4 sPLESDID EXPOSITION

or the New and Beautiful at the George H.
 ly Appreciated.
 One Of the events of the year in New Haven is the rich holiday display of the George H. Ford company. The enterprise of this mercantile house is proverbial and the elegance of its sales rooms and stock Is noted throughout the country. Its trade communications largely local, yet have important busi- ness channels of It's own throughout the eastern. middle and southern states and considerable part Of It's regu- lar trade, AS well as holiday trade, is with patrons in other sections, which speaks well for New Haven enter prise, sagacity and business facilities. The big store never looked finer than now. elegant as 1t always Is. The general effect both in the spacious main salesroom on the first floor, as also in the equally richly furnished and equipped art rooms overhead Is that of an extensive parlor or drawing room, rather than of the stiff conventional store display.
 The eye Is delighted with tine air of convenience, comfort and attractive ness which at once strikes the visitor, the whole artistic arrangement of the display challenging instant admira- tion. All the immense and varied ar- rays of choice articles, imported and domestic, seem to invite the visitor to inspection. The corruscating diamonds, the brilliant wares and art goods from the most celebrated potteries and man. ufacturers of the world, the thousand and one brilliant effects in rich dis plays of gems and jewels and golden combinations, the multitudes of fine watches, choice arrays of bric-a-brac and articles of vertu, the numberless small pieces of artistic merit, but of small cost and, in short. all the varied display, even to the big old tall clocks ticking away on the stairs seems to form the equipment for parlor of large dimensions. equipped in Oriental splendor and magnificence. The an- nual busy scenes of the holidays at this great emporium are now a feature again of Chapel streets trade and buyers find that with the houses fa- cilities for business, it's direct foreign importations, its proverbial artistic se- lections in every grade and depart ment, and its well equipped manufac- tory on the fourth floor, the location of such an emporium in New Haven is for our people.

After congrat- ulating them upon their reelection he spoke of the scene caused in the reich stag by the refusal of the social demo- crats to rise and cheer for him. The scene was deplorable, he said, but was not so insulting to him as to the house itself. One result, he thought, would be the earlier passage of the anti-revo- lutionary bill,

HOW He WAS CURED.
A Highly Dramatic Episode That Led a
Drunkard to Swear Of.

Highly Dramatic Episode That Led a
Drunkard to Swear OFF.
Not long ago prominent Main street
merchant was confirmed drunkard.
He loved liquor so madly that he was a
misery to himself and every one about
him, especially to his young and hand
some wife. One night recently he de-
cided to commit suicide. He told his
wife about it, and she was so miserable
that she said if he was to end his exist
ence she wanted to die too. The man
proceeded to drugstore in the western
part of the city, near his residence, and
purchased 20 cents worth of chloral. He
returned home and divided the poison
equally, and while they were in the no.
ton each swallowed the drug.
The young wife walked to the bed like
brave woman or coward, as you please,
and laid herself down to die. 1t was
different with the husband. AS soon as
the poison had been taken he began to
regret the step. In few minutes he be-
came frantic and rushed off to the drug
store where he had procured the chlore!
and told the druggist the situation. He
was relieved, with some trouble, of the
poison, but they had hard time in saw
ing the wife. She finally recovered, how
ever, and they get along happily together
now, as the experience caused the man
to stop drinking. This is true story.
Only three persons in Louisville know
the details, and all were sworn to secre-
cy the night it all happened.-Louisville

GOOD INDIAN CROW DOG.
AiA Escape and Return After He Had Been
Sautancad f0 naath

Sentenced to Death.
Judge A. ]. Plowman q Deadwood,
s. D., attained national renown in 1888
when he defended Crow Dog for the
murder of Spotted Tail The memory
of Mr.. Plowman's plucky legal fight,
in which he carried that celebrated
case to the United States supreme court
and secured the acquittal Of his red
skinned client when the hangman's
moose was about to tighten around the
neck of the condemned prisoner, still
lives in the minds of the legal frater-
nifty throughout the west.
In speaking of the matter Judge
Plowman related an incident of the
trial which has never before appeared
in public print.
after Crow Dog had been sentenced
to be hanged, said the eminent 5urist,
81 Went to Washington to lay the case
before the supreme court Of the United
States. l instituted habeas corpus pro-
ceedings to secure his release on the
question Of jurisdiction. While in the
nations capital l was surprised to re-
ceive telegram announcing that Crow
Dog had escaped from prison. re-
turned to the reservation after l had
completed my business at Washington,
and then learned for the first time the
cause which prompted the famous In
dian to escape. 1t seems that he was
walking in the corridor of the Jail one
day when half breed told him that
be would surely pay the penalty of his
crime and that the supreme court would
not interfere. This caused Crow Dog
some uneasiness. He was quick to act.
He watched his opportunity to escape
and did so. That stoical Sioux, who had
the reputation of being a man with a
heart of marble, deliberately struck out
on foot over 200 miles of country to
the reservation. Subsequently he vol
UNFAIRLY returned and gave himself up,
with the expectation of going on the
scaffold. In response to the question
why he made the trip and returned so
soon, he replied that he did not want to
die without seeing his squaw and pa
poose once more.
Events proved that he spent one day
at his tepee bidding his family what he
regarded as last farewell, and then,
with a wave of his dusky hand, he
mounted a pony ON his return trip to
the Jail from which he escaped. Crow
Dog is now on the reservation, hale
and hearty. He is hitting the pipe Of
peace and has no desire to wage warfare
on the government. He Is a good In
dian Omaha Bee.
