The knees were embroidered, too,

HELP! THE LATEST SENSATION

IN GOWNS HAS CAME"
New York, June 25.-The latest
sensation in gowns has arrived from
Paris and Mayor Gaynor is thinking
of increasing the traffic squad. A few
old-fashioned folks think the militia
ought to be called out.
The new gown is called the 'cEx-
pose Toilette" and you can take it
from Fifth avenue that expose is
right.
One young woman, hired by a big
department store to make the "Ex-
pose Toilette" fashionable, appeared
on Fifth avenue wearing one of 'em

work handling the crowds.
You couldn't make any mistake
about the young woman's form. It
seems that it is against the law or
something to wear corsets or petit
coats with the Expose Toilette"

LoNG-DISTANcE coURTSHIP
PROVES A FIZZLE

Berlin, June 24.-The latest
method of long-distance courtship
has proven a fraud because of the
falseness of woman.
Fraulein Bertha Stahl put her
name in a matrimonial advertisement
and Herr Justh, an engineer in South
Africa, wrote to her. He asked her
to have a moving picture made of
herself, doing homework. The film
showed the pretty fraulein in neat
apron with her hands in a batch of
dough.
Justh wrote for her to come to
Windhook and when she got there,
the girl confessed the picture to be
a fake. Justh refused to wed her and
she sued. The court held for the
engineer.

SITE IS ACQUIRED
FOR NEW HOSPITAL
Johnston-Willi Corporation Buys
Property at Fifth and
Franklin Streets.

The Willis Sanatorium. Inc.
has acquired for $4,000 the lot and
brick residence at the southeast cor
ner OF Fifth and Franklin Streets. once
the home of DR. Charles NJ. Shields
The purchasers expect to hold the prop
erty. it is stated, and may within the
next year erect 81 modern hospital
building fronting on Fifth Street. as
an annex to the present hospital at
Sixth and Franklin Streets. Tentative
plans are said to he in course of prep
aration. The lot fronts sixty feet on
Fifth street and runs back 12O feet
along Franklin to a wide alley. A year
or two ago plans were on foot for the
erection Of office building for pro-
fessional purposes on this site. but
the plan did not materialize. and the
old dwelling house has been rented as
a boarding house.
The constantly increasing business
of the Johnston Willis Sanatoriun,
which admitted 1900 patients last year.
is making IL obvious that the hospital
at Sixth and Franklin will soon he out
grown. The old building may event
ually be converted into "a nurses home
for new and more modern hospital
plant at Fifth and Franklin Streets.
The corporation is also interested in
branch hospitals at Abingdon and Har-
risonburg. Va. and at Rocky Mount.

MAYOR AND BOARD
GET SHAKING UP
City Officials Were in Automo-

Draft Wagon.

Mayor George Ainslie and three
members Of the Administrative Board
Carlton Mccarthy, Henry P. Beck and
John ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A shaking
up yesterday afternoon when the new
$4,000 Administrative Board autolAo-
bile was struck by a heavy dra Fl
wagon on West Leigh Street No one
was hurt and the automobile was ONLY
slightly damaged According TO the
negro drivers story. the accident was
unavoidable, but the city officials in
the machine accuse him OF reckless
handling of his mules.
On the order OF Mayor Ainsl!c, the
driver. Jerry Braxton, was arrested by
Patroiman Porte and Bicycle Officer
Latham. both of whom happened to be
in the neiEhborhood and were attract
cd TO the scene by the crash The
team and wagon is the property OF
John Tyler & Co, teamsters of Shockoe
Slip The driver was bailed last night
by an officer OF the truck company.
For the purpose OF making personal
inspection OF certain dumps ~ the far
West END and to give the Mayor. n FIRST
hand knowledge OF the reasons the
Administrative Board has refused the
street railway companies permission
to tear up sections OF streets until
further notice, Messrs Beck, McCar-
thy and Hirschberg invited Mayor
Ains!!e to take All automobile tour OF
the territory In question yesterday
afternoon. At the time OF the col
lision, the machine was stationery just
around the corner OF Leigh Street on
Moore street The negro Braxton. who
was driving.up Leigh Street at a good
ly pace. turned the corncr OF Moore
Street apparently without noting the
standing automobile and, when ne re-
ceived warning of the imminent danger
could not pull down his team
The wagon tongue smashed Into the
front of the automobile. shattered one
OF the lamps. bent a mud guard and
scratched the paint in long streaks
The mules were frightened but un-
hurt. Braxton said in the station
house that the accident was unavoid-
able on his part building on the
corner shut the standing machine out
of his view until he had rounded the
curb and was upon It.
The automobile party displays no
desire to prosecute the driver for his
alleged recklessness. Mr.. Hirschberg
expressed the opinion that ali four Off
Gals would be satisfied TO have the
truck company pay for the damage to
the car and to dismiss the proceedings
with that.
