How much a horse may suffer from
a harness that does not fit, or which
is rough and painful to the animal
may be unknown, but one Of the first
duties on taking 4 horse out fol
work should be to examine the har-

sores or gals. The harness should
be kept clean and well oiled, in order
to have every part soft, smooth and

that one chieftain had something an

for the latter to try to get it.

Southwestern Minnesota and Eastern
South Dakota suffered Wednesday Sc
yerely from series OF wind storms OF
cyclonic tendencies. They travelled
from southwest to northeast, and there
were three OF unusual severity.
The westernmost arose in South Da-
kota and traversed the east end OF the
State, striking AL; ena, Mellette, st.
Lawrence, and Aberdeen. This storm
did no damage to life or limb, but con-
siderable to property and crops.
The central storm was first heard OF
at Pipestone, in the southwest corner
of the State, before 8 p. m. Its record
there was one killed, one injured and
serious damage to property in its
course. 1t passed Tracy and Echo
without serious effects and was next
heard OF at Renvil Q, where 1t was
forty rods wide and of corresponding
intensity of action. There was another
victim here besides many injured and
O record OF devastation for buildings
and property. Litchfield was the next
line. but apparently the cyclone there
developed several hours later. Two
were killed and many injured. The
of the storms path was Collegeville, in
Stearns County.
The eastern end started in Window,
Mimi, about half-past seven. 1t reached
Sleepy Eye shortly before 8 o'clock.
Its intensity was incalculable. At least
one was killed and q number injured.
1t next struck Glencoe, where its work
was death-dealing.
Minneapolis caught the tail end of
its blow, and it was still twisting. 1t
swept across the city, dipping down
to the ground near Lake Harriet,
where barns and windmills were
wrecked and the debris tumbled into
the boulevard. The cyclone did not
dip down to the ground again until 1t
reached the outskirts of Northeast
Minneapolis, where the house of gar
dener named Lemke was lifted COM
pletely from its foundations and un-
rooted Mrs. Lemke and her daughter
were badly bruised. fortunately the
cyclone did not dip to the surface, ex-
cept in the outskirts Of the city. Had
these dips occurred in the more thick.
ly populated portions great loss OF life
would have resulted.

A simple and touching sight might
have been witnessed In Paris church
the other day during the celebration
of fashionable and largely attended
wedding. In corner OF the edifoe,
observed by few, stood q youthful
couple, mulatto girl and her equally
Juvenile and equally dusky sweetheart
The two appeared intently watching
the ceremony going on in front Of the
altar, and copied each movement made
by the bride and bridegroom whom the
priest was making man and wife. As
they knelt down, so did the other
couple kneel, and WREN the faultlessly
attired bridegroom placed the ring on
his blu hing brides finger the young
mulatto did likewise. only his ring was
OF metal and his bride was less fair.
At length. when the procession
emerged from the church, the humble
couple followed, looking as II they
thought they were quite as much mar
ried as their more fortunate brethren.
1t transpired that such was, indeed,
their belief. The two lovers. who are
models" known to many artists here,
had no money wherewith TO pay the
priest or the registrars fees, so they
thought a wedding at secondhand

adopted denouncing the Wilson bill

The theater was handsomely decorated.
Flags and bunting were draped from

between them a representation of an
immense silver dollar. The conven-
ton was called to order by President
Tracy. After prayer, President +. G..

League, welcomed the delegates: the

President w. w. Tracy, of Springfield,

why Pen-Names Are Used.

A correspondent of the New York
Sun asks why it is that a man or woman
takes another name when he or she be-
gins to write.
There is no reason for doing SO, Is
the reply, but the custom Is the sur
vival of the time-not ct out of date
when writer's and educated persons
were looked down upon by the best
people," and when it was beneath q
gentleman's dignity to write. So, whom
q gentlemen did write, he took some
name rather than his own The Gus
tom was followed even by those who
were not gentlemen, but merely edu-
Gated and intelligent persons. Some
persons take pen names for special
reasons.
They may be ashamed Of their writ
ings. That would be the natural rea-
son for a good many women writer's OF
ths day ia ing pen names. Or they
may think they can do better IL they
pose as men. That is why George
Sand took her name. why George
Eliot took hers, why Edward Garrett
took hers. There are almost as many
reasons as there are changed names,
and underlying them all is the old idea
that writing is a sign OF low social
status

The bodice of this dainty costume,
which is composed of gray silk. comes
inside the skirt, hooks in the center,
and the draped plastron of white
mousseline chiffon laps over. Its lower
part forms a fitted vest, from which
straps of the dress stuff extend upward
to the shoulders. A belt of wide rib
bon ties in front in large bow, with
fancy passementerie. The skirt may
be either gored or circular, and has a
front breadth of the mousseline chif-
fon, the corners Of the stuff at the bot
tom being ornamented, as shown, with
steel passementerie.
Even cooler are the sleeves on the
next dress shown, which are pulled
full to the elbow and end in lace frill.
There is suggestion of GOODNESS, too,
in the gown cut at the neck. The
whole consists Of slightly trained
skirt of cream-colored figured pongee
and princess overdress of gray ere
pom, which has a small vest of lotus
red sicilienne let in at the side seam.
The vest is finished with large revers
OF yellow tatieta, and a deep blouse
plastron of white lace fills the opening
at the neck. The gored skirt is lined
with silk foulard.
Women's riding habits have expe-
rienced great change of late and now
are not unlike street dresses. Tailor
'mades are responsible for this, because
the latter are now SO much worn, and
they combine so many touches of mas
culinity that the mannish suggestions
have departed from the riding habit,
till the only pronounced one remaining
is tho footwear. When women first
took to the stovepipe and skin-fit habit,
it was because II was about her only

ought to be made the most of. Now

than 20 years old, and finally how she
married old Paul Halliday. She locked
his idiot son in a barn and set fire to
the building, burning it to the ground.
She admitted afterward to her hus-
band that she did this to get rid of
the young man. Then came the crimes
for which she has been convicted. In
the latter part of last August Paul
Halliday disappeared. and while
searching for him neighbors found the
murdered bodies of Mrs. McQuillan
and her daughterin the Halliday barn.
This was in September, and a few days
later the remains of old Halliday were
found fearfully mutilated, and it was
charged his wife was guilty of his
death.
For long time after her imprison
ment Mrs. Halliday refused to eat, and
1t was necessary for the Jail physician
to feed her with liquid food. Last No
vember she tried to strangle Sheriff
Beecher's wife. Then she set fire to
her bedclothes and in December tried TO
kill herself by cutting her throat with
broken glass. 1t has been necessary to
keep her. chained to the floor for sew
eral months.

secret of this effect is. OF course, that
all neces ary compression must be
managed without giving to the belt
any responsibility. The most becom-
ing belt is thick. heavy leather one
that is made almost like mans: in
deed, she is a wi se girl who buys her
belt at a mems furnishing place, and
then has it cut short and repunched to
suit her waist Such belt worn loose

stretch and the filagree buckle is
strained out of line.
