frocks for more dressy occasions are
quaint and becoming to degree;
many of them look as If they might
have been worn by grande danes OF
the period just following the French
Revolution, with perhaps a little add
ed dignity.
The taffetas, failles, and velvets Ia
vored for these gowns lend them
selves particularly well to the dra-
peries now in vogue, panniers, poufs,
and the loose panels of Watteau's
figures.

calls us all to the dignity of formal
dinners, dances, teas and like occa-

Dirt Slides into Cut
Faster Than Removed
SURVEY at Gailiard on Panama Canal
Shows 100000 Cubic Yards
Moving

Panama, Oct. 10.-A careful sur
vey of the slide area in the Gaillard
cut reveals the fact that there are
probably 100000 cubic yards Of
earth in motion, which must be tax
en- out by dredging operations before
a permanent channel through the cut
is possible.
This is tne conclusion reached by
the canal engineers, who concede
there is little hope of opening the
waterway, even for the temporary
use of shipping, much before the
first of the year.
The present rate of wet eXcava-
ton is 100000 yards per month
and at this rate it would require not
less tnan ten months to remove the
mass which is now sliding into the
canal considerably faster than the
dredges can take it out. It is said
that often the canal bottom bulges
mp to a height OF fifteen feet above
the surface of the water, due to the
tremendous weight of the hillsides.
The area of motion is roughly cal
culated to be in the neighborhood OF
175 acres, which constitutes the great
est slide area in the history OF the
canal. 1t extends 5000 feet along
both banks OF the waterway vita

Overskirts Growing In Popularity
Many of the imported gowns show
the apron overskirt, usually made OF
chiffon, embroidered, or heavily bead
ed, combined with straight full skirts
paneled with velvet, on cloth and SILK
frocks. Some Of these models show
a profusion of trimming; others are
simplicity and dignity itself, relying
entirely on the cut and color COM
bination for effect.
Chiffon as Trimming
Many bolero effects are noticed on
winter frocks and costume Dlouses,
as corsage trimmings. Chiffon, heav'
lily soutached, and chiffon veilings
play important parts in the scheme
of trimmings. Many of the new
blouses are made of lace or net, band
ed by several rows of MORE ribbon,
at the line of the bust, yelled by the
chiffon.
Dinner, Dance and Ball Gowns
Dinner and ball frocks are extreme
" dainty and quaint this winter.
The panier, with its graceful draper
les over the hips, is often accompan-
led by a loose hanging panel and
hung over contrasting underskirts OF
figured or lowered taffeta, or one OF
the charming embroidered brocades
OF the moment, in silver or gold.
Now and then one sees ball or
dinner gown of black satin, heavily
trimmed with sparkling Jet; there
are many yelled models too; taffetas,
failles, and satins, yelled with bead
ed nets or chiffons. Gray Is nearly
as popular shade for this type of
frock as for daytime wear; often 1t
is combined with black lace over
white most effectively. Much vel
vet is used, combined VITA satin, taft
feta, or faille, or as landings for the
cloth frocks which are quite popu-
lar.
The Day Of the Dance Not Passed
Dancing Is still much in favor.
Some charmingly capricious frocks
have been designed this winter es-
pecially for the maid or matron who
dances. Many of these are delight
ly youthful and frivolous; one espe-
cially dainty creation has skirt
made entirely of ribbon with net
bodice, yelling a band of the ribbon
at the bustlne. Net, and the dain-
tily colored bordered chiffons, are
much used for these gowns; also the
quantity patterned taffetas and bro
cades, so reminiscent of days gone
by. The nets and chiffons are usal.

adjudging each to be the owner of
the property now in hts or her own
name.
The suit was filed August "a, 1904.
The Reads were then living in Una
tilla and had been married since
1891. The wife complained that her
husband had frequently assaulted
her. had threatened to kill her with
a butcher knife and revolver and
had Knocked her down once with a
piece of rubber hose. The case was
allowed to drag for six years or un-
til Judge Phelps took the bench and
was then dismissed. The following
year. however II was reinstated and
on July II, 1911, the defendant. who
was a locomotive engineer, filed his
answer In which he accused his wife
OF infidelity and improper conduct
with other men as well as OF threats
against his life.

Some estimate OF the probable BEN

freight rate reductions made follow
ing the opening of the Cascade Locks
canal. The grain rate from The Dalles
10 Portland was cut 4J per cent in
stead Of 40 per cent as previously
stated.
An average reduction Of 50 per
cent was made in the carload rates
on salt, sugar canned goods and
nails. A further reduction in rates
was made for points east of The
Dalles after the portage railroad was
put into operation. A substantial
reduction will undoubtedly be made
on upper Columbia river points as
soon as the Cello canal is finished.
Naturally the reductions will be made
only for points affected by river
competition and for Pendleton and
other points in the county. Including
the wheat belt to secure the benefits
OF the river It will be necessary to
have a road TO the river.

TOLD TRAMP TO CLEAN UP
YARD AND The TRAMP DID
But 1T WAS THE WRONG YARD,
ACCORDING To CHIEF
KEARNEY.

ApropoS of the annual cleanup oil

q story upon himself which indicates
that he is practicing what he
breaches 20 an extent somewhat be-
yond his intentions. A few mornings
ago a hobo appeared at his home
en- North Bush street and asked for
a meal. Not given to encouraging
mendicants, the chief told him the
meal would be forthcoming If 1t was
earned. and told the man to rake his
ward first and he would set break.
fast afterwards.
Having cleaned up his yard only
a few days before, there were only
few chips scattered about over the
lawn from the childrens play and
these were what the chief indicated.
He gave him the rake and came
down to work. What was his sur
Prise when he returned home at
noon to find half a drayload of trash
and debris piled up in front OF his
house. The man had cleaned up the
vacant lots back of the Kearney
home, gathering up an old stove.

that had accumulated. and the chief
had to hire a wagon to haul ii away
The seret of the unusual energy
with which the hobo had prosecut-
ed his task probably lies in the fact

1ST DRAFT Of j. 5.
PROTEST IN HANDS
Of THE PRESIDENT
Correspondence Between the United
States and France on Blockade
Subject is Wholly Ignored.
URITAINS ACT MAIN EVENT
Attitude OF England Only Matter 10
BE Considered as British order Is
Taken As Stating Correctly the At
titudc OF the Allles-No Special
session OF Congress.

WASHINGTON. Marchc l9.-The
first draft OF the American protest
against the Anglo-French blockade
OF the German coast reached Presi-
dent Wilson today
The draft points out that the ac-
tion OF the allied nations involves Il
matter OF fact rather than a matter
OF law. The correspondence between
the United states and France on the
subject is completely ignored. II is
declared that no matter what assur-
ances are conveyed 10 the United
States with regard TO a Limitation or
the war zone. America must regard
the British order as correctly stating
the attitude OF the allies. This at
tltude declares the intention OF Brit
ain To interfere with all commerce 10
and from Germany.
II " unlikely that the American
protest will be forwarded TO London
for several days. Government Off
oials agree that there is no apparent
need OF haste in the matter.
Il was officially denied today that
the president intends TO call a special
session Of congress to consider the
passage OF a measure empowering
the executive to place an embargo
on expectations from the United
States OF certain goods. The presi-
dent believes that such an embargo
would constitute violation OF neu-
trality and he does not favor II.
The fundamental proposition OF the
protest will be that the demand OF
the allies that the United States
agree that no American goods shall
reach Germany in shipments through
neutral countries is absurd and i'm
possible.
