SHOCKING WINDOWS.

At the risk of giving the chamber of WaxWork horrors that has recently To- cated on Chapel street free advertise ment we will remark that the windows of Waxwork horrors that lure to the chamber are entirely too conspicuous for this quiet and pleasant town. If there is any truth in certain medical theories, New Haven may soon figure as the birthplace of some strangely and sadly marked children. And if it doesn't the children who can at any time be seen looking into those windows will be marked by the sights therein in a way that is not desirable. Unfortunately some of the waxworks in the horrible windows are more or less true to life, or death, but that is no reason why they should be obtruded upon the mo- tice of all who walk our principal street, and wish to do 50 in peace and pleasantness. There ought to be some way of mitigating those windows. They do not compare we'll with the fine dis plays made in the windows of the Chap e1 street merchants, and they are not conducive to the happy thoughts which people who live in New Haven ought to have

HER HEAD FOR BUsINESS.

The New Woman can do anything. She can do business, and she is more of power in the business and financial world than tnoughtless ones think. Consider Hetty Green. Also consider what Mrs. Ellen M. Henrotin says in the National Magazine. She cites in- stances of successful management of financial undertakings which will sur prise the incredulous portion of the op- posite sex which stubbornly maintains that "a woman has no head for money matters Mrs. Henrotin takes the po- sition that the keynote of the readjust- ment of woman's position with the present day civilization is really a finan- cial one. She then calls attention to the fact that public opinion and the law have now come to regard the family as a partnership, thus fixing upon wo- men an ethical responsibility as to the
 making, managing and spending money for which they have been heretofore unfitted, but for which they must now be trained. Mrs. Henrotin estimates the amount of money now invested in real estate and mortgages by women at $15O, ,000,000 Some of the best paving property in the large New England cities is held by women. From the re- ports of recent investigation in build ing and loan associations it has been found that p per cent. of the building and shares of stock in the east ern and middle western States are owned by women. The present value of the shares held by women in New Jersey is $6,401, ,593. In New York State 32699 women hold 261, ,7S4 shares of stock valued at S5,935,554, and with maturity value Of approximately s25, GOO 900. The number of shares of national bank stock in the United States owned by women is placed at 1, 703, ,759. the par value of which is $780, 6S1,4 ,4S5.
 As instances of wonfan's splendid
 success in conducting the financial end l of big building enterprises, Mrs. Henro-
 tin mentions the Century Club of Phil
 adelphia, the club house of the Ladies
 Literary Club of Grand Rapids, Michi-
 gan; the club house of the Peoria GIL

IT NOTHING HAPPENS.

There was @ meeting of the board of finance last evening, according to the programme, but all the members were not present, so the gorgeous advertis- ing bills could not be considered" But they were talked about and there will be a special meeting of the board next Monday afternoon at which meeting the bills will be considered, if all the mem- bers are present. and a special effort is to be made to have all the members there. It is to be hoped that they will all be there and we do not think it too much for the people to expect at least one meeting of the board with all the members present. We also do not think it too much for the people to expect that a board of finance appointed for the express purpose of doing business in business-like way will deal with those bills in simple, direct and sen- sible fashion, If it doesn't the people will be disappointed, and a little more disgusted. Time will tell. Let us hope that there will not be any reason why all the members of the board cannot be present at the meeting Monday after noon, and let us hope that if all are present there will be no reason why they cannot do business

New hats have been in the milliners' windows all along, but the best models are only just being uncased, Mean while many wise woman has worn her heavy black or dark straw, finding in the warm weather an excuse for not rushing the change from straw to felt
 Heavy straws trimmed with quills and ribbon, without plumes or lace, have looked entirely suitable even with new fall cloth costumes. But that time has passed, and the new models must have attention. The first point to catch the eye is that elaborate hats trimmed with long plumes, especially black or white

She may want beautiful and formal evening gown, she may need change of grace ful and even richly delicate house gowns, but unless a reception costume demands q picture hat instead of the usual tiny headdress, or unless the box at the theater seem a proper place for the display of circumference in head gear, there is really little occasion in the average woman's winter life for conspicuously designed hats.
 Yet there are those plumes; should the winter pass without possession of some of 'em? If you cant say no to that, then don't go beyond the hat pie tured here in showiness. It was gray velvet, it's crown widening toward the top, it's brim perfectly straight. The crown was encircled with white satin, and the plumes were white and gray and held by an oblong paste buckle. Tn similar models the satin trimming is yellow, and this is offered as something desirably new, but it certainly does not seem so tasteful as white.

John w. Breidenthal, the State bank commissioner of Kansas, says: I am daily receiving letters from Kansas bankers about paper that I have made them charge off as bad debts being paid in full. One bank had six quarter sections away out in the coyote coun- try. I hardly considered such proper fly an asset, but agreed that they should be set down as worth S1O0 each, or $500 in the aggregate. Here is letter an- nouncing that one quarter brought $500 The bank has the other five quarters left to secure the other $100. Here is another letter from bank that I had been abusing about it's assets. It had four hundred acres of coyote country land. The president says he does not propose to sell it at sacrifice, and will buy it himself at twice the valuation I put on it. Some of the banks that I have been threatening to close up are in good shape now, and are talking back to me pretty plainly. A banker at St. John had q mortgage on every thing an old fellow had and I called the paper almost worthless q few anonths ago. The banker staked the man for one more effort He put in four hundred acres of wheat, hit it right. and has paid off his mortgage and much more besides.

The rush to the Alaska gold fields is expected to make 8 market for the semi horses of Washington and Oregon. Hitherto these ponies have been regarded as a nuisance, and as eating grass that should have fattened sheep. They have been cIassed with the jack-rabbits of other sections, and several times their extermination has been plotted. They have been sold in large numbers to the abattoirs to be slaughtered and canned for consump- tion in France, while their hides were used for covering trunks. The price at the slaughter-house ranged from $1 50 to $4, but prices are stiffening now with the demand for the Yukon. Good prices for the larger horses of the sturdy breed have been given for their use over the mountain trails. They are just as serviceable to founder through the mud and over the boulders of the treacherous trails as would be better horses, and they can be more readily spared if lost.

Dismissed the Case.

Yesterday afternoon the divorce case
of Mrs. Salvador Monte was by motion
of the plaintiff dismissed by Judge Secor
in the county court. And thereby hangs
tale.
During the latter part of May, the di
vorce proceedings were begun in the
county court by Judge North as attorney
for the plaintiff, Mrs. Monte, and papers
were duly served on the defendant
Monte, who was working in railroad
Office at Pocatello, Idaho. According to
the story, the attorney was to receive S25
for procuring the divorce, and did. upon
institutlng proceedings, receive $40, and
later upon demand, s. more, all of which
was duly receipted for. Meantime, it
is said, the attorney wrote to the defend
ant in Idaho, and under threat of secur-
ing from the Italian big judgment, de-
manded $50, and received by mail $40 on
account. Later he wrote acknowledging
the receipt of the $40 and demanded the
payment of the balance of $50 in person
or by letter.
This letter caused Monte to come to
Boulder at once, but instead of going
directly to the office of Judge North, as
the letter instructed him to do, he looked
up another attorney, and by his instru.
mentality, went to the home of his wife,
who lives north of town, and reconcile
alton was effec.ed. 1t was tnen agreed
to dismiss the case, and Mr.. North
was informed of this intention. Then, it
is claimed, although he had received $40
more than was originally agreed upon,
he demanded through the court sIoo for
attorneys fees, and $50 for costs. These
charges the court did not sustain. There
is said to be another feature of the case not
thoroughly clear, and that was the ser.
vice of summons upon Monte since his
arrival here to recover the sum of s2S2
and interest since 1887, amounting in all
to $3.50: the action claimed to be brought
by the plaintiff S father, an Italian,
who'is at present living north of Boulder
This action, the Italian dsclaims as
coming from him.
After the dismissal of the action by
the court yesterday, the plaintiff desired
to secure the possession of her marriage
certificate, but the attorney, it is said,
refused to relinquish them without the
payment of $40. Thus the matter stands,
