COUGHLIN's TRIAL.
The Mysterious Simonds Story
Comes Up in Court.

I06 mysterious SlinOuuS oIOry
Comes Up in Court.
CHICAGO, Dec. 15.-The connection
of the mysterious 81. B. Simonds' with
the Cronin case was the subject of in
vestigation by the prosecution in the
Coughlin trial today. Attorney Daniel
Donahoe, for the defense. moved that
the entire Simonds story be e xcluded,
as SiniondS had never been indicted.
But the court permitted clerk to
testify to having sold goods to SimondS.
which the prosecution alleged were used
in fitting up the Clark street flat, and
another witness testified to having
rented the fiat in question to Simonds.
Some days since it was rumored that
Officer Way would positively identify
Coughlin as one of the three men on the
wagon. He did not testify at the last
said he was silent on that subject be-
cause he had not been interrogated as
to it.
The defense fully expected that Way
would swear today to having seen
Coughin on the wagon, and when his
direct testimony ended without having
done so. it was much relief to the de-
tendant. Way said explicitly that he
could not identify the men On the
wagon.
The only other witnesses of the day
were E. q. Throckmorton, who rented
the premises at III Clark street, to j. b.
Simonds, and w. P. Hatfield, who sold
to j. b. Simonds and delivered at No.
lit Clark street, the same trunk as that
which contained the body of DR.. Cronin.
Hatfield positively identified the truLk
as the one he had sold to Simonds. At
the conclusion of his testimony court
adjourned until Monday morning.

their room, ana 1t had been the practice
to borrow one from the room of Mrs.
Rollins to use in the mornings. Yes
terday johnson went down for the
pitcher and Rollins and he had some
words, but johnson took the pitcher
and went after water. When he re-
turned Rollins met him in the hall and
a scuff1e ensued. She ran down stairs,
and was just in time to see Mrs. Rollins
returning to the spot with a heavy
poker in her hand to give Rollins.
Rollins and Johnson in the scuffle went
into Rollins front room, and minute
later she heard the sound of two shots.
Johnson. she claims, was much smaller
and weaker than Rollins. and must have
fired the shots in self-defense.
The police say Johnson is ''bad
coon." He halls from Winchester, KY,
and has only been in st. Paul little
over four months, coming direct from
Omaha. Since his arrival he has been
for time employed as "beil hop" at the
Merchants hotel, but left there last
Monday. The woman he was living
with is known to the officers as Laura
Smith and Laura Williams. she having
served term in the workhouse for dis
orderly conduct, and has also been ar
rested several times when raids were
made by the police on disoIderly
houses. Her husband. Henry Smith,
was sent to the reformatory from Min
neapolis last summer for horse stealing.
Rollins was at one time a bell boy at
the Merchants, but by occupation was
cook, having been employed at a res
taurant at KasOta Junction. He had
lived in st. Paul for about seven
months. and. his wife says, owned prop
erty at Kasota junction.
An autopsy held ON the body of Rol-
Inns yesterday afternoon by Coroner
Whitcomb and Drs. Finnell and Gun
ming showed that death was caused by
a 3S-caliber bullet. The missile entered
the left breast just over the nipple,
passed through the heart and right
| lung, and was found beneath the right
| arm pit. An inquest will be held this
| noon at Dampier's undertaking rooms.
The detectives, under instructions of
Chief of Detectives McGinn, spent the
afternoon and evening in visiting the
/ various resorts frequented by negroes
| in the city. No trace of johnson was
obtained. however, the last seen of him
| being when he ran down Ninth street a
| few seconds after the murder, and
| turned north on Sibley street. 1t was
| reported last evening that he was in
| hiding at the house of friend named
! Bangs In the neighborhood OF
| Spruce and Temperance streets. Bangs
was sent for and closeted with Chief
McGinn for half an hour, but denied all
| knowledge of Johnson's whereabouts
A description of the fugitive was given
detectives by Bangs, and this morning
postal cards with such description will
be sent to the police authorities of the
principal cities. Mrs. Rollins and Laura
Smith were kept at the station last
night, and will be detained until after
the coFoner's inquest today. They are

one piece and giving some fulness to
the front, they make it cross diagonally
and fasten low on the side, as seen in
a drawing OF reception gown for an
elderly woman. This is ingenious and
graceful.
For a woman past middle life who
wants dressy gown that yet covers
neck ard arms, one of the latest mod
els is this same reception gown of black
silk with lace garniture on the waist;
the pointed front filled in with white
satin softly draped; the sleeves with
the close wer part of white satin bro
caded with color, and black puff slashes
with the brocade. Lace should be sewed
in the sleeves and allowed to fall over
the hands.
For old ladies there is nothing more
beautiful than black velvet laid in soft
folds. Mrs. Gladstone wore such gown
at a reception the other day, fastened
with diamond buttons. Her cap was of
cream guipure.

Cure for the Blues and Crossness.

1t is said OF Phoebe Cary, who was a
rem arkably sunshiny and lovable woman,
that whenever she used to feel ''out of
sorts" ste would shut herself up in her
own room for rest until serenity of soul
was restored. She was wise enough to
discern the physiological side of amia-
bility and governed herself accordingly.
A mother of two restless children acts
upon the same principle by insisting
upon "beG day" She has observed
that "crossness" with them is invar-
iably the result of too much activity,
that nervous force is expended faster
than muscular sire myth is generated,
and tries to restore the balance in the
manner suggested. The children under
stand that the measure is not pun
ishment but enforced solely for sanitary
reasons and are allowed plenty of play
things and quiet games. This mother
testifies that the next day her small
brood is Gas bright and clipper as:young
robins" The ex pertinent, for either
children or adults, is worth trying,
especially after tho excitement and
irregular habits necessarily corrected
with the holiday season."

GRAVES.
beauties.

Judging from the curious mixture
served as gravies in this country many
a housekeeper can sympathize with
our friend who seeks information regard
ing it.
Gravy, pure and simple, is the juice
and fat of the meat extracted in the
process of cooking and carving.
The origin of the word is uncertain
though it is probably derived from the
same root as grease"
A general formula which will cover
most sauces calls for one rounding
tablespoonful of fat, one rounding table
spooful -four and one cupful of liquid.
Vary With common sense; for example,
if the liquid be cream use less fat, if it
is tomato or oniCn pulp, less -four will
be required.
This is the process: Melt the fat in
a suitable agate saucepan, put in the
-four, stir till the mixture bubbles ..all
over, cool slightly, then gradually add
the hot liquid, beating in each addition
before putting in more.
The constant beating renders the
sauce smooth and glossy as nothing else
can make it.
1t it should not be of the right thick

ness; if too thin, cook slowly for few
moments, if thick, add more liquid.
Next, season it to suit the taste.
Powdered seasonings like salt, pepper
and mustard may be mixed with the
dry -four before it is put in the fat.
Chopped onions may be fryed in the fat
before the -four is added. In general
it is better to season mildly than too
highly. Such seasonings as mushrooms,
lobster, celery, shrimps. capers. ETC.,
are previously prepared and put into the
sauce not long before serving.

FROSTBITTEN.

The white frost kissed the golden rod,
When the autumn sun went down;
And the lofty bea uties hung their heads
And blushed, till they were brown.
The tiny flowers that loved to hide,
In the lap OF summers green;
Received the same cold kiss and died,
FOrsaken and unseen.
The petals brewing honey-sweet.
For the little busy bees;
Look up through frosty tears to greet,
The naked leafless trees.
The bloom which made the meadows bright
In the soft September days.
Gave their tints to the chilly night,
Their life-to the morning rays.
The fowery hedge that lined the stream,
And drank the evening dew;
Like sentries stand in the moons pale beams
ost-bitten-through and through.
The brown thrush sings no more his song.
In the branches near his nest,
Inc white frost came, the leaves are gone
10 mother earth-to rest,
We soon forget the buds of spring,
- ana Une summer sweets are lost
But tender recOllections cling
10 the fowers-destroyed by frost.
