For men there are no end of lovely

me and these are being shown in very

from $40 to SIS, while the silver buck
les are SIS and Sc, according to quality.
The "Waldemar' watch chains are very

chains cost anywhere from $4.50 to $35

UNDERWOOD FORCAST
 FUTURE OF TAX BILL
Republican Members Will Be Kept From Fighting Meas

WASHINGTON, Sept 22-The early disposition of the war revenue bill to raise s1O5, 100000 was forecast when Majority Leader Underwood an- nounced that the measure would be brought up Thursday under a rule limiting the debate to four hours.
 The republican members of the house attacked the measure along the lines suggested in a minority report protesting "that there was no oeca- sion for a panic and nasty or head long action to heap heavier burdens upon the people," The democrats were charged with extravagance and fail ure of new tariff to meet the fram- CTS expectations The republican sem ators proposed to debate the bill thoroughly in order to make a delay against the democratic fiscal policy

BATTLE GROWS FIEKCER AS DAYS GROW LONGER.

AT BATTLE FRONT VIA PARIS. Sept. 22.-Not a moments respite was given last night to the German forces entrenched along the ninety miles front running along the rivers Aisne and Disc and extending ito the Woeve district. Batteries of the allied forces never entirely ceased firing all night although their activity diminished somewhat after sundown.
 Germans occupying trenches were kept constantly on the alert but un- til two this morning no aggressive move started from the allies lines, facing them. Then the allied batter ies seemed to open fire together and every point along front became very active
 At the western end of the line the allied infantry gathered in the trenches and simultaneously at vari- ous points crept out and advanced cautiously in wide open lines toward the German positions. French and British on several occasions succeed ed in surprising and driving back the occupants of the trenches but only after a most stubborn fight and after heavy losses on both sides.
 In every instance the allied troops retained the ground captured and im- mediately dug themselves in.
 Further east the Germans them selves developed a strong attack and though beaten back with the bayo- net again and again Finally they were driven off to their original posi- tions
 The allied commanders were able to give the troops who have been oc- cupying the advance firing line a well come rest pushing to the front fresh brigaGes of batteries hitherto held in reserve which were only too anxious to come into actual contact Milf | tary experts estimate nearly two million or more men are now in the zone where the battle has been m | progress ten days.

 Will Make Agreement With
 Owners And Work Can Be Started Message To Pres.

DENVER, Sept. 22.-The Colorado fuel and iron company, in a letter to the presiden; made public tonight ex- pressed their unwillingness to re- employ all the strikers not convicted of crime, as was suggested in a three year truce proposal that was pre- pared by Hywel Davies and William R. Farley, mediators. appointed by the secretary of labor in an effort to end the Colorado coal miners strike.
 The corporation also objected to a final adjudication of disputes by the federal grievance commission The letter was signed by J F. Welborn. president of the company who will discuss the situation with the presi- dent at Washington tomorrow.
 At a convention at Trinidad last week, the Colorado union of coal out any amendment and notified the president that they were willing to return to work and would call of the strike as soon as the proposal was accepted by the mine owners.
 Welborn's letter to his company was Gn individual reply Other opera tors in the state will unite in a sep. arate reply President Welborn main tained that the companys first obi .gation was to the present employees, many of whom would be discharged if all the strikers not convicted oi crime would be re-employed.
