THE FENCE
WILL STAND

Koblegard ct ais, trustee, vs.. Su-
san Hale Ell all, was the style Of a
case which was decided in Supreme
Court this week. That title sounds
interesting but behind it is one Of
the most important decisions the
court has rendered during this term.
At Weston, in Lewis county, the
members of the Methodist church
erected a handsome and costly
church editice and they did not APP
prove of the twelve foot fence which
Mrs. Susan Hale and her husband
erected on their property between
tn residence and the church.
The case was taken into the courts
in Lewis county and the case wa, de-
cided in favor of the plaintiffs who
appealed the case and Judge Cox
handed down The opinion Of the Su-
prcmc Court. The defendant is al
lowed to build a twelve foot fence if
she so desires, on her property, and
he bill was dismissed from the
docket, y.

NJ GARTYATTEMP7S
SUICIDE IN JAIL

Dr. McCarty, All inmate Of the
county Jail, attempted suicide by
hanging Wednesday evening. He
was in for disorderly conduct, the
result of the workings Of cocaine, 10
which he is addicted,
McCarty took off his coat, then
his suspenders and tied the latter to
the bath appliances in his cell, and
was in the act Of making moose of
them to place around his neck and
then make a plunge from an eleya-
ton, when Turnkey Ramsey entered
the corridor, saw what he was about
to do, rushed in, grabbed the sus-
penders from him and gently chas-
tised him.
The prisoner has been good ever
since and shows no further DISPOSE
ton to end his life. Ramsey's act Of
rescue was timely. Had he not APP
peared at that time, McCarty might
now be a corpse.
McCarty's home is at Point Mar
ion, Pa, but he has been residing
here some time.

The Organization Of a base ball

DESERVING RECRUITS.

The following leading editorial of
the Wheeling Register seems unlike
E TO prove helpful to recruiting Of.
ficors, though it may be intended TO
advise the young men Of the state,
who have inclination to- join the
army and navy:
"Another recruit deserted from
the navy has been arrested in Hunt
iigton, which makes the fifth caught
iii that town alone in the past two
weeks.
In view Of the growing number
of such assertions it may not be
amiss for the Register to repeat its
advice given some time ago to those
young men who are apt to become
cnamored Of a sailors or a soldiers
life before knowing what that life
really is with its hard and exacting
duties.
Most of the deserters in question
had GOT no farther, it appears, than
the United States Recruiting Ship
Franklin, where they were being
schooIed in their new duties, such as
climbing rigging and masts, tieing
all sorts of knots, learning the noble
arts O, cleaning, scrubbing, holy
stoniig, coal-passing, stocking, etc,
etc. But that was enough for these
recruits. Their visions Of lolling at
ease on snowy decks under soft
changing skies, with plenty to eat
and little to do we're most rudely
shattered at the outset. They took
French leave for home. But, alas,
only to find themselves il pagainst a
worse fate.

escapes nowadays and it is apt to go
vastly harder with him than if he
had manfulIy stuck to his bargain

DANCING QUESTION.

Dancing has been opposed to some
extent for years, hut whether 50
strenuously as it is now and evident
ly will be in the future is a question.
There is a concerted movement
among the churches to break it up in
The circles Of their membership. All
know that some Of the churches here
have taken special action on the mat
Ter, but none state the position OF
the opposition to it more clearly
than Catholic bishop, who takes
the latest shot at the dancing habit
as follows:
"'rhc world may sheer at such
teaching and call our denunciations
cxaggcmtions and unreasonable ex-
actions without solid foundation.
"Fhc silly girl sees no harm in go
ing to dances, until, like the unwary
butterfly that gets TOO near the
flames. she has the wings of her soul
singcd BY the flames Of impure love
aud her innocence has vanished for
ever leaving her to the dark pros
poets Of a ruined future, if not an
early grave Of shame.

TEA Ds@Ms

Nearly all walking suits have the
skirts plated in one way or another.
Very high, straight turnover collars
OF linen are worn with the tailor-made
dress.
Some of the new bodices have long
tails reaching nearly to the bottom OF
the skirt.
One of those Japanese tan-and-blue
purses is very fit to carry with a
blue suit.
The brilliantly colored little hats
of the winter are like jewels set atop

For short dancing frock there is

Tailored Walking Suit.

ladies' tailored walking suit of
dark blue cheviot is finished in strictly
tailor fashion, with machine stitching
and silk crochet buttons. The jacket
is tight fitting, closes at center-front
and has a mannish collar and turned
back reyers. The skirt is a nine-gore
model with extension plaits at each
seam and an under-folded plait at
back. Machine stitching and buttons
are used to carry out the coat design.
For this entire costume in medium
size eight and half yards of forty
six-inch material will be required.
Serge, panne or broadcloth are desir-
able materials to be used in the de-
velopment of this suit.

Another valuable addition to Italy's
treasures in medieval works of art
aas just been brought to light. In the
old church of Cireggio, near Omegna,
some internal repairs and structural
cleaning are being carried out. Among
the rest thick coating OF whitewash
has been removed. Fortunately, with
view to possible discoveries under
meath. this was done with care. with
the result that there have been found
six beautiful frescoes Of the best
period of Italian art. They are all by

Princess STYLE Improved.

In the lighter, more dressy linen
gowns, Princess styles are exquisite,
those lovely little lingerie gowns MAX
ing the plainest woman look her best.
For, unlike the severe Princess gown
the type that came out frst-unlike
any of the others of heavier materials
those of null or of handkerchief
linen and such soft delicate stuffs are
so full and betrimmed and beruffei
and generally fascinating that every
hint of severity of line is lost.
For that matter, there has been al
most revolution in the way of maxi
ing Princess gowns. Instead of only
two or three types of figure looking
well in them, dressmakers and dress
artists have juggled with the style
giving in an inch here, to take an ell
there-until almost any woman can be
made to look well in at least one style.

Spring Styles.

One notices that the spring styles
are coming bravely to the front, that
shott, jaunty little coats are taking
the place of the long loose or tight
fitting outer garment and that hats in
straw malines, chenille or lace braids
are beginning to replace the satin and
beaver shapes which have been deck
ing the windows and the women. One
pretty and springlike looking hat was
in modified edition of one of the
turned-up hats of the winter modes
The side brim rolled rather sharply,
the crown was rather round and high,
but the lines were all softened by the
little quillings of black maline net
which completely covered the entire
hat. The trimming consisted of a
wreath of small pink roses set close
together and without foliage. The un-
der part of the brim had a bandeau Of
pale blue tulle with rosettes of ribbon
to match.

ming on some of the most stylish hats
is one huge white aigrette Aigrettes
are always white in their natural
state, but this season they are dyed
in all colors; any are dyed in the
shaded effects. And it is needless to
say that wings are the favored trim
ming. In every fashionable shop you
will see that two-thirds of the hats
are trimmed with bird wings. Bird
wings, in combination with flowers
and with velvet ribbons, are used, and
sometimes wings are the only trim
ming employed. A woman can afford
wings when she cannot afford ostrich

Triumph of Diplomacy.

Some time ago a Boston man named
Curley was convicted of conspiracy
against the United States, he having
impersonated another man at a civil
service examination. Yesterday Cur
ley was elected to the Board of Alder
men by handsome majority, after
conducting a vigorous campaign"
from his prison cell. Still, perhaps
it doesn't make much difference
whether we elect our aldermen first
and then send them to prison or send
them to prison first and then elect
them.
Speaking of handsome majorities re-
calls story that recently came to me
from Colorado, where the women vote.
A certain local candidate at the No
vember elections was successful by a
majority of one vote. The next even
ing his friends gave him a reception
and he made a speech in which he in
advertently spoke of his handsome
majority" A little later one of his
women friends called his attention to
this slip of the tongue.
"f.h. but, my dear" said he, with
bis politest bow, you must remember
that that one vote was yours"

Checks for sprino Wear.

Dainty little checked suits are com
ing to the fore for spring and very
neat they look after the plain colo rs
of winter. The checks are for the
most part in blue and white and in
black and white, and the trimming for
them is braid. though one sees many
of these suits trimmed with taffeta
bands.
Judging by glance ahead at the
importations there will be many
checked suits trimmed with very mar
row red satin bands and with pipings
and with tiny little quillings and edg,
ings to form contrast to the checked
goods.

Plaid Dimities Much Used.

Plaid dimities are to the fore for
shirt waists and dresses and every
sort of thing. There is remarkable
variety in them. when you realize that
the largest plaid is something less
than two inches square. Between that
size and the tiniest of all (Which is
made of cords as closely set as possl-
ble) are plaids of every width, some
made by single cords crossing others
of a dozen cords that form band.
And the plain spaces seem sheerer
than ever by contrast.
