FIGHTERS In COURT.
An Interesting Docket Disposed
of by Judge Halstead.

Four cases were before His Honor,
Judge Halstead, yesterday morning
for fighting, disturbing the peace,
swearing, etc. There wBs an unusal
large attendance of loungers and
friends of the principals.
The first case was that of Chas.
Leonard with assaulting Chas
Womack. Leonard is bar keeper
for Morris Sullivan in East Sedalia,
and il seems that Womack was in
debted to Sullivan and In order for
Sullivan to get the money, he had his
bartender take it out of his hide.
Mr.. Sullivan appeared for Leonard
and plead guilty. He was given q
hearing and the defendant
fined SIS. Mr.. Womack is in
a bad condition having
three gashes cut IN his head and
his right eye is terribly swol-
len. He was unable to appear in
court.
The next case was Susan Clancy
VS.. Bette Shepard, both colored.
Charge disturbing the psace and COM
hitting an assault upon her son Alem.
The testimony was rather mixed, the
CLANCY woman claiming that Bette
struck her sen and called him vile
names, etc., while the son told a diff
erent story. The Shepard woman
denied all of this and said the SON drew
a knife on her. The court asked the
boy what he did with the knife; he
stated that he lost it. However, the
evidence was too strongly against
Bette and she wss fined SO, this
being the second offense. Owing to
her delicate condition she was re-
leased on good behavior.
The case of the city of Sedalia
VS.. Geo. Davis and jim Piles for
raising a row in Gordon's sslo N, was
next called. The testimony being
heard on both sides, the court imposed
q fine of s25. and costs, amounting to
s29., upon Davis and bound Piles
over to the state. The case was set
for hearing before Judge Fisher,
morning at 8 o'clock. He
was admitted on bail. Davis paid.

ELECTRIC ROAD.
tits Settled Beyond a Doubt That
1t Will Come Down Ohio
Street.

Ohio street will be the one to get
the new electric road. This is stated
as fact.
No objection can be had now by
those who protested against the road
being built at the time the blocks were
laid in paving Ohio street.
What good was accomplished by re-
fusing to let the road be built when
the Judge wanted to work Can not be
seen. Next week cars will
be running from Fifth ON Hancock
across the prairie to Ohio street and
Ingram avenue. This far every thing
has been completed. and the line is
ready for the running of the cars
which are nearly finished.
The rails are all laid from the Mis-
souri, Kansas and Texas track on
Ohio street north to Ninth street.
The rails have been laid on apart of
Sixteenth street, and the wire is now
being stretched.
Heretofore only about twenty-five
or thirty men have been employed.
The first of the week the force will be
doubled and the work finished as
rapidly as possible.

FLOWERS GALORE.
The Flower Society to Have a Fine
Show.

The Southern California floral society
is an organization composed exclusively
of the actual growers of flowers, orna-
mental plants and trees, and must not
be confounded with the various local
horticultural societies. The member
ship embraces the leading flower
growers of the six southern counties.
This society will hold its first floral ex-
hibition at Hazards pavilion, commenc-
ing Tuesday, November IL, and continu-
ing to the 10th. Judging from the pre-
MUM list and the entries 80
far as made, it will be the
finest display of rare and curl
GUS plants ever held in Southern
California. The membership represents
fully 10000 crysanthemum plants to se-
lect from, $4,000 rose bushes, upwards
of half million callas, and other flow
ers in proportion. The handsome pre-
MUM list, aggregating fully $11OO in
cash, is calculated to stimulate exhib-
itors to do their best.
A unique feature of the exhibition will
be the fine display of forest trees. both
economic and ornamental, by the State
IOlCSLly lt Will COAtdlll
different species of eucalypti.
E. d. Sturtevant, the celebrated
grower of rare water lilies Of
Bordentown. N. J., will make a fine
showing of this handsome group of
aquatic plants, while many ether MEM
bers from the adjoining counties will
contribute rare plants and shrubs, many
of them but little known to the general
public.
There will be special features for each
dav of the exhibition in cut-fower de-
signs, and the arrangement of the
pavilion will be in the shape OF minia-
ture garden.
The numerical strength of the organi-
zation and the enthusiasm it has awak-
ened among flower lovers, insures the
carrying out of all the preliminary
arrangements.

Forks.

The common table fork was unknown
to the ancients, nothing resembling them
having as yet been found by the explor-
ers at Pompeii or Herculaneum. Ac-
cording to best authority they were
probably first used by the Italians about
the end of the Fifteenth or the beginning
of the Sixteenth century. Up to the
middle of the present century the Chi
nese, as well as most other nations of the
east, were unacquainted with the USE
full little table implements, the Chinese,
the Japanese and the Siamese employ
ing small sticks about the size of lead
pencils in the capacity Of both forks and
spoons.
At first forks had but two prongs or
tines, and were always made Of iron
At present they may have either two
three, four or even five prongs. and are
made of silver and gold as well as Of
iron and steel. The Oldest carving fork
known. still preserved in the castle Pau,
formerly belonged to King Henry w of
France.-St. Louis Republic.

Wealthy Women Fond of Cats.

Mrs. Edward Parsons, of East Madison
avenue, the wife of prominent lawyer,
has large and interesting family Of
Angoras. Four years ago she bought a
pair of them, and so rapidly have they
multiplied that the whole front base
ment of her handsome home is given
over to their use and comfort. Young
Mrs. Hicks-Lord was great lover Of
cats until within few months, when
for some unknown reason she renounced
them. The Duchess of Marlborough,
when she was Mrs. Hamersley, owned
two beautiful Angoras, but it is not
known whether they have quarters in
Blenheim castle or not. Mrs. Paran
Stevens has or had several handsome fe-
line pets, and Mrs. w. K. Vanderbilt is
very fond of them.-New York Letter.

A Halloween Party.
A Halloween party given by Miss
Edna and Zoie Lowe, daughters of Pro-
fessor T. S. G. Lowe, at Pasadena, was a
social event which is seldom surpassed.
The beautiful Lowe residence had be en-
beautifully decorated with the choicest
of flowers, and was also brilliantly il
Illuminated for the occasion.
The guests, both from Los Angeles
and Pasadena, were present at the ap-
pointed time, and dancing was COM
menced to the strains of we'll rendered
music and was indulged in till late
hour, after which an elegant repast was
served. The midnight hour was, of
course, the signal for the commencement
of tricks and amusements always in
dulged in on such an occasion.

From the Virginia City (Mont.) Madisonian.
When we find medicine we know to

duty, and we take pleasure in telling
the public what it is. Such medicine
we found Chamberlain s Cough Remedy,
last winter, when la grippe was prevail
ing. We are satisfied that we warded
off several attacks that were threaten
ing by the use of this syrup, and we
have since relieved, in a few hours,
severe colds, and in the course of two or
three days, entirely broken them up by
its use, as we have several of our friends
to whom we have recommended it. 1t
isall that it is represented to be by the
