SOLDIERS KILL L|EbkNECHT AS
 HE MAKES EFFORT ID ESCAPE

His Associate Rosa LuxembMg Dragged From Automo- bile By Mob-First Beaten Into Insensibility Then Shot Through Head-Capture Due to Over

} In the meantime Dr. Liebknecht was hurried into another automobile by officers and troops and the car was headed for the Moabit prison. While going through the Tiergarten, the machine was halted by a pune tured tire. Dr. Liebknecht was asked to get out by the officers, who in- tended to hail another automobile and continue toward the prison. While waiting, Dr. Liebknecht at tempted to escape and was shot dead by soldiers, who had anticipated such an effort on his part.
 When Dr. Liebknecht was arrested at the home of a relative on Mann heimer Strasse yesterday morning, he stoutly denied his identity. After be- ing escorted to the Eden hotel, he was searched and his monogram, TX. L. was discovered on his shirt
 Dr. Liebknecht's capture was due to a telephone conversation over heard by detectives in which he and Rosa LuXemburg agreed to meet at the home of man named Marcusson in the suburb of Wilhelmsdorf. Mar cusson's home, the police say. has long been one of the gathering places of the Spartacans.
 When the automobile which was carrying him to prison broke down he was warned against any attempt at flight, The officer in charge asked Dr. Liebknecht. who was bleeding from a wound in the head he had re- ceived through being struck by cane in the hands of some member op +i, walk a few hundred yards to the next street where a new automobile could be found.
 Dr. Liebknecht said he could, and the party started to walk. When near a group of trees Dr. Liebknecht pushed aside the soldier nearest him and dashed for the underbrush in the Tiergarten. The soldiers ordered him to halt. He paid no attention to their demands and several shots were fired at him. One bullet struck him in the base of the neck. squarely between the shoulders, and his death was virtually instantaneous.
 The government announced today that the circumstances attending the deaths of Dr. Liebknecht and Rosa Luxemburg would be investigated and that punishment would be meted out if it appeared that the custodians of either victim had neglected their duty or had any part in the trag- edy.

Find,

The game of hide and seek be-

beautiful stranger whose dainty foot
| prints had first started Lightfoot to
seeking her had been going on for
several days and nights when Light
foot found something which gave him
a shock. He had stolen very softly
down to the Laughing Brook hoping
to surprise Miss Daintyfoot. for that
was her name, drinking there. She
wasn't there.
Lightfoot wondered if she had been
there, so looked in the mud at the
edge of the Laughing Brook to see if
there were any fresh prints of those
dainty feet. Almost at once he dis
, covered fresh footprints. They were
not the prints he was looking for. No
sir, they We're not the dainty prints
he had learned to know so well. They
were prints very nearly the size of
his own big ones. and they had been
made only a short time before.
The finding of those prints was a
dreadful shock to Lightfoot. He un-
derstood instantly what they meant.
They meant that a second stranger
had come into the Green Forest, a
| stranger with antlers like his own.
Jealousy took possession of Light
foot the Deer; jealousy that filled his
heart with rage. He has come here

make him fight. I'm not afraid of

Lightfoot stamped his feet. and
with his great antlers thrashed the
bushes as if he felt that they were
the enemy he sought Could you have
looked into his great eyes then you
would have found nothing soft about
them. They became almost red with
anger. Lightfoot quivered all over
with rage. The hair on the back of
his neck stood up. Lightfoot the

in the air and whistled angrily. Then
he leaped over the Laughing Brook
and once more began to search
through the Green Forest. But this
time it was not for the beautiful
stranger with the dainty feet. He
had no time to think of her now. He
must first find this newcomer and
he meant to waste no time in do
ing it.

TRIMMING USED WITH FUR.
BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE,

, day, and it almost makes your own
knees shake to see woman wearing
a very short fur coat in real winter
weather.
But it is charming, nevertheless. and
perhaps not the least element in its
charm is the fact that it is so utterly
impractical. At the furriers' good
many coats of this short type have
been selected, and women are having
old fur coats remodeled, sometimes
into short capes and som etimes INTO
coates devoid of any protection De-

Furriers used to go rather slowly In

and a Persian lamb coat might boast

But that was ABOUT as far as fur

Now there has been an upheaVal OF
the traditions once dear to the hearts
of the furriers In fact, furriers have
changed Immensely. They simply have

happens that the design calls for t,
combination of furs that haven't been
combined before, that makes no diff
ference. 1t is simply up to the man
who understands the technical side OF
the furrier's art to make the vision
reality.
This season there are all sorts of
odd combinations - and sometimes
when three furs are combined in the
same garment the effect is not entire
" attractive. With two furs, however.
the result is likely to be better. In

hung from the shoulders to the hips,

The combination was homogeneous.
We have got used to evening frocks
of lace weighted down with hens of
fur. But we have not accustomed
ourselves to fur coats trimmed with
anything SO utterly inadequate as lace.

CHILD'S FROCK.

The childs dress shown in the
sketch may be made either of wool or
cotton fabric. The clever arrangement
of the front yoke is really the feature
of the dress. as it conceals the fasten-
ing. The lap-over end of the yoke is
held on the shoulder with a single but

meath section buttons snugly at the
left side. Plain Bingham may be used
for the dress, with belt of Scotch plaid
bingham, serge and plaid worsted or
taffeta may be combined, or the dress
may be of velveteen, with belt of plaid
silk. The belt is caught with black
velvet ribbon and the dress proper is
trimmed in stitching. The sleeves
may be full length or elbow length or
cut short, as shown in the sketch, ac-
cording to preference.
Style designers are now busily en-

Behind the efforts Of those who

In bold relief.
1t is almost precisely 800 years since
the Pilgrim Fathers set sail from Ply

an undeveloped continent, a brave ex-

actual te~rcentenary falls next year,
and already preparations are in rog

Ice to speed across the Atlantic to the
rescue of the old country. They
came actuated by that love of liberty
which had been handed down to them
from the ancient Pilgrims, and with
their British brothers they testified on
the battle field to the essential unity
OF the Angio-Saxon stock. 1t is now
for Great Britain and America to de-
