More Truth Than Poetry
By James j. Montague
COSTUME HISTORY

They're acting Shakespeares dramas
With very great success
In frock coats and pajamas
And other modern dress
The lines, with all their fire
More readily get by
When curious attire
Does not distract the eye.
Soon, turning back the pages
That history has filled
With tales of earlier ages
The reader will be thrilled
To see Greek maids arrayed in
Brocade and peau-de-soie,
And other fabrics made in
The shops of gay Paree.
The art of illustration
Still further will go on
Till, pausing at creation
The worlds first, Frightening dawn
Sweet Eve will be detected
In much the same array
AS that which is affected
BY ladies' of today.
Still, if abbreviations
Of garments hold their pace
And there are indications
That such will be the case
To dress in the attire
Her modern daughters don
The lady will require
To put but little on!

scene of a brutal attack near Provi-

While the funeral of the girl was

conducting the investigation here
were uncovering new clues. which
may aid in solving one of the most
battling murder mysteries Kentucky
has known in recent years.
Strength was added to the theory
originally advanced by police that the
couple were attacked with intent to
rob when it was learned that Miss de
Almond. on the night of the crime,
was wearing a wrist watch, which has
not been located since.
The most important clue yet un.
covered, however, in the opinion of
the investigating officers was a note

Automatic Flying
Plane Maintains
Own Equilibrium
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated freSs.
SPOKANE, Wash, August 81
Automatic flying, whereby the
equilibrium of an airplane is main
tanned without the direction of the
pilot, has been attained through
device invented by Capt. ii. j.
Taplin, formerly of Richmond,
Surrey. England. and now a resi-
dent of this city, the Spokesman
Review says.
The device has been given
thorough test by Capt. n. b. Nam
mer, a commercial aviator of this
city, the paper declares, and has
been pronounced entirely prac-
ticable.
Through the use of two vanes,
exposed to the wind currents and
connected to the control lever of
the airplane. an even keel is main
tanned on the straightaways, and
the machine is automatically bank
cd for a turn when the rudder is
set and straightens itself out when
the turn has been completed.
Operation of the throttle and the
rudder is all that is required of the

we trod silently. The elk was travelling
up wind, but slowly, stopping continually
to paw the ground and thrash the bushes
with his antlers. He was very noisy,
challenging every minute or two, being
doubtless much excited by the neighbor-
hood Of his rival on the mountain. We
followed, Woody leading, guided by the
incessant calling.
"It was very exciting as we crept to-
ward the great bull, and the challenge
sounded nearer and nearer. While we
were still at some distance the pealing
notes were like those of a bugle delivered
in two bars, first rising, then abruptly
falling; as we drew nearer they took on
hard squealing sound Each call made
our veins thrill; it sounded like the cry
Of some huge beast of prey. At last we
heard the roar Of the challenge not 30
yards off. Stealing forward three or four
yards, saw the tips Of the horns through
a mass Of dead timber and young growth,
and slipped to one side to get a clean
shot.
Seeing us but not making out what

we were, and full of fierce and insolent
excitement the Wapiti bull steppd boldly
toward us with stately swinging gait.
Then he stood motionless, facing US,
barely so yards away, his handsome 12-
tined antlers tossed aloft, as he held his
head with the lordly grace Of his kind.
I fired into his chest, and as he turned I
raced forward and shot him in the flank;
but the second bullet was not needed,
for the first wound was mortal and he
fell before going so yards,
'"The dead elk lay among the young
evergreens. The huge, shapely body was
set on legs that were as strong as steel
rods, and yet slender, clean, and smooth;
they were in color a beautiful dark
brown, contrasting well with the yellow
ish body. The neck and throat were
garnished with a name of long hair; the
symmetry Of the great horns set off the
fine, delicate lines Of the noble head. He
had been wallowing, as elk are fond of
doing, and the dried mud clung in
patches to his flank; a stab in the
haunch showed that he had been over
