Community Parties Very Successful

The recent out of door dances held on the play ground green have proved so popular, that what was tried in the nature of an experiment is to be continued as a mid summer Saturday evening feature.
 The postponement of the last dance made necessary by the un- favorable weather of last Wednesday evening did not seem to interfere with it's success the next evening, except that few out of town friends came, and it was impossible for the hand to be on hand for it's share of t!!e program. Those who enjoy danc- ing were enthusiastic over the hIC new ballroom canvass which was stretched tight over the tennis court and then waxed. All agreed that dancing, considered by many in Ca naan to be the king of indoor sports, has an added charm when, of a sum mer evening, it can be indulged un- der the open sky.
 Hence until further notice a series cf Saturday evening open air dances will be held at the play groand which it is hoped may partake of the same community character which has been noticeable at the two all ready held. It is obvious that the success of these functions depends completely upon favorable weather conditions, and it will be understood that in case the weather man does not cooperate the dance will have to be omitted.
 The next dance will be held on the coming Saturday evening and for this occasion a charge of 50 cents each will be made to those dancing, while there will be no charge for admission to the grounds and free parking privileges will be extended to automobiles. Certain benches will be reserved for the use of dancers, and others, as far as they go, will be available for those who wish to look on
 Kegler and Keenan will furnish the music as heretofore.
 For lovers of the dance this an- nouncement should be especially welcome in that the series of dances which has been Saturday evening , attraction in the Town Hall will be discontinued.

Matching Up Sable skins.

In the critical eyes of the furrier there is a great deal of difference iD skins of animals of the same species. For instance, 1t takes hundreds of sable skins to make a long wrap, and because the fur on the under side of the animal Is always thinner than on top, the sides of the belts must be tucked and sewn together in many small seams to give the fur a uniform thickness. A fur cloak costing thous- ands of dollars is entirely the work of experts.

WifeIy Requirements.

The Spaniards have a saying that a wife should resemble three things, anG yet differ from these same things First, she should be like a snail, which always guards it's house, but she should not carry the house with her whenever she goes out. Second. she should be like an echo. which speaks only after the other is finished, but she should not always have the last word, and last, she should be like the town clock, which always sounds the hours with regularity, but she should not sound so loud that the whole town shall hear it.

ATAMAN GENERAL
J. VIOLATES ORDERS
Japanese Officers Who Assisted Him
to Escape Are to Be Punished.

VLADIVOSTOK, Aug. General
Semienoff, whose officers recently pro-
claimed him supreme ruler of Siberia,
made his mysterious getaway" from
Vladivostok by hiding on the bottom Of
motor car which was escorted by
two automobiles containing Japanese
soldiers and arms, according to state
ment issued by the press bureau of the
Vladivostok government.
The statement continued: THE pres
ence of the armed Japanese guard pre-
vented the Kappel forces from detain-
ing Ataman Semienoff. Information
has been received recently that Semie-
noff had arrived at Nikolsk, and is
staying at the headquarters of one of
his detachments.
1T is reported from authoritative
sources that Semiencff intends to pro-
claim himself supreme ruler of the
Maritime provinces, to establish a
government. of his own, to requisition
all government stores and goods, and
to control the railway traffic to Grod-
ekovo. The Maritime government is
indignant with the Ataman for his
flight and had decided to summon him
to a court trial for leaving Vladivos-

tok wilfully and going to Grodekovo,
in spite of the fact that he was strict
ly forbidden by the government.
1.-The Maritime government believes
that the Ataman was rendered assist
ance in his escape by some officers
who are supposed to be japanese, with
out the consent or knowledge of the
Japanese command. Being asked about
tn attitude of the Japanese command
with regard to Semienoff's flight,
Captain Fakuda, a member of the
Japanese military mission. said the
japanese command advised the Alta
man not to violate the governments
orders. The japanese command did
not render any assistance to Semienoff
in his flight, and was informed about
the Ataman's departure only when he
had left the city.
In view of the persistent rumors be-
ing circulated in Vladivostok to the
effect that the Japanese command as
sisted the Ataman in his flight with
the help of some Japanese officers, the
Japanese command is making investi
cations about the matter. If the ru
mors prove to be true, the guilty off,

the attention OF Dante Gabriel Rossetti,
the English poet and painter, who in

with the poet for some time. In fact, his
first published work was 'Recollections
Of Rossetti' issued in 1882. Three years
later his first novel, THE Shadow of a
Crime" was accepted and published. Ten
other works, all widely known and read,

FAMOUS AUTHOR

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. Sir Hall
Game. the world famous novelist, has
written his last book, according to word
recently received here from London, En-
gland, the home of the author. No reason
is given as to the cause OF his decision
TO retire from active literary work, but
the fact that it is thirty years since
his first fiction work appeared, probably
has something to do with his desire 10

Gently finished the manuscript of his

novel. THE Master of Man" which is
shortly to be simultaneously published all
over the world. He has expressed the
hope that II may be universally acclaimed
las his masterpiece. Those few who have
been privileged to read the completed
work say that the author need have no
doubt on this sc2re.
In a recent letter to friend here. Sir
Hall says:
LAS It is not unlikely that The Master
OF Man will he my last novel. 1 am the
more anxious that should end at my
utmost and best"
Early in 1914, Sir Hall showed friend
the scenario OF his latest work. ct will
be remembered he ceased work during the
entire four and half years of the war;
II was almost as big rs the completed
manuscript. Several other scenarios We're
prepared almost equal to the original in
length. And this before a single line
of tho actual story was committed to

care which the novelist bestows upon
