Seattle government officials are plan
ning on sifting out Chinese gunmen
from among the cannery crews of Al
aska. as a result of disclosures made
at Portland in Chinese highbinder

cannery crews in the summer in Al
aska. He testified that a murder fund
was subscribed and guns and ammu
nition furnished a number of high

Coat With Emplacements of Fur-Fabric
Coats, coat suits and frocks, with
collars and cuffs of fur or fur-fabrics
and emplacements like them on the
skirt are among the season’s note
worthy and handsome offerings. On
separate long couts and on couts with
coat suits the collars and cuffs are at
tached to the garments, but on frocks
to be worn Indoors as well as out, the
collar and cuffs may be detachable.
Collars are nearly always of the con
vertible vuriety on all couts.
A handsome coat of tuupe wool ve
lours Is shown In the picture, finished
with fur-fabric in the same color. It
Is full and straight-hanging, with a
handsome half girdle of the material
that extends from the side seams to
the front. Here its two long ends, bor
dered with the fur-fabric are looped
over. There are three large covered
buttons at the front of the coat and
one on the collar, all covered with the
same furlike material.
These marvelously woven und dyed 1
materials have established themselves
as a permanent feature of- each new
season’s production of fabrics. When
they are made to imitate natural skius
the resemblance Is so close that It is
almost Impossible to tell the difference.
It takes a “close-up” view and the tes
timony of touch to tell woven broad- J
full or seal or mole plush from these
furs. They are at their best when
used In the manner illustrated, either
on coats or suits or frocks.
Now that everyone is practicing
economy and prolonging the usefulness
of garments by remodeling them, these
fur-fabrics have proven themselves the
best of aids. They help to change the
appearance of made-over clothes so
completely that there Is no recognizing
original suit or frock that Is enriched
hy them—and their durability means a
long-time lease on life for such gar
ments.
Entire coats of fur-fabrics are very -
warm and hardly suited to the milder
climates of the South, but scarfs and
muffs, or collars and cuffs on fashion
able coatings worn with muff to match
them, make an ideal coat for any lati
tude. In the North a sweater worn
under a coat of this kind makes it as
warm as a fur coat and the cloth coat
trimmed with fur-fahric. At least the
equal of an entire coat of the fabric, in
elegnnee and in rich appearance.
