orally speaking, the situation In Slo-

Is not without dlsquieting features.
The honeymoon of the revolution has
passed and some of the establishment
bound to follow the Introduction of n
new regime has set in. The Magyars
and the Magyarlzed elements have not
as yet been recmciled to the new re-
gime, and the peasants have recovered
from their first enthusiasm. A difficult
task of reconciliation remains to be
performed by the Czechs.
The population of Slovakia Is made
up of three clements-Slovak intelli-
gencia, which has always been very
strong for the union with Bohemia !;
the Magyars and Magyarized Germans,
and the peasantry. The intelligencia
has been completely satisfied by the
Czecho-Slovak government. The ad-
ministratIon has been handed over
completely to the very small number
of Slovak doctors, lawyers, authors
and professors that could be mustered
for service.
Maeyars Ignored.
Meanwhile the Magyars and Mag

the government could not find Slovak
to fill the job. Intense loyalty to the

Barlow Nix Is Hanged
After 2 Respites In Day

ATLANTA, Nov. 8.-Bartow Nix
white, ended at 1 :27 O'Clock vester-
day an unsuccessful fight to escape
the gallows that probably outdis-
tances any race with life ever made
in Georgia.
Twice yesterday, when the gallows
already had been prepared, he was
respited for couple of hours. but
Governor Dorsey declined to further
interfere with the sentence of the
court and the sheriff of Muscogee
county was told to proceed with the
execution.
Nix has been feigning insanity So
successfully that he came very near
putting it over on at least one of the
best mental experts in the state
Other experts, however, who had also
examined Nix, were convinced Nix
was not insane, and on their state
ment the governor gave the final
word shortly after 1 o'clock vester-
day afternoon.
Nix was convicted in connection
with the killing of West Everidge
and c. l. Alexander in Muscogee
county some months ago. It was set
up during the trial that he had pre-

dered with ostrich. Others have the
three little Prince Of Wales ostrich
tips placed at the end Of each rib, and
still others have the ferrule encircled
with feathers.
Very lovely are sunshades Of old
fashioned chlntz, such as might have
been used by the beauties Of pre-revo-
lutionary days. These make charming
garden parasols.
The French always make their par
asols tub shape, but we in America do
not like these shapes as well as the
larger English ones, because they In
terfere with our headgear. A tub
shaped parasol is made of old blue
georgette crepe over bright red taf-
feta and is outlined with red roses.
Both Cloisonne and jade are used for
the handles of parasols. For the coun-
try there are some charming Japanese
umbrellas that are very short--much
shorter than the diminutive English
rain or shine umbrellas that we have
been using. They are almost like
miniature parasol that may be tucked
under the arm when going out for a

DAYOFNARROW
AND WIDE SKIRT

Those who study styles closely look
upon the full overskirt gathered In at
the bottom as a forerunner Of wide
skirts, writes New York fashion cor
respondent. The silhouette has fol-
lowed the straight and narrow way so
long that unless there is a change
fashions will become stagnant and
there will not be sufficient stimulation
to the art and industry of evolving
new clothes to keep 1t at its best. Nor
will we enjoy the exhilaration that
comes from the wearing of something
entirely new. The narrow silhouette,
as well as the wide, appears in collec-
lions created by the same designers,
and this is bound to fill us with uncer-
tainty In ordering our costumes.
At the house of Callot In Paris are
shown dresses of the flaring Camargo
silhouette, their straight bell skirts
fairly bristling with frills cut so that
they stand out almost stiffly, and in
juxtaposition to these there are Cal
lot gowns so slender In their lines that
Grecian draperies are wide compared
to them. Many women order both
types of frocks, but she who looks
into the future and buys her clothes
to predate fashion will give consid-
Grafton to the wider skirt.
Narrow and Wide at Same Time.
The new skirts puff out halfway
between the knee and the ankle. There
are several ways Of creating this ef-
feet, which looks as though accom-
plished by means Of crinollne or a
cage. One Is by clever manipulation
of drapery; other times the bottom Of
the tunic is shlrred to heavy cord.
There is always tunic or overskirt
cut to flare at the bottom, where 1t is
brought in to tight straight founda-

I want to tell you about one other
dress that Fifth avenue designer has
just made. It reminds one of a mer-
maid. The upper part is of iridescent
spangled silver cloth that drapes
loosely around the body and low on
the hips. It CLEANS like shiny body
that has just come out Of the ocean
into the moonlight. The lower part Is
black satin, which is very tight around
the ankles and creeps away into a
little fishtail train that undulates'
along behind one.
Even the realm of parasolT has been
invaded by new materials. The same
feeling for the use of wintry fabrics
in this summers clothes that we have
seen noted in both hats and gowns Is
expressed in parasols. Black velvet
frequently is used for them; these are
lined with thin silks Of contrasting
tone. blue being the color most often
used.
Ostrich Finds New Place for Plumaee.
The French craze for the use Of os-
trich feathers appears in parasols as
well as hats. Many of these imported

fully deserves the title of "the open

feta frock Is corded In an unusual
way. The cords take the form of half
hoops, beginning at the bottom of the
skirt and curving upward toward the
waist. This silhouette aims to give an
effect Of extreme fairness both In the
back and front and a puffiness at the
sides.
In the skirt just described the front
is fiat solid cording. with the taffeta
setting out stiffly at either side. The
fiat appearance in the back Is empha-
sized through the skirt being drawn
toward the front by means of the shlr-

In the back than In the front.

formed by shirring narrow pieces of
taffeta and setting them In circular
fashion on a plain skirt. The same
treatment Is carried out on the sleeves.
Mellow Brown Comes Once More.
We have always thought of brown
as winter color. Now 1t is being used
for our summer clothes, and used with
enchanting effect. A new shade of
brown, that very soft and mellow
brown tone seen In the roots of trees,
suggests hitherto unthought-of color
combinations. A tendency toward
profuse use of this color appeared first
In the French hats that came over this
spring; many models from the best
Paris modlstes were in this shade.
Now one sees on Fifth avenue in the
morning shopping hours ever so many
smart women wearing accordion-plait-
ed skirts of brown checked or plaided
wooden, with short coats of navy blue
serge.
