Men and Clever Women.

Men are said not to like clever wo-
men, but it is rather the woman who
thinks she is clever and who fiaunts
her knowledge on every possible and
impossible occasion that they dislike,
said the woman of the world. An en-
cyclopedia is hardly the thing one
would desire for a constant compan-
ion and now and then a man likes to
offer bit of information himself. A
man likes the woman who is cultured,
not book learned, who has assembled
information instead of swallowing 1t
whole. Only a raw youth will ever
complain that such a woman is toe
much of a bluestocking for him.-Ex

whole earth is borne by a pig belong

With his body across the threshold
of his room i'm the MaCkel rooming
house at 3451k East First street, George
Wright was found dying from a pull
monary hemorrhage shortly after $3.50
o'clock last night.
A few minutes before the grewsoine
discovery was made Mrs. Redaker, the
landlady heard Wright coughing and
choking. Thinking the man was In dis
tress she rushed upstairs and found him
lying i'm the entrance to his room with
blood flowing in streams from his
mouth and nostrils.
Frightened by the sight Mrs. Red
aker called to NJ. Macltcl. the owner
of the house, and the latter notified
the police. An ambulance was sent
to the rooming house and the dying
man removed TO the receiving hospital.
Before the ambulance cached the ceE-
trail station the man expired.

FORBIDS NOISY
DEMONSTRATION
CHIEF OF POLICE TABooS USE
OF FIREARMS
Hospitals Ask That Celebration Be
Made as Quietly as Possible.
Hope to Avoid the Usual
Series Of Accidents

New Years enthusiasm to the point
of discharge of firearms and rowdyism
will not be tolerated by the police and
detectives. Strict orders to arrest all
violaters of this rule have been issued
by Chief of Police Aubie and Captain
OF Detectives Flammer
No limit has as yet been placed on
the time in which the enthusiasts may
continue the blowing of tin horns and
the making of any other kind of noise,
minus rowdyism, but it is possible that
orders to keep the noise away from
hospitals in the city will be issued by
the police. The discharge of firearms
will be absolutely prohibited.
For several years the hospitals have
denounced the noise and many citizens
have complained. The use of firearms
has on several occasions caused acci-
dents, and in one instance the death
ot a man in this city during the cele-
bra tion of the advent of the new year.
The order issued by the police regard
ing the behavior of citizens on New
Years eve is the result of similar ac-
tion taken by the authorities In east
ern cities. In Chicago an almost
unanimous uprising against the noise
and discharge oG firearms has taken
place.
The complaints of the citizens is
based upon statistics showing that
the sound from the 10000 factories ex-
cluding that of locomotives and steam
boat whistles, if concentrated, could be
heard at a distance exceeding that of
the moon from the earth or more than
100000 miles. Tire movement found
footing through the complaints of
critically Ill patients in the many Chi
cago hospitals.

Judge Decides to Con-
suit Blackstone

Mrs. S. H. Ellis of 1866 West Twen-
against the management of the Berlin
dye works. which she says, ruined
her fine evening coat.
The suit for damages was brought
before Justice Pierce in the township
court and nearly the entire afternoon
yesterday was taken up with examin-
alton. The suit was brought in the
name of the w. II. Holmes law
agency and Attorney Samuel Barnes
Smith appeared for the plaintiff.
Shortly after the case was called
Attorney Smith placed a package on
the table and proceeded to undo it.
When the thing was unwrapped there
was not man in the room who could
have told what it was. 1t looked
scarcely bigger than a napkin and
small particles of lace waved majes-
tically from all sides.
Here is the coat, your honor" said
the attorney as he picked up the ar
ticle of wearing apparel as though he
thought he might break 1t and dis
closed 1t to the gaze of the court and
there on one shoulder, oh, horror of
horrors was tear in the lace stuff.

called to the stand and she gave evil
dence as follows:
II sent that evening cloak to the
Berlin dye works last April | had
worn it just one season and had paid
$65 for it. l had intended to have it
cleaned and then wear it this season,
as it was a good coat.
"I received it back about two weeks

The car, which had not completed the
turn at the corner, was thrown into a
line nearly parallel with South Grand
avenue, the front trucks taking the
Grand avenue tracks and the rear
trucks following along the West Seventh
street tracks.
The motorman felt the peculiar turn
of the car and instantly brought the
coach TO a standstill.
After several unsuccessful attempts
to back the car sufficiently to allow the
rear trucks TO pass over the switch the
car was moved to the necessary point.
ITpon examination of the trucks 1t was
found that the chains regulating the
play Of the trucks had been strained,
and after making a local fare run the
car was taken to the railway company s
shops for more thorough examination
and repairs.

received an insight into the mysteries
Of the styles for the season The ex-
pert testified that while the coat was
not the latest for this year that 1t
was "corking good garment and
entitled to more consideration than to
be rubbed around on the court room
table, where it might contract ink
spots and other things.
Expert Tells How
OSDOrne, Ine expert VINO cleaned the
garment, was then called to the stand
and gave an explanation of how it all
happened. 1t sounded something like
the liberty silk had had some kind of
a misunderstanding with the applique,
whereat there had been a fight which
resulted in the applique cross bucl<ing
the pongee and the whole landing a
solar pleXus on the chiffon.
Justice Pierce said he had been
thinking that all along, but that the
garment evidently had a tear i'm that
lace stuff on the shoulder.
Finally it was stated that acid was
put I'm the silk sometime ago when It
was bleached, about the time of the
founding of the San Gabriel mission
or the revolutionary war and that the
acid might have eaten away some of
the fibers of the silk during the past
many years and had thus made the
silk too fiimsy to hold the applique
whereat the applique had fallen off the
silk.
The judge said that it might be true
but he would see what Blackstone had
to say about it and then the attorneys
agreed to submit the case on briefs
1t is expected "a verdict will be re-
turned Tuesday.
