Talking about expensive hats" said
a prominent New York hat dealer, ''the
most costly hat that was ever made
was presented to General Grant while
in Mexico in 1882. 1t cost 81 500 In
gold. 1t is now in the National muse
UNI at Washington. Panama hats used
to be frequently sold as high as $500
each. remember selling four hats at
that price in a single day in 1872, but
such hats are no longer to be obtained.
Such hats are still worn by the hidal-
gos In South America They are. not
made In Panama, but got the name be-
cause that city was formerly the great
est market for them. The finest hats
come from Peru. They are made Of
the fiber Of the pita or pineapple plant,
which Is as soft and pliable as silk, and
some Of them are SO fine that they can
be folded up and carried in ones vest
pocket"

county treasurer at time stipulated
by statute, he must, in the opinion
of the court, be guilty of malfeasance
of office. The statute of the state
of Washington expressly states that
Its officials shall be paid a stipulated
salary and that shall be compensa-
ton for all work done as such Of
fcials in their offices, The statute
also expressly says that all fees col
lected for duties performed by an
official. shall be turned over to the
treasurer, and there appears to be no
exception to this rule"
When Chief Waller was seen this
morning he said:
I, II have nothing to say regarding
the matter except, perhaps, that the
whole affair will be disclosed in case
of an indictment and trial. l shall
be willing to abide by the decision
OF IL good men in Spokane county,
and for the present the public should
be willing to wait"
Regarding his matter. Mr.. Leghorn

hours. I deny using county time or
county material in making these

privilege of copying official records in
this office. and l claim my right as a

of office hours.

tending to show that the chief had
collected SIS from each of two wom-
en- of the tenderloin and has not
turned 1T over to the city. The
jurors said in each case:
I'VE find that ii does not appear
from the books of j. d. Hinkle, po-
lice judge. that said sum of SIS was
paid to said Chief of Police Leroy
Waller. as aforesaid, nor any part
thereof has been paid to said ]. D..
Hinkle or to the city of Spokane"
To this Judge Poindexter replied
where a man Is the chief of police

titutes of this city, If he, after re-
ceiving such sums. turns them over

offense But where a man collects a
fine in the capacity OF his official
position. or under the guise OF a fine,
and fails to turn ii over to the city
as fine, he is, in the opinion of the
court, guilty of plain embezzlement.
If he collects the fine as an individ-
ual and converts il to his own use.
