DEMPSEY AND DOGS
REQUESTED TO MOVE

VENICE, Cal, Sept. 12.-Dog ken
nels here are as popular as mosquitoes.
So are dogs. Jack Dempsey is popu-
lar. But his dogs aren't. To keep a
kennel for the dogs requires a permit.
Mr.. Dempsey has been notified that he
can get a permit and it has been sug-
gested that he move to a kennel zone.
It's a dog-gone tough break for MI
Dempsey. Mr.. Dempsey is the world
heavyweight champ. But he is not
the worlds greatest diplomat. Inc
residents of Venice have told him so.

GERMANS REGAIN CONTROL
 OF ITALIAN TEXTILE MILLS

MILAN, Italy, Mar 9.-Germany which exercised a decisive economic influence in northern Italy before the war, is rapidly regaining it's ground in at least the textile indus try. It is understood that the nu- merous spinning mills in the neigh in the hands of German capital and that system of cheap Italian and skilled German labor on the product has been worked out by which cot ton and imitation silk goods yield handsome profits.
 The firms about Milan import their cotton from America and the yarn is spun by cheap Italian labor. The partly-fnished product is then sent to the textile concerns of middle Germany, chiefly in the neighbor- hood of Chemnitz, where certain processes requiring skilled labor, such as dyeing, are applied Then the almost-fnished product wanders back once more to Italy, from where it is sold. The combination of cheap Italian and skilled German labor enables the manufacturers to set up prices that can compete successfully with those of other countries.
 A large part of the product goes to Jugoslavia. The fact that the eX- porting country is Italy is an espe- cially favorable circumstance for the German owners, since Italy has a treaty with Jugoslavia by which her textiles enjoy advantages which are not extended to Germany.

BULGARIA GETS GLIMPSE
 OF BEAUTIFUL SULTANA

PHILIPPOLIS, Bulgaria, Mar. g. Nedig Evzad Hannum, the fifth and favorite wife of the deposed Khal- if. passed through the railroad sta tion here on the Simplon express the other day to join her husband the old Turk who is spending his de- clining days in Switzerland.
 Nedig, who took no pains to keep her face yelled as she leahed out of the window of her compartment at the station, is strikingly beautiful, with blue eyes at variance with the American idea of Orientals. She is just twenty years old. When the Sultan was deposed and banished last year, Mustapha Kemal refused to let Nedig join him in his exile. Ne dig Evzad Hanum, however, would not be permanently parted from the ex-Khalif, and she made So many personal applications to Mustapha Kemal for permission to join her husband in his punishment that he finally relented
 Nedig owes her blue eyes to hel Circassian origin.

FARCE ISLANDERS BUILDING
 SEVEN IMPROVED HARBORS

COPENHAGEN, Mar. 9.-No fewer than seven new harbors of varying sizes fand importance are now in course of construction in the Farce Islands. At Thorshavn, the capital of the islands, work on new har- bor comprising two quays protected by a breakwater 500 feet long is well advanced, and is expected to be completed at the end of next year.
 A more modest harbor nearing completion is a Skopen, the north west point of the island of Sandoe, and consists of an outer and inner mole which will afford shelter for fishing craft of small tonnage. The harbor will also serve as lifeboat station and emergency anchorage for vessels in danger at particularly treacherous part of the coast.
 Other harbors in course of erection are at Midvaag, Soervaag on the isl and of Vaagoe, and at Tveraa, Kvig- ig and Hoy.

WINDERNERE, Eng, Mar. g. The proprietor of a leading hotel in this district will sleep with one eye open for the future, since he was fined S25O and costs by the county court judge for failing to let trav- eler in the hotel for several hours one morning.
 The traveller told the court he was stranded through his baggage being lost and tried to obtain admission to the hotel at o'clock in the morn ing. It was after 2 when he got in and during the wait was exposed to rain and cold. The traveller said that he did not bring the action in a vindictive spirit, but wished to reg ister his protest against the proprie- tors refusal to extentain travellers and to show him that innkeepers had duty to the travelling public which they were bound to carry out.
 The court upheld his views and fined the proprietor.

eral. A man named Kutisker was a party to these transactions.
 Then almost over night the whole affair was given a new aspect. While Kutisker confessed to his irregu- lalities, it soon developed that there was concern which had apparently gone in for even wilder financing, the Barmat corporation. Kutisker was presented with an order for his arrest on Christmas Day, and the Barmat brothers received similar warrants as a New Years greeting, their arrest taking place on the af- telnoon Cf Dec. 31.
 The affiliations and friendships = the Barmat brothers are coming to light. The trail leads to the doors of prominent Socialists; a Commun- ist deputy and a Clerical deputy ap- pear to have been involved. and a cabinet minister resigned under the fire of charges in which the Barnats figured.
 Several different investigations al ready are under way, and the Bar. mat affair is being made the football of German politics. Charges that the S.ta,lsts were on close terms with the Barmats are matched by counter charges that Nationalist of ficials were so lax in their credit policy that millions of marks were loaned to them even after the Reichsbank had rigidly shut down on credits, and after rumors were current in exchange circles that not

BARMAT REVELATIONS
 THREATEN lPHEAVAL
 IN GERMAN POLITICS

BERLIN, Mar. 9.-Germany IS pay ing considerable attention just now to a financial scandal. It is called the Barmat affair, and is casting it's shadow over the political life of the country. Some high officials already are involved, and nobody knows who next will be dragged into the lime light. Public hearings are being held ill an endeavor to ascertain facts, and the trails evidently lead into more than one political camp.
 Four brothers of Russian birth, Julius, Solomon, Herschel and Isaac Barmat, came into Germany few years ago by way of Holland, vouch- ed for, it is alleged, by the German foreign office and certain prominent politicians. They formed company to import fats, but gradually branch ed out into banking, the buying up Of paper and artificial silk factories, iron and steel mills, sawmills and pottery works, and various other ac- tivities They prospered exceeding ly.
 Then some one started an investi- gation of the Prussian State Bank, one of the oldest financial institu- tions of Germany, as a result of which it was revealed that the bank had liabilities in excess of its capi- tai and reserve, and that it had loan ed large sums without proper collet-

UMBRELLAS TO MATCH HAT
 AND STOCKINGS LONDON FAD

LONDON, Mar 9.-One of the lat- est fads among fashionable young women is to choose an umbrella to match stockings and hat In this connection it may be said that the umbrella departments of the London shops are among the most colortuI branches of the business.
 Scarlet and emerald have proved thus far to be the most popular sol ors of all, but these shades are often overlooked by buyers who insist up on matching their hosiery and milli- nery even ii the protectors from the sun or rain have to be made to or der.
 As to colors generally, especially for women, modistes says that Lon don has never been as gay in this respect as it is today. Longer sticks are coming back into popular usage for umbrellas but on account of its convenience dealers say the short umbrella has come tO stay. Some of the handles of tl9 longer sticks are encrusted with colortul china beads, and are considered very et- fective, so far as the eye is conceln. ed, but from practical standpoint the beaded handled umbrellas are considered merely one of the early spring fads, which will soon pass, because the beads themselves fairly "eat'' away very quickly the palm ot the wearer's kid gloves.
