The arrest of five men last Friday night
and their, subsequent illegal sentence tothe
House e Of Correction by magistrate List,
has created quite an excitement in Judicial
and political circles. The men were taken
from their beds, charged with vagrancy
and committed, without hearing: and
Judge Briggs, despite the fact that it was
shown before him !by reputable citizen,
that tMoeof them at t,leaat, hadworked for
long time, and were then even technically
in his employ, wouldn't let them go on
habeas corpus but renanded them to Gus

the addle-headed Judge, who couldn't
have shown his utter disregard for Justice
and common rights, and his weakened
subseryience to the ITalmud of local ring

imbecility publicly, wouldn't listen to ar
gument at all, andIconsisned the prisoners
to their loathsome cells. ,..,,r. ,,s,.
The case will come UP again tomorrow,

Chestnut Street and showing their new
clothes. This vast female army is now
to begin its autumn march. It
is now engaged in the all important busi-
ness of shopping, dressed in the darkest
summer clothing that its members have, or
perhaps last Falls suits. The present is a
'ort of transition season. Very few autumn

hats will be worn by every one who de-
'ires to be considered fashionable. In the
meantime new goods and garments have
made their appearance in sufficient num-
oers to enable the observer to predict what
will be Worn. In dress materials the pre-
vailing styles will be the very heavy and
rough meige cloths. These look as if
hey had been woven and then exposed in
