FOUR BANDITS GET $1,000
IN A POOL ROOM HOLD-UP
Robbers Line Up Crowd in Richmond,
Va, Take Valuables and Escape
in an Automobile.

RICHMOND, Va.-Four men en-
tered a billiard room in the heart of
the business district here last night,
robbed the occupants of about 3d.
900 in cash and jewelry valued at
$4,000 and escaped in a high-power-
ed automobile.
The men entered the crowded
room with guns drawn, and while one
stood guard at the door the others
lined up the occupants against the
wall and relieved them of all valua-
bles. AS the billiard room is on the
second floor of the building the rob-
bers were able to operate without
fear of interruption from the out
side.
When they had completed their
work the three men fastened to the
street while the fourth held the
crowd at bay with his revolver. He
backed slowly down stairs while the
others got into the automobile. AS
the machine passed the place the
guard leaped in and the men drove
away. None of the men were masked.

THERE'LL BE NO RADICAL
CHANGE IN WOMEN'S DRESS
At Least That's What Convention of
Women's Clubs Was Told.

No radical departure for women's
dress because of America being in
the war will be taken hurriedly. ac-
cording to M. D. Crawford, art edi-
tor of New York, who addressed the
women on the conservation of cloth
ing section of the fourteenth biennial
convention of the General Fedora
ton of Women's Clubs. The women
appeared to like this attitude. Mr..
Crawford asserted that while there
would still be frills and color schemes
in the garb of women extravaganza
would be prevented, as texture was
to be forfeited.
Helen Louise johnson, of Water
town, N. Y, who also addressed the
conservation section, explained that
her idea of standardization of wo-
mems dress as not meaning one rad
ical unit of dress should be chosen,
but that after women had once
found one becoming style of dress
this should not be changed with ev-
cry varying whim of manufactur-
er.

WILSON OPPOSES
AN INVESTIGATION
DESPITE HIS PROTEST, COMMIT.
TEE VOTED TO PROBE THE
AIRCRAFT SITUATION

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Violent
warfare broke out again today be-
tween President Wilson and Senator
Chamberlain, of Oregon, chairman of
the senate military affairs committee,
over the aircraft situation.
The president, in a letter to Sen
ator Martin, of Virginia, majority
leader of the senate, informed con-
gress that he would regard the adop-
ton of the Chamberlain resolution
as a vote of want of confidence in
the administration.
The Chamberlain resolution would
clothe the military committee with
broad authority to investigate all
army matters, as well as the aircraft
situation.
Senator Martin hastily summoned
administration senators to his office
and read the presidents letter to
them. Lines were Immediately drawn
for bitter fight in the senate over
the resolution. The message was the
subject of heated discussion.
President Wilson's sharp protest
against the resolution failed to block
favorable action.
By vote of 8 to 2 the committee
on audit and control decided to rec
ommend adoption of the resolution
with an amendment combining the
military committees investigating
powers to the nations military activ-
tiles. The amendment would prevent
inquiry into the general conduct of
the war, which, Senator Chamberlain
said, the committee had no intention
of investigating.
Senators Smoot and France, re-
publicans, and Kellar, a democrat,
voted for the resolution, while Sena-
tors Thompson and Jones, strong ad-
ministration men, voted against it.
The indications are that vigorous
fight on the senate floor will ensue.

CHICAGO CLAMPS
ON THE CABARET Lid
SEVERAL HUNDRED ARE PUT
OUT OF BUSINESS, AND JAsS
BANDS ARE SILENCED.

CHICAGO, In.-Chicago's 400
cabarets passed out of existence to-
day when the city's anti-caharet ord
nance went into effect. The Jazz
hands are hushed and the singers 81
lent. The cabaret, which had devel-
oped into a conspicuous feature of
the city's night life, is dead.
As a result of the enforcement of
the new law several thousand of ex-
pert saXaphone players, trick drum
mers, piano players and other must
clans are out of work and hundreds
of singers are idle.
Hotels, cafes and restaurants in
the downtown district which in the
past depended largely on the lure of
cabaret entertainment to draw pat
ronage we're comparatively deserted
The owners of cabarets accepted Che
situation philosophically and viewed
the future with doubt and uncertain
ty.
Persons who wanted to dance were
compelled to patronize temperance
dance halls.
The new law prohibits singing,
dancing and other forms of cabaret
entertainment in any building where
liquor is sold. Hotels, restaurants
and saloons may have music for the
entertainment of their guests by tax
ing out an amusement license and
paying a fee of $500 a year.
Brewers Bring Reform.
Strangely enough the zrewers are
chiefly responsible for the stamping
out of the alleged cabaret evil in
Chicago.
Church organizations and other re-
form bodies have been fighting for
several years to close the cabarets,
but without success. Several months
ago the brewers, to the surprise of
the reform element, took a hand in
the fight by arraying themselves
against the cabaret.
They argued that the cabaret was
detriment to the decent saloon and
was rapidly crystallizing public senti-
ment in favor of a saloonless city.
Then after a series of hearings be-
fore an aldermanic committee the
city council passed the ordinance.

You should promptly heed these warn

backache, irregularity of the urine or the

the dangerous forms of kidney disease,
such as Bright's disease, diabetes or

To overcome these distressing condi,
