States should be destroyed tomorrow

about the subject that unless radical
and immediate measures are adopted

DISASTER He HAD F0RESsEN
Uncle Jud's Worst Fears Verified In
Calamity That he Had
Looked For.

Uncle Jud was enjoying his nrst ex.
p~erlence In the line OF railway travel.
For years tho trains of the Il. ID. & q.
had Numbered past his farm. and the
old gentleman had watched them
plunglng madly ahead. confident OF
but ono thing. that sooner or later
something would happen TO land them
I'm the ditch. He had often vowed
that the Lord hadn't intended mar 10
be whizzing along at 80 lively n pace,
and added that he for one wasn't go
ing to tempt him by trusting his pre-
cious neck TO anything so reckless.
But the years passed n the trains
continued 90 speed by. until Uncle
Jud's fear OF terrible consequences
faded away. and now at last he had
yielded to his sons frequent Invita-
lions TO get aboard the Flyer. and
come TO visit him In the city. The
train was laundering at a terrific rate
OF speed, and then the thing hap
pened. An open switch turned the
trick that Uncle Jud had for years
been anticipating. The engine was
derailed. and the plunging car, went
after II. but. the latter being of steel
construction. no serious damage was
done to anybody. Uncle Jud's cal
twisted. turned. cavorted. and finally
landed on its side at the side OF the
road. ending In a nice soft spot thai
seemed almost TO have been made FOL
just such an emergency. The old gen
tleman gathered himself together ant

ET0N AND B0LER0 JACKETS
Both Are Short, deliberately Trimmed
and Fancifully Cut, ls the Edict
Of Fashion.

The new jacket suits are really
novel. In an indeinable way some Of
them suggest the Elton and bolero;
others more than hint OF the cutaway.
All are comparatively short. a great
deal trimmed even though the skirt
Is plain and more or less fancifully
cut. A number Of box effects are
c~atalogued, and these, too, show much
originality. The severe, mannish coat,
for the first time since it's introduc-
ton, seems to have no real standing,
though it may attain q prestige before
the summer Is on as a foil to the
novelties.
A box coat with a skirt of simple
drapery, making together a model that
has appealed very strongly to those
who have seer 1t, was made up in
the original as follows: Serge in one
of the new brownish tones was the ma
terial and color, and there was. first,
a foundation banded at the foot with
cotton corduroy, 1t banded in turn
narrowly with the serge. Over the
two was hung the tunic, the two edges
crossing d~iagonally in front just above
the corduroy and its foot landings,
which show merely as an inset.
The coat has plain side sections that

cut straight, but have what fulness
