Something About Masks.

to the inventive genius of the designer.
Whatever the new designs may be,
however, the drop or curtain mask
will ever continue TO be the favorite, as
it has for centuries past, and simply
because it is the most convenient thing
in its line ever invented. In point of
comfort il leads without regard to the
costume worn, and is thorough dis

MASKS are made mainly in France
and Germany. The better class of
goods come from France The cheap
and hideous cardboard or papier
mache affairs are made in Germany.
The very latest thing we have in masks
are gradually forcing the oldfashioned
German ones out of market, and are
made of light wire netting. such as is
used in the making of fine sieyes. They
are formed to represent the faces OF
young women, wrinkled hags, men of
every age, with whiskers attached or
not, and when in use are very natural
looking, owing to their tint As the
wearer's complexion shows through,
their naturalness is heightened. Some
have movable chins, which enable the
wearer to eat, drink or smoke in nat
ural manner without removing them.
Here is one representing huge face.
You will notice that the wrinkles are
perfect, being bent in wire and artisti-
cally touched up. By simply opening

so far as the present business depression
is concerned, / believe that it is due to the
constant threats of free traders, and the fear
of the manufacturer and the importer of rad

country would have anything posi-

are afraid TO. Every time that it has been

A Clark County Farmers Institute will
be in session at the Court House, on the

hope we do not need to urge that all farm

is attractive and suggestive and the farm
ers OF the present day need all the infor-
nation that they can, in any way, obtain.
But another class should also attend the
sessions of this Institute Our city friends
are also largely interested in the topics
which are to be discussed, and they shonld
embrace the opportunity OF meeting their
country neighbors, socially, and of seeking
methods Of cooperation with them in be-
half of measures of mutual and common
interest. One matter in which city and
country people are both interested is the
disposal of the refuse gathered in our
streets and on the premises of property.

MURDERED FOR INSURANCE,
Investigation of a Suspicious Case a,
Hunters Point, Long Island,

The coroner Of Paterson, N. j., accompa-
MED by the chief of police and the coroner of
Hunters Point, Long Island, and a couple of
physicians, went to the Lutheran cemetery
near the latter place to exhume the body of a
woman. On the way Chief of Police Grant
told a representative of the Associated Press
the following story: For two years pasta fam
lily named Bauer, occupying a highly respecta-
BILE position in society, resided at Haledon,
near Paterson.
The Bauers had previously resided in New
York City. and appeared to be people of
wealth. Early last June Mrs. Bauer was ia
ken sick, and after ten days illness died, as
certified by the attending physician of peri
tonitis. Mr.. Baue seemed to feel the loss of
his wife deeply, and had an expensive funer-
al. The memory of the late Mrs. Bauer had
almost died out when some strange rumors
got atioat which startled the community.
1t was learned that Mrs. Bauer had been
heavily insured in several compa-
MES and some peculiar circumstances
surrounding her illness and death led to the
suspicion that she had been murdered in Or
der to obtain the amount of insurance and
defraud the companies. The total amount of
insurance or Mrs. Bauer's life was S53. 0O1.
1t is understood that the Equitable and New
York life insurance com anies paid the
amounts OF their policies before rumors of the
fraud got abroad. The officers of the Mutual
Reserve company, after consulting other COM
panies decided to refuse payment until
thorough investigation had been made. The
cries when advanced that Mrs. Baner had
been poisoned or that she had been taken
away and another body or dummy buried in
the cemetery.
Arriving at the cemetery the coffin was e1-
humed and opened. Upon being measured
the body was found to be six inches shorter
than Mrs. Bauer's when she was alive. One
of the physicians who had examined Mrs.
Bauer when the application for insurance was
made, said she had a pug nose and light
hair, while the corpse had Grecian nose and
dark hair, but he would not be positive of all
the particulars. Drs. Satterthwaite and
Chesman, of New York, then opened the body
and took out the intestines, which they ex-
amined and sealed up. They refused to give
the result of the examination in New York,
where the entestines have been taken. The
body was placed again in the coffin and re-
inferred. Louis Bauer the husband, to whom
all the policies are payable, carries on a gro
Gerry in New York.
