Mixing Savage. out of soldiers,

One is forced to believe that the war
department has concerned itself very
little about the crime Of savagery and
a great deal about the sin of being
found out. The only real crime that
could be committed in the Philippines
against its code was crime that re-
suited in publicity Of kind that
might injure the political prospects of
the administration. That has been its
attitude from the outset; not to en-
force discipline among the troops with
hand of steel, but to conceal. cover
up, suppress. And, naturally, the
army has caught the spirit Of the war
department. That was inevitable.

The Fashion In Corsets.

There is only one thing which has
a tendency toward following strictly a
set fashion of the moment and this is
the corset. Women are still elongat-
ing their waists in front and short
ening their backs out o. all proportion.
To go to extremes of this sort is very
foolish, but out Of evil comes this
much good, that never were corsets
less injurious or more hygienic; they

Plaits on Crepe Gowns.

Shingles, deep circular plaits, are
having a certain vogue. 1t is pretty
way of making up a crepe or mousse

in pale yellow, made up in this way,
with the rows of shingles forming the
bodice and entire skirt, has the bottom
of the skirt trimmed with set-in dia-
nonds of ecru lace.

DEPOT
MRS. GABBETT ASKS $780,,
600 DAMAGES, CLAIMING
SHE SOLD PROPERTY FOR
LESS THAN 1T WAS WORTH.

Mrs. Sarah E. Gabbett has today
brought suit for $4,000 damages against
Edwin p. Ansley, real estate dealer, alles-
ing fraud and deceit practiced upon her
I'm the sale of certain property in connec-
ton with the new railroad movements OF
the Southern and Seaboard.
In her petition, filed in the city court
this morning, Mrs. Gabbett says that for
several years Mr.. Ansley has been her
real estate agent. About october l6tn,
she declares Mr.. Ansley sent for her, ana
told her he had an offer of $3.50 for GER
tain property of hers lying at the corner
of Foundry and Mangum streets.
She says she did not want to accept this
sum- as she believed on account OF the
proposed new Southern depot in that VI
entity that the property was worth much
more, but Mr.. Ansley told her 1t mad
been decided to place the new depot else
where, and at such a place that the value
of the property would not be affected.
The property was wanted, so MIR. Ansley
said, according to Mrs. Gabbett's petition,
by one Burnheim, a Texan, to pulld
small renting houses upon.
Mrs Gabbett says she still demurred,
but Mr.. Ansley insisted that the price
was fair one, so that she at last COM
scented to sign the contract of sale, Mr.
Ansley receiving $3.50 as his commission.
n lew udgo ldACAs ave. 4AAAe 0S.S~NNNf
she learned from the local papers that
property was being bought up in that
vicinity for the Seaboard, and that the
depot was to be located very near her
late property, so she sought out Mr.
Ansley again, when she says he assured
her excitedly that the newspaper an
nouncements were premature.
She finally alleges that Mr.. Ansley well
knew her property to be worth much
more than she was induced to sell it for,
that he concealed from her the fact that
other property near hers was being eager
ly acquired; and says she was induced to
sell the. property by fraud and false
statements. She also claims that Mr..
Ansley was really representing certain
parties who were purchasing large tracts
in that neighborhood.
After relation, of all these alleged
facts, Mrs. Gabbett concludes by asking
10000 damages. The suit was filed by
Attorney w. r. Hammond.
Mr.. Ansley declares that he has no
fear as to the result of the suit.

SENATORS WANT TAX
RATE,L0WERED TO 5 MILLS

A resolution was passed by the senate
yesterday that the tax rate for 1903 for all
purposes should not be more than 5 mills.
The original resolution read that the tax
rate for all purposes should not be but
three and a half mills, but the finance
committee changed the resolution.
The upper house favors a reduction OF
taxes. and should the reduction made be
passed BY the house, the rate will be con-
siderably lowered next year. Owing to
the appropriations which have been rec
commended by the appropriation commit
tee, however, it is doubtful whether or
not there Will be enough raised by the
rate put on by the senate to meet all the
appropriations.
