Want Injunction Dismissed.
The restraining order issued by
Federal Judge Anderson at Indian
apolis last week was made return
able Saturday. The miners counsel
will go into court then and ask for
dismissal of all proceedings. One
of two things will happen:
The court, according to officials,
either will grant the plea of the
miners or issue permanent injunc-
ton carrying with it a mandatory
order to John L. Lewis, acting pres
;dent of the miners ganization, to
call off the strike.
Whatever the court does, it is ex-
7ected TO be the next important
move bearing on the question of set
thing the strike.
Would Wipe Slate Clean.
Miners representatives and other
lsbor leaders emphasized today that
withdrawal of court proceedings
would bring peace to the coal fields
within 48 hours. Lewis statement
that the miners would be willing to
negotiate new wage scale with
out reservations" meant, they said,
that the slate would be wiped clean
and demands for a five-day week
and a six-hour day together with
80 per cent wage increase with
drawn. But labor leaders declared
there was no hope of miners return
ing to work in a body until the new
agreement had been ratified.
President Wilson, sick in bed, is
sued orders giving Fuel Administra-
tor Garfield authority to regulate
price, distribution and shipment of
all fuel, including anthracite. This
action restored all powers vested in
Dr.. Garfield during the war. The
fuel administrator was in conference
continually today, checking up on
the coal supply and arranging with
Director General Hines of the rail-
road administration for its distribu-
ton where most needed.

Girl Victim Of Negro
Assault Faints in Court

George Kerrell, o10 Romania street,
who found Miss Kroupa in the
weeds after the negro had aban-
doned her. Mr.. Kerrell identified
Johnson as the negro he had seen
in the vicinity of the, assault Just
before he found the girl where she
was left bound and gagged after
being outraged. t. N
Il was returning to my work as
stenographer in The Bee build
ing," declared Miss Kroupa. II had
gone home to lunch and it was 1890
o'clock when l met the negro near
Tenth and Canton streets. I was
walking in an opposite direction and
saw the man before he reached my
side. l had no reason to suspect
there was an evil purpose, in the
mans mind, and the first intimation
] had of his object was when he
seized me.
Struggles in Vain.
II struggled, but my strength was
of no avail. l tried to cry out, and
he stuffed a handkerchief in my
mouth. He dragged me about 100
feet down the embankment into the
weeds. He then tied my hands with
rope. The handkerchief was kest
in my mouth and | was helpless. 1t
seemed like ages I was held there.
The negro went 'away once and
came back to me again.

When Mr.. Howell took the wit
ness he began to question her about
the location of streets in the vicinity
of her home. The purpose of the
attorney seemingly was to tire and
confuse the delicate girl before he
launched into his avalanche of ques-
tons in regard to the facts of the
case. For three-quarters of an hour

1.-The school people of Nebraska
are proud of this wonderful bond
victory in Omaha" said Jesse
Fl. Newton, superintendent of the
Lincoln schools and a member OF
the executive committee of the Ne
braska state teachers association
now in session here. at speaks
volumes for Omaha as a progressive
school city, and for the administra-
ton of Supt. ]. H. Beveridge. The
school interests throughout the en-
tire country will be forwarded be-
cause of it, and particularly will
cities be benefited where school
bonds are now being considered.

Letters to Teachers"
Facing Teacher Shortage.
A. A. Reed, state high school in
spector, and director of the univer-
sity extension department since
1907, belives that Nebraska, in COM
mon with the other states of our
country, is facing a serious crisis i'll
shortage of teachers. Mr.. Reeds
department has chrage of securing
teachers for the schools.
This situation" according to
Mr.. Reed, lis made acute by the
great increase in attendance i'll
schools of all grades. To relieve
this, it is imperative that the field
of teaching be made attractive both
to teachers and students in higher
institutions. It is not merely a
question of higher salaries; teach
ing positions must be based on a
12-months' school year, must be
more permanent, and provision must
be made for a reasonable basis of
retirement in case of disability or
old age. We are not holding or at
tracing into the service the highest
grade of young people, and the ma
ton will suffer if education is al
lowed to go into the care Of an in
terior teaching body"
Vocational Work Growing.
Clark A. Fulmer, state director of
vocational education and former
chancellor of Wesleyan university,
says the vocational work in 'Nebras-
ka is growing rapidly.
&C. W. Watson, state supervisor
of agricultural education; Miss Alice
Loomis, state supervisor of home
economics education, and L. A.
Hartley, state supervisor of trade
and industrial education, are part of
the increasing staff i'll this branch
of work." Mr.. Fulmer volunteered.

lights may always be obtained. how
ever. At any electricians shop you
can get an attachment to screw into
the socket of your one electric fixture
and separate wires may be run to two
lights.
A pretty way to light the bed room
is to have sconces with tall candles at
either side of the dresser mirror.
These, in addition to the bed side lamp
with it's silk shade. will give a soft
and pleasant illumination-and the
candles need be burned only during
the hour of dressing. If your bed
room is in an apartment and has its
window on a court, better give up
the charming bed side lamp with its
shaded glow and have a glar!ng over
head electric bulb than to trust to
dressing for the street in a dim re-
ligious light. 1t is always easy to tell
the women who have dressed in semi
dark apartment bed rooms. when one
meets them out-of-doors on a brilliant
ly sunny day. They never have the
spic-span. perfectly groomed look of
women who have dressed In 4 good
light. Hats never show specks of dust:
suits never show ugly little stains and
spots-in a dim lamp-glow. Details
of the costume look perfectly all right
in the semi-dark room, and pitifuliy
all wrong-out in the glaring sunshine.
II is most unwise to put the least
makeup on the face in a room lighted
artificially, when one Is going out-of-
doors into the broad daylight. Hang
a small mirror against the window
frame of a welflighted room. Pull
the window shade to the top--apd
then put on your face powder. You
will not look so charming-to yourself
in that garish light. as you would
in the darker bed room; but you will
look a lot better to your friends out
in the sunshine.
Pink or mauve 1ampshades are al
ways prettiest in a bed room. If the
furnishings of the room require blue
iampshades. or lavender ones. these
should be of very thin silk, lined with
rosy-toned silk. The mulberry pink Is

The silk shade pictured is a conven-

there is also a thin silk lining. so
that the strong glare of the electric
bulb may be diffused softly. This silk
shade has a new touch in the silk en-
broidery decoration. The edges of the
shade and the oval frame around the
embroidered flower are worked with
heavy and close buttonhole stitch In
silk floss slightly lighter in tone than

flower is embroidered with two tones
of pink silk floss.

spoil the most beautifully furnished
room and give it the garish common
placeness of a hotel bed room. There
are scores of devices for lighting the
bed room adequately and at the same
time artistically. and these lighting eff
fects should be as carefully considered
as the color of the cretonnes that
drape the windows, or the shape OF
the chairs. or style of furniture.
One shaded bedside light will not
give enough illumination to dress by
in a bed room of generous proportions.
though the one shaded light will give
very pretty glow If strong illumina-
ton is not needed and will light up
the room sufficiently for undressing or
for a gossip between friends. In addi-
tion to the shaded bed light there
should be n higher light. over the
dresser-or two lights. one on each

fur for richness and elegance. The

the fur used on the short Jacket. AS

Taupe Suits Well Liked As Ever
There is something, is there not,
about taupe tailor-made for autumn
and winter that satisfies ones inner
convictions about what real distinc-
ton should be? And a taupe suit
trimmed with sealskin has special dis
tinction of its own. Such a model is
pictured. and this costume more than
hints at the Directoire revival in dress.
You will note the high waistline, the
double breasted front with two rows
of buttons, the Tapped and buttoned
sleeve and the full coat skirt longer
at back than at the front. This irres-
ular line at the bottom of the jacket
is an important style feature for the
new season. 1t appears in three of the
costumes pictured today. Fur is used

Pockets Less Obvious

them: the plain belted sport suit of

trimmed with Australian opossum. In

put anything in them and run the risk

In this velour suit, again, is the irreg-
ular length of jacket, the front and

to emphasize their greater length.
The straight. tall fur collar is noted
on many of the new suits. Other
models have draped collars of the ma
terial in the Louis style. The lines of

graceful and such a costume should

Al Paris now--in fashions. Rad
zeal style changes are taking
~ place. Some of these changes
are evident in the autumn models al
ready on exhibition; but the actual
difference in styles will probably come
slowly-frocks and suits put out later
in the season win reveal them more
clearly to the average shopper, who
has not an acute eye for those subtle
style marks which spell radical differ
ence to the expert in modes.
Marked Change In The Silhouette
For one thing, the silhouette is go
ing TO be different. The perfectly
straight, lank silhouette is gone. In
its place is more rounded. more
feminine silhouette, with less sup
pressed curves at hip and bust. one
need not possess that.so-long desirable
attribute, a "boyish figure" to look
well in the new ready-made clothes
offered by the shops.
The source of inspirations for the
new autumn attire is found in Louis
XIV and XVI periods. This is evil
denced in the wider cut of skirts, the
more fitted effect of Jackets. in Wat
teau plcats, in lace frillnd vests, in
tichus and in many other details
Someone has suggested that these
Louis XVI styles are an indirect COM
pliment TO America, who came TO the
aid of France and her Allies in the
late war IT was in he Louis XVI
period, you remember. that the Amer
lean Colonies fought fur and won

democracy. Italy another Ally, has
been delicately complimented too. y
number of the style features for fall
and winter are directly u'aceable to
early Italian influence. Evening wraps
and evening gowns are reminiscent of
the splendid costumes worn in old
Florentine and Venetian times.
Notwithstanding this reversal to the
Louis period, second empire styles
have a place of their Own in the new
fashions and more than one model,
fresh from L aris, shows the Directotre
influence. But wherever they orig
mated tho new mode shows certain
definite tendencies. C,ne of these Is
wider skirts: another ia longer jackets,
and taPiored suits have generally a
more feminine softness Of line and
less straight rigidity.
Fur Used In Narrowt Bands
Less fur will be used on this seasons
tailor-mades than was noted last year.
When fur is used at all. it seems to be
used merely to give emphasis to a
drapery or an edge-not Eur for fur's
sake. like last winter when peltry was
