CHICAGO, Jan. 2lst.-Senator
Logan denies to a reporter that it
was by his advice that Reed took
part in the defense of Guiteau, as
has been stated. He brushes away
as inconsequential in political
sense the fact that he said when
the sho )ting first occurred and has
maintained on the witness stand
that Guiteau was insane.

Mrs. Wallis Case.

There has been nothing Of so much in
terest 10 dramatic circles for long time,
says Il New York correspondent, as the
case of Mrs. Wall, who recently shot her
hushandina little village on Long Island.
remember her as IA character in the
"Shaughran,' and the recollection Of
her pretty face and figure was in strong
contrast with the grief-stricken woman
saw the other day. She could hardly
walk from her carriage into the corouer's
Office, and when she related the story of
the shooting she sobbed convulsively.
She had the sympathy Of her hearers,
and feeling Of relief was apparent
when the favorable verdict Of accidental
shooting was brought in. But as her
case has not been disposed Of by the Of
ficials on Long Island, she is still retain
ed as prisoner in the Raymond street
jail, in Brooklyn The moral may be
drawn from the story that the tragedy
has brought 10 light the infelicities Of
the young lawyer and his vivacious, i'm
pulsiye wife, that actresses should marry
In their profession. II is equally true
that young man gets on dangerous
ground when he allows himself TO be-
come infatuated with woman on the
stage and takes her from it to marry her
mot that an actress may not make a
devoted wife, but the restrictions of do
mestic life are apt to make her unhappy,
and the husband also suffers rs a matter
of course. There are some stories cur
rent that Mrs. Wall, or Lizzie Mccall
as she was known on the stage, has a
violent temper, and that she once made
an assault upon Mr.. Rice, when under
his management. But her conduct since
the shooting has LEFT little doubt in most
minds OF her innocence of criminal intent.

The fact that even dogs are inclined
to intemperance is unknown TO many
who hold them in high estimation but
such is the fact, especially bull and sptz
dogs. Mr. Sam Wyman, who keeps the
saloon on Ninth and Market, owns q
large bulldog who is confirmed drunk
ard. He has gotten so addicted to
drinking that he resorts to all sorts of
means to get beer, and sometimes shows
great cunning in getting drink of his
favorite beverage. The fact had become
generally known, and yesterday several
gentlemen determined to watch him
Every morning Mr.. Wyman sets his
emptied beer-kegs out on the sidewalk
for the collector and leaves the bung
out, there being alwaysmore or less beer
in the bottom of each keg. As soon as
the kegs were set down and the proprie-
tor gone inside the saloon the dog APP
preached from his post of observation,
and after smelling the kegs with the air
of connoisseur, selected the one which
he seemed TO think contained the most
beer and putting one of his paws against
it pushed the keg over. He then pro-
ceedcd to push the key until it got
close to the edge of the curbstone, and,
turning the bung down, got out into the
street, and AS the beer ran out eagerly
Tapped it up, This process was repeat
ed until every key had been drained,
and after licking the edges of tho kegs
the dog trotted of, evidently not having
gotten enough. This process the dog
repeats every day, and sometimes more
beer is left in the kegs for his benefit,
and he gets beastly drunk. Drinking,
however seems TO agree with him, as he
is very fat and sleepy-looking,
This instance brings to mind another
case of dog in indianapolis which
was very much addicted to drinking
The dog was known as cold Jack, F." and
was considered a member of the fire de-
partment, MS he always stayed at the en-
gine-house, and went TO every fire, ri
ding on the front of the engine, Next
to tho engino-house was saloon, where
he used to get beer in the same manner
as the dog in this city, and also used to
get drunk. About n year ago he went
out one day, and there happened to be
more beer than usual In the kegs, and
no accordingly got drunk. While he
was drinking an alarm was turned in
and the. engine passed him. He at-
tempted TO Jump on the seat In front,
btN was too drunk, and falling beneath
the wheels, was crushed 10 death. -

fashion Notes.
iuipure lace is revived.


Sicilienne is the stylish material for
Spring mantles.
Willow-leaf green is very light yell
lowish shade Of olive.
Sashes are so wide and long that no
other-skirt drapery is needed.
Embroidered apron oyerdresses. high
ly draped, are in great vogue with the
esthetically inclined.
The stylish blue shades are electric,
porcelain, soldier and sapphire blue.
Peacock blue is discarded
Shining rows of gold, silver, or bronze
snail-shells are seen upon the brims Of
new French bonnets and hats.
For plain walking and travelling suits
graylsh-blue goods, with red or brick
red satin cordings, are very becoming,
and much preferable to the old-fashion-
ed shades, such as garnet or wine color
Ribbons play an important part in the
entire costume this Spring no dress be-
ing finished without its large, loosely
knotted bows with broad, short ends, or
long loops of ribbon with long ends in
hip drapery at the back or side.
Dress skirts are surely growing fuller
and wider, and this decided tendency to
boulfant styles has, as history plainly
shows, been almost invariably the fore
runner OF crinoline, and crinoine we
are to have, unless scores of manufac-
turers, who have summoned their hith-
erto idle forces and begun the work
anew OF making hoop-skirts, have listen
ed to delusive rumor from over the
sea.
The coming bonnet is small and dain-
ty enough for Queen Titiana. 1t is
made of shirred null in delicate tints-
white, lavender and ecru-with lace
strings and knots of flowers. In the
same shape comes the Manila and Dun
stable straws with twisted trimming
OF velvet or surah, with strings of the
same. The ties on the new bonnets are
short and not intended to be worn in a
bow, but crossed over, only
A new wrap called the Worth visiten
is finding great favor, and is made in
silk, brocaded satin, surah, crap d'ete,
and cashmere. Those of cashmere and
other WOODEN textures are trimmed with
fringe with jet intermixtures, and those
OF silk or satin are deliberately trimmed
with wide lace RIFLES or chenille fringes
headed by elegant bands of beaded ap-
plique work in fine floral or arabesque
designs.
The large Gainsborough, Sir Joshua
Reynolds, Jaques Collet, and other mon
ster hats OF last season, will be quite as
fashonably worn during the coming
warm months as they have been in the
past In shape the new STYLES follow
the old very closely, showing the brims
rolled up here and crushed in there, in
properly airy and picturesque manner
OF bats Of this kind These immense
head coverings are to be literally
smothered with ostrich tips and sprays
of flowers
Short "levitesn are TO be much worn
by young ladies. They consist of a
short mans coat with small standing
collar, and are quite different from Eng
fish Jackets which are more like the
weston The Dorsey levite, with a
full skirt, is very stylish; it is difficult
to make and still more difficult to wear,
and will consequently retain its cachet
and not become common. This gar
mcnt closes at the waist by means OF
two buttons, showing underneath vest
OF satin, or MORE.

What Ais YOu?

Unless the food is properly prepared in
the stomach it becomes corrupt and poisons
the system It is intended to nourish. Dys-
pepsia and its accomplishments are bad
breath, headache, constipation, piles, bilious
ness and depression of spirits. Sufferers
with dyspepsia experience rapid and per-
manent cure by the use of Simmons Liver
Regulator. 1t is purely vegetable and
pleasant to the taste. A half-tabespoonful
of the Regulator, taken after eating, ensures
good digestion.
