GERMAN PLOTTER IS FREED FROM PRISON: ~ WILL BE DEPORTED Conspired to Violate Neutrality of United States; Con- victed in 1917 (By United Press.) Seattle. Wash., Jan. 9.—When" the prison doors at McNeil’s Island, near here, close behind Lieut. Wilhelm von Brincken, former military at- tache at the imperial German consu- late, his truobles probably will not have ceased. Deportation proceedings. have al- ready been begun against von Brinc- ken, and it was expected immigration authorities would be on hand to take him into custody. His case now rests with United States Immigration ‘Commissioner White at Angel Island. Henry M. Owens, cuonsel for von Brincken, however, has taken steps to halt the deportation of his client, even appealing to President Wilson in his behalf. Von Brincken was convicted in 1917 of conspiring with Consul-Gen- eral Franz Bopp and Vice-Consul Eckhart von Schaack to violate the neutrality of the United States. He was sentenced to two years in prison here with an additional month tacked on because of von Brincken’s ina- bility to pay a 35,000 fine. - Six weeks were stricken from his term for good behavior in the prison. In a deposition made to immigra- tion officials, von Brincken revealed schemes of Bopp, von Schaack and the German consulate in San Fran- cisco previous to America’s entrance into the war. Bopp and von Schaack, confined in the war-prison detention camp in Fort Douglas, Utah, will not be released until 1921. When at liberty von Brincken, it is believed, may try to regain the affections of his pretty former wife. Milo Abercrombie, who several months ago divorced him and had the names of herself and their two chil- dren changed to Abercrombie.. REV. SOPER LEAVES SOON TO ASSUMT NEW FIELD Rev. and Mrs. M. A. Soper expect to leave for Yakima, Wash., about March 1, and are making prepara- tions for moving. Rev. Soper has " been engaged in missionary work in this section of the country for about ten years and by going west he is to be placed in a new field and continue in the same work. FUNERAL HELD TODAY. .. The funeral services of Mrs. Olga Pederson of Port Hope township, who died on January 6, were held to- day, interment being made in the Turtle River cemetery. Rev. Osmund Johnson conducted the services. Grand Pre. The Evangeline district of Nova Scotia is. beat: seen by driving out from the town of Wolfville, which stands on the southern shores of Minas Basin. A drive of from ten to twelve miles will give the visitor a fair idea ¢f the whole countryside. Passing over a ridge pear the town, the visitor ¢qmes to the Gaspereau valley and the Igke that gives the val- +ley its name. Gaspereaux is the French name of glewives, a kind of herring which abound in these wa- ters. On all sides are orchards and off to the left at the foot of a small ridge is the hamlet of Grand Pre. The site of the old French village, close to the railway station, is marked by a clump of willows, an old well, and the cellars of a few cottages. From this point the visitor may drive to the north, across the expanse of fer- tile-dyked meadow that gave name to the village. Buildim) City fnr Em.‘loyeeL On the outbrenk of the war the Westinghouse company found itselt compelled to abandon a rather exten- sive hoyse-building program which had been started, but this has been re- sumed, and 48 houses for its employ- ees are now under way. These homes form.only a part of a generul building plan for the development of a large tract. It is estimated this tract will furnish homes for 600 families. Side- 'walks and paving wili be laid, and gas, water and electricity will be provided for. The houses, which are modern in construction, will be of brick with hollow tile backing, with concrete cel- Jars and cement porches. They will consist mainly of five, six and seven- room houses, designed to meet the mneeds and the pocketbook of the man in moderate circumstances, and will be sold at cost on easy terms to the em- ployees of the company. A number of the dwellings will be for rent. ° New Zealand Importing Timber, It seems curious that a country so reputedly rich in timber as New Zea- land should be Importing such ma- terial, but during the last five months America has sent over some 46,000 feet of redwood, yellow pine, shin- gles and lath, chiefly from Oregon. Lively Movement of Freight Cars. The world’s record for car move ment is claimed by Columbia. Pa., where 9,581 cars passed in a single day. In one month 250,000 freight cars passed Columbia. or 22 average of six cars per mipitte, No “Garage” for Him. Edwin had seen a cemetery where ! there were many mausoleums. One day he said to his mother: “When I die, I don’t want to be buried in one of those garages in the cemetery.” RARE FUR-TRIMMED GARMENT An out-of-the-ordinary dress of gold tissue embroidered with yellow wors ted in a plaid design trimmed with kolinsky tails, producing a stunning effect. The exquisite paradise is gold- shaded and puts a charming finishing touch on this unusual creation. SKIRTS SHORTER FOR 1920 8even to Nine Inches From Floor, De- cree of Style Committee of National Association. The style committee of the National Oloak, Suit and Skirt Manufacturers’ association in session recently at Cleveland, Ohio, recommended skirts from three to four inches shorter than at present for the 1920 season in its report. The committee decreed that skirts next season will he from seven to nine inches from the floor for women and about ten inches for misses, as compared with four to six inches for women and six to eight inches for misses at present. Skirts, the style makers say, will be “frankly short.” but without abbrevia- tion. One thing to be avolded if one wishes to be stylish, is the extreme. Tunic and plaited skirts will be worn. Fullness at the hips will be a fea- ture of many of the smart spring suits. Sleeves will fit snugly. Sport suits for spring and summer wear are recommended. Novel belts of leather and metal, and a new type of collar—long, slender and rolling— will be a detail of, the suits. The Lord Byron and Peter Pan designs will be popular. The newest wrap for women is not unlike the old Roman toga, a graceful, enveloping garment that can be tucked up and pulled together. “Prices of coats, suits and skirts will stay up,” sald Michael Printz of Cleveland, chairman of the style com- mittee. USE DOILIES FOR COLLARS Vogue for Biblike Neck Decorations and Drooping Cuffs Finds Place for Old Pieces. With the present vogue for flat, bib- like collars, round or square, and odd- shaped, drooping cuffs, comes a chance to utilize old-fashioned lace doilies. Two doilles of equal size are re- quired for cuffs. The linen centers should be carefully ripped out and the edge of the lace basted to the edge of the sleeve, from which it will fall in graceful rippling folds. The coNar doily should be some- what larger than those used for the cuffs. After the linen center is re- move( decide whether you wish the collar to fasten on the shoulder or in the back. If the doily is round all you have to do s to cut it in oneY place and hem the raw edges, and 1t is ready to be worn open either at the side or the back. But if it is square and the opening is to be on one shoulder one side will have to be cut and faced or hemmed after being fitted and a tuck taken In the opposite slde to make the collar fit smoothly. Of course the doily is quite large and the neck line rather low the lace need not be cat but just worn slip- over fashion, basted or pinned in place. . Soft Vs. Stiff Collars. The movement started at a univer- sity to promote the use of soft collars as a means of fighting the high prices demanded by laundries will not exert, it was stated, any harmful effect on the collar trade. The same profit and a little more, it was explained, apglies to soft as to stiff collare. The element of competition, however, is one that big concerns do not particularly like. Soft collars and soft shirts, it seems, have always been easier to manufac- ture, and consequently encourage com- petition from small firms. Tam-Shaped Turbans. Tam turbans, many with fitted tips or visors, have come to us from France. Some of thése smart, youth- ful hats have crown bands of such fur as kolinsky. sauirrel or seal.

P “When 1 leave my office «t night,” said & man who has made a reputa- tion for dealing successfully with big problems, according to the New Suc- cess, “] take no business worries with me, because I want to come back In the morning at the top of my condi- tion, capable of doing the biggest day’s work that is possible for me. “If I were to worry over things at night, if T didn't get recreation and rest, I couldn’t do a man’s work; I counldn’t tackle big propositions. “No man can take his troubles to bed wlt\h him and lie awake thinking of them when he should -be -getting refreshing sleep to re-enforee him.to. handle big things the next day. Buoy- ancy, enthusiasm, mental harmony, are the very essence of efficiency, of crea- tive ability; and worry destroys all of these, so I absolutely refuse to worry in any circumstances. “I won't waste my energy and my creative power lying awake nights wor- rying over things. I know that I can deal efficiently with them next day, and not till then. Now this is what all men problems home with them after the day’s work is done; they lock them. in their place of business. Over the door of their home is written in men- tal characters:- ““‘No worrylng here. Thls is my re- freshing station, my repair shop. This is where I equip myself for the next day’s run. This 1§ where I renew my spirit, my enthusiasm, my zest. Here is where I brace up my sagging ambk tion and get ready for tomorrow’s run.’ " Woman Orator. Mary A, Livermore was born in Boston, Mass., Dec. 19, 1821. She was not more than 11 or 12 years old when she conceived the idea of helping her parents by some definite occupation. She learned to sew, and made flannel shirts at 63 cents apiece. Regarded by the pastor of her church as a prodigy, at the age of 14 she was sent by him to the Charlestown Female seminary, where she soon ranked with the best scholars the institution ever had. At the age of 20 she was placed in charge of the Duxbury high school, Mass., a position of unusual rank for a woman at that time. With the out- ‘break of the Civil war in 1861 she be- eame an organizer in woman’s war work. In 1863 she made her first public address at Dubuque, Iowa. Her won- derful talents as an orator were imme- diately recognized, and her fame as 8 speaker soon became nation-wide. Mechanical Stoking Patent.
