Dress In London.

Something might be said of the
changes that three years of war have
brought about in our clothes. Evening
dress is not abolished, but 1t Is becom-
ing, much less customary in theaters
and restaurants. and people coming
up to London who used To bring eve
ming clothes with them no longer do
so. Stiff white collars are disappear
ing. and the soft collar is worn by al
classes. The democratic process hSd
already set in ut the house of com
mons. One remembers the shock that
Mr.. Keir Hardie's cloth cap created on
it's first appearance there, but 1t has
advanced Immensely since the war be-
gan. Frock coats are in a small and
die-hard minority. Spats are on their
last legs. Top hats survive miraculous
ly, it might seem, until one remembers
their enduring qualities, so that their
persistence is only form Of war
economy after all.

UNCOVER RICHES IN RUSSIA
Development Of Mineral Deposits, Re-
tarded by Autoeracy, Now Likely
to Be Rapid.

As In everything else. the old re-
gime of Russia had its strangle hold
on the gold industry. Siberia and the
Ural could be considered the classical
parts of the world where deposits Of
precious minerals abound and under
free and progressive government
they could easily lead all the other
parts of the world, says the Russian
American Journal of Commerce. The
Russian press is full Of news items
chronicling new discoveries Of gold
and platinum deposits. as well as
other rare metals.
So from Krasnoyarsk, in Siberia,
came the news that In the northern
end southern Enisey mountain dis
tricts the gold seekers have lately
washed gold to the amount of about
$3.50 pounds. From the Lena, well
known as a gold-bearing river, comes
the word that new rich gold and plati-
mum deposits were discovered on her
tributaries, Willy and also Markha.
With the laying of the tracks of the
Amur railroad there Is almost con-
tinuous procession of discoveries Of
new deposits of precious metals, espe-
cially on the Rivers Burea and Khara !;
all the deposits are not far from the
new laid tracks and offer all the OPP
portunities for successful develop
ment of the newly discovered deposits.

heard. In this case. as in the others,
the local and district boards rehear

cided in favor OF exemption the mill

The whole plan leaves the local and
district boards supreme as before. No
military or civil authority is placed
over them. They merely have clear
method OF holding new trial or a
new hearing in any deserving case. 1t

will be Just to all claimants.

CAMP CUSTER NOTES

There must have been fear in the
minds of someone that enlisted men
would begin growing foodstuffs on the
farms Of camp. for an order has been
posted forbidding the raising OF crops
or fruit by privates.
Neat desk trays for holding papers,
made of building board, wood and
tacks. are appearing in offices and over
camp. Usually these are made of wire,
but the building board fad came in
and now every regiment is making its
own.
Milwaukee sent two men in its last
contingent who had been rejected
both by the physicians of their local
They had to be turned back third
time by the army, with their ambitions
to serve still unfulflled.
II is proposed to build substantial
jail in camp to care for civilian law
breakers.
When all of the good things in the
line OF lectures, concerts and enter
tainments generally haze materialized
there will be little occasion for the
men to go TO town.

the court is based on the general pro-
