Indies was brought TO full stop and
so held for more than an hour BY the
violence of the wind Violent tempests
have been known at times to stop
trains if the wind is from the direction
in which the train is moving. and To
impede their speed if the wind TANKS
IL. Occasions when the wind has up
set trains are rare. Such an incident
occurred in France in 1868
The force Of the wind was more than
100 kilos per square metre, a pressure
the coaches were unable to withstand.
Almost at the same time, heavily
loaded freight train was brought to
standstsll, it being so weighted that,
on account OF the wind, force Of 254
kilos per square metre would have been
required to move it.
More recently the British board of
trade gave an account of a similar ac-
cident near INVERSION on the Furness
line The convoy was composed Of 10
coaches. and the travellers, numbered
a. The tempest was violent. After
several stops caused by telegraph, poles
being thrown on the track the train
was brought 10 standstill in an

During the reign of Charles III. the
Duke OF Monmouth, who fought and
lost at Sedgemoor, had mansion in
what is now known as Soho square.
The duke used as his watchword in
battle the cry, $50 Holr and uncon-
sciously bestowed the name upon the
whole district
Knightsbridge has an origin scarcely
less interesting. According to one his
torian, two knights in the middle ages
had quarrel when on their way to
Fulham palace. They decided on com

spanned the stream of the Westbourne.

watched by their partisans."

Shooting

Burlington, Oct. %. Adelino Men
dez, a private in the headquarters de

seventh field artillery, was arrested by
the authorities Saturday charged with
a felonious assault with dangerous
weapon on Mrs. Lila Tilleman Friday
night
Mrs. Tilleman was injured by shot
from an automatic pistol Friday eve

it was known that the weapon which
killed her was in the hands of soldier
the Burlington authorities brought the
matter to the attention of Captain
Batchelder, officer of the day at Fort
Ethan Allen.
He lined up the 300 soldiers at the
post who were carefully scrutinized by
William Coburn at whose home the
woman was shot He finally identified
Mendez as the man who was at his
house offering to sell the pistol
1t has been learned that Mendez has
an unenviable record. He enlisted in
the army at the age Of Is. claiming he
was 10 and gave an assumed name. He
has also made two appearances in court
and perhaps more. He at one time es-
caped from Shirley industrial school at
Shirley, Mass, where he was doing
time for breaking into store. The
gun which he was trying to sell and
which killed the woman. was stolen
from fellow soldier at the post.
The shooting is still claimed to have
been accidental. The woman, whose

Women Need Them to Drape Longer
Skirts Now in Fashion.

Because Of the tendency in women i
fashions TO longer. skirts, more dra-
peries and, as a whole, fancier clothes,
it is the feeling that very large de-
mand for ribbons will be the result.
While with many of the draped mod
els shown there is little or no oppor-
.tunity for sash, still some Of the
models are caught at one side with a
fiat knot Of very handsome ribbon,
which terminates in panels and forms
the new long lines at the side Of the
skirt.
II is to be noted in many Of the
frocks that, while ribbons have not
quite the same vogue as sasles, they
are being used more and more for pam
els. Very handsome wide brocaaes
sometimes form the front and back
panels of straight line frock, which is
completed by the use Of chiffon or some
other light fabric at the side
Many of the newest negligees are
built along these same lines. On some
of the street frocks and suits narrow
ribbons, combining tinsel with con-
trasting colors, have been used to EN-
broider motifs and designs, while on
evening dresses wide velvet ribbons AZ
well as silk and satin ribbons are used
in great rosettes and to form padded
girdles around the waist line of those
frocks which emphasize the very full
skirts.
Cirred ribbons, both in brown and
black, are practically stapled merchan-
