Art HanginGs.

Women who can use the brush clev.
erly are painting the art denims for
hangings and for mounting dining
room. bedroom and piazza screens for
country houses. The designs are large
and snowy, and show flowers, scrolls,
or feathers. Sometimes the edges of
the flowers are outlined with embroid-
cry silks or gold or silver, and the rest
Of the design is done in tapestry dyes
Sometimes the metal paints are used in
stead of metal thread to brighten the
outlines. A screen covered with old
blue denim is ornamental with pea
cock feathers, and one with lattice
work over which masses of pale blue
and purple morning glories trail
Sometimes heavy braids of metal
threads two or three inches wide are
applied in crosswise or lengthwise
bands to the denims when used for a
hanging. and if draped q large gilded
rope is used for the purpose. Hang
ings of this cloth, however, look best
in straight folds.-N. Y. Post. .

Tho Kent Case.


1t was . solemn scene that was en-.
acted in the court room at Fargo, when
William Wilder Pancoast, better known
as Myron R. Kent, was brought before
the bar of justice and sentenced to be
hung by the neck until he was dead on
Oct. IS next.
The arguments on the motion for a
new trial were completed about 6
o'clock in the evening. Judge McCon-
nell announced that he would take an
adjournment until $3.50, when sentence
would be pronounced. At 10 o'clock
the face of every man in the room ex-
pressed intense solemnity, and when
Kent was brought in every heart felt
that death had approached. He took
his seat in the usual manner. His face
was somewhat flushed and the muscles
of his body twitched. When the Judge
said. 'Myron Kent you may arise" he
was startled. He quickly arose to his
feet, his eyes sparkling with excite
ment. He was asked by the court if
there was any reason why sentence
should not be passed upon him. He
said: If the court please. have much
to say"
He was allowed to speak. and for
about an hour and half he spoke with
great fuency. and, as he advanced, his
voice grew stronger and stronger until
the room rang with pleadings that pen
etrated every heart in the room. His
voice would moderate again and he
would advance near the Judge. and
when some intense feeling would over
take him he would move backward and
with high extended arms he would
plead in a most impressive manner.
Finally, turning to the judge, he said:
Il leave it with you. You are to dis
charge your duty. have the greatest
respect in the world for you. but be.
