dolman Georgette's genius has man
aged to make it fairly shapely, and al
together it is about the most attrac-
tive of the many taffeta wraps to
which we will have to become accus-
toned.
1t is cut in the voluminous style
which the mode demands and trimmed
with narrow knife-plaitings OF taffeta
and an applied design of covered cord.
A soft cable cord is used for max
ing 1t, and the taffeta is cut in narrow
bias strips and sewed over the cord.
One thing is demonstrated by styles
like that shown here, and that is that
women stick to the utterly feminine
in the construction of their apparel
no matter what excursions they may
make into the worlds of business and
politics. Therefore we shall see
them trooping to the polls to vote in
the most impractical and unbusiness-
like of clothes. 1t is the eternal fem
mime again.

plays written by Authu Lewis Tubbs,
and does not feature any particular
star, but has an equal amount of
work for each character, presenting
people in all walks Of life, ranging
from the sky scrapers of New York,
through corn fields to the jungles of

reputation for a good show into
the hearts OF the public and are
again ready to present show that
will in all probability surpass any
of the former productions. The cast
has been chosen with more care than
is usual with amateur productions,
with the result that each actor fits
his OR her respective part
The part of Martin Winn is one
of the heaviest character roles in the
play and is beautifully interpreted by
Mr.. Lionel Adams; Lonard Everett,
a son CT the soil, is played by G. ..

pension and the symptoms, Mrs. Ad-
Olson; this character carries the other
big end of the fun stick; Lindy Jane,
who helps around, Miss Myrtelle Bur-
nett; she might be little black mig
ger, but she can make you "laf.'
An important feature of this per-
formance is the fact that the play is
being thoroughly rehearsed and the
players taught to throw cut their
voices in order that patrons N the
rear of the pavilion will be able to
hear every word of the performance

scuffle that followed Coleman re-
ceived two bullets in the back CT the
head, one back Of the neck and one
ball fractured his right arm Romeo
made break for thscket about 200
yards from Jackson's place. as he
ran, Marshal Elliott, who had also
been target for the negro's bullets
and had escaped with hole through
the lapel of his coat, shot Romeo in
the right chest, neck, shoulder AMI
wrist. Marshal Elliott had suffered
a. disl0cation Of the shoulder, in wnat
manner he could not explain, and
went to DR.. Griffith's office to have
it attended to. In the meantime
Coleman was lying dead at the Jack

Lacroix defended the prisoner as
best they could. Three or four times
Sheriff Brewster took the rope from

badly shot and could not live, but the
crowd clamorea for retribution and
would not be satisfied Finally
Sheriff Brewster was seizeo and held
while the mob placed the rope around

to an automobile and dragged
through the streets until life was ex-
tinct. The body was then strung up

Invasion by Great Eastern
NeighbOr.

Brussels, via Paris, Aug. 6 Obs
a. m. )-Several thousand dead and
wounded is the toll paid by the Ger
man army of the Meuse for it's at
tack on Liege. The Belgians made
"a heroic defense, repulsing the Ger
mans after heavy and continuous
fighting.
The fortified position of Liege had
to support on Wednesday the general
shock of the German attack. The
Belgian forts resisted the advance
fiercely, and did not suffer. One Bel
gian squadron attackeG>a and drove
back six German squadrons.
Wounded Transferred.
Eight hundred wounded Germans
are being transferred to the city Of
Liege, where they will be cared for.
Prior to the attack on Liege, Gen.
Won Emmich, commanding the Ger
man army of the Meuse, Issued a
proclamation calling for an open road
through Belgium for the advance Of
his forces, and suggesting that pru-
dence would show it to be the duty
of the Belgian people to accede to
this, to avoid the horrors OF war.
Shoot Many Citizens.
The Germans committed reprisals
against the civil population of the
town of Wise, eight miles northeast
of Liege, burning the city and shoot
ing many residents.
The prompt destruction of bridges
by the Belgian troops checked the
advance of the Germans.
Belgian reconnoitering parties have
located three German army corps
the Tenth Army Corps, at Eysden; );
the Seventh Army Corps, 10000
strong, at Verviers, and the Sixth
Army Corps in another locality no:
named. The Tenth German Army
Corps is operating along the north
ern line, and, finding unexpected re-
sistence, moved further northwarl,
Invading Dutch territory at Tillburg g
and crossing the Meuse at Eysden.
Expected Nc Opposition.
A German officer taken prisoner by
the Belgians said he was amazed at
the resistance offered to the German
advance. The Germans nad been
given to understand at Berlin that
they would not be opposed in Bel
Igium.

The German troops attempted to
cross the River Meuse on a pontoon
bridge, but a sharp broadside by ths
batteries of the forts destroyed the
bridge as soon as it was completed.
Later the invaders succeeded in
crossing the river near Maestricht.
Belsians Well Pleased.
