Peeresses Welcome Cut
In Cost of Court Dresses
LONDON, May 18.—(JP)—Ready
made gowns will appear at court
functions this season for the first
time. The innovation, the idea of
which was imported from the Unit
ed States by court dressmakers to
suit the purses of some of their cus
tomers among princesses and peer
esses, also includes the purchase of
dresses on the instalment plan.
According to the dressmakers,
many youthful daughters of earls
and dukes were the first to welcome
this economical solution of their re
duced clothing allowances, and a
rushing business has resulted among
those modistes who have taken up
the plan. For $50 the young women
have been able to find exclusive mod
els designed and executed by artists
of color and the scissors, wiiereas a
few years ago they would have paid
two dr three times as -mtfch'.
Some of the court dressmakers,
this season, have abolished the old
time custom of sales by appointment
only and because of the keen, corn
petition in their line of business, are
willing to serve customers any time
they appear. * ' ’ •• ;
Children are getting too precocious
we think. Why, the other day a boy
told his mother to put plenty of lim
burger cheese in his sandwich so
the teacher would be sure to send
him home.- :

Violence Walks Abroad
In Portuguese Capital
LISBON, May 18.—(JP)—The popu
lation of Lisbon has fallen recently
under the terrorizing influence of the
Red Legion, a secret society of male
factors notorious for bomb outrages,
assassinations and robberies. Sev
eral groups of these bandits have,
during the the last few weeks, car
ried out their exploits in broad day
light, entering the principal national
banks and demanding, with pointed
pistols, large sums of money, and
; imposing silence by threats of ven
geance on the clerks and their fam
ilies.
A few days ago, in a busy thor
oughfare, a collector was assaulted
and robbed of his bag containing sev
eral thousand pounds. While two
men attacked the collector, others
discharged pistols in the most ap
proved movie style, effectively cover
ing the retreat of the attacking par
ty to a side car, in which they made
their escape.
As these repeated occurrences are
being carried out without the imme
diate intervention of the police, and
without arrests being made, the
newspapers have censured the neg
ligence of the police. Now, how
ever, the authorities have- arrested
the principal persons implicated in
the assault on the collector and sev
eral other members of the Red Le
gion. At the same time all the news
papers print a statement from the
commissioner general of police in
which he protests against the injus
tice of the references made to this
corporation. He affirms that the
impunity of the criminals is due to
the terror and cowardice of the vic
tims, who refuse to lay complaints
against them. “ w *
As soon as the members of the
Red Legion "were arrested dynamite
bombs exploded in various quarters
of the city, fortunately causing no
loss of life, though several places of
business have suffered severely, one
of them being completely destroyed.

his time is booked many months
ahead.
