STYLES IN DRESS

New York. Feb. 9.-"Iatest
style in dogs" is the title given
the German police dogs by Dean
V. Horace Hoskins Of the New
York university veterinary col
lego, who says fashions in dogs
fiuctuatc as they do in dress.
The Boston terrier and the
'Pcktnesc arc also fashionable,
Dean Hoskins said.
'The Boston terrier has enjoy
ed y longer period of popularity
than any other dog, having been
in vogue for thirty years, and Is
still fairly popular" he said.
The pug dog and the old black
and tan, or rat terrier. which en-
joycd an immense popularity in
tho SOS and SOS arc almost ex-
tinct. and the dean said he knew
OF no one who still breeds them.
The elbows, which were favOritcs
in 1900 are well liked.
Dean Hoskins lamented the
passing of the collie, and regret
ted the current vogue for the po-
lice dog. saying he was not 50
gentle a companion as the collie.

Bismarck. n. D., Feb. eTho
break between A. c. Tow1Aey and
William Iemke. and other lead
ers of the Nonpartisan League in
North Dakota seems to be about
to grow into open warfare.
After Townlcy appeared before
the League caucus. and recon-.
mcndeti that the conditions for
the sale OF the state securities
suggested some weeks ago by the
state bankers committee be &C.
cCpted. the Courier News, the
League organ in Fargo. published
an article to the effect that e1ni-
saries OF the bankers had made
offers at the caucus. Since 1t Is
now pretty generally known that
Townlcy urged acceptance of the
bankers plan. this can only be
taken to mean that the former
league boss Is being charged with
ha wing boosted the bankers game

ToWnley left Bismarck Sunday
night. and is understood to have
washed his hands Of tho entire

appears to have accepted defeat AT

who are said to have practically
refused to rtcngnize that the ma

What is regarded as most sig

The casting director of well known film company, who is re- nowned for his accuracy in selecting screen types true to fife, recently over a hundred ambitious but untal- ented character types awaited his approval. Upon his entrance. cow boys bred in the Bronx, possessorS of ''soup and fish, doll faced debutan- tes with moth eaten frocls, collegiate looking gunmen, meek-eyed roues and soldiers of fortune from every borough frightened and cast shy glances at the man who for many was to determine if they were 10 eat the following day.
