The Drawing Room Musee.

This is what Wilbur T. Smith calls the exhibition he is giving at music hall, Bank street, and the name is very appropriate one The exhibition opened Friday and was largely attended afternoon and even ing. Saturday afternoon and evening the attendance was quite large. The hours are from to 6 p. m. and 7 to 10 p. m. The models of the Fall River line steamer Pilgrim, the locomotives, the fire steamer, the Corliss engine and the electric light plant are wonderful. Each occupies a glass case about three feet long. They are run by an electric motor, power being sup piled by galvanic battery, and are the exact representation in every particular of the large and powerful machines they represent. Mounted in gold and silver they present beautiful sight when run ming. Then there are music boxes, me- chanical singing birds and mechanical figures, the whole combining to make an interesting exhibition to both adults and children.

Cloak and Suit Par|or Floor.

Unprecedented success of our Spring opening of Cloaks and Suits. Our parlors daily thronged with anxious lockers waiting to be served, and smiling patrons after being served, grateful that there is such an establishment in the city where they can always find just what they want. Before our existence they say they had to take what they could find. We have reyolutionized all that and the public seem to appreciate it. They all seem bent on proving their appreciation in an extremely sensible and substantial manner which spurs us on to greater efforts all the time. The long tedious days of toll and worry, spent buying, selecting, designing producing and pro- curing exclusive novelties are all forgotten when you look the hundreds of pleased and delight ed customers which daily throng these parlors. This year we have made greater efforts than ever to have a stock in this department equal to any and second to none even in New York city, and the public seem to have realized the fact,so much so that several sizes in number of styles had to be replenished several times. Already we are daily filling in our best styles and adding new novelties to the already extensive assortment Those who study the economy of time need not waste it looking through the would-be cloak and suit stocks around town, but come at once to headquarters where yuor interest will be best served, and both time and money saved Our sortment is larger finer and grander than ever
 
 creasing trade, you all know, it is the big volume of business we do which enables us to sell goods at the extreme low prices we do. Ladies' Silk Suits from SLOTS to $125.00. Ladies' Cashmere Suits from $3.75 to $150O Ladies' Henrietta Suits black and colored, at from $7 50 to $29 00
 Ladies' Spring Effect all wool fancys, at from $5.75 to $35O0
 Misses's and Chidrens Suits in silks, satins, vel vets and wooen fabrics to fit all ages, tastes and pocketbooks, besides most elaborate stock of Misses and Children's Cloaks, Jackets and Rag lans in styles to suit the most fastidious and prices that cannot fail to suit all. Donot fail to see the Novelties in Jaunty Bead ed Wraps-sixty different styles to select from. The stock of Ladies' Jackets and Raglans is su 1 perb, in both black and colored, including Ma hogany and Goblin tints Wefeel justly proud of this department this year and after tour of in- spection you also will.

EASTER SUNDAY IN THIS CITY.


 Services Largely Attended-The Floral
 Display Smaller than Usual.
 An early Easter and a belated season in slight degree robbed Easter of much of it's accompanying beauties Especially was this noticeable as regards the floral display in the various churches. Each house of worship, however, had q fine dis play. and more attention was given to the arrangement, and what was wanting in elaboration was compensated for in the unusually fine and tasteful arrangement. When the chimes in St Johns steeple called the worshippers to early morning prayers the day promised to be beautiful. But there was dry, cool breeze that if it had not been Easter would have made spring overcoats look out of place, Spring millinery and fnery was not as gorgeous as on Easter Sundays of former seasons, and the gray clouds which obscured the gun in the afternoon and sent down fur ry of snow and a shower of rain in the evening brought out winter wraps and overcoats, umbrellas, gossamers, and the paraphernalia of March storm
 These annoyances, however discomfort- ing and annoying they may have been to the proud femininity of the times, did not detract from the religious features of the day and the attendance at all the churches was large morning and evening. The mus ical programmes published Saturday even ing were carried out with credit, nearly all the churches augmenting their choirs with a large chorus. At the evening service in the Sacred Heart church the Amphion or chestra assisted and it probably the finest musical performance ever given i'll that edifice

The Hartford Globe says that the season closes with Hartford and New Haven well ahead financially, Meriden out of pocket and willing to sell out, Bridgeport solid more enthusiasm awakened and a new rink secured and Waterbury well awakened to polo, but poorly provided with rink ac- commodations.
 Hartford, it says, has reserved Cotter, Sealey, Pierce, Menard, Smith, Sullivan and McCarthy.
 New Haven will reserve Newcombe Ley don, Hallett, Valiant, Fuller and Church ! ill, and attempt to secure Sword, Pierce or l Menard from Hartford after next season opens.
 l Meriden will reserve her entire team and the men and the franchise will be of fered for sale.
 l Bridgeport will reserve Kirke, Rogers, Beeson, Abercrombie, and perhaps Par sons It is not probable that John Smith selling games at goal to the New Havens and is not considered an honest player. Waterbury will secure Williams, Shea and Conway from Hartford and reserve these men as we'll as Frazier, and it is likely that Joe Riley will wear Water bury uniform.
 Springfield managed by Hartford men will secure Massachusetts league team strengthened with Connecticut league players.
 The local management would not to-day give any forecast of polo or the probabili- ties of a rink or team next season. Upon the winding up of the season Frazier will probably be released and the rest of the players Hartford will have to dispose of as they choose. The season here has been a failure financially and the attendance throughout has beer small.

Sheriff McCallum Confidenced.

NEBRASKA CITY, Neb, Jan. 4.-[Special to
the BEE. Sheriff McCallum was rather
handsomely taken in by confidence game
few days ago, which was even more sue
cessfully played on Sheriff Barker, of Red
Oak, Ia, day or so later. The sheriff re-
ceved by mail from Denver postal card
giving the description of two men wanted
there for various crimes, and that were sup
posed to be coming east, and would most
likely be found in company with an old man,
of whom a minute description was given, and
who was badly afflicted with asthma and
could further be identified by tatooed mark
on his right arm. The next day stranger
called on Sheriff McCallum and asked for a
strictly private interview, which was granted.
He was the most asthma afflicted man alive.
He informed the sheriff that he knew two
men who were badly wanted in Denver and
for whom heavy rewards were offered. lie
agreed to put the officer on their track and in
the way of the large rewards, simply
to get the men out Of his way. They
were then stopping at Weeping Water and he
would go there, bring them to Nebraska City,
and a posse was to meet them at the depot.
He warned the officers that the men were
desperate and advised him to come armed
| and guarded. Everything was nicely ar
ranged, and the stranger was incidently in
duced to show his right arm. The tatooed
mark was there and the sheriff felt sure of
his game. The man then remembered that
| he was rather seriously financially embar-
rassed. He asked for little work, was
willing to saw wood to earn enough to pay
| his expenses of the trip There was no wood
| to saw but the sheriff kindly offered him S.
| as loan with a promise of more if the
| scheme worked successfully. The money
was accepted reluctantly, as he said, because
| he was a stranger, but more probably because
| he worked long and earnestly for u small
| reward He left for Weeping Water for his
| men which was the last seen of him here.
The return passenger train was met at the
depot, however, by the entire police and
sheriff force, armed to the teeth, and re-
| turned to the city disgusted when it began to
| dawn upon them that they had been sold.
| Next daw word reached the city that the
sheriff at Red Oak was taken in on the same
game to the tune of $50.

ANOTHER swINDLING SCHEME.
A Stranger Induces st. Joseph Coal
Dealers TO Cash Bogus Checks.


ST. JosEPn, Mo, Jan. 4.-TSpecal Tele-
gram to the BEE. For the past two or
three days a neat swindle has been success
fully worked in this city which has resulted
in the coal and wood dealers losing several
hundred dollars and the premises of private
citizen being converted into u coal and wood
yard. Mr.. Hazard Craig. of the wholesale
firm of Englehart, Winning 4 Co., lives at
No. 150S Frederick avenue and is well known
throughout the city. On Monday and Tues
day last, man representing himself as a
friend of Mr.. Craig where the latter was
known, and as Mr.. Craig himself where he
was not, visited the various wood and coal
yards of the city and ordered from each
two tons of Richmond coal. In payment for
the coal he presented check signed by Kahn
4 Furst for S25, payable to "currency.h This
check was cashed and the money taken out
to pay for the coal and $3.50 in change
handed back. The coal was then ordered to
be sent to 1908 Frederick avenue. Mr.. y.
Morley, who owns a coal yard, took his check
to the State savings bank today and found
that it was not honored. Messrs Kahn Il
Furst were visited and pronounced the check
forgery. About this tme Mr.. Craig was
seen, having just returned from dinner. His
place had been besieged with coal and wood
wagons all day and the drivers had insisted
on delivering the coal, although warned by
his wife that no coal or wood had been or
dered, and that coal was not used at all on
the place. Enough fuel was left on the place
to last MIR. Craig twelve months
