OSCAR BAKER IN
SERIOUS TROUBL E
Young ShelbyvilIe Citizen
Is Held On Forgery Charge
At BateSVille.

Oscar Baker, a young citizen OF
Shelbyville, was arrested at Bates
vile Friday on the charge of having
attempted to cash a forged check.
The allegation is that Baker en-
tered the Union Bank & Trust Co.
and presented a check on the First
National Bank of Batesville. The
check called for SIS, was made
payable to John Brown, and bore
the supposed signature of w. E,
Pinkston, a merchant at MObley.
Cashier Sims was suspicious of for
gery and told the young man to
wait a few moments until ne could
telephone to the First National
Bank, whereupon the young man
declared he was in a hurry and
would be forced to leave He did
leave the building, taking the check
with him.
After Cashier Sims of the Union
Bank had communicated with Of
fcials of the First National Bank
and satisfied himself that the check
was a forgery he summoned an Of
fcer, who apprehended Baker a
short distance north Of the city, he
being on his return home in his
wagon.
When placed under arrest Baker
protested his innocence, declaring
The was not the man who handled
the check. 1t is said, however, that
Cashier Sims and other parties
identify him as the guilty man.
Young Baker is married and has
a family. His relatives are among
the county's best people. In con-
nection with the case, the BatesviIle
Daily Guard Of Monday said:
Oscar Baker, the young man
who it is alleged attempted to pass
a forged check at the Union Bank
and Trust Co. one day last week
was released from Jail today, friends
having filled his bond. He returned
to his home at ShelbyVille this af'
ternoon. Baker still protests his in
nocence of the crime with which
he is charged, though the evidence
is strong against him. 1t is believ
ed by some who have noted hi;
conduct since his confinement here
in Jail that he is suffering from {
deranged mind, his actions lately
having substantiated that belief il
is said"

taffeta and tunic and blouse Of whits
crepe showing designs in vivid green
or vivid pink or some other really
bright color. Uniformly the blouses
are closed at the front and those for
afternoon occasions made with v
shaped necl1s and soft collars or frills
Of lace or net finishing the edges while
the sleeves are just little below the
elbows, the length that is a slightly
abbreviated three-quarter being ths
preferred one Of the season.
Everything that Is bright Is fash
ionable and brightness belongs to
youth. A most attractive little tango
gown is made Of silk crepe in cerise
showing a broche effect in self color.
There is a simple little skirt that Is
slightly draped in burnous effect at
the back and there is a short circular
tunic that fares well Just below the
hips. The bodice is made Of chiffon
in matching color over white with the
trimming portions Of the crepe and
the edges Of the tunic and the trim
ming portion Of the blouse are embroid-
cred in a combination Of white and
gold threads, the gold however being
Of the rather subdued antique tone
and not aggressively bright. As pretty

Of for a summer resort is made Of
light weight taffeta that we used to
know as summer silk" white with a
check formed by a line Of black so

plated ruehes Of white ribbon showing
black picot edge. There is guimpe
Of soft white shadow net and the girdIe
is Of white ribbon but it is held by a
big velvet rose Of brilliant red.

SPRING FASHIONS ARE
PECULIARLY ADAPTED
TO HOME DRESSMAKING
By MAY MANTON

are TO be found in cotton and linen
as we'll as in silk and in such variety
Of coloring that some one can be found
to harmonic with almost any plain
color. Whether you are making a
new costume or whether you are re-
making an old one, the stripes are the
smartest Of all things and they are
used in combination with almost every
seasonable material. This particular
gown happens to be brown with the
bright stripes on a brown foundation
and brown is exceedingly smart but
the season offers a great variety Of
colors.
Crepe finished materials and MORE
effects are extremely fashionable. It
is almost impossible to go amiss in
choosing either ono or in combining
the two or in combining one or the
other with a contrasting material.
The dress Of MORE that is shown
here is designed especially for small
women and for young girls but the
models Of similar sort are quite as
fashionable for the more mature folk.
The circular founces over the plain
skirt give just the fare and breadth
that spring fashions demand The
crepe de chine that makes the sleeves.
collar and little vestee makes charm
ing contrast with the MORE and there
is still another effect Of contrast found
in the girdle Of satin ribbon.
For spring, the all silk costume Is an
excellent one but, for the warmer
weather Of real summer, one Of the
beautiful cotton materials would be
desirable and they are shown in Won
derful variety, in plain colors and in
lowered and embroidered effects.
Taffeta is combined with cotton crepe
in great many handsome costumes
and this one would be pretty with the
skirt and lower founce Of taffeta, the
upper Aounce and blouse of crepe show
ing an embroidered design.
In a general way, little girls COS
TUNES follow the trend Of the season
but there are always certain modi6ca-
tons made with reference to their
needs. This year japanese sleeves are
favorites and the skirts take rather
straight lines but plaits are in vogue,
nevertheless, even though they are
pressedhat. The little frock shown is
both smart and practical and it is just
as pretty with blouse Of white worn
over a colored skirt as it is Of one
material. The skirt is joined to a belt
but the blouse is slipped on over the
head and held in place by belt which,
in this case, is black patent leather.

sleeves and with the help Of drapery
and frilIs and We do not combine them
with really voluminous skirts. Taf-
feta seems some way TO belong to GER
tain effects by right Of natural selec-
tion and it is a pronounced favorite
for combination with other materials
and for trimming as well as for entire
costumes. Moire effects, broche
effects, all the pretty Powered fabrics
are greatly in vogue and Roman
stripes are used to enliven quiet
tones wherever they can be placed.
In addition. we are having marvel
ously beautiful cotton fabrics embroid-
cred and finished with borders Of one
sort or another and one Of the pret-
tiest, most picturesque features or
prevailing styles is to be found in the
white costumes worn with short.
iaunty little coats Of silk. gol6ne or
similar material in really bright color.
Undoubtedly il is a season Of color
but that does not necessarily mean
color for the entire costume. Bits Of
brightness against white or a quiet
tone often mean a costume Of
the best effect, and the vivid
silks, the rich brocades. the
wonderful ribbons are all adapted
to such use. One Of the costumes in
the picture shows combination Of
brown taffeta with bright Roman
stripes on a brown background. The
second is combined with little coat Of
cerise with a gown Of embroidered
white voile. The third shows lowered
crepe in combination with plain. They
are all in the height Of style and they
are all typical, for such combinations
and such effects make the essential
features Of summer styles.
Evening journal., 1914-04-10

CELDOM II ever have we had a
season that was so perfectly
adapted to the home dress
makers needs. Even to hint at such
a thing as the possibility Of the great
designers considering such a question
savors a little of the absurd and it is
probable that they would be somewhat
scandalized to learn that they have so
far benefited humanity but, never
theless, the fact remains. If your gown
is smart, it must be loose; therefore, no
particular fit is required and, If you
have a good pattern, the work is easy.
1t is always the plain, simple things
that are difficult. Draped skirts and
tunics, frills and ruches are compara-
lively simple to handle. While it might
require an expert to create the design
for one Of the fashionable costumes,
it requires only the skill Of the ordi-
nary needle-woman to manufacture the
gown when the design is supplied.
Also, if ope may dare TO hint at such
a thing, the tendency towards the use
Of two materials contributes to
economy. So many women have
gowns left over from last season that
it is desirable to renew that such a
fashion can not fail to be a practical
one.
Look at the costume at the extreme
left of the picture. Suppose you have
a skirt left over from last year, how
easy to make the tunics and blouse Of
some pretty lowered material that
harmonizes with the plain one and to
create a new costume. To be sure this
skirt is draped but you could use the
tunics over a plain one or perhaps the
skirt could be re-cut. In any case, the
suggestion for blouse and tunic Of
different material is a good one but be
sure you do not make the mistake Of
losing the costume idea. Nothing must
appear to be remodelled and no hint
of patch work must be apparent. In
this illustration, you will notice that
the frills Of the blouse are Of plain ma
terial, so connecting the two and some
such treatment is important. This
particular gown is made from lowered
crepe and plain taffeta but there are so
many materials that could be put to-
gether in the same way that it would
require a deal Of space to enumerate
them. So long as the plain and flow
cred materials are harmonious all the
essentials Of fashion are served.
Incidentally, the Hmono blouse could
be run up in an hour or so yet it is
one Of the smartest models the season
has to offer.
Roman stripes are so much used that
they are really important. On the
second costume Of the group, they are
used in contrast with plain colored
eponge and the eponge is a light weight
wool while the stripes are silk. It
would be hard to find a smarter effect
than the two make and, besides serving
for this particular costume, they make
a good suggestion for others. Stripes

claim that taffeta Is being somewhat
overdone and will not be worn by the
most exacting Of womanlxind but It is
doubtful II that statement will stand.
Present fashions with their ruffies,
their frills and their boufant effects
make tafeta almost a necessity, in
combination with some other material
If not for entire gowns. The softer
silks, such as charmeuse satin, crepe
meteore and the like are wonderfully
beautiful but they do not lend them
selves to the pulled tunics and to the
general fare that is necessary for the
latest fashions.
Among interesting materials Of the
crepe weave are very quaint and
attractive fabrics woven in certain
old-fashioned flower designs. called in
some instances Dolly Madison crepe
and in others Colonial crepes. and
which are charming by whatever name
they are called. They combine with
taffeta to bring about really perfect
costumes and they are greatly used
in that way. All the styles Of the season
have a general youthful effect, which
is perhaps one great element in their
fascinating and the models lend them
selves to young girls costumes with
the greatest case.
Recently one Of the important
French designers has sent over some
interesting designs evolved especially
for the younger contingent and, while
they do not differ materially from
those Of the more mature folk in cut
and general style, the color treatments
are essentially youthful and worthy
of consideration. The pulled tunics
with outstanding frills finishing the
edges Of the skirts suit the girls to a
nicety. A very fascinating little after
noon dress is Of white taffeta made in
this way with blouse Of lace flouncing
the design Of which is outlined in
cerise. A most fascinating dress Of a
slightly simpler sort is made with skirt
of white crfpe and double pulled tuaic
and blouse Of a Dolly Madison crepe
showing wonderful little punches Of
flowers on a pink background. The
crepes showing quaint designs sug-
gestive of the Cubist idea suit the
girls we'll also and very lovely COS

M'GRAW AFTER KAUFF.
Federal League Sluseer is Sought by
 Giant Leader.


 It is said in baseball circles that the national commission has secretly given the Giants permission to get Benny Kauff, who led the Federal league in batting this season. McGrawl is very anxious to sign Kauff, but, like other hurlers. he must get his clearing pa pers from the national commission be- fore he can return to organized base ball. Kauffs last engagement in organized baseball was with the Hartford club of the Eastern association, which club sold him to Indianapolis. He jumped the Indianapolis Association club to go with the Federals of that city. The members of the commission de- nied the story when they were asked about it, although veteran reporter claimed to have overheard Garry Herr mann in conversation on the subject When the gates are lifted for Kauff Armando Marsans, the Cuban jumper Of the Cincinnati team, also will be invited to come back to the Reds un- der his old contract.

It was then that Hank dreamed of some day becoming a big league star, but even in his most rosy dreams 1t is doubtful if he ever imagined himself being the hero of the worlds championship fight. Hank probably limited his dreams to pictur- ing the days when he would be a mem Der of a major league club-and let 1t go at that.

He was too big and clumsy to navigate around the first sack so the Little Ma poleon started remode1ing Sim into a backstop.

NO TRAFFIC IN PANAMA ,.As
 CANAL FOR TEN DAYS.
Result of Landslide on Eastern Side
 Near Gold Hill. .s-5 s--

Panama. Oct. 16.-Colonel George " Goethals, governor of the Panana canal zone, tonight said it would be ten days before the canal would again be ready for traffic, which has been sus- pended as a result of the landslide on the eastern side of the canal near Gold Hill on Wednesday.
 Colonel Goethals said that he would have the canal ready for 30-foot draft ships by Oct. 27, barring accidents. It is planned by then to have the channel 100 feet wide and 30 feet deep along the west bank, where the channel was least affected in that section, there being an average depth of 20 feet.
 The slide was not as serious as at first reported, although it will require many months of constant dredging to regain the full width of 300 feet and the depth of 45 feet. Captain Hugts Rodman, superintendent of transportaG tion of the Panama canal, is already preparing to put the maximum num- Der of ships through on the first day that the waterway is passable There are now 14 ships anchored at the ter minal ports.s and others are coming.

ITALIAN MINISTER OF
 FOREIGN AFFAIRS DEAD.
Not Expected to Alter .ItaIy's Dete--
 imitation to Remain Neutral.

Washington, Oct. S16.-The death to- day of Marquis San Di Guiliano, the Italian minister of foreign affairs, will not result in any alteration of Italy's determination to remain neutral, in the opinion of officials here. The Ital l. ian ambassador, eMacchi Di Cellere, said his country's purpose was not to take sides in the European struggle unless her national safety was men aced. Individual changes in the minis try, he said. would not be likely to alter that policy.
 Reports to the embassy have tended to discredit statements to the effect that the Italian people were eager to join the allies, indicating rather strong popular support of the governments s policy.
 Prof. Ferdinando Martini is men, toned here as the possible successor of Marquis San Guiliano. Professor Martini is at present acting foreign minister and is considered one of Italyis most able statesmen.
 Tommasso Titoni, Italian ambassa- dor to France, the predecessor of the late minister, also has been mentioned as possible candidate
