BY NEWTON c. PARKE.

Paris, April 2l.-Women OF the
Russian nobility, wives OF high Off
GERS in the late cars armies and
noted beauties of the Petrograd
court are now working as mllliners'
assistants at few dollars a week,
shop clerks and even as chamber
maids in Paris to keep from starva-
ton.
A group OF French and Russian
women which is trying to raise
funds for their assistance made this
fact known today. Several of these
women agreed to permit their names
and their present occupations to be
made public in order to help the
campaign for the relief of others
who are absolutely penniless and
living on charity.
Madame Danilov, wife Of General
Danilov, chief of staff of one of the
cars armies and who disappeared
after the bolshevik revolution, has
just obtained permanent place as
domestic in a wealthy French fam
lily after weeks of weary search. She
receives SIS week, in addition to
her board and a small bedroom on
the top floor of the mansion where
she is employed.
Madame Danilov was wealthy in
her own name before she married
the general. She possessed several
automobiles and derived a big in
come from gold mines in Siberia.
When the revolution came she fled
Russia and made her way to Paris.
Her funds soon gave out and she
obtained employment in millinery
shop that sold cheap hats to shop
girls. A few weeks ago when busi
ness was slack she was discharged.

Honolulu All
Worked edUpOver
Bathing Suit Bill
Measure in Hawiian Senate
Would Make 1t Unlaw.
full to Promenade In
Town.

Honolulu, Hawaii, May 2l.-Not
since the day when Alice Roosevelt,
now Mrs. Nicholas Longworth,
shocked high society of Honolulu by
traversing the city from Waikiki
beach in her bathing suit and appear
ing in that garb at an afternoon tea
has the metropolis of Hawaii been so
wrought up as at present when the
territorial legislature is battling over
a bathing suit" bill which will COM
pei the wearing of bathrobes over
the abbreviated garments on the
public highways.
The bill, introduced by a senator
from the island of Hawaii, 200 miles
from Honolulu, provides that only
on the shimmcring sands, and within
a certain reasonable distance from
the water, shall the human figure
be seen adorned only in the garb
of Annette Kellermann. The bill
does not dictate the nature OF ;he
bathing suit nor endeavor to provide
how much it must cover the body,
but it does stipulate that it shall not
be worn as a street dress.
The proposed law has been
brought about by complaints, so its
author has told the senate, that both
men and women, boys and girls, al
legged vampires and so-called FLAP
pers" are wont to disrobe at their
homes or hotels as far away from
the beach as two or three miles, and
then, garbed only in one-piece bath
ing suits, amble leisurely along the
broad highway to the sands of
Waikiki. The bill allows for the
donning of the bathing suit at any
point in the city the bather desires,
but it insists that on the promenade
across the city to the beach full
length bathrobe, or other over-gar-
ment, must be worn.
But the bill is not receiving the
dignity -the senator from Hawaii in
sists upon 1t is being battered about
from pillar to post in the senate.
The last heard of it reference to the
educational committee" had been
moved and carried.
1t. might be added that the author
of the bill is minister of the gospel.

Syracuse, N. Y, May 2l.--Harry
Clark Crankshaw, with a record of
three divorces and Mary Ethel
Ewing, with two divorces to her
credit went to the Rev. Dr. Fred

to City Clerk Kennedy he expressed
his sentiments.
He wrote on the bottom OF the

he had the right to administer at

Misfiring at Low Speed

Poor engine operation at low
speeds is common complaint, with
the usual cause in the carburetion
system. Often an air leak throws out
the carburetor adjustment so that
an insufficient amount of fuel is fed.
Wide spark plug gaps with a mag
neto having weak magnets is COM
bination which may induce this same
trouble. With a battery system in
use the ignition may be neglected
until the carburetion system has been
attended to, and if this fails to locate
the trouble the ignition should then
be overhauled

OPERATIVE SYSTEM
Great Interest Attached to Visit Of
Judge Robert W. Bingham and
Aaron Saplro to Maysyllle-
Bankers TO Hear Plan.

The majority of the local tobacco
men who have studied the cooperative
marketing plan for Burley tobacco as
suggested by Aaron Sapiro, expert
from the California cooperative mar
keting associations, have given the
plan their endorsement and believe
with other prominent tobacco men and
bankers throughout Kentucky that Mr.
Sapiro's plan is the solution Of the
tobacco problem for Kentucky.
Judge Robert w. Bingham, editor
Of the Courier-Journal and Times at
Louisville, will come to Maysville on
next Wednesday to address the bank
ers of the Sixth and Ninth Congress
sional districts who meet here in con-
vention at Beechwood Park and pre-
sent the plan in detail. At quite a
number of the district bankers con-
ventions throughout the state this
summer the system has been endorsed
by the bankers and there is therefore
much interest attached to the visit Of
Judge Bingham here.
In addition to addressing the bank
ers, Judge Bingham will confer with
representatives of the tobacco grow
ers from each precinct in the county
and later in the summer Mr.. Sapiro,
the author fthe plan, will address
the farmers of the county in a mass
meeting.

door, he fired two shots through the
door and struck Bertram, who was a
brother-in-law Of John McKellup, and
who had come there to leave his house
