Mckinley Has a Clear Plurality o.
6I,lOo.


Columbus, o., Nov. 15.-The conten-
tion of the betters who took the Bryan
end of the bet that Mckinley would
not get SO. 900 plurality, that they have
won, because, if the Barr vote is count
ed, McKinley's plurality is under So,
900, is pronounced by Secretary OF
State Taylor to BE- very flimsy ex-
cuse. He said:
SIN presidential elections plurality
always means the plurality of one elec-
toral ticket over another. Strictly
speaking, Mckinley had no plurality
at all, for neither he nor Bryan were
voted for.
"The plurality of 81, 109 which Mack
the first elector on the Republican
ticket received over Powell, the first
elector on the Democratic ticket, will
be recorded in my report as McKinley''
plurality, just as has always been done
In fact, most of the men who voted fol
Barr voted also for the Democratic
electors. If his vote were counted
with that of the Democratic electors
it would be equivalent to having TWEEN
ty-four electors on the Democratic
ticket"

TWO NOVEL EVENING DRESSES Al EVENING CLOAK

the Marie Antoinette period. AS the
days go on and the church steeples, and
the hotel-plaited napkins get eliminated
from millinery, the new things that are
also good things get chance of notice
and appreciation. One of the smartest
and at the same time least exaggerated
models turned out by n Fifth avenue
establishment has high stovepipe
crown. Now stovepipes are not grace
full, but they offend the eye less than
cones. To be inoffensive is the most
one can exact of this seasons millinery.
The hat described is of black velvet with
founce of renaissance lace encircling
the crown and resting upon the broad
brim. A bunch of yellow roses touched
with pink lies on the right side of the
brim, while another bunch is tucked
in beneath on the left side above the
hair. A great cluster of plumes gives
the esprit sought in all hat trimming.
Theater headgear at last is small,
definitely and decidedly small. An in
structive example-one cannot call 1T
hat, nor yet is it bonnet-has tiny
crown Of Saweled cabochons with dusky
bats wings spreading at either side. A
theater hat has Tam o. Shanter crown
of pale yellow velvet, touched here and
there with golden brown. 1t is trimmed
with white paradise bird.
The best length for the theater opera
wrap is just to the knees; not the best
length instinctively, or the most grace
full, but the approved and most novel.
One such wrap is cape of silver white
velvet with lining of silver blue satin.
The cape is not a full one, but it is meant
to be worn open to show the thick ruch-
ings of blue chiffon that edge the lin
ing under the border of sable fur that
runs about the outside. Hanging from
the shoulders is n large Directory hood
of old lace, and the strings of which are
brought to the front and tied over the
bosom with bunch of sable tails.
One of the most luxurious long cloalss
yet shown is of dark green velvet, com
ing to the feet and with the full sleeves
not yet renounced for outdoor wear. II
has deep, fancifully shaped yoke of G
delicate green-white satin ermine. The
same fantastic design runs down the
front and finishes the sleeve cuffs. The
: standing collar flares and is filled il
about the throat with lace and ermine
Short capes are but little altered, ex
cept that by way of compensation fo
the late lamented sleeve, they are ap
/ to be full over the shoulders an'
. Aounced, very possibly. A pretty gir
5 wore at the horse show an ermihe cap
so full that it lay in plaits. Two dee
! ruffies of black velvet edged it at tn
. bottom, thread of lace peeping fro1
below each of them. A fiaring ermin

RoE's CRIME.
He killed Woman IN Nspa County, Cali

He killed a Woman IN Nspa County, Cali
fornia.
From the San Francisco Examiner
we clip the following concerning the
trial of William M. Roe, of Elk Town
ship, Noble county, who is on trial in
Napa county, Cal., for murder:
During the examination of Jurors,
Roe, the prisoner, tilted back in his
arm chair, his feet on the rounds of
chair. He displayed an ordinary in
terest in the proceedings and smiled
easily enough at incidents which made
others smile. His facial expression at
all times suggested sneer, even when
he seemed amused.
In appearance the confessed murder
err is thirty.six or thirty-seyen years
old. His forehead wrinkles with his
changing thoughts, but seemingly not
from the depth of the thinking. The
lines about his large but thin nose,
about his steel-blue eyasiye eyes, and
at the sides of his mouth, form and
disappear as readily and make his face
continual study. There is intelli-
gence-sharpness, rather-in the face.
The man would be fairly good-looking
if there were not something mean in
his looks When he smiles he looks
lust as mean as when he doesn't His
complexion is dark, his hair dark
brown; his mustache tinges from
brown to red at the ends.
The most noticeable habit of the
prisoner as he swayed back and forth
in his blue coat, negligee shirt and
cotton tie of white and black checks,
was continual nervous picking OF his
fingers. He held his hands together at
his knees and the indication of his
nervousness never ceased.
Roes defense will undoubtedly be in
the line of insanity, for he is no longer
boasting of his guilt He has given
his case oyer to the lawyers and his
adopted plan is to repudiate his con
fession on the ground that he merely
made the statements because he want
ed to die and expected that the people
of Napa would take him out of Jail anc
lynch him.
The crime for which he is being triet
was the killing of a woman by poison
ing her, in 1891. The victim was the
wife of man named Greenwood, with
whom he had had trouble.

In The Oil Fields.
OIL MARKET,
NEW DEVELOPMENTS.

At Newport, four or five miles aboye
Wayerly, Snakard & Co. got good
shallow well last week, which opens up
new pool. 1t is on the Atkinson
farm, and the oil was found in stray
Cow run sand. Its initial production
was close to 100 barrels a day, and on
the strength of this number of new
wells will start soon.
The Octagon Oil Company and Way
erly parties will complete shallow
we'll across the river from the town
Tuesday of this week. 1t is going to
the second Cow run sand, with good
prospects of success, as wells have come
in since they started on both sides Of
their lease. A remarkable thing about
this well was that they found oil at the
depth of so feet from the surface. 1t
was mere showing and, of course,
could not be operated. 1t is heavy
lubricating quality. AT depth of SO
feet they encountered rather strong
gas pressure for such a shallow depth.
The Belmont Oil Company, composed
of Wheeling and Bridgeport parties,
have secured block of leases in the
shallow field back of st. Marys, and
are drilling well which should be in
by the middle of the week.
In the old Cooper shallow field Lat.
shaw s. Co. last week completed well
on the VIM. Ingram farm, which start
ed off nicely. 1t was put to pumping
yesterday morning and in the first six
hours put eight barrels in the tank. Il
is located between the old Cooper fielc
and the Plum Run development ant
may start some new work. Latshav
& Co. will put down two new wells OF
the same lease.
A remarkable thing has been noticed
in the Cooper production within tn,
last few weeks. The production o
five wells owned by one company hat
decreased to 10 barrels day. Withou
any agitation they began increasing
and are still continuing to increase a
the rate of two or three barrels eacl
day. The production of the FIVE well
Friday was something oyer 40 barrels
The other wells in the field are report
ed to have shown slight increases.

ELLEN OSBORN'S LETTER.
A Few Peculiarities Of the Pre-
vailing Marie Antoinette Styles.
Small Theatcr Hats at Last-The Latest
Word OF Dame Fashion as to the Even
Ing Wraps and the Dainty
Evening Gown.
tcoprRroHT. 1861


New Yorls.-In conversation recently
a physician of some eminence deplored
the decline of sleeves. Balloons. he
maintained, contributed to buoyancy of
disposition. Nervously Frustrated pa-
tients would find mental depression re-
sulting at once from the pricking of the
bright bubbles about their arms. Let
him control the fashions of women and
he would control their nerves.
That doctor was wise, but there is
greater wisdom. And women possess 1t;
or the instinct which leads to the same
goal. Clip the sleeve wings upon which
they rise above eartl,'s troubles, and
they have no time to lament the bruises
of tumble, for, since one must walk,
shall ones neighbor get ahead in the
scramble for embroidered stockings and
new shoes? And flying is so disagree
able when walking is the style. Big
sleeves would give any woman nervous
prostration when small sleeves are the
thing.
And so turn we in better spirits than
usual from docked sleeves to overgrown
muffs and hats that soar into heaven.
Size is maintained always somewhere.
Would it not be a joke upon the doctor
| IL it were maintained in crinoline
Roopskirts would make a woman buoy
ant enough in all conscience to set the
physician quite at ease about her nerves
And the exchange is not so Impossible.
Since Sarah Bernhardt has staged
"Camille" with the dress of the time
when it was written, everybody French
is talking starch and hoops, and it is
never long step from the stage to the
drawing-room. Already we have scut-
tie bonnets for young girls. To be sure
they are small, not to obscure the fresh
faces too much, and to be sure they are
dainty things of gray. or violet, velvet
with lace ruchings and strings. But
scuttle they are, and scuttles and starch
are closely associated.
But we're not yet so nearly up to date
in our fashions as the crinoline of the
second empire. The befoe-mentioned
high hats and. overgrown muffs go back
like most of this seasons novelties. tc

THE RIBBON SASH.
1t Will BE Seen on Street Gowns as Well
as Evening Ones.

1t Will Be Seen on Street Gowns as Well
as Evening Ones.
The wide ribbon sash is to be worn
generally again this autumn, and our
modistes have arranged that they shall
be a part of the street costumes no less
than for evening gowns. A number of
new features, however, will be intro
duced. Hand-painted sashes and sashes
with fringed ends will be seen, also those
having the ends finished with an edg-
ing of feathers. Many debutantes will
wear with their party gowns sashes of
1ilmy tulle. These sashes, when tied in
big bow at the back, will give delight
fully airy touch to costume. One way
of wearing the sash will be to have it
form part of the bodice, being tied in a
bow on the left shoulder. Another new
way is to let it start from the back and
be drawn over the corsage, much like c
very short bolero. Right in the front it
lies in bow, with full loops and long
ends. When the sash is worn around the
waist it is very broad in front, tying at
the back in small loops, with long ends
This is one of the favorite ways in which
the sash is worn in Paris. Colors which
promise to be most in favor are the new
red shades. A cherry pink is one of the
latest exquisite colors, also a soft
brownish cherry. Any of the new rec
shades in the changeable glace ribbon
with the black edge, are most effective
Also all the varying tints of violet and
mauve will be fashionable. For stree
costumes the newest sash is of blacl
satin, about eight inches wide. Itlook'
much like corselet in front, fastening
with two small bows. In the bach il
fits the figure, and is trimmed with w
rows of buttons, which give it the ap
pearancc of fastening by means of th'
buttons. This corselet sash is high il
favor with French couturieres-Phila

ing knots of velvet and lace against the
skin. Velvet bows with lace ends were
perched upon the shoulders. The capped
girl had u muff. big baggy Marie An
toinette muff of ermine and velvet
trimmed with bows.
The season is yet young for evening
gowns. but from present indications
Marie Antoinette modes have the
strongest following. Taffetas, moires,
corded silks and satins in pale primrose
tints, rose tones, silver and blue are
prominently displayed. Pink and gray
is fnvorite combination. Black lace
over white is being made up extensively.
A beautiful dress jus. completed for one
of the first functions OF the season is
of pale yellow satin, veiled as to both
skirt and bodice with tulle. A thick
ruche of Russian vio1ets finishes the
hem, and clusters of violets catch the
draperies here and there. The bodice is
strikingly effective, with it's narrow
puffings of tulle from decolletage to
waist while the sleeves are loose puffs OF
tulle in which violet clusters nestle. A
gown of quite pronounced Louis XVI,
style is of lowered taffeta in white and
rose color. 1t is made with tablier
front of creamy lace ruffles, and has n
stomacher front, long and pointed, OF
taffeta and lace, with tiny ruche at the
neck. A gown of stately brocade, whicn
vet is designed for n youthful figure, is
of rose pink satin figured with silvery
white roses and serpentine lines. The
bodice as arranged in close fanlike
gathers at the waist, and is sashed with
pink ribbon tied nt one side in full
bow, into the knot of which is tucked a
handful of roses A bertha of mousse
line de sole edges the low corsage and is
caught up in festoons by clusters OF
! roses. The short sleeves are cascades
| of frills.
The indispensable tea gown is always
| the same, save that like beautiful
| woman, it adds careful touches to renew
its charm as the years of its reign wear
on. The trained princess effect, the
Vatican plait and the Empire effect all
! continue in vogue. A graceful Vatican
design recently on exhibition was car
ried out in delicate blue spotted gauze
yelling blue silk. 1t was cut low and
square in the neck, with bands Of black
satin to finish the decollctage. 1t had
black satin sleeves, puffed at the shoul
ders and softened at the wrist with deer
lace frills. 1t was fitted gown in spite
of it's Watteau folds, and with its
nipped-in sides had little of the air of ,

A charming tea jacket since appropri'

with popular zouave. A full vest Of
white crepe de chine was gathered at the
