A Costly Wardrobe.

There was an auction sale of young
woman's wardrobe the other day in
New York. The young woman was the
daughter of millionaire who died
about six weeks ago, the auctioneer
said, and she was disposing of her
wardrobe because she had to go into
mourning. Thirty women and as many
men attended the sale. The bidding
was lively, but the prices brought were
nothing in comparison to the alleged
cost An elaborately-trimm evening
costume of royal purple velvet, with
gold embroidery, which originally cost.
SO the auctioneer said, five thousand
dollars, was knocked down for seventy
five dollars. A Nile green silk evening
dress brought seventeen dollars. A fur
trimmed jacket was sold for sixty-five
dollars The other articles were sold
at prices ranging from one to fifteen
dollars. The entire proceeds were not
more than five hundred dollars.

Its Case.

prosecution ReBts and the Defense Begins
Its Case.
PITTsBURa, Feb. 16.-The defense In
the O'ponnell trial opened its side of the
case this morning.
The greater part Of the session yester-
day was taken up In examination of news
paper reporters who were at the scene Of
the riot.
H. B. Layton, Chicago reporter, saw
the defendant in the rink about noon of
the day OF the strike.
O'Donnen then told him that six Pink
ertons had been killed.
AS the fire engine that had been used
In pumping the oil on the barges passed
the rink, O'Donnell said to witnesss
'rhat Is the best work that engine ,evex
did"
w. W. Wool, Newcastle newspaper
man. heard O'Donnell make his speech
ertons 60. The surrender followed
O'Donnell's speech.
Richard Collins, a reporter for the
Pittsburg Chronicle Telegraph testified
to having been in the mill during the
evening when O'Donnell made his speech
advising that the Pinkertons be allowed
to cut loose the barges and float down
the river. According to the witness,
O'Donnell said:
tons have, too. Let's let them go and
have no more bloodshed."
A man in the assembly called out: 'tNo,
burn the bloody buggers,''
"Who is that man ?" cried O'Donnell,
he was shown and O'Donnell said: ''You
go down and kill them yourself. We
have been trying all day. We will wait 1"
Afterward it was agreed to let the Pin
kertons surrender and O'Donnell said they
must be protected.
H. B. Layton, of Chicago, A. A. Wood,
of Newcastle, and several employees of
the carnegie Company, testified to seeing
ODonnell on the river bank and behind
the barricade during the riot.
Robert Herbert, a reporter, continued
his testimony. He met O'Donnell twice
during the day in the vicinity of the river.
Witness understood O'DonnelI was at
the battle as newspaper correspondent.
Had known him to act in that capacity.
Q. c. Moore, city editor of the Despatch
saw O'Donnell in the mill yards twice
during the day.
When questioned as to the probable
outcome of the battle, O'Donnell replied:
Wen win.'' Witness said O'Donnell
was correspondent of the Tri-State News
Bureau. He considered O'Donnelrs re-
mark, "We'Il win" to refer to the lock-
out.

Dangers of the Season,

The sudden changes in weather in the
latter part of the winter and early
spring are a source of colds and coughs
This season is a particularly dangerous
one for persons with weak lungs or OF
delicate constitution. A slight cold is
likely to become serious one and the
cough that follows is the one great
cause of the many deaths from con
sumption in the early spring. Never
neglect cold or cough. Keep a reli
able remedy on hand and check the first
cough, that may lead to consumption
AS such remedy the medicine called
kemp's Balsam is strongly recon.
mended. For every form Of throat and
lung disorder, including the la grippe
cough, Group and consumption in frs
stages, it probably has no equal. Get {
