ODD CHARACTER PASSES
AWAY IN GERMANY
(By Associated Press. }

Munich, Germany, July 9.-One
OF the oldest characters in all Ger
many, Joseph Willroider, mas Just
died. aged IT. To the artistic world
OF Germany he was known as a bril-
liant painter; but to a much larger
circle, a circle which embraced hun
dreds of poor children. he was
known as the man who collected
cigar tips for their benefit.
Collecting tips--the tiny part of
cigars cut off before lighting the
weed-was Willroider's fad and had
been for many years. He had COL
lected thousands, the weight of
which ran into hundreds of pounds
and with their proceeds had pur-
chased clothes for poor children at
Christmas time.
WillrOider, many of whose paint
ines are in the famous Munich Pin
akothek, formerly lived in Dues
seldorf. From another artist, Buell.
meister of Vienna, he learned that
cigar tips were valuable, and in due
time founded the "Cigar Tip Col
lecting Association of Dusseldorf.
At the beginning of his 10th year
he himself had amassed 800 kilO-
grams or about 66l pounds of to-
bacco in this manner.
For severalyears Willroider and
his associates in this unique enter
prise took care of orphan children
in Duesseldorf each year, but event.
ually they were able to extend their
benefactions to poor children in the
towns near Dusseldorf. AS the us
ual charity found its way into the
newspapers. other organizations
similar to Willroider's were founded
throughout Germany, and exist to-
day.

PARIS THINKS OF STYLES
REGARDLESS OF THE WAR
tBy Associated Press. !

Paris, July 30. The short skirt
has brought back into style the high
shoes of the second empire. White
and fancy cOlors are no longer in
favor with the most fashionable
women who incline rather to plain
black entire cloth uppers, with pat
ent leather tips. The heels are
higher than they have ever been
since the eighteenth century. The
extremists of this style frequently
seen in the Bois de Boulogne, carry
themselves as if they were walking
on stills
Referring to the outcry in Berlin
against the "tyrannical domination
of Paris in the matter of styles, and
the campaign for purely national
German fashions, one fashion au-
thority declares that writer's, politi-
clans, and economists are powerless
to alter styles.
The Germans will have no more
success in their war on French styles
than will have the French on their
war on German music, in the opin-
ion of this authority
In proof of his assertion he pro-
| duces recent number of Berlin
| fashion review with fashion plates
| showing that there the closed UNI
brclla skirt has given way to the
bell skirt with the same plaits and
| trimmings as in Paris.
The Berlin hat, too, has taken the
rakish form of the forage cap and
worn well over on the ear, in mar
yelous imitation of what was seen
until recently in the Bois de Bou-
! logne and on the Champs Elysees.
| Now the hats in Paris have taken on
brim and are gradually widening
out, into rational compromise be-
tween the parasol and the turtan.

GERMANY AND ENGLAND
HAVE s0CIALISTIC TENDENCIES
(By Associated Press. }

Berlin, July 30. While England
appears just now to be showing a
strongly socialistic tendency in the
organization of it's industries for
military purposes, Germany has been
acting in the same spirit since the
war began, but in a different way. 1t
regularly give the preference, In
placing army contracts to artisan
workmen and their organization.
One of these organizations recent
ly received an order for 1000 pro-
vision wagons, costing $4,0O0,000;
and when certain manufacturers
tried to get part of the contract,
they were told to apply to this or
ganiZation.
The preference given to artisan
organizations Is so marked that the
Handelstag, or association of cham
bers of commerce, has several times
made representations to the Prus-
sian ministers of war and the in
terror, looking toward increasing
the orders given to the manufactur-
ing establishments. The Hendelstag
argues that the manufacturers also
have fixed bodies of trained work.
men who are in special need of earn
ing a livelihood during the war.
On the other hand, not a few min
or manufacturers, who actually get
army contracts, have grievance OF
different character. They COM
plain that they are not permitted to
compete directly for orders in such
amounts as they can handle, but
that contracts are given out In large
quantities, sometimes to organiza-
tions. and still more often to big
contractors who are not manufac-
turers at all. The first thing these
latter do is TO sub-let their contracts
among many small manufacturers at
very onerous terms. Thus 1t Is the
middle man that reaps the largest
part of the profits.

IT IS BELIEVED THAT PAUSE IN
RUSSIAN POLAND Is TO ALLOW

THEIR FORCES
(By Associa ted Press. }

London, July 29.-There is lit
tie definite news from the eastern
battle front except from Sokal, Ga
licia, where the Russians claim. to
have thrown the -Hungarians
back across the Dniester To the
east of the Narew the Germans cap
tured Goworowo, six miles from the
river, marking the extreme advance.
The exact status of operations is
puzzling. Even Petrograd is uncer-
tain whether the operations between
the Bug and Vistula rivers mark
crisis or a pause to allow one side or
the other to draw breath or rear
range forces.
Along the western front there is
comparative quiet. Berlin claims
that Paris admits the reoccupation
of the trenches on the Souchez Sec
tor.
Submarine warfare has been trans
ferred to the northeast coast of Suf-
folk from the Orkneys. near where
several ships have been sunk.
The eastern situation so far as de-
parture from neutralities is con-
cerned Is unchanged. The entente
allies, however, show considerable
irritation over Bulgaria's successful
negotiations with Turkey and also
may soon transfer this displeasure
to Rumania which is reported ready
to lift the embargo on grain exports.
