AN ODD AUTUMN HAT.

Some of the new hats shown are any
thing but pretty; they are trimmed, or.
one should say, overturned, with a
quilting Of wide satin ribbon around
the crown, with great punches of coque
plumes at each side of the front, and
an immense bow at the back. One of
the prettiest I saw yesterday was of
black French felt; it had a quilting of
soft gray gros- grain ribbon, with mar
row black edges all around the crown.
but not standing above it. At the left
toward the front was bunch of uuills
in the same gray, While a bunch Of
ribbon formed a pretty but not too
large a bow at the back.

Il In the police court yesterday Judge
Wenger decided there was no ordinance

sons from advertising by means OF
moving signs, or under which they car
be prosecuted.
The matter was brought before the
= court by the arrest of the driver of a
wagon bearing the advertisement OF
q the Bristol horse show at the Lyceum
81 theatre. which was the result of nu-
VI merous complaints that the many can
vass -covered wagons employed for ad-
vertisins purposes in one way or an
3ther had caused many runaways. The
complaints at police headquarters be-
came so numerous that Chief Pratt
4 decided recently TO take steps to stop
ID the practice, if possible. He according
" issued orders to patrolmen to ar

Tobacco Trust Pr able.


NEW YORK, Oct S-The Sun says:
An effort is being made again by the
representatives of English capitalists
to acquire the properties of all the
manufacturers of plug tobacco in this
country in order to form plug to-
bacco trust. All that prevents the
consummaticn of the deal so it is said,
is the refusal of one of the largest
manufacturers to set price on his
property
ST. LOUIS, Oct. S.-The report pub
lished today in New York that an effort
is being made by English capitalists
to purchase all the plug tobacco fac
tories in this country is discredited by
the leading firms manufacturing plug
tobacco in this city. To a representa-
tive of the United Associated Presses
President John T. Liggett, of the Lig-
gett-Meyers Tobacco company, said to-
day:
THE story is all bosh. We will not
sell cur plant, nor have we been asked
to place a price on it."
President J. T. Drummond, of the
Drunlmond Tobacco company, said his
factory was not for sale at any price
to anybody-native or foreign. The re-
presentatives of other plug tobacco
factories are equally emphatic IN de-
nying the truth of the report.

I turn and watch with unshed toars F..
The furrowed track of ended years;
I see the eager hopes that wane.
The hopes that lie in endless pair
The coward Faith that faIsenoods shake
The souls that faint, the hearts that break
The Truth by livid lips DemOansd.
The Right defiled. the Wrong enthroned-
And striving still to understand,
The world to me is wonderland.

A little time then by and by
The puzzled thought Itself shall lie.
When. like the throb Of distant drums,
The cell inevitable comes

And fast the gathering shadows creep
To Iull the drowsy sense to sleep,
We two shall slUnber. hand in hand,
To wake Derhaps. IN wonder.land.

81 captain OF GOnce JOnH y. DOHoNuu
1gave Chief Pratt great surprise by
walking into his private office yester-
and handing him letter, in which
#he rendered his resignation from the
force. The letter read:
salt Lake City. Oct. s. 1896.
the Chief of Police and the Board
of Police and Fire Commissioners:
tGentlemen-Having concluded to en-
4gage in another line of business, ]
Thereby tender my resignation as cap
&tain of police, to take effect on the
431st day of October, 1896. Very respect
sfully, JOHN J. DONOVAN"
A COMPLETE SURPRISE.
VI Captain Donovans sudden determin-
nation to sever his connection with the
fforce was so entirely unexpected that
hit took everyone very much by sur
&prise, Chief Pratt TO less so than the
8rest Of the force. It was thought at
ffisst that some further unpleasantness
#had occurred between the chief and
#Captain Donovan TO actuate tbs latter,
Hbut the facts do not bear out the sup
position
Chief Pratt when seen said he knew
#of no reason for the action, further
than was stated in the letter. He
said his relations with Captain Dono-
van had bean entirely cordial for some
frnonths.
DONOVAN TALKS.
Captain Donovan said: Il had no
treason for resigning further than this.
/ have an opportunity to engage in
business, which viii be more lucrative
than my present position, and as l
have been on the force seven years, l
decided to step out and give someone
else a chance.
mo, there was no unpleasantness be-
tween the chief and myself. Our rela-
tons have been most pleasant since
last spring, when the mischief-makel-
whose name 1 need not mention-was
removed"
Captain Donovan declined to STATE
the business he intends engaging in,
but intimated that his next occupation
would be mining.
HIS SUCCESSOR.
There was much speculation among
the officers of the force as to who
would be selected to succeed Captain
Donovan, Immediately his resignation
WAS made known. There are several
Svho are eligible and who would like
SO fill the captaincy. Chief Pratt said
lie had no idea who the man would
be. as he expected the commission
would appoint the retiring captain
successor The men who are considered
the possibilities are Patrolman George
Raleigh, Sergeant Frank Wire and Pa
trolman John Burbidge. who served as
sergeant during the recent suspension
of Sergeant Eslinger. The latter is
also mentioned. The general opinion
bis that Raleigh VIII be the man.
SEVEN YEARS EXPERIENCE.
Captain Donovan has been on the
force nearly seven years. He was ap-
pointed patrolman on April Is, $780, and
on November 27 of the same year was
promoted to sergeant. He was made
captain in April, 1892, and has con-
tinued IN that position since. He has
been an efficient and faithful officer
and has made many friends during his
service. Beginning year or two back,
there has been considerable friction
between Captain Donovan and Chief
Pratt, which at times came near to
being an open rupture; but since his
lacquittal OF the charges filed against
him by the chief last spring, their
differences have to all appearances
been healed and all dlscord disap-
lpeared.

ESTHERVILLE, Iowa, Oct S.-Two
men, suspected of having committed
the murders at Sherburne Mimi, yes
terday afternoon, were arrested at
Swea City, near here, this morning
They give the names of Armstrong and
Graetinger, and tally with the descrip-
tons sent out. Both are bicyclists.
A large and well-armed posse is
securing the timber north, east and
west of this place, and still another
man answering the description OF one
of the murdererS was seen eight miles
north of here last night. 1t is generally
believed, however, that unless the men
now under arrest are the right men,
they have gotten further away than
the woods north of Baskerville, for it
is but about twenty miles from Sher-
burne to this point, and they would
have ridden that distance on their
track, to battle pursuers, in three hours
In addition to the posses at work in
this immediate vicinity, however,
others are securing the woods and
guarding the roads and crossings all
along northwest and north central
Iowa, and the whole country is aroused.
