wives and children that they will kill
them by slow starvation unless they
go back to work with their COM
plants unheard.
What the mine owners lack is not
so much human feeling, as magma
ton. If 70 women and children are
trampled to death under their eyes,
they can suffer with the women and
children and raise money to bury the
dead, but if 10000 are dying of slow
starvation because of their stubborn
ness the only sensation they get is
one of satisfaction and pleasure.
It is really unfortunate for the
country that these mine owners have
no imagination.

What 1t Means to the Employer.

liability insurance premiums.
Relieves him of long legal battles

What 1t Means to the Public.

their families.
knowledge that poverty and the
pauper's grave are claiming fewer

Another step in the great battle for
humanitarian principles.
Less inconvenience from labor dis
turbances, and greater prosperity.

POLICE RUSH UNEMPLOYED

Four hundred jobless men assem-

short speeches marched down State

the loop and giving silent demon
stration to the thousands celebrate

There was no noise made, no BAN

their miserable conditions.
1t was the intention Of the paraders
to stop at the States Restaurant and
silently protest agains hundreds din
ming while thousands were homeless
and hungry and then proceed to the
Hearst building and demand work.
When they reached Van Buren,

MONKEY FUR NOW.
Wraps and Gowns Are Trimmed With
This Novel PeIt,

The monkeys Of Africa must view
the fashion for their fur with disap-
prevail. They are a scare breed, these
f%urbearing monkeys, and for years
they have been unmOlested save by
the savage warriors who fringed their
shields with monkey fur. But now
fashion has chosen the monkey as one
of her pets, just as she did some TWEEN
ty odd years ago.
The fur is used generally in the form
of a fringe, although some muffS and
collars in monkey are shown and will
doubtless be carried later. But it is as
Il fringe of black that monkey adorns
the new frOckS and hats.
One striking evening frock of pink
satin showed a long tunic Of pink net
edged with monkey and a collar of
beaded net with a broad fringe Of the
same fur. Sometimes. too. it is COM
bined with velvet. And many Of the
late summer hats of white satin show
4 band Of black monkey fur around
the crown.

Frills and Fancies In Woman Sphere
DYEING CARPETS.

Cheap faded rugs and carpets that
are not too badly worn should be dyed
all over.
To do this successfully it is first nee
essary to scrub the rug. then rinse 1t.
Mix the dye and keep it we'll stirred
in the vessel, so that the color will be
even.
While the rug is still wet apply the
dye with Il clean whitewash brush. 1t
colors evenly this way. If the rug Is
dyed on the floor place a great many
newspapers under it TO absorb the
moisture.
1t should be thrown double e a
line to dry or else allowed to dry on
h floor. 1t will shrink slightly.
For a cotton rug which turns a dirty
white use such colors as dark green.
mahogany. red and delft blue. Jute
rugs may be dyed in a similar manner,
but the dye in this ease should be ap-
piled to the dry rug.

N OF ENGLISH KINGS.
Pieces From Windsor to Complete
Suits In the Tower.

Pieces From Windsor to Complete
Suits In the Tower.
Pieces Of armor belonging to suits
shown in the Tower of London, but
which have hitherto been in the collec.
tons at Windsor castle, are to be re.
turned, by order of the king, to com
plete those suits Of armor Of which
they originally formed part, says the
London Standard.
The armor in question belonged to
Henry VIII, William Somerset, Earl
Of Worcester, and Sir John Smythe. OF
Henry Wills armor two grandguards,
one pasguard extra pieces for the
joust), four gauntlets, a pair of saddle
steels and the great brayette have been
transferred, all pieces Of great historic
and artistic interest. With these is the
half suit of the Earl Of Worcester, Of
which the helmet alone weighs close
on twenty pounds. The decoration OF
this and of the Smythe armor is the
same as that on the armors which
have always been shown in the Tower.
That on the Smythe suit is extremely
beautiful and almost in its original
condition. Delicate figures Of the car.
dinal virtues are engraved in gilt on a
"sanguine' background.
Besides these there is a shield of
Charles l. when prince of Wales. These
additions are by far the most impor.
tant since the year 1861. when the ar,
NOR was collected from Greenwich,
Hampton court and other royal palaces
and stored in the Tower of London.
The armor is now exhibited in the
White tower.

PETTIC0ATS FOR FALL.
Black and White Models Are Now and
Very Smart.

Petticoats for fall are very somber
in color. although there are limited
showings Of cerise. empire green. king
blue, royal purple and yellow. says the
Dry Goods Economist. The shades
which dominate the lines. however, are
dark green. tete de negre. navy, the
deepest shades OF burgundy. dull tones
Of wistaria and dark shades Of taupe.
In some of the newest skirts black
and white %tlounces are used on a black
skirt. or a white model has trimming
bands of black. Deep tiOunces of black
and white are also used as a finish to
white petticoats. In many cases this
combination is made by horizontally
joining the stripes before the accor-
dion plating is made.
Black chiffon over white is much
seen in exclusive merchandise.

BOX FOR BABY.
Dainty Receptacle For the Safe Keeping
Of the Little Ones Wardrobe.

Dainty Receptacle For the Safe Keeping
Of the Little Ones Wardrobe.
A woman who wanted a covered re-
ceptacle for her baby's wardrobe and
wished to combine it with Il baby bas-
ket took an old shirt waist box with a
hinged lid and had it recovered with
a r%ose-pink denim inside and out. The
lid was filled with cotton batting on
top to make it comfortable when need
ed for a seat.
Inside she had a little tray about
three inches deep. This was a plain
four sided frame covered with Gre
tonne. The frame had a c~retonne bot.
tom with two wooden Stats across to
make it firm. The Stats were also ere
tonne covered.
On n side Of this tray were placed
the powder box brushes, scissors and
the usual contents of the baby basket;
on the other the little shirts and bands
safely kept from dust by the lid. The
whole was easily lifted out with two
loops of cretonne when the interior of
the box was to be reached. as the tray
was extremely light in weight. Under
meath the tray were kept the little
dresses and p%etticoats safe from dust
and handling.
When not in use the little box was
pushed under a dressing table in the
mothers room and was accessible at
any time.

THE WHISTLE HUNT.
Pin II Secretly on Somebody's Back
and Ask Him to Look For It.

and Ask Him to Look For It.
Tie a wooden whistle on to one end
OF a piece of string and a large safety
pin on to the other end. Those who
know how to play the game remain in
the room while the others go out. A
circle is formed. seated, and, one by
one, the others are called in. One passes
to the center Of the circle, where one
will explain to him that there is Just
one whistle in the ring. 1t is not to go
outside of the circle; nobody is allowed
to hold it. etc. While this explanation
Is taking place the one to whom his
back is turned is %pinning the whistle
to his coat. When that is done he
blows it. and that is the signal for the
hunt. You cannot imagine the fun
1t causes to see them darting first this
side. then that, catching first the hands
Of one then of another. and declaring
that they have it. When they learn
that it was fastened to them all the
time 1t Is certainly funny to see the
faces. Keep the whistle blowing; you
will laugh until your face aches.

Dress In Season.

A new veil is caught into a velvet
neckband decorated with rhinestone
or cut steel.
A charming sleeve is simply a square
Of tulle fastened into the armhole and
falling like a wing as far as the belt.
Pulled apron TUNES of silk over plait-
ed skirts of tulle and lace looped w
with roses are a charming style for
young girls dancing frocks.
Shoes become more fanciful even for
ordinary day wear. Certainly the
part they play in the perfect toilet Is
very important.

A Lofty Duel 9yI:x: =R07ncH!I1

and begin firing whenever they chose
to do SO. The road leaving Scheidegg
Is not at first steep, and it made little
difference which of the two won the
Scheidegg end.
Du Pierre. who supposed he would
fight under terms t. which he had been
accustomed. was indignant ut such an
innovation. but since | assured him
that Webster would only fight him on
the terms offered he was obliged either
to go back to Paris having had his face
slapped without having wiped out the
insult or accept the situation.
The matter was kept perfectly quiet.
Those who had witnessed the fracas
in the car were tourists and scattered
in all directions. Consequently when
one went out the next morning as the
sun was casting its first beams on the
surrounding peaks there was no one
present except the principals. their sec
ondS and Il surgeon who was stopping
ut one Of the hotels. Du Pierre won
the toss and chose to move out from
