AND SOME. MVELVET GOWNS

Until the millennium
comes for boys it will always
happen that there will be
some in rags, some in tags,
and some in velvet gowns.
This would be the case if
boys clothing could be had
for next to nothing. The
only explanation is that
human nature is built that
way, and it isn't much of an
explanation at that. One
thing that is sure, however,
is that boys clothing was
never either as cheap or as
good as it is to-day. There
were never so many reasons
why a boy should be we'll
dressed, and the most forci-
bic of them all is the prices

The MllEman's Confession.

A ST. Louis lady tells the strange
confession OF milkman. For SOME
time past she had suspected that the
cream left at her house was diluted.
Although it had plenty OF foam on
top, 1t did not seem equal in quality
to good milk. She determined to In
terrogate the milkmap, and 80 she
watched for him. When he came she
informed him OF her suspicion. AT
first he insisted that the cream was
az good as any sold, but when she
persisted in her statement that she
had drunk country milk that was far
better, he weakened and said:
.'Can you keep a secret, mnm1
Well, to tell you the truth, mum,
the cream you got is not cream at
all. The foam that is on top IL made
from the white OF eggs, and Ia put
there to make you believe you are
getting the genuine article. But you
are right in suspecting you amt,
mum. It's nothing but delusion--
and maybe you might say q sham,
too. But | don't know. Most peo-
Pile never find out the difference, and

GuIsED AS WOMEN.


Four Men Adopt Novel Garb In which to
Punish an Alleged Enemy.
A Texas special Of june "a says:
Last night as tho plaintiff in divorce
case at Sherman, short time ago,
was going on from Centennial to
Pilot Grove he was stopped by four
masked men dressed in women's
clothes and ordered to get off his
horse or he would be shot off. He
had hardly touched the ground when
he was seized and blindfolded. Then
one OF he maskers stepped up and
shot him in the left breast. Luckily
he had q pocket day-book in his
breast pocket, which caused the bull
let to glance, thereby saving his life.
He tore the bandage from his eyes
and attempted to run away, firing on
the gang as he fed. He shot one
through the left hand and another
through the thigh before the MOB
opened a fusillade upon him, one ball
striking him in the back. he finally
succeeded in getting away, but was
able to identify only three OF the
masked men.
Complaints were filed and City
Marshal Chawnirg and Constable
Hamilton set out this morning for
the scene and succeeded in arrestiDg
the three identified parties and
brought them to Whitewright.
One OF the assailants had recently
filed q complaint against one Of
Jackson's employees for assaulting
Jackson's wife, and Jackson was
also arrested for being an accom-
plice, but before the trial Mrs. Jack
SON claimed she had not been mis-
treated by Jackson nor his employees
and they were discharged.
