Any trunk of pegimoid "a composition that
spurns scratches), bound with raw hide is very
excellent investment and is almost indestructible
Needless to say such combination presents a
very smart appearance.
The first sketch shows an imported model for
suit case that halls straight from Piccadilly.
The sides are oddly shaped, fitted with toilet
requisites, and when closed form square box
like case. The centre of the case-English new
comer-may be appropriated for any suitable
means. z..
The domestic suit cases enable these long fat
contrivances to serve a two fold purpose The
one shown if of walnut lined with MORE and
fitted with toilet articles with silver tops. Less
expensive models also fitted, and one may
purchase cases with little pockets that may be
filed according to personal needs.
The top of the inside cover in some cases has
placed under them; in this manner great deal
may be carried in the suit case that could in no
other way be accommodated.
THE DEEP CLUB" BAG TO THE FRONT.
The deep "cub" or the English travelling bag
is rapidly gaining admirers and more is being
sold, proportionately, than suit cases. The sides
are boxed and the top is soft or ,"Crush" to use
a professional term. In cowhide they sell for
81 80, l6inch size, and are very attractive.
Of course, these may be had in most any leath-
err but are particularly handsome and serviceable,
though admittedly expensive, in black walrus.
"A novelty on the market that is having ire
mendous following is an overnight bag which
retails from $1.5O to SIS, according to the size
and quality of leather employed. A sketch Of
this desirable travelling requisite is shown at the
top of the page.
There is amost surprising variety Of toilet cases
suited to all sorts of tastes and which are costly
or inexpensive, you please. Those Of leather,
such as black seal, lined with fine grain leather
and lifted with silver fittings reaches the climax
among the expensive ones. Cheaper ones are Of
leather with satin lining under nickel mounted
fittings, or the lining may be Of rubber, with
fancy stripe side showing Very good looking
ones are fashioned Of brown, black, dark green
and gray MORE with sections of same material,
and bound with silk braid These may be had
with or without the fittings. Less expensive

~7HE trunk and traveling-bag maker is a
wide awake man.
He's got to be so long as folks travel
tGsgSg1 and become crankier every year, de-
handing comforts and conveniences
such as our mothers never dreamed of in their
day of the cumbersome Saratoga.
The broad demands of this strenuous modern
existence has had most gratifying effect in slim
ulating the efforts of manufactures in providing
requisites best calculated to reduce the burden of
travelling, and at the same time offering service
able articles suited to all purses.
And it has required certain kind of genius
to duplicate in cheaper materials, many of the
ultra notions of the persistent globe-trotter,
who demands that the luxury of travel be re-
duced almost to science. .I.." ~
But the willy manufacturer has proved equal
to all emergencies and caprices of the tourist by

DAY OF LUXURIOUS TRAVELLING. ~
The costly wardrobes of actresses and society
women have been all but ruined in days gone by
on account of the lack of practical and available
means or caring for these perishable furbelows,
which IN many cases had their beauty literally
crushed out of them To add to the fears OF
miladi traveller a bottle of toilet water more than
once scandalously careened among the contents

Today, however, such dire apprehensions
need assail the travellers peace of mind, because
there are trunks aplenty in which such catastro-
phies are quite impossible.
For example, the trunks built on the new prin.
ciple are designed on the plan of bureaus, dress
ers, chiffoniers and wardrobes, the latter BEING
principally adapted to accommodate garments II

Contrary to the old fashioned trunk the new

and in perfect condition, and any desired garment

CONTEMPT OF COURT
SENSATION DURING TRIAL OF LEATHERwooD.
F. c. Bowman and Witness J. R. Coyie Clash and the Attorney Replies Tartly to Judge
 Weaver.

Birmingham, May 25.-(Special)-- Col. W. K Denson, P. G. Bowman. at- torneys, and J. B. Coyle. witness. em- ployed in the case against R. L. Leath- erwood. an attorney, charged with as- sault to murder, 1t being charged that he shot will Denson, were ruled for contempt this morning by Judge weav- CT of the Criminal Court, where the Leatherwood case is on trial.
 Bowman and Coyle were fined SIC each and Colonel Denson was assessed s1. The latter made full apology to the court. The Leatherwood case is being hard fought. More than once there have been some repartee engaged in between the attorneys. The trouble which came to decidedly exciting head today began yesterday. Mr. Bowman Is assisting the State. Coyle was on the witness stand and was cross-ques- toned hard by Bowman.
 The witness took some exception to questions put to him, and stated that MT. Bowman would not talk to him in that manner outside of the court.
 Bowman is said to have retorted that he would talk to him that way any where. Certain messages were deliv- cred to Bowman after court adjourned and later a discussion took place in the office of the court clerk where Coylt happened to be.
 judge Weaver took up an investiga- tion of the matter. before the jury was brought into the room and the fines mentioned were imposed. Bowman stated that the entire matter happened after court had adjourned, and he did not make apology. When asked why he had not come to the court if he com plained of remarks made about him, Bowman stated that he had no race horse with which to hunt up the court The solicitor of the county, H. P. Henin, expressed an opinion that the court should impose jail punishment. The next announcement of the day in the case was that one of the jurors was sick. It was finally decided to per- init the juror to rest on cot in the court room and the taking of testimony was resumed. The arguments promise to be lengthy. The case is attracting much attention. In addition to the plea of temporary uncertainty of mind, elf-defense is also claimed.
