oUELLs PANIC WITH PISTOLS
Captain Of Ship Bombed by Zeppelin
Holds Control Of Frightened
Crew.

Stockholm.-The Swedish steamer
Flandria was attacked by Zeppelin
ON its latest trip homeward. The first
bomb which was dropped narrowly
missed the ship. The engines were
stopped and the crew ordered into the
boats. Four more bombs were dropped
dangerously near the vessel. Before
oil those on board had entered the
boats there was panic, and the cap
tain had to use his revolver to enforce
discipline. The ships company, after
remaining for about two hours In the
boats, returned to their vessel. Sew
eral hours later another airship APP
peared and lowered about for time,
but departed without doing any harm.

FOR HOME WORKER
Attractive Hats May Be Made by

ers This Season.

Two charming hats, either of which
might be fashioned by the home mil
liner, are Illustrated here. The larger
of the two hats has brim of velvet
and crown Of soft felt embroidered in
chenille In contrasting c0l0rs. The brim
might be Of black or dark brown and
the crown gray or soft tan, with
fiame-c0lored chenille for the necessary
color contrast. =
The smaller hat, made of black or
navy blue velvet, is an excellent model
to select for wear with one Of the serge
or gaberdine street dresses so fashion
able now. The soft crown is surround
ed by q rolled brim which Is covered
over with jet nail heads.
Nail heads were extensively used as
millinery and dress trimming several
years ago. and they have never been
entirely relegated to oblivion, especial
ly in millinery. Practically every sea-
son some ingenious milliner develops
few models with nail head trimming,
and for the fall and winter Of 1918
they are generously exploited.
Bead and Jet ornaments in a wide
variety are being used this season, and
applique embroidery is also millinery

der is shown made up in velvet and

never has seen before, thgt agriculture

was only a few years ago that the
Providence City Council made the mis-
take of making the rental of the stands

within marketing distance of Provi-
