President and Vice Presi- dent Will Make Speeches in Support of the
 Campaign

Washington, April 5.The opening of America's third big campaign for popular war cred its ,on the anniversary of the declaration of war, promises to resemble Independence Day as an occasion for celebrations.
 Reports tonight to Headquarters of the third Liberty Loan told of enthu- siastic preparations for parades and bonfires, public meetings and loyalty speeches to drive home appeals for subscriptions to government bonds. In many states 1t is q legal holiday and in scores of cities business is to be suspended part of tho day to assist the celebration.
 Indications tonight were that only a small part of the $3.00o,ooo,oo0 war credit would be subscribed tomorrow: loan organizations probably would be too busy promoting spectacular fea- lures to actually take in subscriptions and that the real soliciting would start Monday. Small towns promise to be notable exceptions. however. for many of these are anxious to fill their en- tire quota of subscriptions within a few hours after o'clock, the official opening time, and thereby win for their communities the third Liberty Loan honor flag.
 PRESIDENT TO SPEAK

 Prevent Lawlessness

Washington. April 5.-AI other busi- ness was laid aside by the Senate tO- day for Recommendations of disloyaIty, sc- ditfon. German spies and the I. w. w.. and discussion of how the espionage net should be extended so as to curb these evils and avoid mob law, with out abridEing the fundamental libcr- ties of American citizens.
 While the Senate debated the pending sedition bill, carrying severe penalties for disloyal utterances and attempts to obstruct the draft or Liberty Loans. President Wilson and the cabinet gave attention to reports of the lynching of Robert Praeger, a German. at Collins vile, Ill, last night. Members of the cabinet said afterward the deplorable incident emphasized the necessity for immediate legislation that would enable the government to deal with disloyalty and enemy agitation so that the people would not be tempted to take the law into their own hands.
 REED BLOCKS VOTE
 Administration leaders in the Senate hope to pass the sedition bill tomorrow, the anniversary of Americas entrance into the war. An agreement for a vote tomorrow. sought by Senator Overman of North Carolina in charge of the measure. was blocked by Senator Reed of Missouri The Missouri senator said he was in sympathy with the general purposes of the legislation. but thought 1t. should not be hastily considered When Senator Overman stated that the Attorney General had urged passage of the bill today because it's provisions would be needed during the Liberty Loan campaign. Senator Reed said that was utter nonsense
 EFFORTS TO AMEND
 Several efforts to widen the. scope of the bill were made today, though there were criticisms that its prohibitions against disloyal and seditious utterances are already too broad. Senator Lodge of Massachusetts introduced an amend ment prohibiting transmission through the mails of any matter printed in the German language, and Senator Lewis of Illinois offered one which would forfeit the citizenship and property of persons adjudged Sdisloyal by jury.

1t has become popular to economlze
or, at least, to persuade ourselves
that we are economizing. You cannot
make observation of the new modes
without coming to the conclusion that
designers have taken this spirit of
the times into consideration and that
1t has brought grist to their mills.
They have made combinations of mate
rials and combinations of garments al
most unheard of before. These COM
'binations are novel and unusual-and
alluring.
In tailored suits, for example, we
have wool fabrics combined with silk
or cotton. Since wool must be con-
served and life is not worth living
without a tunic skirt, the tailor pro-

things in skirts. The result is so
fetching that many an unsuspecting
tailored skirt of wool is destined to find
itself Joined for life to tunic of geor-
gette or some other silk. Paris goes
even farther and sponsors union of
serge and organdle in dresses that are
too chic to need excuse for being IL
logical.
Among these aspirants for the ia
vor of the economically inclined there
appears the two-in-one dress. A fine
example of this design is shown in the
picture and is made of silk in two gar
ments. 1t is n suit as pictured, with
an unusually graceful coat. When the
coat is removed pretty, simple eve
ming dress is disclosed-hence the
"two-in-one" title. There are several
lovely new silks in highly lustrous
and somewhat heavy weaves, in which
two-in-one dress will play its ver-
satile part and never become tire
some.

Facts About Prolific Fish.

The cod is estimated to yield 4,0O0,-
900 eggs each season. AS many as
eight, nine, and even nine and half
million eggs have been found in the
roe of single cod. An eel was caught
in Scotland some years ago which was
30 inches long and weighed about two
pounds. The ovary was about II
inches long as it lay in the fish, but
when opened out it was nearly 30
inches In length, and it was calculated
that this contained upward of 10000
600 eggs, rivallng, If not SURPRISING,

Trees and Lightning.

There is strange superstition rel
ative to the liability of certain trees
being struck by lightning. All kinds of
ideas have been advanced along these
lines. The ancient Romans believed
that the mulberry, laurel, peach, larch
and box trees were lightning proof.
Not a few foresters of modern times
are of the opinion that certain trees are
more or less liable to destruction by
lightning.
