SATURDAY. APRIL 15. PAGEANT OF DRESS ft LONDON EVENT Thirty Beautiful Women to Take Part. Display of Fash ionable Dresses. 150 Candi dates in One Week. London—The experts on whom rests the responsibility of choosing the thirty beautiful women who are to take part in the pageant of dress at the Crystal Palace this summer carry out their duties with an ex treme thoroughness. At the preliminary interview with candidates anxious to take part in this display of fashionable dresses only three judges are present, one of whom concentrates attention on the carri age and walk of the young women, as they enter the room one by one. The second looks only at face and fea tures, while the third carefully scruti nese their general appearance and height. At one assembly held this week nearly 150 candidates passed In turn before the judges, of whom only eigh teen were considered suitable from all these aspects. The important question of figure had to be settled later by Mr. Sandow’s experts and the dressmakers whose creation the models are to wear, and the number was further reduced from eighteen to five. The ground of rejection are, of course, (extremely varied. Some candidates are seen at the first glance to be too short; others of a better height may not possess the graceful silhouette, which will be demanded by the fash ionable dresses of the coming sum mer. One failing however, appears to be common to the great majority of those who have come forward up to the present and that is, in the mat ter of deportment. A gocjl carriage and balanced, rhythmic walk are ab solutely essential for displaying the beauty of the gown, but the 300 can didates already interviewed 75 per cent. are rejected on this ground alons. Those who are accepted will have a fortnight’s special training in the art of walking before the opening of the Fair ns Fashions pageant, but this time is only' sufficient to perfect the carriage of those who already hold themselves well. It takes six months according to the manager of a large West End firm, for a girl who walks badly or ungracefully to acquire a correct and dignified carriage. Another dificulty which the judges have encountered is the apparent scarcity of dark or brunette types. Both fair and dark-haired models are of course required in order to show off gowns suitable for all types of beauty, but of the ten models definite ly selected only one is dark. Two have auburn hair and the seven others are all fair. sew no PUISNES WEEKLY Vienna.—A new spirit of indepen dence observable of late among Vien nese servants, both maids and men, Is widely attributed to a new weekly journal called the Servants' Review. Viennese mistresses express dismay at its appearance. The new Journal calls upon all do mestics to organize themselves and thus obtain a weapon by which wages can be raised and conditions of wo|k improved. All ill-treated and op pressed servants are invited to pour their views into the ears of the edi tor, who offers them the consolation of printing the names and addresses of hard-hearted masters and mistress es. Soma of the cases of alleged in justice thus revealed seem barely creditable. Subscribers to the Journal are al lowed to advertise for situations free of charge, and notices of footmen's balls and concerts for maids-of-all work are features of the publication.

NINE NOT IN SOUNDEST HEftLTH Her Condition Gives Cause For Alarm to Loyal Subjects. She and Kaiser in Mediterranian. Berlin, —While the kaiser is enjoy ing the best of health this year and not even the slightest rumor to the contrary has been heard, the kaiser ine’s state of health is causing some anxiety, though It is hoped that her stay under the sunny Mediterranean skies will be of benefit to her. King George of Greece will be the first vis itor to Achilleion Castle and though it is said that hil visit is a more act of politeness to bid the kaiser wel come on Greek soil, it is nevertheless thought that the relations between Turkey* and Greece may be touched on. In spite of Greece’s correct atti tude towards Turkey and boycott of Greek goods has again begun in Tur key’ and is causing • much ill feeling among King George’s hotheaded sub jects. In Constantinople, Symrna apd Brussels posters are fib be seen every where asking the Turks to boycott Greek business houses and vessel and to hire no Greek longshoremen to un load freight on the docks. Greek pa pers arriving from Athens have been seized and thrown into the sea, and the authorities have don»' nothing to punish the offenders. It is thought that the kaiser may bo persuaded t<* use his influence with the Turkish government to put an end to all these pinpricks which hurt the national feel ings of the Greeks and may have seri ous consequences in a corner of the world where tension Is . always high and where the people are ready to jump at each others' throats at the slightest provocation. HOTEL ROBBER 10 a HI'S GUISE Geneva. —A sensational trial has just been closed here with the sen tencing oi Elisa Baumgartner, of Berne, to 18 months imprisonment for robbing visitors in hotels. She was a member of an international gang of hotel thieves, at whose head was Al bert Hornschuh, a German, who, af ter his arrest in Paris, was sentenced to seven and a half years In prison last autumn by the court of Bozen, in the Austrian Tyrol. It was stated at, the trial that the gang committed between 80 and 100 robberies in the leading übSgls of Switzerland, Austria, and on the Hi vlera, to the value of at least SGOO,- 000 before being arrested. The local police brought thirteen specific charges against Elisa Baumgartner. Baumgartner -f leaded guilty to the charges, and said she was an instru meat of Hornschuh, whom she loved. The thefts covered a period of three, years. It was Hornschuh!* practice to climb up hotel wurer spouts at great risk, let himself into vacant rooms, and lower the booty down to Baumgartner. * The counsel for the defense paid much attention to the love portion of the affair, and the light sentence of eighteen months means really only four months, since Baumgartner has been fourteen months under arrest. The police at Berne and Bozen (Ty rol) have a large quanlity of stolen jewels obtained from thi3 and other gangs, which are still awaiting their rightful owners, and the value is stated to be at least ?1,000,000. For a year no claims have been forthcom ing. AIKEN NEWS Aiken, S.

RIGHTS OF TENANT DEFINED BT COURT When Dwelling is Rented Own er is Trespasser Unless He is Welcomed to Place. The rights of a landlord on rented property were forcefully defined in the recorder’s court Saturday morning. Mamie Fargo, colored, the owner of a small house and lot. on which bloomed a profuse quantity of roses, rented her property to another no gress, Nellie Blair. The roses, par ticularly fragrant, beautiful and nu merous, attracted the attention of school children, who knocked at. Nel lie's door to ask permission to pick some of them. The lessee of the property’ granted that permission. Shortly after the landlord at law and her father, Eugene Jennings, went into tho yard and cut every blossom from the bushes. Their excuse was that tho children in coming to pick the flowers, battered down the fences on the property. The lessee asked what they’ were doing, whence came the per mission, etc. The landlord paid no attention and the lessee went out to investigate. A fight followed. In tho recorder’s court the landlord and her father were given $3 or 6 day’s and $2 or 4 days respectively. Once the property had been rented, there being no clause in the lease so stipulating, the landlonj could not trespass on his own property without permission. Marion Johnson was fined $25 or 50 days in court for disorder and was bound over to the city court for as sault and battery. Nicholas Barnes pleaded guilty to stealing a revolver from the Augusta Garage, and was hound over to the city’ court under a bond of $l5O.

It is so arranged that tho public too can get a better Idea of the eon ditions of the state's financial affairs. The state’s liabilities and assets are shown in detailed figures. The total liabilities amount to about $7,000,000. but the Income from interest bearing and money - making assets, ineluding the Western and Atlantic Hail road, ha > amounted for the past year to $426.

Including fourteen branch es, as shown in the lists accompany ing this report, besides several new ones chartered In 1911. “During the past two years a larger per cent of the state hanks and their branches were examined than any previous year, and the most careful supervision possible under the present law was given. “During tho session of the last leg islature un effort was made to have the banking laws amended In carta n particulars, and to make several need ed reforms in tlx banking business o the state, suggested by the inefftcion cy of the present law to meet the re quirements of safe, conservative bank ing; but the proposed legislation was not effected, and I would again urge that the matter be given more thought ful consideration by the general as sembly at its next session. “No one interest of our state, per Imps, is of more Importance In the substantial growth and stability of Mu st ate and prosperity of (lie people than the banking industry, representing millions of money Invested and on de posits by all classes of citizens.” A paragraph further down In tho report says. “Many Georgia state banks have taken on features of trust companies during the past few years, finding tho enlarged functions and powers n.ro advantageous and afford greater ac commodations in every way,” INSPECTION OF CADETS OF U.
