FASHIONS FANCES
IN FULL FLOWER

From reports received by the Retail
Merchants association, 1t is reasona.
BILE to predict that the window dis
plays to be shown by the large retail
shops on Broad and Main streets dur
ing the united fall opening next week
will be most beautiful and original.
While the bulk OF the new styles to
be shown will naturally be exhibited
on the inside of the shops, special at
tention will be paid to the window
displays.
The decorators are busily at work
upon schemes which will arrest the
public eye and cause the passing
pedestrian to pause long enough for
a second look. Each seems to real
ize that striking window display
will prove the greatest factor In at
tracing the public beyond the street
door OF the shop.
II all goes well the windows and
show rooms will bloom forth next
wednesday morning, the esd, in the
smartest styles and newest creations
OF the season. The co-operat ton of
the leading merchants in all lines OF
trade has been elected in the move
ment and the public can expect a
startling, simultaneous exhibition of
articles which fashion DEGREES i must
use and wear in the fall OF 1914 The
opening will be held Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday. beginning We'd

On Tuesday next the voters of Virginia will
decide tho most important public question that
has been before the people OF the State in many
years That question Is whether the State OF

Those who, under various pretexts and dis

to the retention Of the saloon in Virginia. have
repeatedly denied that the saloon is an issue.

GIVE EAR, MR. PRESIDENT.

It Is little short Of pathetic to see the heads
OF the railroads throughout the country Rp-
poaling to President Wilson to soften the leg

rulse OF the public IN respect to these great
utilities corporations. Time may have been
when the railroads had things their way. and
ran them with what many considered high
hand" but that day has passed. In the last
six or eight years the railroads of the country
have been hard hit-nrst in an adverse public
sentiment, largely nodded by blatherskites for
personal political ends and lately as a result

time when operating expenses are exceedingly

new railroads that portions Of our State-par-

HUNTINGTON MINERS

 RATORs AND STRIKERS.

Fort Smith, Ark, Feb 4.-E,eyen hundred miners wifi answer the cal of the whistles at the seven mines of the Central Coal and Coke Company at Huntington, Hartford and Bonanza, Ark, tomorrow, and following an agreement reached tonight between the operators and the representatives of the miners union. The miners have been out since Wednesday, Jan. uary 2S. The men struck because of the refusal of the operators to abide by the decision of Arbitrator Steels on the question of compensa- ton of four men who had been re fused employment "on turn" Janu- ary 1 1912. At a conference today in Hartford between William McLaugh- lin, district board member of the Unit ed Mine Workers of America and Gen Supt. Mckinley of the Central Coal and Coke Company. it was agreed that the company shall pay each of the approximately HOO men $1 for each day the strike has lasted and shall also pay the four men r-- fused work Ion turn $1 for each day such employment was refused. The penalties thus imposed will aggregate nearly $8,000.
 The settlement of the strike is con sdered by the miners union officials here as a complete victory for the union, in that the Central Company will, according to the agreement reached today, obey the decree of Ar bitrator John Steel of Pittsburg Kan, allowing the four miners com pensation for the time they were idle through the company's refusal to em ploy them.

PERUVIAN REVOLT
 PROVES A SUCCESS

Washington, Feb 4.-The spectacu- lar and successful revolution in Peru finds the United States navy without single warship south of the equator The work of the revolutionists was so complete, however, that there is no need of haste in dispatching a yes sel to the scene.
 Later it may become necessary for the United States to have at hand means of supporting any representa- tions that the state department may decide to mack regarding the new government to rise on the ruins of the Billinghurst administration. So far the officials here have not been able to frame any policy. News came to the department late today from the American legation in Lima of the ar rest of President Billinghurst, but the brief dispatch did not include the plans of the revolutionists, and the Peruvian legation here had no news at all from the capitaI.
 That some embarrassment may be experienced in adjusting the pro nounced views of the administration regarding revolution-made govern ments to the present state of affairs in Peru was admitted in some quar- ters. But it was pointed out that, owing to the peculiar conditions un- der which President Billinghurst came into office a year ago with cloud on his own title, it may not Be necessary to raise the question as to the status of his successor.

The proof will show overwhelmingly, not only by the officers, but by citizens who will have no motive when testifying other than to tell the truth.
