the shipment OF dynamite was re-
fused by the Japanese at the last
moment.
Suspect Clever Plot
Lillico then arranged for the
shipment on the Hazel Dollar, which
was to leave tomorrow.
Just how the explosive was set
off is a source OF speculation.
The most probable explanation Is
that a time clock attachment had
been planted in the dynamite, with
the intent of blowing up the Japa-
nese ship in midocean.
From Tacoma II is reported that
mysterious man bought $50 feet
OF fuse from a water front firm.
and that this may have been used
10 set off the dynamite.
The stranger gave a fictitious ad-
dress and said he was doing some
blasting on his ranch

The powder was In the care OF J.
T. Steeb & Co. OF Tacoma, and was
consigned to the Baldwin Trading
Co. of Vladivostok. II consisted of

ART IN CLAY.

In the quality of clay is something
which tempts one to handle it and to
try to make of il forms of beauty.
Perhaps this is because it can be
nodded by the hands with few tools
or none. Perhaps il is because it can
be changed IL form so quickly that
interest is not lost before a result is
obtained. stone cutting takes Ions.
and an error in il once made cannot
easily be corrected. A vision OF beau
" may be lost before the wood cary
ing has taken form and a false stroke
means a great deal. But an error in
clay may be erased by one motion OF
the thumb. If too much clay is re-
moved. it may be replaced; figure
faulty executed may be broken and
built again; and a beautiful form, the
dream of the artist may stand before
him in clay before the vision has fad
ed from his thought. No wonder,
then. that in many different parts of
the world clay workers have been
among the first artists. says Barber in
his Pottery and Porcelain in the
United States

French Dressnakers

Quiet Social Functions Are

for Dainty Froeks.

A great many French society woun-
en- who for the last eight or nine
mcnths have been entirely absorbed
in Red Cross work or in private phil
anthropic schemes aDc now buying
clothes: and some of the big dress
makers are as busy as they can be.
Afternoon dresses and dinner dresses
are again INDUCED in. Very few are
10 be seen by the general public, be
cause there are no open social gaities
But there is a certain amount of in
innate entertaining going on. ana 1t
is at small luncheon and dinner par
ties that the F'renchwoman is wear
ing and Will wear her new frocks
writes a Paris correspondent of the
Times (LondOn).
1t looks as If mUslins and linens
would be worn more than silks or
satins for afternoon frocks, and some
of the simple, dainty things are
charming The skirts are all short,
the sleeves are generally long, the
waist is indicated, not emphasized.
and there is no superfluous trimming
anywhere. Nothing is smarter for
blouses and lingerie frOcks than fine
the other way round the pale blue
verging on gray in muslins and ere
pons looks very well indeed.
Striped lingerie chemisetteS are also
being made by the good houses, but
they run the risk OF getting common
already. and 10 be uncommon nova
days is very costly. 1t means the
simplest and most exquisite of every
thing, from dresses and hats to shoes
and gloves.
Tight skirts have practically van
ished from the wardrobes of the bour-
geoise as they have from those of the
society woman. A few midinettes
still cling 10 them, but every day the
vivandiere silhouette grows more gen
eral among the little girls who carry
round very big dress boxes and very
ornamental hat boxes. Even the
crinoline may be seen in the streets,
and it has been made by more than
one big dressmaker for evening
gowns. The grace of il in moderation
must be admitted, and as long as the
skirt is short il is quite practical.
one OF its advantages is that it makes
the feet look small, and it certainly
encourages free and graceful walk.

SATURDAYS ELECTION
PRESENTS SURPRISES

The election was full Of milo
surprises. Probably the mos
interesting Of these was that Gov
Patterson defeated Senator Lea in
Nashville and Davidson county
the senator's home and the home
of his newspaper. Coy. Patter.
son outran the senator l 200 votes
in Davidson.
This was the only large county
that Gov. Patterson carried.
Mr.. Mcclellan carried Mem
phis and Shelby county over Gov.
Patterson By 1850 votes; carried
Hamilton over Senator Lea by
800 votes, and carried Knox over
the senator by 300 votes.
Senator Lea got only 1874 votes
in the city Of Memphis and
Shelby county.
Senator Lea lost all Of the
grand divisions, though he ran
Mr., Mcclellan a close race in
East Tennessee. The approximate
vote in East Tennessee was, in
twenty out Of twentv-one coun-
ties: Mcclellan 8,414, Lea ,556.
Gov, Patterson got approximately
1882 votes in East Tennessee.
Mr.. Mcclellan carried West
Tennessee by nice plurality,
securing good pluralities in many
Of the big West Tennessee coun-
ties. He carried Madison, Upton,
Fayette, Gibson, Henry, Dyer
and Lauderdale. Mr.. Mcclellan
carried every county in the Tenth
congressional district.
Senator Lea carried only two
counties in West Tennessee, Lake
and Henderson. Former Con-
gresham Rice Pierce of the
Ninth district did some heavy
work for the senator in Obion and
Lake.
Gov. Patterson carried Obion
BY a close vote, and for the first
lime he carried Weakley. But the
,hree candidates were within 100
votes Of each other in Weakley
,ut Of a total Of 800 votes.
Madison was another close
in which the three we're
within 1875 votes Of each other in
t otaI Of $500 votes, or there
bouts.
Friends and managers of Gov.
Patterson stoutly maintained dur
ng the campaign that the ex-
GOVERNOR would come strong in
diddle Tennessee. He did make
