Girl Employes Are Told How to Pre-
serve Complexions.
By Associated Press.
London, July 29.—Woolwich arsenal
is about the last place one might look
for a beauty specialist, yet it is right
in the center of that hive of death-
dealing machinery manufacture that
one can be found. Right in the heart
of this great arsenal a “women’s wel-
fare department” is presided over by a
lady superintendent, who has thousands
of girls under her care, to administer
to their ailments and care for their
complexions. It is from the high ex-
plosives and lyddite sections that the
girls mostly come for advice as to rest
from the dangerous work, which turns
their faces a yellow tint if proper care
and precautions are not taken in time.
Starting with about 100 girls, the wel-
fare department now has charge of
thousands. The girls are advised to
avoid jewelry, bangles and such vani-
ties, and they dress in neat blue, gray
or khaki overalls and eat at a smart
little Y. W. C. A. canteen, which is
decorated with pink walls and prettily
decked tables.
A hostel is already in being, built to
accommodate 750 girls just outside the
walls of the arsenal; several bunga-
lows have been erected to accommo-
date four or five girls in the coziest
riverside fashion, and plans are com-
plete for the accommodation of 6,000
more, who will have tennis, clubs and
other spare-time facilities. j

The committee on permanent organ-
ization reported seating as permanent
officers those who had been elected for
temporary service; the report also rec-
ommended that the members of the
county executive committee be named
as delegates to the state convention
and that each precinct in the county
name additional delegates not to ex-
ceed the present representation in the
county convention; that 25 delegates be
selected to the congressional and the
same number to the supreme judicial
convention; that all resolutions be re-
ferred to the committee on resolutions
and that debate on the convention
floor be limited to five minutes to each
person.
The reports of the committee on cre-
dentials and on permanent organization
were adopted without a dissenting vote,
but the report of the committee on res-
olutions did not fare so well. Boiled
down, the report of the committee on
resolutions approved the right of the
state to regulate its own affairs, espe-
cially with reference to the control and
regulation of railroads; that railroads
to which had been given rights to close
public roads and streets be made to
construct viaducts over the tracks for
the accommodation of pedestrians, with
especial reference to the case now be-
fore the people of Galveston; that the
candidacy of Charles A. Culberson, for
senator from Texas be indorsed; that
our delegates be instructed to urge the
name of James B. Stubbs as a mem-
ber of the state executive committee
from the seventeenth senatorial dis-
trict; that no proxies be allowed in the
state convention and that the county
delegates vote as a unit, the majority
rulling. The resolutions also made com-
plimentary reference to the adminis-
tration of President Woodrow Wilson

to the Culberson resolution and inti-
mated that it did not present the sen-
timent of the Democray of Galveston
county. On motion, the report of the
committee was adopted as a ■whole.
Mr. J. B. Stubbs favored the adoption,
of a resolution approving the adminis-
tration of Governor Ferguson. Mr.
Maco Stewart thought the matter
should not be agitated, Mr. H. B. Moore
moved that a blanket resolution in-
dorsing all the state and county offi-
cers who had received a majority vote
in the recent primary, to which Mr.
F. C. Pabst objected as being irrele-
vant. The Moore resolution prevailed,
and this. and the report of the resolu-
tions committee was carried with one
dissenting vote.

Little Prospect of Relief is Held Out
at That City.
By Associated Press.
Chicago, July 29.—Little relief from
the intense heat was held out by the
government forecaster here today. An
area of low barometric pressure which
last night reached North and South Da-
kota was reported in advices received
today to be gradually dying out and a
moderation in temperature in this sec-
tion was reported to be a dubious pos-
sibility.
Lake breezes tempered the heat in
Chicago only slightly today, and for
three successive nights the high mini-
mum record of this office has been
broken. The temperature at 11:30
o’cloth this morning was 94.
Twenty-six deaths from heat pros-
tration in Chicago were reported be-
tween 6 a. m. and noon today.
Announcement of a rise in the price
of ice from 30 to 40 cents a hundred
pounds was made by several of the
smaller Chicago dealers today.

Paris, July 29.—Two strong German
detachments, which attempted to reach
the French lines at a point west of
Vermandovillers, on the Somme front,
yesterday were repulsed, it was offi-
cially announced by the French war
department today.
In the region of the French fortress
of Verdun two German attacks on a
redoubt in the ravine south of Fleury
were checked. The French, the offi-
cial (Statement says, made some prog-
ress in the region of Thiaumont.
In the sector of the Fumin and Che-
nois woods an artillery duel continues.
The communication says:
“On the Somme front two strong
enemy detachments which attempted to
reach our lines west of Vermandovil-
lers were repulsed by rifle fire.
“On the left bank of the Meuse (Ver-
dun) a German attack upon our posi-
tions on Hill 304 broke down under our
fire. On the right bank two German
attacks during the nigt against a re-
doubt in the ravine south of Fleury
involved serious losses to the enemy.
“Our troops, continuing their minor
operations, carried portions of several
trenches north of Chapelle Saint Fine
and in the region of the Thiaumont
work, where we captured one machine
gun.
“The artillery duel is 'still lively in
the sectors of the Fumine and Chenois
woods.”
Aviation.—On the morning of July
27 a French aeroplane, piloted by
Quartermaster de Terline, attacked a
German machine that was flying over
Chalons, crashed into it and fell with
it to the ground.
In the region of Amiens our pursuing
aeroplanes fought 34 battles, in the
course of which five enemy machines
were forced to land in a damaged con-
dition.
“On the night of July 28 our bom-
barding squadrons carried out a num-
ber of operations. In all, 207' shells
were dropped on bivouacks, depots and
railway stations on the enemy’s front.”

The Galveston county Democratic
convention met at 10:30 this morning,
passed a number of resolutions, one of
which was the endorsement of candi-
date Culberson for election to the sen-
ate of the United States in the coming
run-off primary, and after naming
delegates to the state convention at
Houston, adjourned sine die.
Just prior to the meeting of, the con-
vention, the county Democratic execu-
tive committee met and canvassed the
returns of the Democratic primary
held on last Saturday; this work was
entrusted to a committee consisting of
M. B. Sweeney of the fourth precinct,
W. H. Smith of the seventh and Roy
H. Benson of the 16th. The result of
the canvass was in accordance with
the reports already published with the
exception of the election of constable
in precinct five, where there were two
candidates, each of whom received one
vote; according to the election law, in
such cases, the decision is to be made
by lot, and Chairman James B. Stubbs
tossed a coin in the air and Candidate
Hopper was declared the choice of the
people. Candidate Burgess for county
clerk was shown to have received the
highest vote cast for a county officer,
having received 5,804; Blackstone, can-
didate for superintendent of public
education, was the next highest, with
5,799 votes, and Gloor, for tax collector,
third, with 5,790 votes.
A proposition was submitted to the
committee that the assessment paid to
the committee by James M. Fendley,
who had announced as candidate for the
position of superintendent of public
instruction and who later withdrew
from the race, be refunded, was car-
ried; another motion that the secretary
of the executive committe be paid $100
for his services was also adopted Mr.
H. D. Boyd suggested that better fa-
cilities be provided for holding elec-
tions in the various precincts, by pro-
viding some sort of collapsible booth
with plenty of ventilation and lights,
and to this end a committee was ap-
pointed to prepare some plan; the com-
mittee consists of Messrs. Boyd, Ander-
son. Owens, Purcell and Wilson.
Chairman" James B. Stubbs of the
county executive committee called the
county convention to order promptly at
10:30 and stated that the work before
the body was the selection of delegates
to the state, the congressional and the
supreme judicial conventions, after ap-
proving of the finding of the executive
committee on the canvass of the county
vote.
On motion of Mr. Miles Crowley,
Judge E. D. Cavin was elected tem-
porary chairman of the convention,
George M. Abbott its secretary and H.
D. Boyd and D. J. Carter, sergeants at
arms. On motion committees were ap-
