WHITE PoNGEE.

The latest. innovation in the line of
silks is. dead white pongee. The
shade-one might call it thus, for there
is really color to it's trying and I'M
less one has a perfect complexion it
casts dismal blush tint over the al
ready freckled-and- tanned physiog-
nomy of the summer woman.
1t makes up well, however. There are
three lace medallions over the back of
the model under discussion and two in
front, with a rounded yoke of white
lace in the back, which comes down to
the centre of the front with tiny
white silk revers. The rest of the
bodice is in tiny tucks, as are also the
upper part of the sleeves, to a little
below the elbow, from whence comes
a very full undersleeve caught into
cuffs of lace
The skirt is rather plain, fitting
closely over the hips with two wide
bands of lace and equal distance apart,
running around the skirt vertically and
falling quite full and long over the
feet with a sweeping train at the back.

EXPENSES OF CITY
FOR SIX MONTHS
Shown by Report Submitted to the City Council
Yesterday

A statement showing the money paid
out by the city OF Savannah for the
first six months of the year was SUBJ
mitted to the City Council yesterday
afternoon. The report was the usual
quarterly statement, with the amount
of appropriations, disbursements in the
various departments and balances on
hand and amounts overdrawn. In the
majority of instances the expenditures
had been we'll within the appropria-
TONS but in the item of paving streets
the report shows that the appropriation
has been exceeded by over $4,000. This
is explained by the fact that the city
has claims against citizens for a large
amount that will, of course, be col
lected, for paving and these bills when
paid will, it is claimed, put the bal
ance on the other side of the books.
In the items of city lighting, fire de-

PLEASED WITH OUTLOOK.

Waitsburg Times: A. w. Philips
arrived home Monday after a months
absence visiting different points in
Missouri. Mr.. Phillips, who has been
elected manager of the Washington
Ginseng Co., which has its headquar-
tiers here, was east on business con-
nected with the company. He visited
a number of gardens in Missouri as
we'll as this company's garden and
has looked carefully into the cultiva-
ton of this valuable little plant. Mr..
Philips is more than gratified with the
prospects of the Washington Ginseng
Co. and is satisfied that the root can
be successfully grown in this state.
1t is probable that quite a large num-
Der Of plants and seeds will be ship
ped here for experimental purposes.

SCANDAL BREWS IN BOISE.
Woman May Cause the Arrest of an
u. s. Marshal.

Boise, IdahO-There is apparently
big scandal brewing in connection
with the actionof United States Mar
shall Rounds in displacing Mrs. Geo.
E. Spencer, former chief deputy. He
is charged with having violently as
saulted her, causing painful injuries
and nervous shock. 1t is stated she
will have him arrested, and by the
attorney representing her. the allega-
ton is made that Mr.. Rounds has al
ways been very discourteous to her
and has sought for months to secure
authority to appoint someone else
Such authority was received a few
days ago, and Mr. Stobbs was there
upon appointed.
When Mrs. Spencer was notified to
vacate some dispute arose, and, it is
alleged, the marshal thereupon used
force in such a manner as to cOnsti
tute an assault.

LAYIGNE WON OUT
Iwenty-Round Fight Had
Sudden End Last Night
DOUGHERTY WAS OUICLASotD
Effort Being Made Today to Macn
Laviane With Will Tracy, a
Clever Lightweight.
DOUGHtRTY WAS OUTCLASStD

The 2O-round fight between James
Lavigne and Jack Dougherty at the
WalIa Walla theater last night did not
terminate as nearly hundred specta
tors would have liked. Dougherty
made a poor showing against his heaV
Ter opponent and his main forte seem
ed to lie in clinching to avoid the
lightning uppercuts Lavigne persisted
In sending his way.
The men fought under Marquis OF
Queensbury rules with provision
that one arm was to be free in the
clinches. The result was that Referee
Burns was powerless to separate the
men and the infighting was something
fierce at times.
Dougherty took the count in the
second round after a fierce exchange
In which both men Topped around
nm the floor and went down and out IN
the fourth after lively mix-up in the
fourth round. Dougherty was quite
badly punished, though neither man
showed much the worse for the scrim-
mage. Kid Ross and Patallo failed
to show up for the preliminary and
this event failed to materialize.
An effort is being made today to
match Lavigne against Will Tracy, a
likely lightweight with the Ferris
wheel company Layigne called at
the Statesman office this morning and
issued a challenge to fight any welter-
weight in the state for a purse AMI a
side bet, barring no one. Layigne is
a cousin of kid" Lavigne, the Sagi-
nav Mich. lightweight. who held the
championship for a number of years.
Lavigne is a welterweight, fighting at
142 pounds.

the dead mans father and brother,
an investigation was ordered made,
the body being eXhumed Monday and
the vital organs being removed They
are being analysed by a chemist to
determine whether Falk died of poi
soning. Falk's widow was arrested
yesterday in Labelle, Mo-, and both
mother and daughter will be tried
soon before the district court.

MURDER MAY BE CHARGED.
Trial of TurnboW's AssaiIant Is Post
poned. w..

Colfax, Wash.-J. E. Brown, charg-
ed with assault with intent to commit
murder, has withdrawn his applica-
ton for change of venue from Whit
man county in the superior court and
asked the court to vacate the order
fixing November 18th as the date of
the trial. J. T Brown, attorney for
the prisoner, stated that the defend
ant is likely to be called upon to
stand trial for a graver offense and is
willing to await results. Prosecuting
Attorney Hanna interposed no OBJ
jeCtions and the order was vacated.
1t is understood from talk of Attor-
ney Brown that the defense expects
TurnbOw to die, in which event
Brown who shot him, would be charg
ed with murder. The request to post
pOne trial is thought to be to wait re-
suits Of Turnbow's wounds.
