Detective Ross Whitaker was ordered
out of the house and told that Gilmour
would send for Chief Crowley and the
police when he wanted them. The detec-

stairs after him as he withdrew.

FROM other sources far different opinions
were gwen about Addie GilmOur. Her
memory received high tribute from those
who knew her we'll in business and social
life. At the wholesale millinery estab-
llshment where she dealt many express
sions of regret, coupled with tributes to
her good character. could be heard yester-
day.
This is great surprise to u.s." ex-
claimed member of the nrm. "She was
very plain little person, not handsome,
but delicate and fragile. In her dealings
her bills promptly. This. of course, proved
her woman of honest disposition and of
business understanding. She attended 10
her own affairs. 1t must be about two
weeks ago since she came in here, and we
never heard of her SINCE"
RIA gentleman who arrived at one of the
hotels yesterday said:
Miss Addie GilmOur was % wears old.
She came TO Colusa with her parents In
1869 from Canada. Her father was shoe
maker, but followed the business only
three or four years. Her mother, a most
estimable woman, has been for many years
the leading dreSsmaker of Colusa, aud Adj
die, her twin sister and an older sister,
now married, worked in the establis hment.
The girls have all been as steady as clock
work. About three or four wears ago Ad-
die went into the millinery business with
Miss Laura Allen, and has been quite sue
cessful in business Socially aud morally
her standing has been good. Her life has
been quiet and uneventful. She came to
this city to take further lessons in mil
linery."
Mss Austin. forewOman of ToplitZ &
Co.'S mlllinery-roOms, said that Addie Gil
mOur was shrewd and prudent woman
OF about 2S years of age, extremely anna
bic and sensible. The social habits of
Miss GilmOur were not known at the bust
neSs-houSe, bnt it was understood that
she lived quietly and did not keep COM
pany with any young man. Young women
who knew her as friend in this city de-
clared they were not familiar with her
movements. as she made no confidantes
among them.
The parents of Miss Gilmour came to
town early yesterday from Oregon. They
had been away in Chicago at the fair and
were returning home when called to San
Francisco by telegraph. Mrs. Gilmour
was so utterly Frustrated with grief on
learning of her daughters death that her
friends feared the shock would derange

THE OHIO FIGHT.

of necessity be an uphill one for them.
II know that il is early in the campa ign

have just been made, but the discussion
among the people has been going on for
some time. Take the wool men, for in

the fight is to be clean cut one on the
tariff. The lines are strongly drawn, and
although the silver question NAV cut some

affect the general result. We are not so
much interested in that subject as you peO-

THE Democrats have been unfortunate
in the selection of their candidate. Neal

times as a candidate for the gubernatorisl

been unsuccessful. The last time that
Campbell ran some very bitter feeling was

About OpalS,

The prejudice against opals appears to
be disappearing. Anyhow they are pop
ular. There are several varieties Of opals
and therefore several degrees of merit.
The precious, or noble, or oriental opal
is the supreme. This has all the cOlors,
and when these Colors are broken into
spangles it is then called the harlequin
opal. hen comes the fire opal, or gira-
sole, with hyacinth red and yellow reflec-
ton. The former comes from Hungary,
the latter from Mexico. The common,
or semiopals. are nonopalescent. The by
drophane, or oculus mundi, is nontrans-
parent, but becomes so by immersion
III water or any transparent fluid. The
cachalong is nearly Opaque and of blu
ish white color. The hyalite is colorless,
pellucid and white The opal Jasper or
wood opal is the petrifaction Of wood,
opalesCent, but without the coloring
which makes the noble" gem so pre-
cious.-Cnicago Tribune.

And Then See How Well Your Picture VIII
Fit Scores of Others.
"He was a young man and fairly good
looking; smooth face and without
glasses; wore dark suit; was about 5
feet in height and looked like married
man. Anybody would know him" Such
was the description turned in by young
woman who slipped quietly into the city
editors Office and wanted to advertise
for Chalmers. 1t appeared that Chalmers
had left home, and nobody knew why,
and this young woman had faith that
her recital of his personal traits would
bring him back. 1t was a good example
of the average persons power Of descrip-
ton Of fellow being.
1t is totally inadequate! Though man
be fearfully and wonderfully made,
there seems to be an unaccountable in
ability in nine persons out of every ten
to give a creditable word picture of any
one whom they have seen. Because we
understand the looks of a person when
we meet them, it never occurs to the
mind that other people do not grasp a
thorough idea Of his appearance with a
few passing phrases Of description.
Your friend comes in, and you ex-
pound to him that such and such man
has just called for him, but almost in
variably your exposition is a jumbled lot
Of phrases which apply to the human
race in general.
The other day when | rushed into my
Office room with colump story on the
end Of my tongue-or at the tip of my
pen, to be more accurate-I was given
this greeting:
Hello! A man has just been in to see
you"
What did he look likeT"
ooh, he was a good looking fellow
not very tall, rather heavy, but not too
much So"
WAS he old or yOung:"
About 90 or %, should say
what color of hair?"
81 don't remember now. However, |
don't think he had mustache."
"How dressed?"
ooh, just an ordinary business suit"
Have you ever heard such descrip-
ton? If not, watch yourself next time
you tell of some ones call. You will be
surprised to find that your description
would fit almost any member of the
human race.
Why is it?
don't know. We read in books that
it's because we don't cultivate the habit
of intelligent observation.
There was once a boy who learned
how to describe what he saw. Every
morning he was sent by his father to
walk rapidly by an elegantly arranged
window, and then afterward to repeat
to him all the things he saw at this one
glance at the panorama and to describe
them. At first the lad could remember
but few things that his eye may have
caught IN the passing glance, but in time
he could remember almost everything
in show window by merely seeing it

WASHINGTON, Nov 3-The president

BY the president of the United States Of
America:
While the American people should
every day Remember with praise and
thanksgiving the divine goodness and
mercy which have followed them since
their beginning as a nation, it is fitting
that one day in each year should be es
pecially devoted to the contemplation of
the blessing we have received from the
hand of God, and the grateful acknowl
edgement of his loving kindness.
Therefore, l, Grover Cleveland, presi-
dent of the United States, do hereby
designate and set apart Thursday, the
Goth day of the present month of Novem-
Der, day of thanksgiving and praise to
be kept and observed by all the people
of our land On that day let US forego
our ordinary work and employments and
assemble in our usual places of worship
where we may recall all that God has
done for us, and where from grateful
hearts our united tribute of praise and
song may reach the throne of grace. Let
the reunion of kindred and the social
meeting of friends lend cheer and en-
joyment to the duty and let generous
gifts of charity for the relief of the poor
and needy prove the sincerity of our
thanksgiving.
