PHILADELPHIA.

PHILADELPHIA May 27-The
rather poor form displayed by Don
Lippincott. the crack University Of
Pennsylvania sprinter, in the short
dashos this spring is causing Penn's
followers a little worry. With the
intercollegiate games at hand Lippin-
colt has yet TO show a single 100 yard
or 22O yard performance worthy of
his real speed The 1912 Olympic
sensation has been beaten time and
again by men that he ought TO con-
code yards to- and this is especially
true In the furlong event. In which
Don. when right is very close to un-
beatablo. Now there Is theory 20
explain Lippincotts Indifferent run
ming in the dashes that comes pretty
near hitting the nail on the head,
and that is that the quarter mile work
that he did early in the spring in
preparation for the Penn relays has
taken the edge off his speed tempor-
arily. There is also the fact that
Iippincott. remembering the pulled
muscle that put him out of the inter-
collegiate games last year, has prob
ably not done enough work at his
mark, fearing repetition of the
pull" that laid him low a year ago.
The fact that Lippincott displayed
sensational form in the quarter mile
prior to the Penn relays and in the
race in which the Quaker four smash
ed the record for the one mile relay
proves conclusiyely that II is no lack
of condition that has slowed Don in
the short sprints, but too much work
and conditioning az a distance which
/ is far above those at which he oX-
/ poets to run his intercollegiate races

Cray OVERALLS Will
Be SEASONS STYLES

CHICAGO. May 26.-Gray overalls
Thl be the style this year instead of
the familiar blue ones, as a result
of the war in Europe. according to
Galbraith Miller president of the Ma
tional Garment Makers Association,
which began its thirteenth annual
convention at the Hotel Lasalle today
The indigo dye has been imported
from Europ Elm the past, but now
American manufacturers are obliged
TO make their own dye, Mr.. Miller
said. He declares that the effect Of
the war has been to make American
garment makers prosperous.
The war has resulted in shipments
of enormous quantities of garments
to Europe, the largest single order
being for 100000 sheepskin-lined
coats at a cost of more than $S.O0O 900
and the order was filled by American
garment manufacturers inside of 60
days." Mr.. Miller said.

WAR makes Venice
like Deserted CITY
Thousands OF Tourists USu-
ally There Absent;
People in Want
WORKING CLASSES
ARE IN DISTRESS

VENICE. May 26.-Venice, perhaps
Of all the cities in Italy, is feeling the
war most keenly. At the height Of
the spring season in normal years
there would be from 10000 to 10000
tourists here. But today there are not
a hundred in the whole city. Hotels
with from 200 to 300 rooms are abso-
lutely empty; some, indeed are
closed up.
The Piazza OF st. Mark is deserted
and there are no strangers to feed
the pigeons. The Grand Canal, which
ought to be black with gondolas. has
no other traffic but the two-cent
steamboats,. The gondoliers are liter
ally starving.
Nearly all of them have been COM
PEELED even to pawn the familiar brass
horses which decorate their gOndolas,
though all they can raise on them is
six lira (S120).
The storekeepers are in no better
plight, dependent as they are almost
entirely upon the tourists Most Of
them are unable to pay their rent,
and the landlords, with the help OF
the banks. are carrying them over
until better times.
Venice has no trades and indus
tries except in articles of luxury.
such as laces, leather goods and fine
glassware. All these are entirely at
a standstill.
Distress among the working classes
is widespread. Even in normal times
the poverty in Venice is eXtraordi-
narily great: some authorities indeed
assert that one-fourth of the whole
population are paupers. During the
past month there have been food riots
and thousands of people are close to
starving. The municipality has been
granting relief as far as possible. but
now it is said that the funds available
for the purpose are wellnigh ex-
hausted.

the laundresses' union some years
ago.
He told how the servant in the
house gets UP at 4 in the morning,
does the washing and ironing and
then cleans the house, cooks the
meals and does other chores through
out the day, while all the laundress
has to do is to stand on her feet for
ten hours a day, and she may even
sit down occasionally if she desires,
as there is standing rule that she
may so sit. His employees all crave
the privilege Of continuing to work
10 hours.
Rice stated if there was any legis-
lation is should be to put Cinnamon
competitors out of business.
Rep. Hicks said he had interviewed
one girl who worked in a laundry and
she had said she would take cut in
wages to get shorter hours, and Rice
looked his anazement.
Rice pleaded that the bosses should
not be hurt by legislation while bust
ness is PROSTATE, but in answer to.
question of Agnes Nestor why he had
fought against shorter hours six
years and four years ago he harped
back to the Cinnamon and said the
immigration law was ineffective, as
Cinnamon came in from Canada.
