Old st. Louis today is engulfed to

LEWISTON FEARS HOPPE,RS
Farmers Prepare to Meet Threatened
Invasion.

LEWISTON, Idaho, Aug. 21.-
There is widespread fear in this vi
cinity that grasshoppers, which have
damaged orchards in the Lower
Snake river valley, will attack the
rich orchards and grain lands near
here. Some of the insects have ap-
peared In nearby orchards.
The pests practically have moved
down vast alfalfa tracts, orchards and
grain fields in the Lapwai section, ac-
cording to reports. The damage to
the grain field of d. J. Wyatt, south Of
this place is estimated at $1,000. Many
small orchards in that vicinity are re-
ported to have been attacked.
Growers are taking measures to
combat the insects If they begin to
feed on the ripened fruits and grain.
Some farmers have taken steps to kill
them in such numbers as to render the
hoppers a merchantable article for
poultry food.

GOT TIP FROM WAY
HE WORE HIS HAT

BELGRADE, Aug. 21.-Perhaps the
best story of the second Balkan war,
wherein humor was scarce, is being
told here today about young clerk
who was discharged from the Servian
war office for unconsciously giving
out information to correspondents.
The clerk was accused of indiscre-
tion in giving out war news and when
he demanded an explanation, was told
that he was 'indiscreet with his hat"
The more acute the angle at which
the Servian wears his hat, the greater
is supposed to be his exhileration and
this young man, though as silent as
the grave. could not, on hearing of
every fresh victory before 1t was pub
licly known. resist putting his hat on
jauntily awry.
Reporters, when they could get no
news from headquarters. watched the
young clerk as he left the war office
to go out for his lunch. When the
hat was worn rakishly on one side.
the reporters would return to their
offices and write fiery stories Of VIC

there is nothing more diaphanous
than chiffon or tulle, and the major

these gossamer-like stuffs arranged
to fall in long. free, graceful folds. In
one rose pink chiffon gown the pale

Of the latter are brought to the front,

which reach almost to the floor.
The overdress consists of two
straight pieces of chiffon. gathered on
the shoulders, and allowed to fall in
long points forming sleeves. Double
ruffles of the deep rose chiffon faced
with ruffles of lace soften the edges
of the overdress. The color scheme is
appealing to the eye, and is general
ly becoming both to blondes and bru-
nettes.
Another tea gown presents an in
viting study in pale green and creamy
shadow lace. The foundation of the
gown Is soft china silk and the an
gel sleeves are of the lace set into
very deep, elongated armseyes. The
V-shaped neck would make any gown
cool and comfortable, yet within the
confines of her home there Is no rea-
son why the most fastidious woman
should hesitate to enjoy it. Very full
ruffles of narrow lace outline the
front of the gown which opens over
petticoat of lace. Tiny chiffon rose
buds, in various soft colors, peep out
from the lacy frills.

Negligee Has Advantages.

The natural and rational solution OF
the clothes problem in hot weather is
the negligee, or rest robe. If the Am
erican woman could be made to re-
alize the practical advantages of the
rest robe she would give 1t the same
prominent place in her wardrobe
that it occupies with the French wo-
man. The latter appears at her best
in the gowns she wears at home; the
prettiest and most becoming styles are
selected for these intimate costumes
writes New York Tribune contrib
utor
Certainly there is no more appro-
pirate apparel for a hot summer
morning than a loose boudoir suit of
dotted swiss or flowered dimity. The
little jacket may be trimmed with
lace or frills Of the material, and the
skirt should carry out the same idea.
The fundamental of such a costume
is simplicity. and the trimming should
hot be so elaborate that the carmen.
cannot make frequent trips to the
tub.
Some women prefer the one-piece
garment to the skirt and jacket and
these rest robes can be developed
quite as successfully from the dotted
swisses. the floweerd organdles and
lawns, figured batistes and soft mulls.
In trimming them the same care
should be taken to avoid anything
which will make them difficult to
launder. White materials return rom
the administrations of the laundress in
a more satisfactory condition than
the colored goods. and on this ac-
count are preferred by many women.
Usefulness may give way to beauty
when 1t comes to choosing the rest
robe for afternoon tea or the informal
dinner at home. These more costly
