Late FashionNotes.

Short jacket-bodices are quite the
success of the season.
Silk gloves are still stylish in all
colors.
In hats, they do not differ much
from those OF month or two ago, ex
cept the brims are narrower.
Striped or checkered goods are gener
ally combined with plain cashmere fol
walking costume.
One of the materials most in favor
for Autumn wear is double twilled
mohair. Dresses of this material are
made very plain.
Blige is the favorite tint of the sea
son, and is seen in cashmere as well as
French and Indian silks.
For dinner and evening toilets moth
ing is more in vogue than skirts striped
either lengthways or across, with lace
or embroidery insertion, strips Of rib
bon or velvet
Mantles will be shorter. The redln
cote is also a favorite model theii
wooden tissue of some dark shade is
most preferred too.

Reuben E. Fent0n Dies Sudd emily.

A special from jamestown, N, Y, states
denly, while at his desk in the First Ma tional
bank, OF which he was president. Cashier
Morgan stepped into the room to consult
him and saw the ex-governor with his head
leaning upon the chair and breathing heavi-
ly. He hurried to him and the clerks called
a physician, but death resulted soon after,
He was discovered in an unconscious con-
dition. 1t is thought that death resulted
from heart disease.
Reuben f. Fenton was born at Carroll,
Chautauqua county, N. Y, July /, 1919.
He was educated at Pleasant Hill and Fred
erica academies, and adopted the profession
of law, but soon abandoned its practice to
engage in mercantile pursuits, in which he
was eminently successful.
In 1853 he entered the Thirty third con-
gress as one of the New York representa-
tives. He was next elected to the Thirty
fifth congress as Republican. In 1859 he
was reelected to the Thirty-sixth congress.
He was also elected to the Thirty
and Thirty eighth congresses. He resigned
his seat in the Thirty-eighth Congress to
accept the governorship Of New York, to
which he had been elected by majority of
1923 over Horatio Seymour Dem.). He
was reelected in 1886. On the 10th of
January, 1868, he was elected to the
United States senate for the term ending in
1875, and served on the committees on
finance and the pacific railways. After his
retirement from the senate Mr.. Fenton
took an active interest in politics, but held
no official position.

Lynchins ut Sturgis, Dakota.

Deadwood Special: The coroner's in
quest in the case OF DR.. H. P. Lynch. assas-
sinated while seated reading in his store at
Sturgis, resulted in q verdict eliminating
Ross Hollis, corporal OF Company A,
Twenty fifth infantry, who is under arrest.
1t has developed recently that Hollis as
sauIted a woman of the town in a shame
full manner, breaking number OF her ribs,
and inflicting other serious injuries. DR..
Lynch, called to attend the woman, indig-
nantly denounced Hollis, threatening to
file a criminal complaint against him.
This threat. coupled with jealousy in
the belief that Lynch was too at
tentive to the injured woman, ranked in
the mind OF Hollis, when he deserted the
post as guard, exchanged clothing with
and borrowed a six-shooter Of friend,
sneaked into the store. shot his victim and
escaped. Upon receiving the verdict OF the
coroner's jury, the populace at Sturgis be-
came greatly excited. and proceeded to
the calaboose, overpowered the two guards,
took the prisoner to q secluded point back
OF the Catholic church and hanged him.
AuIaors of the intention offriends of Hollis
to burn the town intensified the excite
ment, and people armed themselves for an
emergency. A company of soldiers from
Fort Meade remained in town over night,
but no demonstration occurred.

Half-Hreed Trick Exposed.

Washington Special: Special Agent Gard
nsr telegraphed Secretary Lamar that, after
issuing number of certificates to the Tur-
tie Mountain Ciippewas in Dakota Tor lands
on which these Indians desire TO settle and
own in severalty, he had returned TO the
land office at Devils Lake and found that
the half-breeds had been filing entries as
citizens He asked if be should return to
the reservation and cancel the severaity
certificates. Mr. Lamar at once advised
render their filings void ii they &C
cepted severalty certificates. There are
in the neighborhood OF one thou
sand half-breeds in the tribe who have
played this sharp trick on the department.
They call themselves Indians, and draw
supplies as SUCH Under the law passed
last July, an Indian may file on home
stead exactly as white man except that
he pays no fees, congress having Approprl-
ated money for that purpose, and that the
United States holds the lands thus entered
for twenty-five years in trust for the sole
use and benefit of the Indian by whom said
entry shall have been maIs, or in case OF
his decease, OF his widow and heirs. Al
the expiration OF twenty-five years the
United States agrees to convey the land by
patent to the Indian or heirs. but the sharp
Turtle Mountain Indians prefer to Tile as
citizens and then sell their lands for lew
hundred dollars. After selling them in this
way and spending the money, they come In
for their supplies under the annual appro-
priations in the same manner as the simon
pure red man. 1t is safe to say that the
half-breeds who prefer to file their entries
as citizens will be compelled to live as cfti-
zens without any further aid from the gov
erpment.

Bismarck Tribune: An intelligent, am.
bilious young man and blue-eyed, ruby
Tipped little lady occupied the same seat in
one hePullman sleepers on. an east-bound
train. A Tribune representative entered
into conversation with q gentleman near
by, who impaired the information that
the young couple had just entered upon
their martial career. having been married
in the Yellowstone Park, where they met
for the first time. The young lady was
Miss Clara Bernstein OF Cincinnati, and the
young groom Mr.. Frank Williams Of San
Francisco. The young couple met in the
park and the rapidity with which cupid
manipulated the silvery chords OF love,
fastened them at either end, and clenched
them at both sides, was such as to
give the case the romantic name Of
'love at first sight" The young lady
delphia and several college friends, all OF
whom protested against her maniies-
tations OF affection for one with whom she
had no acquaintance. But the young
man was dignified ane gallant, and seemed
worthy Of the love which the fair Clara be-
slowed. After O weeks sojourn together
amid the many tinted wonders OFT the park,
the couple were engaged and made the fact
known to their friends and companions.
The young mans worth and responsibility
were proven by prominent tourists in the
park; the young lady's modesty and wom-
anly simplicity were sufficient guarantees
of her character, and three weeks from the
day of meeting the lovers were united in
wedlock by Rev. D. C. Burnett OF Florida,
who was among the visitors. The mar
riage took place within twenty yards OF
Old Faithful geyser, and the wedding was
celebrated by grand open air dance and
jollification. The couple are on their we'd
ding tour. They will visit New York and
then return to their future home at the
golden gate OF the Pacific slope.

illegal Expenditures stopped.


The first controller Of the treasury has
made . ruling, in effect, that the employ
ment Of twenty four persons borne on the
rolls of the court OF Alabama claims is en-
tirely without warrant OF law, and that no
payments can legally be made from the
treasury on that account in the future.
Andrev II. Allen, disbursing agent OF the
court recently made requisition on the
secretarv OF the treasury for IS, 900 to meet
the current expenses OF the court In the
usual course al business the requisition
came before the first controller, and he de-
cided to make an investigation Of the affairs
OF the court before authorizing the issue Of
the necessary warrants. His conclusions
are summarized in the following statement
for publication:
The court OF commissioners for Alabama
claims was created in 1874, to hear proof OF
claims to be paid out Of the $15, zoo, 900
awarded by the Geneva commission, and
was continued by various acts until Dec.
81, 1877. 1t was constituted offive judges,
with an annual salary OF $4,000 each, q
clerk at So, 900, a stenographer at $500,
and an attorney to represent the United
States, at $4,000. Provision was also
made for rent OF court room, furniture,
stationery, fuel and other necessary in
cidental expenses, all Of which were to be
paid out Of said fund before Judgment was
paid. The court was reorganixed in 1882,
with the same officers and judges as before,
except that the number Of judges was re-
duced TO three. The controller, in investi-
eating the case, found that, outside OF the
above named officers, there were on the pay
roll the names OF assistant counsel for the
United States, clerk to said counsel ex-
perts, clerks to experts, messengers, watch
men, ETC., whose aggregate salaries amount
ed to about $84, 800 per year. He also

A Royal Cow.


Mrs. Samuel NJ. Shoemaker, says the
Baltimore Sun, has lost by death from in
fiamation OF the lungs the world-renowned
COW Princess Second, which astonished the
world by giving in seven days a yield OF
forty-six pounds and ten and a hall ounces
OF butter. This test OF her butter qualities
was completed April 10, 1885. Some time
after the tests the blankets were taken off
rather suddenly. it is thought, and she took
a cold, from which she never recovered.
She was magnificent animal, OF great
vitality and force, as well as a fine butter
producer. One Of the secrets Of her immense
yields OF butter was her great vitality
and appetite. During the very height OF
the test, when she was fed as large
quantities OF buttcr-producing food as
it was thought she could safely bear, she
broke loose one night and consumed over
200 pounds OF prepared food in a box in the
stable. About two years ago Mrs. Shoe
maker refused $25, 900 for her. She was
years and six months old when she died.
She was an imported COW, and was bought
at auction in New York for 81 500. She
was at the celebrated Coomassie strain.
from home OF Mrs. Shoemaker for Sic, 900,
but the sale did not stand, Mrs. Shoemaker
refusing to ratify it on her return.
While the Burnside Park Jersey herd has
sustained great loss in the death Of Princess
Second, it is thought her place will be more
than filed by a noble cow OF grand ply
sique of the same strain. This animal,
Oxford Kate, near relative OF Princess
Second has already record OF thirty-nine
pounds twelve ounces OF butter in seven
days, which is already second to Princess
Second, and as she has never been pushed,
it is believed she can beat the foremost rec
ord. The father of this COW sold for S., so.
All the Burnside herd are in fine condition.

1t is stated ON what appears to be
good authority that the Oklahoma
boomers have at last dispersed and
will no longer remain in camp. This
action on their part is largely the re-
suit of the action of the administra-
ton concerning the issue of leases and
occupancy of the cattle syndicates in
the Indian Territory. The proclama-
tion of the President meets with uni
versal favor among the people and has
inspired the greatest confidence, since
it is evident that the administration
intends to deal with equal fairness by
all classes of people, and he feels as
sured that there will be no further
trouble on the border of the Indian Ter
ritory. 1t is reported that the admins
tration has a plan for purchasing SO
much of the Oklahoma country as the
Indians do not need, and of throwing it
openfor settlement upon fair terms. 1t
is represented as the finest agricultural
tract of land in the whole country.

was religious celebration at La Pointe,
to commemorate the fifteenth anniversary
OF the coming OF Bishop Baraga. Father
Frederick Baraga arrived at La Pointe,
July 81, 1885, and commenced the build
ing of church. In 1841, the church being
found too small to accommodate the large
congregation OF Indians, half-breeds and
whites, new and larger church was built
on the site where it now stands, the old
one being situated near Middle Fort, near
the old French fort of 171S, The eelebra-
ton was also to commemorate the twenti-
eth anniversary OF the first foundation of
this mission by Father Allouez, Dablon

sion then being on the west shore OF Ash

A spring wheat report from Mime

that the "spring yields will be decidedly
short and there will be even more sem
sible lowering OF the average grade. In
the south harvestingis practically end
ed, except as to flax, and threshing is
under way. Even after that shell have
been finished it will be long before any
trustworthy estimate can be made,
because of the extreme unevenness OF
this years crop in localities near to

than from IL TO Is bushels per acre.

better than No. 3. and Of the whole

this section. The best reports come
from the line of the Northern Pacific
and the northern extensions OF the
lines of the Manitoba. Through the
Red River Valley reports of greater
damage from blight than had been ex-
pected are very numerous. The early
estimates from particular points vary
from twelve to twenty bushels pr
acre, and there are large number
which state that last years crop fig
ures will not be reached by from 10 to

Parnell's Latest Proclamation.
tho hannret To Mr. Parnall in DnhliI

At the banquet to Mr.. Parnell in Dublin
q few days ago, loyal toasts were omit
ted. Mr.. Parnell eulogized his followers for
their courage and self-denial. He said
there was only one thing on their pro-
..gramme, to restore the Irish parliament.
When the parliament assembled in Dublin,
it would develop the Healy clauses OF the
land act, make tenants owners OF their
holdings, and to secure to laborers u share
in the land. Mr.. Parnell dwelt upon the
Importance of securingloyal and self-deny-
ing members in the next parliament for the
final battle for home rule, before which he
hopes to pass further remedial measures.
He sketched the tasks of the Dublin parlia-
ment, which would consist OF single
chamber. He hoped that the coming party
you'd be strong enough to restore the in
dependence OF Ireland. Justin Mccarthy
presided at the banquet. In Sackville street
an enormous crowd collected and cheered
necessarily during the banquet.

Persons on intimate terms with the
members OF the Grant family say that
they have never for a moment enter
tanned the thought of removing the re-
mains of the General from Riverside
Park to Washington, or any other
place, and that the removal will never
be made with their consent. Before
they accepted the present site for the
tomb they all agreed upon it as the
most desirable under the circum-
stances, and the most agreeable to
them, collectively and individually,
that could be chosen. The grave of the
hero will unquestionabiy remain where
it is, and any and all discussions ofthe
likelihood or possibility of change is
declared to beextremely painful to the
widow, as well as to her daughter, her
sons and their wives.
