over this is worn
a most wonderful coat of black
chiffon with spider web design
with spiders, and the colors all
suggest the moonlight on the wat
er at night.

WIFE WORE
TROUSERS;
DIVORCE

When Mrs. Mable Durham
dressed in mems clothing and
toured the town of Sumner
Wash, she was prodding her hus.
band, John, on to divorce. A
decree was granted today py
Judge Clifford here.
John said he told his wife on
her return home after this es-
capade that he did not approve
OF such conduct.
"She told me if / didn't like It,
! could forget it," swore John on
the witness stand this morning.
I've been forgetting it ever
SINCE" he added to the court.
John also regretted that Mable
had languished in bed mornings
with the result that he had to
eat his breakfast elsewhere than
in his own home or prepare it
himself.

NEW YORK, Dec. 28.-Point-
ing out what she termed the
great sin of the race, Lady Cook
known on two continents as a
pioneer in the science of eugenics,
today gave special interview to
the United Press in which she
blamed the existence of the social
evil to the failure of mothers
in the care of their bodies.
II want to break down the
Chinese wall of mock NODES
ty," said Lady Cook. II want
the people of this great
country to realize that the
body is the Temple of God
and that the care of the body
Is the best means of stamp
ing out, not only disease but
crime Also"
Lady Cook has been lecturing
In this country and abroad for
more than fifty years. AS Tennes-
see Claflin she became famous for
her theories on the science of
eugenics. She was in the midst
of lecture tour of Great Brit
ain when, reading of the vice
crusades in New York and Chi
cago, she decided to come once
more to the United States and de-
liver a last series of addresses in
every state from Maine to Cali
fornia.

OUR DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE.

The American declaration Of independence meant at
the time sent forth than document heraded to
a weary and waiting world
The Of country means more to all the govern
of the world than other single fact of history
IL means the ultimate rule Of popular justice.
The who makes government in yschool
county, state nation ridiculous less failure
is the enemy of Of the Of human progresss
The citizen obedience tohe laws good moral conduct
and honesty and integrity of life but having renderdha fairly
well he has done his duty to the government
Those who act for the people, those who accept and seek Of
c those who take an oath to uphold the constitution and
force the laws the upon whom rests the responsibility
To make their work successful requires neverceasng vg
lance the part of the presto commend those who do their
duty and reprimnad those who fail violate their OATH
The performance of this duty feaesssy by the press the
great issue before every newspaper pubsherand his duty is
the highest and most important of any citizen.
The Capital Journal for nearly quarter of century has
tried to meet this duty squarely and fearlessly
Tt has offended the citizenship but has always stood
for the rights Of the citizen and taxpayer for good government
tt has not been able to meet the demands of the radicals and
extremists at all times and probably will be able to do
But it has sold itself its space against the people
and got into the harness for ofcasm and machine politics.
For this independence has been made target by those who
regarded its general attitude to their operations

THIRD PARTY RANKS
Low IN THE BETTING

Chicago, July 3.-Theodore Roose-
velt is to shot That's what
Jim oLeary, the Stock Yards gamb-
ling king, thinks Of the Oyster Bay
third party candidates chances,
The odds in oLeary's book read;
Taft even money Wilson even
money The field 4 to 1,
yep, Teddy is still in the field,
.oLeary said tonight He hasn't got
a chance, as far as betting goes,
alongside of Taft or Wilson. They
are easily the fayorites.
Just to show how strong | thinl,
Roosevelt is, I'm chasing him with
the Socialist, Prohibition and all OF
them other candidates, with Taft or
Wilson as my pick against that field
at 4 to l."
OLoary says that lots of Wilson
money is anoat. Today he took the
Taft end of a $1,000 bet from a VIII
son man. Most Of the bets are in
sums ranging from $40 up to $500.
"A lot Of fellows think they are
getting good odds the way the book
stands now and are getting their
money down." OLeary said.
They think Roosevelt Is going to
SHOW Well maybe he will, but he
hasn't developed any form yet"

MAY RUN FOR SENATOR
on NEW PARTY TICKET

81 wish It to be understood I am
no longer a Republican In making
this declaration / do not consider
that am a bolter because I have
left the Republican party and do moi
intend TO go back TO IT, was the un-
oquiyocal announcement of Frederick
w Mulkey, ex-United States senator
and manager Of the Roosevelt cam
paign in Oregon last spring, on his
return yesterday from Chicago, where
he observed the work Of the Repub-
llcan national convention.
II cannot take the oath of allegi-
ancc to the Republican party this
year." continued Mr.. Mulkey.
"The platform adopted by the Chi
cago convention is weak, vaclllating
and colorless. 1t says any changes
must be orderly and constitutionay
To that I agree, but the platform
should go farther and say what those
changes should be, but 1t does not.
Third Party Only Choice.
"I am still standing by ex-Presi-
dent Roosevelt and favor the organi-
zation Of a progressive party. Hay
ing left the Republican party, I can
not affiliate with the Democratic par
ty for two reasons; First, 1t is a par.
ty for tariff for revenue only; sec
ondly, It emphasizes too greatly
state rights. For these reasons
alone, the Democratic party offers nc
future hope. The demands of the
situation require the organization OF
20 new political party such as Roose-
welt and his friends have proposed,
III will be with that party I shall ally
myself
Mr., Mulkey was asked If the rumor
was correct that he probably would
become candidate for United States
senator this year or two years hence.
That is a question I have under
consideration" he answered. "If the
Roosevelt people organize a progress
sivc party this year, shall probably
seek Us Endorsement for United States
senator In the November election.
The matter Of my candidacy depends
entirely on the organization of the
proposed progressive party"
Mr.. Mulkey said he did not believe
the nomination Of Wilson for presi-
dent by the Democrats would either
deter or cause Roosevelt and his POI
litical advisers TO alter their plans
for bringing new party into exist
ence.
