ROPE SUPERIOR TO LEATHER
Fibrous Material Rapidly Supplanting
Betting in American and Euro
pean Mills and Factories.

For 20 years there has been an In
creasing use in this country of manila
rope for power transmission in mills
and factories in place of leather Delt-
ing. In English factories ropes super
seeded betting long ago, and their use
is nearly universal. In the United
States the change that has taken place
began with the acquisition Of the Phil
ippine islands, where, as everybody
knows, the Manila hemp fiourishes.
The fiber Of the hemp varies in length
from to II feet, and occasionally at
tains a length Of 10 feet. It Is said
to possess greater tensile strength
than any other fiber known, exceed
ing $4,000 pounds per square inch.
Rope drives, as transmission ropes are
called, possess the advantage Of noise
lessness, owing to their flexibility and
tt the existence of an air passage In
the grooves between the rope and the
sheath.

IN DRAPED EFFECT
Improvement on Ultra Decollete
Dresses Is Manifest.
Dinner Gowns Cling at Hem, While
They Are Full over
the Hips.

H.. 1t Is very interesting, writes Parls
fashion correspondent, to note what
Worth is doing with regard to eve
hing dresses this season. This mai
son has always been celebrated for It's
gorgeous dinner gowns and tOilettes
for ceremonious occasions. 1t is not
here that one looks for eccentric MOD
els nor for sensational displays. Dut
Worth sets the styles for women OF
refined taste, and so it is necessary to
look closely at what he designs.
This season he Is showing very love
iy dinner gowns which have draped
effect. Several of his best models
seem to cling at the hem while they
are full over the hips. In some cases
there is distinct train, cut in with
the dress itself.
This is a welcome innovation, and
one which likely will prove very popu-
lar. For a long time past nearly all
our evening trains have been separate
from the dress-arranged in SCARF
fashion and often in twin-form-one
at either side. Or we have had court
trains-these chiefly for wedding
dresses. But it is evident that Worth
intends to revive genuine trains, cut
with the dress and forming part of 1t.
Trains of this order are specially
suitable for matrons or for women OF
full figure. SThe picturesque scarf
train is also much in evidence, but 1t
will no longer be considered the only
possible.
One model represents some of the
latest ideas of the Maison Worth: ex-
auisite materials skillfully manipulate

NEW CHECKED SILK TAFFETAS
Garment Is Made Up in Quaint style
with snugIy Draped Bodice and
Full Tunic.

The new checked silk taffetas are
made I'D in a variety of ways, among
which is a quaint frOck with snugly
draped bodice and full tunic edged
with frayed ruffes Of the material
and puffed at the hips. Another
pretty dress In brown check taffeta
Is made with finely plated skirt.
The full skirt and tunic on some Of
the dresses are trimmed with cOrding.
For instance, a navy blue taffeta
dress has many rows Of cOrding at
the hips and around the lower edge
of the wide tunic.
Pin tucks, finely grouped, pro-
vide a decorative touch for dress of
navy taffeta, with straight hanging
bodice and full skirt, in which the
tucks appear as vertical stripes.
There is no belt, but the fullness
IS tied at the sides. The three-quar-
Ter sleeves are finished with a pun
of the material over an undersleeVe
of cream lace.

HAT SHOULD SUIT THE FACE
Woman Who Has Passed Prime Knows
There Is Certain Type She
Should Wear.

"The vintage of 1907" teacher
said the other day In referring to her
hat, which some one had been admir-
ing for, having bought a good hat IN
that far-off time, she has 1t renovated
and renewed every winter. One merit
that the hat possesses is that 1t hts
and suits her style, for 1t becomes
more and more difficult for woraen
who have passed their first youth to
flnd hats that are suited" to them. A
favorite milliner makes the same hat
over year after year and, while 1t new
err loses its look Of smartness, 1t Is not
in the style. But the woman who mas
passed her prime knows that there Is
a certain kind of hat that she must
wear. Mrs. Harding is said to nave
adopted almost exclusively the tricon
shape, which is a very GOOD nat
for a woman Of her age. One Will nno
that the best-dressed women are those
who wear hats that are becoming TO
them and do not trouble about the
latest fashion. The milliner who re-
Allies this will not try to persuade the
woman of middle age to wear any OF
the stylish" shapes. Can one con-
ceive of anything more pathetic than
q woman Of middle age with tam-o-
shanter perched coquettishly upon her
hair, unless it happens that the tam"
is the only style that Is really becom-
ing to her?

Decorative and Useful.

Unusually attractive is a set Of
boudoir candlesticks Of blue iris and
rose iris heavy glass. Candles can be

Autos Heavy Toll Of Death.

According to statistics compiled by
the National Safety council, three
times as many people are being killed
by automobiles as in all the factories,
mines, railroads and other industries
in America. The annual toll of auto
mobile accidents at grade crossings
averages 1000 persons killed and 5000
injured.

Ostrich Toque.

The lovely ostrich toques are quite
bewitching when worn over young

and fluffy in appearance. They are
especially pretty In gray.

ed; a gorgeous simplicity welded to
extravaganza of detail.
The corsage of this model Is worthy
of close attention; this is the latest

have had with us so long.

An Attractive Well.

An attractive new veil is a fine,

hat. 1t is worn with a plain hat.

STATE WILL CONTINUE
TO PROSECUTE HOBOES

What is the attitude of this office
in regard to continuing the prosecu-
tion of offenders who steal rides on
trains while the railroads. special
agents free those men who can and
will buy tickets and turn over to the
county the men who are without
funds?"
This question was asked at the Of
flee Of the district attorney this morn
ing and the attitude of the district at
torney was expressed as follows:
THE governor has urged that the
state law covering this offense be en-
forced. As long as the order stands,
il is our business to enforce it,"
Criticism of the attitude of the rail-
road operatives in freeing the men
who purchase tickets and letting the
county keep the ones who are broke
and can't buy, was made yesterday by
Justice Joe H. Parkes
1T seems to me that it is not right
for the county to receive This sort of
a deal" Justice Parkes said. at does

ing the charter restriction of the II
mill levy in addition.
Any addition to the regular levy,
which may be voted for single year
cannot be considered as the basis of
computing the following years levy,
City Attorney Warner declared. In
other words. the extra taxes being
asked this year must be deducted from
the total before the six per cent in
crease for next year can be figured.
Sewage Disposal Is Problem.
The problem of disposing of Pen
dleton's sewage in a legal and sani-
tary manner is one which has Vexed
administrations for many years. At
present, the sewage goes into the riv-
er in a raw state. This is contrary to
state law, and the wrath of the state
health department has been incurred
repeatedly, but no prosecutions have
ever been made because the city has
always been on the verge of solving
the problem. Walla Walla, in a sim
lar situation, has recently been sued
for $S,OOO,OO0 by property owners.
The construction of a sewage plant
calls first for a satisfactory site. A
verbal agreement has been made
whereby property can be secured in
the west end for this purpose Two
tracts of land, toIaling about 25 acres
can be purchased for approximately
$4,000. One of the tracts belong
ing to Barney Doherty, has improve
ments on it.
The cost Of the septic tank itself
according to the estimates of Barr
and Cunningham, consulting engi-
neers will be $65,000. In addition to
