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

artistic energy to decorating this pretty

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.

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. Janan demand r na
tation, and makes the Impossible de
mand that her Immigrants nhnll ha i.
lowed free access. oTven the fmnnhi
and placed on completi eaualitv with
the white man.
hlle negotiations are sunnnsed t
be proceeding, the Japanese admiral on
the China station Informs the RrlUsh
commander that "war was decln rH
I and attacks and destroys the British
fleet. 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.
