a BEARDSLEY QUITS AND GOES 10 ALL ‘Spirited From His Home Fort Before Dawn, While Posse Is Still on the Watch. IS PLACED IN PRISON. Surprise for Officers, Who Hear Five Later of | Happening—Children Home. | Hours MAYVILLE, N. ¥., Jan, 2),—Ed-) ward Beardsley, the Chautauqua’ County outlaw farmer, was locked in! @ cell in the county jail here to-day after having stood off between forty, and Afty deputy sheriffs besieging his; home near Summer Dale for more than a week. Beardsley Inid aside his! rifle, unstrapped bis cartridge belt! and surrendecred peaceably to Charles Backus, an attorney and hotel man of this place, at 4 A. M. to-day, but after! being housed at the hotel of Backus’ displayed another outbreak of | like spirit when @ deputy arrived to! take him to jail. As the deputy entered he closed With him and after a scuffle, during which Beardsley was roughly han-| died, he was overpowered. | Although Backus had been ap- pointed a Deputy Sheriff by Sheriff Anderson, the surrender was entirely without the knowledge of the latter, Beardsley having bargained secretly with Backus. Gheriff Anderson and his poste maintained their guard five hours efter the surrender, not knowing that Beardsley had voluntarily gone to jail. : Beardsley turned his firearms over to Ray F. Pickard, a Jamestown law- yer retained by his brothers. Pickard fe now in charge at the Beardsley farmhouse. COULD HAVE HELD OUT WEEK LONGER, SAYS BEARDSLEY. “That ff is rotten. I could hi held ou. another week if I had enough fuel,” was Beardsley'’s sharp criticism of the county guardian. The Beardsley children are still in the cabin on the hill in charge of their grandmother, Mra, Edith Austin, | of Youngsville, Pa. It has not been arranged when they will be removed to Mrs, Austin’s home in Pennsyl- vania. The “arrest” of Beardsley leaked out gradually and caused much sur- prise, for it was not expected that he would surrender before late to-day, as | he had agreed to do. But it was thought advisable by his legal adviser and brothers to bring him into May- ville us quietly as possible to avoid demonstration. To add to the comedy features of the whole affair, just before Beards- ley left his “fort” he fired a shot to intimate to the Sheriff's posse thut he was on duty and watchful. After Beardsley was spirited away the Sheriff's posse continued their watchful duty, not knowing that their bird had flown to Mayville. * Beardsley is an undersized man, rather slim, but muccular, He wore a rough workingman shirt, heavy trousers and high boots, The man is not an ignorant, uneducated farmer, as might be imagined. He talks with ease and fluency of his troubles. He was at one time a teacher and a Preacher of a humble sort, and his con- versation is that of a man who is not without recognition of the fact that he kaows exactly what he is talking about. Beardsley before going to jail was served with a warrant charging him with assault in tho first degree in having shot G. W. Putnam, Overseer of the Poor of Chautauqua County, ‘with intent to kill. Locked in his cell mo one was allowed to see him. ~ Beardaley’s “captui came after eight days of open defiance of the| law and his effective defense of “Fort | Beardsley,” as his farmhouse strong- Dresses Will Be Cut Low in the Neck and Skirts, Split to the Knee, According to the Forecast of 1914 Fashions.

Therefore it's open FASHION DECREES MORE AND MORE DECOLLETE. “Our latest models are more decol~ lete than any fashions for twenty years past,” a great French costumer has announced, “They are cut with great depth, not only in front and at the back, but also at the sides be- neath the arms, Sometimes there is falling drapery, carried always from the edge of the dress, but this is quite transparent, The tendency is for morning dresses also to be cut with increased decolletege. “The effect at a that of a dress which has dentally slipped down to just above the weiet, and ie retained by a single thin thrown shoulder, side of th below it are left free.” The costumers’ next statement shows that not even the weather clerk can disqualify in feminine estimation the skirt slit up from the hem, Cold latter was about to take the outlaw's nine children to a county inatitution, He barricaded the windows and doors of his farmhouse and kept the Sheriff and his posse at bay by threatening to use the children as a shield against their bullets.

Moreover, he showed colors,” he continued, ated series of bustles. It is true that exactly as we used to know it. In- stead of being an artificial pad, it con- sists rather of an extra fulness in the it bottom to keep It in place. “All the fulness in the skirts, how- evor, will be kept at the top. That is the real reason why the slit will be seen in so many models, despite an effort to do away with it. The favor- ite position will be in the middle of the front, or in the middle of the back, not on the side. Walking is most dificult and dangerous in a skirt which is narrow around the bottom and which is not slit, Tue critica might remember this.” “Of course, if women wore wider skirts it would not be necessary to slit them and to evoke #0 much criti- cism," I suggested. But the designer Was now interested in another topic. “Green and yellow will be the most popular colors this spring,” he announced, green gloves.” At least we are given fair warning!
