 With the colors this year come the ever new shades. We have known and loved kings blue and Chinese blue-how will Beauvais be received? :? Henna and rust are lovely in browns how will milady like ember? Petunia is soft purple, and among the favorites in greys is pelican. It isn't the only bird of color-for takes its place in this years attract- i've list.
 Among the handmade flowers of this season are some lovely white ones of a deep plush. These are cen- tered about stiff little jet stamens. A sort Of quill or feather effect was cleverly produced in raupe canton crepe chapeau. It had dashing wide brim effect. Across this and bound to it were tabs of the same like some new feather. The end of the spine wound round the round high crown, also canton crepe.
 In all this portrait gallery of au- tumn modes each woman will find some one hat that will exactly and charmingly frame her face. And not one hat. for she must have several to be appropriately dressed. A street hat is adaptable to many oc- casions. but it cannot usurp the place of a. dress hat, and a sports hat would indeed>appear ridiculous with an evening gown. Good taste is ex- acting its demands, and it cannot be ignored, no matter how free from l conventions we may believe our- I selves to be.
 l How well we women all know and feel the joy and self-respect thai comes of being quite positively sure we are correctly dressed!

The fan hat--how shall one por- tray 1t?
 A gallery of portraits are neces- sary to do justice to this autumn's variations of the mode. And not a gallery of old masters--nay, nay! To be sure. the modiste draws ever and anon fresh inspiration from his toric headgear, but what asks one, is more hopelessly out of date than . last years hat?
 What wonderfully fertile imagina- tions the milliners must possess to keep up so ga1lantly this work of ever-new creations! No sooner has one adjusted oneself to a vogue of one>material or feather than an en- tirely new idea In materials is thrust upon ones attention. And in hats, novelty is ceaseless.
 This season will launch attractive head-wear in grosgrain and moire ribbons, as well as duvetyn and all- feather hats. Satins. especially black, will be. worn and taffeta com bined with divetyn.
 The good old comfortable shapes such as the sailor and turban, will be with us again, as well as all the variations of the closefitting and off the-face hat
 Sports wear demands felt this year with the most original and unique decorations ever devised for the be- wilderment ofS the aGmir1ng male Colors know no limits. A single hal may vie with the rainbow. Cut-oui trimmings lined with a contrasting color are popular, as are also the cuhningest yarn flowers.

LOUISVILLE WINS
 ASSOCIATION FLAG

CHICAGO, Oct. 2-The American Association today closed what is de- clared by President T. ]. Hickey to have been the most successful year in it's history, not only from the club owners standpoint but from the pub lie standpoint.
 Louisville won the pennant in one of the closest races in many years, and all association attendance rec ords were broken. Mir. Hickey said in a statement tonight. Minneapolis finished second and Kansas City, third.
 The closeness of the race is shown by the fact that first and eighth place are separated in the percentage table by approximately only ITO points.

WITH EMPTY PISTOL
GIRL HALTS JAILBIRDS
SHERIFF HARVEY, OF SUMTER
COUNTY, IS ATTACKED BY
NEGRO PRISONERS.

AMERICUS, Ga.-A pretty girl,
peering resolutely along the barrel OF
an unloaded revolver, her Titan hair
just visible through window, back
ed by the sharp command, Throw up
your hands!" effectively stopped a jail
delivery here and probably saved the
life of Sheriff Lucius Harvey.
The young girl. whose heroism and
presence of mind forced the prisoners
back into their cells and gave the
sheriff time to recover his lost revolt
yer, was Miss Beaufort Harvey, OF
twenty summers and popular among
the wide circle of friends here.
Joe Hurley, in jail on a charge OF
bicycle stealing, attacked the sheriff
when he opened the door to the bull
pen," and another negro whose identi-
ty is uncertain, grabbed his pistol be-
fore the officer could defend himself.
Keys Scattered.
The jail keys carried by the sheriff
were scattered about the floor when
he was attacked.
After the first attack the sheriff be-
gan to shout to the negroes to get
back into the cells.
The commotion was heard across
the hall by Mrs. Harvey and her
daughter, Miss Beauford. While Mrs.
Harvey rushed to the opening through
which the food is handed into the jail
the daughter grabbed pistol lying
near and rushing on the rear porch
threw up a window opening from the
cell room and, thrusting the pistol
through the bars, commanded every
prisoner to throw up his hands.
Seeks Cover.
Her unexpected and dramatic ap-
pearance Sin the nick of time spoiled
the prisoners plot. Hurley hosting
his hands, ran to cover. All the
others quickly fled from the sheriff
back into the bull pen," leaving him
free to pick up his keys and again take
charge of the situation. Later his PTS
tol was found lying behind cell in
the corridor where it had been thrown
by the negro who seized it.

VETS AND DRYS AGAIN
PREPARING FOR WAR
NEW BATTLE BREWING OVER
USE OF BEER AS MEDICINE.
ANTI-BEER BILL PENDING.

Another death struggle between the
'wets" and "drys" of the country over
the use of beer and light wines for
medicinal purposes has begun. The ac-
ton of the treasury department in is
suing certain regulations permitting
physicians to prescribe beer or wine
for the sick has precipitated the trou-
bic.
Congress has under consideration a
bill which would wipe out those regu-
lations the instant the measure is pass
ed, which probably will be within a
few days. Then the controversy will
go to the courts of the land to deter
mine if the prohibition amendment to
the federal constitution intended to
prohibit the manufacture of intoxicat-
ing liquors ''for beverage purposes"
only.
Physicians Differ in Matter.
Some physicians have attacked the
so-called anti-beer bill now pending in
congress as dangerous, while others
have defended it as of no consequence
to the practice of medicine. Senator
Ball, of Delaware, himself physician,
has fought vehemently against the
measure, declaring that in his expert
ence the use of liquors had been of
considerable benefit to patients. Many
doctors, on the other hand, contend
that it is not.
The great question is whether the
anti-beer bill, which would amend the
Volstead act, is constitutional. Only
the supreme court of the United States
can decide that A test case will surely
be brought the moment the measure
has gone through congress.
