lima, Once Stronghold Of the Greek Epirus
Copyright By J. W. Muller
BY J. W. MULE r

The Greek Epirus, south of Aba
ata and bordering the lonian sea.
Which is center of critical diplo-
matte and political-military manip-
ulation at present, was ruled once by
Turkish pasha whose true history
is as wonderful as anything in ro-
nance This man, All Tepelenti,
known as the Lion of Jdnind, is the
subject of the novel from ~hich to-
days story is written-"The Last
Days of Janissaries." by Maurus Jo-
kat, the great Hungarian wrtter.
All Tepelenti, pasha of Albania, was
hard beset. All the violence that had
Redeemed his seventy-nine years of life
was rising against him, north, south.
east and west, reincarnated into rebel
lion and revenge. His own wife had
Joined his foes. In Constantinople his
enemies had whispered successfully to
the sultan.
Undsmayed, the old lion awaited
the onset in Janina, that fairy city of
minarets and palaces which dominated
Albania and mirrored its gold and
white loveliness in glass-gre deep
Lake Acheruz.
There was ample reason for his con-
fidence. His citadel, standing on an
isthmus formed by the lake and the
river that flows from 1t, was such
thing as might well defy siege and as
sault. It's secrets We're known to none
but himself, for he had removed the
builders from the earth. Deep bitches,
steep bastiOns, irOn-plated draw
bridges and portals, fringes Of sharp
stakes, hundred cannon, and horde
of devoted soldiers made the castle of
Janina impregnable so long as 1t was
guarded well.
But was 1t guarded we'll? The task
lay on his three sons, Mukhtar Bey.
Sulaiman Bey, and Vely Bey; and Ali
doubted. He had hidden them prepare
for war, each in his own field, and each
had made excuses that the old man ac-
copied with an indulgent smile on his
mouth and fury in his heart. 1t was
Ali knew well that they had planned to
bring their three harems together and
celebrate it in wild revels.
That night he stole out and inspect
ed his fortress. 1t was as he had
feared. The gates were all but I'M
guarded. Slaves and officers sat in
hidden corners, drinking. Music and |
laughter sounded from the harem. An |
army might have rushed In with flying |
banners.
With temper cold as steel Ali
turned to the inner portion of the cita
del and entered the rOse-embowered
house of Mukhtar Bey through secret
entrance known to him alone. 1t led
him to wall whence he could peer
through hidden orifice at his sons
banquet chamber.
The three brothers were surrounded
by beauties far surprising any that the
angels Monkar and Nakir could prom
Use men in the next world. There were
dancers and players. There was for
hidden wine. Ais heart almost stood
still when Makhtar Bey raised his
glass and called aloud on the prophet
to join them and taste of wine and
kisses, challenging him to say that
paradise held damsels lovelier than
theirs.
In the late afternoon Of the next day
Ali commanded the three sons to Join
him at food in the inner keep of the
grim round building known
rs the red tower which looked down
on Lake AcheruZ.

The Hiqh Waistline.

Jenny, Doeuillet. Worth and several
of their colleagues have introduced the
high waistine into afternoon and eve
Gus a change In the silhouette as the
narrowing of the skirt hem. If one
is adopted, the other must be, for the
low, medieval waistline, which is at
the hips, connected with melon
shaped skirt, is too ugly to thinA about.
Whenever skirt has been full be-
low the hips and narrow at the ankles,
it has been high-waisted. This waist
line has been obtained in many ways !;
sometimes the material Is cut to tit
deep liner belt and corded or bound
to its upper edge; again, it Is plated in
small groups at sides and back. Today
the plaitsare more universal than the
plain effect.
The high waistline on evening gowns
has to do with the incoming Of the
First Empire and DirectOire periods.
both of which have been suggested in
several of the costumes that have been
turned out by the French designers
during the last six months. 1t was ex-
pected that some definite move in this
direction would be made at the spring
openings. but, evidently, the designers
have contented themselves with few
touches from the fashions of those two
periods and have let it go at that.
Large revers, u high, turnover collar
Mt the back, long, tight sleeves that
flare over the hand and the high-waist-
ed skirt beneath the short jacket are
features of the Directoire period.
The evening gown with the negligible
bodice, the round decOlletage and the
high waistline, with the skirt that
hangs Imply against the figure are
features taken from the First empire.
The Round DecoIIetags.
1t is quite evident from the unity
shown by the different dressmakers in
Paris that they intend to bring In the
round decolletage of the First and Sec
Ond empires
DOeuillet is one of the designers who

used to be known. This displays the
top Of the shoulders and arms some
what after the 1910 method which be-
came so well known through the EN-
press Eugene, who never failed to dis
play her famous dropping shoulders.
With these bodices there are orna-
mental straps that go across the upper
part of the shoulder. Few evening
gowns have any other kind of decol
etage but the round one. The difficult
line of the Renaissance is not again
attempted.
None of the Paris gowns shows any
especial or striking novelty in fabrics,
Roder has been working hard
1t the production Of silks, serges and
soft Chinese fabrics. There is no one
hing, however, that stands out wildly
rom the rest and proclaims itself as
desirable.

BRICKHOUSE WILL TRY
 TO AVERT \ STRIk E

Little Rock, Nov. 3-State Labor Commissioner Ben D. Brickhouse, up- on the request of Gov. Brough, and as Ia member of the Little Rock city council, upon the request of Mayor Taylor, left yesterday afternoon for Shreveport, La, to use his best of fees in an effort to avert the serious strike of oil and gas workers that is threatened. He will confer with Gov. Pleasant, the operators, and represen- tatives of the labor interests, and is hopeful that he will be able to bring about an adjustment of the troubles.
 In speaking of the threatened coal famine, Mir. Brickhouse made the fol- lowing statement:
 "I can see no cause for alarm over the coal situation. Should an actual shortage in supply occur, the railroads will be to blame for it. If the rail roads would furnish the necessary cars for the transportation of the coal, there would be enough to supply all our needs. The coal miners of Arkansas are all at peace, and perfect harmony prevails among the miners and the operators. There is no trou- ble anywhere among them on account of labor, but 1 know that there is ire quently great deal of delay on ac- count of a shortage of cars"

OFFICIALS OPTIMISTIC
 OVER WAR OUTLOOK
Russia's Decision to Temporar- lily Cease Major Operations, Brings Optimistic Reaction Italian Situation Improves.
United Press Special.

United Press Special.
 Washington, Nov. 3.-Russia's de- cision to place the war burden upon the shoulders of the allies, and to tenn porarily cease major military opera tions, brought optimistic reaction from this government today.
 The German retirement on the Aisne front and the stiff Italian stand against the Austro- German rush along the Tagliamento river in Northern Italy, lent further buoyancy to the general military outlook here.
 The administration is firm in the belief that Russia, after a winter de- voted to recognizing, unifying and stabilizing the government and mili- tary machinery, will resume her place in active military operations with even greater effectiveness than at any time since the war began.
