FUR CAPES ARE TO BE WORN
Will Be Very Deep and Rather Wide
With Little Vest Effect as a
Novel Feature.

And now come the new fur models
According to all prognostications we
are to wear fur capes in place of the
fur scarfs and the cape itself is to be
very deep. rather wide and to include
little vest effect as a part of it's
novel makeup.
The fur maybe kolinsky, Hudson bay
sable, mink, muskrat, moleskin or err
mine. In the estimation of several of
the furriers it is to be a brown season,
but others declare gray furs will be in
good evidence, while for those who can
afford it white will be added to either
the brown or the gray.
One of the new capes, for instance,
iG made of spotless ermine and is lined
with white satin yelled with black
chiffon. The cape hangs in soft folds
from shoulder to several inches below
the elbow and it is slashed on either
side of the arm so that when the lat
ter is in motion there is exposed the
vest feature.
This last is belted to the figure, the
belt being of the fur finished with a
large tortoise-shell buckle. The cape
has fiat revers somewhat reminiscent
Of the directoire modes, and these are
completed by fat collar of Hudson
sable, which may be turned upward to
envelope the throat in case Of severe
weather.

ally Washed in Soapsuds.

To remove rust from flatirons, rub
the spots with emery paper, and if
not successful then cover the spots
with sweet oil and powdered quick
lime, allowing this to remain on for
several days.
Sometimes clothes that have been
painstakingly laundered in the early
stages are married, if not quite ruined,
because the flatirons are in an unclean
condition.
A good way to clean irons is to
scour them with finely sifted coal
ashes, and occasionally to wash them
in strong soapsuds. When thoroughly
cleaned rub with sweet oil and stand
aside in dry place for several days.

SPANISH SAILOR HERE AGAIN
Lifted 5rim May Be Edged With Beads
or There May Be a Flat Fringe
of Ostrich.

We see once more the Spanish sailor,
which provides an excellent canvas for
beautiful ornamental ideas, says an
exchange. The lifted brim may be
edged with beads, or there may be laid
along the under surface a flat fringe of
ostrich. The Breton shape, while not
new, is good enough to continue little
longer. Lanvin features the Breton,
and one Of her best models is exc
cuted on these lines, the material be-
ing hatter's plush in beige color. The
brim carries a small fluting of beige
colored faille, and high at the front is
placed wheel composed of alternat-
ing stripes Of faille and plush. All
fabric hats appear to be more popu-
lar than felts. Velours sailors are ex-
cellent style, and their one bad quail
1ty, which is that of keeping the head
too warm, is overcome now by the use
of ventilating holes, such as are used
In mems hats.
In the matter of color, we find that
teal and peacock blue are among the
best shades, with munitiOn gray q
worthy follower. This new gray tone
shades into blue, and is a luscious
warm color for winter, being partieu-
larly effective when worn with furs,
particularly gray cony and raccoon,
both of which, it is predicted, will have
wide popularity.
There. are plenty of new ornaments
coming from the other side, among
them long jet bugles, gelatined motifs,
fiorette trims composed of satin and
velvet. chenille embroidery, Chinese

accused men, and then succeeded in
having confessions read into the evil
dence that admitted the killing. Both
Sinnisiak and Ulukusk made state
ments after their preliminary hear
ing in the Arctic Circle, stating they
had taken the Oblates' lives, but re-
iterating the deed was done under
pressure of extreme fear occasioned
by the fact that the priests forced
them at the point of a rifle to drag
their sleds through binding snow
storm.
The defense pleaded self-defense
on the grounds that the natives have
dread of firearms, and to them the
act of pointing gun is threat of
death. Counsel for the defense ar
gued that reasonable fear on the
part OF the prisoners that they were
about to be killed or reasonable APP
prehension of violence was justifable
homicide, and his clients were enti-
tied to acquittal on the grounds of
self-defense. Chief Justice Harvey
did not agree with this statement,
saying the law of self-defense, as
interpreted by Canadian law, applies
only in cases of immediate danger.
The presiding judge charged direct
ly against the prisoners and for
murder verdict. However, he agreed

The experts are urging women to
use silk instead of cotton and wool.
There is bound to be a shortage in
both the latter fabrics. In some
places it is difficult to get wooden jer-
sey skirts and suits. Silk stockings
will replace cotton ones, for every frac-
ton of pound of cotton is needed by
the warning countries. Wool is needed
for uniforms; therefore, women will
have TO wear silk. What was once ex-
travagance will now be economy and
patriotism. 1t may be, however, that
the government will forestall this by
using uD the silk for its airplanes.

ment at big expense to defend the
prisoner, argued for acquittal on the
grounds that the very fact the priests
pointed rifles at the Eskimos consti-
tcted self-defense. Primitive men
know no right or wrong, and were
only doing what the Iroquois Indians
did in the early days when fighting
the inroads of the white men.
That the prisoner was subject to
the law was the statement of the
chief justice, who said because a
man does not know he is doing
wrong is no reason why he should
not be punished. Punishment of
crime varies according to the circum-
stances, but the guilt is the same.
However, before asking the jury to
retire his lordship assured them that
in his opinion it would be a crime to
visit the death penalty upon these
Eskimos, and in event of a guilty"
verdict being arrived at he was sure
the sentence would be committed.
Jury Out an Hour.
The jury spent only one hour in
deliberation and returned a mot
guilty" verdict, which cleared one Es-
kimo, Sinnisiak, of the charge of
numbering Father Rouviere. The sec
ond trial, which was to take place
three days later, when Ulukusk was
to be charged with killing Father La
Roux, was looked upon as a mere
matter of form, for with practically
the same evidence to be offered it
was thought any Edmonton jury
would follow the procedure of the
first trial and acquit.
C. C. McCaul on the following
Monday appeared before the chief
justice and asked for a change of
venue to Calgary, 200 miles south of
the capital city of Alberta, on the
grounds that religious prejudice had
been aroused in Edmonton and it was
impossible to obtain a true verdict
from the jurymen impaneled.
Despite the protestations of the
prisoners counsel, ]. E. Wallbridge,
K. c., the crowns petition was grant
ed and the venue of the trial chang
ed to Calgary.
AS in Edmonton, the trial created
intense interest, and every session
saw the court room crowded to the
doors, while curious crowds waited
in the corridors just to get a look
at the Eskimos.
Make Plea of Fear.
Although efforts were made by
both crown and defense to speed
up the trial nearly three days were
consumed before verdict was arriv-
ed at. The crown first presented cir
cumstantial evidence to the effect
that the deceased missionaries had
met their death at the hands of the

Finally, under a pretext, Sinnisiak

him in the back. The wounded priest

the natives hacked him terribly with

Revert to Old Custom.
The Eskimos then reverted to their
old customs and proceeded to eat
pieces of the dead mems livers, hop
ing in this way to keep the dead men
from rising and spirits from haunting
the slayers. This is only one of the
many Eskimo superstitions.
