Every window in the smelling plant
and in buildings on all sides of it was
smashed The show window OF two
stores nearby were knocked out with
rocks and chunks of iron.
After a day of peaceful attempts to
organize, the strikers learned that 500
strikebreakers had been brought in by
boat from New York The subject
was discussed with growing heat and
anger over reflled glasses in various
saloons. AS night fell a mob Of about
1000 strikers of the Smelling Com

Companys plant.
Then came q fusillade of rifle shots
and in the gathering darkness scores
Of private detectives could be seen
firing from the low roof of the steel
plant, where they had climbed in an

the strikers fell back they carried
with them three OF their number

THE EVIL OF SIMPLICITY.
E. r. sIRLEY

The EVIL or SIMPIlCII v.
At the conference of the Eastern
Millinery association one of the prin'
cipal addresses was on THE Evil OF
Simplicity in Millinery" The presi'
dent recommended in his report,
among other things, that a press com
mittee see TO it that more information
about millinery be furnished the pub
Tic prints. At the banquet in the eve
ming Chief Justice Russell delivered
an address on THE Triumph OF
Truth" These three things should be
considered together. Simplicity has
many evils, whether in millinery or
without IL, but few people would have
suspected that among them is the
paradox that the more simple the hat
the more expensive it is. The fact
however, was confirmed by other
speakers. Thus, one authority speak
ing at the banquet said: formerly
we paid high for millinery, but now
we pay higher for the absence OF mil
linery." This rs doubtless one OF the
matters on which the president OF the
association wishes more information
given to the public, says the New
York World. II is probable. however,
that most people will be better
pleased by the statement that as sim
plicity in millinery came in with the
hobble skirt, so win it go out with
that garment Unfortunately, while
we are assured that the coming OF the
pannier will bring a splurge in hats
the intimation that there will be de
cline in prices in proportion to the in
crease of decoration is not accompa
MED by a guarantee That is why we
have a special interest in the atten
ton given by the banqueters to the
speech on The Triumph of Truth"
