Gentlemen,s Clothing.

There are no marked changes in cut
ding gentlemen's clothing, though pam
falcons are narrower than those of last
season, and all coats are shorter, includ-
ing the Prince Albert frock-c0ats, dress
coats, morning cut-aways, sacks, and
also overcoats. The SUIT for business,
travelling, and morning wear is made
entirely from one piece of English or
Scotch suiting in neat plaids, checks, or
mixtures of color. The coat may be
sack with one or four buttons, or an
English cut-away with the same number
of buttons. The vest, cut high like the
coat, has collar or not, according to
the fancy of the wearer. The trousers
are very close-ftting The semi-dress
suit for church and afternoon wear is
really the day dress suit, as it is worn to
all entertainments given in the daytime,
such as afternoon teas, receptions and
weddings. This consists of q Prince
Albert double-breased frock-coat of
black or dark blue twilled cloth-young
men prefer dark blue with marked d.
agonal lines; this coat is finished with
silk facings, and the vest of the same
cloth is cut very high to match the coat,
so that only very little of the folded scarf
Is shown below the collar. The trousers
are made of heavy cloth with dark neat
stripes, usually having q gray effect,
but no special color prevails for these.
The dress suits remain unchanged in
shape, except that the coats are shorten
ed trifle. The most glossy West of
England broadcloth is used for this
swallow-tail coat and the vest, which is
cut low in front to match il, and these
are the only garments now made of
broadcloth for men of fashion. Silk
facings may be used on such coats, or
they are omitted, as the wearer directs.
The narrow trousers are of heavy doe
skin of the same lustrous black used for
the coat. Young men of fashion now
wear this suit to all entertainments in
the evening, putting it on for six O'Clock
dinners, making evening calls in it,
wearing it to the theatre, where former
ly it was seldom seen, and going thence
to receptions. Overcoats are made of
Elysians and fur beaver cloths, and are
most often sacks, slightly shorter than
those of last year, but occasionally q
surtout overcoat is ordered. Blue, brown
and black are the colors used, without
preference for either. Harper's Bazaar.

DIED.

Jepe Belknap died at the residence of his
son Ransome near Monroe, in this county,
on the 10Th day of Nov. A. D. 1881, near
80 years of age.
The deceased was born in Chany Valley,
Chenango county, in the state of New York
on the 9th day of JAN, 1892, where he
was raised, and in 1871 was married to Miss
Jane Clearinghouse, who died only four years
ago on the 10th day of last December.
While quite young man he removed from
the place of his birth with his young wife to
the state of Kentucky, from whence he went
to Ohio and from there in 1889 to Iowa.
After remaing in the latter state until 1S4S.
he started from there across the plains with
his. family, arriving in the fall of that year
in the willamette valley, where he with a
few others in those pioneer days, formed the
Belknap settlement, where he has ever since
lived and where he finally passed away. He
was the father Of seven children, six of
whom survive him. At the time of his
death he had remained a consistent member
of the M. E. Church for 66 years, and had
lived to see his fourth generation. For sew
eral years before his death he had been
affected through the kidneys and hips to
such an extent that it was quite inconve-
nient for him to travel around comfortably
and on last Saturday at IL o'clock, noon, he
passed away without any further apparent
affiiction except perhaps his extreme old age.

We are in an awful fix; inexorable bust
ness demands the attendance of both pfopri-

there is an apparent '.goneness" about our
Office The seniors brogans are missed from
their wonted place at an angle of forty-five
degrees above the corner desk; the juniors
briarwood pipe reclines listlessly upon
the table before (which his vacant tripod
stands, and the editorial mantle falls crush
ingly upon the shoulders of the generally
useful sub-local middle-man of the office.
With courageous timidity we assume the
honors, but the plethoric seniors chair don't
fit us and the desk won't hold our pedals.
The juniors fighting boots grin at us from
the farther corner as if to tantalize us with
our helplessness when the irate comes, for
we can't wear them. The obstreperous
scissors fail to find us what we want, and
as we vainly rack our brain for the cintila-
tions. of genius which we thought dwelt
there, the printer, with satanic delight, born
of early apprenticeship, glides in and gently
whispers copy, and thus we enjoy the first
extatic thrill of editorial bliss.

THE CIRCUIT CoURT.-The Circuit Court
is in session this week but as it adjourned
for Thanksgiving. yesterday, only three
days have been occupied With the business
of the court and much of that time used in
getting the cases at issue, or taking the
usual defaults. Only two jury cases have
been tried One the case of Sdsan Staums
VS. Geo. Wagner in which case the jury
returned verdict of so; the other is the
case of the State of Oregon VS. Latan and
Eliza Saunders charged with Larceny, but
as we went to press Wednesday evening
the jury are out at the present writing.
There are several cases of interest that will
come up for trial during the term, which
will perhaps last during the whole of Eext
week.

LOOK OUT FOR TRAMPs. Tuesday as
Lewis Edwards was on his way to his team
hitched on Front St, intending to start for
home, he discovered a tramp abstracting a
blanket from his hack, which he dropped
over the river bank upon some brush be-

of borrowing things Mr.. Edwards hunted up
the Marshal and had the fellow arrested,

night in order to prosecute the case he let
him go again rather than be detained. We

EDITORS GAZETTE:-PermIt me nearing
through small space in your. paper, as
wish to speak to the members of Monument
al No. 2, of the fire department. and don't
know how else to do SO as can't take the
time to hunt them up. First, then. what
are we going to do? We have now been or.
ganized over seven months and we have not
had a drill in more than half that time, and
hardly enough for a quorum for several
meetin,s past and last month we did not
meet at all: and some members now say
that is the last of the company. The only
excuse l have heard for it is finding fault
about the way our engine was moved, and
they don't care what becomes of the compa-
ny because We failed to get any satisfaction
about it, &c. Now, to be sure that was not
very pleasan affair and if we had any
means of getting satisfaction ought to
have it, but to leave the matter where it is
won't end it in my opinion. If the bell
calls us out one of these stormy nights, with
no lights about onr engine or any provided
anywhere and two-thirds or more of our
members fail to put in an appearance at the
fire, the probability is that we all run moro
or less risk of accidents for want of better
discipline, and besides, as regular fremen
we are liable to answer to the fire board for
non appearance at the fire, to say nothing
of criticism and censure. Next Monday
night is our regular meeting night and let
us get together and either take steps to re-
orgaize or disband at once. No. 2.

IT must be very pleasing to the
devoted admirers Of General Gar
lleld to note that whenever Presi-
dent Arthur 10 not exchanging af-
fectionats greetings with Grant he
10 in the embrace of Copkling. SEN
stor John P. Jones, q thorough
bred StalwArt, fills out the picture
when neither Grant nor Conkling
are handy. 1t is quite true that
Arthur has . right to be cordial to
his friends, and that he would not
be worth tho snuff Of candle ifhe
were not, but there is nothing to
console the friends of Garfield In
this obvious fact. Guiteau shot
Garfield through an Insane mans
belief that, thereby, things would
be- turned upside down in the Re-
publican party. That bis idea,
though evolved from tho brain OF
. lunatic, has been measurably re-
allied, there is not now much room
for doubt.
