JASPER POLITICS.
Municipal Contest Promises to Grow
 Warmer-A Pretty Marriage.

Jasper August S0.-(speciai. )-Jasper is in the throes of a municipal contest which promises to grow warmer until the day of election, which has been set for the sth of September. Some time ago citizens meeting was called, and a full ticket for Mayor and five Alder men was named. the present Mayor, G. H. Cutlery heading the ticket. and Messns Jack Moore, " N. White, Tom Long, W. c. Stanley and D. II. Samak being chosen as candidates for Alder men. At the time this ticket was put in the field there were only a few dis senting votes. but it seems there was some objection to part of the ticket, and as a consequence a sentiment against 1t was aroused. This resulted in the call ing of a primary which was attended by a good many citizens, a number of whom had participated in the first meeting. A ticket was put out with W. G. Davis for Mayor and Messrs. T. J. Amiss, A. s. Preston, J. D. McDonald A. M. Stovall and J. B. Hughes for Aldermen. Both sides feel confident of victory, and as the date of the election approaches, inter est waxes warm.
 Two brick buildings and several frame residences are in course of construction in Jasper. The foundation for the new $15,000 school building is almost com- pleted. When this building Is finished, it will be one of the most beautiful struc- lures in the city. The specifications call for ten rooms. including the auditorium on the second floor. This will have a seating capacity of from five to seven hundred. The building will be heated with hot air furnished from four large l furnaces, and these are so arranged that any part of the house can be heated at will. School will open some time in October in the old school building, and 1t is expected that the new house will be ready for occupancy by the first of next year.

INTENSELY DRAMATIC SCENE.
The ExcOmmunicatedP Priest, Father Crowley, Defies the Author
 ity of the Bishop.

Chicago, Nov. 3.--There was an in- tenseiy dramatic scene in Holy Name Cathedral to-day, when, in the pres ence of fully one thousand parishicn- CTS, eJremiah J. Crowley, the excom~ municated Roman Catholic priest, was publicly humiliated by order ot the authorities of the church.
 Father Crowley had entered the church unobserved, passing up the center aisle, and had taken a seat all most under the pulpit. Solemn high mass was being celebrated at the time. When the presence of Father Crowley became known, Rev. Francis J. Bar ny. chancellor of the archdiocese of Chicago, was hurriedly sent for. Upon entering the cathedral he went straight to the seat where the excom- municated clergyman was Lneeling and ordered him to leave the church. Father Crowley refused to go, say. ing:
 Put me out if you dare."
 The strain was intense, and one woman tainted. There was no resort y signalled to man in the choir loft, and the sound of the organ ceased and the singing of the choir was hushed
 The priests in the altar stopped the solemn service at the end of the "Gloria" and walked to the benches and laid aside their golden vest ments. The altar boys marched out of the. sanctuary through a side door, and the priests, clad in their cassocks, followed. The next moment the hun. dreds of incandescent lights in the vaulted arches were eXtinguished and the candle lights on the altar were put out.
 The strain was broken when Cham cellor Barry appeared in the pulpit and said:
 Owing to the presence in this sa- cred edifce of an ted priest the solemn high mass has been suspended. We will proceed with a low mass"
 No sermon was delivered however, and the mass was at an end before the congregation was calm again. The parishioners fingered around the ca thedral and watched the deposed priest as he hurried away None spoke to him.
 In a statement issued last night Fa> ther Crowley insisted that it had been his desire to avoid involving any of his brother priests in contesting the order depriving him of the priv ilege of worshipping in Catholic churches, and that, accordingly, he had attended the church of Arch bishop Feehan's own parish, which is the cathedral He announced that he should continue to attend the serv- ices of the Roman Catholic church

MINISTER WU'S RECALL.
Not Yet Received, But May Arrivt at Any Time-WiH Return to
 China When Relieved.

Washington, Nov. 4.-Mr. Wu, the Chinese minister, returned to the city, last night, from his trip to Ann Arbor, Mich., where he went to deliv- CT an address to the students. Re plying to questions on the subject, MT. Wu said he had not received any notice of his recall to China, d step which a Picking dispatch of Saturdays s date said had been determined upon, nor had he received any intimation that he would be asked to return. As he has therefore expressed himself, the minister would not be surprised in the least if such action were con- templated by his government, as he now has served on the mission here for more than year longer than the customary time allowed by the for eign office at any one place, viz., three years. He is simply holding over now, and his recall and the appoint ment of successor would be simply in line with esta ablished practice.
 Mir. Wu's tenure has been very sat isfactory to the administration and it is understood that it was through representations of the officials here, conveyed to the Chinese government, that it was continued.
 When asked whether he would re- turn to China if he were recalled, MT. Wu replied with the following:
 Why shouldn't l? All my interests are there.'

Nearly year has elapsed since the money-lenders' act came into opera tion-or, to speak by the card, was intended to come into operation. That it has failed, and failed egiously, to fulfill the purposes for which it was passed can no longer be doubted. In practice the act neither prevents de- ception on the part of the usurer nor rescues his victim 'from oppression. And where Shylock has been himself unable to slip through the meshes of the net that was drawn around him. the authorities charged with the ad- ministration of the act have kindly cut a hole for his escape.-London Truth.

FEMININE EMERY.
Some of the New Fri m m gs for Early Winter Costumes-The Latest
 in Hats.

Navy blue is used more than it has been recently, and a soft yet bright red with tints of yellow in it is att tractive.
 New trimmings are many. Irish lace is stylishly acceptable for any and every place where it can pos sibly be used, not only on gowns, but hats and fur garments as we'll.
 Silk escurial lace is another revival and appears as dress trimming in the colors of the materials upon on tan and brown, and the latter is very fashionable from pale biscuit to dark brown, says a fashion author ity.
 A new and handsome trimming employed chiefly for evening gowns consists of pompadour wreaths of roses. Then those who like spangles may indulge their fancy to the ex- tent of wearing spangled hosiery and gloves, for novelties in this line have made their appearance, and there are almost countless more sensible ways of using them.
 Two-toned colors appear in novelty ribbons, sage green on one side and turquoise on the other, representing one combination. black and red an- other. To the polka dot and coin velvet ribbons have now been added a two-toned variety, the satin lining being in lighter tint than the velvet. c nd h. bons are also used very extensively.
 Pretty shirt waists in shepherds plaid are seen with silk collar and cuffs, and there are very dainty ef- fleets in gray and white, gray and black and red and white. Shirt waists of handsome striped Louisine silk are also seen, and usually show the delicate colors, such as pink and green, pale blue, green and white. or red, white and blue. They are made perfectly plain, with few gathers at the neck in front, and fasten with hooks and eyes.
 Taffeta and velvet will be used for many of the new long coats this winter, and will be made warm by lambs wool inter1ining. Black and the dark, rich shades of red, blue and green will be the colors em- ployed. A handsome taffeta cloak seen recently was of the deep ruddy tint that was once called wine color, with kimono collar and cuffs of black satin.
 Mary of the gowns by fashionable dressmakers have waists that open in the back and are perfectly straight in front, with a point. The skirt in many instances is put on the belt, with the back fullness confined in small box plaits flowing away from the waist. Art nouveau embroidery is frequently used and chenille also in delicate tints is applied in en- bordered designs.
 The popular tailored hat is charm ing for all ordinary wear. and is generally made of camel's-hair felt, draped over a wire frame, and is flat and broad in effect The hat is seldom worn just as made, for the wearer bends it to suit her particu- lar type of face and style of hair dressing. Bending does not hurt it in the least. It is made with that in view. Velvet> is much used for binding these hats, as we'll as for looms and hovvS
