TIGHT TROUSERS AND
VIOLENT WAISTCOATS
STYLE EDICT FOR MAN
CHICAGO, Oct. 3. —Slowly, but none
the less surely, Dame Fashion is bend
ing men to her fickle rule.
Exhibits displayed at the joint con
vention of the Merchant Tailors society
and the Custom Cutters league show
that men will not be permitted to wear
what they please or what is comforta
ble. Form-fitting coats and vests, with
tight trousers, prevail. Top coats will
be double-breasted with velvet collars
and edges. Much latitude is permitted
in colors for the waistcoat and scarfs
of the most violent and riotous colors
are proper, providing due attention is
given the matter of harmonizing with
the tone of the other garments.
Peg top trousers,.the vaudeville stage
variety that bulge like skirts at the
hips and are rolled half-way to the
knees, giving the wearer the appear
ance of having legs about one-fourtb
as long as his body, will not be toler
ated by any but freak college students
and the brand of "Johnnies” who in
fest the moving picture theaters. Along
with the ridiculous peg tops will de
part the coat that reaches half-way to
the knees.
Velvet edges on overcoats are an
opening wedge on a sort of experiment,
and will be followed by more radical
changes from the old styles if they
take well this fall and winter. The top
coat in grays, browns and shades, in
which purple predominates, with a vel
vet collar and velvet edges, is really an
attractive garment. The dark gray
Prince Albert with the black velvet edge
also comes in for a revival this sea
son. -
RAIL COMMISSION
MOVES TO PREVENT
SCARCITY OF CARS
The state railroad commission today
issued an appeal to shippers to co-op
erate with the railroads in the move
ment of freight to prevent a scarcity of
cars. Among other things, the com
mission says:
“While certain free time is allowed
for loading and unloading cars, this
does not necessarily mean that it ought
to be consumed in every instance and
regardless of every other consideration
or circumstance.
“Cars should be loaded and unloaded
as promptly as .possible after being
placed. It is not fair to the carriers or
to other shippers to hold them for 48
hours, just because one has that much
free time by law, when they could fust
as well be handled tn six or twelve
hours. Harmonious co-operation be
tween shippers, consignees and carriers,
in all of their relations and transac
tions, has been the earnest desire of
this commission, and it especially urges
such in the handling of freight equip
ment for the next few months.”

Suffragette* Sent to
Prison for 5 Years*
Wins Hunger Strike
Illness Brought On Herself Pro
cures Release—Tries to Burn
Royal Theater.
Bl BI,IN, Oct. 3. —Gladys Evans, the
militant suffragette who was sentenced
to five years penal servitude on Au
gust 7 for trying to burn down the
Theater Royal here during a demon
stration in favor of suffrage, was to
day released because of illness which
she brought upon herself by’ her re
fusal to eat the prison fare.
The prison physicians declared it
would probably prove fatal to imprison
the woman further unless she dropped
her hunger strike.

Forsyth County Mob
Burns Negro Church
DAWSONVILLE, GA., Oct. 3.—A
mob, supposed to be from Forsyth
county, burned 'a negro church known
as Prospect last night about three
miles from Dawsonville, in Dawson

CITIZENS ON BRYANT
PROTEST 4-FOOT CUT
IN WIDTH OF STREET
The citizens on Bryant street are
protesting vigorously the act of the
city in narrowing their street from 40
feet to 36 feet. A number presented
a written protest at the city hall to
day.
They declare that Chief of Construc
tion Clayton had a curbing put down
on the 40-foot line and agreed to let it
stay there. Without warning, they
said, lie moved it diagonally across
South Boulevard in order to gain four
feet. This greatly depreciates the
value of the property, they declare.
They also said there absolutely was
no reason in making the change, and
that Captain Clayton would give no
cause for it.
ANNEX TO HOME FOR
OLD WOMEN IS BEGUN;
MORE MONEY NEEDED
To provide accommodations for thirty
or forty additional Inmates, a dining
hall and a hospital ward will be added
to the Home for Old Women. 61 West
End avenue. Work on the foundation for
the annex has been begun and the im
provements, it is expected, will be com
pleted by spring.
It is planned to set aside a certain
number of rooms in the annex for the
accommodation of widows of Confederate
veterans and to obtain an appropriation
from the state for this purpose. A res
olution providing such an appropriation
failed to pass at the last session of the
legislatu re
The board of managers of the home has
funds to defray a substantial part of the
cost of erecting and furnishing the addi
tion, but much more is needed. Dona
tions will be received by Joseph A. Mc-
Cord, treasurer of the building fund.
CARRIES HUSBAND OUT
FROM THIRD-FLOOR FIRE
ST. LOUIS, Oct, 3.—Mis. John Free
den, who weighs 200 pound®, picked her
husband up in her arms and carried
him down three flights of stairs after
he had been overcome by smoke in a
fire that damaged their home.
Freeden had returned to his rooms oil
the third floor to get a gold watch he
had forgotten in the haste of his first
departure. His wife awaited him at
the bottom of the stairs, and when he
did not return at once, went in search
of him.
She found-him unconscious at the top
of the stairway, the watch clutched in
his hand.

"It seemed that my 14-year-old boy
would have to lose his leg on account
of an ugly ulcer, caused by a bad
briuse,” wiote D. F. Howard, Aquone,

PASTOR WOULD HIRE
500 DETECTIVES TO
AID IN WAR ON VICE
“If it becomes necessary I will head a
movement to place 500 special detec
tives in the streets of Atlanta to watch
suspicious houses and break up this
vice evil.” declared Rev. Hugh Wallace,
pastor of the Jones Avenue Baptist
church, who is taking an active inter
est in Chief Beavers’ vice war and Is
closely watching results.
“Now that Chief Beaver* has started
the ball rolling, we intend to keep it
moving." said Mr. Wallace. “We will
keep a close watch on the situation and
if we find it necessary will be ready to
STOMACH MISERY
JUSTVfiNISHES
No Indigestion, Gas or Sour
ness after taking “Pape’s
Diapepsin.”
If what you just ate is souring on
your stomach or lies like a lump ot
lead, refusing to digest, or you belch
gas and eructate sour, undigested food,
or have a feeling of dizziness, heart
burn fullness, nausea, bad taste in
mouth and stomach headache —this is
indigestion.
A full ease of Pape's Diapepsin costs
only fifty cents and will thoroughly
cure your out-of-order stomach, and
have sufficient about the house in case
some one else in the family may suf
fer from stomach trouble or indigestion.
Ask your pharmacist to show you
the formula plainly printed on these
fifiy-cent cases, then you will under
stand whv dyspeptic trouble of all kinds
must go, and why they usually re
lieve sour, out-of-order stomachs or
indigestion in five minutes. Diapepsin
is harmless and tastes like candy,
though each dose contains power suffi
cient to digest and prepare for assim
ilation into the blood all the food you
eat; besides, it makes you go to the
table with a healthy appetite; but
what will please you most is that you
will feel that your stomach and in
testines are clean and fresh, and you
will not need to resoi’t to laxatives or
liver pills for biliousness or constipa
tion.
This city will have many Diapepsin
cranks, as some people will call them,
but you will be cranky about this
splendid stomach preparation, too. if
you ever try a little for indigestion or
gastritis or any other stomach misery.
Get some now, this minute, and for
ever rid yourself of stomach trouble
and indigestion. (Advt.)
