sympathy for John Tibbetts, who il
now working out fine of $50 for furn-
ishing cider to minors, is getting less on
ihe part of the men, or at least some Of
the men, who went bail for him, as thew
become ore conversant with the facts
which led up to his arrest, and the desire
TO get him placed where better influence
than those exerted by his associates would
be brought to bear upon him. The fact of
his giving away cider had comparatively
little to do in creating desire to put Tib-
belts in the house of correction.
1t was seized upon simply as furnishing
an opportunity to eradicate a more dis.
tressing evil. Tibbe.ts's father absconded
last fall leaving his mother, who is far
along in years, and his two sons, to carry
on the farm. Since then the condition Of
things at the farm has been anything but
pleasant. Tibbetts has ridden roughshod
over his aged grandmother, has stood by
and allowed her to carry water to the
stock, to split and carry in wood and he
has turned his hand only in perfunctory
way either for his own good or for the good
of the farm. Moreover, he has abused his
Younger brother, and night after night he
has had young fellows in his room carousinp
and drinking cider until his room was posi-
lively repulsve. Moral suasion proving to
be of no avail, his relatives sought other
methods of putting an end to his perform
ances and consulted the states attorney.
who advised that if prosecution was to be
made it be made on the charge of furnish
ing cider to minors, with the result that
Tibbetts was found guilty of six first Of
fences and was fined $50 and costs.
Five men furnished bail in the sum of
500 reasoning that it was an abomination
to nfict so severe a penalty upon law
abiding person for giving away little
cider several months previous. The whole
case has since been made clear with the
result that some of the bondsmen state
that had they known the exact condition
of things they never would have loaned
their influence in shielding Tibbetts from
what they now see were his just deserts.

During one of his journeys a famous
traveller came to a lonely cabin and
found the door wide open. In the cen
ter of the room he entered he found q
cradle, in which an infant was reclining
fast asleep The cradle was rocking
with surprising regularity, but no sign
of what propelled it could be seen.
The travellers curiosity was aroused.
Hewent to the cradle and found a stout
cord attached to a nail driven in the
side of it. The cord, he found, passed
through an auger hole in the side of
the house.
He took up the trail, which soon led
him into n ravine, where donkey was
standing and switching his tail The
mystery was explained. The other end
of the cord was attached to the ass tail,
and the constant switching of its caudal
appendage furnished motive power

The new ribbons are very attractive
and are evidently going to be more than
ever a feature of dress trimming. There
are gorgeous plaids and the most fasci-
mating array Of stripes, up and down
and across in the Roman fashion Three
or four shades Of one color are striped
together, with possibly velvet stripe
on one edge and then again there are
many stripes Of contrasting colors blond
ing together With a bright, pretty fleet.
Oriental broeaded ribbons add to the
variety, and So do glace ribbons with
fancy borders. There are uncut velvet
ribbons with the ribs running cross
wise, some in lovely colors, the newest
being a clear shade of purple blue
