Gilmcr. Thus reinforced. the levy was made. and the two registers belonging to the business of A. D. Fabrtis & Go. were loaded upon wagon and carted up to the court room of Justice Fuller.
 The levy was made on account of a claim of C. l.. Hertz & Go. for thirty odd dollars Fabritis resisted the attachment proc eedings and muttered something about robbery, but the cash registers were escorted away by the constables, nevertheless.
 Fabritis later went to the Justice and said that the registers did not belong to him and that the attachment had been wrongly made. For fear that a mistake might have been made. the constable went down and made fresh levy on the har- ness and wagon of Fabritis.
 When the second attachment was or dered. Fabritis exclaimed excitedly '"rekka everyting. Tekka de peanutta parcher. Tekka de whola dam ting

COLORADO oVERRULED.
Decision by Supreme Court in Case
 Between States.

Washington. April 1.-The United States Supreme Court, in an opinion delivered by Chief Justice Fuller today overruled the demurrer of the State of Colorado in the case of the State of Kansas vs, The state of Colorado.
 The case involves the right of Colorado to appropriate for purposes or lrrlgatoa the waters of the Arkansas River which Kansas sought bv an original action to restrain on the ground that the stream flows through Kansas and the people ot the latter State are injured by Colorado s appropriation of the water. Coiorfn" contested the Jurisdiction of the Court In the case and filed demurrer
 The Chief Justice said that the case IS one in which the Court can properly as sume jurisdiction. He said also that the action of the Court in overruiing the de- murrer was intended to be without pre- iudice but was taken because the i'm portance of the case Is such that 1t should not be decided without full proof on the questions set up in the allegations of damage made by the State of Kansas.

"Shirty" Shirt Waists are Doomed.

Shirt waists are doomed-that is the "shirtiness" of them is. You will not see the smart girl this summer wearing stiff. striped or checked affair of ging- ham with a stiff collar and equally stiff curls. Instead she will look both cool and dainty in soft. tucked blouses buttoning down the back. These bouses will be made of wash materials. of course-dimi- ties musins and those exquisite French materials which are both sheer and strong. Batiste and pongees will also come in for good share of popularity. The prettiest of these blouses are trim med with wash lace and here and there little touches of embroidery The illus tration sows one of pale blue batiste trimmed in d novel manner with rather wide white lace It has a deep yoke ef- feet given by the horizontal direction of the tucks. Elsewhere the tucks are per pendicular. The sleeves flare out in puffs at the wrist and the fullness begins un- der little strap of the lace. At the base of the collar is the inevitable bow of white tulle which is so popular. The blouse fastens down the back with round pearl buttons.
 Of course you may have your blouse made in q much simpler fashion, but a few tuckS and bit of lace are essential 70 the "Frenchy' effect. Speaking gen orally. the separate waist will only be worn for informal occasions A dress, no matter how simple, is considered much more dreSSy.

The Mormon church as an institu-
ton to be detested and avoided will
no longer be preached by the minis
tiers and laymen of the Methodist
church in Utah. This decision has
been arrived during the executive
session OF the state conference. 1t
was generally expressed as the opin-
ion of the ministers that bitter an
tsgonism as shown by the Protestant
churhes only gains sympathy for the
Mormons and accompishes nothing.
The Methodist church hereafter will
therefore not denounce the Mormon
church from the pulpit, but will at
tempt to make converts by quiet
preaching and friendly missionary
work, ''preaching the gospel and
allowing Mormonism to take care of

Paying twenty million dollars,
recall the sum with pain;
And have slaughtered you industriousl,
From then until today;

Of our kindness thrown away.
For we've killed you most extensively.
With rapid firing guns
Shooting sixty shells a minute,
Using cartridges by tons;
And instead of humbly thanking us,
On prayerful Bonded knees.
You have banged at us with cannon
Fashioned out of trunks Of trees.
And while we've used you fatherly,
And gently shot you down,
And when we lost man or two.
Humanely burnt your town.
While our navy hurled its parabolic
Blessings from above
1t all was unavailing-
For we couldn't in yonr love.

THE GLORY OF THE FLAG.

That is the spirit which makes the
army and navy OF the United States in
vincible; the flag is what the eagles were
to old Romans. Political parties ought
to keep this in.mind for no party in this
country can make Roadway by direct.
ly or indirectly impugning the motives OF
those who carry the flag and are willing
to die under it. -Goodwin's Weekly.
The Judge can always be depend
ed TO speak something to the point
on any strong occasion, and the
above is very pertinent expression
which it would be we'll for. host Of
thoughtless politicians in this coun-
try to consider If they would make
headway-th though In the Signals
mind that class does not desire to
make the sort OF Roadway that is
parallel with humanity and the high
est social welfare of the country
We would like to bring before the
Judge, for more lengthy lecture,
all who impugn the motives of
those who have carried the flag,
fought under it and love it-love it
80 well that they cannot compose
themselves to see it float over any
wrong that can be remedied. 1t
would be well, indeed, if any words
could reach that brood of catiffs and
churls who wrap the flag about mer-
cenery and vicious designs, who,
whenever their acts or policies are
called in question, hold up the stars
and bars and from behind it cry
flag furlers," and denounce, with
hypocricy that would shame the
devil, as desiring to ''pull down the
flag" those who would elevate the
course Of government under the flag
and who would carry the flag away
from any position where it is in
danger of becoming stained or faint
ed with anything less noble than the
splendid design which gave it birth
or the pure national blood which has
fed its ascendency.
