Art and fashion are involved with each
other now as never befole. Not only do
the designers of elaborate toilets reasonably
claim TO exercise artistic taste, for much
originality and beauty are often put into
the work, but genuine painters are en-
ployed 10 decorate dresses. Usage in the
most pretentious New York circles author
izes the wearing of exceedingly fine gowns
at dinners, and the apparel at the best balls
hardly shows such unique garments as are
seen IN dlning-rooms on occasions of fash
lonable eating and drinking. The aim is
to wear something unlike anybody else S
garb, and to effect this the silk or satin of
dress is often painted by hand in water
colors or oil. An artist acquaintance OF
mine, whose works on canvas have fire.
quently been good enough 10 be admitted
10 the Academy of Design, was bemoaning
the fact that American buyers prefer
foreign to native pictures, irrespective OF
merits.
When man has to go to painting live
women instead of his own creations" he
bitterly growied, Il think it is time for him
to throw down the brush and take I'D a
shovel
He explained that he had taken several
commissions to decorate women's dresses az
q means Of subsistence, and that he was re-
tanned by leading dressmaker for that sort
OF work. But he declared that he would
never again do what he did in one iu-
stance, which was to use his brush on
fabric that at the tin e Enclosed the owner.
The belle had insisted that the figures
painted on the waist of her dress. though
they looked well in themselves, were not
shaded so as to be effective when she had it
on. Therefore she wished the artist to come
to her house and touch up his work when
she had !. % her person. That be regarded

WOODRUFF.

The town of Woodruff, a station on
the B, & NJ. between Long Island and
Republican City is growing very rapid
ly. The town, although scarcely a year
old, can boast of a number of enter
prising business men, who represent
nearly all kinds OF business, and who
are striving to compete with neigh
boring towns that have heretofore en-
joyed a large trade from the territory
now claimed by it. Several new build
ings are now in the course Of erection,
among which is a hotel or boarding
house, by A. NJ. Caster. Woodruff
with its grain market, Touring mill,
lumber yard, newspaper and other bus
mess enterprises, IS destined to become
a town second to none, as q business
point, along the branch.

A Free-For-AiL

A grand scrimmage occurred a few
miles east of Phillipsburg, on last
Tuesday night and from the conflicting
reports we strike the following general
average.
r. 3. Durks, our former barber,
went out to his place on Tuesday night
in a state not very conducive to peace
and harmony and in some way got into
an alteration with Wn. johnson and at
length Durks became exasperated and
made demonstrations to shoot Johnson
but believing that the gun was only a
club, he paid no attention TO it until
Durks drew up the gun to shoot, VIXEN
johnson turned and fed. At this juno
ture Lee Galbreth appeared on the scene
but was not noticed by Durks who was
in the act of shooting. Galbreth
struck him q hard blow in the back Of
the head at the moment the gun was
discharged and no harm was done to
Johnson, but Durks was carried to the
house insensible, where he was waited
on late that evening by DIR. HOUck who
states that his case is very precarIous.

GEO. W. srINsON.

The man whose name heads these
lines Will be a candidate for reelection
to the Office of County Attorney. In
referring to Mr.. StinsOn's candidacy d,
we desire to state that he entered the
volunteer service as Second Lieutenant,
Co. K, LIST Iowa Inf. at the age of q
years. and participated in the early
battles for the union, among which was
the battle of Wilson Greek, where the
lst Iowa Regiment earned a reputation
that was brayely maintained by Iowa
soldiers during the civil war. He came
to Phillips county among its earliest
settlers and has taken an active and
conspicuous part in the building up and
development OF our county. Two years
ago Mr.. StinsOn was elected and has
since faithfully performed the duties Of
the Office OF County Attorney. During
his term OF Office he has carefully look
ed after the interests of Phillips County.
In the prosecution Of criminal cases he
has been diligent and has shown an
ability to successfully prosecute against
the leading criminal attorneys of the
State. In the Sims-DOdge murder case
Mr.. SunsOn fatty refused assistant
counsel, and thus made a saving to the
county of 5000 attorney fees. Sims was
convicted and sentenced to % years inn
prisOnment, Among other acts per
formed by MIR. StinsOn in the interest
of the citizens Of Phillips county was
his success in relieving the taxpayers
from the contract for steel jall cells
which would have cost the county about
$4,000. We believe the voters and tax
payers of the county will concede that
Mr.. StinsOn has well and faithfully per-
formed the duties OF his office; that if
the Republican nominating convention
gives him a second nomination, it
would be met at the November election
by s. good round majority.
