 The handsomest of materials. elabor- ately embroidered in gold and silver threads and multi -colored jewels, has been used in building these costumes. Of espe- cial beauty and gorgeousness are the wedding suits to be worn by Yum Yum and Nankipoo the robe of state worn by the Mikado and those of Ko-ko. the lord high executive, Pooh-Bah, lord high; everything else, and Pish Tush.

one of its leading figures Jim" Mills,
a man -about-towu much resembling

lack Of scruples and heartlessness he
makes many hearts bleed i'm anguish
such q man. as the Mills of this story
ami tine Oliver of real life, is not de-

1901, ne was exceedingly active in the
trade union and the Socialist move
ment in that country. where he was
intimately associated with William
Morris. Walter Crane and others.
Prominent Rsformer.
In the United States Mr. Spargo has
spent many years in the Socialist and
social reform movements He was one
Of the founders of the prospect House
settlement Of Yonkers. His book, 1.-THE
Bitter Cry Of the Children" has done
much to assist in the work for better
child labor laws and his authoritative
treatise son the milk Question" has
aided materially in obtaining better
milk for the babies of the poor. He
has also served as delegate to the
national and international conventions
OF the Socialist party and as a member
Of Its national committee. He has
travelled extensively both in America
and abroad and has addressed scores

THE Spiritual Significance Of Social
ISM" etc. His latest work, to be pub
lished in November. is an exhaustive
study OF the relation Of the theories OF
Karl Marx and his followers to the
essentials Of religion. Some of his
smaller pamphlets have gained a cir
culation Of many millions and have
placed him in the ranks OF the fore
most pamphleteers Of the day. They

I'VE do not believe that the persons

the urgings OF their own whims and
personal desires. The majority of
those signing the petition are small

Washington.-Pres Wilson has broken off diplomatic relations with Germany and warned the kaiser that ruthless sacrifice of -Auarica.n---liEess and rights means war.
 The president made formal an nouncement of his action to the coun- try and to the world at a joint ses- 7sifts of Congress.
 Passports have been handed to Count von Bernstorff Ambassador Gerard, with all his staff and all American consuls have been ordered out of Germany All German consuls in the United States are expected to withdraw, that the severance of rela- tions may be complete. American diplomatic interests in Berlin have been turned over to Spain. German diplomatic interests in the United States have been taken over by Switz- erland, Foreign diplomatic interests which the United States had in charge in Germany have been turned over to various neutrals
 Two years of diplomatic negotia- tions, marked with frequent crises and attended with the loss of more than 200 American lives on the high seas, have eliminated with an act which in all the history of all the world always led to war.
 Will Check conspiracies.
 Every agency of the American gov ernment has been set in motion to protect the country against acts of German sympathizers.
 With the notice of severance of re- 1ations the United States sent to Der ifn demand for the immediate re- rease of GA Americans taken from s]ships captured by German raiders in Z the South Atlantic.
 At the request of the president, Congress, immediately after hearing his address, began work on new laws framed by the Department of Justice to check conspiracies and plots against the United States which can not now be reached under existing statutes.
 The question of conveying Ameri- can merchant ships through the sub marine blockade has been taken up and is being considered as one of the next moves.
 Nuetral governments have been no tifed of the action of the United States and have openly been invited to follow it's action if the new subma rine campaign violates their rights.
 The breaking off of relations came with a crash despite the fact that if had been discounted and practically determined upon The president
