II o'clock today, large number of

made a fine address and explained
his position, to the satisfaction of all
present, on various measures, among
which was the parcel post and the
tariff on citrus fruits. He was
roundly applauded when he declared
that he would be traitor to himself
and the great constituency he rep
resents, if he failed to conduct him
self as true Democrat, and that he
would rather go down to defeat up
holding his ideals of right and
wrong, than to ride into office on the
wings of popularity at the expense
of his honor, and he had therefore
taken stands for the rights of the
people on measures which he be-
lieved to be for the best interests of
his State and the people thereof.
In the interim, between the time
Mr.. Bryan spoke and Mr.. Farris was
introduced, Mr.. A s. Wells, candi-

MILADY'S new BOOTS
TO Be ALL revealing
That Is, Unless Skirts Come Down to
-r. Lowered Tops.
By the International New. Service.

CBy the International News Service }
London. Nov 30-The high-topped boot,
which has kept just about an inch ahead
Of the high-water skirt during the upward
trend Of the fashions in late years, is
doomed.
Down will come the boot to the 1903 or
whereabouts model. and In all human
probability the skirt will come down, too,
for obvious reasons-reasons which have
been becoming more and more obvious of
late years.
And here again we have the effect of
the war on fashions. Tbe-leather short
age has practically invaded milady's
boudoir and snatched away her Quickest
pair of high-topped boots. Hereafter If
some of the shining lights of the govern
ment have their way the shoe top will
climb not higher than the feminine ankle
So serious has the demand for leather
for war uses become that the high-topped
boot has been dragged by the button, so
to speak, before the court of public opin-
ion in the house of commons and it's doom
Is sealed.
1t is learned today that the government
has taken up the question of women
using an unnecessary amount of leather
in their boots with the National Union of
Boot and Shoe Operatives.

U. S. TIES HANDS
OF BORDER ARMY
Pershing Ordered to Fight
Only if Villa Makes Attack.

The 1000 United States troops now
stationed in the vicinity of Ell Paso.
Texas, will not be permitted to cross
into Mexico In an effort to catch
"Pancho' Villa no matter how close the
bandit leader may venture to the inter-
national boundary.
Instructions have been sent to Gen.
John J. Pershing. commanding the ex
pedition encamped at Casas Grandes, to
hold his forces inactive unless Vills
should approach and actually offer battle.
These orders will prevail at the War
Department until changed by instruc-
ti6ns from the White House.
The status of Gen. Pershings troops
and the border forces was obtained yes
terday froN an authority WHICH cam
not be questioned. Until now the I'M
preston has prevailed that should Villa
lead an attack on Juarez, across the
Rio Grande from El Paso. or pursue
Gen. Trevino. the Carranza commander,
to Ojinaga an effort would be made tc
capture him and carry out the original
purpose of the Pershing expedition.
The War Department officials still;
credit the unofficial reports that Chi
huahua City or a greater part Of the
Villa on Monday afternoon of this week.
Official reports are still lacking.
Representatives of the government in
official communication with the Ameri-
can members of the Mexican commits
sion predicted yesterday that First Chief
Carranza would not ratify the tentative
protocol signed at the last session Of
the Atlantic City conference. A note
from Carranza raising new issues be-
tween the two governments is expected
as soon as the cabinet meeting called
at QueretarO shall have been held.
The American members of the commits
sion are known to have expressed the
opinion that the Mexicans were not
sincere in their demand for the i'm
mediate recall of Gen. Pershing. Th6
advantage to the Carranza government
of having American troops In the dis
turbed district is now greater than at
any previous time.

Times have changed.

Times have changed.
No longer do the college youths gather
in their favorite cafes to celebrate the
victory of their team after a big foot
ball game. and no more does their eXuber-
ance cause a hurried call for the police
reserves. Nor do they roam the streets
in rival bands which meet and break each

Georgetown beat George Washington
yesterday in the biggest game Of the local
season. But with the game ended all
enthusiasm, as far as old time celebra-

A few years back Washington's lead
ing cafes were crowded on Thanksgiving
night with hundreds of students, and coll
lege yells and fights followed each other
in swift succession.
Last night a trip to the same cafes
revealed no hilarious crowds, in fact,
nothing that could be called a crowd at
all-only the usual number of regular
patrons.
