New YORK, October 26.-Thres neat
and unassuming costumes walk quietly
down the fashionable avenue; neat and
unassumlng, but swell for all that,
mind you. Number one Is dull blue We
lours, with corduroy stripe, with a
skirt neatly banded with three broad
hands OF thin black lace, the top one
lust below the hips. A rich black vel
vet cape with fancy cOliarette surmOunt
the dull blue. Number two is an all
black gown Of cancels hair, showing
three narrow bands of astrachan, far
apart, Just aS the lace was. Here the
same stvle cape, but ell in heaviest,
softeSt astrachau, falls over Number
three is Likewise black-a diagonal
made simply-just an irregular, long
oversklrt falling over the same sort Of
an underskirt. The Overskirtis draped
20 the bodice at the hips, but with little
fuIlness. A plain reyered bodice Is all
she waist shows.
But there was a significance about
these quiet gowns. Each woman was
the embodiment OF grace, OF good taste
and Of the latest 10 gowns. Their sim
pllcity marked them cat from the gay
throngs that swept on with them, and
the fastidious, Satlated eye quickly dis
covered them. More than that, the
dresses indicated that fashion will need
20 adapt itself 20 the assertion Of COM

Elmer Chaddock, the Parkersburg
murderer, was brought up and taken 10
the penitentiary, whore he will spend
the balance Of his natural life, Thurs
day. The officers forgot TO bring
the commitment with them, and he
had 10 be taken TO a hotel and kept
until the papers conld DO sent after.
They arrived on the afternoon train and
Chaddock was admitted within the
prison walls to begin his life sentence.
10 seemed Ia the best OF spirits, and
said that he was going TO get q new
trial and that he did not think the jury
or the public would be so prejudlced
10 the future as they were in the former
trial
The funeral OF Mrs Elizabeth Baker,
wife OF Capt. \. o. Baker, was solemn
led from the residence Of her husband,
on Jefferson evenOe, Thursday after
noon at 9:3O o'clock. The attendance
both At the house and cemetery was
very large and the many friends Of the
deceased showed their appreciation for
an estimable lady. Rev. Grimes preach
ed the funeral sermon.
H. C. Vauklrk, OF Washington, Pa,
was here Thursday. Mr.. Vsuktrk is an
enterprislng oil man, and is largely In

q round color turning over sleeves that
have large revers just above them. a
natty lie rests on the white linen front.
The tailor-made girl mas style about
her this year that's most taking. Those
wonderful revers are so captivating and
the Spreading skirt falls so prettlly
about her as she walks with that spring
ing step peculiar 10 that animated in
dividuai.
Bonnets, too, have taken . fresh lease
OF life. They have developed some
curves that are absolutely new. The
crush velVen crowns are the favorite for
the uonce. One OF them is In black vel
vet and the rim is made up OF lluted
petals. like those OF poppy, that have
deep magenta velvet Innings. OF course
the trimming Is nodding black plnmes,
interspersed with feathery aigrettes.
Another black crush crown is bedeck-
ed with rings Of Jet A plated velvet
0rim slants saucily upward. Little tips
rise at irregular intervals from out OF
the folds Of the crown.
pretty thing for afternoon wear has
pale blue tam-o-shanter crown In vel
vet that is almost covered with bead
work OF steel and silver. The creamy
lace brim is edged with steel trimming.
Across the front black tips are stretch
ed, anu one is suspended at the back,
looking as II 1t might drop any mo-
ment. Pale blue aigrettes mix with the
piuNes.
Oh, the enhancing beauty Of the
evening bonnet! Bat is IL deserving OF
the usme? We bold 1t carefully in our
fingers, we turn It gently around, we
take Ia all It's loneliness; and then be-
gin to wonder whether il is a bonnet or
a very extravagsnt hair decoration, and,
verify, it is no easy means 10 decide.
Between the elaborate hair ornament
and the miniature bonnet there is some
times little more than a shade Of differ
ence. A fllet Of pearls adOrn the Golf
fure, and q flIlet Of pearls forms the en-
tire back of the evening hat.

Stock Exchange today was much less
than for the past three days, but the spec

strong. 4 new leader was selected for the
dealings, ST. Paul, an unusually heavy
buying movement having been inaugurated
therein, this stock having been compara'
lively neglected in the recent upward
movement New England was also promi-
nent in the transactions. Al the opening
higher range of quotations was estao-
lished, but the market met with some
selling orders at the outset which
caused a reaction, in which only
part of the improvement was lost. The
offerings were readily absorbed aud new
BUYERS were attracted thereby, whose pur-
Chases changed the current OF speculation,
and the market was soon again on the up
ward track, the Improvement conCn-
uing until after noon, when real
izing sales brought about an-
other reaction. Toward the close

oped which caused recovery and the IL

HORRIBLE DEATH OF MICHAEL WATERS.
 Once more a horrible note of warning is sounded forth to fall unheeded on the senses of the multitude of erring ones who yet struggle along life's narrow path. Once more huulan life is sacri- feed at the rack of indulged passions and that the life of Michael Waters, who was killed on the railroad, last Friday night by the train from South Norwalk, which reaches this station at 6.49. Waters had been to Danbury that day and was also seen about town late in the afternoon. Sometime between and , o'clock he was seen to start down the track towards hls home, which is just below the Roman Catholic cemetery and near tfe crossing below the long turnout.
