1t is not bad idea to put off buying
a practical spring and summer coat
which nearly every woman needs-un-
til spring has really come to stay. BY
the middle of May styles are establish
ed and the latest and last efforts of the
designers have appeared and had their
try-outs. Perhaps nothing more beau
tiful than the first models will follow
them over the horizon of fashion, but
one will have the satisfaction of hav-
ing seen the whole parade before max
ing a choice.
Long capes, long coats and coats
with detachable capes made their entry
together this season. With its ad-
vance capes have grown in popularity.
Coats have appeared in the heavier
weaves of silk, but the soft elastic light
weight wool coatings are unrivaled for
beauty in interesting shades Of beaver,
rose, blue, green and gold.
Two of these unmussable and envel-
oping coats as pictured above, are ex-
amples of good style in the summer
utility coat. One would have to be
provided with a pocket dictionary to
call all the new names that are given
to varieties of familiar weaves of cloth,
but there is one that merits remem-

RECORD BELONGS TO SIRIUS
Small Vessel Was the First to Cross
the Atlantic Wholly Under Its
Own Steam.

This spring marks the eightieth an
niversary Of an important event in
modern history-the voyage from Cork
to New York of the Sirius, the first
vessel to cross the Atlantic wholly un-
der its own steam. All that remains
of that stanch little craft is number
of brass paper-weights made from the
metal work after it was wrecked in
Ballycotton bay in 1S47. Captain Rob-
erts, commander of the 412-ton Sirius
on its maiden trip, was later trans
ferred to the President, which went
down with all on board. Thus both
the Sirius and her master met with q
tragic end.
The Sirius made the voyage from
Cork in 10 days, reaching New York
only a few hours before the Great
Western, another steamship which
had sailed from Bristol. The latter
made the best time, crossing the
ocean in Is days. The Sirius had a
passenger list of seven on it's initial
voyage, the youngest of whom was
Vincent e. Ransome, then four years
old, who was reported living a few
years ago in Wiltshire, England,
where he was long the rector Of a
parish church.
The Sirius was q schooner-rigged
ship and was 17S feet over all, with
a beam Of 25 feet and depth Of 18
feet.

There are bathing suits-and bath
ing suits-but they are as varied as
the shells of the sea. Some Of them
are intended for the girl who sticks to
the beach, but lends countenance to
the sport Of swimming by wearing
stunning bathing cOstume-which may
never be wet. Others are pretty and
more or less practical affairs of silk,
that are all right for the usual splash
ing about and beach play. And then
there are the real, practical swim
ming suits for the girl who swims
and demands the right kind Of gar
ment for the sport.
A real and successful bathing suit
must be sturdy and equal to strenu-
GUS wear. 1t must set well and look
well when it is wet as well as when
it is dry. 1t must insure perfect
freedom of the limbs and be dyed
with colOrs that know no such words
as ''run" or "fade." With all these
sterling, common-sense qualities it will
remain forever unhonored and unsung
If it is not good looking to start with.
Many of this seasons suits are
sleeveless, and others have short
band or puffed sleeves. A fascinat-
ing affair Of black satin is shaped like
chemise, with narrow bands set into

ANGRY AT BEING DISTURBED
Old Gentleman Vastly More Annoyed
at Constable Than He Was at Hun
Air Raiders.

"He wasn't half angry" said a con-
stable to me, smiling reminiscently as
he cast his eye over what remained
mostly top story only-of an old-fash-
ioned house which had suffered in a
recent air raid. "You should have
heard his language"
Curious thing" said, "the top floor
doesn't appear to be touched"
eyes, that's where he was," said the
constable. "Of course, we thought he
was a casualty. We cleared away the
rubbish, and somehow or other got up
to his rooms with an ambulance and
the doctor. The door was closed, so we
started prying 1t open. That's when
the fun started.
"The door was flung open, and there
stood the old gentleman with a big
book in his hands, his specs on, and
in a proper temper. I just caught a
glimpse of a cosy armchair drawn up
to a blazing fire.
"'What the - does this meanr
he says. Haven't I been disturbed
enough this evening? Get out Of It,
all of you And without troubling to
shut his door, he went back and sat
down with his book beside the fire,
muttering most awful. It gave me
the biggest shock Of the raid."-Lon-

Commend. Sailor. Bravery.

For gallantry in rescuing from
drowning a lad eight years of age Sec
retary Daniels has commended Arthur
Otto Radcliffe, a seaman of the United
States navy. Alongside Of the United
States steamship Wadsworth, on which
the sailor was stationed, lay a tug. A
small boy played about the deck with
no thought Of danger. Suddenly he
fell overheard. Before the warning
came the child had foated seventy-f1ve
yards or more from the tug and ship.
Then Radcliffe came into action. Jump
Ing into the water, he swan to the boy
and brought him to safety. Radcliffe
enlisted in the navy in 1915. at Des
Moines, Iowa.

gathered into bands that fasten about
the legs just above the knees. 1t is
wide enough to give the swimmer
plenty Of freedom. Stockings that do
not reach to the knees and low Slip
pers fastened with a single strap are
an innovation in the styles. The
knees are uncovered. With black
satin bathing garment, like that just
described. white stockings, barred with
black, and black slippers are to be
worn. A cap with band Of white
rubberized cloth and soft black
crown provides the proper headwear.
The two swimming suits shown in
the picture are entirely practical, and
will stand the rigid tests of the hab-
itual swimmer. They are lightweight
wool in an elastic weave. The suit at
the left is shaped to set very close to
the figure. 1t is in navy blue with
navy and white striped border. The
suit at the right is in gray and white
bordered with white band having
pin stripe. The upper garment hangs
straight from the shoulders and is
given it's shapeliness by white sash
of woven material like the suit.

WAR BEGAN IN APRIL, 1918
huge War Credit Was In That Year
Voted In Germany and Supported
by Socialists.

When did the war begin? April,
1913; not August, 1914, as the press
always has 1t, writes Charles Edward
Russell in Harper's. The real declara-
tion of war was made by the German
reichstag when 1t struck observing
Europe dumb and chill by passing, an
extraordinary war credit Of $25OO0O,-
900; and to that act Of belligerency in
time of profound peace the socialists
in the reichstag gave practically their
support.
All men in the world accustomed to
make upon the days news an intelli-
gent diagnosis must have gasped and
stared at this portent. Unless Ger
many deliberately planned now to
bring down upon mankind the war her
armament had silently threatened these
many years, there was no good reason
for this perilous saber rattling; cer-
tainly none appeared in the state Of
Europe. Yet the socialists seemed to
be for it; that was the Incompetent
sible fact.
August Bebel, then still active. was
the ablest and most famous Of their
leaders, and criticism from many lands
seemed to goad him into defense.
1t was of a nature to chill the last
hope in any friend Of peace. Two
reasons he gave for the reichstag's
actions One was that President Poin-
care of France, who had been but new
ly elected, was a warlike and danger
GUS man, and no one could tell to what
lengths he might go. The other was
that in the Balkan wars the Turks,
taught by German officers. had been
beaten by the Serbians, taught by
French.
The judicious might grieve indeed
when they came upon such an offering
from such source, and anybody able
to read might see that war was close
at hand.

and appears in the coat at the right.
The coat at the left is in a firmer and
smoother weave and has surface re-
sembling broadcloth.
Fashion demands coats and capes
that reach almost or quite to the bot
tom of the dress with collars that are
high at the back and may be turned
up to muffie up the throat. Nearly all
of them are protected and prettily fin
ished with over-collars of georgette
crepe.
Some of the long capes are far from
simple. Very dark blue is favored for
them and sometimes they continue to
be made up with a vest and wide CIR
die in contrasting color-dark rose
for one-and it is a very fine combina-
tion. Occasionally a long cape is fin
ished with deep silk fringe.

America is Revising
Her Appreciation of
Chinese Character

Recently international
developments have riveted
attention on China. And
new and interesting side
lights are being thrown on
Chinese character and trust
Worthiness.
It has long been imagined
by the American people as
a whole that the Chinaman
is a most dangerous and un-
moral enemy to white socie-
ty. This is partly the result
of the natural fear of the
Unknown, and partly the re-
suit of deliberate misrepre-
sentation of one of the most
cultured and honorable
races of the world.
The Chinaman obtained
his reputation in America
through those early melo-
dramatic ten, twenty, thirty
dramas, which pictured
opium rings, abduction OF
beautiful white women,
dives and desperate conspl-
racies and plots. Cases like
the murder of General Sleg-
els daughter were taken full
advantage of by the Yellow
Press though there are thous
ands of murders by white
men.
AS a matter of fact the
Chinese have been making
desperate efforts to stamp II
out the opium traffic. The
japanese banks employ
Chinese exclusively. CHI
nese hold all positions OF
trust in japanese mercantile
institutions, and the coast
has a marked liking for
the Chinaman.
In Triangle's amazing and
interesting story of Western
life, "Little Red Decides"
which will be shown at the
Nogales Theatre on Monday,
June 8, there is picturized
the wonderful live and
affection of a Chinese
cook, DuckSing, for a little
white orphaned boy. So
deep is Duck Sings affec-
ton for Little Red that he
kidnaps him from the church
people of Casitas to have the
child back again.

WANTS RELIEF ON DEBT ON
MILLION DOLLAR COURTHOUSE

Hudspeth county has communicated
in an informal way TO the commits
sioners OF El Paso county a request
that the new county be relieved Of
its share of the courthouse indebted
ness The building, contracted for
and almost completed before Huds-
peth county was carved out of FL
Paso, cost nearly $1,000, 600 and Huds-
peth county must bear its proportion
OF this cost, is was said.
Its position is that il can never
derive any benefit from the building
and therefore. as a matter Of equity,
should be relieved of helping to pay
for it.
County judge E. B. McClintock said
Tuesday that the commissioners
would take no action on this request
until they are advised as to the
wishes Of the people Of FL Faso
