A Guardian Wanted,

A hearing was had before Judge Hawkins,
of the Orphans Court, yesterday on the ap-
plication of Jacob and Joseph Mozersky for
the appointment of guardian. The peti-
tioners are aged respectively IS and 16
years. Their application was opposed by
their father, Aaron Mozersky. The case
was recital of family troubles. The sons
and their witnesses alleged that their father
took all their wages, was violent, abused
them, got drunk, etc. The father, on his
side, denied all the charges. He said that
the application was made at the instiga-
tion of an older brother, who. by reason of
his dislike for his father, had changed his
name from Mozersky to Mazer. This son,
the two petitioners and their mother, dur
ing Mr.. Mozersky's absence from home, had
loaded. the household goods and other
articles belonging to him on a wagon and
deserted him. They have not lived to-

son. For theater wear the soft gray plastrons
are particularly useful, and the house dress
is varied and made attractive, indeed,
when freshened by their bright gracefulness.
They are the one cheap and redeeming
feature in winter of discouraging elegance
and expensiveness in dress.
Ornaments and Jewels,
Jewels are greatly the rage now, but their
decadence for street wear is in inverse ratio
to their popularity for house adornment. In
the old days lady was distinguished, no
matter how plain her costume, by the mag
nifcence of the diamonds she wore in her
walks abroad. Now the woman who is seen
wearing jewels before o'clock in the after
noon is classified as either not up to the
mode, or else is pronounced vulgar. Still
there is a nice distinction in the wearing of
street. jewels. The pins and clasps that
really have rsison d'etre, and are not or
naments only, are still considered in good
taste.
The jewelled pin that fastens the bonnet
in place or secures the ties, the hairpin that
is worn in the hair to support the bonnet,
the single glowing stone that secures the
dress collar, all these are considered as
quite appropriate for street wear. How
ever, the woman who has her own private
safe for the keeping of her collection of
jewels is quite as frequently seen unadorned
by any snowy trinket, however useful, un-
less she is riding in her carriage. For shop
ping, walking, or morning visits, jewels and
silk attire are considered quite as bad form
as mans dress suit worn before o'clock.
For afternoon calls and receptions few
jewels appear, and these are worn only by

Expensive Luxuries.
Pearls are to be worn this season. They
are extensive luxuries if perfect, and, as
they are the first jewels worn by young girls,
French mammas and grandmammas have a
custom of giving single pearl to little
girl on each of her birthdays, as we give our
pearls have been of good size, the coming
out necklace is ready for its diamond clasp,
to which each of the parents and grand
parents contribute jewel. The beautiful
italian Queen from whom this custom was
derived receives on every birthday, not
single pearl, but a string containing one
pearl for each year of her life. These pearl
strings cover now, when all are worn, the
entire front of her bodice and hang far
below her waist. The custom sets premium
on growing old. Still, if the fair Marguerite
could have her will, doubtless she would
gladly have the pearl chains diminished IN
length, and perhaps do without them al
together.
The apal promises to be another favorite
jewel of the year, and is set even in engage
ment rings and the heart-shaped lockets so
much fancied for betrothal souvenirs. Small
diamonds invariably form the setting Of the
mystic stone, as they bring out its smoul-
dering fire and exquisite tintings better than
the glitter of gold.
Small diamonds will be much used again
this winter in the hearts, lovers knots and
bow knots, feur de lis and other designs
copied from the old French bits of jewelry.
Marquise rings are beginning to wane in
popularity, though they are still well sold
in the shops, and are giving place to the
old-fashioned round cluster rings in small
and large stones.

M'MAH0N MAY SUFFER
Ewing Asks for at Least Manslaugh-
ter in the 0akdale Case.
THE HOLT CASE STILL ON TRIAL.
Strong Attempts Made to Break Down
Carpenters Evidence
YESTERDAY IN THE COUNTY COURTS

Thomas Mcmahon was tried before Judge
Ewing yesterday for the killing of Xavier
Stephlein. The defendants attorney, Mr..
Mullen, was absent from the city, and the
Court appointed Messrs. Robb and Evans to
defend Mr.. McMahon. The case did not ex-
cite much interest, as it was pretty general
ly understood that the killing was acci-
dental District Attorney Burleigh prose-
cuted the case, and tried to show that the
shooting was a piece of spite work, and,
therefore, the defendant should be
punished.
The testimony showed that the murder
had occurred two months ago at Oakdale.
McMahon had gone to the house Of Steph-
lein and asked for some potatoes. He did
not receive them, and some words followed.
Before leaving the premises he was bitten
by dog attached to the Stephlein house.
Going to neighboring hardware store and
borrowing revolver he returned and shot
at the dog three times. the third bullet
entering the kitchen, striking Stephlein and
killing him almost instantly.
When McMahon was put on the stand he
said he did not know anyone was in the
house when he went to shoot the dog and he
did not know he had hurt anyone until he
heard that Stephlein was dead. He had no
quarrel with the deceased and held no
grudge against him because of his refusal to
loan him potatoes Character witnesses
were the only others examined and neither
counsel addressed the jury.
Judge Ewing, in charging the jury, said a
man was responsible for doing an unlawful
act, with total and reckless disregard for
the probable result. Applying the general
principles of the law concerning the several
degrees of murder, the court said: ''In this
case we find man sitting in his own house.
attending to his own business, shot by one
who, by his own evidence, was q trespasser.
Regardless of human safety, he recklessly
shoots an animal belonging to his neighbor,
while on property not his own,
and also kills his neighbor. 1t can
not be regarded as accidental and the
least you can say is that the defendant is
guilty of manslaughter.
The jury retired at $50 and court took
recess until o'clock
Judge Ewing was in court at o'clock to
receive the verdict, but at that time the
jury had not came to an agreement and
court was adjourned until this morning.

Damage. wanted Prom saloonkeeper.

The suit of Mrs. Jane Graham against
Moses Dean is on trial before Judge White.
Dean was a licensed saloon keeper in Har-
rison township and the suit is for damages
for the death of Mrs. Graham's husband,
James Graham. 1t is alleged that Dean
sold Graham Intoxicating liquor from May
1, 1890, until November 5, 1890, the date of
Grsham's death, though Graham was visibly
intoxicated and Dean knew him to be of in
temperate habits. On November 5, it is
charged Dean sold him liquor and he fell
dead in the road near Deans tavern. Mrs.
Graham claims his death was caused by
liquor, and says pint flask half full of
whisky, which he had bought from Dean,
was found in his pocket. She also claims
that he lost his position through drinking.
Ten thousand dollars damages are asked for.
