HEARD IN COURT.
Judge S.Iness Grants Michael Rear
don a Writ OF Habeas Corpus.

Mr.. Justice Htiness has ordered q writ
d, OF habeas corpus 10 be issued whereby
Michael Rearuon will be brought before
the appellate division OF the supreme
Court tomorrow az 10 o'clock. Rsardon
has beon In the State Jail i'm South
Kingston since Oct. s, having been COM
mittedAhere by the Third District Court
on complaint charging Frank White,
Dsniel Higgins and Michael Reardon with
committing burglary in Stonlngton,
Conn. Kesrdon pleaded not guilty, but
has not been given hearing as yet. In
the meantime Governor Brown has
granted requisition papers by " hich Rear
don is TO be delivered to the Connecticut
authorities. IL Is alleged that the
papers are informal, incomplete and
Insu uflicient and that upon proper hearing
Reardon will be able To show hat he was
not the person committing the offences
somplained OF.
Thomas O'Gormnn a rescript has been
handed down by Mr.. Justice Tiliinghast,
granting the motion OF the petitioners for
apreliminary Injunction. The suit arises
from the attempt OF the defendant, who
is tenant in the store OF
the plaintiff, TO occupy suen
. portion OF the first fioor, as would
cut the defendant of from the use of his
elevator. Mr.. Newell occupies the remain
ing part OF the building, and II IL acces-
sible only through the elevator and
the stairs. The defendant claims that the
plaintiff in leasing him the first floor did
not reserve the right TO use the elevator.
Judge Tillinghast is OF the opinion that
the lease of the premises occupied
by the defendant should not be so con-
strued as to permit him TO make pro-
posed alteration in his store which would
cut of the elevator, and thereby prscti-
cally destroy the plaintiffs business.
Before Mr.. Justice Rogers the case OF
James Lotus against Patrick Rogers was

declaration, and the case was continued
after being partly heard.

RIDING TIGHTS FOR WALKING
Novelties In Underwear for the Tailor
Made Girl.

Novelties In Underwear for the Tailor
Made Girl.
There are few practical garments
among the so-called reform suits.
Most of them are coarse in texture,
clumsy in design and as graceless as a
diving suit.
Two innovations only are attractive
the chamois waistcoat and the
equestrian tights.
The tights were brought out origin
ally by livery tailors. Later merchant
tailors recommend them for yachting,
outing and travelling suits. Now hosiers
make them in order, and most of the
leading dry goods houses carry them
in stock.
The idea is to pull them on over the
stockings and underwear, like child's
leggings, for the street, and remove
them indoors with the wraps. The
ankles are ribbed and intended to be
rolled at the boot tops in highland
style.
With one skirt of pongee, poplin or
silk, just for the sake of femininity,
these riding tights will be warm enough
for walk, shopping or outing in the
coolest weather.
The chamois waistcoats, tailor made,
fit the figure like glove from neck to
wrist and from collar to belt. 1t will
be some time before the shirt waist,
with the stiff bosom, loosens it's hold
on the tailor-made girl. With this
comfortless, If smart, garment, and
the stylish cutaway suit of light
weight cloth, designed for winter
wear, something had to be provided to
keep the girl from catching cold and
coughing herself out of existence.
After some hard thinking the channels
waistcoat was accepted. 1t is intended
to be worn under the shirt waist.-N.

A gentleman who has lately beeh
cruising through the Powder River val
ley tells an interesting tale in regard
to the manner in which the eagles con-
trive to ca tch sage-hens. These birds,
like the grouse family, fly with great
swiftness, and in stern chase an ca
gle is not in it at all with one of them.
In order that the eagle may dine on
sage-hen some hard work is necessary,
and the eagle has solved the problem.
As the gentleman was driving along
the side of a mountain he started a
covey of sage-hens, which flew away
down toward the valley. Suddenly an
eagle, which had been sitting on the
low ground, rose up under the birds,
which Immediately rose high in the
air, while the eagle topped up after
them. When they had risen high
enough another eagle swooped down
from above The terrified birds scat
tered in all directions, but the eagle
singled out one, and as an eagle on the
swoop goes like shot out of a gun, he
soon seized his bird, and the pair flew
off to neighboring cliff to dine

Asleep on the Bottom of a River.

A strange incident in connection with
the work of clearing away the debris
of the recently wrecked bridge at
Louisville is related of the submarine
diver whose duty it is to descend to the
bottom of the river and fasten chains
about the heavy iron work, besides
placing dynamite charges in spots
where the most desirable results may
be had. Yesterday he remained be-
meath the surface for more than an
hour. There was no response when
signals were made, and there was un-
easiness felt. At length the diver who
goes on relief reported for duty, and
he was at once sent down to ascertain
what was wrong. In a few minutes
both men came up. The diver was
found seated on a pile of iron fast
asleep.-Marine Journal.
