FASHION FADS

Emerald green charmeuse is a pop

ing dress. A touch of yellow in the
corsage is worn with it for contrast
ing effect.
The crystal beaded chiffon tUnic is
as popular as ever on evening gowns.
One of the new spring coats has no
opening, but slips over the head like
a peasants blouse.
The fashionable sports coat for the
young girl is made out Of basket cloth
in the brightest possible colors:
One of the prettiest styles among
the new neckwear is the Medici collar
with a fichu.
Partisan women buy only the pref

They are between 10 and % years
old.
One girl last month earned $3.50
and was paid $43.40, almost twice the
wages she was able to earn in a store
she said.
The girls work six hours one day
and eight hours the next, in shifts.
They charge 5 cents a shine and
are not allowed to take tips from
customers.
AS a result of. their work the price
Of shoe shining has been cut in
Omaha from 10 cents to cents on
Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
The place where the girls work is
open from $50 a. m. to $3.50 p. m.
One of the young women thus en-
ployed said her husband left her with
three small children She said she
worked for a time in laundry and
then in a store, but she found the
wages barely enough to keep herself
and her three children alive.
There is minimum wage for these
workers of $40 a~month by contract.
And they are, paid so per cent of all
they earn over $50.
These young women have taken up
bootblacking simply because they
find they must earn a livelihood, but
cannot earn it at the occupations in
which women are usually employed.

INACCURATE THE MISSIONARY
CAMPAIGN With A BANQUET
And bril- LIANT ADDRESSES

Waterville Me-, Nov. 2.-(SpeciaD.-
A very successful banquet inaugural
ing the Every Member Missionary
campaign in this community was held
in the dining room of the Congrega-
tional church Monday evening with
addresses by Rev. p. H. j. Lerrigo M.
D., Rev. Horace B. Haskell and Rev.
Charles E. Ewing, former mission
aries The program will be continued
by meeting of the pastors Tuesday
morning, a demonstration meeting
Tuesday afternoon and a final round
table Tuesday night
AT the beginning of the postprandial
exercises, Arthur A Head made an
announcement of the state Commune
ty Efficiency Conference at Augusta,
Nov. 13, IA, Is.
Cecil NJ. Daggett officiated as toast
master. He opened with a number of
funny stories. He said that he could
remember when this sort of thing was
not the fashion. But now the men are
coming into their own, and are taking
their place in the affairs of the church.
Rev. Charles e. Ewing of Boston
was introduced as the first speaker.
He spoke of the satisfaction of being
an American The missionaries are
working definitely along the line of
the vision, the United States of the
World
The ancient history of China is
in b,,t
tradition that they came from Central
Asia. In China they found various
tribes, which they pushed before them.
The result is that the language of the
Aboriginal tribes has persisted on the
coast
He spoke of the difficulties in IAN
guage in China. All through the ages
china has been separated from the
rest of the world by natural barriers.
The Republican flag of China, with its
five stripes, represents the five races
of China; red for the Chinese. yellow
for Manchus, blue for the Monaghan
white for the Mohammedans, and
black for the Thibetans. He told at
some length of the import and export
trade in China. One of the things
that have had an influence in the
awakening of China has been the in
PRODUCTION of western ideas, through
literature, producing an effect that has
destroyed the old ideas without set
ting up new ones. The old things nave
passed away, the new things have not
yet fully come.
Another significant thing is the COM
ing in of education from the West In
the new China, the Chinese people are
looking to America today. 1t gives to
America the opportunity of all tie
centuries.
There has been also the evangelist
note. We have established there hos
pitfalls, churches.
To America comes the opportunity of
the. ages. Do you want China made
over In the likeness of our nation

with all that is wrong in it? Is It not
that we want to make our nation 50
that when 1t is reproduced on the
other side of the world, we shall not
be ashamed, but shall thank God for
a change and that we had a share in
it,"
Rev. Horace B. Haskell head of an
Institute in Jerusalem, spoke of the
Arabs. The Arab is the direct descend
ant of Abraham, and believes that
Mohammed was the great Prophet.
Civilization is religious matter. The
speaker then gave a detailed account
of Arabic customs. He said that pres
ent war is not the last war. The last
war will be the war Of civilizations
between Mohammed and Christ, the
sword, the symbol of revenge and the
Cross, the symbol of forgiveness.
Rev. P. H. j. Lerrigo. M. D.. former
" missionary in Alaska and the Phil
ippines, was the next speaker.
He said christianity is mans re-
ligion, and the religion of Christ Is
gripping the world today as never be-
fore. Missions mean the message OF
Jesus Christ right here in this com
munity. We believe that the task OF
Grafton is possible. He said that the
plan is that known as the every mem
Der canvass, which he proceeded to ex-
plain. IF Massachusetts, can do a
thing we'll. Maine can do 1T better"
was his declaration. He said the
plan was to reach every member with
an opportunity to contribute weekly
to church work.

ORDERS CAUSE .5,o.5:
CONFUSION IN
CHICAGO YARDS

Chicago Nov. There were excit-
ed conferences at the Union Stock
Yards today. in an effort correctly to
interpret orders issued at Washington,
quarrantining cattle. sheep and hogs
in Illinois, Michigan, Indiana and
Pennsylvania, on account of hoof and
mouth disease.
The situation as far as Illinois is
concerned was officially stated as fol-
lows:
Cattle, sheep and hogs from any
state not Under Quarantine may be
shipped into Illinois for immediate
slaughter at Chicago, Peoria or East
st. Louis and the dressed meat there
from, subject to the usual food inspec-
ton. may be shipped anywhere"
An order to this effect was issued at
the stock yards after federal officials
had announced the quarantine.
The Illinois State Livestock Com
mission also issued an order that ship
ments may be made from any points
whiting the state for immediate
slaughter at Chicago, Peoria and East
St. Louis.
AS understood at the stock yards,
the quarantine situation remains
about the same as 1t was Saturday,
that is, no livestock may be shipped
into the quarantine districts and then
shipped out again as livestock. 1t
must be Immediately slaughtered at
the places designated.
Heretofore about $4,000 cattle and
900 sheep a month have been ship
ped through the Union Stock yards,
as stockers and feeders. This, accord
ing to officials is the only business
that will be temporarily stopped by
tn eembargo.
The Chicago Stock Yards immedi-
ately is to be disinfected and all the
cattle there inspected.
A. G. Leonard, president of the
Union Stock Yards, said the quaran-
tine would not cause any serious
handicap to the operation of business
at the stock yards. Meat prices or en-
ployment would not be effeced, he
said.

abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health
statistics. Bright's disease which is

ed.
Meantime a report comes from Con-
stantinople of the seizure of another
Russian. steamer.
The floods, the Belgian army and the
British fleet has barred the way OF
the Germans southwestward along the
coast of France, the Germans are now
striking on a line stretching from
Ypres, in Belgium to La Bassee, far
Their south In France, but seemingly
with no more success. The stubborn
ness of the fighting along this line
may be gathered from the fact that
the town of Messines, which the Ger
rams now occupy has been taken and
re-taken DO less than four times since
last Saturday, each time with enor-
mo,;s losses in killed or wounded.
Attacks have been made along the en-
tire battlefront as far east as the Nesges
region, but according to the French re-
port, with the Germans have no more
success than in the west. The belief is
growing here, and 1t also expressed by
those returning from Belgium. the Ger
mans are making last effort to get
through to the coast, and that If 1t fails
they will fall back to positions which
they have prepared in central Belgium.
Although the fighting is continuous on
the east Prussian frontier in Poland and
in Galcia. there is no important change
in the situation and it is believed none
is likely until the Russian armies come
up with the Germans who are retiring
from the Vistula toward the Wharf.-The
river. On this river 1t is considered like
ly that another big battle will be fought.
The backbone of the rebellion in
South Africa seems to be broken. Col
Maritz's army in the northern Cape
Province has been completely defeat
ed Several of the raiders and most
of their men have been captured. Gen.
Beyers Is in fight and Gen. De Wet
has opened negotiations for surren-
der, 1t is said.
The German cruiser Karlsruhe has
added three more British steamers to
her list OF captures in the Atlantic
one of them being a vessel of about
10000 tons.
The Van Dyke was the steamer that
carried Theodore Roosevelt from New
York on his South American trip.
There were reports Of naval activ-
ity in the Straits of Dover.

GERMAN WIRELESS
IN MAINE WOODS

Washington, Nov. 1.-The British for
eign office, through its secret agents, 1t
attempting to locate wireless station
which the German government is sup
posed to have established in the Maine
woods for use by the German embassy
in communicating with the government
in Berlin.
Shortly after the war began, complaint
was made that the Germans were using
the recognized wireless stations in viola
ton of the spirit of this governments
neutrality Great Britain was satisfied
finally that Germany was not using the
regular stations but the British ambas-
sador suspected that messages were be-
ing sent secretly An investigation was
made to ascertain whether Germany had
established secret station on the Unitei
States coast. This investigation was
fruitless.
The suggestion was then made that
Germany was relaying messages into this
country with the assistance OF a floating
wireless station. This opinion was given
eredence among naval officers, but Brit
ish cruisers failed to locate such a plant.
Finally the British embassy was adj
vised that Germany had established
station in the Maine woods. Immediate
ly the embassy put its own secret agents
on the trail. though this is denied fiplo-
matieally.
The embassy is also said to have en-
ployed operatives of an American deteci
tive agency to try to locate the station.

TEST SHERMAN LAW AS
CRIMINAL STATUTE

Washington, Nov. 2.-In getting the
New Haven indictments, officials of
the department of justice feel that
they have the best opportunity since
the sherman law was enacted to test
it's value as a criminal statute. There
have been other indictments under
the law but in no previous cases have
so many prominent men been brought
into danger Of trial and imprison-
ment
Attorney General McReynolds before
he left the department to become a
supreme court justice, was convinced
on the evidence secured by department
Investigators that criminal proseeu-
tons were forthcoming.
His successor, Mr.. Gregory, who was
special assistant in the New Haven
case, had reached the same conclu-
sion. To add strength to their posi-
ton, however, President Wilson, when
the negotiations for a peaceful disso-
luton of the New Haven system
seemed doomed to failure. directed that
the criminal phase be gone into.
Mr.. McReynolds and Mr.. Gregory
Immediately prepared to lay the case
before the grand jury. Special coun-
sci was retained and the vast amount
of evidence obtained by the depart
ment was supplemented by witnesses.
Some of these, notably Charles S. Mel
len. president of the road in it's stage
of what the government holds to be
illegal expansion, were called in the
that they might secure i'm
munity from prosecution but with the
belief that their revelations would be
worth the price.
