WHAT A BUYER SAYS.

She is a cloak and suit buyer in
one of the large Washington estab-
lishmentS and it is part OF her stock
in trade to know what Washington
women want to wear. She must not
content herself with gucsSes. 1t is
not enough to be able to tell what
Washington women may want to
wear. She must read their pulse with
accuracy.
And this woman who under rstands
Washington taste about as we'll as
any one here says that Washington
women buy scnsibly and wisely. The
designer and manufacturer can put
over" new freak style on New York
women. and to less degree on Phil
adelphia women. They can get

cheap furs. But the Washington
woman who buys knows the differ
snce.
When she buys a cloak or a suit
she buys il for two years, says this
buyer Not that she intends always
to wear the garment for two years,
but because she knows that material
that will wear for two years will look
better the first season than the ma
tcrial that has no wearing value. The
Washington woman is reticent about
taking up new styles. She seeks to
buy cloak> and suits that suit her in
dividual needs rather than to buy
what Broadway dubs the --latest"
And the Washington woman knows
what She wants and she won't be per-

Washington, D. c., May 8.-Maybe
the ripping of the waters caused when
the ocean greyhound, the Lusitania,
was buried in many fathoms OF water
off the Irish Coast yesterday when her
hulk was pierced by German torpedo,
will lash themselves to death against
the shores of Great Britain, and, in
a short time, be forgotten.
Then again, maybe these self same
little ripples, started on their outward
journey in all directions yesterday aft
ernoon, will grow and grow in such big
proportions that little thing like a
coast line will not stop them, and even
the interiors of some of the countries
bounding the seas, may be washed by
them
This is possible Probable? Who
can tell?
In diplomatic circles in Washington
today. an intense feeling is showing
from behind the masks of the diplo-
matte set. There is but little being
said for publication. In fact, there is
but little being said at all. These dip
lomats, the shrewdest their respective
countries ever have produced. are TAX
ing 1t out in thinking.
What was In the mind of the Ger.
man War Lord when he sent a Ger
man submarine slipping through the
defenses of Great Britain. clear
around that island, and let it. with a
fac simile of the iron cross painted on
its coming tower. run amuck on Eng.
lands western coast, dynamiting and
torpedoing everything in It's sight?
The Latest Outrage.
The Lusitania, bound from an Amer
lean port, with scores upon scores oil
Americans on board her, was attacked
and sent to the bottom of the ocear
with but little warning. 1t came upor
the heels of the warning" issued By
Count ]. H. Won Bernstorff. represent
ing the Imperial German Embassy.
In this. the German Amhassado
warned prospective American traveller
from boarding British ocean steamers
or those of the countries at war wit
Germany. It came upon the heels Q

steamer by German aviators.

Cornonu Would Like TO See the United States Enlisted With
She May HaUeBeen
Bent Rather Badly,
But Was Not Broke
WHEN SHE REACHED NATCHEZ,
SHE BECAME FUSSY AND
SHOWED $12.

An echo of the recent canvass of the
city to secure funds for the use of an
alleged sickly mother and her 1e-year-
old son, who finally were placed on
board a Mississippi Central passenger
train and sent to Natchez, came from
that city today when 1t was learned
that the woman wasn't the penniless
creature that she had convinced sew
eral Hattiesburg persons that she was,
and that she wasn't so sickly after all.
Under the name of Mrs. Ellis, a
woman applied to Salvation Army
headquarters for assistance. She
wanted hospital attention and she
wanted money, she said. Capt. Nc
Afee, in charge of the local branch.
took up collection for the woman,
obtained free transportation for her.
and made arrangements with the
Natchez authorities to care for the
woman. She was placed on board a
train, and Natchez was notified Of her
coming.
From Natchez today, came the fol
lowing account of her arrival, and
what happened:
"A few nights ago a woman named
Ellis with her 16-year-old son arrived
here. The woman had been sent to
the Natchez hospital by the Salvation
Army Captain at Hattiesburg.
when the train arrived at Natchez
the Hospital was notified and an am
bulance sent to the depot, but when
the patient found that her son could
not go with her, she positively re
fused to enter the ambulance despite
the pleadings of the physicians and
Salvationists. She proved so obstrep
erous that an officer was called. On
this she exhibited ten or twelve dol
lars although she had said at Hatties
burg that she was without money.
"T am writing this Mrs. Haus
wirth, of Natchez Salvation Army
adds, 80 that the public may know
that the Salvation Army did its utmos
to assist the woman and the doctors
also. She is in the city now and is no
| deserving of assistance"

Later estimates made at Queens
town, where most of the survivors
were landed, placed 600 as the
outside number of saved. An
other report said that IS who ap-
parently had not been counted be-
fore, were saved. If this is true,
the number of rescued would be

Many survivors are bewiIdered,
and II is not yet possible TO get
clear statements regarding which
side of the ship was struck.
Within five minutes after the Sec
ond torpedo hit the ship, she list
ed so badly that it was impos-
sibIe to get the boats off of one
side.
The scene of the big liner when
she took her final plunge is de-
scribed as heartrending. Battling
for their lives, the doomed men
and women bade goodbye TO rela'
tives and friends. The lifeboats
which were not filled, circled
around the point where the LusI.
tania went down, picking up those
cIinging to objects or who were
kept afIoat by life belts. Soon
the boats were filled. -Four hours
before the steamers arrived or
the scene, many had died.
An investigation failed 70 re-
veal that the Lusitania wac given
any warning. Lookouts sighted
the submarine perlscope a thou
sand yards away, and the next
instant they saw trail left by
torpedo as il flashed on its course
toward the ocean liner. Then
came the terrific crash as the
missile pierced the steamers side,
followed almost Immediately by
another explosion which Uttered
the decks with wreckage.

The most modern newspaper press
that prints from type is being In
stalled In The News office today.
BY the latter part of next week the
big machine will be in operation. and
after 1t has been completely adjusted
the press-work of The News will be
second to that of no other newspaper
in the world.
1t was almost two months ago when
the proprietors of The News signed
contract with the Duplex Printing
Press Company, of Battle Creek, Mich
igan, for Duplex Standard, the press
that for nineteen years has been gener-
ally conceded to be the most complete
piece of printing machinery made. The
press had to be adjusted specially for
the requirements of this newspaper,
however, so that immediate delivery
was not possible.
The Duplex, which is monster
machine, weighing about twelve tons
net, and which cost $4,000, is capable
of printing, folding and counting at
least 5000 papers an hour. 1t is what
is known as a perfecting press. In
stead of having separate sheets of
paper fed into it by hand, the press
feeds itself from big roll attached to
one end; the paper is printed on both
sides, cut, pasted, folded and counted,
all in one operation; 5000 such opera
tions are accomplished each hour. -
Means Quick Delivery.
Determination on the part of the
managers of The News to give our
subscribers better press work and
earlier delivery of the paper are the
chief reasons for the purchase of the
press.
With the press now In use, The
News has labored under a number oil
handicaps. First, the machine now
used cannot print more than four
pages at a time, so, that when The
News is made up of six or eight pages.
it is necessary to lock up the forms
| on the inside pages early In the morn
ing Second, after the press now in
use prints the papers, they have to
| be fed into folding machine. which
| does imperfect work, and the result
usually is an uneven fold. Third. the
total time required to print The News
now is more than four hours, so that
subscribers living on the outskirts OF
the city receive their paper each al
ternoon later than they would like to
have it.
| All these difficulties are overcome
by the Duplex. The entire elgn'
pages are printed at .once. thereby
permitting all the forms to be held
/ open until the last minute, to take
care of the latest news items. The
Duplex folds the papers after printing
them, and the fold must be perfect

until the fold has been completed
