Military in mode and tone" is the
dictum of Cleveland manufacturers
for fall and winter styles in ladies'

Skirts will be plain. and only
straight lines will be'tolerated. Jack

placed by stiff military collars and
cuffs to match. Milady walk and
carriage must conform strictly with
her new mode in dress. a long
straight step and stiff carriage of the
body will be the only mode approach

and other people who lay down the
law of dress are marooned in Paris

SUNS ECLII'SE WAS
ON THIS MORNING

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2l.-Astron-
omers and star gazers in many parts
of the world were up at sunrise to-
day to observe the elipse of the sun.
For just few seconds after sun
rise, observers in the United States
and North Of Washington and as far
west as Indianapolis were permitted
just the slightest part OF the moons
shadow on the sun. The map prepar-
ed by the naval observatory at Wash
ington shows that the path of totality
of the elipse began up in the extreme
north polar region OF the western
hemisphere. 1t extends eastward to
Norway, Sweden. Russia and Persia.
In this zone. about 100 miles wide,
the elipse was visible in its totality
for about four minutes.
Many governments went to large

sion. II had been planned by private
enterprise some time ago to send an
expedition to observe the eclipse in
Persia but this was abandoned when
1t was learned that II would neces-
state the invasion extremely wild and
remote country inhabited by tribes
men who might make astronomers
targets for spear hurling. When II
was considered that all OF the obser-
vations must be made in four minutes
and that the slightest hitch on a
cloud would spoil them. all thoughts
OF an expedition were forgotten.
Many scientists who wished to OBJ

war went to Riga and Kief, Russia,
which were both directly in the path
of the total eclipse Beyond assist

Peaceful TRADE ooNoUEsTs

Business men OF the United States
who are planning to find new mar
kets in Couth America for products
shut out of Europe by the war should
open their eyes at once TO the fact
that trading with Latin American re-
publcs must be reciprocal.
Exports from South America an
nually exceed the imports in value by
5000, 100000 Exports TO the amount
of s700.000,000 go to Europe. while
in the past only $25, 100000 worth Of
South American goods come to this
country. To secure the good will
and the trade OF the South Americans
We must begin to provide markets
for considerable part of the $780,
100000 OF products at present barred
from Europe. We must provide ships
Ninety per cent Of the imports Of
our southern neighbors is carried in
the United States congress is taking
steps now to help provide the ships.
The golden promise of this rich
field OF trade Is arouslng every COM
mercial center in America Chambers

and means OF reaching II. Necess-
ity in time, no doubt. would lead
each manufacturing community or
branch of industry 10 blaze its own
road. How much better would be an
organized advance! Why should not
the tradesman of America learn
something from the militaries OF Eu-
rope? Let them mobilize for tnis
march on the frontiers OF new trade.
Detached battallons OF commerce
would be easily defeated. on the other
hand, well planned campaign of
peaceful invasion would bring valu-
able and lasting results.
The way TO assure victory is TO
link together the activities of cham
bers OF commerce and allied organi-
zations throughout the United states.
Following out the military line OF
thought. a sort OF general staff should
be organized from among the best
equipped leaders in various lines OF
industry. other captains of COM
merce and finance. acting as division
and corps commanders. should oper-
ate under the direction OF the gen
oral staff.
The first step is to mobilize the
commercial army OF the United
States. The time to mobilize is now.

Capt. ]. A. Hoogewerff, superintend-
ent of the naval observatory.
The eclipse was of value chiefly in
correcting the worlds time, although
usually this is so precisely calculated
from the movements or the stars that
1t doesn't vary the slightest fraction
of second. Time is tailed by clocks

observatory in Washington in which
the temperature does not change the
tenth part of a degree during the en-
tire year, and II is not expected that
the observations of the eclipse to-
day will necessitate the re-setting of
these clocks.

States for a few minutes on Febru-
ary 3. 1916. weather permitting. No

PRISONERS TO BE BIG PROBLEM
Housing and Guarding of Men Cap
tured Will Be Huge Task.

LONDON. England. Aug. PA
troublesome problem of war is likely
tc be the housing and guarding of
prisoners More than 5000 Germans
have been captured. The Belgians
are sending many of these prisoners
into France
When the big fighting with at least
100000 men engaged begins. the
number of prisoners probably will
run into vast and embarrassing totals
on both sides.
There will be exchanges of pris-
oners but these are not always easy
to arrange. Another difficulty is ex-
pected in the matter of the commits
sariat for the large armies. The Ger
mans are now confronted with this
gigantic task.

Throws Lamp at Her and forgcts IL

Michael Kilday was sentenced by Judge Fuller of the police court Thurs. day morning to 30 days in jail for inc toxication, 30 days for breach of the peace and 6 months for larceny with costs of $9.79. Kilday has bad record, the last time he was before the court was for stealing chickens. Wednesday he was arrested upon complaint of.his old mother 80 years of age who appear ed in court against him. The old lady kept two pigs and Tuesday she sold one. Her son knowing she had the money learned that she had it hidden in the bosom of her dress and snatched 1t from her. Wednesday she demand ed that he return it and he shied a lamp at her. The son said he had been drinking and did not remember throw ing anything at his mother and swore he had not taken the money from her. He said she had given nim a ten dollar bill to get her some whiskey with and the $7.50 found on him when searched was the change from that bill.
 Thomas Brierty, who was before the court Wednesday morning charged with drunkenness and had his case continued, was again before the court on the same charge Thursday morning and was sentenced to 50 days and costs of $l7.09 on the two charges. One oth- CT drunk got 30 days and costs.
