A DREAM OF BEAUTY.
REALIZED BY ACTUAL REPRE-
SANITATION.
Crowds of the Fair Sex Drawn to
the Place to Become Amazed
and Enraptured.

ACANSAS SNuoN w NoANNA NN W
immense rush to the millinery eX
hibit OF l.. Wolfson this week
when they step in to make casua
examination themselves.
The first temptation to enter il
the beautiful show window, which
once seen, can not be forgotten; il
is such a work of art and beauty
The elegant goods displayed there
in is only a slight precursor Of the
glories to be seen by taking the
elevator, as a LIGHT reporter has
done, and ascending to the MILL
merry department and viewing the
real exhibit. The place has been
so crowded with ladies the past
three days that one would almost
think every bit of the stock had
been picked over and the best
of it taken. Such Is not
the fact. Mr.. Wolfson is
one OF the most resourceful mer-
chants in the country and every
day fresh supply Of the newest
and most beautiful headwear for
the ladies springs up in the eX-
hibit quite as If by magic.
The display is set la Japanese,
the goods being exhibited in four
artistic Japanese pagodas, with,
lace and silk hangings and rare
rich colors and emblaZOned with
magnificent Turkish and Moor
ish rugs and hangings.
The plate glass cases in which
this department is furnished,
also contain the prettiest and very
latest goods. displayed to advan-
tage, so that selection can be east
ly and quickly made. The depart
ment is in charge of a most courte-
Gus and obliging floor walker, Mr..
S. Saper, and the skill with which
he distributes the constant stream
of visitors to the right sales
ladies is marvellous. A trained
corps of salesladies, the pick
of the large establishment, is in
beside a full compile
ment of experienced trimmers,
whose work attests their taste and
skill in decorating the lovely
goods.
Everything necessary in the way
Of shapes, feathers, plumes, jets
and birds, all Of whichwill be worn
in fall and winter styles, is dis
played to advantage, and the
quality is such as to please the
most fastidious and careful pur-
chaser. Prices also are graded to
suit every purse.
In addition to this fine millinery
display, the cloak department adj
joining offers a rare surprise to the
customer. Every new style OF
ladies' fall and winter cloaks and
capes are carried in stock, from the
lowest to the highest in price. The
quality is Of the best, throughout,
and it is surprising at what SEEM
ingly ridiculously low prices some
beautiful capes and cloaks can be
procured. The clerks have been
kept very busy in this department
also the past week making sales of
Japanese seal, French beaver, Can
adian beaver, Astrakan and plush
capes and clOaks. A full stock of
ladies' and misses goods in this
line is carried.
The entire upstairs department
of the mammoth establishment is
fitted up like parlOr or elegant
drawing room, with pretty chairs
and settees, plate mirrors, auto
matte fans, tropical foliage, and all
the comforts so necessary to the
ladies, and as the visitors leave the
fairy-like scene, a beautiful SOU
venir is pressed upon them, as a

THE LAW ON UMBRELLAS.

Approprintiue an Umbrella Is Nei-
Their Larceny nor Disortl .r1y Con-
duct.
The umbrella question has been be-
fore the courts. this time with some
thing Of a triumph for the borrowers
of umbrellas. The legal status of the
umbrella is not very clearly fixed; but.
if the case is to be taken as ruling
enc. the old idea of species Of COM
mon Use in umbrellas has it's standing
in the courts.
The borrower OF an umbrella in Chi
cago was charged with larceny and
disorderly conduct. His defense was
that the natural promptings of human
nature when he went out into the rain
induced him to take the first umbrella
that he could lay his hands on, with
When he did so the charge Of larceny
plaintiff, and the charge of disorderly
conduct was dismissed. From this we
are left to conclude that if the borrow
crs do not. with malice aforethousht
and by force Of arms, seize, sec!'rtc
and permanently embezzle the umbrci-
las of others. the law will not submit
them to the penalties in such cases
made and provided.
Exactly where the line Of demarca-
ton is drawn is IN unknown territory.
for the reason that 40 man ever did
take an umbrella except for the tempo
rary purpose Of the passing storm and
with the full though tacit intention Of
returning it when he was through with
it, If any villain has been hardened
enough to steal umbrellas. merely to
satisfy the vicious desire of dishonest
acquisi,iveness. he can be given over
to the penal discipline of the law. But
as there are no such persons, that is a
mere abstraction.
AS to the usual method of appropriate
ing the umbrella under the conjunction
of a sudden ram. and the absence of
any other umbrella. the law recognizes
a community of use like that Of the
telephone or the watermelon patch.
This may be recognition Of the ties
between the common law and the law
of human nature. 1t is certainly dis
Greet. because if the law said anything
else the people would so on borrowing
umbrellas Just the same. AID the idea
of turning the country into vast penal
olony to prohibit umbrella borrowing
is at once self-defeating and too awful
to contemplate.
