when this design is a trifle smarter
than other seasons, but it is always in
fashion and usually in strong demand.
This season it mas taken a high place
in the affection of the public. Coat
suits, one-piece frocks, capes and other
wraps are made of it. 1t is sometimes
trimmed with marine blue or any
shade Of dark red, but an application
of solid black is the best way to
treat 1t.
These capes are about the only kind
of top garment that is not belted; they
swing free and full from the Shout
ders, but there is a fashion law against
their being too full and the dressmak-
ers have invented several ways of
making the cut irregular and full of
character.
Introducing the Waistcoat.
+ The house of Cheruit was the first
to revive the waistcoat as an addi
ton to cape These waistcoats
were of fur, of heavy brocade or cord
ed silk and were incorporated in
swinging army capes of dull green,
brown or blue. In order to keep the
sides from blowing away from the
figure, there were slashed openings
near the selvage. thru which the
hands ara thrust to reach pockets in
the waistooat
In the summer capes, the waist
coat is of thin materials, such as en-
broidered satin. ribbed silk and again
white pique or linen. The white wash
waistcoats are introduced into blue
broadcloeh capes and fastened in front
with the high, cone-shaped button of
the English navy. By the way large
number of these capes are touched up
in some way with army or navy but
tons of the allied countries, to add
to their military appearance.
AS substitute for the conventional
waistcoat which is attached to the
cape at the shoulders. there are two
extra wide pieces cut in one with the
fronts and they are crossed over the
bust to form a diagonal waistcoat
the ends cross at the back, at the
WatStline and come toward the front
to tie in a loose knot
AS these long ends, as we'll as the
entire cape, are lined with a brilliant
ly printed crepe, the effect is strik-
ing and is especially good with a SOM
Der frociS beneath.
End of Pockets Not in Sight.
The majority of experts confidently
predicted the end of pockets last win
ter, and for a while there was a no
ticeable absence of them. The dress
makers thought that there was moth
ing new to be found in these appen-
dages, but the late spring season
brought them out in full force again,
and a good many new ideas seem to
have been discovered for them.
They do not limit their appearance

of this by the best dressmak-

Three Valuable Books
Received at Library

The city public library is now in re-
ceipt of three books of interest to those
who arc keeping up with world affairs.
One is "Our Nation in the Building"
by Nicholay, in which the author em-
rhasizes the fact that American history
is not mummy-iike at all but is full of
inspiring incidents brimming with hu-
man nature.
Another interesting book is the one
written by Arthur Bullard who has been
in France and England since the out
break of the war. From his observa-
tions he attempts to suggest ways by
which America may profit by the mis-
takes of England and France. The book
is titled "Mobilizing America.
"Life in the U. S. Naval Academy,
The Making of the American Naval
Officer" is written by Ralph Earle,
commander at Annapolis. 1t is a full
account of the life of the midshipmen
from the time he enters the academy
to the time he is graduated an ensign.
For the children the library will have
ready by Saturday, the series of "twin
books, such as the Dutch Twins, Irish
Twins, japanese Twins, Mexican Twins
and Eskima Twins.

JIMMY CALLAHAN
HAS VIND|CAT|ON
Suspension Of al Mamaux by
Bezdek Tends In That
Direction
By II. O. Hamilton,

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent.l
New York, August 11.-When Hugo
Bezdek, new manager of the Pirates,
suspended AL Mamaux, ne gave partial
vindication, at least, of the measures
taken by Jimmy Callahan to put some
thing into the Pittsburg club.
Callahan was pilloried extensively
for diseiplining the temperamental star.
1t was declared Callahan didn t know
George Gibson, now with the Giants,
was the only man who could get any
work out of the youngster.
1t is being directly charged now that
Mamaux is and has been playing for
his release. He is not trying to win,
it is stated, because he figures he
eventually will be transferred to some
other club, preferably the Giants.
Evidently there is no chance Of such
transfer for John McGraw recently
went out and pulled off trade for
AL Demaree, adding q mediocre right
handler to his staff il he could have
obtained Mamaux he doubtless would
have done So
Despite the fact that Joe yelling is
generally recognized ais the logical
man to meet Benny Leonard in his first
first real championship bout with q
lightweight, there is small chance OF
the boys getting together unless Well
ing changes managers.
There is feud of long standing be-
tween Billy Gibson, manager of the
lightweight champion, and Jimmy
Johnston, who directs the affairs Of
yelling.
When Leonard met and defeated
Freddie Welsh, winning the lightweight
championship, Johnston gave out
statement declaring that Leonard did
not and could not weigh 1873 pounds,
This statement was contradicted, not
only by Gibson and Leonard, but by
Welsh s manager, who said Leonard
weighed Just what was announced.
This didn't help. any to cfear away
the clouds between Gibson and Johns
ton, and they seem just as far apart
as they ever were. The logical guess
is that Johnny Dundee will be sent
against the New Yorker, although he Is
hardly fitted more than several other
boys.
Erankie Callahan, the Brooklyn light
weight, also wants a chance at the
title. 1t ia doubtful if Callahan would
have chance for victory in ten
rounds, hut in long scrap the verdict
might be changed, for the Brooklynite
is one of the toughest.

Gas Substitute Is

Another test equally successful was

disclosed today, while third trial
was made in March by w. L. Hough-
son, president of the Pacific Kissel Kar

Houghson pronounced the discovery
fthe most remarkable since the in

The following description of his
compound was given by Kormann:
eIt is a chemical compound COM
posed of liquids and solids, which can
be used as a substitute for gasoline
by putting two ounces of it into a
gallon of water. Chemical reaction
then takes place and liberates the
hydrogen and oxygen gases in the
water. Depending upon those gases
and the normal constituents of nitrogen
as an air content, we get highly com
bustible gas at the point of ignition,
giving an absolute substitute for gaso-

ROOSEVELT ROASTS
| ALLEGED AMERICANS
DenOunceS PaciaSts--- Would
Suppress All Papers
Printed In Germany

New York, Aug. 10. = Denouncing
some senators, congressman and news
paper editors as standing where the
copperheads stood in the civil war;
Colonel Roosevelt demanded suppress
sion Of the German language press, de-
Iportation of "5050 Americans" and
called upon every man, woman and
child in the country to exert every
ounce of energy to win the war.
When asked concerning statements
attributed to him by DR.. Kuno Meyer,
Berlin professor, in Amsterdam dis
patches, Roosevelt said Meyer was
guilty of ''gross impropriety' in quot
ing him concerning compensation and
indemnities victorious Germany
might collect.
1 Mr.. Meyers statement is sub
lstantially correct, with this exception =
said Roosevelt. "I did not say the
Austro-German victory would entitle
them to compensation or indemnities,
or to form mid European federation
under Germany s agency. What l said
was that il Germany was victorious,
she would undoubtedly exact the ut
most limits of compensation and indem-
nifty she could wiring from all her ad-
lversaries, including the United Saates
and added she would take them from
the United States whether we went tC
war or not. Mr.. Meyer and his wife
called on me in May, 1916"
Roosevelt said his conversation with
Meyer occurred after he had spoken
at Chicago and Detroit on the need for
American preparedness in view Of Ger
many's hostile attitude.
"What / said to him was what
said in these speeches so far as Ger
many and the duty Of this government
is concerned" he said.
Must Fight to the End
Discussing the present war outlook
Roosevelt said:
81 now hope the United States will
make up its mind to fight this war to
a triumphant conclusion until Germany
is completely everthrown without re-
gard fer what any other nation does
Even if all abandoned the struggle, the
United States should continue. We are
fighting for our right and dearest in
terests, to make the world safe for Am
erica. Until America shows her ability
to do that, she should not talk about
making the world safe for democracy
Now let every man, woman and child
in this country strain every nerve so
at the earliest possible moment our
giant strength may be used to win the
victory
Let us remember that pacifists and
pro- Germans stand where the copper
heads stood in the civil war. This ap-
plies to some senators and congressman
and newspaper editors. hope congress
will Immediately pass a law refusing
to allow any paper to be published in
German or the language of any other
of our opponents while the war lasts.
Its all very well to stop the Appeal to
Reason and similar socialist papers, but
at the same time let us make German
papers use language that ordinary Am
orleans can understand.
elm this country now there is no
room for the $3.50 man, half American
and half German. He must be all Ger
man or all American or nothing else.
We demand that every man become an
American and if he stays part German,
then ship him back to Germany where
he belongs
