MYSTERY OF ATTACKS
ON WOMAN IS SOLVED
HiIlSdale Girl Thought to Have
Stabbed Self Is
NeurotiC.

HILLSDALE, Mich. Sept. 30.-The
mystery of the attacks on Miss Adila
Trumbull of this city seems about To
dissipate into the dimness of the re-
giOn whence il came. Today papers
were filed in probate court asking her
admission TO the psycopathic ward at
Ann ArbOr.
For a week the little town of Hills
dale has been undergoing a reign OF
terror as a result of the stories told
by the girl and the apparent evidence
of a mailman that was prepared to
take bloody tribute from the town S
youth. Girls and children have kept
from the streets as soon as dusk fell
and every shadow that moved along
the streets was declared TO be a wait
ing danger by the more historical.
Since the alleged attack of last Fri
day. Miss Trumbull has been confined
10 her home. The local authorities
have questioned her. but without Sc
curing any results except a tangle of
mystery that included silent-fOoted
visitors to her room at midnight, two
attacks with weapons, letters that
dropped from nowhere in which vague
threats were made and vague horrors
limited at.
Fifteen minutes talk with the
young woman, who is pretty. 9 years
old and a movie fan, brought out the
facts that since childhood she has
been a suffered from various mental
disorders She has been a sleep
walker, subject to cataleptic spells in
which, for periods of from 10 min
utes to half an hour. she was uncOn-
scious OF her actions and lastly. two
years ago, came a fall and since that
time She has been a chronic sufferer
from headaches.

Columbus Man Constructs Electrical

COLUMBUS. Ind, Sept. 30.-R. NJ.
Champion, an employe of a factory
here. says he has invented a device
that will tell a traffic policeman which
way an automobile is going while the
car is a square away. The device is
electrically controlled and burns a
series of lights against a black disk.
When the driver intends turning TO
the right at the next corner he pushes
the proper button and gives the sig
nal not only TO the traffic man, but to
other drivers. A similar disk is fasten-
ed to the rear Of the car and shows
following drivers which way the car is

device can be attached 10 all kinds OF
vehicles and he thinks IL will reduce

(From cabled information to Harper's
Bazaar for November.)
Gone are the clinging draperies, the
skirts split to the knees, the backs ex-
posed to the waistline. The charming
simplicity of la belle Suzanne, which
led vain court from its atmos-
phere of pretense to an appreciation
of the more real beauty of the unaf-
fected, is heralded according TO Emile
de Joncaire, who reveals to readers of
Harper's Bazaar the very latest things
done by Paquin, Callot, Jenny, Premet
and other designers of genius in the
French capital.
In Paris, she says, one finds on all
sides outspoken desire to see the
return to the days that saw beauty
at it's best. Inspiration has been
sought in the loneliness portrayed by
Vatican and Fragonard. The DOM
inant note everywhere is simplicity.
There is great revulsion of feeling
against freakish innovations and mill
tary fashions.
Skirts that give freedom of motion
without too much encumbering full

dainty foot without accentuating a

their fashioning and when tight and

Coats are of every length, and so
full that they billow with every
movement; many of them are cut
longer at the sides than at the front
and back, but one cannot say that
any one style is the best, declares
Emile De Joncaire. The really styl-

The waist line is normal, neither
angular nor uncomfortably small.

genie and described by Balzac as
so graceful that there seemed to be

Fashions are san. Fashions are
womanly and graceful. Beautiful are
the materials used-velvets, brocades
and laces. Stuff originally intended
for upholstery will not appear in the
wardrobe. Those who admire Bakst
must be content with his stage effects
and realize that while a peacocks tail
is beautiful in itself, it would be out of
place hitched to a canary.
