NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. CAlCUlA1oRS TRAINED

The calculators trained by Mr.. Noel Kin
naman have made a wonderful success and
are meeting the demands of present bust
ness conditions in all Offices. The advent
Of the adding calculating machine has
brought out the necessity for the trained
calculator, and to meet this demand Mr..
Kinnaman started training young ladies ror
this work eight years ago. Several years
previous he organized the Chicago Calcu-
lating Company, expert calculators, who
handle the inventory, payrolls. invoices,
specifications. etc.. etc, in fact, anything
that can be figured for over 1000 Chicago
frms.) His training methods are those Of

BY way of reducing the high cost Of
living, silk appears to be the chosen
fabric for summer suits, rather than
wooden fabrics. The Industrious silk
worm, aided and abetted by other
things known to manufacturers, have
made silks cheaper In comparison with
woolens than they used to be. Silk
Jersey, pOplin and taffeta are cool and
elegant substitutes for light wOOlens,
and besides these there are the new
weaves, made especially for summer
wear, and pongee to strengthen the
cause of silk.
A beige-cOlored suit Of silk pOplin
shown In the illustration measures up
to the highest standard In new styles.
1t has wide cape collar, of the epau-
lette variety, and the inevitable pock-
cts that appear on all well-regulated
models. The collar is extended into
revers ut the front of the coat and there
Is an overcollar of printed silk, the
same silk being used to line the fiaring
cuffs. Buttons are incOnspicuous on

TALL LAMP USEFUL
Floor Light Also Adds to Rooms
AttractiveneSS.
Plain Shades Are In Much Better Taste
Than Those Which Are Beruffled
and Flower Betrimmed.

There are several reasons why floor
lamps have become as popular as they
have, and good Zones, too. To begin
with, they fill need for certain kinds
of lighting; they are unsurpassed for
use at the piano, or for any purpose
which requires an elevated light. Often,
too. the floor lamp may be made use of
I'm the corner of u room, at the side of
an easy chair, where q table to hold
q table lamp would be an utter impos-
sibility. This Is one of the most note
worthy uses for the lamp with the tall
and slender standard; 1t can be used
so many places. where the ordinary
table and lamp cannot. 1t may also
give light for two or three to work or
read by. without it also being neces-
sary to crowd up to a table, each per-
son holding the work or book so that
the light will fall on it. And in the
room where mild but general light is
required the floor lamp provides 1t ade-
Quately and artistically.
The artistic aspect of the floor lamp
is one of its chief delights, however.
For it has helped to transform many
rooms. Such u lamp standing In just

ALL LACE IS MODISH NOW
In Nearly All Cases II Is Dyed to
Match the Color OF the Fabric
With Which II 10 Used.

Old lace Is getting its innings again.
For time 1t only appeared on we'd
ding things or on dOwagers' velvet
gowns, but now many and lovely are
the new frOcks which have a bit Of
antique lace tucked on somewhere,
and what Is more these frOcks are so
made that they can boast Of smart
ness as well as valuable lace-a COM
binatiOn before now that has been
rarely achieved.
A smart New York woman utilizes
lace banding for shoulder straps and
shows off Its exquisite workmanship
to advantage by having the gown
palest blue charmeuse-mnde with ex-
ceeding simplicity. In fact lace of all
description Is mOdish these days,
though 1t Is rarely seen in contrast
with the material of the dress, says
Harper's Bazaar. While black lace
may be effectively used on white
frOcks. In nearly every other instance
the lace is dyed to match the fabric
with which 1t is used. Particularly
noticeable is dyed filet on gray gowns,
while navy lace Is charming, especial
ly so If II Is used with blue chiffon
printed in gay designs.
A very interesting new trimming Ia
straw Just the ordinary kind that is
used for handmade hats, though, of
course, the texture of the straw makes
all the difference In the world, as the
rough and bumpy Is so very much
smarter than the smooth and satiny.
II Is put on In bands In exactly the
same manner as you would braid.
Even straw buttons are seen now and
then.

How to Secure and Fit Up a Red Cross Workroom

After an auxiliary of the Red Cross
has been formed and has determined
upon the specific work which 1t will
do, Il place of meeting must be secured.
A light room will be needed where
work tables will accommodate the
women who volunteer to do the work
In hand. In many cities and towns
business men donate vacant rooms In
commercial buildings for this purpose.
In all the large department stores In
the country. floor space has been al
lotted to this work and placards, post
cd throughout the stores, invite shop
pers to give an hour or so of their
time to Red Cross work.
The workrOoms Of millinery shops
are turned over to Red Cross workers
In the evening. I'm some of the smaller
cities and towns. 1t Is best to secure
q vacant room in store building or
space In a store, to be used solely for
Red Cross work. Club women and
members of various women's organi-
cations, church societies, ETC., can be
allotted definite time during each
week, to meet In Il body and work to-
gether, In these rooms.
When q room has been secured 1t
must he fitted with work tables and
chairs. Plain wooden chairs and long
tables are best and the tables are to
be covered with oilcloth II possible, SO
that they can be easily kept clean.
Nails along the walls, or elsewhere,
will be needed in which big overall
aprons are to be hung. Above each
nail small ticket pasted to the wall
carries the name of the owner of the
apron. or string ticket may be used
on the apron. A few extra aprons

this suit and are covered with the silk.
The skirt Is plain. A pretty costume
blouse of crepe worn with suit of
this kind, makes up formal suit
toilette for summer afternoon or eve
ming semidress affairs.
The street suit of serge, with edges
bound with silk braid, Is noticeable
for clever and original management of
the belt and the introduction of fine
plaits in the skirt. The best Is an eX-
tension of the side bodies, cut with
rounded ends and decorated with bone
buttons. A tab at each side of the
coat Stimulates pocket.
The skirt hangs straight In approved
slim lines. 1t has panel ut the back
and front, with side plaits at each
side. They are pressed very fiat, but
provide comfortable width for walk
ing.

ers who may not be able to come regu-
larry, but drop I'm ut odd times to give
an hour or so to the work. Two or
three women can share an apron
among them, If each has a definite time
set aside for using 1t.
A place for storing the supplies
made and facilities for packing them
in boxes when they are to be shipped
away. must be provided. And an i'm
pOrtant item not to be overlooked, Is
place for washing the hands /; for this
must be done, without fail, as u pre-
liminary to any work done for the
Red Cross. Small towels, not larger
than small table napkin are used for
drying the hands. Members Of the
auxiliary can make and donate these,
using old linen for the purpose.
II Is n good idea, when room has
been secured and fitted up. to pay
some woman small weekly fee to
keep 1t clean and orderly. She will
be expected to see that 1t Is swept
and busted and that the tables are
washed when necessary.
Having secured room and its 1T
tings. and someone to keep 1t in or
der. the women of new auxiliary are
ready to go to work. Military hospi-
tails are using and will use enormous
quantities of surgical dressings and
hospital supplies and these are the
things that women who are anxious to
be of patriotic service to the govern
ment can make. Directions for going
about this work will be given in the
next article.

Acquittal in Dunbar Case

The Dunbar case was submitted to
the jury late Saturday afternoon and
a verdict of acquital was brought in
at about nine o'clock the same even
ing. Dunbar was represented by Sal
ter & Robins.
This was defendants second trial,
he having previously been acquitted
on charge of having obtained $1,000
by false pretense. A. G. Crane, presi-
dent of the Interstate Life Insurance
Company, the alleged accomplice of
Dunbar, was convicted ON this charge
and sentenced to a term of from one
to ten years in the penitentiary.
Yesterday afternoon, upon motion
of District Attorney Powell, all the
remaining indictments against both
Crane and Dunbar were dismissed by
Judge Ducker.
The status of the Interstate Life
Insurance Company of Nevada is ap-
parently somewhat uncertain. Al
though it has no president, Crane
having been deposed. it has board
of directors, who will probably meet
in the near future and take some
action. 1t is claimed that all the
actual cash paid in for stock mas
been spent, and in addition an indebt-
edness of two thousand dollars or
more has been incurred. $1,000 OF

new ORE SHOOT
AT ROCHESTER MINE


LOVELOCK, March 24.-The stope
in Four-J block on the 4OO-foot level
of the Rochester Mines Company s
estate has now developed an ore body
which is 25 feet in width. This body
of ore lies in the hanging wall, or to
the west of the ore removed by the
Four-J leasers, and is one of the larg-
est bodies of ore yet encountered IN
the Rochester Mines Company's prop
erty.
The ore body recently opened up
on the 650-foot level continues to
maintain its values and width of Ia
feet. Owing to the severe weather
which prevailed during the past week
there has been serious delay in the
transportation of some of the tram
way material. The tramway is prac-
tically completed. The large crusher
which is to be installed at the mouth
of the Friedman tunnel, or at the
loading terminal of the tramway, will
be installed this week and, when COM
pleted, the tramway will be put in
operation.
Rochester Combined Mines Company
The construction work on the Com
bined property has also been ham
pered this week on account of the
delay in the delivery of material and
supplies, due to the bad weather and
the threatened railroad strike; but
the development work has progressed
as usual.
The main feature of this week S
work was the finding of the main VEN
cut in the Shepherd No. l tunnel on
the south side of the hill a distance
of more than 200 feet from the Shep-
opened up ON the Link claim, and
from the present amount of work ac-
complished indications are that the
vein will be as wide at that point as
it was at the Shepherd No. l tunnel.
A tunnel has been started to tap this
portion of the vein at depth.
A crosscut in the Shepherd No. ]
tunnel and the drift from the cross
cut continue in ore. The drift is now
in Sc feet and the face is still in excel
lent ore, the values continuing about
the same as last week.
Seven Troughs Coalition
The main drift from the 1S00-foot
level is now in los feet. Work in the
upraise at the 100-foot point has been
started. The crosscut from the sta
ton on the 1S00-foot level has been
advanced 80 feet.
Seven Troughs Mining Company
A leaser who is working on this
company's property extracted 300
pounds of highgrade or picture rock
the fore part of this week on the 205-
foot level. or 500 feet directly above
the present workings of the company
which would indicate and assure us
that we have an ore shoot of 100 feet
in length and backs of 500 feet. Al
the present time there has been ex-
tracted approximately 700 tons of mill
ore from this ore shoot on the ZOO
foot level which will asay $40 per ton
The winze from the 700-foot level is
down 81 feet and still continuing or
the hanging wall. AS soon as this
winze reaches depth of 100 fee
work will be started to crosscut an(
raise on the vein.
