COMFORT IN TRAVELLING.
Women Should Not Go Travelling Unless
They Can be Properly Attired.
Some Hints and Positive Instructions as to
Proper Dress and Head Wear for
the Most Comfort.

OW many people are
there IN this world who
would ever think Of
cataIoguing travelling
among the fine arts?
And yet it may be made
quite as much so as din
ing, dancing or enter
tanning. The earth over,
travelling is supposed TO
refine the manners, de-
velop the understanding
and generally increase
the graces OF body and
mind. Per contra, trav-
cling accentuates vul-
garity, and mercllessly
exposes the weaknesses
of the nouveau riche and
the DOORS lack of man
lNer $40 the gaze OF All
mankind. To the wo-
man about to go travel
ing l would say: Don't
sit and swelter in a rail-
road car, swathed up in
a heavy black silk, stiff
with jet trimming. When
you go travelling don't
dress as if you were 60
ing to an afternoon re-
ception. Leave your
pearl gloves and pink
tulle bonnet at home.
The first qualification
OF a good traveller is
nprfect repOse of man.

JURORS ARE SCARCE,
Eleven of Them Are Willing to
Serve on the Kill Murder Case.

The entire day was spent yesterday in
an attempt to secure jury to try
Nicholas Kill for the murder of jacob
Kohn IN September, 1887. The panel of
fifty new jurors was exhausted, with
the result that five more jurors were Sc
cured, making eleven thus far chosen.
Deputy Clerk Armstrong called the
jurors one at time, and SWOre them to
answer questions. Attorney Ii. B..
Schneider would first chall nge the Juror
as TO general disqualification, and if he
passed upon that point satisfactory 20
all concerned, he would then be suu-
jected to an examination touching i'm
plied bias. In most Instances,
Assistant County Attorney Mum
would admit tie challenge, but in
case OF dispute Judge Kelly decided the
qualification OH these two points. The
juror would then be turned over to the
three triers on the question of actual
bias, who in this case are James H..
FOote, William George and William L..
Kelly Jr., who would listen to the ques-
tons by the attorneys Involving actual
bias, and in case of dispute would de-
eide the question of the qualification of
the Juror. Several of the jurors stated
that they had formed opinions from
OCSOuHlo VI lilc anu
subsequent events in the newspapers
which even evidence would not remove.
There seemed to be pronounced aver
sion, among some, to serving on the
case. Several jurors were excused be-
cause they were forelgn-born citizens
and did not have their naturalization
papers.
S. e. Kellerman. Everett W. Knapp,
Alexander McColloch, Silvain Quesnel,
George w. Keys, John j. Reynolds, H.
E. Minor, A. A. Mead, James Mead,
Frank Marzolf, Herman c. Kirsch are
the eleven jurors thus far chosen.
Judge Kelly directed the sheriff to sum-
| mon twenty-five additional jurors to
appear IN court this morning to COM
plete the panel. He notified the sheriff
that when he summoned foreign-born
| citizens to tell them to bring their nat
uralization papers into court. Before
adjourning court Judge Kelly charged
the Jurors chosen not to permit any one
to confer with them on the case, and in
case any one talked to them about the
case to make report to the court this
| morning. He also warned them against
reading anything about the case in the
| Newspapers.

OLD SOLDIERS PROTEST.
Rules Governing Admission to
the Hot Springs Home Too Rig


SPECIAL to the Globe.
CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., Nov. 1S.-The
old soldiers of South Dakota are raising
vigorous protest against the extreme
stringency of the rules by which admit
lance to the Hot Springs Soldiers home
is obtained. In order to gain admission
the applicant must answer twenty-five
questions, and then swear that he has
answered them correctly. Questions
one TO twelve relate to name, aye. place
of birth, enlistment, term OF service,
discharge and place of residence, and
are all right. Question thirteen asks,
"HOw much property have you?"
Fourteen, Are you unable to sup
port yourself?" Fifteen, Are you
destitute?' Sixteen. Are you
married?" Seventeen, Glow many
children?" Eighte, n, Their age and
seX" Nineteen, where are they?"
Twenty, ''Wh0 mas charge Of them?"
Twenty-one. "How many support them
selveS?' twenty-five, IF admitted
will you do such amount of work in and
about the home as is required of in
mates" Twenty-three, Amount of
pension? l also agree to deposit all
money received 10y me for pension, to
which am now OF may hereafter be
entitled to with the commandant of the
home, to be disposed of by the board of
commissioners as is now provided
for by the rules of the home"
The applicant must also have
a certificate of the county that
he is destitute and the certificate of a
, physician that he is incapacitated from
earning living. a number of worthy
soldiers who contemplated going to the
home, say that before they will sub
scribe to all the requirements, and give
up their pension money, they will go to
the county poor house. 1t was generally
supposed that the home was to he all
| that its name indicates, and that any
| hOnorably discharged soldier could gain
admittance by subscribing to certain
rules and regulations, and leave again
at will, but under the present regula-
| tons, to gain admitance a soldier must
take pauper's oath. and after he gets
| in, his pension will he taken from him,
and he will be kept pauper. There is
talk of taking steps toward amending
the rules and regulations of the home.
