Mrs. Jenness Miller lectured yesterday
afternoon, at the Academy of Music, on
dress reform, before a large and apprecia-
tive audience. Women, she contended,
dressed themselves in defiance of SENSE,
helth and beauty. The form of a woman
as 1t came from the Creators hand was as
perfect as the form of man, and the ills
from which the majority of women suffer
ed were but the legitimate consequences of
their own folly and ignorance.

to Chicago Herald, dated Dec. II, gives
the following account of suspicious
man held in Jail at that place.
'Cooney the Fox one of the men

jail in this city. He was captured here
by the sheriff about four weeks ago on
a suspicion of burglary and resisted ar
rest and displayed revolver. lie was
locked up and refused to give any 'ac-
count of himself, and said to call him
John Jones. His habit of concealing
himself IN the cell when any one entered
the jail aroused suspicion and the sher-
if wrote to Chicago for the photograph
of Cooney. The picture came today,
and the sheriff at once said, that's
Cooney.' The prisoner is smooth shaven
and the contour of his lower lip and the
slope and appearance of the head above
the eyes are just like his picture.
"Since he saw the picture of Cooney
and knows that he is suspected of being
the man he has ceased his efforts at con-
cealment.

The much talked of, and eagerly
looked forward to japanese Bazaar, TO
be held by the ladies of the Congrega-
tional church, took place Thursday and
Friday in the Clark Block. The weather
was all that could be asked, barring a
little mud, and the ltdies of the city
flocked to the Bazaar to see and be seen,
and to purchase. The room was hand
somely decorated. and the right window
as you entered represented minearture
lake, with forest and animal life, pre-
senting a refreshing and pretty scene.
This was photographed by Van de Wall
to serve as souvenirs. The Bazaar
proper occupied the front part of the
the room where articles of fancy
work of every description were
offered for sale, the departments being
presided over by Misses Lucy Twichell,
Loll Cover and Laura Schreiner, APP
propriately arrayed in Japanese cos
tune.

oysters and other delicacies were served.
The ladies in charge here were Misses
Kitty Mckenzie and Edith Decker,
whose costumes were of the old "New
England style. Throngs crowded the
room during the two days and Friday
evening the unsold articles were auction
ed off by Jehile Hyde. Much amuse-
ment was furnished by an imitation
orange tree, the red balls beng stuffed
with cotton and each containing somu
little present. A handsome crazy quilt
