M|MERS.-KEEP away
FROM SOUTHLAND
LABOR MARKET FLOODED AND
MORE IDLE MEN ARE
COMING AZ. psAi .s

Every train brings in men seeking
work. This is an unfortunate state
of affairs in view Of the fact that
while occasionally men are being EN-.
ployed, it is impossible yet to place
at work all those who have been idle
through the greater portion of the
winter. In the course of few weeks
all those who have waited for jobs
could have been put to work, but for
every vacancy there are seven ap-
plicants, due to the arrival of peopls
seeking work.
Similar conditions prevail at Gold.
field, Round Mountain, Manhattan
and other southern camps. These
districts are making good and are
increasing their working forces as
rapidly as possible, but there are al
ready more than enough men on the
ground for all the positions that will
be made during the next several
months and only hardship will be
entailed by more men coming in.
When the time is ripe for an influx
of miners and other laborers the
Bonanza will make announcement.
At present, however, their coming
in is extremely ill.advised and this
paper requests other Nevada publica.
tions to repeat this warning. There
are at present over 400 idle men in
Tonopah looking for work. So men
keep away.

GOLD COIN LIES N
INTERNATIONAL RUIN
MAckEY AND FAIR TOSSED
pouRLooNs INTO REcEPTA.
GLE OF CORNER STONE

rich treasure SENS to be in store
for some lucky person. Old timers
who resided in Virginia City when the
International hotel was built remem-
Der wildly the time the cornerstone
was laid for that famous structure.
Mackay and Fair were there, and
just before the stone was covered
each took handful of gold coin and
placed 1t in the rock. Other well-to-
do people placed their share there
and large sized sum was the re-
suit. Not coin alone, but other valu-
able articles were placed in the stone
until 1t became worth small for
tune. Articles of historic interest
which would now be almost priceless
to the owner were put in to fill up
the hole In one of the most valuable
pieces Of rock in the west, says the
Chronicle.
The old timers who tell of the lay
ing of that cornerstone, declare that
1t has never been touched unless done
so maliciously, and as it would be n
hard proposition to empty that rock
of its contents, it seems likely that
it may still hold the valuables.
1t is customary to lay corner
stone at the northeast corner of a
building, and the men who told this
story believe this was followed when
the International hotel cornerstone
was laid.

from Robert Mayes, Ed Harmer, AL
Hague, Mr.. Brown and others who
were attracted from the hotel office
by the outcries.
The defendant was duly bound over
by Justice Dunseath and indicted by
the grand jury. His case was post
poned from time to time until finally
1t came up before Judge Averill this
morning. The original charge was
assault with intent to commit MUIR
der, but the counsel for the defense
stated to the court that his client
would plead guilty to assault with a
deadly weapon, provided the charge
was reduced. This was done and the
plea of not guilty was changed to
guilty this morning at 10 O'Clock.
Judge 8 Averill will pronounce SEN
tence on April s. The crime carries
with it imprisonment from one tc
two years and a heavy fine, at the

WOOL GROWING IN
CANADA A SUCCESS
This By-Product Of the Farm viii
Make Many Western Canada
Farmers Rich.

Alberta wool growers are looking for
rs cent wool this year. That is the
assertion made by prominent sheep
man of the Grassy Lake district. 1T
is quite within the pale OF possibility
that we will receive that figure from
our wool this summer" said he, and
l would not be surprised to see some
get more than that.
The war has caused great demand
to be made on the wooden mills, and
they have got to have the raw mate
rial"
The present season has been most
propitious for the growing of wool, and
the growers expect to reap big har-
vest of splendid quality. The winter
has been very even, and the sheep are
doing we'll on the ranges.
No special breed Of sheep is kept
on Western Canada farms, and all
seem to do well. The advice Of those
interested in the welfare of the farm.
ers of Western Canada, advise all
who can at all do so to enter upon the
raising Of sheep. They have proved
most profitable to those who go into
that industry on a scale commensu.
rate with their means, and their farm
area.
The climate is perfectly adapted to
the raising of sheep, they are easily
kept, and as pointed out, there is good
money to be made out of them.-Ad

the back and front and drops to con-
siderable additional length at each
side. The lower part of the skirt must
be cut to conform to the shape of the
yoke, fancy black silk braid is laid
over the joining and then the seams
in the yoke are machinc-stitched to
place.
The bottom of the overdress is
shortened at the front but reaches a
little below the edge of the plated
skirt at the back. 1t is finished with
a binding of silk braid.
The short, almost straight-hanging
jacket has tabs bound with braid form
ing a quaint-looking basqne. Seams
and edges are piped with the silk.
The sleeves are provided with turn
back cuffs of the black taffeta over
laid with broad strip of the striped
taffeta. The neck opens in long
V at the front, with wide turnover
collar at the back, which is sloped
into narrow revers at each side. The
small ball buttons that fasten the
jacket are made by covering molds
with the taffeta.
It seems as II no other hat could
look quite so we'll with this unpreten
tious but unusual gown as the fla

smart brushlike cockade of white ant

kid with tips of black and black finish

When a gown outlives the ordeal of
a fashion parade-where it must vie
with many other gowns in beauti-
full galaxy-one may be sure it pos
sesses one or more novel features that
lend it distinction. These fashion pa
rades, or shows, have become an I'M
portant institution. At them the Sc
lections of new styles of those whose
business 1t is to select are put to the
test of public scrutiny, and the fate
of many a style is settled
The gown of black taffeta, made up
with black and white stripe in the
same silk, which is shown in the pic
ture given here. was duly paraded by
great New York house that launches
its products and imports at a semi
annual affair of this kind. This par
ticular costume was among those sue
cessful ones to be placed before the
camera and thus destined to inspire
admiration in a much broader field
than that in which its first triumph
was made.
The double skirt and braid trim
ming are well managed in its make
up. The underskirt is laid in plaits
in which the white stripe lies over the
black. The rlaits at each side are
turned toward the front and thus
leave narrow panel of black at the
middle of the front. The plating Ii
set on to a plain under-petticoat and
extends to the knees.

gathered to yoke which is short at

Whatever vagaries the midsummer
may bring in the way of fads, let us
hope that pretty floating wells will be
numbered among them. Short wells
of light net or of supple chiffon, that
answer the lightest breeze that blows
or play with the stiffest wind, are too
becoming and too pretty in them
selves to be left out of our reckoning.
Just now the face veil OF very fine,
plain net, in an open mesh, worn with
turbans or sailors, serves to keep the
hair neat-looking and sometimes to
improve the appearance of the COM
plexion. Unless the skin is very clear
and somewhat rosy these face wells
should be chosen in color or in the
very finest and most inconspicuous
threads and meshes in black.
Certain shades of gray and grayish
blues and those colors classed as
mode" and fawn color are found to
be most becoming in mesh face wells.
In the finest weaves they are hardly
discernible, but are found to brighten
the complexion more than black wells.
The godet veil, which was intro
duced with the beginning of the spring
season, promises well as a veil for
midsummer. 1t is more voluminous
than wells of plain or figured net or
even those of lace, which appeared
last summer, but did not come into
general use.
Two OF the bordered wells, bound
with bias fold of satin, are pictured
here, showing a black net having the
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1915-05-20

shamrock as a motif for the woven
in figures. These wells are cut in
several different ways. Among others,
large square OF the figured net has
circular opening, large enough to
slip over the hat crown. This is
bound and an elastic cord inserted in
the binding, serving to hold the veil
about the crown. The outer edge is
bound with q narrow, bias strip Of
white satin and hangs in four points
about the shoulders.
But the majority of godet wells are
merely straight lengths of figured net
or lace, hemmed along the straight
edge and gathered on an elastic cord.
The other edges are bound with bias
fold of satin, like the binding on the
wells shown In the illustration.
Chiffon wells for outing or motor
wear have not been changed from
those worn heretofore. Most of them
are about two yards long and three
quarters wide. with hem-stitched hens
an inch and a half or two inches wide.
But the wide chiffon, cut in length
sufficient to make a square, and hem
stitched all around, are very practical

THE TORNADO SEASON
IS At HAND

THE IOWA MUTUAL TORNADO
INSURANCE ASSOCIATION has been
In operation over thirty-one years, and
is the largest Cooperative Tornado In
surance Association in the world to-
day. The Company now has $196,OO0,-
600 of risks in force in Iowa, with APP
proximately 100000 cash in the banks,
for future losses.
Since organization the Association
has paid over $1,0O0OO0 of losses and
within the past two years has paid
something like $4,000 of losses, and
during the whole 81 years has as
sessed its members only FOURTEEN
MILLS, or less than one-half OF one
mill per year, which, considering the
protection furnished, is world-record-
breaking-rate. There is no better or
cheaper insurance to be had anywhere
in any Company or Association.
Iowa has been visited by tornado
or more or less destructive wind storms
so far this year, as follows: On April
23rd tornado visited Poweshiek, Ma
haska, and Keokuk Counties. On May
End tornado passed over Iowa be-
ginning north of Massena, Cass Coun-
ty, and moved in a. perfectly straight
line to near Fairbanks, Buchanan
County, doing thousands of dollars Of
damage in Cass County. 1t then
seemed to jump to Dallas County,
striking Woodward, thence to Boone
County, where it destroyed a large
barn worth $500 belonging to Delbert
Kenison. near Madrid, and other prop.
erty. From there it jumped to Sec.
"a, Milford Twp, Story County, and
destroyed a large barn, then struck
again in Sec. Is, Melrose Twp.
Grundy County, and again in the s. E.
corner of Bremen County. THE IOWA
MUTUAL TORNADO INSURANCE
ASSOCIATION had about $4,000 Of
losses along the line of this storm.
There was also a severe storm in
Woodbury. County, on the same date.
The next day, May 3rd, there was a
tornado in Henry, Louisa, and Des
Moines Counties, where many farm
buildings were destroyed. Some of
the largest claims paid in these storms
were VIM. Garside, Massena, $4,000;
L. B. Pierce, Winfield, $1,000; Delbert
Kenison, Madrid, $1,000; Iowa Soap
Co., Burlington. $255.00. The Associa-
ton sustained about $4,000 of losses
in these storms, all of which have
been paid, or adjustment provided for
in manner entirely satisfactory to
the persons sustaining loss.
This Association cooperates with the
Farmers Mutual of Iowa.

STRONG MAN OF GREECE

Greece's advance toward a real
ization of her national aspirations re-
ceived a momentary check in the re-
tirement of the powerful Premier
Venizelos, whose program Of entering
the war on the side OF the allies was
frowned upon by that other hero Of
present-day Greece, King Constan-
tine. Few believe, however. that the
differences between the two men who
are to the new Greece what King Vic
tor Emmanuel ii and Cavour were to
Italy. will be of very long standing.
The world recognizes in Venizelos
the strong man of Greece who in In
credibly few years has accomplished
so much in rehabilitating the prestige
of his country.
BY means of his new constitution,
adopted after the revolution at Athens
in 1910, Venizeloswas able to effect the
far-reaching reforms in putting down
political corruption, and creating terri
torially a new Greece. He brought
Crete, Macedonia, Epiros, and the
