Reflect War PRESIDENT ASKS New in Style» Submarine Petticoat» DOINGS OF OREGON’S LEGISLATURE CO-OPERATION Spirit of W ar in Time of Peace Urged by Executive. Wilson Predicts Shortage o f Food and Urges farmers to Grow Larger Grain Supply. Chicago— Submarine and spiral pet ticoats have arrived. You may take your choice. The fashion show has opened at the First Regiment armory. In several booths are fascinating ex hibits of silk threads, the spools ar- ranged primly in primatic colors. An other booth has petticoats and negli gees that have attracted a great deal of attention by reason of their novelty. The submarine petticoat and negli gee is the oddest of them all. The petticoat is of bluish green silk, the bottom wired out into a hoop. Deco rating the bottom and half way up to the top are submarine scenes. One large under-water boat drifted placidly through a marvelous deep-sea garden of gilt and silver flowers, while bi zarre gilded fish swam around it, peer ing with evident curiosity. The whole is cleverly portrayed, es pecially considering the canvas and the materials. The spiral petticoat is a maze of ruffles, which run spirally up the skirt from the hem to the waist band. It sticks out like an antebellum skirt, and the negligee above it is quaintly fashioned to carry out the fishu idea. The lampshade petticoat also holds its quota of admirers. An innovation in a tailored suit is one which may be transformed into a peace or a war suit. I f your tenden cies are toward militarism, the suit is worn buttoned up tightly to the neck with martial-looking buttons. Then it is a most soldierly in appearance. But if you are peaceful, then it is allowed to fall back unfastened into soft lines. A clever style o f the popular suit dress is shown. It iB o f linen and so deceitfully fashioned that it would seem to be a separate coat and skirt, but it isn’t, it fools you. It is a dress. Washington, D. C. — Co-operation between business and the government in framing laws for the benefit of all the people was urged by President Wilson Thursday night in an address before several hundred representative business men, here attending the an nual convention of the Chamber of Commerce of the United StateB. He declared that “ we must all pool our interests” in order to discover the best means for handling public problems. The creation in the United States in time of peace of the same kind of united spirit which moves nations dur ing wars was advocated by the Presi dent, who remarked that “ when peace is as handsome as war there will be no wars.” “ When men engage in the pursuits of peace in the same spirit of Belf- sacrific as they engage in wars, wars will disappear.” The President predicted that while there is a shortage o f food in the world now the shortage will be much greater later. He pointed out that under the guidance of the department o f Agriculture efforts muBt be made by farmers in the United States to grow more grain, in order that the world may be fed. Speaking of the foreign trade of the United States, the President asked that business men deviBe some way of allowing exporters in the United World Police Idea Advo States to combine to secure common cated by E arl Grey selling agencies, and to give long-time London — Earl Grey, foreign secre credits in such a way that these co operative devices may be open to the tary, presiding at a meeting held to advocate an agreement among the na use of all.

Mr. Bartholdt said England had en acted a similar law in 1853, just be fore the Crimean War, and regarded it as a domestic matter. Under ques tioning by Senator Sutherland, he thought the effect of the Hitchcock bill would be to weaken the allies. He cited the biography o f Ambassa dor White at Berlin in 1898, during the Spanish-American war, to show Germany's attitude. It was said there, he said, that a shipload of war materials had left Hamburg for a Spanish port when Mr. White protest ed and the German government, al though it had a clear right to permit such traffic, ordered the ship back to Hamburg to be unloaded. Canada Asks U. S. tor Bridge Dynamiter Washington, D. C.— Formal appli cation for the extradition to Canada of Werner Van Horn, charged with “ attempted destruction of human life ,” was made at the State depart ment by Sir Cecil Spring-Rice, the Britirh ambassador. The ambassador called personally at the department and presented a brief note to Secretary Bryan based on communications from the Canadian Minister of Justice at Ottawa, inform ing the embassy that Van Horn was wanted on the charge of attempting to destroy human life, through the wilful and unlawful destruction of the St. Croix river bridge. lurks lteteat Russians. Berlin— A Turkish victory over the Russian army of the Caucasus is re ported from Constantinople, as given out by the Overseas News Agency. The Turkish military headquarters at Constantinople announced a Russian detachment had made an attack on the Turkish forces at Arthin, in the trans- Caucausus, 34 miles southeast of Ha- tum. This attack is said to have been repulsed, with heavy losses in men and war material for the Russians. The Turkish troops then made a successful attack on two Russian battalions. Three Itosnians Executed. Amsterdam — A Berlin dispatch re ceived here says that the execution o f three of the conspirators in the assas sination of the Archduke Francis Fer dinand, heir apparent to the Austrian throne, took place on Wednesday in the prison of the court fortress at Sarajevo, Bosnia. Gavrio Frintip, the Bosnian student who actually slew the archduke and his morganatic w ife while they were visiting Sarajevo, is undergoing a sentence of 20 years' im prisonment, a death sentence being il legal on account of his youth. West Coast Is Stormed. San Diego A radiogram to Rear Admiral Howard, on board the flagship San Diego here, received from Maxat- lan, reported that General Iturbe, a Villa'partisan, stormed Acaponeta last Monday, after several hours of fight ing, and raptured #0 prisoners. His own wounded are being transported to Mazatlan. The cruiser San Diego left here for Ensenada to investigate con ditions there. A Brief Resume o f Proceedings o f the People’s Representatives at the State Capital, Bills Introduced, Passed, Rejected, Etc. House Passes Its House Votes Appropriations Compensation B ill Aggregating $1,185,627 State Capitol, Salem— By a vote of 55 to 2 the house passed house bill 222, providing a series of amendments to the workmen’s compensation act that are expected to remedy defects in the law that have been discovered in the few months it has been in effect. The principal change contemplated is to reclassify the industries and make their rates o f insurance under the act commensurate with the risk in volved. The measure requires the industrial accident commission to investigate all cases where it has reason to believe that employers subject to the act have failed to install or maintain safety appliances required by statute, and to report cases o f failure to a prosecuting attorney and request criminal proceed ings. It further offers inducements to em ployers to remove the hazard from their shops and factories by reducing their rates in propotrion to the reduc tion of the number of accidents. It was openly charged on the floor of the house that the casualty companies were eager to have the bill defeated and that they would benefit by enact ment of a law similar to the Michigan law. A dozen members spoke in favor of the bill, including Representative Scheubel, its author, and Sam Brown, Mr. Smith, of Multnomah, Horne, Hare, Lewis, Jeffries and Wentworth. It was pointed out that the bill had the indorsement of both employers and employes, and Dr. Smith declared that the best argument in favor of it was the charge that the casualty companies were against it. State Capuol, Salem— Four big ap propriation bills, providing expendi tures for as many big Btate depart ments and aggregating $1,185,627, were passed by the house. The several departments and the amount appropriated for each for the next biennium are: Capitol and Su preme Court buildings and grounds, $58,560; state hospital for the insane, $676,166; institution for the feeble minded, $144,961; Eastern Oregon hospital for the insane, $305,860. The bill providing $174,700 for the state penitentiary and that appropriat ing $28,215 for the blind school were laid on the table temporarily to give Governor Withycombe further oppor tunity to study them. None of the measures passed pro vides for any permanent improve ments, excepting the Eastern Oregon asylum bill which carries $100,000 for a new building. In the 1913-1914 biennium, these same four institutions and departments had appropriations aggregating $1,- 376,946.61, which included $133,000 for completing the Supreme Court building, $41,000 for new buildings at the feeble-minded institution, $45,000 for new buildings at the Eastern Ore gon hospital and approximately $45,- 000 for work on the new receiving ward at the state insane hospital at Salem. The ways and means committee has not decreased the per capita allow ances for any institution, but has kept the proposed expenditures at a mini mum by eliminating from the budget estimates all unnecessary improve ment work and by allowing no new work except the building at the Pendleton institution. 4^IOUT5E TOR55LUM) C o AUTHOR O T'Ttir STORY OF SARAH," ''THF SHIP OF DREAMS.” ETC. SYNOPSIS. Captain Abraham Rose ami Angelina, hlB wlftt. have ioat their little home through Abe's unlucky purchase of Tena- tty Gold mining Block. Their houaehold goods sold, the $100 auction money, all they have left, will pla< e Abe in the Old Man’s home, or Angy In the Old Ladles’ home. Both are self-sacrificing but Abe decides: "M y dear this ia the fust time I'v e had a chance to take the wust of It.” The old couple bid good-by to the little house. Terror of ‘‘what folks will say” sends them along by-paths to the gate of the Old I.adles' home. Miss Abigail, ma tron o f the Old la d les' home, hears of the ill fortune of the old couple. She telU the other old ladles, and Blossy. who has paid a double fee for the only double bed chamber, voices the unanimous verdict that Abe must be taken in with his wife. Abe awakens next morning to find that he Is “ Old la d y No. 81.” The old ladles give him such a warm welcome that he Is made to feel at home at once. "Brother Ab e" expands under the warm reception of the sisters, and a reign o f peace begins In the Old Ladles' home.
