the use of the brush of the ordinary
type are easily reached and properly

different brushes.

 Are you the lawyer?" he asked of call him Smith.
 T ann" said Smith.
 T want advice said the wanderer. T am in love with.a certain young wo- man. l love her very much and mean to marry her. She is engaged to me but I am afraid she thinks more of another man. I went to call on her the other evening and disturbed her as this other man was kissing her.
 That's rather an interesting state of things suggested Smith. But what can I do for you? cannot advise you in any respect regarding this man. Judging from what you tell me your marriage with this woman is some thing that will not happen
 Couldn't T. couldn't you-isn't it possible for me to have an injunction served against this man?"
 Smith tried to figure it out.

 Braid buttons and satin bands form the decorations on this stylish costume of dahlia-red zibelene taken from the Delineator. The jacket is of the Eton type, and may fall free or be connect ed with the girdle belt by drop blouse extension which affords added protec- tion and terminates at the side front seams. Seams to the shoulders assist in the adjustment and an 1880 collar extends to the lower edges at the front and back. It is supplemented by ep- aulettc capes. although their use, like that of the standing collar is purely q matter of choice. The bishop sleeves have their fulness confined in bands concealed by fanciful cuffs. Five gores shape the skirt. and choice is given of a long or medium sweep, dip or round length. An inverted boX-plait or q habit back may be introduced, and in the medium sizes the measurement of the lower edge is about four yards and ohe-half Tweed, homespun, kersey, vicuna covert and serge are available.
 Kitty: In reply to your question as to a pretty evening dress, mention of a very tasteful one recently worn seems appropriate. It was of the pal est pink satin crepe trimmed with sil- vered gauge combined with crystals. The gauge was arranged in q very wide girdle and at the bust were pendants of crystals softened by lace. On the skirt were lines of chiffon and silvered gauge flowers and the bottom of the skirt was finished by an applique de- sign in crystal beads.
 sophia: There has been very noticeable variety at the evening per formances of Parsifal since, while there was evident effort on the part of many to bring abou+ something elaborate in dress, yet a prominently wealthy wo- man wore her black hat to the finish.

 One of the newer dwellings in upper New York is a faithful carrying out of a design by little known French afchitect and built as his own produc ton. and one of the principle public buildings of the city owes it's best part to similar appropriation of a design that was published in an obscure mag azine.

TROLLEY CAR CUT
THE PAPER IN TWO.

Recorder L. w. Nelson of the Dor
ough of Thunderbolt was in Savannah
yesterday morning-and thereby hangs
a tale.
He didn't come because he really
cared to, but because Manager Nash's
electric company had no regard for
his rights as a citizen, or as an office
holder.
The Recorder had blood in his eye
when he went into a news depot and
purchased a copy of the Morning
News. Then he told of his grievances.
One of Mr.. Nash's trolley cars had
run over his paper and cut 1T in two,
mutilating one half so that it could
not be read. Most of the stories and
advertisements that Mr.. Nelson want
ed to read ran into the half of the pa
per that was destroyed by the car.
Since Recorder Nelson is lessee of
the Thunderbolt Casino, which is own
ed by the street railway company. it
is doubtful If he will enter suit
against the company. In the mean
time Superintendent of Transportation
Rhodes is preparing a circular letter
TO the motormen in which they are
admonished to be careful and avoid
running over and destroying copies of
the Morning News that are thrown off
the cars for the suburban subscrib-
ers.

The season is fast approaching when

PHOTOGRAPH TAKEN
OF CHINK PRISONER.

Preliminary Preparations Made for
Deportation of Jung Ling.
Upon receipt of orders from United
States Marshal White, Deputy Marshal
Joseph F. Doyle yesterday took Jung
Ling, the Chinaman held in the Chat
ham county Jail awaiting deportation
to the gallery of Photographer Wilson
and had a photograph taken.
Jung Ling made no objections and
went with the officer at once. He
seemed to enjoy sitting for the photo
graph, though he must have known
that it was the first move toward
his starting back for his home coun-
try. One of the pictures taken will be
sent to the commissioner at Valdosta
to be attached to the court records.
The other will be sent to the seaport
from which Jung Ling is to be de-
ported, where it will serve as means
of identification. The orders are that
the photographs are not to be re-
touched and that they are to be so
taken as to bring out any peculiarl-
ties of the subject.
No appeal to a higher court will be
taken in lungs case. The time for
the taking of an appeal expired on
Monday night and the attorneys for
the Chinaman did not see fit to act.
This means the Celestial must journey
back to his home country and that
never again can he come to the United
States.

he had pulled the box he started on a

occupants rushed to the windows to see
where the fire was"
When Patrolntan Halford, from the
street, explained the cause of the
sounding of the alarm, the occupants
