Many of the best models are cre- IL Il. l

] Many of the best models are cre- ated il taffeta, washable chiffon and
 batistc, and not frequently one sees | these three materials combined on one design. Nothing more delight lul could be imagined than one of the latest productions of great French dressmaker. Ric hvilet blue taffeta is employed for the develop ment of the dress. 1t is embrold- cred in coarse silks, the colors being ill subducd tints of green, blue and faded rose.
 The corsage shows folds of chiffon crossed over a tight underbodice of embroidered batiste. The sleeves are raglan in effect, finished with cuffs of batiste to match the under bodice.
 With white dotted crepe and cbi;- ion frocks which are ct be in great vogue for house wear during the fall. coats of white taffeta and soft satin are shown. Many of them are eN- act duplicates of mans dinner jack ct. These semi-loOse coats are worn over skirts having plaited tunic or In conjunction skirts trimmed with many ruffles of lace or of their own material.
 Many of the newest frocks for formal wear show sashes. The most popular effects of the moment are long supple lengths of Silk that are cleverly arranged by the dressmak- CTS. They are made to mould the hips. with long ends which tie In loose bow at the back: or, they are wound lightly around the waist, pass ed forward over the hips and then tied down in front in Fatima fashion. Soft, supple satin crepe will be one of the highly favored materials dur ing the coming season. White in all probability. will be more fashion able than ever.
 Particularly smart is frocK hav- ing a skirt arranged in three gradu- ated flounces with which is wori. a sash of sapphire blue satin ribbon spotted with white. The dainty ccr- sage is Aided over the bust and there is a deep sailor collar covered with fine embroidery.
 The details of some of the advance mOuCIS are IlO6l lutGl fuu SuS gest changes that are likely to come. There is, for instance, the plastron bib, which runs into Medici collar. This appears to advantage on taf- feta frock in outer white. Starting ia loosely gathered folds and blcns- ing over a delicate green taffeta sash, it is buttoned along it's outer edges haIf-way to the bust. There is ab- ruptly curves inward. and. following the line V shaped neck. runs 'a sharp points to the shoulders inner edge. and merges with the collar. The height of the collar, the harpness of the plastron's points, and its con tinuation below the waist in yard deep apron effect, evidence the ten dency to retain slender lines, while breaking the silhouette at various places. 4s4

WASH FEET OF
 2,OOO CONVERTS
Strange Rite Takes Place in Creek in the Kentucky Mountains and
 Required Hours.

Lexington, Ky, Aug. S.-Four thousand feet belonging to the two thousand new converts of the Baptist church were bathed in Bell county ky, the other day by ministers who conducted the recent revival at which all these people joined the church The foot washing took place ia a small creek which runs near the church and thousands of persons from all over the mountain country attended.
 The converts took their places along the bank of the creek, while the elders as they passed down the line knelt and gently dashed the water over the feet which hung over the bank.
 Four hours were occupied in carry ing out this strange rite, which for many years has been peculiar to cer- tain sects of the Baptist church in Kentucky.

In times of peace six hundred. on an
average, are dealt with weekly at the

London. Nov. 17.-The overwhelm-
ing advance OF the Russian troops has
reached Cracow and that city is burn
ing after a furious bombardment by
the Muscovite artillery.
The coming OF winter has partly par
alyzed the movements OF the troops
both in the east and west theaters OF
the war The Russians on the border
OF East Prussia are reported to be
marching through snow, clad In sheep
skin Jackets similar to those which
tho Japanese first wore in Manchuria.
Billiards have swept the trenches
in Belgium and northern France and
brought great suffering to the wound
ed as we'll as to the men in the fields.
A large area OF West Flanders around
Dixmude has been flooded by the
heavy rains and IN noman's land for
fighting.
1t is generally believed here that
new inundations started by the Bel
gians put many OF the German guns
ou. OF action and also prevented the
movements OF troops.
1t Is almost impossible to gain an
accurate insight into the prodigfous
action that is stretching over the 300
mile front and ut the ends OF which
the fighting has been extremely Sc
we're during the last three weeks. The
continuous night marches and attacks
made by the Germans, which have
besn met by counter attacks from the
allies near Dixmude and Ypres. how
ever. are said to have resulted In q
considerable thrusting back Of the
Germans
A coal basin in northern France
which is partly occupied by the Ger
mans has been the scene Of heavy
fighting. The long lines OF small
houses belonging to the miners form
a shelter for the infantry. which Is
frequently engaged in hand-to-hand
conbats.
The combats Of cold steel have seen
the British infantry engaged against
the Prussian guards and descriptions
OF the fighting from the front paint
the encounters as terrible. The Prus-
slams fought four deep-the front rank
lying down. the second rank kneeling
and the third rank standing erect.
The British fire caused an awful
slaughter, and finally when the Brit
ish charged with the bayonet before
the Germans could bring their machine
guns into action hundreds OF men fell.
rhe Kaiser's troops have been
driven back over the User river and
water released by the breaking Of
dikes by the allies has flooded the

Washington.-Defin reports here
ore that General Villa has agreed to
do the same.
Enrique c. Lorente, Villas repre-
sentative, says Villa plans to visit the
United States. Another report is that
Villa and CarranZa plan to retire to
Cuba and leave the government in the
hands OF Gutierrez and the convention.
Complete settlement Of all differ
ences between the Mexican factions
was indicated by dispatch Monday
from American agents at Aguas Cali
entes saying Carranza has notified
Gutierrez he will resign in his favor
at once.
Secretary Bryan announced he had
received telegram from American
Consular Agent Canova. who has been
with the Aguas Calientes convention
saying everything between the rival
Mexican factions had been satisfac-
torily arranged"
Eulalio Gutierrez formally notified
the United States OF his assumption OF
power as provisional president Of
Mexico and guaranteed protection for
Americans and all other foreigners.
Two communications from Gutierrez
were laid before President Wilson.
The formal notification OF his assump-
would set up his government In Mex
leo City and seek to bring about peace.
The other, guaranteeing protection for
foreigners. made no request for rec
ognition by the United States. His
message said:
After several conferences between
the various chiefs it was agreed to
designate the city OF Aguas Calientes
as the meeting place. and on October
Aguas Calientes met with representa-
tives of all the revolutionist element.
Subsequently the assembly declared
itself to be the sovereign power OF
the republic, as being the representa-
tive Of the people In arms that had
fought to reconstitute the nationality.
'ln virtue thereof, the convention
proceeded to elect the provisional
president of the republic. and / was
designated by a majority OF the votes
TO hold the office. In SO proceeding.
the convention has given expression to
the purposes OF the revolution, and
endeavored to demonstrate that no
government can exist In Mexico un-
less 1t emanates from the will of the
people. The time Of dictatorship born
of violence and personal ambition has
passed forever.
In announcing to your excellency's
government the establishment OF a
new regime in Mexico. rely on the
strong sympathies which the honor
able president of your republic has
always shown to the Mexican people
and their institutions. and l. find
qualification In hoping that the good
relations that have united US with the
powerful and civilized American ma
ton will subsist in the future and that
the forces Of your government will
soon be withdrawn from our port OF
Vera Cruz. Then viii our relations
be again completely cordial and close
