Evening Slippers

The new fashions in dancing havc.
strongly influenced footwear. This
influence is shown for the shoes for
the street as well us the evening,
possibly because no hour Of the day
has been free from informal dancing.
Women who care great deal for
dancing have adopted the heelless
slipper with slightly rounded toe.
In this the ribbon is run through eye
lets that are placed along the edges.
The appearance is not unlike the
French beach sandal, which our wom-
en- have taken up in the last two
years for public dancing.
The women who cannot dance in
sandals have the laced slippers with
somewhat fiat heels or high Spanish,
ones, but not the incurred French
heel. which is not as popular as it
once was.
This is the form of footwear that
has usurped all others-in the fash
icnable sets for dancing. and the
Roman boot, or modified form of CO.

two shaded wings set stifly across

youthful models simply had quilts

Small brims rolled back are shown

ESRN7s

T~ HE pendulum of fashion swing
ing back from the wide
brimmed hats of midsummer,
has brought into vogue once more
the small close fitting hat, Of felt or
plush.
Nearly all of the early autumn
models to, wear with the tailored
suits are close fitting and smart In
shape.but they no longer extinguish
miladys eyes or noso. In fact, the
fashionable woman may retain all
her features this year with the e1-
ception of her ears.
The small tailored hats have very
little trimming, a pair of wings or an
aigrette being considered sufficient,

ALARM OF FIRE.

The alarm of fire between one and
two o'clock this afternoon was caused
by a dense volume Of smoke which
came from the cellar of the residence
Of Frank c. kast, 515 Oronoco. Kast
was engaged in smoking meat at the
time, and his neighbors, supposing
his house was on fire, sent in an
alarm.
While responding to the alarm the

ASKED INSTRUCTIONS.
Jury in Darrow Case Believed to be
Deadlocked.

Los Angeles, CAL, March S.-Dar-
row jury entered courtroom at 1O:11
a. M, and asked further instruc-
tions. Returned to jury room at 1920
The jury continues deadlocked and
judge Conley will probably declare a
mistrial and discharge the purors. If
there are indications that the men
have not abandoned hope of reaching
an agreement he will hold them in
their deliberations well into next
week.
The general opinion her today, how
ever, was that an agreement was
practically hopeless. The latest ink
ling from the room was that the men
stood nine for aequital and three for
and the bitter wrang-
ling Of the jurors as they argued ey-
;dence which could be heard outside
the room indicated that they have
been having rather tumultous de-
iberations.

PAYING PENALTY
...I1 Of GREATNESS
President WilsonIis Not Sc
curing Necessary Nine
Hours Sleep.
.RETIREs AT ELEVEN.
Will be But Few Social Affairs at
White House Until After Extra ses-
sion of Congress is Out of Way.

Washington, March S.-President
Wilson isn't getting the nine hour
sleep each night which he announced
some time ago was necessary to his
peace of mind and to keep him in good
physical trim. Moreover. if he con-
tinues the present program. he won't
get the nine hours.
Ever since being President, Wilson
has been up few minutes after sew
,en-and on his four nights in the
White House he hasn't been to bed
before eleven and on one night until
midnight. His program as a rule has
been to drift back to the executive
Offices every night, see few visitors
and work out matters until about ten
thirty.
At four or FIVE o'clock in the after
noon he takes An automobile ride with
Mrs. Wilson, but practically all the re-
mainder of his waking hours, is en-
ployed in work.
1t appears practically certain that
there would be few if any social af-
fairs at the White House-at least in
which Wilson is expected to particl-
pate-until after the extra session is
out of the way
The President could not indulge in
social activities without curtailing his
rest, and he has made up his mind to
let nothing interfere with that except
the most vital official business. His
diversions for the next few months,
therefore, viii probably be limited to
an automobile, ride, an occasional short
walk or the theatre, fro which the
new president has decided fondness.

After tuberculosis Cure.

New York, March S.-Thousands of
victims of tuberculosis, hundreds of
them coming from all parts Of the
country seeking treatment at the
hands of DR.. F. +. Friedman, the
young German physician, were today
hoping against hope that they might
| next be chosen as patients OF the SCI
enlist. At the same time their In
terest was centered in the cases of two
men and a woman, the first to receive
the Friedman treatment in this coun
try.
Extraordinary scenes marked the
first injection of the Friedman cul-
ture to the three patients yesterday.
Today the German sarant was still
nervous and unstrung, and while some
of the physicians who witnessed the
demonstration yesterday, openly de-
nounce DR.. Friedman others declar-
ed that he was in no condition ply
sically to supervise the injection of his
culture, much less te :.;lmirister the
treatment himself.
Though medical circles were great
ly stirred up today by the Incidents
attending Dr. Friedmann's first DEM
onstration, the more conservative ele-
ments still maintained an open mind
or the subject. Inasmuch as a SAM
pie of the Friedman culture is now
in the hands of the health commits
sioners and three patients have re-
ceived a first treatment, they believe
further developments should be await
ed before any judgment is passed.
It is understood that about IA days
must .elapse bfore the first Injection
will show any effect on the patients
treated.
PHILADELPHIA. Pa, March 8.-That
DR., Friedrich Friedmann, the noted
Berlin physician, will probably ex-
perience the same difficulties as IN
New York in demonstrating his pur-
ported tuberculosis cure when he ar
rives here next week, seemed certain
TODAY with the resignation Of Dr.. Solo
mon Cohen, medical adviser to the
Jewish Consumptiva Institute. DIN
Friedman has accepted an invitation
from the hospital to demonstrate his
culture on March ID. Today, Dr.
Cohen, one of the hospital board
who believes with the New York ply
sicians that DR.. Friedman should tell
more about his discovery before be-
ing allowed to demonstrate 1t as the
elimination of his disagreement with
his co-workers sent in his resignation.
It is stated that the hospital authorl-
ties are willing to take DR.. Cohen S
advice in the matter if he will recall
his resignation.

Chicago March s.-A pathetic
story from 1.-The white slave underworld
was made public today by the Illinois

inmate of an Immoral resort and her
identity was concealed under the ini-
tials "E. G."; she is hospital a
complete wreck.
Brought before the committee in an
almost helpless condition, she testified
that she TUNED to a life of shame af-
ter her husband died, leaving her to
support a small child.

the details were revolving.
"Where is she now?" asked one of
the probers.
"She's at the hospital, too answer
ed the girl, and she sobbed. ~ guess
she's about gone."

hell on earth," said Senator Juul today

Rush Into Streets on Cold
Morning in Flimsiest of
Night Garments.
THRILLING RESCUES.
Although Handicapped by Water
Freezing and Bursting Hose, Fire
men COnfine Flames.

New York, March 8.-With only the
fimsiest of night garments to protect
them from the better cold Of an early
March morning fully one hundred
men, women and children, guests in
the fashionable Hotel Burlington, al
10, West 30th street, fled into the
early today when the building caught
fire. Many of the women had to be
carried down fire escapes and ladders
by fremen and police. others were
assisted through swirling smoke across
the window ledges into the Holland
House next door.
A panic among the guests followed
the discovery of the fire which origin
ated in a store room on the ground
floor. Volumes of thick black smoke
penetrated the entire building and the
guests awakened from sound sleep
by the alarmbells missed the fire es-
capes in their fright and rushed to the
corridors shrieking for help.
Mrs. William H. Clagget, Jr., of
Washington, made her way across
ledge not two feet wide into the Hol-
land House. She then assisted Mrs.
]. H. Harmon and Mrs. c. 3. Stock
well, resident guests of the hotel, to
safety by the same route.
Herbert S. Houston, vice-president
of Doubleday, Page G. Co., Mrs. Hous-
ton and their relatives, DR.. and Mrs.
p. NJ. Burdick of Brattleboro, VT,
were on the top floor, but were assist
ed to the street by means Of fire es-
cape.
Sixty-fve-year-old Henry Smith,,
who has been an employe of the no.
tel for % years, ran his elevator
through the smoke for eight trips and
took to the street many Of the guests.
Although handicapped by freezing
and bursting hose the firemen manag-
I'd to keep the fire confined to the
ground floor of the structure.
At the Holland House it was said Ia
ter in the day that at least score Of
women rescued in their night clothes
were under the care of physicians
there and are threatened with pneu-
monia.
After rescuing every one in the burn
ing hotel the fremen made many trips
to the rooms to save jewelry and 9TH
er valuables, and one woman whose
hysterical grief had caused spectators
to believe she had child in the ruins
was made happy by the return OF her
pct poodle, rescued from smoke and
flame by gallant fireman.

DEVISED LISTS Of
DEAD BY EXPLOSION
Cold Weather Will Delay
Recovery Of Bodies Of
Victims.
TALES OF HEROISM,
One Baltimorean Picked up Eighteen
Men-Many Volunteers as Rescuers
and Risked Their Lives.

Baltimore, Md, March 8.-Reviset
lists of dead in the explosion on the
steamer Alum Chine this morning in
dicated that the number will not ex-
ceed 30. Cold weather will delay the
recovery of bodies and it may be
weeks before the number is correctly
given. The injured number twice thar
many, and some of these may die.
Tales of heroism of waterfront men
mark the second day al:er the great
quantity of dynamite "let 60" John
Goodhues, a ship chandler, was almost
r2longside the tug, barge and tramp
steamer that exploded He was in .
tiny gasoline launch and was running
away for dear life when he thought
of rescue. Back alongside as the al
most tidal wave receded, he picked
up Is men and then twisted around
toward Sparrow's Point. Captains of
tugs gathered up many more injured.
There were amny volunteers who
rushed in with no thought of them
selves. That is why the death list is
no larger.
When the tug Atlantic, which stran-
gcly did not sink from the force of
the explosion, caught fire from stern
to stern, the Tugs Curtais, Bay and
Reihl went alongside. They carried
off her Injured and not a man aboard
was left behind, and then took tow.
The vessel was nearly to her city dock
when she went down.
Tie monetary loss is placed at
about 100000. The Dawson Chemi-
cal Company, at Hawks Point, suf-
fered more than anything else on
shore. 1t is recalled here that gun
tests at Fort Armistead, larger than
the dynamite ship, did such damage
that the government paid the concern
S275,0O0. Examinations are being
made today to see how much the
stock was damaged during the unprec-
edented vibrations.
Captain Anstey Of the Alum Chine,
escaped because he was ashore, he
was at the Customs House getting his
clearance papers.
The collier Jason was left floating
only by a freak. Pictures of damage
done her two miles away show fearful
destruction. Death reached odd places.
Two men in the dining room were
killed and every bit of furniture
wrecked. The wireless house was
shattered. And a photographer, the
same distance away in another direc
ton saw smoke from the Alum Chine
in time to snap at The instant of the
explosion and bring in pictures of the
column of debris at the exact moment
the steamer went into the air.
