HER GARTER IN COURT.
The UnpatriOtic Zeal of some Festive
Germans with Their Red, White and
Blue.

From the London Times.
A singular trial has just taken place
before the criminal tribunal OF COlmar.
There is a traditional usage in Alsace,
evidently a relic Of ruder times, that at
the close Of a marriage feast the bride
gives one Of her garters to the brides
groom's best man. who forthwith divides
1t into pieces, which are divided among
the guests.
Tne niece of the BurgOmaster Of Orsch-
weller, near Schiet1stadt, vas lately mar
ried to a resident Of Uttenhem. The
chief public authorities Of all three places
were present at the festivities, and the
traditional ceremony was observed.
The garter happened TO be of silk ribbon,
striped red, white, and blue. Following
the usual custom, the gentlemen wore
their fragments of the garter pinned at
the coat buttonhole. One Of the guests,
the proprietor Of hotel at Schlettstadt,
happening TO be at the railway station of
that town next merning, was upbraided
by the guard Of the trainfOr mis- disloyalty
in haunting the French tricolor in a Ger
man town, and so endangering the public
peace.
The pubhcprosecutor heard Of the affair,
and at once instituted criminal proceed
ings against all the male guests, includ-
ing the three burgOmasters, tor publicly
displaying fragments or the offending
garter. He based bis proceedings on an
ordinance passed by the French ProVi-
siOnal Government IN the revolutionary
period Of 1913, fOrbidling the display Of
emblems calculated 90 disturb the public
peace; but the Colmar tribunal acquitted
the accused on the ground that all the
circumstances negatIved the suggestion
that they intended TO make a political
demonstration or to irritate German feel
ing by displaying a French emblem.
Much ridicule has been heaped on the
public prosecutor for falling back on an
obsolete French ordinance to punish "A
supposed display Of affection toward
France.

Our American ballet.

From the PrOrfdonc6 journal.
Then the ballet came bouncing in. In
the front row were the pupils OF the Amer
lean Ballet School. The great North
American heart Of the audience bounded
with an overwhelming sense Of the ma
tlonal pride when the twelve pupils came
gallopinQ down toward the tOotlights like
so many risky young colts. Most Of them
were IN the vicinity Of 10 years old, aud
they were lOngitudinally vast. In the
matter Of breadth they were not worth
considering seriously. They stood In two
neat and correct little rows, aud burst
into twelve queer little smiles that looked
like twelve inlantilo copies Of the dear and
familiar old ballet girl smile, which mas
haunted mankind for decades. Then they
placed their twenty-iour arms akmbO,
and at q beat Of the leaders, baton their
white boots began to ily about in the most
reckless aud astonishing manner. Tho

The Buffalo in Colorad o.

The buffalo which has long been
known as the noblest animal native to
this region. has become almost extinct
having been hunted to death, and is
now found mostly in portions Of Mon
tana and Dakota. 1t is a mild, shy an
imal, its characteristics being similar
to those domestic cattle. The male is a
proud strong minded animal, and is fa.
nous for its magnificent proportions
and stately air. Buffalo can run no
taste: than horses, and are thus easily
uvertaken and captured. Hunters
spring upon them from behind bluffs;
they become startled, and rush head
long in the greatest confusion, By rea-
son of which they always take the
wrong course, and are almost invaria-
bly, captured.
They are so scarce now that their
heads are very valuable. Six years ago
these heads sold for 81, now they sell
for fromS rs to $3.50. They are consid-
cred invaluable in a matter of collec-
tions, none, however small, being con-
sidered complete without them. Last
year an Engllshman who was visiting
Colorado paid the eXorbitant price of
$3.50 for pair of heads which he
bought here, and considered the finest
he had ever seen.
The buffalo in the mountains are
much darker than those on the plains.
They are of rich brown color, the
shades in their fur varying from the
darkest to the palest brown. Between
these shades there are many lovely
golden hues of deep color, which are
never so we'll seen as when the skins are
spread out before an open, blazing fire.
The reflection of the freight brings out
the varying shades as nothing else will .
and makes them subject of universal
comment among lovers of the beautiful.

May Children Go Barefoot ?


This question is every now and again
proposed for discussion and, when it
is SO, we are compelled TO give the sam Q
answer. On physiological grounds il is
manlfestly sound practice to accus :
tom children to develop the circulatory
and muscular systems OF the lower ex :
tremities, precisely Us those of the hand
are developed, by free use and exposure.
1t is not supposed to beelther necessary
or desirable that children should wear
gloves for hygienic purposes. When
the hands of the little folks are thus
decorated the parental ,lea is confes-
sedly to give them iwh 1t is convention
ally regarded as genteel appearance.
No one thinks child ought TO be pro-
tected from the weather so far as its
hands are concerned. On the contrary
it is recognized that the upper extremi-
ties should be kept warm by exercise
ana habitual exposure.
Precisely the same view holds good
with regard to the lower extremities.
Contact with bodies that abstract heat,
even more than the. earth abstracts it,
is an almost constant condition OF Child
life. In short, it Is entirely in defer
ence TO fashion ana the usages of sOcie-
ty that children wear foot coverings.
There is much to be said in favor OF a
more natural practice. rhe foot IS an
organ of wondIous complexity, regard
ed as bony aud muscular apparatus.
1t is. moreover, provided with nerves
and blood vessels of especial intrIcacy.
The softest and most flexible shoe, to a
very great extent, and boot almost
entirely, reduces this organ to the char
acter of a jointed block with little self
movement. Obviously this reduction
must detract not only from the eff cien-
cy of the foot, but Of the organism as a
whole. If the blood vessels of the foot
and legs are fully developed, as they
can only when the foot is habitually y
exposed, the quantity of blood which
the lower extremitIes can be made to
receive and, if need b., attract for a
time. is very considerably.
We can only say that children who
are allowed to go barefooted enjoy al.
most perfect immunity from the danger
of cold by accidental chilling of the
feet, and they are altogether healthier
and happier than those who, in obed-
ience TO the usages of social life, have
their lower extremities permanently
invalided, and. so tc say, carefully
Swathed and put away in rigid cases.
AS regards the poorer classes of chill
dren, there can be no sort of doubt in
the mind of any one that it is incompar-
ably better that they should 60 bare
footed than wear boots that let In the
wet and stockings that are nearly al
ways damp and foul. London Lancet.

Household Hints.

When clothes are scorched remove
the stain by placing the carmen
where the sun can shine on it.
When purchasing meat, always
have the trimmings sent home, as
they help to make soups and sauces.
Every scrap of meat and bone left
from roasts and broils should be saved
for the soup pot.
Meat should not be placed directly
on ice, as the water draws out the
juices. Always place it in pan, and
this may be set on the ice. The hab-
it of putting steaks, chops, ETC., on ice
in wrapping paper is bad one.
Ify you are obliged to use gridiron
or frying-can that has previously
been used for fish, and still has the
pungent odor of the fish clinging to it,
you can remove it instantly by first
heating it and then rubbing it over
with bit of onion. The onion will
absorb the flavor of the fish, but will
not leave the least disagreeable taste
Of its own.
If, from any cause, butter becomes
rancid, to each print of it add one
tablespoon of salt and one of soda and
mix well, then add one pint of cold
water, and set on the fire until it
comes to the boiling point. Now set
away to cool, and when cool and hard,
take off the butter in cake Wipe
dry and put away for cooking purpo-
ses. 1t will be perfectly sweet.
Wax can be taken out of carpets by
several very simple methods. Lay a
thick piece of blotting paper over the
wax and apply hot iron to it; the
paper will absorb the wax that is
melted by the heat. If, in doing this,
any dark traces should remain on the
carpet, rub little benzoline carefully
on, drying the same with cloth.
Another method is to drop few
drops of boiling water Immediately
on the spots and dry after with a
cloth care must be taken that the
colors in the carpet will stand hot
water. Green is the most dangerous
color to fear.

Tne Iudre Cu,tiug Case.

The continued case Of Thomss Cor
dra charged with stabbing Peter Judge,
with intent to kill, was called in the
Manchester Mayors Court yesterday
morniDg--Justice Perdue presiding.
Judge, the wounded man, was able To
be present, and the preliminary exami-
nation was held, resulting in Cordra's
being sent on to the grand jury. Bail
was applied for by Mr.. Ii. A. Maurice,
counsel for the accused, and refused.
The evidence was substantially the
same as has already been published in
the Disp0tch.
During the examination several Wit
nesses said that they thought Jack
Dobson instigated the difficulty which
resulted in Judges being cut; where
upon, at the suggestion Of Common
wealth's-Attorney Page, q warrant was
issued for Dobson's arrest, charging
him with being an alder and sbettor to
the crime. The warrant was placed in
the hands of an officer, but had not
been served at late hour last night.
