A sensation has been caused by the
fact that king Peter. OF Servia has ap-
pointed Lieutenant Colonel Mishltch as
Instructor TO the crown prince, says a
Belgrade correspondent OF the London
Pail Mall Gazette. 1t is well known
that Mishitch was one Of the principal
regicides and that he personally took
part In the assassinat ton of the former
king and queen, and the general opln-
lon is that he is hardly the man to set
a good example to the wild young
prince. 1t Is whispered, however. that
the king has given the matter due con-
sideration and that he would not have
taken such step had he not persuad-
cd himself that the prince can only be
controlled BY fear and that Mishitch ID
the only man that can inspire that SON.

The department has received many
samples of ''asbestus leaf" which does

at an even temperature and moisture
and are made into cigars, which are
fed to the machine. Should the cigar

The wrapper is placed on n cigar shap-

STYLES IN FOOTWEAR.

Colored Lenther Pumps and New Buf-

Pumps in welts and turns are much
seen. They come in both kinds of leath-

Shoe Retailer. SoIle are shown in
mems lines for use on full dress occa-
sions and for dancing purposes.
In addition to these In black stock,

shades as green, blue, red. pearl gray.
tan and white for women's wear at in
door dress functions. Their great popu-
larity during the past season has led
the dealers to look for some call for
them during the fall and winter for
house wear.
Button shoes for both men and wo-
men are much seen in the fall dis
plays in both the dull and shiny leath-
ers Those made of the latter stock
usually have the uppers of dull finish
ed leather with buttons of the same
kind to match.
The ''pidgin" last is the name of the
latest freak in mems shoes and is in
clined to be rather an extreme cut. The
inside edge Is cut almost straight while
the outside edge comes to a stop with
a practically square cutoff. which tends
to give it pigeon toe appearance,
from which Its name is taken. The
soles are heavy and quite extended,
which should not be especially desirable
for winter use, since extension soles ac-
cumulate so much dirt and dampness.
Goodyear welts in women's lines are
much seen, indicating that the dealers
look for continued call for heavy
boots for out of door wear. These are
mostly cut along the lines of mannish
lasts and are designed to be worn with
out rubbers, thing which women
have become accustomed to since the
introduction Of Goodyear welts in wo-
mems lines.
Custom lasts are still shown in mems
lines. some of them in patent leather,
but as they are first of all designed to
provide comfort for tender feet the
more porous feathers are the best sell
ers to those who can wear shoe Of
this kind.

RAISING BLACK FOXES.
Maine Farmers scheme to Procure
Valuable Pclts.


Valuable Pclts.
A Maine farmer who raises nothing
but foxes claims to have discovered
that the black fox is not a freak, and
he is proceeding to prove this theory by
mixing black fox from Ohio with a
red one caught in the Maine woods,
says the Worcester Telegram. From
the cross he has pair of fine black
foxes ten weeks old, and as these
twins are not the first he has raised the
same way he is confident that in time
he may be able to replace all the red
foxes on his farm and raise for the fur
market nothing but the finest blacks.
whose pelts sell for $500 to $500 each.
Judging from sales made in the past.
tho four black foxes he has now are en-
tered ON his stock list as worth $1,000.
and he feels rich. He has the foxes In
closed by wire fence sixteen feet high
and running down to the ledge so that
the sly rascals cannot dig out. He
feeds the animals and lets them have
the full run OF the farm. which looks
like a weed garden with few trees
growing in 1t, but pays n profit with
small outlay for labor.

The Secret Murder Of the III Fated

About the same period at which
Queen Caroline was earning notoriety
! for herself there resided in q small
! town in the north OF Germany a man
noted for his skill as a public execu
toner. Late one evening two men In
military uniform called upon this per
son and requested him to accompany
them, as his services were required at
some distance and would be literally
rewarded, but that he must consent to
be blindfolded. To this, after some de-
mur, he consented and entered the car
riage brought by the two officers. Ap-
parently they drove long distance,
and at last by the sound he Judged that
they had crossed a bridge and entered

very large sum OF money was given
him, with warning that he would do
well never to attempt TO solve the
mystery or tell Of that nights work.
