Partisan Economy,

It is doubtful if American women
have fully grasped the fact that for
nearly two years now Partisan style
makers have been endeavoring to get
the very best effects with the smallest
expenditure. Hence the wool embroid-
cry, the linen coat facings, the oiled
cloth collars and cuffs. And, incident
ally, it will be interesting to notice
whether when they do discover it
Americans will resent this untradi-
tional economy.

Paneled Wall Paper.

Panel effects are achieved very clev-
erly these days by means of wall pa
per, and one of the best mediums for
summer cottage is plain-toned pa
per in fawn, gray or cream tones, out
lined by floral band that exactly re-
produces the desiEn of the cretonne
hangings and upholstering of the room.
These panels are rather large, so the
floral band is not in the least In
trusive and the monotonous effect Of
the paper is pleasingly relieved.

SCIENCE HALL DESTROY
 ED AT OUACHITA
No Injuries Reported and None Believed to Have Occurred Two Buildings Untouched by Flames.

Philadelphia, March 15.-(SpeciaD Tire originating from a defective f1ue early Wednesday morning des- toved Science Hall, one of the four buildings constituting Ouachita Col ara damaged the girls dorritory end the administration building, and
 al a loss of approximately 2I2,- 900. Quick work by firemen, aided by
 ,s saved the two structures to which the fire spread from Science hal.
 Science Hall, two-story brick structure, is a pile of ruins. The building and contents were insured adequately, it is said.
 All students in the dormitory fled from the building before the flames
 read to it. Many of them are 'q losers because of damage to
 ng apparel However, so far as
 le ascertained, no one was in- jured.
 The fire was discovered about l o'clock, and 30 minutes later Science hal had been destroyed and the James had spread to the dormitory. 4 high wind carried whirling sheets of red hot iron and burning timbers against the dormitory and the admin istration building.
 A small wooden building adjoining the dormitory caught fire and was de- stroyed, and flames burst out in sev- eral places in the dormitory itself. Rapid fire fighting prevented the fire in the dormitory, a three-story, brick structure, from getting beyond con- trol.

IL, Cain is Lost and Close Ds'% Shovs 7.13 Point Decline
 panorts of Increased South ,rn offerings at Higher Prices

Nav York. March 15.-The broad
 i.n n, Wall street demand caused s.its snits T sharp advance in the cotton gsrtet g during today's earlier trad ;as in9' hut there were reports of in- ns, s,.ol Soatheu offerings at the ,:s,sr rrces and the market broke '.s a no-o rapidly than it had ad- '.,s.ei . with July contracts selling off ,s.m ,', t2 26c to 12.07c, and closing at 10 noe. The general list closed steady hn+ last prices showed a net loss of Tin ls points for the day.
 Somewhat disappointing Liverpool ,,bps. rumors that spot offerings in tbe South had been rather freer at tbe advance late yesterday and a feel ;no that the bullish census figures on aomestic mill consumption for the rontb of February had been discount a5 seemed to encourage a reactionary view at the start.
 Trade interests were again buyers of Iuly on a scale down, however, and ss tbe market steadied an active Wall street demand developed. Covering assisted the advance, which carried May contracts up from 11.96c to l2O3c whio October rallied from l227c to l237c, or 1 points above last nights closing figures.
 Buying orders were withdrawn fol- lowing a private forecast for rain in the Southwest by Sunday and rumors reaching here from Memphis that France might prohibit the importa- ton of cotton after the end of March and the market became unsettled in the late trading. Part of the offer ing seemed to come from Southern sources, while there was probably some local pressure on advices from New Orleans claiming that March commitments were about covered. May broke to ll.S9c and October to l2lsc, and the market closed within point or two of the lowest.
 Cotton closed steady.

 Orpet testified that he made the trip
 to allay her fears and to explain a story which had reached Marion trat he was engaged to one Celestia You ker, but the elaborate efforts which he made to keep the trip secret, and his subsequent conflicting statements of it to officers of the law developed into the most damaging evidence against
 him. It led to the menacing question of MT. Joslyn, reiterated again and again-"Why? Why? Why? Why did you come? You brought no relief; you brought no medicine: you brought no tenderness-no words of love. Why did you come?''
 On February 8, Orpet at Madison left three letters, post-dated February 9, with his friend Otto Peterson to be
 mailed on the latter date One was to his mother one to Marion, and the third to Marion's friend Josephine Da- | wis. They were worded to make it ap- pear that the writer was in Madison ] on February g, the day he kept his

tryst in the woods with Marion, and she came to her death.
 Orpet explained on the stand that the alibi letters, as they came to be known, were written so that if by ac- cident he were seen at Lake Forest and word of the fact reached Marions par ents, who objected to him, or his own parents, who expected him to remain faithful to college duties at Madison, they would accept the letters as con- elusive evidence to the contrary. The letter to Josephine was to corroborate that to Marion Josephine testified that she never received it.
 On the afternoon of the eighth, in a dark overcoat which he said he had borrowed to wear with a dress suit to party which he expected to attend on the twelfth, carrying the bottle of molasses and water in his pocket, and leaving behind him the alibi letters and bed rumpled to deceive his landlady, the student proceeded by way of Mill waukee, where he spent a half hour or so between trains, to Lake Forest.

 When Orpet returned to college in the fall of 1915 frequent letters were exchanged.
