FOUR PERRY BROTHERS
Under Arrest and Will Have
To Give An Account of How
and Where They Became
Possessed of Certain Beef.

Another new and rather sensational
development in the cattle troubles of
the Plateau country took place yester-
day and as result the four Perry
brothers, Asa B.. George. Ben and
Warren are confined in the county
Jail under suspicion of having com.
mitted very serious ofTanse.
A few days ago ] +. Brink, who,
in his own and for others protection
in the Plateau visited the home and
ranch of these Perry boys. On the
premises were found the caroasses of
two or more cattle. The officer ask
ed to see the hides taken from these
beeves. The boys replied that the
hides had been sold to the Bowman
Bros, the wholesale butchers of
this city. The officers made no fur
Their Investigation.
Under the laws Of the state of Col.
orado it is required that when beef
is butchered, the hide must be kept
and exhibited for twenty days after
the butchering and must be shown to
any person who demands to see it.
Evidently this thing the Perry Bros.
had failed to do.
When the officer returned to Grand
Junction inquiry was made at Bow
man Bros. establishment and these
gentlemen stated positively that no
hides had been sold them by the Per-
ry Bros. The officers were sent to
the Plateau Valley yesterday and the
Perry boys were placed under arrest
and brought to this city last night
aud confined in the county Jail
1t is said that the evidence against
the brothers is very strong indeed.
The Perry brothers have beea be-
fore the eye of the county for quite
while. At the last term of the dis.
trict court they were found not
guilty by jury on a charge of steal
ing and branding cattle. The case
had been in the court for moro than
a year and had been tried twice. Last
the trial consumed several days
much testimony was given ON 10th !
sides. the case was hard fought. but
The result was hung jury. The boys |
wee accused of taking ana rebrand-
ing calf belonging to J. p. Utter
The case attracted much |
attention on each trial.
The Perrys have owned and operat-
Sd ranch near Mesa from several
years. 1t is said they have never
been popular in the community in
which they reside.
1t is very probable that charges
other than those now preferred will
pc made against the Perrys.
The bond OF the Perry brothers was
liked at $500 each by Judge Sullivan,
Of the county court. this morning
Efforts were being made this after
noon by the young men to furnish
pail and secure their liberty.
The Perry boys claim the whole
natter is conspiracy on the part of
Interested parties to drive them from
he Plateau country. They claim not
% be in the least worried about the
natter. They also say they Will be
sble to prove their innocense in the
natter Notwithstanding things look
'ather bad against them at the present
lime. ]. F Brink was working in
behalf of the sheriff's offics when the
arrests were made.

The Savannah morning news., 1904-12-18
BY Katherine Anderson.

The Christmas gift of to-day shows
an odd co-mingling of the old holiday
spirit and the newer practical ideas.
A gift which saves the recipient mon
ey laid aside for frocks is far more
welcome than piece of jewelry quite
out of proportion to the woman's style
of dressing, or trumpery bit of brio
brac for an already crowded room.
To make practical gift doubly well
come one has only to select an arti-
Gle of wearing apparel which is truly
festive-to know just where to draw
the line between a too, too practical
gift and something which carries only
holiday suggestions.
The rich old aunt in search of some
thing for her niece whose dress allow
ance is small or who is perhaps living
on the average salary of an office en-
ploye, can select no more desirable
gift than a dainty blouse. The puzzled
bachelor uncle will do well to call in
some experienced shopper to aid him
in the selection of a similar gift, and
as a college girl can never have too
many extra bodices, any number of
her family may feel justified in choos-
ing this gift. AS for the mother-the
busy, practical mother-a blouse that
is just little out of the ordinary, with
some touch of extravaganza such as
she would Danish from her mind when

lin-is put on like some of the old
undersleeves worn in the days when
ball gallants sported rosebud satin
vests ana tucked lawn shirts. Tiny
artificial flowers. stiff little velvet
bows and rosettes of different sorts
add to their charms.
Bodies NnriOusly Trimmed.
The bodices are variously trimmed,
but all are on the babyish gathered
order, with high corset girdles and
some species of fiat trimming about
the round decolletage. Here and there
a little bertha fall is seen, but it is
generally made of the gown texture,
or Of chiffon. for, however broad the
present styles. a rich lace bertha
would be quite unsuited to a debu-

and has a yoke design showing Re-
Nuisance bow-knots on a plain chif-
fon ground, and from each bow-knot
depends a bunch of berries en-
'broidered in silk. This yoke is round
and the blouse section of the waist is
set in with very fine shirrings and
tucks, while just above the girdle are
five deeper tucks shirred. The sleeve
is shirred just above and below the
elbow, ending in double graduated

A Dainty Afternoon Waist.
A dainty afternoon waist and one of
the few offered with a full length
sleeve, shows a mass of handwork. 1t
is fashioned from Japanese grass linen
of exquisite sheerness, and faStens in
the back so that the elaborate hand
work on the plain front is unbroken.
The yoke, built on irregular, waving
lines, is laid in very fine hand-run
tucks defined top and bottom with
narrow boullionne bands of the linen
Joined with fagoting in very fine
row bouillonnes and Valenciennes in
sertion showing a coin spot are all
Joined together with fancy stitches to
make the body portion. while across
the front are sprays of lotus leaves
and blossoms buttonholed on the fine
linen, cut out and appliqued upon the
blouse. The sleeve is split up the out
side seam to admit a soft. narrow
puff of the linen on which is set
graduated ruff1es of tucking, edged
with lace to match the insertion.
A Bodice of White Silk.
A bodice of sheerest white silk
shows marvellous handwork decora-
lions in fagoting around appliques of
tulips which run down the front of the
bodice, and from the shoulder seams
to the sleeve giving the effect of a ber-
tina appliqued upon cloth.
An extremely smart bodice for wear
with tobacco-brown broadcloth was

New York, Dec. 1.-THE rich old
grandfather, the generous bachelor
uncle, the absorbed but willing faith
err who visits the up-to- date toy shop,
will become fairly bewildered by the
gorgeous array of pIaythings spread
before him. He may indulge in a few
backward glances-mentally, of course
wherein his boyhood's supply of toys
will pass in puny array before his Wis
ion, and from this mental condition he
will, unless unusually strong minded,
lapse into a second childhood peculiar
only to the holiday season. He will
want to remain all day and make
friends with these beautiful toys. but
when he has recovered his mental
equilibrium. he must bring his logic
to bear and fit his selection to the
