In many respects" says a gossiper in
THE Chicago Times Herald" "H Clay
Evans, of Chattanooga, Tenn, closely re-
sembles Major Mckinley. Like Mckinley,
his moral character is without blemish. He
never has used tobacco in any form; never
drinks liquor of any kind; never swears;
never tells vulgar story or remains where
one is being told; is as pure and gentle as
the purest and gentlest of women. In all
of these respects Mr.. Evans is like Major
Mckinley. They are about the same age,
both fine appearing men, both popular, both
high type of American citizenship, both
ex-soldiers, ex-Congressmen and ex-GOver-
nors."

Summer Capes Dressmaking Millinery ::
Flower TOqueE.

Summer capes are a perpetual study.
Beautiful ones are of Persian or Dres-
den silk and with varied hue, form a
charming contrast to black skirts and
harmonize equally well with black
hat trimmed by ribbon of like character
or perhaps with crown of same material
and nodding black tips in finish. Cape
trimmings are black and thus the acme
of contrast is reached throughout,
since cOlorings are verified, yet shown
forth with tOning effect. Black or
colored silk capes are often almost
covered by faring ruf1es of point
GesprH embroidered on the edges and
laid in box plaits: wave like garnitures
of chiffon fulfill a kindred purpose;
pinked silk ruffles continue the story,
while neck trimmings form an ava
lanche of softness about the throat.
Ostrich feathers are sometimes brought
into requisition for such purpose and
tips at the back loom forth from sur
rounding masses of adorment.

Constable Dan Clyne received tele-
gram from Sheriff Sullivan, of Poca-

for grand larceny, he being charged
with stealing some cattle from dairy
at Pocatello. Dan located his man
and placed him in Jail for safe
keeping until this morning. On going
in last night to see If his prisoner was all
right, he discovered that he was trying
to escape by charring the wall with q
hot poker and whiting it out with a
pocket-knife. Dan sat up with him the
balance of the night to insure his safety
against escape. He is OF the opinion
that the Jail should be improved to pre-
vent the possibility of prisoner escap
ing. The prisoner was taken to Poca

Sunday morning at 2:40 o'clock, Po-
liceman James B. Scanlan, of Pocatello.
was cowardly stabbed by tramp, and
died from the effects of the wounds at
ii o'clock, Monday morning.
The tramp was on the platform when
the Butte train was preparing to leave,
and was very noisy, profane and OBJ
scene. The officer endevored to quiet
him, but to no purpose, and then start
ed to take him away. He resisted and
Scanlan struck him over the head with
his gun and ordered him to leave. He
obeyed but soon returned and ere Scan
Ian was aware Of it, he pounced upon
him and cut him three times in the left
side and then fed.
Scanlan staggered TO the waiting
room, and when medical aid came it
was found that his spleen was cut in
two, and that it would be miracle if
he survived the wounds. The murderer
made good his escape and up to this
writing has covered his tracks to well
that there is no clew TO his whereabouts.
Pocatello is justly indignant and thor
oughly aroused to the determination of
speedy vengeance upon him when
caught. Every effort will be made to
capture him, and he may be sure he
win find no resting place wherever he
may fly TO keep good his escape.

AT O'BRIEN'S.

BY far the largest and most severely
critical audience of the season assembled
at O'Brien's last night to witness the first
appearance of Della Fox as THE Little
Trooper" AS early as noon yesterday
the IS. r. o." sign was displayed at the
box office, and despite the fact that fully
200 people were turned away equally as
many If not more, stood during the entire
performance.
1.-THE Little Trooper" is decidedly
Frenchy, in fact, too much so for the
SOUTH but it went last night and that
was sufficient to pronounce it success.
The company is an unusually large one,
and Miss Fox is fortunate in having some
very fine support. Harry MacDonough,
Frank Blair and Miss Nellie Braggins
were exceptionally good in their respec-
tive roles, the former as comedian and
the latter as a vocalist.
OF course all interest centered in Miss
Fox, and her appearance was the signal
for joyous welcome. Petite and precise,
Miss Fox was all that could be desired.
Gifted with pretty form and clear voice,
beside being a clever actress, she easily
won her way into the hearts of the audi
ence. She sings well and acts with an
ease and grace which readily stamps her
an actress.
The plot is largely made up Of jealousy
between two women, and the scene being
French camp, one can imagine q great
deal of the plot in advance Of the climax.
AS whole the performance was enjoy
able and Miss Fox can feel assured of a
fine audience should she visit this city
again.
