Rev. G. c. Albertson CT jamestown fall
ed TO meet his appointment to preach at
the Methodist Episcopal church last Sun
day morning. His place was very ably
filled by Rev. Don 5. Colt of Wichita,
Kansas. Mr.. Colt has been attending the
assembly meetings at Chautauqua, aud
came over at the solicitation of Rev. II. NJ
Burns. Mr.. Colt is Il young man of great
ability, earpestness rnd eloquence aud has
the special gift Of ut once winning the un-
divided attention of an audience. Aside
from his ability he breaches pure and
clear-cut gospel, which cannot fail of inn
pressing the truth ana bringing it home
TO the hearts of his bearers. II is doubt
ful If his peer has ever been heard from
Sherman pulpit.
At the conclusion OF the sermon Sunday
mornicg, kev. Burns andounced that AN
old debt of $500 had been hanging over the
church ana he fel5 that it was necessary
it should be cleared up. With the assist
ance of Mr. Colt subscriptions were at once
started, beginning with seven pledges of
sis each, followed with IA like number at
$40 each, ard finally coming down to 81 90
and a basket collection. The desired
amount was thus easily secured and the
services concluded by singing the dox-

GIVES THEM A CiTIFlED LOOK.

Washington Hairdresser Who Aids the
Wives of Country Statesmen.
There is in Washington profess
sional hairdresser who makes COM
Portable living while congress is in ses-
sion, says the Argonaut. 1t is an easy
matter to get the name of the country
politician. A note is sent to his wife,
asking permission to show her more
becoming way of arranging her hair.
Some comprehensive hint is volun-
teered, with a mild compliment. The
letter is marked personal verbal
answer is requested, and in eight out
of ten attempts the hairdresser gets
an answer to call. oddly enough. it is
the husband who urges her claim; he
wants his wife to look like other
women. At home she was all right,
but in cosmopolitan life she is some
thing of fright, and, although he
despises himself for the thought, he is
ashamed of her. In an hours time
the hairdresser puts new face on the
woman from the woods. She may not
use an inch Of false hair, but she
wields crimping-iron in a way that
takes years Of farm life from her ap-
pearance. The troubled, shy, old face
is not made ridiculous; instead of
curls, the iron-gray hair is cleaned,
brushed until it is fluffy, crimped
enough to ripple and look three times
its own quantity, asld then it is
dressed. Instead of the long. iron
wire hair-pins, little shell pins are
used, and the coils are SO lightly
caurht that the wondering wife
reckons it viii not be long before they
all drop out. Women who refuse to
have their hair cut into bang are
provided with a false front; but in
every instance the transformation is
admirable. The bill is sent to the
congressman, and it is cheerfully paid

night from the south, where he had been
making some repairs on the telephone

fused to do SO and when the soldiers pro-
ceeded to eject them they showed fight
and the soldiers shot them.

 Arrest Him-He Had skipped.
 MIDDLErowN, Conn, July 14-The police are looking for 8 clever forger who made nearly successful visit to the Mid dletown National bank this afternoon, but although they have communicated with the authorities in this and neighboring states, they have ss yet been unable to locate him. The man, who Is about mid dle age and very agreeable, came to this city several days ago and has been stop ping at the MoDonough house, where he registered as s. o. Bowman. He intro duced himself to Attorney A. B. Calef, jr., of this city and said his name was Seneca, and claimed to be intimate with several Boston friends of that gentleman. This noon he went to the Middletown bank, in- troduced by Attorney Calef and said he wished to open an acc punt there. He stated that he was about to start @ canning fac tory near Berlin, on the branch road to that place and was ready to purchase land there. He said his name was s. J. Seneca and that he had been doing most of his banking with the Equitable Guarantee and iooo SoLhPohy oA ou0 u0 drew a check for $1 900 on that institution which he deposited. He also deposited check for $4S1 09 on the National bank of Newark, N. J., signed by E. Bellman & Co. He then drew 8 check for $200 on the trust company which he asked the bank to cash. Cashier Burrows had be. come suspicious, however, and refused. Seneca appeared somewhat nettled but said that Attorney Calef was to meet him at the bank at l. 30 and that he could get the money through him. He then went out. MT. Burrows immediately communi- cated with the bank in Newark and also that in Wilmington and soon learned that the checks were forgeries, the mesfages from these banks also requested that the man be detained. Attorney Calef was communicated with and the police were notified, but not until nearly 3:30 o'clock. It was then learned that the forgsr had left town on the 1:10 train for Hartford. The police there were communicated with, and the officer at the station said that a man answering the description of the fugi- tive had boarded the 3:15 train for Boston there. Nothing has been heard of MT. Ssne ca, alias Bowman. He was about five feet eleven inches tall, with light nous tsohe and side whiskers. He wore a light suit and black derby hat. There was 8 Io i1h{ a6a r.
