what 10 DO with our Hands.

It Il sometimes interesting 60 observe
the awkward use mon mako Of their hands
at formal indoor asscmblagos Of the two
sexes. To large number these mem
bers are positive incumbrancc, and every
device is ros0rted To IN order TO find en-
ployment for them.
During the rcigEs Of Louis XIV, XIV
and XVI, when the clcgancios Of high life
were studied in the ininutest details, the
suEcrnufty Of the hands was q mattor Of
grave concern
Relief was found, however, IN tho POM
mel OF tho sword, the bonbon OF tho snuff
box These proved havens Of refuge, and
manual awkvardness was saved from
shipwrcck.
The snuifbox endured until tho carly
years of the present century, but since 10
has PASSED away the society man Is left TO
such devices for the use OF tho hands as in
gcnuity can suggest
The beacon of salvation Is at last In
sight through the vogue now In progress
OF growth in Paris, for the use Of bonbon
boxes by men. These roceptaclcs are com
ing into common use and many are OF
great cost and beauty OF workmanship.
They arc made in chased gold and silver
or cnaneled and set with precious stonos
Not only do they contribute decorative
note 70 social functions, but they offer re-
lief TO those men whose hands arc appar-
entity suporfuoHs on such occasions. -

A Murdcrer snIctdes.

HYDE PARK, Mass, Sept 1.-THE
tragedy in the Italian quarter in Boston,
whore Bornadu Ambrisli, hotel proprie-
tor, was shot down In cold blood by his
insnno clerk and confidential employee
Charles Baoigalupo, had It's sequel in tho
discovery of the dead body Of the murderer
on the bHnks OF the Neponset river, about
a mile below here The same hand and
tho same weapon which caused tho death
of the Italian hotel keeper put an end to
the life of Bacigalupo. The police searched
the banks of the river and found the muir
derer lying In the woods with a ghnstly
hole I'm his hend and tho pistol by his side
That he might have resisted capture Is
probable, for ia his pocket wero 100 extra
cartridges Iu is supposed that Bacigalupo
had assistance from the ItiHian colony in
reaching this town, for he was not seen
on any train.

ToLLGATE RIOTS.
Springfield. Ky. PatroiIed by Armed Mon
Because of the Mob.

BecAhse OF tne MOD
SPRINoFIELD Ky. sept. 1.-THE peo-
pie of this, Washington county, voted last
fall TO make the turnpikes free through
out the county. As the pixies are owned
by companies Il is necessary for another
vote OF tho people to assess taxes to pur-
chase the pixies. This vote has not yet
been taken, and the authorities cannot
legally stop toll gathering. This the peo-
ple of the county do not understand, and
out OF patience with delay they have riseR,
In rebellion and torn down about all the
tollgates in the county. This riotous bust
moss has been going on for two weeks. As
tho county authorities, whom the mobs
blame, live here this town has been threat
sned, and for two weeks people hers have
lived In terror.
Not a soul enters or leaves Springfield
without giving a good account of himself.
County officials are afraid TO raise hand
except to protect the town. They are not
accused OF oowardice, but fear the conse-
quences of an attempt TO restore order with
the meager support at their command and
the almost moral certainty Of failure.
County Judge Jack W. Thompson has
written for publication an APPEAL to all
good citizens TO aid him in upholding law
and order The general feeling is In favor
of letting matters take their course for
the present and not inhame the excited
mobs in the county.
