SOCIETY WOMEN AS
CLERKS IN PARIS STORES

Rise to Emergency Created by Draft
of Men Into the Army Hotel
Doors Closed. Girls Sell Tickets
in Underground Stations While
Boys Act as Guards on Train.
War Levels All Classes
Paris, Aug. THE women of Pa
ris rose today to the emergency Gre
|ated by drafting men of the city for
the army. Society women took
place of men clerks in stores to sell
necessities, Young girls sold tickets
in thesunderground stations. Others
acted as walters in cafes.
Groceries and meat shops were
run by women. Small boys were
put on as guards on the underground
trains. The motormen were aged,
grey-haired men, ineligible for SER
vice in the army. Paris enjoys the,
novelty of women doing mems work
and the women apparently do too.
The fashionable stores ON the Rue
de la Paix are nearly all closed.
Partisan creations" can be bought
almost for nothing. but the Ameri-
cans here are not purchasing. first
because of the difficulty in obtain
ing cash and, second because rail-
roads are refusing TO take anything
but hand BAGGAGE.

LITTLE CAUSE OF BIG WAR.

j There is no sonjak of Novibazar
any more; it is divided between Ser,
via and Montenegro. But IT'S ghost
and it's regretted memory were
enough. in all likelihood, to set on
foot this giant war.
The sanjak was, in 1903, strip
of land smaller than Connecticut. and
with but 10000 inha bitants, be-
longing without shadow Of doub:
to Turkey, if treaties could be re-
spected. BY the treaty of Berlin.
Austria-Hungary was permitted to
garrison some of the towns. but the
civil administrations was left to Tur-
key; wherein its status differed from
that of Bosnia herzegovina, nomi-
nally for Turkey as suzerain.,
: The sanjak divided MoEten :gro
and ,Servia. 1t was a wedge be-
tween the Southern Serbs, through
which the Austlians planned to
drive railway, and with it their
rule, to Salenica. That railway
would have been a LINKING of, the
one running to Mitrovitza from the
south with the military line from
Sarajevo to the Servant ontene,
grin boundaries. ~.
When in October, 1908. Austria
Hungary tore up the Berlin treaty
and definitely annexed Brosnia
Herzegovina, she Withdrew her
troops from the sanjak, fearing
armed resistance and wishing to
placate Turkey. There vas no
war-then. Russia had not recov-
cred from her bout with Japan.
The Austrian Forward" party
was disgusted. Won Aehfenthan
was almost in disgrace for overcau-
tiousness. 1t had not been neces-
sary to leave the sanjak; however,
thew could reoccupy in some time.
Some time did not come. With
the tripoli and Balkan wars Europe
became increasingly sensitive.
When the Balkan nations were fight
ing, and it would have been easy TO
seize the strip, Austria was forced
by Europe to forego lanG-gra bling in
the general interest, to prevent ex
actly what has happened now.
;. The murder of the Archduke gave
her an opportunity. He went to
Sarajevo against the protest and en-
treaties of Servian representatives TO
Vienna, who knew the local feeling
and who had most to lose bv any
disturbances. and the actual murder
was a subject. However, neither
these facts nor the way in which
Servia offered to swallow the Aus
TRAN .terms-all but allow ing AUS
tan officers to hold inquiries into the
murder or Servian soil-availed to
stop the Austrians attack aimed
straight at the sanjak.
And then followed what has fol-
wed.-New York. World.

 Wounded in Fight

Laurel, Miss, August 1O.-(Special.) Dennis Parker, well known young man of this city, was stabbed and mortally wounded about 10 o'clock last night Par ker and two other parties, Fayette Holli- field and Forest Stratton. were together and medical aid was summoned. but Par ker never regained consciousness He was hurried to the Jesse Gates hospital. where he died in a short time after his arrival there.
 Hollifield and Stratton claimed that Parker was cut by an unknown negro who made his escape in the darkness They, it seems, told different stories. however, and were both locked up to await further developments.
 Parker, Hollifield and George Sage had a difficulty on the Fourth of July and Sage was slightly wounded by Parker, who used small knife. The officers do not believe the story that a negro is involved. and Hollifield will be held until the facts are brought out more fully stratton was released.

BUYING IN WESTCHESTER
Prince Says War Has Little
Effect on Sales.

L. Ward Prince, secretary Of the
Scarsdale Estates, the Gedney Farm
Company, and other Westchester Coun-
~ real estate interests said yesterday
that the European war has not inter
fered with their sales.
1.-THE European war is having little
effect upon our realty market in West
chester County" he said. This may
be simply a coincidence, but 1t is true,
nevertheless, and convinces US that the
war is not going to stop our market.
"If there is any explanation for this
situation. il is due to the fact that the
character of our selling is non-specu-
latiye. Men who wanted home on our
properties have been saving up for this
rurpose for years, and it makes little
difference to them whether stocks are
I'M or down. The money IS available
and the home a necessity. The reports
from our sales forces show that we
have more prospects in line for fall
huying than we have ever had at this
time Of year. Unless things take de-
cidedly bad turn in the next few weeks
which is not likely, our August sales
will be quite a little above those OF
August last year"
