from the masculine molescloth or linen
trousers They are cut with the poul-

Winter trousers may be bought Tor

handsome piece of winter trousers that
may be worn with any dress for walk
ing or driving is made of black satin
with alhatross lining; the price Is from
$40 so up. If a woman has ideas or
her own and insists on having brocad-
ed satin thick enough to stand any

velvet trousers. with rhinestone buttons.
and for these she will pay from $40
to $50. As yet there is no demand for
creased trousers, but these VIII come
in time.

travelling. for steamer wear. for skat-

coolest weather. The younger women
who don't hover continually over the
fires in the big country houses find
them invaluable in their long drives

A strong guard OF British troops then
moved forward and surrounded the king

prominent chiefs and the ambassadors
without any trouble, so suddenly was the
movement made and so effectively was 10
carried out. The prisoners were quickly
removed TO a large house, which was sur
rounded by the guard, and then tha
Ashantees were quietly dispersed BY thu
troops.
The whole affair was splendidly ar
ranged and admirably executed. In fact,
from first 10 last, from the moment ths
expedition was first organized until "
reached Coomassie, there has not been o
single hitch in the arrangements, and ~
has not been necessary TO fire a shot.
Every provision which IL was possible to

the most perfect system. Thus the Ia

sent to Cape Coast Castle TO take part In
this expedition, who suffered the most
from sickness and who also proved less
able TO sustain fatigue on the march in
the hot weather prevailing in Ashantee.
Finally, 1t may be said that the submis.

insure British supremacy in that part oil

will be kept at Cape Coast Castle until tho

until all the other questions connected

Near Coomassie, the British discovered
and burned the notorious sacrificing

Francis c. Watson Of Hop
kintOn to 60 Free.
Was Sentenced to Four Years
in Prison Last July.
Appellate Court Decides Indictment
Was Not Properly Drawn.

Francis c. Watson of Hopkiaton was
indicted, tried and convicted and sem
fenced In the common pleas division of
the Supreme Court in Washington County
in this State In July, 1895, OF the offence
of unlawful cohabitation with Mary A.
Watson. He was sentenced 10 four years
IN jail. Watson had another wife living
to whom he was married at Sterling.
Conn, in 1870, and who is still living.
Recently Mr.. James Il. Dennison Of
Westerly, on behalf OF Watson. filed a pc
tition for q writ OF habeas corpus and
asked the appellate division Of the SUI
preme Court TO discharge the prisoner
from custody because the indictment un-
der which he was tried and sentenced
failed to charge any offence under the
statute OF the State against bigsmy or
bigamous cohabitation.
The indictment failed to nllege a second
marriage, and 1t was commended by Mr..
Dennison that when the first marriage
has taken place In another county from
the one In which the party is accused OF
illegally living with another woman the
second marriage must be alleged in the
indictment.
Judge TilIingnast, in a long opinion,
carefully reviews the matter of indict-
ments for bigamy and bigamous cohabi-
tation, and decides that the indictment
against the prisoner was not properly
drawn and orders the prisoner discharged
from custody.

Think They are Well Enough
Known.

The Durham SIN says there
are mum bers Of merchants who
seem to think that it is not nee
essary to advertise their business
They act upon the assumption
that people know, or ought to
know, where they are and what
they sell. Advertising their
business, they think, is an ex>
pense they ought not to be
obliged to incur. This is very
foolish. The newspaper is the
best friend of both the merchant
and the customer, and every
good word IT carries from the
former to the latter is worth
many times what it costs Then,
too, you should not expect the
publisher to give away his space
any more than YOU expect the
merchant to give away his goods.

Elsewhere in this paper Will
be found an article headed "Give
the boys a new Flag" i'll which
the question is asked Why the
ladies of Elizabeth City can't do
for the Naval Reserves what the
ladies OF Edenton did for their
Military Company?
The FISHERMAN & FARMER
heartily endorse the movement
and suggests that something be
done in the matter at once. The
Naval Reserves are very deserV-
ing, and the medals recently won
by them is truly a compliment
to Elizabeth City.
The good ladies of Edenton,
who are never backward in dos
ing what they can for the pro
motion of any organization that
is beneficial to their city, are to
be congratulated On presenting
the Edenton Company with one
of the handsomest and most
costly flags in the North Carroll
ma regiment.
A flag is thing of beauty as
we'll as a symbol OF patriotism
and protection. In case of war,
or riot, the flag Of our local sol
diery would be the first to spread
its. protecting folds over our
homes to shelter our mothers,
wives, sisters and sWeethearts.
If their fair hands had been in
strumental in unfurling the
banner above our boys their
blood would flow but the freer
for our fresides and fair ones. .
The FISHERMAN & FARMER
suggests that after Xmas our
ladies get up a Bazaar or some
entertainment for this purpose.
The people will patrouize it.

TREE VANDALISM.

Our city needs. more trees.
Our citizens appreciate this and
many property owners have
planted and are planting them,
But every year one half of the
trees planted are killed by chill
dren,1 boys, and even men
swinging on them. This, Selling
a young tree and swinging
around it, loosens the roots and
the tree dies. Besides often you
see wh,re some one has de
liberately eirdled the tree wifi
ak, knife or stone. We know
of five trees in a row thus killed
last Summer The city should
have an ordinance to punish
severely this sort of vandalism
A r, ward should be offered for
the detection Of Any abuse of
trees along our streets. Ever
tree is worth hundred dollars
to any city. Every rascal who
is caught injuring a tres, ought
to be caught and tied to it, and
have every switch off the tree
worn out on his back.
We voice the demands of
many property owners when we
call upon our city authorities for
protection to our young trees.
