 Many of the new veils are edged prettily and hang loose and full. Some are close fitting over the face and long and flowing down the back. In fact there is a style of veil for every face; heavy figures, French dotted and ex- quisitely fine meshed veils are equally attractive in the new spring collection.

on the person of Red Cap. Wilson
shows a whole lot of improvement
and while in his first two appear
ances here he demonstrated he is a
fast little boy, last evening he was
working like flash. The New York
lad has made a host Of friends in
this section by his work and con,
gratulations were showered on him
after the go. Jellise is good, clean
little fighter and worked hard every
minute while in the squared circle.
He is aggressive and carries a good
punch and put up a good fight, for
which he deserves a great deal of
credit. The X. q. in the main bout
is the first that has been registered
in main attraction in this city for
several years.

dreamland. The first two rounds
both men worked hard and showed
they were clever at the game. both
landing some good slams. At the
start of the third Cote came out of
his corner like whirlwind and in a
rapid exchange of blows landed, and
Vance went to the canvas for the
count.
The preliminary between Kid

an interest in boxing.
There was a fair crowd present
and all who saw the show went away

Peremptory Order
to Unload Cars at
Galveston, Texas

Washington, May 2S- Shippers
were warned by the interstate COM
merce commission today that they
must cooperate with the railroads
and the government in breaking the
freight jam. The notice was served
in the form of an order directing five
railroads entering Galveston, Texas,
to Immediately unload 200 cars of
grain, held in the yards there and to
restore the cars to service.
Although there was no official
announcement by the commission
that it would proceed along the
same course in other cities, such
suggestions have been made by rail-
road officials in objection to the use
of freight equipment for what they
describe as public warehouses"
Conditions prevailing in Galveston
railroad officials said are duplicated
in several other cities.
The railroads affected by the or
der today were instructed to remove
the grain, said to be nearly all wheat
to railroad or public warehouses
wherever accommodation could be
found. The unloading and storage
will be at the expense of the owners
of the shipments.
The commissions action indicated
also that shippers who ordered cars
would be required to load them
promptly and that no delay will be
tolerated on the part of the shipper
after the cars once are made avail
able to him.
