THERE will not be a dearth of
 agreeable and stimulating clothes this year. Indeed despite the fact that the great French houses did not turn out as large a collection as usual and did not show many striking novel, ties. there are enough changes to keep women from using up many of their old clothes in warm weather.
 We are tired of our winter clothes. women are made like that. If they should suddenly change, an enormous percentage of the population would be thrown out of work, so perhaps, after all, feminine vanity and it's attendant love of novelty are not unmitigated evils. That thought may be reassuring to the woman who yields to the lure of the new cottons and linens and silks and woolens these days.
 | There is a. large class of women in America, as in other countries. who buy cIotk es for their quality. for the reason, as they say, that they stand a chance of not going out of fashion

~ PORTS clothes today are friv- ~ olous and impractical to an A annoying degree. Incidentally
 they are charming and ex- pensive to a degree quite amazing.
 Those silk sweaters, for instance, and those white satin sports suits and those heavy corded silk sports coats and those astonishing silken bathing costume mes-extravagances, all of them, but so amusing, so pretty and so com fortable. Even the most weird of the Russian bathing costumes are comfort able, and all the gay silken stuffs pressed into service are more com fortahle during much of our summer weather than any woolens.

BOND ROW is over
City Will Issue Paper Totaling
S234,413.75 for Paving.

City paving bonds totaling 1884,
413.75, temporarily tied up through a
restraining order obtained by the Mis-
souri, Pacific railroad, will be issued
shortly after July 1 as originally
planned. This was definitely decided
today following advice that a stipula-
ton has been. made by the railroad
through which they agree to withdraw
their restraining order if the city will
eliminate from the bond issue $729.9S,
the amount involved in the contro-
verSy.
While the Missouri Pacific railroad
paid $496.95, their. paving tax Tor
property on Fifteenth street between
Monroe and Madison they refused to
pay the tax on property a block north
The Fourteenth street property is an
unplatted strip of land back of a num-
Der of plated lots. The road claimed
exemption from paving tax under an
old supreme court decision.
With the restraining order cleared
out of the way this morning, arrange
ments are rapidly being completed for
the issuance of the bonds. The total
issue will amount to $234,413.75, and
will mature in ten years. The bonds
will pay for paving to be laid this
summer.
The issue will include $40 hundred
dollar bonds, 400 5-hundred dollar
bonds, and one bond for $413.75. The
odd bond for $413.75, forty $500 bonds
and thirty-fou 800 bonds will ma
ture in 1917. Every year thereafter
until 1926 forty $500 and thirty-four
500 bonds will be redeemable. The
bonds will be dated July 1, 1916.

They Will Hold a Reunion at

"reminiscences of the old days in
Erie when Jay House and Bill Rapps
were team mates on the Erie town
baseball club were recalled today in
the mayors office by David Hazen,
telegraph editor of the Portland Ore
gon Telegram. Hazen who is well
known in Kansas newspaper circles
was initiated into the news game by
Mayor House.
incidentally it became known to-
day for the first time that Hazen was
responsible for the three column cut

townsman was in Portland, he bor-

citizens. He described the mayor S

His Visit to Lecompton.
This week he repeated the per-

when House visited in Lecompton.
The next day the mayor wrote for
his paper an account of all the family
skeletons about the village. Every
subscriber within ten miles of Le-
compton ordered his subscription can

He told a story of Erie to the effect
that the mayors first failure to make
a Fourth of July visit to the home
town nearly resulted in breaking uI
plans for celebrating the day.
But city hallers received with keen
est interest information that the
mayors middle appellation is Elmer.
Not only that, but in the old home
town he still is best known as Elmer

RUSH ALL TROOPS


The announcement of the new or
ders was made officially after today's
cabinet meeting but it was understood
that they actually had been issued
before the cabinet convened. No ex-
PLANTATION was offered for the change
in the original plan to send only a part
of the available guardsmen at present
and officials would not disclose wheth-
er news of any important Develop
ments in Mexico had caused the step,
The original orders to the guards
men were for their mobilization in
state concentration camps to await
further orders. The war department
had planned to call upon the states
which effected the best and earliest
complete mobilization, having regard
to the distance and time for transpor-
tation.
Todays orders are expected to re-
suit in the immediate movement to-
ward the border of separate regiments
from many states whose entire Ma
tiona1 Guard strength has not been as
sembled- The war department had no
advices today showing definitely the
progress of the mobilization of the
100000 national guardsmen called for
border service.
Cut Out All Red Tape.
By the new order, mastering Of
r1cerS IN the various departments are
instructed to submit to the depart
mental commanders reports on the
progress being made by each National
Guard organization with its rrlobiIiza-
ton On the basis of these reports the
department heads will be able to in
dictate to General Funston the approx
mate time when each regiment or other
unit under their Jurisdiction will be
ready for service and consult his de-
sires as to the point to which each
shall be sent.
Regiments will go to the front in
the order in which they become ready
for service.
The entire operations will be carried
out between General Funston and the
departmental commanders. The war
department will know of what is pro-
ceeding only as a matter of informa
ton on reports submitted after the
fact by the departmental commanders
The object aimed at is to eliminate all
unnecessary delay and red tape in get

NOTHING TO ARBrTRATE.

In suggesting that an international
commission might be able to settle
the trouble between Mexico and the
United States. the entente govern
ments of Europe appear to overlook
the fact that, technically speaking, at
least, there is no trouble between
this country and its neighbor below
the Rio Grande; that a state of war
between them does not exist, notwith-
standing the slaughter of American
citizens that has occurred in Mexico,
notwithstanding the killing of Ameri-
can citizens in their own homes and
on their own soil by Mexicans, not
withstanding the presence in Mexico
Of many thousand American sol
diers, and Notwithstanding the most
recent treachery of the Mexicans in
ambushing a detail of these soldiers
ana moving them down like weeds
with 4 machine gun while they
Thought a par1ey was on. AS long as
the present and pleasantly peaceful
relations exist between Mexico and
the United States. there would appear
TO be no basis on which the suggested
International commission could set to
work.
