dead kfnSmen provide temporary abiding
places for still others. few have their
own homesteads. Seven out of ten live
in wickiups.
Their Lands Are Poor.
Their present land possessions number
approximately 439 homesteads of from
forty to eighty acres, taken under the
homestead act of March B. 1915. Many
of these homesteads are not valuable
enough to justify payment of taxes. The
soil is poor and sandy and unproductive
even when farmed by the more skilled
white agriculturist. The Indians use
these homeSteads only as a place to live
for part of the year Many original
homesteaders have died and their land
has not been legally claimed by the heirs.
In view of their homeless and landless
condition the Secretary of the Treasury
proposed. in administering the trust fund,
to determine the maximum assets of each
individual of the tribe and to help those
who are incompetent to buy lands and
homes and other needful things To do
this it would be necessary to hold hear
ings for the appraisement of homestead
holdings in the. endeavor to dispose of
them to the best advantage.
This would mean an expenditure TO.
clerk hire and other outlay. The Secre-
tary of the Treasury figured that $l,60
would be required as salary for one field
clerk. $3.50 for a special examiner. a
Stenographer, an Interpreter and incl
dentals. and $3.50 for another field clerk
and interpreter and their expenses

Outlining his plan, he divided the In
dams entitled to the benefits of the
fund into four classes: Competents, who
would each receive a full share In cash
without supervision: orphan minors,
whose shares would be deposited in bank
and distributed from time to time for
their benefit; incompetents, from old age
or physical or mental infirmities, whose
shares also would be deposited in bank
and disbursed for their benefit, and those
incompetents whose shares would be de-
posted and expended under supervision

BRITISH OFFICER PRAISES
 UNFAL TERINGs BRAVERY OF
 GERMANS IN FACE OF ODDS

London, Nov. .6.-Tzhe Press Bur can today issued The following account of events at the battle front as witnessed and written by Col. E. D. swinton. of the Intelligence Departnnent of the General Staff. The recital is dated November l and says:
 Friday Oct A30.-I have witnessed a renewal of the efforts against our right which were without success to the. enemy In the center the bonn bardment was heavy. Indeed, so many telephone wires frequently were cut The attack in the direction of Ypres generally was renewed. Southeast of that town 1t was pressed in great force and in places our line was again forced back a short distance.
 ssBut on our left the oncorning Ger mans were stopped by our entangle- ments under a close rifle fire and after two efforts to advance they gave way.
 ttOn Saturday. Oct. S1, a most de- termined attack was made on our left and our left center, the pressure being especially severe against the latter portioIf9of our position. Part of our line was driven back temporarily by the sheer weight of metal and num- bers, but it was almost all recovered again before night. Against our right they verenot nearly so active as they were farther. north So far, with the assistance of the French, who have been cooperating most effectually, we have succeeded in maintaining our line and in retaining possession of Ypres, upon the capture of which by the end of October, the Germans had set their hearts The fighting for the last five days has been of the most desperate character It has been en1inently a soldiers battle and without exaggera- ton or any undue seIf-congratulation it can be said that our men have be- haved splendfdly in the face of heavy odds and against the repeated on ssiaugflts of great masses which were continually replaced by fresh men and backed up by the almost continuous fire of immense guns They have, by their logged resistance, well upheld the reputation of our army.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1914-11-06


 FIeavy as have been our losses, we have taken a far heavier toll from the enemy and we have prevented them gaining the object upon which all their energies have been concentrated. And not only. have our troops ma1n- tained their traditions, but our FEench allies have been fighting with all the dash for which they are famous Judg- ing from all accounts, they have made at Bixmude and along the Yser a name for themselves which will never die.
 The. Belgian army. likewise, has re- sisted the furious on5Iaughts of the enemy with the utmost gallantIy.
 The German troops also have won respect for the way in which they have advanced. Whether 1t is due to patriotism or to the fear induced by iron discipline, -the fact remains that they steadily press forward to what in many cases must obviously have been certain death.a

 The fuller skirt Is, the shorter it is apt to be.
 There is no Iessening of the fond ness for sashes
 The new square neshed yelling is very much liked
 Small women and young girls favor short coats. trimming is used
 great deal of gold ribbon is used on millinery.
 For the evening gown, f1ounces are most fashionable.
 Silver sequins are used upon white net in evening gowns.
 Prevailing styles among evening wraps are the cape effects
 The afternoon coat is usually made Of a rich pile fabric
 One of the new com bination is navy blue and dark purple
 A great many broadcloth suits are trimmed with caraeui cloth
 A bright velvet rose appears on the 1apeIs of some velvet suits
 The bIouses of coIored lace to match the suit are still in favor
 Some of the new nauffs have pre- ciseIy the contour of a pumpkin
 Skunk fur trims even the al1-black gowns and with charming effect
 Silk and wool crepes are excellent for the new types of pleated gowns
 kimono waists are to be Worn but fitted more closely under the arms New is the Highland hat It is decidedly Scotch in line and trimming. Large hats should be round and should flare slightly at the left side. tTs gowns are often edged with skunk fur. Wider and wider grow the skirts and longer and longer grow the coats.
 In some of the new lace Aouncings the mesh is so dne you can hardly see
 Some of the prettisst gowns have underslirts of accordion -pleated chif-
 Moire silk nowadays not only has watersd surface, but is printed be- sides.
 n cloth dresses the sleeves are almost invariably made of chinon or satin.

 i Very, very wide borders of fur ap- pear on the most splendid of the new velvet coats. The very small round muffs are lmade only of the very finest furs such as Russian sable. 1 The attempts at the long bodice have been much more successful than anybody would have expected. Fashionable and economical is the combination of fur and velvet. These smart sets can be made at home.
 The up-to-date woman is now wear ing a Jumper of velvet over a blouse of fine linen or mousseline de soie.
 A new development of the tunic is tiny hounces set on close together from waist to near the foot of the skirt.
 One Of the most favored hats this fall is the black velcet sailor of me dfsfm size with band of h1ted gros- grain ribbon.
 For the simple frocExs garbardine in dark blue combined with black satin. moire of taffetta is the most fashion able maternal.
