New Wave of Train Wrecking
in Distraction in
Mexico
By Associated Press.

LAREDO, Tex, July 11-With-
drawal of troops from bandit-infested
regions in central and southern Mex
leo City to Puebla at a point only a
north has led 20 a new wave of train
wrecking and railway destruction in
that republic, according to stories
printed by Mexico City papers receiv-
ed in this city.
Thu NEST striking feat of the rebels
was the capture of a train from Mex
leo CVity to Puebla at a point only a
few miles from the latter city by the
forces of the. former federal general,
Cirilo Arenas, who revolted about a
year ago. One hundred of the several
hundred passengers were seized as
hostages. among them an American,
Charles Chapman. They were driven
for hours on foot over rocky trails to
the headquarters of the rebel chief
tain. Later they were released with
out being held for ransom and made
their way safely to Puebla. The ban
dts loot is estimated at 10000
pesos.
This followed close on the heels OF
the capture OF six well known resi-
dents of Mexico City at a picnic resort
known as the Desert of the Lions, not
more than a dozen miles from the
capital. The captors, former follow
ers of Zapata, sent the women of the
party back to Mexico City for a ram
som of 2,400 pesos and released their
captives when the money was deliv-
cred.
More than 100 followers of Pedro
Gabay are reported to have been kill

Prisoners Try to Escape

eral hundred Germans and AustrianS
made-an attempt to escape by tunnel
ing from the Holdsworthy concentra.
ton camp here recently in order to
foil the purpose of the Australian au-
thorities to send them back to Ger
many and Austria.
The military authorities had pre-
viously notified the interned Teutons
that they were Don to be returned to
their native countries. Shortly before
they were to be taken OUT of the in
ternment camp, the authorities dis
covered q tunnel $50 feet long which
led from one of the barracks under
meath the fence enclosing the camp
and thence to the surface outside.
The tunnel was the work of about
100 men and apparently was begun
as soon as the prisoners received
warning of the intention to send them
home. They lac planned to break
free from h camp on the night be-
fore the sailing of the steamer for

Denies He Tried to Make
China a. PTOteCtOrate
(Associqted Press Correspondenoe.)

TOXIC, June 5:-Defending his
policy toward China during his pre-
miership, Marquis Okuma has made
a statement hat it was never his in
tention to try to make q protectorate
of China.
He declared that the movement of
Yuan Shi-Kai to make himself en-
peror of China OWED much to the in
~stigation of Germany and if Yuan's
ambition had been attained and he
had cen proclaimed emperor it was
more than probable that China would
have been brought under the COM
plete sway of Germany. At that time
Japan rendered advice to President
Yuan, and France and Great Britain
took the same view as Japan did, en-
~deavoring to check the realization OF
Germany's designs.
Referring to the famous twenty
n demands presented to China
while he was premier, the marquis
held it was wrong to attack the Chi
nese policy of the Okuma govern
ment without making a careful study
of Chinese affairs and of the diplo-
matte history that obliged the con-
clusion of the treaties that followed

Plan the Laying Of a Gable
From America to Sweden
CAssociated Press Correspondsnce.)

CAssociated Press Co~rrespondsnce-)
STOCKHOLM, June 1s:-Strong
financial interests in the United
States have under consideration with
authorities of the Swedish govern
ment a plan to lay q cable from
America to Sweden. making the land
ing at Gothenburg, say the Dagens
Nyheter.
British monopoly and control Of
cable connection between Sweden
and the United States and the exer-
else of British censorship in the war
has caused some adverse criticism
here. The American minister, Ira
| Nelson Morris, now in the United
States, is said to be energetically sup.
porting the plan under consideration
and it is understood here that n of
the of his visit to America
! was in connection with the proposed
new cable service.
Advocates of the proposal point to
the prospect that o considerable part
! of American trade with Russia, Fin
land. Poland and the Baltic provinces
will pass through Scandinavian coun-
tries, and they see in this increased
need of a direct cable service with
the United States.

Urges Teachers Union


COLLTNGSWOOD, July 11:-Ad-
dressing the faculty and teachers of
the State Summer School, DR.. Henry
Snyder, superintendent of schools, Of
Jersey City, advocated a union of
public school teachers in the state
for the especial purpose of demand
ing of boards of education better
financial remuneration for their serv-
ices. Teachers themselves stand in
their own way and are the u of
their not getting higher salaries" he
said. They do not aim high enough.
Winner a school board can get a
teacher for a low salary it is not go
ing to pay a high wage, and it ap-
pears that cheap teachers are always
available; that they contract to teach
for a salary much lower than they
should, and in this manner keep even
the best teachers from demanding
higher wages

On the site Of the present subtreas-

anew city hall was erected in 1899. In

them. Boudoir slippers of ribbon and
lace match up with these dainty be-
longings.
The combination ut the right is
made of figured georgette. The body
is shirred on two cords and edged with
full frill of plain georgette. Another
frill froths about the waistline where
the Knockers are set on and ribbon
forms the suspenders over the Shout
ders. Finally a butterfly of plain
georgette is the last beguiling touch
that is sure to tempt feminine eyes
into looking too long at garment that
is bound to prove irresistible. While
georgette has proved much less fragile
than it looks, underwear made of it
is a luxury that the average woman
will hardly indulge in. But crepe de
chine has wearing qualities that make
1t really economical.

Lingerie seems to have reached the
daintiness; one wonders what will hap
pen next. Its loneliness is not born
to waste its flesh-pink blush unseen
but quite the contrary. Camisoles and
chemise, combinations and slips are
all visible through sheer blouses that
depend upon them for added charm.
The blouse often serves merely ito
veil the roses bloom;" the camisole or
other underbodice providing the most
interesting contribution to the cos
tune. Figured georgette, crepe de
chine lawns, laces and nets all play
their exquisite parts in making up
these indies. The finest batiste also
holds the allegiance of gentlewomen
who never waver in their loyalty to
this soft fabric and the hand embroid-
cry that it makes worth while.
An envelop chemise and combina-
ton, both of American design and
manufacture, are shown in the picture
above. Flesh pink crepe de chine
makes the practical chemise shown at
the left, trimmed with insertion and
edging of the familiar val lace that
women love. A small yoke of Irish
lace is set in at the front. Pink satin
straps with bows suspend the chemise
from the shoulders and the same rib
bon makes dignified bow with hang
ing loops and ends to embellish the
front. This garment is delightfully."-
cool for warm weather when the light
est union suit proves burdensome. A
short undervest and corset are worn
under it.
Just because they are so pretty and
for no other reason. the pink silk gar
tiers, with wide lace frills, flaunt their
charm in company with this sensible
chemise. There is fad for such
charming little frivolities and women
delight to present each other with

Mildew usually appears on the
fbers of cotton and linen; it takes the
form of small round dark spots; in
reality 1t is q vegetable growth. or
form of fungus, which develops on the
fibers Of the material. Its appearance
Is due to dampness, and reflects dis
credit on the work of the housekeeper,
as the clothes must either have been
put away damp or kept in damp cup
board.
+ Owing to the nature of mildew it is
difficult to remove One Of the sim
plest remedies is to moisten she stained
fabric, rub it thickly with soft soap
and sprinkle it with common salt.
Place the material on the grass in the
sunshine and keep it moist. Renew the
treatment each day until the stain dis
appears, M III
A quicker method, and surer one,
Is to keep the stained part in white
material in solution of bleaching
liquor. To prepare the bleaching
liquor, put half pound of chlorinated
lime into basin and pour half gal
lon of boiling water over it; add two
tablespoonfuls of washing soda, and
stir to break up all the Jumps, and to
enable the water to extract all the
chlorine. Strain carefully to remove
