1.-THE prisoner not having secured coun-
sell, and their conduct OF the case was
complimented by the large crowd in
the court room.
On the part of the State, Dana Har
mon, States Attorney, was abby assist
ed by John Bowman, 81 .hs aarai u
Kirkpatrick, Williams & Bowman, and
a persistent and able argument was
made for the plaintiff. Argument was
concluded on Thursday morning, ana
Judge Campbell charged the jury. To
many who were present it seemed &c
though the charge was decided favor.
able to the prisoner, and 1t was thought
that perhaps the finding Of the jury
would be for manslaughter only.
THE JURY.
The Jury was as follows. John
Whitsel. w. A, CARRIER, Joseph Hunt,
Carl McCurey, G. W. Cash. James
Hale, Geo. Mcpherson, Samuel Blair,
Samuel Ball, Ebert Morrell. J.. A.
Hartman, G. H McAdams, who re.
ceiyed the charge and retired to the
jury a few minutes before II
O'Clock, Thursday, and at 1:15 an
nounced their readiness to make a re-
port. Sims was brought into the court
room and in his presence and that Of
a dense crowd the jury handed up their
verdict, which was
GUILTY OF MURDER IN FIRST DEGREE.
The verdict was received by the pris.
oner in a stolid. indifferent manner, no
evidence being manifested Of any con-
Germ in the matter.
On Friday Judge Campbell pro-
nounced sentence of Death on Sims,
designating Tuesday. September 81,
1897. as the day ON which he should
pay the penalty prescribed by law for
his crime.
An appeal to the Supreme Court has
been taken in the case, and until the
result of this is known 1t can not be de-
termined when, if at all, the execution
of the sentence will take place.
We understand that " is claimed by
the defense that the trial was not fair,
and that q member of the jury had ex-
pressed an opinion, previous to the
trial, unfavorable to the prisoner. Blu
when this same juror was being ex-
amined as to his competency to serve
as q juror, expressed almost the same
opinion, the judge held that be wat
not, by that expression, disqualified al
a juror; he was accepted and served.
One thing sure, delay will result in
appealing the case, and it is the com
mon expression and opinion of the PEG
pie that such a delay in the execution
of law is the cause of mob law, and II
is not improbable that violence may
yet occur in this case. But we trusl
the fair name of our county may moi
be furnished by any such ~demonstra'
ton.

She Bathes in Black.

A handsome girl who is visiting Mrs.
Townsend Burden at Newport wears
all black in the water and makes
it most striking. Her bathing dress
is of black mohair stitched with silk
and unrelieved by any color. The
waist of it has a square yoke framing
the white skin of the throat The full
ness of the bodice is gathered trinity
into black belt making a perfectly
plain costume but in the rigor of its
cut probably the smartest to be seen.
Black silk stockings, black sandals and
black bathing cap belong to it inevi-
tably The bathing cloak worn by this
smilingly sombre young woman pro-
vokes reflection. When she comes trip
ping from the water, reminding one of
the old alabaster statues with draperies
of black marble. an attendant steps
forward with an armful of white mo-
hair. This armful resolves itself into
cloak that drapes more or less like
Roman toga, with heavy gold buckle
for a clasp on one shoulder and hand
full of folds thrown loosely over the 9TH
er. One arm is left free, and the gen.
eral effect is not unwelcome contrast
to the muff1ing wraps usually seen. 1t
leaves the sea nymph little of her
grace and activity. instead of turning
her the minute she leaves her native
element into helpless huddle of swad-
ding clothes ashore

work was merely the rough lattice
which was nailed over harem windows
to keep envious eyes from spying the
beauty of the Gagged birds Within But
anything that has to do with woman
becomes ornamental in no long time
and it would be hard to say just how
soon after the Hegira harem Win
dows began to be enclosed with the
beautiful "mushrebiyehs of turned
wood which are still the delight of art
lists in the East. The finest examples
are undoubtedly found in Cairo, where
elaborate baywindow shapes and
strange curving screens are constructed
entirely out of beautifully turned fret
work.
Cairo woodworkers, who make such
delicate work with such rude tools, need
long apprenticeship. Most of their
best wood nowadays is imported, as the
desert is not generous to the carpenter.
That which is intended for fretwork is
cut UP into short lengths by a crosscut
saw, which is used by two men or boys

BITS OF PARIS
STAGE GOSSIP.
Maurel as Correspondent.
Chaminade May Cross
the Atlantic.

Paris, Aug. 2-The scramble Of art
lists to secure the pickings of the con-
cert touring season is going merrily on
here just now. The merriment is likely
to change it's tone in a short time how
ever, for the season threatens. to be
very much overdone and many of the
hopeful singers and musicians are likely
to come to grief.
Manager Johnson has engaged: Ysaye,
violinist, at 100 francs a night for
one hundred concerts; Nordica at 200
francs night Pugno, the French pi-
anist; and Josef Hoffman, formerly
known to admiring New Yorkers as
"the boy pianist" but who is now a
grown man and demands sixty francs
a night for his services.
Manager Hirschberg has on his list
for concert tours: Marcella Sembrich,
soprano; and Salignac, tenor, who by
the way was not much of a success at
the opera last winter. Bevignani will
be the conductor. 1t is understood that
the husband of Nine. Sembrich is the
financial end of the combination. the
alto and baritone will be engaged in
America so that talent on that side Of
the water should be on the qui vive.
Another interesting item of operatic
gossip is that Melba has a goodly sum
invested in the coming opera season,
and people who know Melba's little Pc
culiarities of temper are wondering
what she will do If matters are not to
her liking when the season starts. This
financial complication introduced by
Melba into the vexatious operatic whirl
will make matters additionally interest
ing to those who are able to stand off
and watch the fun.
Maurel has been named as correspond
ent in the divorce suit which the hus-
band of Nine. Saville has instituted
against the latter in England. Maui
rels domestic troubles have been fur
ther complicated by suit which his
wife is about to bring against him in
Paris, so that the popular singer can
be forgiven for looking sad these days.
Calve has astounded the tuft-hunters
by positively declining to obey the COM
mand of the queen of England to come
over and sing to her. The prima DON
mas doctor having ordered her to rest,
the queens contrary order was treated
with contempt. Calve is something of
queen herself, and accustomed to
consult Calve regarding whose orders
she shall obey.
Manager Wolfsohn has for two years
been advertising Mile Chaminade to
give compositions of her own, but the
lady has not been well enough to enter
tain an offer. This year, when Wolf
sohn wanted to make terms, Mile Cha
minade promptly demanded $4,000 de-
posit. Mr.. Wolfsohn retorted with a
demand for a deposit of equal amount,
to which the popular composer and
pianiste would not agree; consequently
Chaminade will probably make her New
York debut during the Lenten season,
under private management. Mile
Chaminade will play her own plano
compositions and be assisted by some
we'll known singer. She already has an
offer from a wealthy New Yorker for
the first recital at his Fifth avenue
house.

run by Italians, there are no power
lathes in Cairo nor even foot-lathes
with balance wheels. A simple hand
lathe, placed within six inches of the
floor on which the workman sits, is the
universal tool. 1t is turned with bow
the string of which is brought once
about the shank of the lathe, and the
motion of turning is something like
rapid fiddling on big violin with a
long bow. The workman fiddles with
his right hand, guides his chisels with
his left, and gives them the requisite
pressure with his bare foot. Sometimes
little boy is impressed to turn the
lathe with the bow, but quite as often
the little boy has an entire lathe of his
own and works almost as rapidly as
his elders.

muscles and joints. The dance is ac-
companied by dreamy, waltz-like music
and is extremely pretty as we'll as
practical. The student sways from side
to side, backward and forward, sinks
now upon one knee and now upon the
other, rises so slowly that the move
ment is almost imperceptible, hovers
like a butterfly, with extended arms,
and sinks again in a graceful abandon
to the floor. 1t may not be all grace at
first, but it is pretty certain to be be-
fore the lessons end.
The Penelope web is designed to train

is required to initiate the movements
of arms, fingers and hands in weaving
and ravellng. The natural awkward
ness changes into charming grace un-
der this exercise, with wonderful rapidL
ity. This, too, is accompanied by slow
music, dreamy as the siren strains that
sought in vain to keep Ulysses from his
faithful Penelope.
The voice also is carefully trained. ana
conversation becomes almost a song. 50
exquisitely modulated are its tones. so
rhythmical its melody, and when the

Untrimmed sailors are looked upon as
y necessary evil, and even those which
necessity compels one to wear are sof-
tened with white veil, which is mere
ly tied around the crown with the ends
falling over the hair at the back.
Blondes in blue are out of date, now
adays. The real fetching blonde wears
geranium pink, which is more brilliant
than scarlet, and pretty generally be-
coming to fair beauties.
Grey is also a very smart color for
outdoor costumes.
Cashmere will be a favorite material
as the days grow cooler, as its soft
folds fall in well with the present tend
ency to dropping draperies. Grey
cashmere for street dresses will there
fore be the extreme correct thing in
early autumn. Hats with high crowns
are already being manufactured for the
season of 1898.
