COSTUME
MADE Of
Old SAIL


on the shore of Lake Michigan, in
the foothills of high sand dunes.
In a wilderness Of pine trees and
a Jungle of marshes, miles be-
yond echo of human voices, has
been found Diana of the Dunes
Alice Gray, University of Chicago
graduate, who, since last October
has spoken less than a dozen
times to human creatures!
Diana of mythology was hLoWn
TO the Romans as the chaste god
des-Diana the huntress. She
hated men and went into the
wilderness to live in virgin pur-
ity.
This Diana in the flesh was
found hedged from the world by
two miles of almost inpenetraole
sand drifts and Doggy marshes.
Hair Bodied Like BOYS
1t was dawn when a girl re-
porter came upon her retreat. The
hut was empty, but bed of green
boughs, and two sinister revolt
vers on the foot of the bed was
assurance she had found The her
nit's hiding place.
A strong, 1.-the, clear-eyed,
smiling young woman, bare leg
ged as a nymph, hair cut boy fash
ion. face sunkissed to a deep
brown, sprang through the pine
scrubs.
A single garment was her only
attire. She brushed through the
pines, surprise and terror flash
ing in her eyes.

BY THE EDITOR

1t is shame that Jesse Jones' state senator found it
necessary to hang up this forenoon when right
III the midst Of an interesting telephone conversation
on politics
] was asking him about the letter which George
Lee, Seattle candidate for governor now SAYS he
wrote to Jones on Jan. 10, 1915
The partisan q. Q. p. press of the state printed it
"Wednesday i'll connection with attack by Lee
The Tacoma Times and the other Northwest Scripps
papers.
George Lee has written many remarkable letters
almost anybody that has heard about them will have
to concede that---bu none is more noteworthy than
the one to MY Dear jesse that was asking said
Jesse about.
In this Jan. 10 CD episte Lee advised Jones that
he believed senate bill No 40 to be highly dangerous
and urged Jones to vote against il.

public utility corporations and haze practically della,

1t later developed that slick Stone & Webster at
torney wrote the bill.
Well then, here is Lee producing a letter in
which he appears having been on JAM 10, 1915 an
OPPONENT of that colossal attempt at looting
commonwealth.
The partisan G. o. P press whose candidate Lee u.s.
:. publishes it with great gusto.
BU1-(here is why called up Jones) by consulting
the files of these very same papers discovered this
morning that Mr. Lee either is mixed III his dates, or
else that he is the champion political wealthervane of
the world.
FOR on JAM Is, 1915, two days after he now says
he sent Jones his letter of good advice. LEE AP-

would have ample proof OF it from the files of the very
papers that now are supporting him.
The Tacoma Ledger of Jam 10, 1915 for instance,
tells at length about Lees appearance before the
mittee
The Tacoma News of the same date says George A.
Lee, formerly member of the public service commits
sion, gave strong arguments in favor of the measure
And again:
"Mr Lee said the measure would spell development
and commercial prosperity
These accounts are verified by the Seattle P.-L,
which on the same day says Lee supported the bill"
The Seattle P-l of Feb 5, 1915, tells of public de-
bate in Seattle in which Lee argued the side of the
bill
Lee 1taS supported in his arguments before the leg
iMdtiae committee by Pratt, the Boston head of the T.

Seattle attorneys for Stone & Webster.

letter He said he did.
called his attention to the fact that Lee must have
suffered revolutionary change of heart between
those two January days if the date given the letter
was correctly printed
Jones said he didn't know anything about that, and
why didn't send reporter to see him personally.
Can he see the original copy of the letter if do?"
| asked him.

Mr.. Jones remarked negatively.

Romance is Not Dead EUen in the
Stnid Business Life of This City

That was the little rural stranger who
sat alone at table slipping a soft drink.
Jerry saw her and something about her
held his gaze. That night ne sang no
more sparkling gems from the frolics OF
Broadway. Instead he sang tender bal
lads and neglected parties that beckoned
him. That was several months ago.
II was the first and last time that
cabaret, or any other. saw the country
girl.
The incident was recalled when Jerry
and Miss Irene Olive, a domestic-appear-
ing little maiden. appeared hand-in-hand
at the marriage license clerks office in
tho court house TO get a marriage
license.
Cupid" Steubendorf, who hands out
the permits. recognized the singer and
welcomed him.
10, jerry Whachu gonna do? Leap?
Yep" answered Jerry. Me and Irene
are going 10 do a two-act, and I'm quit
ting the cabaret today forever. I'm
