WOMAN DECREE IS NOT POPULAR


 BOSTON, May 23.-Nothing in con- nection with the Bolsheyist move ment has aroused such widespread disgust as the attempts of various local soviets to nationalise women. The apologists for the Bolshevists are now saying that they Go not be- lieve such decrees were ever issued or if they were issued that they were not intended to be seriously en- forced
 In this connection Mir. J. Allen Pal ner, now connected with the Genoa office of the National City Bank, who was in Russia at the time of the Bolsheyist revolution, and for some months after, says: A Just before I left Russia, a de- cree was published in the newspa-

 this decree was ever enforced, for, as
 I have already stated; it was pub

 by the way the most important part.
 Attempts to do so may have been
 made, but l gresatly doubt that this
 further display of Bolsheviki ideal

 preciable success. Even the oc-
 complices of the bestial framers of

DOUGLAS, May 22.-George Be ban, paramount of all character play CTS is given his choice theme with a character he has been most success full in delineating, that of an Italian in "One More American" a patriotic picture without any of the exagger- ated sentimentalism of the so-called patriotic film. In this picture one sees one of the most romantic things of New York's Little Italy" a sam. pie of it's theatres.

Wilkesbarre, Pa.-Eighty-three men
dead and so others burned and MAIN
ed. many of whom will die, is the toll
of a disaster in the Baltimore tunnel
of The Delaware and Hudson Coal
Company at Wilkesbarre Thursday
Seven kegs of black powder, SOo
mounds in all, were detonated and the
dead and manned were literally roast
ed by the superheated gas flames tol-
lowing the explosion.
The tragedy occurred while the men
were on their way to work this morn
ing. Owing to their working places
being two miles from the mouth OF
the tunnel the men were making the
trip in a train of IA mine cars drawn
by an electric motor, the powder be
ing carried in two cars in the middle
of the train.
The train had penetrated the tun
mel about 200 feet when August Rud

drawn by the air current, envelopes

Batter, Pa. Buchanan was nominated
nv the Democratic party in 1856. He
won and was inaugurated on slarch T.
1857. His administration, which came
directly before the outbreak of the
Civil war. was generally thought to De
overlenient toward the activities OF
the southern leaders. On February t.

or;oin of Buttons.

The Elizabethan era gave vogue u
the button and buttonhole, two lnVen-
tions which may be regarded as I'LL
portant, since they did much to reVo-

was wholly a product of needleWork'
which was soon improved by use OF a
wooden mold. The brass button IS
said to have been introduced by a BIZ

sewing the cloth upon the covered
button. Then an ingenious Dane nit
upon the idea of making the button ID

The most important branch OF Tile
