is an easy matter to submit to the die
tations of such an artist as Paris is
proving herself to be this season.
Black hats will be much favored
judging from present displays, and of
these the kind / like best are those of
Lamballe shape, with creamy white
under the brim, plated chiffon or
white roses, ETC., and with two black
paradise Plumes, one curving out from
under the brim and the other from
above the brim, one just over the other,
and both drooping over the left side to-
gether. Another within of the black
hat is to sport a white plume-"to
show the white feather" as was re-
marked; and this is note of which
the Parisienne is at all times peculiar
ly fond.
Such quaint turbans are coming
from Paris also. 1 expect they are of
Caroline Reboux's invention. The
real genuine turban shape are some of
these, but often embroidered on the
brim, or. one might say, applied with
aowers; and sometimes these are OF

white.

and foolhardy attempt was made yes

cashier and seeing that he would be
captured, blew his own brains out.
At an hour when business was
slack, and when no one but employees
were in the bank the robber entered
the building, and unobserved made his
way 10 the vault. He covered the
cashier with a pistol and demanded
that he give up the money in his Gus
tody. Upon his refusal the robber
fired, the bullet striking the cashier in
the head and killing him instantly.
other employees made a rush for the
robber, who turned his pistol upon
himself and sent a bullet through his
brain. dying instantly in the bank.
The dead robber had no papers or any
article on his body that would serve
to identify him, other than that he
was an American.

PATRICK MURDER TRIAL
Valet Jones Relates Circumstances Lead.
ing to Death Of Millionaire

New York, Feb. PA very dra-
matte point in the trial OF Lawyer Al
bert T. Patrick for the murder Of the
Texas millionaire, William Marsh
Rice, was reached yesterday after.
noon. Charles f. Jones, the valet.
had been relating the circumstances
leading up to the somewhat sudden
death of Mr.. Rice in September Then
plunging at once into the details, he
held the attention of his audience to
the end of his recital. His story fol-
lows:
In August Patrick grew impatient
Mr.. Rice, though an invalid, was living
too long to suit the lawyers pur-
poses. Patrick said he would come to
the house and kill him himself If ne
cessary. He suggested chloroform,
and Jones said he would get some.
Jones got a two-ounce vial Of 1t by
writing to his brother in Texas.
Jones then branched off into the al
legged plan adopted to weaken the al
ready sick man. This was by giving
him mercury and iron pills. The pills
brought on dc ilitating diarrhoea.
Then unwittirg ely a friend brought
Rice a present Of bananas. OF these
the old man ate nine. The fruit made
him exceedingly i'll, and yet the
weakening doses of mecury were kept
up. William Marsh Rice's sudden
death, declared Jones, was decided at
a conference between Patrick and him
self. Jones had told the lawyer OF
the arrival Of a draft for s25,000
Patrick told him it was time to apply
the chloroform now that the draft
had come and Captain Baker was
coming, or they would lose all.
Jones here told his story of the
actual killing He made a cone OF
q towel, in the small end of which
was a chloroform-soaked sponge
Creeping into the room where Mr.
Rice lay sleeping. he quickly covered
the sleeper's face with the large end
of the cone. Jones rushed out of the
room. In half an hour he came back
He removed the cone. Mr.. Rice was
dead Jones swore he telephoned tC
Patrick the words: "Mr. Rice is very
ILL.," the agreed signal between the
two OF death.

SECRETARY LONG TO RETIRE
Change In Cabinet Will Not Take
Place Before CONGRESS Adlourns.

Change IN cabinet WIN wv any
Place Before Congress AdIourns.
Washington, Feb. 21.-Now that the
Schley matter has been settled Off
cially it is understood that Secretary
Long feels that he is at liberty to
carry out the project cherished by
him in the last year Of President Nc
Kinley's administration to retire 70
private life. However, this is not eX-
pected to ensue at once, for there Is
no certain knowledge Of what may fol-
low in congress, notwithstanding a
strong belief by the administration
that the case is settled beyond revival.
Therefore it is understood that the
change in the cabinet circle will not
take place before the adjournment OF
the present session Of Congress, and
perhaps not until next autumn.
