Admirers of the shepherds check
In cloths for tailored suits-and these
are many-were given very great
variety in models this spring to choose
from. Those suits for which small
checks were chosen, cut on simple,
but carefully thought out lines, proved
to be the most successful. A great
many of them were made with short
WASTED box coats. A less number had
short jackets, and some of the smart
est were designs in which semifitting
coats figured. Skirts were nearly al
ways plain, moderately wide and
somewhat fiaring. The advance of the
season proved that the suits of shep-
herds check received a merited ap-
probation. The pretty spring suit be-
comes the crisp midsummer suit by
variation of the shoes and hats worn
with it, and is paying investment
for street wear.
One of them is illustrated here. The
perfectly tailored skirt is plain with
moderate flare and cut instep length.

RUSS ARE ACCUSED

Russians and brought before Aeneral
Rennenkampff-and apparently in
keeping with his Infamous orders to
kill all German foresters-was imme-
diately shot Even the aged women
and children did not escape the MUIR
derous frenzy of the Russian soldier.
THE murder of little child be-
tween two and three years of age was
particularly cruel. Investigations show
how terrible was the end of whole
family which fell victims of the Rus
sian soldiers lust for murder; the ia
Their was nailed to table, the child
to a door and the mothers breasts
were cut off and her body slit open. In
another instance the tongues of the
husband and wife were nailed to the
table and they finally died.
'The cases of attack upon young
girls and women are innumerable.
Information regarding the cruel
treatment of German prisoners Of war
by the Russian troops will be found in
additional appendices. In numerous
prisoners were robbed, spit upon or
otherwise i'll treated without any rea-
son. A Russian officer threatened
some German soldiers with death be-
cause they would not betray their COM
rades, and had one Of them actually
shot. Russian troops placed German
prisoners in narrow excavations before
their gun positions, apparently with
the intention that they should be
killed by shots from German guns.
"Cossacks have slashed off the heads
OF German prisoners as they rode by,
and others were badly injured; some
were manned by having their limbs
cut off. One German prisoner was
bound to a horse gin in a most cruel
manner and allowed to starve to death.
Three hussars were found in barn
hanging with their heads down and
noses and ears cut off, indicating that
they must have died in excruciating
agony.
Russian soldiers have also not hest
tated to murder and barbarously MAIN
wounded German soldiers. They have
| removed bandages from the wounded
that they might bleed to death; others
eyes have been stabbed out; tongues,
ears, fingers and feet have been cut
off and skulls crushed in.
I'm some cases these brutal deeds
have been performed with fiendish
cruelty. Illustrative of this, lightly
wounded soldier was found secured to
the floor of veranda by bayonet
stuck through the mouth, the flesh OF
the lower arm was stripped off from
elbow to wrist, the fingers were slit W
| to the wrist. Another soldier who
had received a skull injury was sc
| bound to a calf in a stable that every
| time the animal moved its mouth the
exposed brain of the soldier was
rubbed.
THE most atrocious thing of all was
the order of the highest Russian mill
tary authority, found on high Rus
sian officer, which directed that all
male inhabitants over ten years Of age
should be driven before the attacking
| troops; this monstrous order, which
has blackened the name of the Russian
commander in chief forever, was ap
parently issued with the intention that
German soldiers in repulsing the Rus
slams would be compelled to fire or
their own people"

Early in the season hats having
transparent brims made their appear
ance. These brims were fiat and
mounted on braid crowns. They were
made of malines, net, chiffon or thin
crepe. Nearly always, embedded be-
tween layers of such airy materials,
flowers, with petals spread fiat, added
touches of lovely color. The effect
is very pretty-and gave the hats
their distinguishing name-that OF
halo" hats-the embedded wreaths
encircling the head like halo.
So good an item of art in millinery
was destined to outlast the early sea-
son and to introduce many transpar-
ent hats for midsummer. The latter
are made, crown and all, of the thin
fabrics, and brims have grown wider.
Flower and feather trimmlngs-but
mostly flowers-are mounted on the
outside or underbrim instead of being
embedded in the material.
A beautiful hat of this character is
shown in the picture. 1t is OF black
malines made over frame of fine
silk wire. The edge wire and one
other are outlined on the underbrim
by filter jet. There is an immense
pompon of malines at the front with
two long Jet ornaments thrust in it.
Nothing could be prettier for midsum'
mer wear than this exquisite piece OF
millinery.
Hemp and leghorn hats, with fac
ings of Grape on the upper or under
brims are among the loveliest offer
ings in dress hats, Light pink crepe
is the favorite color and hats of this
character are among the best de
signed for bridesmaids at June wed
dings. One of them is shown in the
illustration. 1t has a crown of hemp
and its upper brim covered with crepe
stretched smoothly over. it, leaving
the hemp as facing. 1t is trimmed

STOP FOREST F|RES|
United States Forestry Service
Seeks PubIic's Cooperation.
Ten "Don'ts" to Be, Observed in the
Woods to Prevent the Blazes
Which Are Causing Big
Losses in East.

Washington. TO obtain the co
operation of the public in preventing
forest fires, which are doing grea
deal of damage in the East this
spring, the United States forest sery
ice has prepared ten "don'ts" to be
observed in the woods. 1t is hoped
that these rules may have a beneficial
effect during the fire season of the
southern Appalachians, which is no
yet over, and that of the North woods
which is just beginning, and which
from present indications, promises tc
be unusually severe.
The "don'ts" follow:
/. Don't throw your match away I'm
til you are sure 1t is out.
2. Don't drop cigarette or cigar
butts until the glow is extinguished.
3. Don't knock out your pipe ashes
while hot or where they will fall into
dry leaves or other inflammable ma
terial.
a. Don't build camp fire any larger
than is absolutely necessary.
5. Don't build fire against tree
a log, or stump, or anywhere but
on bare soil
6. Don't leave a fire until you are
sure it is out; If necessary, smother
it with earth or water.
z. Don't burn brush or refuse in or
near the woods If there is any chance
that the fire may spread beyond your
control, or that the wind may carry
sparks where they would start new
fire.
s. Don't be any more careless with
fire in the woods than you are with
fire in your own home.
9. Don't be idle when you discover
a fire in the woods; If you can't put
it out yourself, get help. Where a
forest guard, ranger or state fire war
den can be reached, call him up on
the nearest telephone you can find.
10. Don't forget that human thought
lessness and negligence are the causes
Of more than half of the forest fires
in this country, and that the smallest
spark may start conflagration that
will result in loss of life and destruc-
ton of timber and young growth valu-
able not only for lumber but for their
influence in helping to prevent flood,
erosion and drought.
Many thousands of acres of forest
and suburban woodland from Maine
to Florida, and from the Atlantic
coast as far west as Arkansas, have
been burned over already this spring
by fires which started for the most
part from preventable causes. On the
national forest purchase areas alone
40 fires occurred in March, burning
over more than $500 acres, while "A
fires starting on private land near or
within government boundaries dam
aged nearly $500 acres. Fires in
April were even more numerous and
severe, but rains in the latter part OF
the month helped the situation some
what.

Smart Costume.

One of the smartest costumes for
young women, exhibited on a living
model at recent opening, was of very
pale tan worsted and mohair mixture,
made with short, flare skirt, revealing
the new slim black leather pump, guilt
less of buckle or bow, and stockings
of natural silk A little coat, button
ing high to the throat, was sur
mounted by a very tall choker collar
of white organdie with points reaching
up over the cheeks and broad stock
of black satin holding it in place. The
coat had a belt and plated coattail
at the back. This knowing spring cos
tune was completed by a tiny black
satin hat with slashed sailor brim and
a floating veil of black mesh with an
allover vinet pattern.

Atrocities Charged to Cars Sol

Affidavits to Be Used in Peace Nego-
tIations to Prevent Extension OF
Muscovite Territory In Europe
Horrors Detailed.
Nv OSWALD r. SCHUETTE.

Correspondent OF the Chicago News)
Berlin, Germany-The German gov
eminent has issued an official me-
mortal to the civilized world setting
forth a series Of atrocities committed
by Russian troops upon German in
habitants and German prisoners OF
war"
The memorial Is accompanied by doc
umentary evidence in the shape of 81
affidavits setting forth the testimony
on which the charges are based. They
are far toe horrible for publication
All are to be used against Rus
STA whenever peace negotiations are
begun to halt any possibility of an ex'
tension Of the Russian government In
Europe. The memorial already has
called forth indignant denials from
London.
In part the atrocity record is as fol
lows:
According to official investigations
thousands of men, women and chill
dren were dragged away, other thou
sand murdered, about 10000 buildings
were destroyed or burned during the
first and second Russian invasions OF
East Prussia During the second In
vasion alone $4,000 dwellings were
plundered and desolated.
"The inhabitants, including women
and children, were mishandled under
the most fiimsy pretexts or for no rea
son at all, although they did all they
could to satisfy the Russian soldiers
regarding quarters and supplies. This
mistreatment was sometimes carried
out with extreme cruelty; in one case
the male inhabitants Of an entire vii
lage, including the district judge
were f1ogged and at the same time
threatened with death. Fugitives were
fired upon without any motive. But
above all, many peaceful citizens were
murdered without any reason what
ever, some enduring terrible suffering
in the presence of their relatives. In
nocent young men were shot merely
because they we're able to perform
military service.

charge Of transportation of German
convicts, was taken prisoner by the

nounced a few days previous to the
marriage that there was something in
the report that she was engaged to

socially in New York, were opposed
to the match because of their daugh-

which rises little at the back, where
plaits are depended from the belt 1t
is cut in points at the front, is longer

belt terminates at these plaits.
The shoulders are somewhat long

pieces and unusually we'll adjusted.
Ball buttons in three sizes are used
for fastening and trimming.
The suit is worn with low shoes and
