STOLEN DECORATIONS
MARKETED IN BELGIUM

BRUSSELS, Belgium. Dec. ia
great scandal in connection with
foreign decorations was brought TO
light here today.
r Numerous demands for authorize
ton TO wear the grand Gordon OF the
Double Dragon OF China had aroused
the suspicious OF the Belgian Foreign
office, from which Belgian subjects
must obtain permission before they
may decorate their buttonholes cor
breasts with the insignia OF for
.eign order of chiyalry
Inquiries showed that the Chinese
legation here had no knowledge OF
the granting OF any such orders TO
Belgian subjects. The diplomas.
however. were found TO be genuine
and IL developed later that they had
been stolen from the Chinese lega-
tion i'm London
Further investigation revealed the
fact that a widespread business in
decorations was being carried on by
a man named LaZard. whose arrest
was at once ordered. The concern
has branches in many different
countries
The orders usually dealt in were
the Lion and sun OF Persia. the
Libertador of Venezuela and the
Double Dragon of China. and many
forged diplomas of these orders of
chivalry were found in one OF the
branch Offices.

SAYS TIPPING'S THE TROUBLE

NEW YORK, June THE strike OF
5000 of more walters, affecting twenty.
nine hotels. restaurants and clubs
threatened to spread today, ano the
strike leaders say that before night
employees in other hotels will be called
out. The kitchen crews in some of the
affected hotels have quit work. The
hotel men say that before they will
recognize the walters union they Will
close their establishments. Leaders
of the striking walters assert that
engineers. firemen and other hotel EN-.
ployes may be called out.
Places of the strikers are being fill
ed by strike breakers from other cit.
les, and though the strike is causing
the hotel owners great Inconvenience
they announced they were able to take
care of their regular patrons.
Negroes in Strikers Places.
More than thousand negro walters
are ready to be called into service
from the south, but whether they will
be brought here has not been decided
Two hotels have filed the strikers
places with. negroes, but the hotel
men say that they do not believe the
strike will last long, as the walters
are financially unable to remain out OF
work long.

Atlantic City early today He landed
safely at the hangar
Vaniman had been out half an hour
when an accident occurred. The diri-
gible had performed splendidly, ans
wering the guiding hand of the navi-
gator instantly. Then he tried out
new guide rope experiment. A long
hawser with hundred pound weight
attached was lowered from the bal
looms center and permitted to drag
in the water. In some manner Calvin
Vaniman made a wrong move with
the propellers. The middle b ade in
the string of three caught on the fly
ing rope. The huge craft shuddered,
listed to one side ana came down in
wabbly descent like a bird with
broken wing. It struck the water and
a part of the under structure went I'M
der water, damaging one Of the side
planes.
A boat in which were four men ran
to the balloons assistance. The men
aboard risked their lives to grasp
lines thrown from the dirigible as it
lowered above them. When temper
airy repairs had been made the bal
loon went aloft once more. Vaniman
had difficulty in controlling the ba.-
loon, and while the craft was 500 feet
above the water his young brother
clambered out to the end of the 5len-
der propeller shaft, twenty feet from
the side of the dirigibe, to adjust the
damaged propeller.
Vaniman finally had everything
shipshape and after circling over the
bay for a short time pointed the ship
toward the hangar and made a landing
without further incident.

WAR ON HATPlNS.

Continued from Page Nine.l
"That is only an average hat" SAID
the manager at the factory. 1--WE find,
however, that hats are getting light
er all the time. In fact, the value OF
hat is judged as much by its light
ness as by any other factor"
Starts Hatpn Crusade.
While the hat reformers were draw
ing up their constitution, Mayor Har-
rison started another reform-this one
a campaign against the naked hatpin.
He got into communication with
Chief of Police McWeeny and called
his attention to section 1890 of the
city code, which forbids the wearing
of a hatpin which protrudes beyond
the crown of the hat more than half
an inch.
81 have received so many COM
plants" he said, from persons who
have been impaleG by these freaks OF
fashion that | have determined to go
after them. The fine mentioned in
the ordinance is anything up to $50. "

Chief McWeeny was sorely non
plussed by the mayors new order.
81 have been victim of the hat pin
fad myself" he said. 81 was standing
on Madison street one day talking to
friend when along came fashion
ably dressed woman. Her hat pin
protruGed fully three inches beyond
the crown and when she passed me

heartily in favor of enforcing the or
dinance. The question at present is
how? l will have to provide my men
with rulers and then so many of then
are bashful that it will be hard fol
them to do the work. If the womer
would only wear corks,, or chewing
gum or small potatoes on the points
that would satisfy the law all right.
