Lace Cater Tons

Lace CATERS are the newest wrinkle
in tops for fine shoes. They are of
white baby Irish mesh overlaid with
applied white medallions, and are fas.
tened at one side of the ankle with a
row of large, fiat white pearl buttons
fitting buttonholes embroidered in the
lace. Although looking rather fragile,
they really are quite substantial, and
unlike many sorts Of white gaiter-tops,
can be easily cleaned. But they are
exceptionally dressy-looking and only
suitable with a theater or a restaur-
ant costume.

 The explosion of a drum containing chemicals was the cause of the fire, according to the story told by Waldron Disselman third officer of the Vol turno Disselman gave a thrilling narrative of the long hours spent on the fire ridden ship, figthing the flames repairing the crippled wireless plant, lowering the lffeboats and quieting the panic stricken and steering the vessel bv hand to keep her from drifting while the waves were running too high for the small craft of the other ships to accomplish the journey to the Vol turno's side More than eighty pas sengers were burned to death when they were cut off by the flames, Dis selman reported.
 Ranking well up in bravery dis played by Captain Inch of the VOlturnO was the feats of daring of several of his officers. among them Second Of- ficer Lloyd. When the rescue boats failed to arrive in response to Inch's wireless. Lloyd taking four men with him. entered a damaged lifeboat and showed it was possible to ride the seas. Second Officer Voncarlsberg of the Grosser Kurfuerst. told the story of Lloyd and his crew set an example for the other ships.

 He quoted from Woodrow Wilson's writings to indicate that the presi- dent in his earlier days, entertained beliefs contrary to the provisions of the bill.
 If the house bill be enacted into law" he said, Bryan will achieve the purpose for which he has been contending for a decade"
 The Aldrich speech was delivered al the closing session of the National Currency Reform convention.

 FIX PENALTY
w. H. Berry Delivers Ad- dress Before Prison As sociation Pointing Out the Advantages of Inde- terminate Sentences.
LAssncIArEn pREss nIsPArcHl

INDIANAPOLIS. Oct. 15.-No hu- man judge can fix intelligently the penalty a criminal should pay for his crime in the opinion of w H. Berry. for six years d member of the Iowa
 board of parole; and only the judge of all the earth has a right to say, the soul that sinneth, it shall die. 7"
 Nor should punishment be the ob- ject of enforcing penalties, according to MT Berry; rather, punishment should be an indirect result with reformation the object. For one prisoner may have but moral whOop- irG cough and may soon be cured,
 while another may be moral leper ard may never be cured; yet both nay be discharged together under the present method of administering justice in many states.
 The palliative for the long train of moral disorders that lie in the trail of the fixed sentence, in MT. Berry's opinion. is the indeterminate sen tcrce. In his address today before the American Prison association, Mr. Berry so asserted. adding that it would be better still for judges simply to sentence criminals to imprisonment and leave to another tribunal. infer entialIy the board of parole, the task cf determining how long the sen tcnces should be.
