MAN IN SPIRIT
LOVE- TRAGEDY
LIVES; CAN SEE
Victim of Girl Suicides
Bullet Recovering and
May Regain Sight.

Chicago, July 20.-Julius Jonas
will live. He will recover the sight
of one Of his eyes. Thus will Paul
inc Meglige's love be frustrated in
death, even as 1t was in life.
For when she shot him in her
home at 4728 North Lawndale ave-
nue. Sunday it, was her plan to take
him with her to the higher plane"
Of life, where his wife and four
children could not interfere. And
having turned her revolver upon
herself, she went to her death in
the belief that she had blinded his
eyes forever to all other women.
But at the .Montrose Avenue hos
pital, where the $4,000 a year sales
manager lay swathed in bandages.
1t was said he not only would live
but that he would be able to see
out Of one eye.
One Eye Destroyed.
1.-THE bullet entered the optic
area" said DR.. Herman A. Mote.
THE sight of the one eye is per-
msnently destroyed, but the left eye
may be saved. MIR. Jonas has part
control Of it now"
Further investigation into the
origin of the love triangle and the
resultant tragedy brought charges
and counter-charges.
Mrs. Jonas, the wife. and her chill
dren, stood loyalty by the philander-
ing husband and father. They por-
trayed him IS a victim of q de-
signing woman. And Mr.. Jonas, on
his hospital cot. felt strong enough
to corroborate their charges and
avow renewed love for his deserted
family.
~Putty In His Hands,"
On the other hand, both the moth
er and married sister of the dead
woman hurled accusations at Jo-
mas. They produced more letters
from him pouring forth his burn
ing love to her and said that though
she sought repeatedly to renounce
and rid herself Of him he bounded
her into putty in his hands"
Jonas drove Pauline insane y
avowed Mrs. Helen Sanders, the
sister. For the past two weeks
she acted queerly. The strain OF
his continual bounding broke her
down mentally. She tried to turn
against him. Both mother and ]
prayed with her for the strength
to doso. But she could not hold
out against his persistence"
Miss Meglige last year took out
an insurance policy for $4,000 in the
Massachusetts Mutual Life Insur-
ance company, naming her mother
as beneficiary.
Meanwhile Coroner Peter Hoff-
man and a coroner's jury were
seeking solution Of the tragedy
to satisfy official records.
Only a few persons attended the
! inquest, which was held at Pur-
tells undertaking rooms, 1905
Montrose avenue. Among them was

COX GIVES
HISSTAND'
ON LEAGUE
Pledges Whole Hearted
Support to Pact With
Certain Reservations
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.
fSnecial to The ArguS.)

Columbus, Ohio, July 20.-Gov-
ernor Cox's conference with Pres
ident Wilson opens the Democratic
campaign. To Republican eyes it
reveals the Democratic nominee a
partner in the sins Of Wilson De-
mocracy. To Democratic tacticians
it makes the Ohio governor a part
ner in the virtues of Wilsonian
idealism, best expressed perhaps in
the League Of Nations.
But inside the Democratic party,
where the San Francisco conven-
ton had opened few old wounds
in the contest between the reac-
tionary and progressive wings of
the party, there is redoubled inter-
est in what sort of an entente re-
ally was established between the
president and the Democratic
standard bearer.
"A Worthy Successor"
From staunch Wilson men in
Washington who usually get accur-
ate information on White house
politics and from Franklin Roose-
velt and other members OF the Cox
party with whom the writer made
the journey from Washington, these
impressions of the White house
conference were drawn:
First and foremost, the president
showed plainly his pleasure that
the Democratic party had selected
a young and vigorous champion of
the principles for which he himself
had fought in public life. Mr.. Will
sons attitude was that of q man
who was turning over the leader
ship of the party to successor
who he felt was worthy Of the job.
Second, not a word was said by
the president concerning the man
agement Of the campaign or of the
managers, nor did the president
ask for the perpetuation of his pol
t.icies.
In Close Touch.
The whole conversation was OF a
general character with the League
of Nations as the principal subject.
AS a matter of fact there was little
new to be gone over. Although the
public hasn't perhaps observed it,
! Governor Cox has been in rather
close touch with the White house
for many months and was in fire.
: quent communication by telephone
with Secretary Tumulty while the
San Francisco convention was in
progress.
The president has always looked
upon Governor Cox as one of the
younger progressives in the Demo-
cratic party who would be depend
ed upon to carry out forward look
ing principles. He regards Gov
ernor Cox as the product of the
newer school of Democratic states
men and as q splendid refutation OF
the argument that the Democratic
party doesn't develop able exec.
utives.
Pledges Support to League.
Third, Governor Cox pledged the
president his whole-hearted sup
port for the League Of Nations
This may cost Cox some anti-Wil.
son votes in the Democratic ranks
but the Ohio governor even before
his nomination made it very cleal
that he stood for the ratification Of
the peace treaty with such reserva.

A T the left of the Two suits pictured
1 \ ebove, there is dressy model
of very unusual design and very hand
some. 1t is made Of dark blre twilled
cloth, for which either tricotine or
gabardine might be used as a substi-
tute; but any one of them must be
chosen In good quality, because the
success of the design depends upon
sufficient body, or weight, in the ma
terial, and It's finish. A narrow, tubular
braid Of white silk appears to be ap-
piled to the coat and skirt by couch
ing 1t on.
Everywhere we come upon the I'M
expected in this model--in the cuffs
Of white crepe de chine, 0rnamented
with white soutache braid, in the white
motif of net and embroidery silk or
braid, daringly placed at the top Of a
split in the coat, and other details.
The one-piece skirt arrives at a

means of an over-lapped seam that
runs In diagonal instead of .yerti-
cal line and is left open to the depth

rF WOMEN live up to the high
i standard Of good taste and refine
ment expressed in the best efforts of
designers of apparel for spring, they
will do well. Some reporters of the
styles always have an eye out for the
sensational-the knee length skirts or
those impossibly narrow ones-but
these freakish things do not get very
far. Only very young, very pretty and
unsophisticated persons may be ex-
cused for adopting them, and then
they are only tolerated as ay little
youthful folly for which the inexpe-
rienced are not to be blamed too much.
In any assembly of people who have
plenty Of money to spend on clothes,
there is usually little that is extreme
or freakish; what pleases the student
of dress is the beauty and the refine
ment of the new styles.
A very good example of this ap-
pears In the pretty frock of figured
foulard which Is pictured here. II Is
made Of that perennial favorite, dark
blue silk, figured with white. but
toulard. and similar silks, are shown

of ta.s hem. The braid is applied to
the bottom of the skirt In vertical
lines at the front; at the back In d.
agonal lines and the coat corresponds
with it in this respect. The bottom of
the coat Is caught up at the front In
a deep fold. 1t hangs straight, over
smock of white crepe de chine,
fringed with chenille. The sleeves
are long and flaring. An ingenious
and gifted designer has achieved a
masterpiece in this suit.
The other suit is simple. practical
and clever, with widened hip lines
made by pieces set on and fastened
down with three bone buttons making
four plaits. 1t has one of the few coats
that are not open at the front to the
waist line and sets rather closely to
the figure.

with elbow, sleeves. The collar, cuffs
