BUY NEAR DEATH INJURIES IN CEILING CRASH
Virgil Axtelle in Critical Condition Doctors Say Eight Tons of Metal and Plaster Fell Says I1l- spector

One fatality may result from the accident at the Strand theater Tues day afternoon when a large portion of the heavy ceiling over the balcony crashed to the seats below and injur- ing eight people.
 Virgil Axtelle, the most severely hurt of those caught in the fall of the de- bris, is at St. Joseph's hospital in a serious condition. Doctors in atten- dance stated last night that the chanc- es for his recovery were against him, but that he might pull through
 Virgil is 19 years old and is the son of Roland Axtelle, a nurse at St. Luke's home. An operation was performed upon the injured boy last evening.
 Word from all the others injured in the accident was to the effect that they were recovering from their cuts and bruises. Some of them, however, are still confined to bed.
 Begins inspection
 The removal and reconstruction of the entire ceiling of the Strand thea ter, or practically all of it, probably will be found necessary before the theater can be found safe for show purposes, according to City Building Inspector Herbert J. Mann, who yes terday began his investigation of the ceiling. The cause of the fall of half the balcony ceiling was definitely named by MT. Mann as too much plas- ter for the light nails which bore the plaster's weight.
 Further inspections of the remainder Of the ceiling at the theater will prob ably have to be made before Mir Mann can make a definite statement as to ordering the reconstruction of the i whole ceiling. Pending his report and | recommendations the city has as yet 1 issued no orders in this regard 1 Many interesting facts were reported i by MT Mann yesterday, following his report. The plaster ceiling at the | Strand, said Mir. Mann was the thick 1 est and heaviest he had ever seen ! ranging in thickness from two and g ] quarter inches down, with seven eights of an inch as the extreme min mum. Ordinary plaster is about three 1 quarters of an inch thick, he said.
 Eight Tons Fell
 Eight tons, of 16.O0O pounds, wa: MT. Mann's estimate of the weight o the portion of the ceiling that fel Tuesday afternoon, injuring eight per sons. This weight seems all the nor, huge when it is considered that onl7 a sheet of plaster some fl by 27 fee fell, or about 1,1O7 square feet O plaster.
 Samples of the Strand plaster ceilin, and of the nails which had to bear it weight were exhibited by Mir. Mann il his office yesterday afternoon.

THERE is a private house In

near Fifth avenue, where the
front yard has been converted into a
small corn patch. The stalks are half
grown, and the sight of a miniature

spectacle to passersby.
People are so taken with surprise
at the sight of corn growing there
I that they stop and make all sorts of
interesting comments. The reporter
passed the house one day last week,
when he came upon a group of curious
people discussing the advantages of
being your own corn grower Among
the group was a youth and his girl,
who had the most to say.
The youth said: "I'll bet the man
who lives here is out to save every
dollar he can in these strenuous times,
and I give him credit for having that
much sense"
The young woman thought differ

One man who claimed to know some
thing about farming sdid that the
stalks would produce enough corn for
a family of four for about two or
three weeks.

CAPE THE ONLY EVENING WRAP
RECOGNIZED BY DAME FASHION

with bands of fur along the hem be-
ing added with good effect. Serge
dresses in one piece design also have
deep collars at the back which reach
almost to the waist line and are so
deep in fact that they are nothing
more than little shoulder capes, though
callsd collars. Little girls school
wraps follow the cape fashions and
are made in copies OF grownups.
This ubiquity of the cape as an early
fall wrap serves only to show how
greatly it is in favor. We have had
it now with us so many months that
one has been justified in thinking the
day of the cape a thing of the past
that is until the fall designs of outer
garments prove such an assertion a
great mistake-and the cape is more
in demand than It has ever been.

II L dreSSmakerS could become magl-

- into this years cape at little cost
to owners, how grateful we should all
be-and how stylish!
For capes are de rigueur in every
we'll regulated wardrobe. Whatever
ones wrap for daytime may be, the
evening wrap must be a cape. 1t can
be made of any material one wishes
and trimmed with fur or not-but 1t
must be a cape, short or long-but a
cape. After all a cape is really ro-
mantle and lovely garment. Men
never appear half so interesting as in
those wonderful capes our naval Off
GERS wear. Beside a thing so eloquent
as this all enveloping cape with its
Sowing and interesting lines how pro-
sale and how ordinary seems even the
most expensive overcoat.
The same may be said Of the eve
ming coat as compared with the eve
ming cape. At any rate, to be up to
date we are left no choice in the mat
ter, for, as 1 said in the beginning,
1t is the evening cape which will hold
the centre of the picture this winter.
Those OF black satin are much IA
vored. They are often orIfamented
with splendid clusters of silver bro
caded motifs such as large oak leaves
or punches of grapes or sprawling de-
signs of large and attention arresting
figures. Just as often the fine costly

ornamented except for wide collars of
soft fox, lynx, mole or kolinsky-or
some animal OF equal softness.
Many Models Are Hoped In.
While there is no one fashion of
making a cape seemingly preferred TO
any other, one notices that many of
the newest and latest models are
hooped in along the bottom. This is
done sometimes with an extra band of
fur or OF velvet of rich and contrast
ing color to the body of the wrap. The
upper part of the cape is very full in
deed, flowing away from the shoulders
in voluminous folds which narrow at
the bottom of the wrap.
A stunning black cape of heavy satin
follows these lines with the fulness
sweeping out from underneath a deep
collar of kolinsky which reaches all
most to the waist line in front where
the cape crosses in a surplice effect
held in with a wide tortoise shell
buckle. The splendid wrap is lined
with canary colored chiffon imposed on
a foundation OF finest white satin. The

While this is an elaborate wrap
which will answer the most formal
needs, there are many less ornate capes
beautiful enough to please almost any
woman. These are made in satin in
any shade desired, though for general
usefulness none could be better than
black. Monkey fur comes into its own

THE R-34 AND AIR ROUTES.

\ /ALUABLE information has been
" obtained from the oversee
flights of the R-34 in the Brit
ish Governments ambitious plan to
weld the empire with a series of air
routes for commercial as well as mill
tary purposes.
Because of the more advantageous
and comfortable travel by the R-34
compared with that by planes, the
large crew on board and the prepara-
tons made for scientific investigation
by qualified men. the data obtained as
to meteorological conditions, air cur
rents and other points in flying are
much more valuable and trustworthy
than those CLEANED from the airplane
flights over the ocean.
Britain has a chain of landing places
southwark and eastward from Gibral-
tar, about 900 miles from London "as
the plane flies" toward the Cape, to
Egypt, to India and to the Austral-
asian possessions. Besides, the popu-

In seeking security for India the

gorgeous brocades which are employed
for the lower part of a sumptuous
wrap, While an added yoke of black or
velvet or of a darker tone is used to
give contrast and to tone the general
brilliancy. The brocades which repeat
clusters of velvet flowers interviewer
with gold and silver threads are
wonderful and make regal wraps for
evening wear They are often mounted
with splendid furs and just as often
with velvet.
Since brown is so much in evidence
we have noted with pleasure the quiet,
rich beauty Of a dark golden brown
velvet cape which hangs straight
from the shoulders in long full lines.
The beautiful velvet is left without
trimming and only a very huge high
fur collar of brown skunk is added
choker fashion at the throat. The
body of the cape is interlined for
warmth andthe fine white satin lining
adds the final touch of richness and
beauty,
Where the cape Is really more of
wrap, than a real cape, as one is just
as apt to find it, what sleeves there
are. placed at the sides in dolman
effect, are very wide and loose and
outlined with the same sort of fur
which trim the neck and hem of the
cape. Even the short fur capes or
Coates which sweep freely from the
shoulders have this sort of sleeve effect
without actually having sleeves.
Tulle and lace capes shorter than
the main garment on which they are
placed are seen on some very lovely

dark brown to match the satin and is
hung over a foundation Of pleated net

from the sides and back under deep
