PENNSY employees
ARE TRESPASSERS

AS a result Of serious injury to
Pennsylvania Railroad operator resid-
ing at williamsport. Pa. who was
kicked from an engine by a Northern
Central fireman, the Pennsy is again
out with stringent orders to all en-
ployes prohibiting them from riding
on ,reight trains or engines to and
from wor unless special provisions
have been made by the company for
engineers to carry certain employees.
In Wilmington and vicinity are
many employees who go TO and from
the yards on the trains. There are
times when a trainman will use a
I freight train OF engine. but since an
order issued some time ago prohibits
such practice there has been little
/ trouble in this vicinity. An official
said today:
"The Pennsylvania Railroad Com

One must pay for the name OF an Eng
lish maker inside his hat. There is Gus
toms duty to be regarded, tranSOceanic
freight and several other little things
which go to swell the cost. Hence real
English hat is very apt To cost not less
than 81. Probably there is one of the

these new hats come in cloth. wool or
some other heavy material. 1t is possible.
however, to get them in felt-which
brings back the fedora more than ever.
Indeed, that self-same fedora, which
has been considerably neglected during
the past few years. is rapidly coming
back into its own. 1t is an altogether
different hat from that which was so
common on the city's boulevards three
years ago. however. Then fashion called
for a hat with low crown and wide fiat
brim, crushed in at the top and bent
down in front until ii made practically
a shade for the eyes. The new fedora is
brim. Also the brim is rolling. and is not
under any circumstances to be turned
down, anywhere. Neither is the hat to
be crushed in at the top Instead the
crease is to be very light-barely indi-
cated-and the sides must reach it in a
long undented roll. Perhaps the style
can best be described by saying that one
wears the new fedOras in what few
years ago was commonly known as ''Old
man fashion," But while the new fedoras

point of shape, they are far more gaudy
in point of color. few years back one
wore a fedora of black or gray or, in
rare instances, one of dark brown. Today
black is practically taboo, and gray, un-
less it be a gray of very striking shade,
is also apt to be Stunned. In place of
these we have fedOras of bright green,
olive green, plum color and of practically
all the other shades of the rainbow, not
to mention the unusual. almost startling
effects resultant from the use of strange
materials There are hats of velvet, hats
of cheviot hats of some wOolenlike ma
terial out of which long rather stiff hair
prOtrudeS, giving them almost the effect
of being of the skin of an animal, and
hats of all sorts of material. The more
unusual the material, in all probability,
the higher will be the cost of the hat
Thus one wishing a soft hat has an
almost unlimited field from which to
choose. If he wants to be certain of not
going wrong, and can afford it, how
ever. he will do wise to choose a hat of
velour. These soft plush hats after a
brief absence have come back into favor
stronger than ever. Nor are they too
expensive. True, if one wishes the genu-
Inc imported article, one must be pre-
pared to pay not less than S. at

have contrived to put out a very accept

Then. couple of years ago. came a
change. and there are very few but who
will tell you it was a change for the
worse. 1t became the thing to get Il
derby with an essentially low. rounded
crown. and a wide. rolling brim. Nor
did you buy hat that fitted you-at least
not one that fitted you in the way to
which YOU had grown accustomed. In
stead. if YOU were accustomed to wear
ing six and seven-eighths size. you
bought "a derby of size about seven and
one-half. This you rammed down on the
back of your head. pushing il far down
until the brim just about touched your
ears. The effect was called English 1t
must be admitted that this mode Of
wearing the hats had one advantage.
There was very little danger of the hat
being blown off your head. no matter
how strong the gale. But derbies are
very rarely blown off ones head any
how. For the rest, the hat was frankly
and undeniably ugly. Here and there one
would come across man of exceptionally
English type on whom the hat looked
fairly natural. But for the most part il
made its wearers look like a widely
known variety of stage caricature.
+
The towns leading haberda shers are
heartily CAD to see this style of derby
depart. for they don't like to sell man
ii hat that isn't becoming. But SO far
as derbies are concerned. the man who
wants to wear one need not quake and
tremble this year. 1t can practically
be said that the old styles have come
back again. The extreme crowns and
brims have departed, and SO also has
the hat that is so big that II has to fit
around the ears. In short. where last
year IL was the fashion for the man with
derby TO wear 1t like an Englishman.
il like an American. which is at once
far easier and far better looking.
English styles still prevail in a general
way throughout the world of hatdOm,
however. The English rain or knock
about hat bids fair to be even more popu-
lar this year than 1t was last. The shape
remains just about the same-which is
another way of saying there isn't much
shape to it. In the colors. however. there
has been considerable modification.
Whereas last year 1t was the style to get
just about the loudest hat possible-glar-
ing checks and turkish pattern, worked

There is a growing effort to break away

such a course dOOms the child for life to

by little kind assistance the earning

Another exemption to the present child

is that which provides that any child may

During the period of twenty months from

investigations 229 children received per-

present law is that it seems to tend 10
make Washington the center OF instruc-
ton for child actors: for more than twos
thirds of the permits were granted to
local children. while an increasing num-
Der of Washington children are coming
to town with travelling companies. This
situation probably arises from the fact
that the laws of other cities are Operat-
ing to restrict stage children.
Five of these children. ranging in age
from eight to fourteen. have appeared at
a theater which does not have women or
boys under sixteen in it's audience. Many
of the children sing at out-of-door thea
tiers in the summer; though the real at
traction for child actors is the amateur
nights at two of our local theaters. In
one month thirty-four children received
permits to appear a. these two theaters.

about thirty children who might be call

years of age, they put on all the airs OF
old-time professionals in a most amusing
manner. For instance. one of our in

performers in box at one of the local
theaters and overheard them discuss the

child as to the use of cold cream for re-
moving rouge.
''There was another stage child of seven
years dressed in a pink satin sheath
gown with pink bonnet and parasol and
looking like a wonderful lady doll in
shop window. whose name was called in
correctly by mistake. The error af-
fected the child's professional vanity so
that she cried like a grown-up prima dom
ma and could not be persuaded to go on.

together until they touched, with strings

LONDON, November 26. 1912.
CHARITABLE work is the 'favorite
~ prescription for a broken heart
when the sufferer is rich or of high de-
gree. Queen Alexandra. who had tested
its efficacy herself, gave it to the Duchess
of Marlborough, and evidently in the
American peeress' case it acted well, for
the duchess is now an infinitely happier
woman than she was before she began
her work in behalf of the wives and chill
dren of prisoners, the woman workers OF
the slums and all the other human fiot-
sam and jetsam whose lives are made
brighter by her charities.
Another woman of high estate to try
the charity heart cure is Princess
Marie Louise of Schleswig- Holstein. She
is a granddaughter Of Queen Victoria.
Of course, and married Prince Aribert
and Anhalt. Tie story went at the time
that the princess was in love with a
''commoner'' and wanted to marry him.
but whether it was SO or not the fact
unhappy as marriage can be and it was
dissolved a few years ago. since when
her royal highness has lived in England.
Her special protege is the London fac
tory girl, who has none too easy a time
of it. Next week CLUB for such of
these girls as work in Bermondsey, one
of the most squalid quarters Of the East
end. will be opened. and the founder and
president Of 1t is Princess Mario Louise.

lowed to go over yesterday. has cost over

1t is as certain as anything can be that
she took up the factory girls to begin
with chiefly to divert her mind. bug it
is quite evident that she now takes a
sincere interest in them. 1t is an in
finitely better hobby. by the way, than
that Of her sister, Princess Victoria Of
Schleswig- Holstein. who, old maid like,
