chicken theft Charles Rinck was shot
and killed by Daniel Peters Within ten
minutes after the shooting a large crowd
gathered at Peters home and threaten
ed to lynch him, but the timely arrival
OF patrol wagon with policemen pre-
vented any more violence. The cause OF
the quarrel was the theft Of fifteen
chickens from Rinck's hen roost. -Four
OF the missing hens were, it is claimed,
found in Peters chicken coop. Rinck,
accompanied by his 4-year-old daughter
went out to get a warrant for Peters
arrest, When near Peters house he met
Peters and accused him Of stealing the
chickens. Witnesses say Peters drew
his revolver and fired four shots al
Rinck, all taking effect While the fatal
shots were being fired, Rinck's baby girl
ciasped her fathers knees, too Brighten
ed to move. Her clothing was dyed
crimson with the life-blood OF her faith

When the PRINCESS GOWN made its bow
here few weeks ago it took our breath awav.
The lines were trying-too trying for any but
tall women.
Since then it has been worked with and re-
made and SO beautted that you who saw it first,
Will scarcely recognize in the soft graceful flow
ing beauty of this, the stern lines of that.

All last week women crowded our Dress
Making Department where it, and other beau
tlfu dresses. are being made.
There are some wonderful new embroidered
Swiss dress patterns in evening shades which
came to US on the last steamer. When YOU see
their delicate workmanship, you will not be able
to help falling in love with their sweet, artistic
quaintness.
Then there's that new Straight Front"
Corset--but we told you all about that lat
week. Perhaps you've noticed though, that it
has forced the price of the old fashioned out-of-
date corset down to 50 cts Pretty good sign as
to what's going to become of the old corset, isn't

for the engine-house and Plummer
threw a L:-ick at me and Creelman ran
up and grabbed me by the arms. 1 did
not think the brick was thrown at me
until it hit me on the hand. Then l
stuck the knife out easy and heard MS
