A number of prominent citizens who were in the governors office at the time he is said to have signed and vetoed the bill. will appear as witnesses in the Chan cery Court proceedings. They say they will testify that they saw Governor Hays sign the bill and that the gov ernor accepted their congratulaHon They will also testify, they say, that the personnel of the racing comm1s- sion had been agreed upon between the governor and themselves.

is the equally old-fashioned netting. For long years past this species of handwork has been left almost ex- clusively to fishermen and their wives.
 It served for fishing nets and that was about all But now 1t is coming back as fast as 1t can to the place 1t occupied, let us say, hundred years ago. in the repertoire of fancy work for women.
 Then was the time when dainty slipper-cased feet were put forward and used in the service of the kind of fancy work known as knitting. Now machinery does great deal of the work which human fingers aided by the foot used to do.
 But whether wrought by fingers or machinery, it remains a fact that old fashioned netting is distinct revival and that its presence in drawing rooms throws an air of fashion around them. The effect of embroidery upon 1t are now more artistic than of yore, na- ture as we'll as pictures often servins as models.

DECORATIONS IN THE HOME
Especial Feature of the Moment ls the Lavish Use That Is Being
 Made of Lace.

Lace assumes more and more the important place in the domain of home furnishing. It is so important that upholsterers have to employ lacemak- CTS and are obliged to make lace pur- chases on a considerable scale.
 Among other things. pianos and win dows are draped with lace. leaving room for legitimate upholstery to come afterward. All styles are available. The renaissance" combines with lace of quite modern origin. And, combin- ing with all and second to none in fashion or effect, is the oldfashioned crochet. The present taste for trocnet denotes a remarkable revival in this kind of thing.

 The collar is cut so that it may be brought up close about the neck, and, while the coat is not designed for cold weather, it has plenty of warmth to fortify one against the keen breeze of the sea or the morning chill of the mountain country and the "norther" that penetrates to southern climes.
 Such coat is destined to outlive a single season; it is so sanely fash toned that it may be relied upon to outlast the caprices of style for year or so.

 But exceptions which suit the style and features of the individual are al ways commendable. The pretty coif- fure shown in the picture is arranged in rather boyish lines about the face, with long side part and no curls. It is wholly redeemed from this masculine touch by the Psyche knot at the back. One cannot believe that any other style would be quite so becoming to this particular face, and this is the conviction which makes any coiffure successful

to the effect Italy's entrance into the con-

situation. Some see a shortening of the
war, with Germany's complete subjuga-

President Wilson speaks the word of
wisdom when he says:
''No man is wise enough to pronounce
judgment on the outcome of this titanic
struggle. It is only in general terms
that one can speak in the midst of con-

LASSEN AGAIN ERUPTS

Hat Creek Valley, in eastern Shasta
county, California, was threatened with
destruction recently when flood of mud
from the crater of Lassen Peak swept
over it. It took houses with it, killing
cattle and driving people from their
homes to the hills. Farms, it is report
ed, have been completely buried. The
mud in some places reached a depth of
four to six feet.
The latest outbreak of Lassen Peak
marks distinct point in the progressive
change in the character of the eruption.
according to geological survey experts,
and places Lassen in the category of
more or less dangerous volcanoes.
Heretofore the eruptions have carried
only powders and light ashes and black
smoke without illumination. The latest
eruption, however, is reported as involv-
ing genuine lava, whose cloud-reflected
glow resembles Stromboli, the active vol
canic lighthouse of the Mediterranean.
