Mrs. Frank B. Kirby is always a
most charming hostess but her repu'
talion as a delightful entertainer was
enhanced by the beautiful bridge par
ty given Wednesday afternoon in hon

so soon to leave for her new home
in the west.
Yellow was the color note of the
occasion and her spacious parlors
were made sunny and fragrant by jon
Qiuls massed in baskets, each orna-
mented by bow Of yellow tulle. Upon
her arrival the honor guest was pre-
sented with a great bunch Of the same
bright flowers Of spring also tied with
tulle which contrasted beautifully with
her gown of old blue. The many ex.
quisite new spring costumes added
their quota to the brightness and
beauty of the occasion. Mrs. C. E
Scott made high score and her reward
was a mayonaise bowl of exquisite
hand-paihted china. Mrs. Matthews
received dainty silk hose as a parting
gift, and Mrs Allan Gearn carried
away the consolation prize. The
luncheon served was according to Mrs
Iilrby's standard and consisted of
three courses, the color scheme here
being carried out most deliciously and
the tables were indeed attractive and
beautiful in their array Of fine linen
and china and silver, with jonquils at
each corner. Those present were

SUPREME COURT
IN SESSION
Draft Law and Other Cases Caused
by the War Among the First
to be Decided
ASSOCIATED PresS)

Washington, Oct. 1.-Five big anti
trust cases involving the dissolution
of the United States Steel Corpora
tion, the International Harvester COM
pany, the United Shoe Machinery
company and the Lehigh Valley rail-
road and the Reading companies and
affiliate coal companies, the so-called
anthracite coal trust cases, together
with proceedings from four states to
test the constitutionality of the draft
law, are before the United States Su-
preme Court, which reconvened to-
day following the annual summer re-
cess.
Among the first cases disposed of,
it is expected, will be those growing
out of the enforcement of the draft
come up in their regular order, they
would not be reached for eighteen
months, but Attorney General Greg
ory plans to ask that they be advanc-
ed for early decision. While govern
ment officials, and especially those
connected with the war department,
feel there is no question about the
validity of the law, decision by the
highest court would do much to dis
courage contrary sentiment mani
tested in various sections of the coun-
try.
Appeals from the decision of Judge
Speer in Georgia, who upheld the
constitutionality of the law and cases
from Minnesota, Ohio and New York,
which include those of Emma Gold
man and Alexander Berkman, con-
victed of attempting to oppose the
carrying into effect of the law by
urging men within the draft ages not
to register, have been filed. All are
expected to be decided at the same
time.

AMUSEMENT FOR THE
AMERICAN ARMY
Colossal System of Recreation and
Instruction at the Train
ing Camps
ASSOCIATED Press)

Washington, Sept. Community
recreation for soldiers and sailors in
camp in training for the new Ameri-
is to be carried on, was explained in a
report made public today by Raymond
B. Fosdick, chairman of the war and
navy department commissions on
training camp activities.
Three dollars for each soldier and
sailor-a total of O,OOO-is to be
raised for this purpose. A national
committee, on which prominent men
and women are serving, has been
named by Secretary Baker to conduct
the campaign for the war camp COM
munity recreation fund.
Mr.. Manning shows the relation of
the war camp community recreation
fund to the work which is being done
inside the camps by such agencies as
the Young Mems Christian Associa-
tion and in the exclusion of vice and
visions resorts from the camp neigh
borhood.
Mr.. Manning reports that in each
city near a camp, social and recrea-
tional forces will be brought together
in one representative OF
churches, clubs, lodges, schools, col
leges, recreation centers, parks, NOV
ing picture agencies, women's agen-
cies-in fact, every force for good in
the community that can be used in
working for the highest welfare OF
the enlisted men. A census will show
the mems church preference, trade
or profession, of what societies they
are members, what their special in
terests in dramatics, athletics, music
or other amusements or recreation
may be, and what other special inter
est they have.

.GERMANY'S DARK
SOUL REVEALED

Raemaekers, the celebrated car
toonist of Holland, now in this coun-
try said:
Macmillan Harden has honored
me by saying that my cartoons have
done more to hurt the German cause
than all the articles that have been
written against Germany, but he COM
| planned that | represent the Germans
as nation of burglars. So I did.
That is what they are.
Twenty years ago | realized that
this war was coming. How did /
realize it so long ago? Because I
knew many Germans and read many
German books. knew that the Ger
man people believed that they were
destined to be the conquerors of the
world, and that the lower races-that
is what they call the Latins-are
made to serve them. Even then they
Dragged openly they must have Bel
gium and Holland and northern
France. Today they preach from
their pulpits that God is a German
that approves of the submarine war
fare; that under the kaiser, Germany
will rule the world. 1t is foolish to
blame the kaiser only. He is merely
the chief maniac in a nation gone
mad-a nation of burglars; a nation
which practices systematically sadis-
tic cruelties upon the women and
children.
Il say to you now, whatever you
may have heard of Germany, of the
conduct of German troops in France,
in Belgium, in Serbia, you have not
/ heard all, you do not know the worst.
l have seen photographs, so many
that if they were piled on that table
over there they would reach the cell
ing, photographs taken in Serbia by
a Dutch doctor whom I know, rows
on rows of the dead bodies of little
children upon whom the most fright
full crimes had been committed be-
fore they were slashed to death across

of woman after woman whose breasts
have been cut off. This have seen in

of the young girls who were deported
from Lille-'to work in the fields,
they said. Why, the German officers
took their choice of them.
Every officer was entitled to take
an orderly from among them. That is
nothing extraordinary to a German
officer. It's what he did with the
women of his own race before war be-
gan. Every one of these officers in
time of peace took a girl of the people
and lived with her when in garrison.
If there were consequences, he paid
her a small sum. And when he NOV
ed to another garrison he took an
other girl. That was all. The Ger
man people do not protest, though
their own daughters are taken. Is
/ the man not an officer? What redress
would they have?"

AWFUL STORY Of
ARMENIA
One of the Results of the Attempt of
Witless William to Conquer
the World.
ASSOCIATED Press J

New York, Oct. 1.-The slaughter
with axes of all the Armenian faculty
members of Anatolia College, Mar
sovan, Northrn Asia Minor, together
with 1000 others by Turkish peas
ants whose pay for the work was the
privilege of stripping the clothing off
their victims bodies, was described
here yesterday by Rev. George E.
White, president of the college, re-
Gently returned to this country. The
massacres were committed at night
by order of the Turkish government,
he said the Armenians being sent
out in lots of a hundred or two to
their doom and their bodies rolled into
prepared burial trenches.
"The situation for Armenia became
excessively acute in the spring of
1915 when the Turks determined to
eliminate the Armenian question by
eliminating the Armenians The Ar
menian questions arises from politi-
cal and religious causes.
''These things are typical of what
took place through the six provinces
of the Turkish Empire known as Ar
menia. The Armenians are the
Yankees of the East-the merchants,
manufacturers, capitalists, artisans
and among the best of the farmers.
One quarter of a million people sue
ceede din escaping into Russian eau
casus and among them American rep
resentatives have done wonderful
work in caring for the sick, giving
bread to the hungry, clothing the
naked, caring for orphans. Probably
a million more went to Syria and
Mesopotamia where they have been
dependent upon American relief which
is helping this worthy people to pull
through alive"
The number of Armenians who
have been massacred, said DIR. White,
is estimated by the American Com
mittee for Armenian and Syrian Re-
lief in New York city at from 500,-
900 to 100000 while there are a
million still living in need of imme-

CLOSE FIT FOR
THE CROWDS
New York and Chicago Baseball
Parks During Worlds Series will
Accommodate Only a Re-
stricted Number
ASSOCIATED Press

New York, Oct. 1.-If the seating
capacity of the baseball parks in
which play will be staged were not
limited there is no question that new
attendance records would be estab-
lished in the coming World Series be-
tween the Chicago Americans and the
New York Nationals. So keen is the
interest and enthusiasm created by
this intersectional struggle for dia-
mond supremacy between the teams
of the two largest cities of the nation
that under certain conditions it is
likely the figures of 1912 may be sur
passed.
In the coming games the New York
Polo Grounds will seat $4,000 spec
tators, in round numbers, while the
Chicago White Sox park, with due al
lowance for any temporary stands
! that President Comiskey may elect to
erect, will not exceed this paid seat
ing capacity. AS basis of compar-
ison, therefore, the maximum capac-
ity of either park may be placed at
approximately $4,000. Many close
followers of the playin gability of the
two teams involved have reached the
conclusion, that given anything like
and even break in the luck of the
game, the series will go at least six
games before a decision is reached.
