The first stage in the Carricklnacross
prosecutions is over, and four of the
observation-disclosures James DAILY, James
Mccartney, John Martin, and James
Ward, have been returned for trial to
the next assizes. 1t is a question of
interest now whether the prosecution
will fulfil the attention with which the
correspondent of the Standard has
credited them, and send the defendants
not for trial but condemnation before
a Belfast jury.

Captain Hamilton, the agent of the
Brooke estate, came on for hearing
before Judge O'Brien, in Dublin, re-
Gently. When the case was called. it
appeared that two of tie principal
actors in the Saskatchewan and
McCabe-were absent, the former being
said to be sick, and the whereabouts OF
the latter unknown. This state OF
things obliged the counsel for the
plaintiff to ask for postponement.
After some argument on both sides,
the Judge agreed to grant an adjourn
ment. The further hearing of the case
will come on in month or six weeks.

came into his possession have held the
grabber's conduct up to public execra-
tion. With such vigor and determine
tion has he been b0ycotted that nowhere
within radius OF twenty miles could
he obtain the necessaries of life; and it
is mystery how without money or the
means of subsistence he has managed
to exist so long. Starved out, at length
he has gone. The National League Of

The latest edition of extracts from the
Military Code provide that the command
ant of company has the power to APP
prove or disapprove the findings of a COM
pany court martial, and that his decision
is final, except when the company court
sentences a menber to be expelled, in
which case the findings must also be APP
proved by the regimental Commandant
Formerly all findings OF the court We're
submitted to the commandment of the
regiment.
General Bird w. Spencer recommends
that each company commandment be re-
quired to devote a certain portion of the
DRILL season to aiming and sighting, and
that as far as practicable, each organiza-
ton should be provided with the mems
of armory practice with reduced annu-
uition. This plan would insure a perfect
knowledge of the use of the rifle, aud at
the same time increase the strength of

THE FAIR CLOSES,


Zabrissie Post wIn Clear Snug Sum
for Its Fund.
The old vets had a glorious time at Oak
land Rink last night in winding up the
fair that Habriskie Post. G. a. r., has
held there all the week. The large build
ing wasicrowded with people anxious to
make IT'S termination successful, and they
patronized the dozen booths very gener-
ously.
The voting for the crayon of Chief Of
Police Murphy, the organ and the piano
was brisk, and 50 was thttt for 4 badge for
the most prominent official in Hudson
county.
The result in these contests were not to
be announced until about two o'clock, too
late for the SUNDAY MORNING News to
use them, and the voting during the
last two hours was made II secret ballot.
so that no estimate Of the results can be
given today.
It was said at the fair last night that
the Post would clear $1,000 and that
it might reach 81 800. The management
cleared at least Sl00 on the set OF furni-
ture to be ratified off and the handsome
Surrey wagon brought a profit Of 5000.
w hen the lights were turned out this
morning every one seemed to regret It.,
for all had passed most enjoyable even
ing The old vets congratulated each
other on the opportunity the fair had
given them to fight the battles of the late
war over again and make them feel a
quarter of q century younger.

CHAIRS AND SOFAS.
How to Lounge Comfortably and
FashionabIy.

No longer is it the custom for the
housekeeper to go to the furniture dealer
and give an order for regulation suit OF
furniture made and upholstered in the
regulation style But now there must be
no two articles OF furniture alike in our
houses. either in design OF style of uphol-
sterv A Louis or q Colonial suit is, OF
course, the accepted style at present, and
all other styles Of furnishing are cOnsid-
cred very bad taste. 10 furnish q room
In good taste and with artistic effect it Is
first necessary TO study tue room an
what would DO effective III it, and to Sc
cure this few OF the articles will be alike.
In small drawing room the couch is
better to be square-bacixed and set back
against the wall Generally, this should
be carved oak. with seat not uphots-
tered, but piled with sweet scented sofa
pillows.
HOW TO MAKE a COUCH.
The frame of the couch is sometimes of
polished mahogany. and greatly resembles
old fashioned church pews in design. In
a dainty and handsome drawing room !
entered in a stylish honsein this city q
short time ago, 1 WAS initiated into The
mysteries OF couch, on which | was
seated Across one corner of the room it
was standing, and the frame was made of
common pine planks. A hair mattress,
carefully covered with some neat ma
teriai, Is fitted to the seat, and over the
frane and mattress was spread a Turkish
or Persian rug. This was certainly a
very handsome affair and real orna-
ment. The sleepy, hollow chairs are
seldom seen now, and slender-backed
chairs, elegantly carved, have taken their
place.
THE HAMLET SEAT.
Canonical furniture IS nowsall the rage,
and the slipper. corner chairs, fddleOack
and tripods Of oak are used to give the
room an air of Individuality The old
Hamlet seat of polished oak or other Elk
pensive wood are in great favor now and
give a pretty finish to a room. These
may be as expensive as one desires or as
cheap. The cheap ones may be made of
such woods as to look quite as well as the
more costly one. 10 fill up a bare or
dark corner many handsome chairs are
an ordinary kitchen chair, red.
white, blue. gold or maroon. Il will be a
bright ornament to a room when pretty
ribbon is fastened in bow on it, but only
one such chair looks well in q room.
Straight sofas that have q roll at one end,
that may be bought for small sum at
any furniture store, will be made hand
some and expensive by a covering and
curtain of Turkoman or Turkish mohair.
III furnishing a drawing room now there
are two extremes in vogue.
The severely plain. antique and some
what bare style and the snowy modern
and numerous pieces of furniture.
Among the Weather people the first
manner of furnishing u house is generally
employed and some of the homes of our
modern milliohaires look rs though they
might have belonged 10 their grea t.
graRdfathers. Small furniture is seldom
seen now and the more massive the de-
sign the more stylish it is considered.
