SERIOUS RI0TING IN ROME
Disturbance in Genoa Results in
Marines Being Landed
from Warships to
Preserve Order.

Milan, Aug. l2.-At a meeting or
strikers to-day resolution calling for
the cessation Of the general strike to-
morrow was passed. Ten thousand work
men attended the meeting. The decision
TO cease the movement was reached as
result of promises made by the EN-
ployers that they would resume the dis
cussions with the strikers, which were
broken off some time ago. and endeavor
TO reach an agreement on the demands
OF the men. Only the streetcar and
railroad employees will continue on
strike.
The opinion is growing that to-day's
action means an end OF the general
strike. for il is known that the funds OF
the workmen are now exhausted. The
belief is also expressed. however that
the employers will be unable TO grant
all the concessions demanded by the
men and that, therefore. the strike will
be resumed later on a larger and fiercer
scale.

Serious disorders broke out this after
noon. when strikers smashed lampposts.

cars in tho outlying districts. Several

CLAIM TO HAVE FOUND
EXISTENCE AFTER DEATH
German Scienti6e-Spiritualists Say
MANI orce Returns in Gaseous
Form.

Paris. March "2.-Man exists after
death in the form of gas endowed with
intelligence. This is alleged to be the
discovery of two Dutchmen described
as scientific spiritualists.
The two Dutchmen are Messrs Malta
and Zaalberg Van Zelst
Acting on these instructions, the
Dutchmen constructed an apparatus by
which they might measure the spirit
superman whom they have christened

shown that the man force" is not what
can properly be termed soul as 1t was
amenable and responded to physical
tests. On the other hand, it Is not a
body, as 1t is invisible. 1t is. therefore.
defined as gaseous composition.
In 1904 the Dutchmen were told by
the spirits to make two alright CYL
inders, and to cover the outer and inner
sides of these cylinders with sheets of
tin. The spirits stated that they would
be able TO penetrate the cylinder and
would be kept there by the tin.
Attached TO the cylinder was a high
ly sensitive recorder and It Is from
records made that the scientific spirit
ualists state they have found that
The records were made by limited

The being had Intelligence. since II
took part in the experiments.
The being was gaseous as il obeycd
the laws which govern gases.
The density OF the body was equal to
that of air.

Feminine Adviser On All Things Fem.

Paris. March 22-The increasing atten-
tion given by authors and playwrights
to women. their habits, dress and occu.
pations, has led to the birth of a new
professionalism OF feminine adviser on
all things feminine.
Her business Is to prevent the author
from falling into the numerous pitfalls
that await him when he describes the
dress and coiffure of his heroine.
A bright Parisienne. one of the pioneers
of the new profession, says that many
literary men live in the provinces or live
retired lives. which give them no oppor-
tunity OF seeing feminine fashions. That
is why their descriptions Of women's
dress are SO often ludicrous.
Novels are read mostly by women, and
nothing jars more on woman than an
inaccurate dress description; Il spoils the
most cleverly written story.
novelist, for instance, finds II very
difficult to give an exact description OF
the tea gown worn by the heroine in the
love scene. or the tailor-made costume
worn in the Bois de Boulogne.
What the modern novelist needs to
learn is the correct use OF a few techni-
cal terms. He should know that the
cashmere shawl of his grandmother s
time is now used to line mantles, that
evening gowns are called kimonos and
are made Of crepe de chine, that hats
are made of Tagel and English straw.
are all the rage.
The feminine expert nearly always re-
mains anonymous. but of course, she
claims a share In the royalties earned
by the work, which her advice has helped
to mold.
