Ex-Supervisor IL. {. Ross Joins the
Ranks of the Departed.
Henry c. Ross passed away yesterday
afternoon at his home near Geyserville,
Sonoma County, after long illness.
Mr.. Ross was well known III this
county, where he resided on the Cosum-
mes from 1859 to 1891, owning fine large
farm. He came TO this State in 1853, with
his half-brother, the late C. W. Pierce,
and engaged in buying cattle and horses
for six years.
In 1850 he was elected Supervisor and
served a term as Chairman of the board.
He was man who made many and
warm friends through his lifetime, who
will regret to learn of his decease, and
long remember his many good qualities.
He was born in Camden, Ohio, in 1884,
and was. therefore. nearly 60 years old at
the time of his death. Beside his wife,
he leaves eight children, four sons, Ce-
burn c., George, Henry G. ana Charles,
and four daughters, Lois, Susie. Matte
and Mabel. By his own request his re-
mains will be inferred at Healdsburg,
near his home.

and few friends were taking late stroll

"Pm going to give blast on this whistle,
and the name of the first policeman to re-

Then the Mayor took a good long
breath and blew n blast that aroused
several sleepers along the line-but no
policeman responded.
Now several officers are trying to recall

THE FASHION PLATE.

The black silk petticoat is an indis-
pensable factor in the wardrobe of every
well dressed woman.
A pretty dress for a child has spaces
cut into the material, with ribbon or
velvet run through
Foundation skirts for lace dresses do
not need to be very wide Indeed many
ladies like them better when they are
narrow. For this reason it is possible to
utilize an old silk skirt that might not
be available under other circumstances.
Trimmings made of very long strands
of beads arc increasing in favor. A
novelty is a girdle Of passementerie, with
IS inch strands set around its scallops.
This brings the lower edge in scallops
around the skirt, and the effect is very
pretty.
A handsome imported costume is
made of brocaded satin. There is a very
wide single box plait on either side Of
the front breadth, and the back is ar
ranged in series of narrow plaits. The
skirt is very full at the bottom Of the
back and very narrow at the top; there
fore these plaits are all in pyramid fash
ion. New York Ledger.

she would stake anything that Rev.

that If she spoke of that to DR.. Park

not vote and that their votes did not

would be that had the women had a

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16- Another COM
plicatiOn has arisen regarding the
free alcohol section Of the new tariff

failure Of congress to make the nee
essary appropriation, is unable to put
the law into effect. Notwithstanding
the secretary's decision. it is contend
ed that alcohol used in the arts. etc,
is free since August 8. Users of
alcohol in medicine and the arts want
to know If they were violating the
law in removing revenue stamps from
the empty barrel If they do not they
viii have no evidence upon which to
base claims against the government
for the return of the duty paid since
the law went into effect. On the
other hand, as the law now stands,
they are liable to heavy penalties for
not destroying the stamps when the

concludes:
To-day Nebraska is threatened with
POpulist domination. As business men,
regardless of partisan politics, we again
unite to avert the blight and business de-
preston which the supremacy of POpu I
lism would entail upon our state The
importance of the situation cannot be
overestimated. Throughout the business
centers of our country the action of our
state will be closely watched. If we
elect state officers in whom the business
world has no confidence and fav the
unsound, radical and unsafe theories Of
the Populists we thereby drive from the
state the foreign capital now here and
deter all from further invest ments among
US.
ITO elect the Populist ticket is to dis
credit N braska in the eyes Of the world;
it is TO proclaim that those who boast OF
their hostility to capital are in the ma
jority in our comm onWealth; it is to dis
courage enterprise, to suspend our prog
ress, to cause a heavy shrInkage of
values. to raise our rates of in terest, to
make longtime loans difficult or impos-
