FASHIONS rOIBLES.

II is rumored that the waist line win
be more accentuated as the season ad-
vances.
Walking skirts viii just touch the
ground, and the jackets will be tight
fitting and long.
Whaleboned petdcoats are common
enough. From these to crinolfne proper
is not a Tar cry.
There have been introduced Of late.
from Victorian times, the low shoes that
button over at the sides
A fancy has displayed itself for. canes
and three-quarter coats IN a loud check
tweed.
A lace handkerchief makes an excel
lent jabOt by folding It cornerwise, turn
ing the upper point so as to fall little
above the under one.
BroadtaiI velvet. which is really a
crushed velvet, Is one Of the coming
stuns for outer wraps.
Soft makes OF veIours as well as fancy
chiffon velvets viii be used for dresses.
nantes and millinery.
Tangerine IS one Of the new popular
shades.
OId-fashioned lavender silk, which
brides OF a half century ago. were wont
to reveI in, again comes fashlonably for
ward.
tartan LWetuS are quite Ine latest Tor
autumn tailor-mRdes in blue and green,
brown and yellow, and quiet mixtures.
Fringed bias taffeta ruffies are made
into charming fiat boas for cool even
iugs.
A prevailing autumnal fashion will be
the closely fitting waistcoats. They arc
now shown IN delicately embroidered
muslins and cambrics. As the season
advances silk and brocade will be seen
In conjunction with smart little eutaway
coats.
The tafeta gown IS an Indispensable
change from the muslins and laces of
summer. Everybody has at least one Of
these dresses in her wardrobe.
The owner OF even a bit OF real lace IS
nowadays making the most OF her pos
session, for scarcely any costume IS
seen without some lace decoration.
The revived fashion for mounting
precious stones in an invisible setting
is illustrated by sets OF safety pins,
each incrusted with a different stone ar
ranged In rows.
White, putty color. and pale gray
cloths make the smarter coats; and
white cloth with a faint tfnge OF paIest
blue, known as zinc white, is eXtraOrd-
iuarily fashionable Touches of color are
often admitted In narrow cuffs and re-
yers.

Not Guilty,

A case of assault was tried be-
fore Police Magistrate Warburtnn
Wednesday in which Wolfe, the
proprietor of the lunch counter,
was complaining witness against
several of the young men of Monte
Vista and an old soldier.
After some difficulty in secur-
ing jury, trial was commenced
and an effort made by the prose-
cution to show that assault had
been made on the old gentleman
i'll his place of business last Satur-
day night with intent to kill, A.
stated in the complaint. The
jury was not convinced by the
evidence that any assault had been
made and returned verdict If
mot guilty" after a few minutes
deliberation.
1t was thought that the mini
sters were pushing the case on sc-
count of their manifest interest
but Rev. Lister entered denial
at the trial.
We ARE informed that the city
marshal was witness Of the pro-
ceedings at the restaurant and it
would appear strange that he would
not interfere in case an assault
was taking place and in which 4
mans life was in danger. II seems
to us, further, that If the psacs
were being disturbed the marshal
would have arrested the guilty
ones and taken them before the
magistrate.

Last of "OId Abe. !"

One Of the most valuable war relics
destroyed in the state house fire at
Madison last Friday was the mounted
remains of "Old Abe," the historic
war eagle, who was the mascott of the
9Th Wisconsin volunteers during the
war Of the rebellion. 'Old Abe was a
remarkable bird and always during the
din OF battle lowered over his regiment
uttering shrill screams of defiance at
the enemy. He was never known to fly
from the noise and smoke of the fierc-
est battles. He survived the war and
at the time of his death In the sos was
still a very young bird. He was pur-
chased before the war by an Eau Claire
man from the Chippewa Indians and
at the out break of the conflict was pre-
sented to the Eau Claire company.
The average life of an eagle is said
to be about two hundred and fifty years
and hunters and Indians claim that the
parent birds of cold Abe" are still
alive and nesting on the Flumbeau riv
err, on the same grounds where "Old
Abe" was captured.
