Double Tragedy.

Death OF Walter Niemann, % years
old, vice president Of the Niemann Table
Company, and probable death for Miss
Lucille Mcleod, 10 years old, and a
daughter of p. r Mcleod, president of
the Mcleod Iron Pipe Company, IS the
SEQUEL of quarrel between the couple
and a double shooting in a room at
hotel in Chicago early yesterday morn
ing. -
The couple went TO the hotel at 10
O'Clock last night and, ii is said, register
ed as civilian Adams and wife," The
shooting took place at O'Clock yester-
day morning, and when the policemen
broke in the door of the room they
found Niemann dying, with a bullet
wound in the back of his bead, and the
girl with a bullet hole IN her lett breast,
Niemann died yesterday afternoon.
Three months ago the engagement of
Niemann TO Miss Meta Fielder, daughter
of A. F. Fielder, was announced. Me
mann's relatives deny the assertion that
he had married Miss Mcleod in Mil
waukee. The exact circumstances OF
the shooting may never be knewp, as
Miss Mcleod, although conscious, re-
fuses to discuss the tragedy.

Fortunes Spent for Jewels.

Fortunes are being spent in the jewell
ers' shops by wealthy Americans and
Englishmen and women, who are max
ing extensive Christmas purchases IN
Paris. The craze is for the numerous
novelties made of lucky stones and loyal
amulets.
The Duchess of Marlborough has
bought a small collection Of sardonyx
ornaments. For Mrs. Astor the Ouch
ess ordered one on which an Gag lie is en-
grayed, while another, fer Lily, Ouch
ess of Marlborough, is a quaint beryl
pendant with Persian hieroglyphics sup
posed to have lucky influence.
Consuelo, Duchess of Manchester, has
been one of the largest buyers. A vase
of translucent enamel, yellowish green,
with base formed of group OF cupids
cut from pinkish onyx, is her gilt for
the Queen, while for her men friends
there are diamond and ruby studs and
links and gold cigar-hoiders with lines
of ine diamonds.
Another beautiful gift for the Queen
is that of the Marquise de Breteuil, who
was Miss Garner, an American. 1t is
a small pair of old ivory ornaments
representing groups of female figures,
arranged as electric-bell pushes for the
writing table.
The Duchess of Roxburghe, although
in deep mourning, has made few pur-
chases, including a pair Of Segres fig
ures and four small antique boxes in
Limoges enamel.

Demonstration at st. Pauls.

London's unemployed made a demon
stration at st. PauPs Cathedral yester-
day afternoon in half-hearted, hope
less and unusual manner. Only a few
hundred of them, with appropriate BAN
ners, went in procession from Traf ugar
square TO the cathedral, where they ar
rived dDring the progress of the service
and up the steps OF which they marched
singing the "Marsellaise. Here the
motley crowd was joined by contingents
from other quarters, and all, to the
number of some 1900, began filing into
the cathedral silently and espe,tfuily,
making an incOngruous picture in con-
trast with the fashionably dressed wor-
shippers. Such a scene has not been
witnessed at St. PauPs since twenty
years ago, when John Burns, now presI-
dent of the local government board, led
a similar demonstration to the cathedral.

Dimes King in Bathroom.


II was in the bathroom of the Castel-
lanes splendid house in Paris that they
entertained the King of Portugal on
Tuesday. The bathroom was turned 10
to a diuing-room for the occasion, the
great central tub was covered over and
the faucets we're made to spout as four
fountains from banks of flowers ii was
very effective, aud the marble walls,
ceiling and pillars were festooned with
blooms, making the chamber in which
Count Boni takes bis morning dip look
like Roman banqueting hall.
The society journals went into lyric
transports over the scene, but Americans
are laughing over the scene, but Amerl-
cans are laughing over the afiair--large-
ly because only three or tour of them
were invited.
Around the exquisitely appointed Ia
bles at the dinner stood iootmen innum-
erable, all splendidly liveried aud wear
ing old-time ceremonial swords, this last
detail feature not seen in Paris for just
a century. Count Boni, unlike Presl-
dent Loubet, had been careful 10 provide
for King Carlos's little manis, aud gor-
ceously-attired functionaries stood be-
hind the royal chair to remove the royal
glass every time the royal lips as much
as touched it.
The King had to hold court on the
great marble staircase. This was because
of the fact that the grand salon Is still

Grin Quickly Knocked Out.

"Some weeks ago during the severe
winter weather both my wife and myself
contracted severe colds which speedily
develop d into the worst kind Of Ia
grippe with all its miserable symptoms, ="
says Mr.. J. S. Egleston of Maple Land
ing, Iowa. "Knees and joints aching,
muscles sore, head stopped up, eyes and
nose running, with alternate spells OF
chills and fever. We began using
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, aiding
the same with dose of Chamberlain's
Stomach and Liver Tablets, and by its
liberal use soon completely knocked out
the grip"
1t is good plan to take dose of the
Tablets when you have cold. TLey

fetal when the system is congested by a

To Be a Politician.

An old German farmer, near La
Rose, had fine son of whom he was
justly proud. He decided to find out
the trend of the boys mind and adopt
ed novel method by which to test
him. Slipping into his sons room
one morning he placed on the table a
glass of whiskey, a silver dollar and
a Bible. Now" said he wen dot
poy comes in if he. takes dot tollar
he's going to be a beeznis man, if he
takes dot Bible he'll be a preacher,
but if he takes dat whiskey he's no
goot and is going to be drunkard. +"
Then he hid behind the door to see
what he would choose. In came the
boy, whistling, and walked right up
to the thble. He picked up the Bible
and put it under his arm, he put the
dollar in his pocket and picked up
the glass of whiskey and drained it
to the bottom and went smacking
his lips. The old German poked his
head out from behind the door and
exclaimed "Mein Colt, he vas gazing
to be a politician"

Shocking Stockings.

Il saw pair of those new skin
colored stockings for women the 9TH
err day" said a keen observer yester-
day, "or, to be more accurate, l saw
a part of pair. | understand an
attempt has been made to introduce
them IN Paris, but on this side, it
seems, there is a doubt as to whether
they can be made to go and | don't
wonder. Those | saw were being
worn at the time, and it is only be-
cause | am not affected with heart
disease that am here to tell the tale,
for the shock was certainly starting.
They are entirely different from the
fesh-colored' affairs seen sometimes
on the stage. and look exactly like
the real article, believe they come
in several different shades, so that
exact matches may be had. The
effect is not pleasing somehow. They
make you think OF the bare-legged
men you see at the seashore during
the bathing hour. However, sup
pose We can get used to anything"
AS a proof that he takes care of
the baby, man will point to the
candy spots on his clothes.
Our education was so limited that
we are unable to tell the difference
between ruffianism and college
spirit"
1t is not very complimentary to
lecturers, but it is fact that people
prefer good square meal to an in
tellectual feast.
When a good-looking man marries
a homely woman there is always
more wonder why than when a pref
ty woman marries an ugly man.
