 aent and secretary,. he did5 f6 ger { that he had authority to try case of so grave a nature. The case may vet oyershadow the famous cases or Crayer, Hall, DevHn and Nichols, the Louisville players ejected from the National league in 1877. Oud4E enough the Louisville club at thaE time was owned by a man named Chase.
 Accusations Are Grave.
 While the league still takes a se- cretive attitude on the Chase case, It is known the former Yankee mana ger is accused of betting against his fearn. the Cincinnati Reds, and also IS accused of attempting to approach d Giant player. All this is supposed to have happened at the last series the Reds played on the Polo grounds last August.
 It was at this series that Mathew son suspended Chase indefinitely, and intimated the charges against Hal were of such a grave nature that Chase probably never again would play league ball.
 John McGraW, manager ot the >Iiants, and Poll Perritt, the long pitcher of the Giants are considered as the leading witnesses agalnsC Chase Both have been requested py Heydfer to attend the Chase hearing. Men who know the inside of the Chase case find it hard to believe that McGraw is anxious to obtain Chase for the Giants in view of the fact that McGraw is considered one of the most damaging witnesses against Chase
 Chase Sure He Will Be Acquitted.
 In fact it was the things that Mc- C4raw told Mathewson that led to Chase's suspension. Captain Mathew son still is overseas and of course will be unable to attend the hearlng'
 HeydIer says that Chase will pc given every opportunity to defead himself of the charges made against him. Chase will have the privilege or counsel at the hearing.
 The Cincinnati first baseman haS been in town all winter. He says ne will have no difficulty in proving hls innocence He says if he could have five minutes alone With John Heydier he could convince him that the charges against him have no tounda- ton. Chase still has a suit pending against the Cincinnati club for the salary he lost by reason of his sus- pension. He also claims that salary due him at the time of his suspension never was paid.

SALLEE QUITS BASEBALL?
Giants Big Twirler to Devote Time
 to Tobacco Raising.

New York, Jan. 22.-Word came from Lexington, Ky, last night that "Slim" Sallee, pitcher of the Giants, was so interested in raising tobacco on his farm that he had decided to retire from baseball.
 McGraW will miss Sallee. He stood seventh on the list of winning pitch CTS last season on the rating of earned runs per game, with 2.25, but finished nineteenth in the percentage of games won and lost, with eight and eight.
 Tn 1917, however, Sallee did much to carry the Giants to the National league pennant. The big left-hander won IS games and lost seven, and had an average of 2.18 earned runs per game.

NEW WAYS ID
 SIMULATE THE TUNIC IN GOWNS
Whim of Designer Makes Feature of Trimming of
 Skirt.

The little frock for best wear needs but the touch of clever designer to achieve an eminentIy pleasing re- suit with a. minimum of trimming.
 The whim of the designer here evil dences itself in the impressionistic tunic. Analysed, the impressionistic ing material which winds itself in serpentine curve about the skirt
 Now, Mrs. DressmaKer, if you are looking for a design for summer frock, get your materials at hand either organdie or crepe de chine or any other silk you would care to make up for a best frock for the older junior.
 Suppose we have organdy-pink, let us say-then make the dress and apply the palest lavender organdy band to the skirt in the tunic way of this model. Then have two-tone acorn buttons covered with pink and lavender organdy and see that they are sewed very close to each other down to where the stipulated tunic begins. The little collar and cuffs of the same narrow proportions, are very smart.
 But to continue with the posibili- ties: Yellow organdy would do very daintily, Then make the serpentine band upon the skirt of white net. The effect is very airy and certainly very much approved by Dame Fash ion. The buttons would be of net over the organdy.
 Crepe de chine may be the material you have at hand. Very well, use georgette crepe for the band upon the skirt.
 Whatever you use to stimulate the tunic, picot one edge of it and use the same material for the collar and cuffs. That sash which perks out in the back suddenly appears from within by the way of two large but tonholed openings upon the side back.

ART ORIGINATES FELLOWSHIP IN
 INDIVIDUALS
Forms Sole Universal Ian guage Which Will in Time
 Make Wars Remote

Tn 2 study trip of forty of our advanced architects and sculptors to
 Diton," writes Director George S.
 Hellman of the College of Fine and
 Applied Arts, A E. F. University, "I
 saw one of our majors lying fiat on
 the street measuring the base of a
 column, 6 lieutenant on a stepIadder
 taking measurements of the capital, while an enlisted man sketched the
 facade of the building. Art makes
 for fellowship between nations as be-
 tween Individuals. Whether in poetry
 Tn music, in painting, or in architec-
 ture, 1t is the sole universal language
 and as the appreciation of beauty in
 the schemeof existence grows among
 mankind war itself will become more
 and more remote"
 The art side of the soldier univers- lty in France is worth noting. At
 Beaune between three and four hun
 dred architects, painters, scuIptors,
 and industrial and commercial art stu dents were busily at work. At Bel levue, near Paris, was the American EXpeditionary Forces art train cen
 tre, with another group of between
 two and three hundred art students. the majority of them men of adyauc- ed qualifications. At Beaune and a f Bellevue were fine libraries. while | earnest faculties were conducting the l courses, faculties in large part drawn from the army itself A third local ity for instruction was Paris. where | the exterior ateliers of the EcoIe des Beaux Arts provided for a group of l approximately a hundred soIdier-art-
 ists, who found places there by vir-
 tue of the general headquarters orders | which brought members of the Amer
 lean Expeditionary Forces to the Sor- bonne. The fourth phase of the work | was termed the hospital Section 9
 Here some 300 students worked un- | der the immediate direction of fifteen l art teachers drawn from the women

 We are young country necessarily | lacking in art traditions, lacking old 1 churches and castles, and the love | Illness which time itself confers upon ! architecture. But tra ditions must be-
 gin somewhere, and what time is bet
 ter than this to begin our own tra- l ditions of art? This Is a time of | great beginnings, and our army can | bring no more inspiring message to | our nation than this-that the art l impulse is strong and enthusiastic | among the youth of America I am
 confident that in the years that are
 soon to come it is our land that will

Countess Declares America Has Most Beautiful Girls
WarTrodden Europe Looks to America As Mother of All Nations Countess Dumas Was One of Most Popular
 Patriotic and Social Leaders in France.

That the United States, with the 'most beautiful girls in all the world; most wonderful mothers and a coun- try of the greatest ideaIs-more ad- vanced than any other land,'' is the foremost nation in the world, is the belief of Countess Dumas of Paris, now a visitor in Boston.
 You American folks don't realize what great people you are and are innocent of the fact that the coun- tries of war-trodden Europe look to you as the mother of all natons,' de- clared the countess.
 The possessor of the French war medal and a score of citations, award ed during four long years of coura- geous service with the French Red Cross, Countess Dumas is a guest in Newton Center, Mass. She is a des- cendant of Count Guillaune Mathieu Dumas, the famous French general who was aide-de-camp to Rocham- beau in the American war. The gen. eral died in Paris in 1887.
 The countess arrived at Boston on Saturday after a trip from Denver Col. At Denver she spent many weeks recuperating following her many years of war activities on the battlefelds oi France.
 When the armistice was signed tn: countess left immediately for this country, in anticipation of a lona rest. When the Germans inaugurateC their attempt to conquer the world the countess joined the Red Cross and all through the dreary years ot the great war was one of the mos popular patriotic and social leader: in France. Parties were held by tho countess under the auspices of the Y. M. c. A. in her beautiful home il Paris. Here she entertained with the. atrical talent parties of wounded American and French soldiers. Twice a week parties of 50 were sent to the countess residence. and the wounded

Birthday Bio-Briefs Famous Women
LUCRETLA l.. BLANKENBURG.

''Mrs. Blankenburg? Oh, yes of course, she is the real Mayor of Phil a deIphia, this was an oft repeated comment. Prior to his election, the City of Philadelphia had been re- ceiving the services of both the Blan- kenburgs free for nearly forty years. At the Centennial Exposition they be- gan their public work. Much of Mrs. Blankenburg's civic work was direct lv in behalf of women. In the cook ing classes that she opened, Mrs. Ror- CT, the well known authority on cook cry, was one of the first pupils. She established classes for girls and wo-
 men to become skillful in special lines of work. She caused laws un- just to women to be changed; helped in inaugurate the system or police matrons; and helped in securing comfort and safety to the citizens, in her work for trolley lenders, the abatement of the smoke nuisance and what she called "Clty House keeping"

lads were served Loyalty as guests at a big dinner.
 Countess Dumas contends that tho mothers of the United States, who so willingly gave their boys to Uncle sam, should be commended as the greatest mothers of the generation. American mothers" she said, have born up wonderfully, and Cnly for those thousands of sons-the blood of the greatest mothers on earth the war would have concluded to an- other alternative Those boys, the United States army won the war un- occasionally"
 The United States today the countess went on, lis the greatest country on the globe. She is the standard of all nations, and the war trodden countries of Europe look to her as the mother of them all. The people hero don't realize how much France looks to America. The Euro pean countries take the United States as a standard. The United States is an example for her subordinate na- tions It will be but a matter of a few years before the nations of the world adopt American methods in construction, business and farming. The United States entrance into the war put new blood into the belliger- ents. She opened their eyes, and the results will be that these nations will be born anew and in short time es tablish their place in the world. "The United States has made such an impression upon the other ma tions in her achievements that, whe- ther right or wrong, in the future other powers will follow in her foot steps, being well assured that tho best will be accomplished. If tho United States has riots and Bolshe- vism, so the other countries will do likewise. When an American citizen is doing the best he knows how he is helping the people across the wat CT"

 Women.

On Wednesday at 2;S0 o'clock in the afternoon, there will be another interesting millinery demonstratioH at the Food lint on State street. These demonstrations have proved so popular that they are given often to satisfy the demand on the part of the women for instruction. Many women in the city and vicinity have become interested in home millinery through the Hut demonstrations and because the work is made so simple and every detail explained very care fully, many women have found cour- age to attempt to make a hat for daughter or their own use.
