DRY GOODS FIRM MUST PAY.
Mrs. Mary Smith Wins Her Suit
Against EfrOmysOn a. Wolf.

The Appellate Court yesterday affirmed
the Marion Circuit Court in the case of
Mrs. Mary Smith against ~Efroymson &
Wolf and the latter firm will have to pay
Mrs. Smith $1,000 damages for false impris-
onment. The Imprisonment consisted in
taking hold of her arm and compelling her
to go to an alcove in the rear of the store
and submit to an examination for articles
which might be under her cloak, at the
same time accusing her of stealing a pair
of shoes which she. held in her hand.
1t was said Mrs. Smith was given per-
mission by one of the clerks to take a pair
of shoes from one side of the store over to
a counter TO show them to her daughter.
On her way one of the clerks accosted Mrs.
ticles. The Appellate Court held that her
detention and search clearly amounted TO
false Imprisonment, and said in view of all
the circumstances that the damages were
not excessive.

sure that all of 1.-THE Offal as well as the

TO be used for this work is stated at 5000

may expect TO see more mills set aside for
such grinding as the pressure of Canadian
wheat upon the market increases. Tariff

supremacy as the greatest cash wheat mar

and arbitrate a strike OF about 80 men at

the employment of another man to do the
work for less wages.

A lovely hat of soft pastel blue felt
has transparent insertions of coarse
white Irish crochet lace let into the
brim, with very narrow border OF
mink on either side. Soft twisted
folds of blue chiffon are draped
round the crown and tied loosely to-
taken over the brim and carried
round the crown to form a bandeau,
which rests on the hair and sOftens
the lines of the brim. A lovely white
ostrich feather droops over on to the
hair at the back.
The large toque, somewhat in the
Toreador style, is made of black

new black plush and black ostrich
tips curling over the brim on to the
hair on the left side, but the novelty
of the model consists chiefly in tie
of MORE ribbon, the center of which
is folded and sewn on to the brim at
the back for several inches, the ends
then being tied into cravat bow,
which hangs down on to the hair be-
low the brim, these ends being
fringed out little just like a pretty
tie.
A pretty model in the fashionable
three-cornered shape is made of grey
chenille trimmed with black and
white speckled wings, one pair Of
which point downwards at the back.
while another pair are coquettishly
fixed at the top, this being very
popular way of wearing wings just

land which she is giving away to the
colonists from this country, from
Great Britain, from Ireland, from
Austria, from Germany, from Russia,
from Denmark, from Iceland, from
Sweden, from Norway, and from sew
eral other nations.
Then, too, if we were to include in
this estimate of government land In
Canada all that great portion that
is yet unsurveyed, but which has a
climate that is not unsuited to the
needs of agriculture, and add to this
the remaining government lands in
Ontario, and other more eastern prov
inces, we can easily imagine room
enough not only to support all the
immigration which the Dominion will
attract for many years to come. but
sufficient to permit of the operations
of any number of. American land sy-i-
dicates. The northwest territories
are alone 81 times as large as the
United Kingdom, and this does not
include Manitoba. The population of
these territories at the present time
is not over 100000, but it is growing
at the rate of close to $4,000 annually.

rands-Perigord of to-day are collater-
al. But they are great family in
France, perhaps not the less great in
that the most illustrious of that name
was so closely linked with Waterloo
and st. Helena.
For, on the whole, the American col
ony is on good terms with the most
ancient of French aristocracies, that
of Faubourg, of the names that ante
date the revolution, those that felt the
terror. The American girl who is by
marriage de Sagan moves by right in
this charmed but rather dull circle.
For variety, there is the lively Baron
ess de Sellieres, who was stepdaughter
of John O'Brien, of New York. This
is a spicy title, redolent of piquantly
amusing tales from the boulevards.
And-again an abrupt transition
there is the former Miss Singer, who,
with dollars sewed together into
great fortune by the needle of a
famous sewing machine, gained the
title of Princesse Polignac, which de-
rives anciently from that Poland with
which France for hundred years
maintained such close connection.

planning to me that as the land did
not represent any money investment,
and as it cost them nothing to hold
it, the company could afford to keep
it until such time as the efforts of
the government and the railway had
developed the country to the point
where the land became of even great
er value. The argument probably
represents good business philosophy,
though it sounds selfish, and I'M
doubtedly is SO. One-half of all that
remains, representing the odd-num-
bered sections, are reserved by the
government for railway purposes, it
being agreed that the railways shall
be recompensed for the building of
lines of transportation by the allot-
ment of land grants. -
But, even with these deductions
made, Canada has vast amount of

This does not include the lands set

be open to settlement.

ton of this fact during visit paid
to the immigration department at
Winnipeg. The great shed-like build
ing devoted to the work of this de-
partment was packed with the peo-
pie of virtually all nations at the
time, and among them was a goodly
sprinkling of Americans. Mr.. J. O..
Smith, the immigration commissioner
at Winnipeg, said to me that very
nearly one-half of the home-seekers
going into the western provinces were
from the states, and it was easy to
imagine this from the fact that
though 16 different languages are
spoken by the employees of the de-
partment at Winnipeg, the English
tongue could be heard above the
general jargon that goes on all the
time.
The western portion of Canada, ly-
ing between the eastern boundary of

that it may be quite becoming with
an applique of ivory lace in design

while smaller lace-petalled flowers

trained fullness of the skirt there is
a tucked frill of the silk. So, as the

decorative duty for many long day

is indeed well worth the initial out

the gown of Japanese quilted silk is

The American colony is no longer
exotic; it is self-perpetuating, and how
firmly fixed in the affections of
France!
There was another information
marriage, little earlier than that of
the beautiful Comtesse dAramon.
The unimportant man was Comte

Gabriac, moves on a slightly lower
plane in the same proud, exclusive but
rather dull circle.
There's no denying it: the older cir
cles are dull. They realize it. Some
times they take refuge in impregnable
pride; and more often, they copy the
ways of the lively foreigners if they
can. The money that pours into some
Golfers from magic America makes all
those living the Strengthened life of
aristocratic poverty disconnected.
The cure? Set the son of the poor, but
proud, house in turn to catch 'une
belle Americaine."
Lively enough is the American col
ony sometimes! Imagine Paris when
the senior w. X. Vanderbilt is in town;
when Tom Walsh, of somewhere in
the mining west, is entertaining his
lively boon fellow, the king of the
Belgians; when Mrs. Delamar and Mrs.
George Law and Mrs. Mackay are en-
tertaining; Miss May and her set are
present; and for touch of the comic,
when some Spartacus ]. Best is trying
to ''Parkhurst" the town and make it
moral! Let John Labusquiere, the
only Paris alderman born in America.
PROFOUND at the same time some mirth-
provoking proposition like his famous
bill to tax every printed novel four
cents, and you shall see Paris talking
of the Americans, and of little else;
and not averse to seeing more and
yet more American money coming to
stay.
As-if the dear girls are really bent
upon titles-why should it not?
There are only two countries in Eu-
rope where an American woman may
marry titled husband and share his
place in society. One is England,
| where the wife takes the husbands
rank, because nobody cares who she
was before; the other France, where
all tradition was upheaved by the rev.
olution. Why deny nobility to Nor
| ton, whose American ancestors were
cultured folk when the ancestors of a
d'Abrantes was unable to read? Why.
indeed? Especially when the govern
ment cares nothing for the matter one
way or another?
Wherefore, why not Paris? There
are compensations in democratic and
| Napoleonic dwellings,; and let consis-
tency go with logic where it may!
| The Germans are so beautifully lop-
ical Either person is "highwell-
born,' or she is not; that settles it.
For in the dull Faubourg as in the
lively ones there is one thought as to
Paris. Once live there and you will
find there the world. So, at least, think
