T4 THE EFFECTIVENESS OF FUR AS A TRIMMING Bolero effects are very modish again. Some of them are sleeveless, being worn with an underblouse of sheer material—others, as shown in 7714, have the drop-shoulder and a full or three-quarter length sleeve. One has not to be told of the beau- ties of fur as a trimming, for nothing is richer or softer. A collar of fur framing the face is most becoming. Fur is not only seen on the heavy dress or suit for winter street wear, but a strip outlines the decolletege of the evening gown as well, a line may be seen on the sleeves and neck of the filmy net blouse and the blouse of linen also has its bit. A dull red velours de laine is used with 7714, collared and cuffed in black fox and having a banding of fox at the hem. The belted-in “bib” on the front of the blouse is of brightly colored em- broidery. This frock shows a five gored skirt slightly draped in front and a normal waist-line. To copy this design in size 36 it re- quires 5 yards of 42 inch velours de laine with % yard of embroidery. No. 7714—sizes 34 to 42. Each pattern 15 cents. Department, care of this paper.

EXPECTED TO -RECOVER ) Attempted Assassination Believed to Be Outcome of Bitterness Aroused Against Mine Owners by Settiement of Recent Strike. Johannesburg, Union of South Af- rica, Dec. 12.—An attempt was made to assassinate Sir Lionel Phillips, the leading gold mining magnate ' of | ! South Africa. Three shots were fired at him. One bullet lodged in his neck and another in oné of his thighs. His condition is declared to be not grave. The would-be assassin was arrested. The attempt was made while he was walking on Commissioner street. It is suppcsed to have been an out- come of the bitterness aroused against the mine owners owing to the dissatisfaction of the miners in connection with the conditions of settlement of the strike movement in | T September. At that time a series of riots oc- curred in which about 100 miners were killed and many wounded. The grievances of the men were chiefly concerned with the great mor- tality in the mines and the refusal of the mine owners to recognize the unions. They were eventually forced to accept the owners’ terms. Sir Lionel Phillips was closely iden- tified with the late Cecil Rhodes and Alfred Beit and he is a partner in the firm of Wernher, Beit & Co. He has lived in Johannesburg since 1889. In 1896 Sir Lionel was sentenced to death at Pretoria for participation in the Jamestown raid, together with John Hays Hammond, George P. Far- rar and Colonel Frank Rhodes. The sentence was later commuted to a fine of $125,000 and banishment. The assailant of Sir Lionel Phillips was later identified as a Dutch store- keeper named Nissun. BURTON FOR CENTRAL BANK Ohio Senator Attacks Owen Currency Measure.

London, Dec. 12.—The first step in the work of restoring the prosperity of Mesopotamia, once the granary of the world, by means of irrigation, is described in a Constantinople dis- patch to the London Daily Mail.
