The horse's hat, which last year a hu- mane horse owner in Bordeaux provided for his horses, is now becoming great article of trade in France.

PECULIAR ACTION.

A Judge Invites Two Others to Sit with
Him, and Then Overruies Their De-
Cisi0n.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3l.-An extraordinary
scene was witnessed in the superior
court this morning. In the absence OF
Judge Stein, who issued an order for
bidding the closing OF the worlds fair
gates on Sunday, the management ap-
piled to Judge Goegin to dissolve the
order. He called Judges Dunno and
Bretano to sit with him. They agreed
that the order be dissolved, but Goggin
held that it should be continued in force.
At the opening of court this morning
Judge Dunno insisted on the right to
read the opinion Of the majority, and did
30. Then, after a wordy wrangle, Cog
gin announced that he no longer desired
the other judges to sit with him. They
retired, and Goggin overruled the mo-
ton to dissolve. Go9gin afterward gave
as . reason for his extraordinary action
that to set aside STEMS order would
cause the people to lose confidence in the
judiciary. Judge Goggin made long
and rambling address to tho audience
in the courtroom relative to taking pub
lie parks for private use 1t is denied
that he was under the influence Of liquor

Another Demonstration CT The Un@n-
pIoyed In Chicago.
CHICAGO, Aug. 30.-An enormous
crowd OF unemployed men and Soni-n
collected this morning ON the lake front
to hold mass meeting. The meeting
was so very much larger than expected
that 500 policemen were placed IN duty
there and 1000 additional summoned. As
the morning wore on the crowds con-
stantly increased and became more turb-
u'ent. About this time the police began
to appear in the crowd. In the mean
time 500 Italians and others started for
Sprizzaria market on State street where
were stored fifty rifles used by the Ital.
ian societies in parades. Upon arriving
there, the mob demanded the guns.
Srrizzsria refused to give them up,
pushed the invaders out and locked the
doors. He then gave them two dollars
with which they bought Italian and
American flags and returned to the lake
front. The return Of the Italians in.
creased the excitement and soon
the mob began throwing stones at the
police, followed by shower Of coupling
pins. Orders were at once sent to have
the Calling guns in readiness and the
police ordered to charge. Their clubs ut
once began to beat lively tune on the
heads OF the mob and in an incredibly
short time it broke, and ran 10 every d.
rection. All the trouble is over, at least
for the time being.

not have lights about them, and few
