London, Jan. 1. Perhaps the wildr est adventures of the war are those attributed to the Cossacks.1 They take war aa a sport, and are corresponding ly reckless. They nave a - supersti tion against surrendering and against losing their lance or-their- horse. A correspondent of the Dally Graph ic sends some remarkable stories of these strange horsemen, who are well drilled, he finds. To their immemorial boldness and: wiiiness they have now added drill and science, arid they are much more effective than in the Japa nese war. He says: . j j "Greatest of all Cossacks Is Michail Fllimonoff, who is with the invaders ot Galicla. Filimonoff is a striking' figure. Jle sits his horse like a Petro grad , bank ' clerk, but his leadership beats. De Wet's. On the day. he was givea command of a little reconnoiter ing force of 25 men Filimonoff dis persed or captured four Austrian out posts or detachments. All outnum bered his force. I For that he was pro moted to "khorunjl" and given the St. George's cross. . Swims Stream for Kelp. ''He has done' all wild things since. Near Przemysl he held up an Austrian convoy and captured 200 wagons of grain1 and coal. When, a few days later,' his force was surrounded, be saved it by himself diving into a stream and racing for help. Filimon off 's ruses are ' surprising. He dis guised himself and some of his men as peasants, and thereby got valuable information. The Cossacks take the war as sport. Lately I visited the Vistula1 south of Warsaw and saw at AMERICAN FASHIONS A dainty evening frock in White . and orchid. , By Lillian J3. Young. We are -always, glad when somebody thinks of something: new and places it within our reach on the market. This refers most particularly to dress fab rics, for when the same old materials are on. hand, season after season; with out variety, it is monotonous to a de gree to see the gowns and frocks of all occasions built of the same stereotyped materials in each and every case. For this reason we welcome all such new weaves, as satin d'amour, Georg ette crepe, libellule taffetas, peau de chat, wool crepon, faille, and many others. With these and many new colors on the list one should' be satis fied. - Cream colored Georgette crepe is combined with chiffon taffeta in the dainty evening , frock design here shown. A plain underslip. of cream chiffon taffeta with , 10 inch pleatei foot flounce makes the dress founda tion, over which a short waisted cor sage and a long, full tunic of Georg ette crepe is arranged. The corsage runs to a V in front and back, with the edges defined by orchid colored velvet ribbon about an inch and a half in width. A pink rose is eauM against one shoulder, the very short kimono sleeves ; are held around the Arm with, velvet rlb 1on, and the decolletage Is. filled in front and back with a fold of the un derslip material, -outlined across: the top with pearl beads.-!
