the border and the home of five Amer.

can bullets.
Rebels opened fire on the American
soldiers on patrol duty near the e
Paso foundry in the darkness and the
Americans returned the fire, shooting
in the direction from which the Mexi
can shots had come.
II is not known whether any Mexi
cans were struck, as neither side
could see the other.
Three bullets from the Mexican side
struck the home of G. FL. Cole, ant
the homes of A. ID. Martinez, CurtisI
Williams and Yonkers were alsS
struck by bullets, but no one in then

her into a serious condition.

capped.
The affair has been reported to Colo

SAYS Female Attire Grows
Worse Every Year.
SOME GOWNS STARTLING
Declares There Has Been a Steady
Trend Toward immortality for the
Last Twenty Years and Blames
France for the Fashions.

Des Moines, Aug 5.-Bishop Austin
Bowling of the Catholic diocese OF
Des Moines, who recently came from
Providence, r. l., agrees with Cardinal
Carvali that the present styles in won
ans dress are astounding" He says
however, the American woman does
not wear modern clothes to be i'm
modest, but to follow the dictates OF
fashion.
Women are women" said the bish
op when asked for an expression, land
they seek to follow the conventional
in fashion as well as along other lines
Women's fashions are hard to change
except by the people who manufacture
the changes.
81 believe il would be difficult for
the church to exert any influence to
change the style of women's apparel
"Women's gowns grow more i'm.
modest every year because they are
designed in a country which is frank.

cuss subjects which are not eveb

Startled by Gowns Of Today.
81 must confess that / am often
startled by some of the gowns of the
day. The boldness of them is start
ling. Such gowns are displeasina, even
offensive to me. / believe many men
disapprove OF such clothes for women
would never advise such clothes for
women of my household II | ware the
head of family.
Manufacturers of woolen gose;s ant
other fabrics are not in favor of the
new fashions. Dresses are now SC
scant that business is not so good. a
wooden goods manufacturer in Con
necticut told me the women were
wearing such tight skirts and SO few
petticoats the demand for dress goods
and other cloth materials had beer
materially lessened.
There has been trend toward i'm
morality in America for the last twen
ty years. The stage has helped In this
direction. The newspapers print pic
lures of almost naked prize fighters
One reads of many orgies where club
men assemble to drink wine and watch

ADJOURNMENT is FAR OFF
Many Senators Think Congress VIII
Be In Session on Sept. I.

Washington, Aug. 5.--Senate leaders
are agreed that the date of the ad-
journment or congress is Indefinite.
and none of them believes II will come
before Aug. II. Most of them put the
date nearer Sept. /.
These predictions were based on the
probability that the Archibald impeach-
ment case will be postponed. The de-
lay is due to the inability of the con-
ference committee of the two houses
to reach an agreement on the general
appropriation bills and to the comph-
cations growing out of the tariff situa.
tion.

TO DISCUSS PEACE TERMS
Turko-ltalisn Commission Will Meet
in Switzerland.

London, Aug. 5.--A dispatch to a

the Turkish government has appoint
ed a commission to discuss peace be
tween Turkey and Italy and that II
will meet the Italian delegates at Lau
same, Switzerland.
According to statement published
by the Daily Express the seizure ol
Tripoli by Italy was due to the fact
that Italy got wind of German nego
tiations at Constantinople to acquire
rights In Tripoli by purchase, which
would be tantamount to giving Ger
many actual possession of the coun
try.

BITTER FEELING PREVAILS


Guards and Strikers Must Be Dis.
armed to Prevent Further Blood
shsd.
Charleston, w. Va, Aug. SIT is
said that striking miners and coal
company guards are to be disarmed.
An attack was made on the state
troops at Mucklow. Shots were ex-
changed, but none was injured. Feel
ing is intense. Members of the ma
tional guard are on the alert because
most of the miners are known to be
armed with rifles.
Governor Glasscock returned here
from Huntington, where he had been
I'LL. and conferred with Adjutant Cen
eral Charles b. Elliott and others
concerning the strike situation. 1t is
said that the executive Is undecided
about issuing a proclamation declar-
ing martial law. 1t is known, how
ever. that Governor Glasscock has
been advised that 1t will be impossi-
BILE to allay all fear of another en-
counter in the Paint Creek mining dis
trict until both strikers and mine
guards are disarmed.
In this connection, under state law
Il is impossible to prevent striker
from carrying rife, but If proc
lamation of martial law Is issued
every one within radius of the strike
zone can be disarmed.
Former National President Thomas
Lewis of the United Mine Workers OF
