Connelly, foreman of the graders at Rose City Park, hat Invented a scraper that beats any ( thing that has been tried In Portland for removing dirt and leveling lots. The scraper works In such a . manner as to require no shoveling by hand after the scraping work Is done. The dirt Is carried by an end , less chain Into a wagon that drives alongside the machine. Mr. Connelly Is Justly proud of his invention. PITTSBURG DAZZircP iPeggy Gillespie Itevolution- izes Fashions "With Her ; Greek Draperies. , '. (SpMlil DlaMteb to Th IootbU.) Paris, April 1. An American girl it th talk of Paris. By ber eccentricities ,and xtravsganc she has literally dai sied the cynical city. Miss Peggy Gil lespie, though introduced under high auspices le New York society, did not achieve success until she came to Parii. Moreover, she ha . appeared on the stacs of be native city, Pittsburg, where she was one the wife of Oeorge Maclelland, without securing any astonishing eclat. In Paris Miss Gillespie has absolute ly revolutionised the style of women's dreas by introducing the sleeveless gown, Greek tunics and flowing draper lea on antique llnea. The Gillespie fash ions are so radical that they have come on slowly here as they are also In London and nnv Within two weeks scores of . American dressmakers and buyers will sail for New York, carrying the Gillespie model. Miss Perrv la lithe snd thin, with a pretty, Imoertlnent face and breesy middle west manners. Upon her arrival in Paris she attracted the attention of Henri L.ettelller, son of the proprietor of the lead In a- Paris newspaper, Le Journal. He Is also a millionaire ama teur artist of exquisite talent, and ut away his canvas and devote-! his whole artistic energy to decorating this pretty rnitsDurs sin. it is ne woo designs an her marvelous costumes. He spenda hours dally poring over old prints and picture books seeking suggestions In dress. He paints his designs in water colors and then has them copied by great dressmakers. Letelliar Invents even special fabrics and colors. It waa he who designed the Russian toque worn last autumn, and taught Peggy the proper angle at which to cock it on her head. Bo far this spring, in addition to re viving the Greek tunic. Miss Gillespie has taught lashlonable women to dis card underwear, the only undergar ments permitted oelng tight-fitting satin trousers, with diamond buckles at the knee. The garments, though originated Approved 4000 Times by M. Letellier, are known as Pery Gillespie's, and sre almost universally worn by smart women. Miss Gillespie has also given the 'death-blow to big hats. Hers are in small form snd are called the Charlotte hat this aeason. They sre siways of the same form, whether In felt feathera, straw or silk. is Gillespie has s, villa at Nice, and In Paris lives at the Hotel Scribe. Though now furnishing a house with slow accumulations of antique furni ture, she remarks modestly tnat since coming to Paris she hsa saved J3,000. and hopes some day to go ba:k to Pitts burg.

Main 6688, A-5517 lor Information PorUand Railway, light & Power Company London, April J.The author of the famous "War of the Future." the late Jean ds Blach, Insisted that an upris ing; of the socialistic proletariat would bring; the next great world-war to an inconclusive close. A book is published here which adopts that opinion, and Is Interesting- In yet another sense because it Illustrates the growing disillusion ment of England with the too obtrusive success of her ally, Japan. "The World's Awakening" purports to be a scientific military novel. It de scribes a War which breaks out in 1820 between England and Japan, and soon Involves France, Germany and the United States. The anonvmoua anihnr explains that the Ana-lo-Japanese alll- ance was not renewed In 1915 mainly owing to the opposition of Australia, wnicn nates and dreads Japan, and threatens to "cut the nalntr" unl. the alliance is at once dissolved. It is Australia that hrln firs (in 1 Armageddon. Durins- n rnuriHn of Japan's fleet to Sydney, the Austra lian mob shows Its feeling toward the visitors by attacking their mobbinjr the local jiiuhmu rin. i ne Japanese admiral opens fire on the town and occupies It. Negotiations en sue with England.

Port Arthur fashion. Japan scores everywhere. Hh inrite , Hindus to revolt, and intrigues an in-' surrectlon in Cairo. A rebellion against American rule breaks out In the Phllin- pines, which proves to be the result of a Japanese plot. Japan soon shows her hand, lands troops, defeats an American force and makes no concealment nf her determination to seize the Islands and keep them. Germany and France meantime come to blows, and Germany is discomfited. America declares that she will Drose- cute hostilities with Japan at all costs, and will under no circumstances sur render the Philippines. The war con tinues indecisively. But the proletariat of the world knows no indecision. The proletariat J has decided that the war shall not oon- ! tlnue. Anti-war strikes and riots begin I in England, and make it imnosslhln to ! continue the fight. Russia and Italy oner to Intervene, and the war comes to a sudden end with an appeal to The Hague tribunal. "The World's Awakening" Is onlv one or many nooKs on ruture wars which have appeared in England during the past few years. But It is very signifi cant that its author selects Japan as the great enemy of the world's Deace. No Englishman who wanted a sale for his book would have made suah a choice even a year ago. It is still more significant that the Armageddon should be ended by a peace-loving proletariat on the lines laid down br De Bloch. t Inaugurating the most wonderful money-saving sale Portland - - FURNITURE BUYERS ever witnessed We must have room for several carloads of new Furniture and have big bargains in every department.
