 Many diplomats here however. we're inclined to believe that the trip of Colonel House might be Instrumental eventually in developing unofficially an understanding of conditions under which the belligerents would make peace. Colonel House is on intimate terms with some of the principal for eign secretaries of Europe and most of the American ambassadors in Europe were his close associates before going to foreign posts.
 Colonel House bears letter saying he is the personal and unofficial rep esentative Of President Wilson. so branches of relief work will not hes itate to discuss their plans and CO., operate with him freely.
 While engaged in this work Colonel House is expected to gather much in- formation that may be of value to President Wilson In evektualities that may arise when prospects for peace are in sight only few days ago the President was asked if there was any movement in view for peace and he replied that he saw nothing definite. That prominent unofficial persons in all the belligerent countries have been active recently in trying to get a move ment for peace under way has been re- ported. At no time recently, however. has there been any official exchanges relatIng to peace.

BODY OF GARDNER FOUND IN TH|CKET
 |ON BANK OF A CREEK
Bullet Hole In Back of Head of Baltimore Man-His Brother Has Not
 Been Found

Welaka, Fla. February 7.-The body of
 Alonzo G. Gardner of Baltimore was
 found today in a dense palmetto thicket
 along the banks of Raft Creek near
 Georgetown. Death had been caused by
 shot in the back of the head. He and his brother, Horace B. Gardner of
 Springfield Mass. have been missing
 for three weeks.
 No trace has been found of the latter,
 but the authorities believe he also is
 dead. It is thought that both men were
 killed for the purpose of robbery. The pockets of the brother found today had
 been turned wrong side out Both are
 known to have worn valuable jewelry
 and are said to have carried considerable
 money. A scarf pin was the only jew elry on the body found.
 Search for the men was begun immed- lately after a negro pilot returned here alone on January P, with the yacht
 which the brotheres had engaged for use on hunting trip up the Oclzlawaha river. The negro shortly afterward disappeared and efforts to find him thus far have failed.
 | Charred camp equipment belonging to the Gardners was found about week ago by the place where the body was located. It's finding strengthened a the- ory held by the authorities that the two men had been murdered. They believed
 that the guilty person had attempted to burn the camp articles to make it more difficult to trace the movements of the | brothers.
 The body recovered was found by Cap tain Hiseock of a river mail boat, and l Oliver Lind. The dead mans hand gripped 22 calibre rifle, which he pre-
 sumably had had for the purpose of shooting small game In addition to the
 wound in the back of his head, his face was mangled almost beyond recognition

There will also be several bouts be- tween negro boxers These are always interesting and often provide keen amusement. The battle royal will, of course, be the amusement feature of the evening and extra preparations have been made to have this feature the best of any of the previous stags.
 In conclusion, the stag tonight will undoubtedly be the best ever despite the obvious fact that Wambsgands is cleverer boxer than O'Brien. Both boys will weigh about 147 pounds and are practically evenly matched It surely ought to be some battle-and then. again, watch for the E. A. c. surprise.

OF Different DESIGN
FRENCH AND AMERICAN TAI.
LORED SUITS VARY WIDELY.
Women Here Have Accepted Models
Popular in France for Two Sea-
sons-Width Of the Skirt May
Be Moderated.

Everywhere among the best Of the
American tailored suits Is shown the
tendency to elongate the sides Of the
coat and place the fullness there.
There is no material in the front, and
in the back the circular part Is
smoothed out so that the line is grace
full and not bunglesome. The French
coats, on the contrary, carry the full
peplum around the figure on a straight
line. and the only irregular line is
placed at the hem of the skirt The
latter idea was started by the house of
Premet among the first short wide
skirts shown, and it was greeted with
kpproval by the designers, but not by
the public over here; women thought
1t savored of a ragged robin effect.
Today it IS generally accepted, a
year after it's Inauguration, which is
the fate of most fashions, really. Rare

prevailing thing have more than

a novelty, whereas every house in
Paris showed it last August and two
seasons have come since then. In

flying its width. When we do it here

not save considerable sum of money
