 After a two weeks session, the City Court grand jury for the October term adjourned at 8 o'clock this afternoon, handing in the following report: Hon. O. J. semmes, Judge of the City
 Court of Mobile County:
 "Sir-The grand jury for the October term of the City Court respectfully submit the following report:
 We have examined 430 witnesses in 15S cases, and have found seventy three indictments.
 we visited the county jail. It is neatly kept and in as good condition as such an antiquated building could be.
 '"The committee which visited the asylum for the poor found 1t in good condition and in good order. At pres ent there are twenty eight adult white males and eleven adult white females and there are thirty-flve adult colored males and twenty-three adult colored females in the asylum.
 "The Board of County Commissioners Is requested to investigate a complaint that others, besides those employed on the premises, are fed at the county's expense.
 "The committee appointed to exam inc the bonds of the county officials found them sufficient and the books are neatly kept.
 Complaint Is also made that there Is no overseer for the roads In the northern part of the county.
 owing to the large amount of bus mess before the grand jury, 1t was impossible for us to examine thorough iy into the shortage in the books of the ex-Tax Collector. The reports of the State Examiner and the expert em- ployed by the bonding company were so much at variance that we could not reconcile them. We recommend that the next grand jury take this matter up for investigation. In this connec- tion, we would urgently recommend that the books of all county officials for the past six years be examined by competent expert examiner, regard less of the examinations made by the authority of any other officials. We also recommend that this position be made a permanent one. As to the pay ment for the services of this expert accountant, the grand jury is of the opinion that an agreement could be made with the city officials to spay its proportion, which would lessen the cost to both.
 Having found no indictments against the following persons. now confined in the county jail, we ask that they be released: Joseph Chestang,

A physician. says: If you cannot find pleasure In the study of the many wonders that surround you. if you care not for geology, natural history or astronomy, collect walking sticks. buy and cherish old cracked china, fill up albums and scrapbooiks or even gather together autographs and postage stamps--anything sooner than be idle" The doctor is undoubtedly right, for true recreation requires a thorough change of work and also of thought.

simple. Half a dozen threads of flo
are employed for the satin stitch which
is ingeniously adapted to the render
ing of leaves and flowers; while the
stalks and finer details are worked out
in one or two strands. One advantage
of this work is that no frame is re-
CURED while the patterns may be car
ried out in washing silk upon linen in
tended for table covers, dresser scarfs
and any of the many accessories of this
sort for table and boudoir.
An exceedingly effective example of
this work is the table cover of which a
corner is here illustrated. Its grace
full ribbon-tied festoons of diminutive
blossoms, in tones of rose, soft, faint
blues and yellows with here and there
a touch of purple or orange, are charm
ingly blended with the greens of the
foliage. BY a clever arrangement Of
stitches, the characteristics of the flow
er forms are indicated, especially in
the roses, in which, touched in with
three shades Of rose color, the satin
stitches are worked horizontally and
overlapping one another here and there
indicate the little crumplings Of the
folded petals. A couple of stitches are
all that is necessary to indicate each of
the delicate green leaves in the sprays
of foliage. 1t is this that constitutes
one Of the charms of the work that,
while by no means difficult to carry out,
it affords so much opportunity for light
ness and variety of touch. Edged with
French lace, such cover is especially
adapted fol-, the five. O'Clock tea table

and dainty china. Another design that
may be successfully carried out on fine
white linen shows pink roses incased

: PARASOL FOR DEFENSE.
London Women Of the Upper Tendon
Are Learning Protection
Against Runlans.

For some reason thee has been q
great increase of late in what London
folk call "hooliganism." The riotous
street demonstrations on "Mafeking
night" and in celebration Of the close
Of the Boer war, taught the stream Of
toughs who poured out from. White
chapel into the West end that the re-
nowned London bobby" could not be
everywhere at once, and that with a
ratio of 20 hooligans to one bobby
quite a bit of lawbreaking might be
done in more safety than had been sup
posed.
Since then a number of solitary way
farers have been attacked and robbed,
and two or three haze been murdered
all of which was most disconcerting to
the Independent English woman, who
has taken to going on bicycle rides into
the country by herself, and to walking
about the city streets in the daytime
without the chaperOne who was con-
sfdered so necessary few years ago.
Lady Jeune had her purse wrenched
from her recently by hooligan in the
fashionable Kensington district of Lon
don, and Lady Mary Sackville was
robbed Of her bag and chatelaine not
long ago by a rough who struck her
and decamped. Many other attacks of
the sort have been made on less famous
folk.
In consequence Of this state of affairs
it occurred to young French woman,
rhe wife of the famous French swords
man, Pierre Vigny, to undertake the in
struction of Englishwomen in the art Of
self-defense with parasol or walking
stick according to system devised by
her gallant husband who has devoted
years to its perfection. 1t may best be
described as mixture of the various
different methods of self-defense, prac-
ticed in England, France, Germany and
Japan. Many Of the passes, thrusts and
