COLUMBIA'S TRAGEDY.
Gonzales Making a Plucky
 Fight For Life.
PHYSICIANS HOLD OUT LITTLE HOPE
Prayers In Schools and Senate For
 the Editors Recovery-TilIman,
 . Who Fired the Shot, Takes -- Things Calmly. I.

COLUMBIA, $. C., Jan. 17.-At last accounts Editor Gonzales was holding his own, but the doctors hold out little hope of his recovery from the bullet wound inflicted by Lieutenant Govern or TAllman.
 The best doctors in this part of the state are doing all they can to save his life. At the same time MT. Gonza- les is making q plucky fight for his life. AS he has a strong constitution, excel lent habits and a resolute will it is thought there is chance he may pull through notwithstanding his critical condition and the very serious nature of the wound. His condition and the details of the tragedy are almost the only topics of conversation in South Carolina. Telegrams have come from all parts of the state and from many places beyond its borders expressing sympathy and asking for the latest news as to his condition.
 All day long sympathetic crowds gathered around the bulletin board on Main street. and expressed ardent hopes for the recovery of the stricken man. All the information obtainable was the bulletins of the physician post ed on the boards. No one, not even members of his family, was permitted to see the patient.
 When the city schools assembled and prayers were said, they included an appeal to God for the recovery of MT. Gonzales. At the South Carolina college prayers were offered for the re- covery of the stricken editor, and even in the senate chamber, where Lieuten- ant Governor Tillman had presided shortly before the shooting, the chap lain prayed that the Almighty would save the life of MT. Gonzales.
 Lieutenant Governor James H. Till man, who had done the shooting, took things quietly and calmly during the day in the county jail, where he had a comfortable room on the second floor. He had some new furniture brought to his place of confinement and made himself comfortable.
 Some visitors called on him, but most of the day he spent in consulta- tion with his lawyers Congressman George W. Croft, former Judge c. w. Buchanan and MT. Coleman l.. Blease.

NEW YORK LEGISLATURE.

BilI to Fine Users of Portraits For

 ALBANY, N. Y., Jan. 17.-Under the provisions of a measure introduced by Senator Fitzgerald fine of $500 or painting or posting on billboards as an advertisement the photograph of person without his or her consent. It also restricts the size and character of posters. .
 The measure declares that no adver- Using license shall be issued unless there shall first be paid a fee of not less than $2,5oO in cities of the first class, $1,OOO in cities of the second class and $500 in any other incorporat, ed town or village of any subdivision of the state.
 { Immediately upon the posting or painting of any advertisement upon any wall or structure in the state of New York the person or firm posting the same shall pay to the financial off, cer of the place where the sign is post ed the sum of cents for every square foot of space used for the purpose of such sign. One-half of this goes to the state of New York
 It shall also be unlawful to erect in cities of the first and second class to be used for advertising purposes any fence more than six feet in height or any sign upon any roof more than two feet in height or to paint upon any wall any sign containing more than fifty square feet in area.
 tinSfQrc who Yr001a inn that they can successfully forecast the result of contests of skill, speed, power and endurance by man or beast are hit hard in a bill introduced by Assembly man Ulrich. <
 The bill amends section 351 of the penal code by substituting new sec tion, which prohibits the printing, writ ing or circulation of information fore telling the result of the contests men, toned.
 Predictions in newspapers inserted as news and not as advertisements are not included in the prohibition.
 Golf and amateur baseball and foot ball games where no admission is charged will not be Sabbath breaking, so far as the law is concerned, if a bill introduced by Assemblyman Nc Inerney becomes law.
 The bill leaves in the prohibited class shooting, hunting, fishing, playing, horse racing, gaming or other public sports, exercises or shows on Sunday and all noise disturbing the peace of the day"

"NOTRE DAME. :"

Lovers of high class dramatics have been looking most eagerly for some attraction to attend, and they have welcomed the announcement of Ber- tha Ganand's appearance in "Notre Dame'' next Friday evening at Polls. Miss Galfand has been prime favor ite in Waterbury since her appearance here two years ago with James K. Hackett in ''The Pride of Jennico," and there has been a lively desire to see her in her capacity as a star. She plays the role of a gypsy maid in 'Notre Dame,' and she has one of the strong est supporting companies carried by any star on the road.

THE ART OF DRESSING.
A Few of the Fine Features Thaa Are Noticeable in the Lat-
 est Cos tumeS.

We have learned the art of dress. ing richly without looking clumsy and ponderous. We brought all that was beautiful in our last summers dresses into our winter styles, and we now mean to carry all that is SC ductive in our winter apparel into our spring and summer garments.
 Skirts present an endless variety, They are tucked, yoked, box-plaited, kilted and very much founced. They have fans of contrasting material let in at the hem and one or two double box-plaits at the back. In short all manner of skirts are worn, provided always they are full and faring about the feet, for it is ik this direc- tion they are developing, says Ameri. can Queen.
 Tailored skirts are often seen but. toned down the front, at the sides or at the back. Skirts for outdoor wear are ankle length and usually have < the seams ornamented with stitched bands of silk or velvet, while those for visiting and evening wear. are made with trains and have the lower portion trimmed with crosswise folds of materials quite narrow or very wide, just as the wearer may prefer. Tassels, medallions of lace, perforated cloth trimmings, fur and embroidery, in which chenille, silk. and even leather are curiously mingled, compose some of the dress adornments on the newest models.
 Buttons also play an important part in our dresses. Tiny gold but. tons or flat pass emeterie ones deco. rate our sleeves from shoulder to wrist. Tiny buttons, in sets of three, fasten the straps on our bodices and skirts.
 The bell-shaped sleeve is the favor. 1te shape for general use.
 Elaborate twists of braid form a pretty finish to folded stocks of silk on cloth or tweed gowns and a pleas. ing note of contrasting color can al. ways be struck in this way She is a wise woman who pays great atten- t1on to her neckgear and considers it of equal importance with her hats. Here, again, fashion has made sever. al alterations. She now decrees that our dressy hats should be worn of the face.
 Hats generally are very sparing1y trimmed; in fact, the less decoration hat boasts at the present moment the more stylish is the effect; but do not imagine that this is easily arrived at. A bold outline in headgear can only be achieved by the master hand, and this must be put on with the greatest care.
 Bodices are short and tight at the back, but still show pouch in front over tight swathed bands, some oi which are wider than ever.
 Green still continues a popular shade for day wear-a pretty and very dark myrtle green. It is not universally becoming, except to fai, people.
 There is no doubt that smart dresses for the spring will show a tremendous number of fiounces. Ii these fiounces are properly gradual ed they add a great deal to ones i'm l Portance. It is in the graduat ton however, that success or failure of { f1ounced skirt lies. An inch too short | or too long in the front will ruin the whole effect and cut the figure in the most disastrous fashion, whereas the skillful adjustment of the same vii l add length and grace to the wearer
