DESIGNERS WANT LONGER
SKIRTS COMING SEASON
(By United PresS)

Chicago, Dec. 16.-The man with
an eye for nifty ankle would better
get in his full share of looks pretty
quick-for soon there aren't going
to be any nifty ankles. They are not
going to disappear per Sc but they
are going to disappear from sight.
Sentence was passed on them to-
day by the Designers Association of
Women's Clothes, in session here.
Skirts are to be longer. Much long
er. The whole motif in dressing is
to be different Artistry in design
and long flowing lines are to be de-
pended on for charm and attention
as against "see more" styles of today.
But in the edict the dress design
ers have reckoned without the ma
kers of women'S shoes. They are in
the campaign hot and heavy to keep
the skirts up. If skirts go down."
said a plea in shoe trade journal,
"the high priced and frequently pur-
chased footwear will be replaced with
less expensive kinds so something
must be done to stop the descent. I"

FIGURES SHOW DRUNKENNESS
ON DECLINE IN ENGLAND
(By United Press)

London, Dec. 16.-lf any accurate
estimate can be made while so many
men are away at the fighting front,
it would appear that drunkenness In
England and Wales has decreased
since the war began. A Blue Book
has been issued purporting to show
decrease of 48,017 convictions for
drunkenness during 1915.
The greatest decrease In the con-
sumption of liquor appeared in ag-
ricultural counties on the east coast.
In some of these convictions for
drunkenness dropped 41.8 per cent,
The mo treating law" undoubtedly
has aided in reducing the consump-
ton Of fntoxicants. During the last
six months of 1915 there were only
42,342 convictions for violating the
mo treat" law as compared to 49,
$50 during the first half Of the year.
Throughout the entire year Of 1916
there were only 1851 drunkards
convicted, which Is the lowest NUM-
7ber recorded for nearly forty years
and il % per cent below the total for
1913. OF these convicted In 1915,
32,211 were women.

Ell Paso, Dec. 16.-Wholesale ar

breach of neutrality laws and in aid

Government forces, since the cap

before the city was captured, Villa
received $4,000 cartridges. It is be-:
ieved that they were shipped from;
the American side.
It is also believed that Villa is
preparing for another attack. Per-
sons arriving here claim that Villa
is holding Bachinava.

TOY MANUFACTURE AND ROAD

r(By:. United Press)

Winnipeg, Man., Dec. 16.-Ab-
sorbing it's crippled returned SOL
diers into civilian life through Of
fering them work in a great toy fac
tory, Winnipeg today hoped to en-
ter the worlds market as toy pro-
ducing center. It is certain that at
least on this side of the border, toys
marked made in Canada" will be
far more popular than those labeled
made in Germany"
Constructing a great highway
across Canada is another means pro-
posed for absorbing the unemployed
crippled soldiers returned from the
European battle fields. The road
would perhaps start at Halifax,
thence run to Moncton, then follow
the St. Lawrence to point opposite
Quebec. Ottawa would then be touch
ed and the road would take a
straight line to Winnipeg, extending
west through Brandon, Regina,
Moose Jaw and Medicine Hat. From
Calgary to Vancouver, distance of
$50 miles of most beautiful Canadian
Rockies, the road is practically COM
pleted already.

MONEY IS FOUND
UNDER MATTRESS I
AFTER PRISONERS
HAD BEEN TAKEN 4
Chief Ripple Gets on Job After Al
legged Holdup and Discovers
-Four Dollars.
REVOLVER IS ALSO FOUND: ].
EVIDENCE BELIEVED STRONG
Accused "Look Pleasant" as Pictures
are Taken; Judge Fisk to
Hear Evidence.

What is believed to be convincing
evidence in the case of Fred Wilson
and Mac Wroat, accused of having
held up Harry Reed and a compan-
ion at the point of revolver in the
500 railroad yards early yesterday
morning, has been secured by Police
Chief Ripple when he searched the
room occupied by the accused. Four
one dollar bills and a revolver were
found in the room after Officer Zach
arias had taken the pair into GUS
tOdy. :
To representative of the Pioneer,
Reed stated that he believed 81 was
secured from his companion whom he
knew only as "Joe," the latter being
on his way to a lumber camp at the
time of the holdup. Reed also stated
that "Joe" had about $25 which the
alleged thugs overlooked.
The finding of the four one dollar
bills seems to confirm the statement
of Reed and the fact that Chief Rip
ple discovered the bills under the
mattress of the bed is also taken to
indicate an attempt to hide the
whereabouts of the money.
Reed claims gun was thrust into
the face of "Joe'' but when Officer
Zacharias placed the accused under
arrest no gun was found on them.
In a brief interview at the city
Jail, the man giving the name of Will
son stated that he didn't have nerve
enough to do a holdup stunt, but
Chief Ripple regarded the assertion
as old stuff and paid no attention
to it.
Today the prisoners were mug
ged" (pictures taken) and they will
be arraigned before Judge D. H. Fisk
for a hearing. {
Chief Ripple is of the belief the
prisoners are headed for Saltwater
as, he says he has convincing prooE
of guilt.

PENDERGAST LEAVES
TUESDAY FOR ST. PAUL

Judge L. G.. Pendergast, represen-

district, whose home is in Bemidji,
leaves for the state capitol next
Tuesday to sort of get onto the ropes
previous to the opening of the state
legislature. He intends to remain
until the opening of the session.
''Seems as though everyone is a
candidate for speaker but myself" "
remarked Mr.. Pendergast, ''and I
guess it is up to me to get the votes
for all of 'em."
The location of the proposed nor
NAL school in Bemidji is a piece of
legislation that will attract consid-
erable attention and from all appear
ances there seems to be considerable
work to be done to get the measure
through.
