BERLIN, Feb. 20.-Prussia Is 60
ing through the first test of Its
democracy today in the election of
the first regular Prussian pariia-
ment under the republican govern
ment. The new parliament is to
replace the provisional constitu-
tional assembly.
The first regular election is ex-
pected to show that the new repub-
lican coat of state does not 1T the
people comfortably. General predic-
tions incline to the belief that there
will be a shift to the right with
considerable conservative gains and
a cutting down of the Social Demo-
cratic membership in parliament.
The election corresponds to the
State elections in America, more
particularly like New York, or as
New York would be II Il was an
Overwhelmingly dominant State and
running the country as Prussia
runs Germany.
From the extreme radicals to the
reactionary elements there is bitter
complaint of the apathy and indif-
ference Of the people. In fact they
take so little interest compared to
the interest in an American election
day, that so far the campaign has
been extremely tame. Efforts are
being made today by the different
parties to get out the voters and
but for the fact that the election
Is held on Sunday a much smaller
percentage would go to the polls.
Women Uninterested.
Women, upon whom suffrage was
thrust by the revolution, evinced a
relatively small interest in the cam
paign. That the Prussian masses
do not yet thoroughly understand
their new system and feel strangely
toward it is plainly evident on
every hand.
The campaign is practically with
out any real issues. The extreme
radicals want Communism and al
lance with Russia. The Social
Democrats. whose passive negative
policy would turn Germany into a
pacifistic European China, have

The. Democratic party, which lost

against that party.

PLANS SURPRISE
in HATFIELD CASE
State to Train Big Guns on

WILLIAMSON, w. VA. Feb. 90
The prosecution is expected to hre

week in the trial of Sid Hatfield
and eighteen others charged with
the murder of Albert Felts.

The belief was expressed that
further indictments in the Matewan
murder case will follow.

When the Commonwealth of West
Virginia presents its case to the
jury 1t will ask for a verdict of
acquittal for one of the nineteen ac-
cused. The original intention was
to nolle the indictment against this
defendant, but the moment the jury
was sworn and his life placed in
jeopardy that course became i'm
possible. The State will tell the
jurors that IL has been unable to

Of proving a conspiracy on the part
of the defendants the prosecution
emphasized that such a crime can
be proved by circumstantial evil

The correspondent learned to-
night that the State expects to pro-
duce witnesses who saw the fol-
lowing men shoot at the Baldwin

Sid Hatfield. Bowser Coleman
Doug Mounts. Van Clay, william
Bowman, Reese Chambers, Glare

Resentment over the evictions Of

by the State as the basic motive Of
the alleged conspiracy.

The young man laughed. "Why

Don't be alarmed by my daugh-
ter's fancies," Kelso advised. "They
are often rather astonishing"
So Mr.. Eliphalet Biggs met the
pretty daughter of Jack Kelso. On
his way back to the tavern he told
Ann that he had fallen in love with
the sweetest and prettiest girl in all
the world-Bim Kelso. That very
evening Ann went over to Kelso's

Mrs. Kelso laughed. Its funny to
hear baby talking like that" she
said. "We don't know this young man.
He's probably only fOoling, anyway"
BIN went often to the little tavern
after that. OF those meetings little is
known, save that, with all the pretty
arts of the cavalier, unknown to Harry
Needles. the handsome youth flattered
and delighted the girl. This went on
day by day for fortnight. The eve
ming before Biggs was to leave for his
home. BIN went over to eat supper
with Ann at the tavern.
It happened that Jack Kelso had
found Abe sitting alone with his
Blackstone in Offut's store that after
noon.
"Mr. Kelso, did you ever hear what

Costume Dress

not always coats, indeed, but often
they are capes. But always they are
suited most particularly to the de-
mands Of the particular wearer, and
always they refuse to be anything or
dinary or common, else at once they
lose that which makes them what they
are.
The skirts? Well, the skirts of these
costumes just as is the case with
skirts OF all other sorts of dresses are
in state of very decided fluctuation.
At the moment they can be almost
any length that suits the individual
taste, but one senses a time to come
when they will be long or not In the
running at all. Now one sees skirts
that are very short beside skirts that
are unusually long and each Of them
has style, undoubtedly because they

happen to suit the wearer admirably.
But how long this state of affairs will
persist is really mystery, and those
who are wise will have the hens of
their gowns made as adjustable as
the length can be added to without
any hurt to the lines or proportions
of the suit
Flat one-Piece Effect.
One of these combinations was a
frock made of tobacco-brown chiffon.
that was draped and folded quite
miraculously so that it looked In its
entirety like fiat One-piece effect.
There was no trimming of any sort
upon the gown, even the edges being
bound with narrow bindings and
picoted as their character demanded.
Then the coat wrap was made of silk
duvetyn in exactly the same shade,
with that added warmth and richness
that naturally accompanies the pile
fabric. There were standing collar
and very wide cuffs of brown dyed
squirrel and little toque hat of the
same fur made with a fluted ribbon
trimming. 1t was a most attractive
suit and, as the coat was well inter-
lined beneath the last chiffon layer,
it became thing suited to Withstand
any sort of cold weather and so light
that no one could regret having to
wear it.
Some of the coats on these three
piece or costume suits are cut with ex-
tremely long waists and circular
skirts. One Of these, imported from
Paris, is made of heavy black tailOr's
satin. 1t has trimmings of gray wolf
put on in narrow bands and the front
Of the skirt is slightly draped so that
front, clasped by Dutch silver clasp.
There is black satin dress designed
to wear with this, and it is artistically
combined with black chiffon, so that
the thinner material is used every time
to form those floating, capey appen-
dages which are so necessary q part
of the modern gown.
Collars Are High.
All of the collars are high Some
times, as a concession, they slide
away into collars that end at the
waistline and fold gracefully about
the throat when the weather demands
that extra sort of protection. But al
most always they are straight and
high like cuff posed on the neck.
They reach the mouth or cover the
mouth and they crush down around
the neck until there is quite bunch
of fur massed there. But this Is the
fashion, and If ones neck rebels at all
the covering, then real herOism is the
only answer, for wrappy and thick the
collar must be If 1t Is to have the
remotest relation to style. And 1t
cannot stand away from the head
about the shoulders as 1t was allowed
to do last season. 1t must be tight
and hugglng In its manner. These
styles make one pray for cold win
ter. for they only appear at their best
when they are buttoned closely about
the throat.
The Snowflake herald., 1921-11-04

The costume dress Is really the evo-
luton Of the three-piece dress. just
recently, observes fashion writer,
we had the coat and skirt and the
costume blouse as the all-around, sat
isfactory winter utility dress. Before
that even 1t was the coat and the
skirt and the shirtwaist. But now 1t
is q dress and coat to go with IL
that is chosen by the woman VINO
knows how to be smartly as well as
comfortably gowned.
The dress can be as ladylike as you
please, or as tailored as you please,
or even an absolutely clinging one.
But the coat comes along to cover IL
all and to make q casual observer be-
lieve that the coat is the salient fea-
ture of the whole. The outer garment
hides the inner one so gracefully tnat
1t succeeds In concentrating all atten-
tion upon itself and in putting over
the idea that nothing that turks De-
meath it could touch it for style or for
beauty. Then, presto! when the coat
Is laid aside the dress is so lovely ana
so well designed that it Immediately
makes one think, "Why Is all this
glory hidden away? 1t should be al
lowed to show it's face even when the
coat is buttoned into place"
But no, that is the art Of the thing.
1t is two separate and distinct sorts
of beauty and style, each as perfect
in it's way as is the other one. one
is built distinctly for the street, while
the other is designed just as clearly
and cleverly for the house and each
fulfills it's place with distinction,
and when they are joined together
they become just as perfect whole
as one could hope to find in any union.
The skirt Of the dress usually peeps
out from a coat that is three-quarters
in length, though this is not by any
means the all-pervading rule.
Vyinq for Success.
The French designers are making
these winter gowns de luxe and so
are the American ones, each class W.
ing with the other to make the most
successful and acceptable things.
They are not confined to the dressy
type of dress any more than they
are relegated In the class where only
strictly tailored things are good. But
when they do not just naturally
slide into either of these well-defined
types then they combine something of
one with something of the other to
degree which is usually decidedly
pleasing. Indeed, there is no doubt
that whatever may be the needs Of the
individual woman, there still will be
a costume dress tO suit those needs.
And, also. she can find this pleasant
combination of coat and suit at almost
any shop, from the highest priced to
the lowest priced, since the idea has
been so heartily accepted by all who
are concerned in providing clothes that
will really be satisfactory In every
way and suited to the majority of the
demands of heavy social or business
season.
Fur Trimming in High Favor.
Fur, of course, is the most accepted
trimming, for a winter street suit of
any sort needs that to make 1t pos
sible. It must be warm, and extra
