A MILLIONAIRE TAKEN IN.

He Allowed n Clever Trickster to Ride
Behind His $4,000 Team.
A Chicago millionaire who had been
exercising his team of bays on Mich
igan boulevard Wednesday morning
was on his way back to his downtown
Office. He was compelled to wait at
Fortieth street few moments on &C.
count of a Lake Shore passenger train
that blocked the highway. A plainly
dressed but businesslike man who had
been standing on the sidewalk came out
to the middle of the road, examined the
horses with a somewhat critical eye
and said respectfully:
81 beg your pardon, sir, but may I
ask If this team and buggy are for
sale?'
81 have not thought of selling the
outfit" answered the man in the buggy,
with an amused smile, 'sbut might,
perhaps, if anybody should offer enough
money"
MAY ask your price for the horses,
harness and buggy, just as they are?'
Cash DOWN"
Certainly"
"Why-I hardly know-what do you
say to s., 00O?'
The man examined the horses critic
ally again.
''I'll take them at that figure" he
said, ''but 1 shall have to go to the
First National bank to get the money"
''All right Climb in. 1 am going in
that direction"
The train had pulled out of the way
by this time, and the next moment the
team was flying down the boulevard
of oroit if hon% chow
ing that it was rare bargain even at
S., 900.
On arriving at the bank less than half
an hour later the business-lize man got
out of the buggy, went inside the
building and came out again in about
fifteen seconds.
81 am sorry to say" he observed with
much chagrin, "that the cashier says
haven'ta cent in this bank"
Have you a cent in any other
bank?'
"No, sir. 1 am obliged to confess
that the only hope had Of getting the
money was here. That has failed me.
l had set my heart on those horses, but
I shall have to give them up. I am
grateful to you, sir, for having brought
me to the city, and beg your pardon
IOr Cne UrOuDle ana Oeldy nave cduScu
you. Good morn"
Hold on!'' exclaimed the millionaire.
Did you put up this little job on me to
save car fare down town."
81 hope that you will not think too
hard of me for confessing that I did,
but
Then you have saved five cents by
the transaction"
eyes, sir. That is what it would
have cost me, if had had it, to come in
on the elevated"
Eyes, see. You haven't really beat
me out of any money, my friend, but
you have come out ahead of me, and
you're the first man that has done that
within fifteen years, even to the tune of
Eve cents. Here's a hve-dollar gold
piece for you, and if you will hunt Pot
ter Palmer up some day when he's out
driving and work this same little game
on him I'll give you twenty"
He tossed the coin out on the side
walk, gave his bays light touch with
the whip, and his buggy was soon lost
to sight in the throng Of vehicles going
north to Dearborn. Tribune.

A valuable practical device is that
which has lately been brought to notice
by a French inventor designed to
facilitate rope climbing, while at the
same time PERMITTING the climber to
have free use of his handR The apara,
tus consists of two boards, joined by a
hinge, with hole passing through both
the hinge and the boards, and the ex-
tremities of the latter provided with
straps, which can be fastened to the
feet of the man using the apparatus.
The method of climbing involved in
this arrangement is simple. When the
feet attached to the boards are lifted
the rope is free, but the moment the feet
are pressed down on the boards the rope
is firmly gripped. 1t is only necessary,
therefore, to lift the body by both hands
as far as possible, and it can then be
held by the hinge clamps until another
lift is made. By the use of a belt to
hold the body close to the rope the
hands may be left free The device,
which is claimed to fulfill its purpose
admirably, is designed especially for
the use of tiremen and painters, also to
serve as fire escape.-N. Y. Sun.

DUST CLoAKs FOR WOMEN.
New Garment For the Protection of
Street Costumes.

New Garment For the Protection of
Street Costumes.
Dust cloaks are the feature of the
season. They are of shot silk, whose
shimmering beauty is pleasure to the
eye, and are so light that an entire cloak
can almost be folded away, in the
pocket. A dust cloak recently brought
over from Paris is of lustrous red and
brown changeable silk. 1t is cut like
an immense circle, but with bias
seam down the back. At the waist
line of the back band underneath
gathers in the fullness and gives suf1-
cient form to the dust cloak to enhance
its looks without combining in any way
the movements of the wearer. In front
it hangs loose and straight. Around
the neck are two full, fluffy frills of
the silk, edged with gold braid. This
makes it exceedingly becoming and
does not increase its warmth.
In Paris, where the skirts are all
long, the dust cloak follows the trail to
its limit, and in walking it is gathered
up with the skirt, which its lightness
and gathered fullness makes it easy to
do. There are other dust cloaks that
have sleeves. These are intended for
the street, while circular cloaks are
especially adapted for travelling. Some
dust cloaks are lined at the neck with
figured surah or foulard. This is
turned over and gives the appearance
of long pointed and frilled revers. The
silks used in the dust cloaks, it should
be added, have the merit of not spotting
if caught in a summer shower, and the
French dust cloal1s by some process are
rendered waterproof-N, Y Sun

and was called to order by State

johnson, of Conejos county, was elected
temporary chairman by reclamation. The
temporary organization was made perma-
nent. A committee of seven on resolu-
tions was appointed, after which Hon. H.
NJ. Teller and Hon. E. o. Wolcott were
elected as delegates-at large to the Mime
apolis convention by rising vote, no one
send and Jud L. Brush, of Weld county,
were then elected as the remaining dele

Declaration of Principles.
A recess was taken and after reassem-
bling the resolutions were presented and
adopted. They affirm continued alleci-
ance to the principles of the republican
party, and pledge support for the suprem-
acy of the same in state and nation James
G. Blaine is eulogiZed and commended for
his patriotism and craftsmanship In
structions for no particular presidential
candidate were brought forward, but the
following resolution was adopted instead:
"That this convention does hereby instruct
its delegates to the national convention at
Minneapolis to oppose by every honorable
means the nomination of any man for the
office of president or vice president of the
United States who is not known to be
heartily in favor of the enactment of a aw

of rushing matters after the call to order
at O'Clock and finishing all business, in
Guiding nominations, at one continuous
session. The Cleveland men and the Nor
rison adherents, which included the four
congressman on the ground, were NOV
ing heaven and earth to force continue
ton of the proceedings over until today,
their object being to bring about modifi-
cation of the resolutions which the Pal
mer men had prepared, and which gave
Cleveland scant Endorsement
More Consultation with Palmer
The wire was brought into requisition
again during the morning to settle that
much discussed question "what does Pal
mer want!" In reply to one telegram, he
says: II don't ask absolute instructions.
don't wish to yield anything to opposition.
don't wish to antagonize Mr.. Cleveland
My friends, among whom include you,
ought to speak on both Mr.. Cleveland and
myself in language of their own" This
doesn't alter the situation as it existed
Tuesday night, but a dispute had arisen
as to the authenticity of the telegram and
letter published in these dispatches yester-
day and the above telegram settled the
mater.
Cleveland Men Were Modest.
By the time the convention convened at
2o'clock the Cleveland men claimed to
have elected enough members of the COM
mittee on resolutions to insure generous
recognition OF Cleveland in the platform.
All they asked was that the national dele
gates be instructed to transfer their al
legiance from Palmer to Cleveland should
it become apparent that Palmer could not
receive the presidential nomination. The
Palmer men denied this condition of af-
fairs, and asserted that the ultra Palmer
resolutions would go through with a
whoop.
The Convention Gets to Work.
The convention hall filled long before
O'Clock. In fact before O'Clock the gal,
leries began to take on an animated ap-
pearance. There were many ladies pres
ent in the reserved. seat, and an immense
crowd of delegates and politicians. Tenn
porary Chairman j. r. Williams was re-
ceived with applause and made a speech
dealing principally with the tariff issue,
and denouncing the Mckinley law. The
speech was short and the appointment of
committees was soon disposed of and then
a recess was taken.
