COURT.

Before Judge Gaskill opened the Cour
of Oyer and Terminer on Wednesday b
announced for the benefit of counsel ant
/ for the convenience of the bar, that b
had decided to have the county cour
meet on Fridays instead of Saturdays a
heretofore, and that cases might be gov
erned accordingly. The Judge further
said that the change was not desire OF
his part to be elsewhere on Saturdays, but
simply that numerous requests from law
yers had reached him, in which they
stated that Saturday was always BAG
day to be away from their offices, and
they would greatly appreciate change te
some other day. The Sooy license case
set down for Saturday last will according
ly go over until Friday.
The Judge also said for the benefit OF
constables and officers in the court room,
that he would announce by an advertise
ment published at once, offering a reward
of $500 for the arrest of the parties who
committed the assault which resulted in
the murder of Washington Hunter, at
Riverside.
The first case set down by the Prosecutor
in the criminal court, was then taken up.
It was charge against Charles Kelse, of
Springfield township, for atrocious assault
with intent to kill. Two indictments
were out against Kelse, one for assault on
Elmer Conrad and one for the same offence
on Hester Ann Emmons. Before moving
the Indictment Micajah E. Matlack,
counsel for Kelse, informed the court that
the prisoner desired to retract his plea of
not guilty, and enter one of guilty to the
indictment charging him with assault on
Conrad. The court accepted the plea and
the indictment for assault against Miss
Emmons was abandoned by the state.
Judge Gaskill heard evidence as to the
nature of the weapon Kelse carried at the
time of the assault. He announced that
he would pass sentence later.
Prosecutor Atkinson then moved the
case against Robert H. Farrell, who was
indicted for committing rape on Aman-
da Parker, former resident of Mount
Holly, in Vincentown, in October last
The defence was that no assault had been
and in fact general denial of
the states case Also that Parker was in
debted to the defendant in the sum of 1923
for wages, and that the continual endeav-
ors of Farrell to collect his money had so
Parker that he trumped up this
charge.
The jury returned in short while with
a verdict of not guilty. Charles K. Cham
bers represented Farrell.
At the conclusion of this case Judge
Gaskill announced that owing to the
serious illness of his father he was COM
PEELED to adjourncourt until Monday next.
The case against Edward Deamus and
others for assault on Douglas Durrell, in
Burlington, was postponed until Tuesday
February 10, the court having
adjourned until that date

A Humane Way to Wear Birds.

Birds and butterflies are the most
popular designs for most of the dainty
bits of jewelry that give the cachet
of smartness to elaborate gowns. Per
haps the birds are little more sought
after than the butterflies. Few there
are, indeed, of the feathered tribe that
have escaped imitation.
Even the ungainly body of the young
snipe is set up in tiny rose diamonds
to serve as catch pin about an inch
long. The English pheasant, with long
tail feathers. is a favored and grace
full design in precious stones. Lyre
birds are reserved for the hair, and
behind their spread tails are placed
high, soft aigrettes. These birds are
made both in rhlnestones and in dia-
monds and cost, therefore, upward
from $13 to a kings ransom. Two,
three or five dainty little swallows
crossing on the wing a parallel bar is
not exactly new design, but it now is
certainly having second wave Of
popularity, while small peacocks, al
together new, are among the most
gorgeous of the bird ornaments. When
not made up of stones these are done
in exquisite enamel, each eye of the
magnificent tail being wonderfully
true to life. Ducks are not forgotten
in this reigning passion for birds.
Nearly always, however, they are
made of enamel on either gold or sill
yer, their highly colored necks and
heads cleaning in the light most bril-
liantly. Pouter and fantail pigeons
are among the very attractive and
quaint of the new designs.
With the butterflies also there il
much variety in the style of makeup,
and while the handsomest ones are
cvstly, there are others very pretty
that come within the range of nearly
all. But always it must be remem-
bered that it takes certain type of
woman, light, fower-like looking
creature, to wear well butterfly. A
fetching way to wear any of these
ornaments is as clasps for some of the
numerous chains which arc hung about
the neck.-New York Commercial Ad-
vertiser.

tening at the expense Of the Western
farmer. Certain It is that the cost OF
any fencing is now so considerable
that the amount required should be
reduced to the minimum, and the first
step In doing this is to have the law
changed to compel every one to fence
in his own animals.
OF course, the cry will be raised that
this is oppressive to the poor man, that
1t Is taking away his pasture, etc. We
have found, however, that where the
law has been changed the poor man
has been able to find pasture for his
COW, and she has certainly Jared much
better than before. The roadside very
rarely affords good pasture, and when
to scant and uncertain feed are added
racing by boys, tormenting by dogs
and clubbing by angry owners Of dam
aged gardens or crops, the lot of the
highway cow is not such as to make it
any real charity to her owner to allow
her to be highway cow. 1t is cer-
tainly very expensive charity, and the
quicker 1t is ended the better for the
community.-John NJ. Stahl, in The
Country Gentleman.

Professional Packers.

In these days of trouble saving there
has crept up yet another employment
for women--that of professional pack
ers. The richer members of the com
munity have no wish to be bothered
with packing their own boxes, and it is
by no means every maid that can do
1t efficiently; so in America and Paris
there are certain women who, for q
comfortable fee, will come and pack
your things, choose the boxes most
suitable for them and relieve you of
the burden of anxiety which would
he yours did you feel that, on arrival
at smart house, your lovely silk and
muslin dresses would appear like SO
many crumpled-not rose leaves, oh,
dear no; but dusting rags. London
has also proved the benefit of this new
Industry, and professional packers
who are thoroughly up to their work
can make quite a comfortable income.

as they are that of her mother and
elder sister. This pretty May Mar;on
design is simple and girlish and can
be made snug or left loose as occasion
demands. As shown the material is
pink French flannel with trimming of
narrow black wash ribbon. but Scotch
flannel fiannelette, cashmere and hen
rletta cloth are equally suitable.
The back is plain across the shoul-
ders and drawn down in rows Of gath
ers at the waist line; but the fronts
are gathered at the neck and fall in
becoming folds which can be held in
place by means of ribbon passed
around the waist, or allowed to hang
free as preferred The sleeves are in
bishop style, with narrow pointed
cuffs and the neck is finished with Il
wide round collar that is youthful in
effect and allows freedom to the
throat; but can be made with a stock
TO match the cuffs as shown in the
small sketch. The edge of the collar
and lower edge o. the jacket are seal
loped and give pretty outline, but
the fronts are straight with ornamen-
tai buttons and buttonholes.
TO cut this jacket for a miss of four
teen years OF age three yards OF ma
terial twenty-seven inches wide, two
and five-eight yards thirty-two inches
wide or two yards forty-iour inches
