Order affirmed. MITCHELL, j
The question whether the giving and
receiving Of the promissOry note OF the
Debtor for the amount Of All antecedent
debt operates as payment and eXtin-
guiShment Of the original debt, is one
that goes to the force and effect of the
contract itself and is governed by the
law of thu place of the contract.
Where the evidence of the law Of
another state consists entirely of the
judicial opinions of that state their con-
structi0n and effect is question for the
court alone.
The laws of another state, as to plead
ing and proof, stand upon the same
footing as any other facts and are not
required 10 be pleaded when they are
mere matters of evidence. Hence under
a general plea OF payment by note
party may introduce i'll evidence the
laws Of the state where the note Was
given and payable to show that in that
state they paid and eXtinguished the
original debt.
Secondary evidence Of the contents of
a document may be given when the
original appears to be i'll the possession
Of q stranger who is beyond the juriS-
dicti0n OF the state and who, after being

duce the document, refuses to do SO.

NEW
Fail Fashions for Ladies.

NAAS
The latest fashion news from Paris all agree
in saying that the 'Godets', styles Of circul ar
drapery, in new and endless variations, viii be-
most extensively worn this season. Skirts,
capes, jackets and collars all partake OF this
tendency.
The overskirt is nesting, thus far. with very
little favor, and Partisan ladies being adverse
to 1t. it Is only seen on rare occasions.
The old time panier is revived for certain full
dress t~oilettes.
The round waist of the spring and sum mer
is still a f~avorite, with the addition OF circular,
or ''Godets" hip cross skirts, in varied designs.
These items of news are extracted from the
DcDowell Fashion Journals, and will undoubt-
eddy be Of interest to our fair readers, for the
aim of these handsome Partisan publications is
TO always present to their customers the only
correct and refined styles adopted by the gem
tlewomen of PARIS, which Is acknowledged 10
be the fountain head of fashions. These maga-
zines include, besides Practical Lessons on
Dressmaking. which are invaluable to profes
SIGNALS as well as amateurs. Moreover, in the
Pattern Department connected with these
artistic publications, Messrs. Mcdowell repre-
duce all designs from any source whatever, in
the form OF made up paper models with addi
tional fiat patterns, Ihs usefulness Of which
ca unot DO overestimated by either dressmakers
or those who wish to do their own d~ressinaking
on the most stylish and economical plan.

PARIS, Texas, Oct. 10, 1893.-The Nc
Curtin shortage, which liz is said has
reached the enormous figures OF half a
million dollars. is all the talk In the
Chbctaw Nation and on the borders w here
theDeople are interested in the Choctaw

tain the exact amount of the late treas

turned over $104, 900 to his successor,
wien the amount should have beon
$43S;000. 1t is explained mat he is
charged with $3.50 0 which was conveyed
back into the Treasury OF the United
States for the sale of the leased district
lands. McCurtin, Governor Jones aud
Tom Ains worth, who were appointed as
delegates after their party got Id power,
appropriated ten per cent. OF the

for. The expenses OF the Nation for all

all told $50. 900 OIL hand. This makes the

for this year unless they borrow money.

Governor Jones opposes this aud will not
allow it. McCurtin's books shed no lig be
on the matter, but only mystify and
confuse. Developments are bound 10
