Silver-Plated Slippers and Fruit

New York Sun; A bright-eyed young
woman. with a rich color in her cheeks,
ran up the stairway of business build
ing Oh lower Broadway one afternoon
recently and threw little bundle upon
counter before young man. 81 want
that silver-plated, please" she said.
The young man bowed, united the
bundle. and revealed small slipper.
He smiled. 1T will be done next Tues
day. ma'am," he said.
.'That pretty girl,'' he said later on, sis
bride. That slipper is one that her
friends threw alter her when the car
riage rolled away with her hush andand
herself inside, after the wedding re-
ception."
''But what on earth does she want it
silver-plated for? and how can it be sill

"Why, that's fashionable within at
the present time. and we are kept busy.
filling orders. 1t has come to be the
proper thing to silver-plate anything
thatmay call up pleasant remembrances.
We Silyer-piate babies shoes, clam
shells, oyster shells, pipes, ink bottles,
sponges. lead pencils-any and every
thing, in fact, to which a silver coating
can be applied. One of the neatest
souvenirs is slipper such as that girl
brought in, and it is something that a
bride naturally prizes. 1t makes an odd
and handsome ornament for a mantel
OF the dresser of the boudoir. The proc
ess isn't expensive, and. besides. the
plating can be applied in a variety of
ways, entirely covering the object or

NO BAR TO PROSECUTION.
Denied That j. Frank COLON
Will Not Be Tried Again.

The persons who are closely con-
nected with the case deny that the set
tlement of the COLON civil cases will
lessen the liability of criminal prosecu-
ton. Judge Hooker, who made the or
der, said yesterday that the deal would
have nothing whatever to do with the
criminal cases, and that the cancelinS
of the notes was not made with the I'M
tention of defeating the other case,
County Attorney Jamison stated that the
case OF the state against COllom would
remain just the same as before. They
had been anxious to have the civil cases
disposed Of first, but now the forgery
cases would come up in their regular or
der. 1t would make no difference to the
state that the notes had been settled, as
that was matter between the parties
themselves. The forgery cases come
up in the December term. At the
same time, the opinion is almost uni
versal that COLON will never be tried
again. ill

Mrs. Moore's Picture.

After some new light from the
supreme court on the law, the case of
Mrs. Ida E. Moore against A. B. Rugg,
the photographer, for damages is on
again. Rugg allowed negative of Mrs.
Moore to leave his possession, and it
was exhibited i'll several not entirely
respectable places. The court made
some new law OH the hitherto uncovered
point as to the ownership of negative.
The photographer owns it, but may not

financial troubles were followed by his
assignment the Ferrant-Schmidt com
pany purchased his plant and stock and
resumed the business. Monasch's plant
and stock were valued at nearly
$4,000, hence it is estimated that
the assets of the Ferrant-Schmidt
company will ta.lll little short of 100000,
and may possibly exceed that figure.
The gentlemen interested in the busl-
ness are extremely reticent concerning
the causes of the failure, other than the
stereotyped one of poor business" and
refuse to make any authoritative state
ment of the liabilities, which are be-
lieved to considerably exceed the as

Board of Trade,

At the regular meeting of the board
of trade yesterday two important ques-
tions were discussed. viz: Recon-
mending congress to make an appropri-
alton to aid in the irrigation of South
Dakota by means of artesian wells, and
the ACCESSIBILITY of reducing letter post
age to one cent. After number of Or
atorical displays pro and con, it was de-
cided that the board would be making q
bad precedent to pass resolutions ask
ing for governmental charity for South
Dakota. 1t was also decided that under
the present financial condition of Uncle
Sam it would hardly be safe to reduce
the rate of postage.
