Pegleg has withdrawn to bench, and
with the Well-chewed end of a palmetto

the figure of bent old woman in ragged

They rush in. almost falling over each

not unexpected, freezes the blood.

GAME LAW CODE
To he Submitted and Urged Be-
fore the Legislature.

Among the visitors at the capitol yes
terday was w. P. Andrus, the treasurer
of the state fish and game commission,
who with his brother commissioners has
been hard at work for some time pre-
pairing a new code of fish and game
laws, which will be submitted to the
present legislature. Mr.. Andrus, who
has made a study for years of the sub
ject of fish and game laws, states that
the new code was prepared with the ut
most care, and the members of the com
mission, having consulted eminent legal
authority, feel assured that all viola
tions can be summarily dealt with.
There is, Mr.. Andrus, states, a Ger
tain amount of opposition from repre-
SentativeS in some parts OF the state
which he hopes to be able TO overcome
when the proper time comes. This OPP
position is directed not only against the
expenditure of money by the commits
sion. but against any change in the
present code, which has been found de-
fective in several instances. 81 think
we shall introduce the pill on Monday,
and we are going to put the matter
squarely before the representatives, in
the hope that they will grant our re-
quests. The bill includes the changes
of laws based upon the experience
of the members and the laws of older
states. and have been carefully pre-
pared. Then there is an appropriation
asked for, which will be used in the es-
adjustment of new fish hatchery.
The present hatchery is on ground
leased by the state. and even the build
ings are not the property Of the state,
as we think they should be. We expect
to meet with some opposition, but hope
to have the matter. which is rather an
important one, adjusted for the best in
terests of Minnesota. The bill will no
doubt be referred to Joint meeting of

DIANA OF ST. GAUDENs.

An Experimental Plaster of Paris
Goddess to Go Up First.
Sculptor Augustus st. Gaudens, says
a New York Herald writer, was very
busy man when found him last even
ing in his studio at No. 14S West Thirty
sixth street. A beautiful young woman
of lovely mien had only moment be-
fore entered the apartments.
''She is the model" said an attendant.
Mr.. St. Gaudens admitted that the
new statue of Diana, which is to adorn
the tower of Madison Square Garden.
will be an unusually attractive one.
1.-The trouble has been," he said. that
it is hard to estimate the height OF the
real figure The old figure was nine
teen feet high. 1t was too large. We
intend TO make test by erecting a plaS-
ter of Paris cast and then inspecting it
from point below the Garden. In this
way we shall determine whether the
real Diana shall be II feet 5 inches high
or Is feet high. When this point is set
tied the design will be sent to Salem, o.,
with the mold. The real statue Will be
beaten into bronze and returned to New
York.
"You may say" concluded Sculptor
St.~GaudenS, that the second Diana is
as yet only in mold Of clay, and that
our experiments at the Garden will be
for the purpose of aScertaining only the
proper height of the new statue"

There's a rumble of coaches outside and
stir
Of damsels half smothered in velvet ard fur:
All blooming and dimpled, some gentle,
some proud
A light-hearted, insouciante crowd. ~
Who flock up the stairs, now by two, now by
three,
To join in the revel of afternoon tea
Thro' the mellowing dusk of the candle-lit
room
faint scent drifts out as of roses in bloom,
A blinking of china, a snatch of a song
Caught up by fiddle and floated along;
current of chatter of Fashions decree
Keep tongues on the Wag at an afternoon
tea.
With jesting and laughter they come and
they go,
A fiippant procession of Beauty and Beau;
Their jests AMI their gossip enllven the air
SO empty of earnest so needless of care,
That all the gay spirits among them agree
The more make the merrier afternoon tea.
But am far wiser than they, for 1 feel
That a cozy wood fire stirred up to reveal
Two chairs and table drawn into the glow
And Polly to pour out the fragrant Pekoe,
The pink cup for her, and the white one
for me,
Is the only real way to take afternoon tea.

FOR ELDERLY WOMEN.
Fashion Has No Place for Them in

Her Plans.
There Is one want which it seems
almost impossible to fill in open market.
Such thing as special dressmaker or
a special style for elderly women is not
to be found. Why does not some enter
prising dressmaker open an establish
ment and devote it exclusively 10 ele-
giant costumes for women past the prime
of life and for old ladies?
1t must not from this be supposed
that arter q woman has reached the
shady side of her existence that she
should go into cap and stuff dress.
There are scores Of women-nay,
thousands of tnem-Who would like
tasteful and elegant dresses, but there
is neither fashion plate nor costumer
who can show them models for gar
ments such as they would like to wear.
They are quiet and conservative in
their tastes, but they do not want the
straight skirt, plain waist and Quaker
simplicity OF the grandmotherS. Indeed.

and good looking, and ii she feels in

plain habit she would not be encour-
aged 10 90 IL. BuL she O1ten does so
because she cannot make her own
dresses and there is no place where she
can obtain those which she would enjoy

There need not be any very marked
notifications in existing styles either;
just little tOning down of some of the
more pronounced effects, little quiet
color judiciously frightened with some
thing not too glazing, and some well-ad-
justed garniture of just the right sort.
There is one thing that should never
be lost sight of in the dress of elderly
women, and that is that they should
never, under any circumstances, indulge
in what would be called cheap goods:
that is, cheap of their kind. If CASH

GOT OFF LIGHTLY.
Hendrickson, Who Shot q Man,
Goes to st. Cloud.

Christopher Hendrickson pleaded
guilty to assault in the second degree
before Judge Kelly yesterday. Attor
ney Kane made a pathetic plea for
mercy on behalf of the young man,
and asked that a reformatory sentence
be given in place of one to the peniten-
tiary. Affidavits and petitions of we'll
known citizens were presented in sup
port of the proposition to send the man
to the reformatOry. County Attorney
Butler said that he knew nothing about
HendricksOn other than the OffenSe
charged, namely shooting young Paul
son in a saloon. 1t seems that the two
quarreled over paying for drink
Hendrickson fired three shots, one of
which missed and went into the ceiling;
another graZed PaulSon's shoulder, and
the third shot made slight wound in
the hip. HendrickSOn stated his age as
tWenty-SeYen years. He was born in
Denmark, and has been in this country
seven years. four of which he has lived
in st. Paul. He said that he had not
been arrested for a crime before, and
appeared penitent. When asked what
he had to say why sentence should not
be pronounced, he asked, with tears in
his eyes, for mercy and reformatory
sentence. Judge Kelly complied with
the requests made by him, his attorney
and several citizens, and sentenced
Hendrickson to the st. Cloud reform
atOry.
