White Linen and Lace.

Gowns of coarse white linen, much
trimmed with heavy laces, are to be
worn even more than during the last
hot season.
Some of these are fashioned on
quite elaborate models, as, for in
stance, one which has a Directoire
coat entirely of neavy white lace, with
small hip panels of the linen overlap
ping the lace The skirt is long and
sweepingly graceful, for this is in
tended for a dressy gown, and bands
of the lace are run up and down it.
The new buttonhOle embroideries
and the button laces, whereon dangle
countless little crocheted balls, are
extremely effective on these coarse
white linens.

Her bridal Outfit.

Silk muslin, crepe de chine, or one
of the newer weayes, liberty or
duchesse satin, taffeta, or peau de
cygne, is an excellent choice for the
wedding dress. If OF a thin fabric
nothing could be more charming than
the new (old) 1880 skirt gathered at
the belt and having graduated tucks,
interspersed with bands of tilmy lace
running around the foot of the skirt
to just above the knees. A full blouse.
wide girdle, deep yoke, and bertha of
lace and immense tucked sleeves with
lingeries undersleeves of lace com
plete the costume.
A modish travelling costume is of
mixed tweed, the coat in sort or three
quarters length, and with a jaunty
skirt just clearing the ground.

Worn When Away.

The selection of travelling gowns is
frequently found TO be difficult mat
ter, for they must be becoming, and
above all things practical and useful.
One worthy OF attention was carried
out in reseda green cloth, its dominant
note in all particulars being simple
ity. The neat little coat was cut
double-breasted and prettily strapped
and embellished with touch OF fine
silver embroidery. This, when worn
open, displayed a daintily tucked lawn
shirt with linen collar and dark green
velvet tie, both being feminine IN
style, yet of irreproachable neatness.
The skirt was gracefully plated and
cut walking length, and designed to
wear with this costume was warm
green cloth wrap and pretty felt hat
trimmed with ivy leaves and berries.

A Suuuestive Stole.

a stole which is full of suggestions
IS made OF plain Brussels net, with
flowers or leaves cut out of cloth and
seWed on to the net foundation. Tinted
flowers would be pretty for the woman
with time and taste, and velvet could
be used instead Of the cloth. An en-
TIRE gown OF such work would not be
too great an undertaking, and would
be very handsome.

Fruit Complexion Beautifier.

There is no better cosmetic for the
skin and no better complexion beauti-
fer than a large, juicy apple eaten at
night. Some will find perhaps that
the skin of the apple gives them indi-
gestion, SO it is better to peel it. Next
to the apple as blood purifier is the
cranberry; it is most wholesome.
Oranges eaten in the morning are
very beneficial.

Pretty Curtains for Set of Shelves.
One of the prettiest curtains seen
for a set of shelves was of brown bur
lap with trimmings of red. The cur
tain was thrown over the brass rod in
such way as to form deep lambre-
ouin at the top. The burlap was lined
throughout with red. Red felt was
used for the border. The top and bot
tom was feather stitched to the bur
lap with red worsted in clusters of
six quite long stitches, the middle
one longest, and the others graduated
toward each end. The clusters of
stitches were about an inch apart.

cum. He said French told him
that he (Adams) knew about the
French Eversole feud in Perry
county, and that he (French) was
''man-eater." Adams said the
suit of clothes he had on came from
Hargis' store, and that French had
promised him $50 more, but said
"Bribe or no bride, you will have to
testify for us"
Adams also said that while he
was in Cynthiana, Callahan came
to him and told him that if he tried
to run away he and his family
would be killed. 2 He then asked
the jury to have mercy on him for
his family's sake. He said his
character was above reproach be-
fore he got into the hands of the
band of assassins which ruled
Breathitt county, but that he was
willing to go to the penitentiary
and pay the penalty for his wrong
doing, but pleaded for light SEN
tence.
Judge j. j. Osborne, presiding
Judge at the Jett- White trial, vol
UNFAIRLY addressed the jury in be-
half of Adams. County Attorney
Webster addressed the jury, saying,
in part, that the State would be
better off with Hargis and Callahan
in the penitentiary than by sending
Adams there. The jury returned a
verdict of one year in the peniten-
tiary, the least sentence. AS Judge
L. 2. Fryer, the presiding Judge,
was Commonwealth's Attorney dur
ing the Jett and White trial and
assisted in bringing indictments
against Adams, he vacated the
bench, and Judge Lucius Desha, of
KY, tried the case.

Bowling did not appear, his bond of

70 Grew Broom Germ Instead Of
Tobacco.

frhe low prices of tobacco and the
prospect that they will never be any
better as long as it is raised 80
largely in this section are begin
ming to cause the farmers to turn
their attention to something else.
Already there have been inquiries
into other means of making money
on the farms, and the chances are
that the acreage of tobacco will be
very much smaller this year than it
has ever been.
A new crop to which the atten-
tion of the farmers is being attract
ed ia broom corn. The establish
ment of broom factory in Louis
vile has opened market for broom
corn, and a number of farmers have
made inquiries regarding it. 1t is
learned that the factory can con-
sumo all that can be raised in this
section, and that it brings five and
six cents a pound delivered, a fig
ure which will pay much better
than tobacco.-Owensboro Inquirer

BRIBERY
And Threats Forced Him to
Swear Falsely.
Admits He Perjured Himself in the
Jett-White Trial.
lCourier-Journal, Feb. "a. /

At Cynthiana, KY, Feb. %, SEN
sational testimony in connection
with the Jett and White trial was
brought out in the A. G. Adams
trial for perjury. In the Jett and
White trial at the special term of
court at Cynthiana last August,
Adams testified that he rode from
home, nine miles, to Jackson, and
had just hitched his horse On Jail
street when he heard the shots that
killed Marcum, saying he saw Curt
Jett at Hargis' store at the time of
the shooting.
The grand jury which met two
weeks after the testimony was given
indicted Adams for false swearing.
His trial was set for the Esd, and
after the jury was impaneled Mr..
j. l. Blanton, his attorney, entered
a plea of guilty" and asked that
the defendant be allowed to address
the jury, which was granted.

ADAMS STATEMENT.

Please your honor and gentlemen
of the jury, l come before you as
man to man and plead guilty to the
charge of false swearing; and did
that because l believed that nv
life and the life of my wife and
children was at stake, and just
what you or any other man would
do under the same circumstances.
l come before you, gentlemen, this
evening with my character un-
stained. Iwant to say / have done
what / have done because / was in
the hands of the murderers of
Breathitt county. Men who had
not only conspired and had James
Marcum murdered, but who had
killed several men besides, and they
came to me where l was teaching
about ten o'clock in the night and
told me that they had sent after
me and intended TO have me dead
or alive. They said Jett had killed
Marcum, and that be had done this
through the influence of Callahan
and others, and now they wanted
me as a good man, as a man that
had lived right, and had e good
reputation, to go down to Cynthi

ADAMS BREAKS DOWN.

Adams arose to address the jury,
but broke down and wept before he
had spoken one minute.
He said George Bowling came to
him and said Curt Jett had killed
Marcum for Callahan and Hargis,
and that he would have to testify
for him. He said he refused, and
Bowling and Sheriff Ed Callahan
came to him again with letter
from B. F. French, who was attor
ney for Jett and White in their
case, and told him if he did not
testify that he would go like Mar
