Coming over on the Brooklyn Bridge
cars saw an aged gentleman wearing a
comfortable gray shawl wrapped around
his dropping shoulders. The sight was
unusual, though it was quite common a
dozen or more years ago.
Turning to well known dry goods
man who sat next to me asked him,
"Do you have many calls for gentlemen't
shawls nowT mo" he answered. "Our
firm has not sold gentleman's shawl in
three years. We do not keep them in
stock any longer. Scarcely anybody
wears them now"
subsequently asked several other dry
goods men and gentlemen's furnishers
the same question, and from all received
the same answer The custom Of shaw
wearing by aged gentlemen has become

A Street Kobber Escapes With Petit

On the evening of the 9th Of last month.
passing along Sixth street fellow named
William Davis, generally known as
Red" slipped his hand into Roland's
pocket and abstracting buckskin purse
containing between 80 and $40, ran away.
Roland pursued and caught him, but
while in flight Davis had thrown away
the purse. A lady who lives over Con-
gress Hall, however saw him throw it
away and told those who were looking for
it where it fell, and they found it.
Davis was taken to Hahn's drug store
and Officer Maley soon arrived and took
him to the city prison. In due time he
was examined and held to answer for
robbery.
The trial took place yesterday in Judge
Catlin's court, Assistant District Attorney
Jones appearing for the prosecution and
a. NJ. Seymour for the defense. Davis
told fanciful story, in which ne said
that Roland had dropped something
heavy, and that he Davis picked it up
and ran away. He was partly under the
influence Of liquor, but not so much so that
he did not realize he was doing something
wrong.
Being aware of the fact that he was
pursued and likely to be caught, he threw
the heavy thing'' away. He claimed to
be hardWOrklng man, and that he had
been employed in picking hops on the
Mouton and Flint ranches near the city

THAT BARREL OF WHISKY.
Anderson Claims it was Disposed O.
Before He Sold Out.

Anderson Claims it was Disposed of
Before lie Sold Out.
The prosecution still had the right of
way late yesterday afternoon in the case
of ohm Anderson against Hugh Casey.
Anderson is the young man who sued the
liquor dealer for $50, 900 for false impris-
onment.
The trouble, as has been before stated,
grew out of the purchase by Anderson of
a barrel of whisky, for which he did not
settle until Casey had him arrested on a
charge OF obtaining goods by false pre-
lenses. The allegation was that Ander-
son bought the whisky ostensibly for a
saloon that he had been running at the
town of Franklin. but that he had sold
it, with the business, to z. K. Becl1ley
and pocketed the proceeds.
When Anderson's case was called for
examination III Justice Henry's court the
money was paid to Casey and the charge
suit for damages on the ground that Casey
was actuated by malice in causing his
arrest.
On the witness stand yesterday Ander-
son said he had bought the whisky at the
solicitation of Casey's book-keeper. and
that nc time was specified III which it
was to be paid tor. He also said he came
to the city two or three times with the
money in his pocket TO pay his bill, but
for one reason or another Lad neglected
TO do so. The liquor, he testified, was all
used before he sold out to Beckley.
The case appears to be attracting con-
siderable interest, the courtroom being
well filed with spectators.
