QUALIFIED TO ACT AS JUDGE.
A Western IIuiIidrlst Who Decided Case
In Favor OF Buffalo Bill.

In Favor OF Buffalo BILL
Buffalo Bill once gave a show in Car
son City, New, and on the opening
night the house was packed to the
doors. The audience, however, went
away dissatisfied because Mr.. Cody him
self did not appear. The celebrated
cowboy, when the time came for him
to startle the audience with his deeds
of daring was not to be found. So the
good people of Carson dubbed the show
fake" and after the first night only
few attended. Charles E. Locke, the
manager of the show, brought suit
against Buffalo Bill to recover
damages. 1t caused big sensa-
tion in Carson, for the residents of
that town knew very little of the mer-
its of Thespians of any kind, and there
were few, If any, who could honestly
tell whether or not it was more graft
flying to the audience for an intoxi-
Gated actor to appear on the stage and
make fool of himself, OF remain be-
hind the scenes in the arms of Nor
pheus. The Judge of the court did not
like to decide the case between Messrs.
Locke and Cody, and it was impossible
to find jury with sufficient intelli-
gence to understand the matter. FL
nally it was agreed to let Sam Davis
decide the case. So the sage bush hui
morist was brought before the tribunal
and was closely questioned by the
Judge, who wanted to see how much
Mr.. Davis knew about the drama.
'Have you ever been in theater,
Mr.. Davis?' asked the judge.
Eyes, SIR"
''Do you think that you can tell the
difference between man who is intox-
icated and man who is sober?'
''Most assuredly," answered Mr..
Davis.
Ibid you ever hear of theatcr
where the play drew largely on the
first night and continued to draw
largely during the run of the play?'
Yes, sir"
"Where?'
SIN London. It was tragedy"
"Who wrote it?"
civilian Shakespeare"
''Now, Mr.. Davis, did you ever hear
Of theater where the play drew
largely on the first night and only
eight or ten people on every night
thereafter?'
Eyes, SIR
"Where?"
"In London. Itwas tragedy also. y
''And who wrote that tragedy?'
81 did"
Mr.. Davis was unanimously selected
to decide the suit, which he did in
favor of Buffalo Bill.-San Francisco

Loud Grief Expends Itself.

"The person whose grief is mani
tested in violent paroxyisms is fortu-
nate" said DIR. l.. J. Wilton. II have
never known case where there were
loud cries, wailing, and moaning that
did not soon recover completely. One
of the first patients l ever had was a
young man who had met with an acci-
dent. He died within an hour, and the
grief of his young widow was most dis
tressing to those present. 1t was with
the greatest difficulty that we could
restrain her from throwing herself
upon his coffin in the grave, but in two
months she was married again and
seemed to be perfectly happy. Grief
that can not be thrown off by out
ward manifestations is what tells

SWEET SIMPLICITY THE RULE.
Washable Gowns Made Up in Extreme
Plainness That Il Becoming.

Washable Gowns Made Up in Extreme
Plainness That Is becoming.
The tendency to make up wash goods
according to the severity in vogue for
wool material is increasing. Linens,
ducks, chambrays, challics and all the
wash weaves of silk are made up with
strict severity, and the effect is charm
ing. A favorite design has a little
round bodice cut down to a point at the
waist in front to show vest and four
buttons are set almost at the waist line
in front to carry out the effect of an
overgarment. The vest is usually a
prim affair of moire, even with wash
material for the rest OF the gown, but
sometimes it is a dainty front of null,
gauze or chiffon, accordion plated and
gathered into high collar. A pretty
finish provides the outer part Of the
bodice with Understanding collar, un-
der which the collar of the front passes
as it extends to the back,
Black-watered silk and slate-colored
cloth are combined in the dress.
The underskirt is from the latter, and
the draped overslirt is ornamented
with two moire ribbon rosettes, which
hold the folds in place. The bodice
fastens in the center and plastron Of
white mousseline de sole laps over A
large directoirc bow of the mousseline
is placed at the neck, and the revers
are attached to turned-down collar,
both of the silk The pulled sleeves
have epaulettes Of Alencon point lace.
If one can not afford really fine silk
stockings then it is just as well not to
have silk at all, but to be content with
fine Isle. Cotton stretches, and after
the first wearing does not fit about the
ankle. Lisle fits as well and lasts
longer than silk. 1t is the proper thing
to wear on the street with the russell
shoes now in vogue. The shoe. should
be SO dark that brown stocking suits.
Caters must not be worn unles they
match the shoe. White duck and brown
linen are shown, to go over shoes made
to order from the dress goods--N. Y.
