Lace Curtains.

Only few year ago you. ia search of Laos
curtains. would go lntOa store and buy eiuei
a Brussels. a Nottingham. Tambour or An
tique That WAS the variety. Today. lhe
fashions change a. in dress goods. A novelty
in muslns Is IN old gold tints. with different
coored embroidery. the effect is very swell.
White muslin with chic little figures m colofs
is catchy. too, and the embroidered hem
stitch border is another new feature me
Irish point a jour IL an entirely new eNe-s
in a lace curtain. the border being hem
stitched with a wide daylight stitch be-
tween the lace and hem. A new feature m
muslin curtains is what's called the hol
effect. which adds largely 70 the appearance
Of these goods.
Muslins with space or Sits left through the
border design for ribbon 10 be run through
onght 20 become popular. The color OF the
ribbon can harmonic with the other decofa-
tions Of a room and produce very pretty ei-
feet
Ono of the most Elusive, fairy-like bits OF
texture is a white crete printed IN what, for
want OF "A better term, We will say nlnOo"
colorings of pale plnks, blues and yellows
You see the fabric from a distance of eight or
ten feet. aud you instinctiyey look back 81
you or above for a stained glass window, for
the colorings are Of that vague. gentle char.
acter produced by the rejection Of light
through colored glass. The colors are OF the
softest character imaginable, and they run
and merge the one IN. the other.

both sides. Jones Is very bleck h'sro' anu
Postmaster Russell gives hlm n good name, but
IL is said that he is accustomed 10 speak his
mind" quite freely whether addressing Whltc

examination through which Mr.. Smith put HIM
were mono too clear.
I'm his testimony he said that Pohlig cursed
him and threatened to strike hlm, while
Pohlig testified that in passing him he re
marked TO the man III the wagon with him that
he was the blackest mail carrier l have seen.
The difficulty occurred on Mann street near
Bodeker Brothers drugstore and Nj. fohilg
said that he thought no more OF the renai X
until when he got OF ms wagon TO 20 I'm the
drugstore Jones came up and demanded an eX-
PLANTATION and telling him that If he repeated II
he would make II hot for HIM;
While Jones was giving his testimony he
spoke of his alleged 0ssallant as 'IOhng. MI.
Smith remarked to him that he did not know
what his relations were with the gentleman; uut
he himself always spoke of HIM AS Mr.. Pohhg.
Mr." Jones did not, however, seem to see the
point.

sioner decided that u was case for jury "a

Court. Mr. John Rhodes. manager OF the brew
ing company here, went bail for the prisoner III
