sires. Prospect, (above mentiOned) will

RENo's BABY DOES WHAT NO OTHER TWO
YEAR-OLD EVER DID.
From the Dallas Morning Star, Dec. 81:
new years meeting Garry the news
from Maine to California! A Texas bred q
year-Old colt PAGES over the Dallas track,
Dec. 81, in 2:24 I-the time by quarters
being OBS, O:37, 0:36, O:36A.
The phenomenal colt that did this I'M
heard of and unknown wonderful turf per-
Torrance was none other than Reno's Baby,
sired by Reno's Defiance 146O. The News
announced through these columns Dec. 81
that he had trOtted over this track Dec. 90
in 2:251s, the best quarter in 0:331S, and to-
day The News has the pleasure of saying
that which has never been said of any other
colt in any country which the sun shines
on that he has record of 2:2511 as trot-
ter, and six days later makes a record of
2:24A as PAGER.
1t may be of interest to horsemen to know
this feat was accomplished by simply taking
off a toe weight of ounces and that so
evenly is he balanced at either gait, simple
removal of 4 ounce weight changes him
from the trOt to the pace. In trotting he
wears 13 ounces forward and in pacing 0
ounces.
The match was made for $500 side be-
tween the black gelding Elder Lucas and
RenO's Baby, the Baby to beat $780, The
judges were Col. Reekes, Samuel Hammill
and Al Rouse, who acted also as starter

race $40, 900 was refused for his sire, Reno

of the great Louis Napoleon.

regards the sale of liquor at the Shoreham
Buffet are not true. Here is what Mr..
Brown says:
"There have been so many conflicting re-
ports regarding the management OF Vice
President MortOn's apartment house that a
Star reporter called on Messrs. Beall, Brown
q Co., agents for the Shoreham, toascertain
the facts. Mr. Sevellon A. Brown said: II
am very glad you called, for it gives me an
opportunity to correct an erroneous impress
sion that exists In the minds Of so many peo-
pie throughout the country. In the first
place the agency for leasing the apartments
and the general management of the Shore
ham was placed in the hands Of our firm
long before the building was completed.
Since we assumed the management all
leases and business arrangements connected
with the property have been made by our
firm. In the second place there is no truth
whatever In the many statements that have
been made that there is bar, saloon or buff
felt in the building, or that Mr. Morton has
signed an application for a license to sell
liquors In the ShOreham. In fact, in our
agreement with Mr.. keenan,, the manager,
1t was expressly stipulated that no part of
the building should be used as a bar, saloon
or buffet for the sale of wine, malt or spirit
uous liquors. However, Mr.. Keenan, found
it Imperative, in order to supply a family at
dinner, luncheon or other meals with bot
tie of beer, or wine, to make out hotel IL
cense in accordance with the laws of the
District. This application was made in Mr.
Morton's absence and without his knowledge.
wish to say now that Mr.. Morton's in
terest in the Shoreham, beyond his owner
ship, is confined to the revenue derived from
.xEN 10 t1
the same as though he owned a row of fur
nished houses ON Connecticut avenue. He
would keep those houses in good order, pay
the taxes and receive the rent. That is all
he does with the ShOreham. He has moth
ing whatever to do with the success or fail
ure of the dining rooms and cafe only inso-
much as they might contribute to the en-
Enhancement or deterioration of his property.
Whatever profits are made or losses incurred
Mr.. Keenan,, the manager, will be alone ben

TWO OF THEM GUILTY.
A Verdict Reached in the kichOl.
son POstOffice Robbery Case.
LAKE ERIE LIBEL CASE BEGUN.
An Attempt to Escheat the Hazlett Es-
tate to the Commonwealth.
NUMEROUS ITEMS FROM THE COURTS

The Nicholson Postofice robbery case was
concluded in the United States Dlstrlc'
Court, yesterday. Cornelius Smith, ESQ.,
attorney for the defense, finished his argu-
ment, and then Assistant District Attorney
Alcorn closed for the Government IN COM
prehensive speech.
Judge Acheson, in his charge to the jury,
stated that the plea of guilty, entered by
Thomas. should not be accepted as evidence
of the guilt OF Titman and Casterline; that
Thomas being a confessed thief, his testi-
mony should be scrutinized closely, and il
should be corroborated before weight could
be attached to 1t. In the charge some OF
the testimony was quoted, showing that
Casterline was in Nicholson the night of
the robbery.
The jury was then sent out, and returned
at 9 o'clock. The verdict found Casterline
and Titman guilty.
Attorney Smith Immediately drew up mo-
tion for a new trial, on the grounds that the
defendants are informed and believe that
Charles Nichols and Aaron Bond, two material
witnesses for the defense, were present in
court during part of the trial, but were forced
to return TO their homes in Scranton by reason
of threats made by the Government officers of
arrestIDg them if they did not go. Several
other reasons with reference to the nature of
the testimony, and that the court erred, were
embodied in the motion.
Judge Acheson granted the rule for the argu-
ment on the motion. The date has not yet
been fixed.

EVERETT PIANO CLUB ANNOUNCEMENT
Certificate No. 325,

Held by c. L. Woods, of Sewickley, is en-.
titled to the piano this week on payments
of 81 per week.
Do you want fine piano? If you do, the
Everett Club or Cooperative System offers
the following inducements, if you wish to
pay cash. By becoming a member you will
save SIS in the price of the piano and get il
at once. IF you cannot spare the cash, you
can get your piano any time on payment of
S25 cash and 81 80 per week. no interest, and
still save S75 in the price. If you cannot
pay so fast, by waiting until your number
is drawn you will get your piano on pay
ments of 81 per week, no interest, and save
S75 in the regular price to our retail trade.
Think of this! Our club is composed of $50
members, each paying 81 per week. Thus
you see the members are buving for cash,
and one piano is delivered to the member
whose number is drawn each week
until all are supplied; or, if one
half of the members take their pianos
and pay 50 so per week, we deliver
twice the number, and get double the
amount of cash each week and it leaves only
one-haIf the number to be drawn on the 81
weekly payments. 1t is a simple business
problem. We are saving our members the
difference in price by contracting for $50
pianos at one time, and on a cash basis.
We have now enough members to guarantee
the success of this plan, and are delivering
pianos as fast as our wagons can haul them.
Do not wait, but apply for membership be-
fore it is too late. Call and see the piano,
or send for circular.

A Hou,ehold Remedy.

There is no medicine so often needed in
every home, and so admirably adapted to
the purposes for which it is required, as
Chamberlain's Pain Balm. Hardly week
passes but some member of the family has
need for it for some injury or ailment for
which it is unequaled. A toothache or
headache may be cured by it. A touch of
rheumatism or neuralgia quieted. The Sc
we're pain of burn or scaid promptly re-
lieved, and the sore healed in much less
time than when medicine has to be sent for.
A sprain may be promptly treated before
Inflammation sets in, which insures a cure
in about one-third of the time otherwise re-
ouired. Cuts and bruises should receive
immediate treatment before the parts be-
come swollen, which can only be done when
Pain Balm is Kept at hand. A sore throat
may be cured before it becomes serious. A
frost bite or chilblain cured and their unpleas-
antness avoided. A troublesome corn
may be removed by applying it twice a
day for week or two. Quinsey and gland
ular sweIlings may be suppressed before
matter has begun to form in them. Boils
are often the result of an injury and may
be prevented by timely treatment A lame
back may be cured and several days of val
chest relieved without paying doctor bill.
When so much pain and suffering may be
saved by the trivial outlay OF 30 cents, it is
certainly surprising that any family would
do without such a remedy. The fact is, few
of those who have used Chamberlain's Pain
Balm are willing to be without it

SUMMER STYLES IN MILLINERY.
Jos. Horne & Co.'S First Summer Opening
of Hnts, Bonnets, Etc.


Messrs. Jos. Horne & Co.'s first opening
OF summer millinery is, as usual, triumph
IN the way of unique and beautiful dis
plays. A mere glance at the lovely creations
scattered about the little bower is sufficient
to foreshadow the entire scope of coloring
and design for summer headwear. You see
that flower hats are by no means shelyed;
that birds and butterflies will once more
f1utter on the crowns, and that new and
strange materials as well as designs are ont.
The snake bonnet, for instance, the latest
Eastern craze. 1t consists of black beaded
serpent wound twice about the head. its
crest, garnet-eyed, rearing over the brow.
and the Jet tail tossed up from the center of
black beaded net crown. A black velvet
butterfly is set in front. A twisted leghorn
brim is covered with Chantilly lace, FORM
ing a shade in front, the crown opening
overlaid BY branch of blush roses. An
entirely new idea is a Spanish hat of Tuscan
straw trimmed with humming birds and
cowslips, and with lace mantilla attached
at the back, to be worn draped over face and
shoulders. A pretty round-rimmed Gains
borough trimmed with white plumes and
tight bows of corn-colored gros grain ribbon,
and bunch Of daisies nesting under the
brim in front, has lovely adjunct in boa,
composed of a couple of yards of daisy
wreath, the neckplece lOrmeu Ol HnitS
ostrich p1umes and white velvet ribbon.
Dotted net and crepe de chene is the ma
terial of many. A pretty travelling hat Of
the latter, white with big black velvet dots,
is crowned with black asters and upright
bows. Aubergne, the new violet tint, is
the shade of the roses that cover big sun
hat of Irish point lace over pink tulle
frame; and a toque with capote front. and
lace butterflies at the back. Among quaint
ideas, one leghorn has crown of ten ostrich
plumes and an immense Alsatian bow of
white striped gauze ribbon; black lace hat
has a crown Of IA tips and tall ostrich
pompon at back; a black Point d'Esprit net
todue has a torsade of jet studded with
turquoises; one toque is entirely of
white horse hair net, with two small crush
yellow roses in front, another almost en-
tirely of roots and twigs. Madame Tossee
is represented by long toque with pointed
back, top of mechlin lace, sides of fligree,
and Aubergne roses tor brim; Madame
Ettie, by lovely creation in French gray,
with crepe de chene crown covered by Per-
sian passementerie and fiat bow pointing
forward.
a hat that certainly deserves mention is
Of Gobelin blue Tuscan, made in whorls, and
crowned with black Chantilly lace, and with
a wreath of Gobelin blue birds.
This is only few of the beauties of the
opening, but lack of space omits many de-
serving enthusiastic mention.

AN IMPoRTANT TEST CASE.
The Right of Using n Car Coupler TO be Set.
tied, if Possible.

The case of Ezra W. Miller as executor of
Ezra Miller, against the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, operating the Erie and PIttsburg
road, was taken up yesterday in the United
States Circuit Court. The suit is an action TO
recover damages for an alleged infringement
of an Invention of car couplings of which the
deceased Ezra Miller was the inventor. The
bill was filed in 1855, and alleges that the de-
PENDANTS have been using the invention with
out giving an equivalent for it, The case will
be test one. About $50 is claimed fo- the use
of the Invention on each of nine cars on the
Erie road, and if the plaintiff wins suit will be
brought against all lines using the invention.
The railroad company claims the couplings
they use are those invented by Eli II Janney and
thai the same coupling was in use at the time
the plaintiff filed his declaration. W. ID. Pot
ter and d. F. Patterson represent the plaintiff,
and Wetmore and Jenner, of New York the
defendants. In opening the case it was stated
that the Janney patent was invented in 1867,
and that of the plaintiff at a later date.
Stephen Whipple and Michael Carstone were
placed on the stand to explain to the jury the
action of the coupling and the use of the Mil.
Ter coupler. Court then adjourned until this
morning.
