THE NEW COAT
OF THE PRINCE.
lie Has Discarded the Prince Albert
MadcrFamons Bv His Father, and
Is Wearing New Style.

Double breasted frock coats are old
fashioned now. The Prince of Wales
said so the other day by appearing In a
new kind. And yet his own father.
Prince Albert. gave the name to the
coat which is now laid aside.
The neE coat differs from the old nm.
Al having single row of buttons. It
sinSic-breasted. Could there be any
greater change-from two rows of but
tons placed equi-distant to one row.
The Prince wore such a coat at the
Queens garden party, and, of course
that settled 1t for all fashionable Lon
don.
In the back, too, there is q r. mark
able change. The buttons exactly to,cb
the small Of the lumbar region. which
is not the fashion for ordinary "frock.
ers." And most remarkable of all the
lapels are faced to the outside edge
with silk, instead of showing a connie
of inches OF cloth,
The coat just meets across the chest
The buttons are not put on to button
The Princes generous girth hardly per.
mlts any coat to be buttoned. All Of
Wnlch is an advantage. for, as the tail.
ors to His Royal Highness say;
1t mas three advantages. 1t IL COOL
er In summer, it is far out of the com
mon and 1t permits a fancy waistcoat
to be shown to greater advantage"
or course the old mid time fi,ork coa+
IS now gone in London. Within a waak
there will not be one on view from Re-
gent street to Piccadilly, save nam
superannuated clerks and wearers of|
cast-of clothes. All fashionable Lon.
oon town Is besieging its tailors for ex-
act copies of Wales's new coat.
When the Prince began to get ton
stout ,he used to wear a gold link IN
his frock coat fastened across the twn
top buttonholes. This kept the coat tn.
gether without forcing him to button
it across his bursting chest. But even
with his seal of approval this fashion
did not go. 1t wouldn't work at ALI
with attenuated Brltons. Few Ameri-
cans risked 1t, and those that did were
laughed at. 1t is feared that even tbs
approval of the Prince will not maxi
this coat popular in America.

sick, is up again.
Policeman Abercrombie is acting
City Marshall while Mr.. Quinn is at
Hot Springs.
Majors Fair and Polkadot, two color
ed hackmen, employees of different
stables, had a fight WEDNESDAY night,
but Mayor Yerger took in the gate re-
ceipts, which amounted to $50 and
costs.
The police court last Monday morn
ing drew quite crowd There was
nothing startling, but always after
Saturday night there is generally
jugfull awaiting uncorking Monday
morning.
DISTURBING THE PEACE.
The first case called was that OF Jno.
De North and Gen. Wood for disturb
ing the peace by fighting. When
asked by the Mayor if they were gully
or not guilty, John, without hesitation,
pleaded guilty and as reward the
Mayor gave him Sand costs. Gen.
Wood, the other negro in the case,
one-legged veteran of the crap table,
was represented by an attorney and
got off without paying cent, but the
attorney came very near losing his
tee, as the court asked Gen. if they
were not shooting craps when the light
started, and Gen. started to say $1,000.
But his attorney spoke up in time to.
save The court from getting his fee
for fine.
Two other cases were called and
both pleaded gnilty and were fined the.
regular s. and costs.

costs at Sallie, which made her cast
look of vengeance at her accuser.
ASSAULT AND BATTERY.
Occar Robinson another coon, was
brought before his honor on charge
of assault and battery on a colored
damsel, Rose Wood. Oscar was rep
resented by an attorney who called for
. jury, but before the jury was sworn
in the attorney made motion to
ouash the affidavit on account of
error which was sustained by the
court and Oscar was again free and
happy. But his happiness soon turned
to sorrow, for hardly had he gone a
block when he met his wife with
basket under her arm and the follow
ing dialogue took place:
OARS your close, Oscar. Take
dem an gif' me dat baslkit.'
"What's dat you say?" asked the as
tonished Oscar.
ifDar's your close. Don't specs

Don't speak Ter me, boy. Oars

back. =
Oscar, seeing there was no getting
around it, got permission from one of
his color to put his clothes in his
house. Then he handed her the bas-
ket and they parted. But some of the
nelghbors say that several nights since
he has been standing at the front
gate singing the song, "Let me bring

II IL plain to every Democrat IN the
state that the party needs an infusion
Of Tammany blood politics In It's veins.
For four years things have been going
awry. Many members have heeu leav-
Ing the cultivated portions Of the field
and aligning themselves 90 the outside
along the fences and In the fence corn
ers. The principles Of the party have
remained the same, but the members
have driftsd spArt, but fortunately, not
far enough 70 get on the outside Of the
fence.
What the party needs now Is Tam
many union, Tammany harmony, Tam
many enthusiasm, Tammany respect
and courtesy for its members aud Tam
many love for success Of the party.
Tammany il the strongest political
organization In the world. It's work
inRs are perfect-lts members are .
unit and they rush together when
wanted like we'll trained soldiers ut the
bugle's assembly call. Tammany il =
machine, we'll balanced, with no fric-
tion, no wabbling and with every part
making it light and easy on every other
part.
When certain thing Is wanted in
TammaDy every member is made 70
understand it and every member works
70 its accomplishment. Tammany is
not such machine in politics ~ the
ordinary man counts machines. 1t is =
perfect organization, and could not
have 6ourished one hundred years
without being perfect 1t is always full
OF life. full of activity, full OF enthu.-
tasm, and is always victorious on its
own battlefield. Tammany takes no
advantage OF the humblest member oil
its organization.
When Idaho Democrats get together
with the harmony OF TAmmany IN it,
ranks they will be as invincible in the
state Is Tammany is in New York City.
They may not reach che union and har-
mony Of Tammany in this campaign
but there Il better way OF approach
ing 1t than there has been in the past
