Chicago Grain.

Chicago. June 14-Attention to unpromising aspects of the crop out look did much today to bring about fresh upturns in the value of corn. The market closed firm 3-S to I IS cent net higher, with July 173 IA to 173 1-2 and Sept. 166 3-S to 166 1-2. Oats finished IS off to like advance and provisions varying from 40 cents decline to rise of 20 cents.
 Belief appeared widespread among corn traders that the crop situation as whole was distinctly less hopeful than had recently been expected. With a consequent big volume of buy ing orders coming into the pit through commission houses and with receipts here dWindling, it seemed impossible to check bullish sentiment At times profit taking sales became heavy and the market weakened temporarily but in evedy case quickly rallies en- sued. Eagerness to buy received ad- dcd impetus from continued sttep as- cent of quotations on hogs.
 Dealing in oats were mainly of a local character.
 After reaching a new high price reord for lard, the provision market showed lack of support.

LOUISIANA GIRLS
  RESENT BAN ON 'SH|MMY' DANCE
War Ensues in Baton Rouge from Deans Order to
 Students.

Baton Rouge, La.-"Thou salt not shimmy!" says Dean Tucker head of the woman's department of the Louisiana State university, neither shalt thou appear in public scantily less gown, nor the hiaphanous lin- gerie!"
 Well wear what we please! We'll dance as we like!" say the girls of Baton Rouge.
 So there you are.
 Troubles of months standing have culm;nated in the university in ser. ies of events by which even the hair clipping of previous freshies seems to fade into insignificance. Guess Who Threw Eggs. An outburst of anger against the dean came to head when eggs were thrown at her through an open win dow of the pavilion while she was acting as official chaperone" at a dance. Some of the eggs went home. Some hit others. The eggers escapedI Nor is this all. Signs appeared ov- erni2ht on the walls of the university suggesting that the dean be Geported. The terms were not those of polite society.
 But the most sensational souvenir which Dean Tucker exhibits as a re- suit of the shimmy war is bomb which hurtled through the plate glass of her front door. This bomb was not of the explosive kind, but it carried its meassagc attached in the form of a note voicing the mitigation of "the whole alarmed bunch"
 Dean Just Laughs.
 The dean, however, remains unper- turbed
 T have simply done my duty as I saw it," she said, land am prepared to take the consequences. I have an tagoLized certain boys and girls of the university, and I suppose I must face the music" And she laughed. for the dean has sense of hunor. in spite of the reports to the contrary.
 One hears little else discussed in Baton Rouge these days, for the af- fairs of the university are the affairs of the town. Whoever heard of such thing." sad one debutante, who according to Dean Tucker, had "come out" too far. "She herded all the girls in the dress ing room, and looked us oyer. You can't go out on the floor dressed like that she said. The girl addressed had on a sleeveless dress, and the dress was cut low, of course.
 More Wraps for the Diaphanous.
 ." But what am I going to dop the girl asked, I'll show you.' said the dean, and she proceeded to wind her up in yards and yards of chiffon. until she looked like a cocoon! nj give you my word"
 Dean Tucker denies the chiffon eni. sode however, "I simply wrapped a lew scarves around her." she said.
 The rumor that l brought yards and yards of haline to the dance for this purpose is without foundation" The Reville, weekly organ of the university, in touching on this cues ton, comments as follows: Several disgraceful personal at- 'tscks have bean made upon Dean 11eker hy unknown perzens. Some

FIRE INSURANCE WAR 'SURCHARCE'
 WAS $25,000,000
People of Arkansas May Obtain Reduced Rates, as
 Result.

Little Rock, June 14-Collection of insurance sold in America during the past year gave insurance companies an increase of $25 100000 in revenue it was estimated at the recent meeting in New York of the special Investigating committee of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, accord ing to Bruce T. Bullion state insurance commissioner, who returned Friday from the meeting
 Whether this increased collection was necessitated by increased taxes and increased war costs paid by the insurance companies during the pc riod, and whether the continued col lection proposed by the companies is justified, is the object of the commit tees investigation, which was carried over until August 4, MT. Bullion said, to allow for the gathering of addi- tional data.
 Only five states of the union have laws under which the collection can be prevented, Mr. Bullion says, but in case the national association of state commissioners should find that the collection is unjustified, and recommend that it be discontinued, the companies would follow the recom- mendation, he believes.
 May Reduce Rates.
 In Arkansas, where the surcharge amounts to very heavy tax on the people. the increased collection is being figured into the revenue of the companies, to be averaged with the revenues of the five-year period just proceeding, for the determination of the profits of the companies. Under the new Utley law, if the profit is funds to exceed five per cent for the five-year period just ended. MT. Bull lion will be empowered to enforce a reduction in rates charged in the state. That is the only recourse pro- vided by Arkansas laws.
 The present investigation, however, may result in speedier relief, in case it is found that the sur-charge is not justified by the actual expenses of the companies.
 The Investigating committee is com posed of commissioners of Mississippi, North Carolina, New York, Massa- chusetts, Michigan, Vermont and Virginia

NEWEST HANDBAG IS or FUR
Convenience Matches the Muff, Toque
or Trimming Of coat-Many
otkSr Striking Designs.

Really perhaps there Is nothing very
novel in the handbags of the mo-
ment. But just the same there are
many new ones in the shops, as fresh
and crisp-if one can call a handbag
of softest chiffon velvet crisp-as pos.
sible.
One handbag that is extremely sea.
sonable is that made Of fur. II
matches, of course, the mum or the
tOque or the collar or the trimming
on ones coat or frOck. Sometimes,
indeed, il is muff and handbag COM
Unconstitutional even this idea is not
new, as IL was introduced a couple
Of years ago.
Then there are the lovely bags of
chiffon velvet or velours made with
dull silver settings-not too much Of
the metal, and the metal not too
bright and shiny. Some of these bags
are the ones with the octagonal or
oval top that clamps down at one
side. faced with a really good mirror.
And the bit of chased silver Is the
framework of the top. and of course
the metal clasp, as well. Is OF the sill
yer. This same idea is carried out
with dull woods of various shades of
brown. Sometimes, with these bags,
a big wooden bead forms part of the
tassel at the bottom.
Tassels are the almost universal
finish to the smaller handbags. When
a bag reaches that larger size. that
puts it in the class Of a shopping bag,
II is not tasseled ut the bottom. But
the handbag almost always swings a
tassel, of strands of chenille. Of heavy
twisted silk. of beads. either of steel,
of jet or Of colOred glass, or else a
combination of wooden beads and
heavy strands Of silk.
Some of the new bags have Innings
Of green, blue or pink and white
checked silk, quite like gingham in
general appearance. Indeed. they are
of silk Bingham. AT first thought a
little checked design of pink and
white is no suitable lining for a state
ly bag of black chiffon velvet that
costs anyway SO. but still this new
lining is novel, and it Is dainty and
fresh as well. Moreover, 1t wears
fairly well, something not always to
be found.
Most OF the handbags have small
purses within that are attached to the
top framework by means of little |
chains. This Obviates the necessity Of |
feeling blindly about in the depths Of
the bag for the change purse. as one |
has had to do In the smaIl-mouthed |
bags of the moment.

About OUR Wells
Face Coverings Abandoned by
the Women of Paris.
Curious Arrangement, Imitation Of the
"Flu" Mask Is Being Worn by
American Women.

The story comes from Paris that
women have abandoned the veil. They
are tired Of II. They have taken to
lcartwheel hats and do not wish to de-
stroy the outline of the brim BY the
folds of face covering.
There are women over here, howev-
er. WHITES a fashion correspondent,
recently returned from Ferris. who are
wearing the most curious vell America
has seen 1t is attached to turban;
it Is as thick Us the heaviest coarse
net can be woven. and Il Is drawn
tight around the eyes and the top of
the nose, leaving the neck and lower
part Of the face bare. II is the best
imitation of masque that we have
had so far. and IL II intimated that II
was taken from the influenza mask
which was worn over the lower part
Of the face. One of our own design
ers of eccentricities has produced a
genuine influenza MASK Of dyed lace
which is drawn upward over the chin
and nose to the back of the head The
French one l. more seductive and Co
quettish.
In AmeriR we are addicted to wells.
We wear them at all Seasons. whether
or not we know how to adjust them.
The reason for their diminished fash
Ion during the last year is due to the
war activities of the great mass Of
women. First, q veil takes q long
time TO adjust; it should be done well.
Or not at all; and, secondly, II is not a
good addition to uniform caps. So the
veil dropped out. except among a GER
tain segment of fashiOnableS who
would feel ashamed of their naked
ness, as they say. IL they went with
out Ii. The hurry and furry of life

it was extremely harmful and injuri-

IDENTIFY did not know, that an influenza
mask must be washed every three
hours In a disinfectant. The ex-
IRENE danger in the veil rested in the
fact that 1t was not washed for days

For those who wear the veil, the mil
liners and jewellers have united in in
Producing a trifle which has gained
much prestige. 1t is an arrow, an
aviator's wings, a dagger or the fieur-

the veil at the extreme upper tilt of
the hat in front.
1t has been the jewel of the war.
Women have turned their brooches into
these veil pins; they have had other
iewelry reset to possess the luxury of

them in real or imitation stones. in
order to be in the procession of FASH

COPY WAIsTcoATs OF MEN
Garments Donned by Fastidious Beaux
Of Other Days Now Charming
Fashion for Women.

Waistcoats and waistcoat blouses
are among the newest fashions from
Paris, and are one more OF the many
charming old-fashioned modes which
have been adapted to present-day
styles. This particular fashion was
taken from the clothes worn, not by
the women, but by the men of long
ago, for waistceats of varied and bril-
liant fabrics were the garments most
delighted in by. the fastidious beaux
Of other days.
No less varied and fanciful are the
waistcoats Of today. They are made
In the most delicate of chiffons, as
well as in such wool materials as these
times offer. Some Of them consist of
a front section OF metal brocade which
shows only when the coat Is open, and
others are made like blouse, with
sleeves of chiffon or crepe de chine,
and with back and front of brocade or
satin
waistcoats Of this kind are worn
with a suit. and when the coat Is open
they look much more substantial and
effective than the ordinary blouse.
without the coat they make a one
piece costume of the suit, and one
Is not aware of any lack of harmony
such as usually results from the use
Of an ordinary blouse and the suit
