One OF La Junta's leading demo-

Apparently everybody was for

Nine Mile and Newdsle.
The Mayor OF Newdale was in

make some satisfactory excuse for
the fact that his precinct has de-

Service Of 1.s53 Pieces Made I'm Eng
land 30 Cost About 100000.
The magnificent china service for the
White House which is being designed
at the Wedgwood potteries at Stoke.
England, Will arrive some time in De
cember, says a Washington special to
the New York World. The design and
pattern are Of Mrs. Roosevelt's selec-
ton. The president and Mrs. Roose-
welt commissioned Charles M. Van
Heusen of Albany to visit all the ia
nous china manufacturers and place
the contract. This china will be the
first service Of English manufacture
to be used at the White House. The
famous $4,000 service purchased by
Mrs. Hayes was from the Haviland
firm of France.
The new service is plain white, with
gold border, with the great seal of
the United States in colors on each
piece. The shapes are colonial This is
the first time that the arms of the
United States have been used for the
decoration of White House tableware.
The design and shapes have been copy
righted and may not be duplicated ex-
cept by permission of the president.
The set consists OF 1856 pieces.
There are fifteen dozen dinner plates,
ten dozen breakfast plates, ten dozen
tea plates, five dozen bread and butter
plates, ten dozen soup plates, eight
dozen after dinner cups and saucers,
ten dozen oyster plates, ten dozen fish
plates and twenty-four platters.
Mrs. Roosevelt has been much an
noyed by exaggerated statements con-
corning the cost of this service. 1t is
stated that the china win cost less than
$4,000. Thirty thousand dollars was
allowed for the purchase of china, sill
YER and glassware for the repletion Of
the White House closets.
The new glassware will consist Of
LA pieces of the finest cut crystal
Each piece will bear the great seal
Tiffany is now engaged i'll designing
about 500 pieces of colonial silver
which will complete the presidential
dinner service. The old silver was III
much better condition than the china.
and the new pieces consist mostly Of
oyster and other odd forks, which have
recently become requisite for a well
appointed table.
Last winter Mrs. Roosevelt renewed
the White House napery with the
daintiest creations to be found in tie
! Philippines and Porto Rico.

.Kenosha, Wis, Nov. 22.-A pis
toll duel, the result of mistaken
identity, was INDUCED in by Nor
NAL L. Baker, superintendent t
of the schools of Kenosha, and
William Bergland, an employee of
the Rambler automobile factory.
Although three shots were fred
by each. Bergland escaped un-
hurt and Baker suffered a pow
der burned face.
Bergland was in a posse who
was chasing a man who, it was
thought, had assaulted Ellen Son
eral. Baker was also assisting
in his capture. The Halter was
standing in his dooryard when
the fusilade sbegan. He had
seen Scully run past his window
and had gone out to attempt to
intercept him. Bergland
wheeled round the corner of the
house, and, seeing Baker, opened
fire. When the first shot was
fred Bergland was within a few
feet of Baker and 1.-THE . ball
whizzed past the superinten-
dents ear, while Gthe lpowder
burned into the side of his face,
leaving a blackImark. BergIand
dashed to one side and 0Baker,
pulling his revolver, returned the
fire. Three shots were fred in
rapid succession, Baker taking
deliberate aim and Bergland re-
turning the fire as he ran.
AS soon as the men learned Of
their mistake both joined in the
further search for Scully.
William Scully, who had
started to take Miss Ellen Son
eral home from skating rink,
admitted in court that he had
made afectionate approaches to
the young woman, and she testi-
fed that this was the extent of
the assault. He was found in a
barn where he had been hiding.
Scully pleaded guilty to a charge
of assault and battery and paid a
fine of $40 and costs.
